Chapter 1555 Will Not Stud
There is a well-known Genting Casino in Queens, New York City. It is very large and has 32 floors. The higher the bet, the bigger the bet.
If you want to enter the 32nd floor, those who come to gamble must have at least 5 billion US dollars in gambling.
Therefore, although the service here is the best, the casino only opens once or twice a year at most, and the guests are basically those oil tycoons from Arab countries who like to gamble.
This is where Terence Bessie brought Xiao Yunhai.
In fact, Xiao Yunhai only carried a check for five billion dollars.
He was annoyed at Terrence Bessie's spoiler this morning and wanted to teach him a lesson. Otherwise, he wouldn't agree to come with him.
However, he is not a bad gambler. If there is any way to win, Xiao Yunhai will naturally not be polite. If the five billion dollars were lost, Xiao Yunhai would get up and leave.
When Terence Bessie and Xiao Yunhai walked into the luxury casino, there were already quite a few people inside.
A middle-aged man wearing a headscarf and Arabic clothes saw Terrence Bessie, stretched his arms, and said with a smile, "Terence, we meet again."
Terrence Bessie hugged him and said with a smile, "Mr. Aboud, I remember the last time I played here, I lost a full $63 billion to you. This time I'm here for revenge. ."
Aboud laughed and said: "Recently, our country has restricted oil exports, which has caused me a lot of losses. This time I did not bring cash, but I brought an oil field worth trillions of dollars. It depends on whether you can win."
Terrence Bessie's eyes lit up and said, "What oil field?"
"Saudi Qawar oil field. You know I own 32 percent of it," Abd said.
Since both sides spoke English, Xiao Yunhai heard it clearly.
The Garwar oilfield is famous in the world, with recoverable oil reserves of 154.7 billion barrels and recoverable natural gas reserves of 2.424 trillion cubic meters, making it the largest oil and gas field in the world.
Only after decades of exploitation, more than half of the crude oil has been exploited, and there are still a lot of natural gas reserves. At current prices, the 32 percent stake is worth at least $3 trillion.
The greed in Terrence Bessie's eyes flashed away, and he said, "Mr. Abode, your price is too high. Come, let me introduce you, this is...
Aboud smiled and said, "If I don't even know Mr. Xiao, the richest man in the world, wouldn't it be too ignorant. Hello, Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Yunhai shook hands with him and said with a wry smile, "Don't say anything about the richest man in the world. Compared with you all, I'm nothing at all. Haha, I really don't understand what's going on with Time Magazine? It's only 100 billion US dollars, and it actually ranks me as the richest man. This error is really too big."
A trace of disdain flashed across Terrence Bessie's face, and said, "Time Magazine is nothing but the mouthpiece of the American government. There are no less than 30 people in the world with assets exceeding one trillion dollars. It's just that their names will not appear in Time Magazine. That's it. Like Mr. Aboud, in addition to the Ghawar oil field, he also owns several other areas. The assets of these oil fields alone are at least five trillion US dollars. And Saudi Arabia has two or three oil similar to Mr. Aboud. Tycoons, not to mention the royal family.
"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I see. If my assets don't exceed one trillion, am I not eligible to come in?"
Terence Bessie said: "That's right. Mr. Xiao, let me introduce you to the others. This is Akiramu, also an oil tycoon from the Arab world. This is the director of the British Purcell Petroleum Company. Mr. Joseph."
Xiao Yunhai shook hands with them politely, and exchanged greetings.
Only today did Xiao Yunhai realize that there are too many rich people in the world. When he was just starting out, Xiao Yunhai felt that David Steer was already outrageously strong, but compared with the trillionaires like them, he was undoubtedly too far behind.
Terence Bessie asked, "Are the few of us here today?"
Aikaila shrugged and said, "They were all scared by the previous bets that were as high as hundreds of billions of dollars, and there are only a few of us left. Mr. Bessie, I'm glad you invited Mr. Xiao over. "
Terrence Bessie said: "Then let's take our seats. It's the old rules, play stud. Mr. Xiao, is it alright?"
The other three looked at Xiao Yunhai in unison, Xiao Yunhai said with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, I've only seen Stud in the movie, I haven't really played it in reality. In this way, you tell me the rules, I'll experience a few first. , it doesn't matter if you win or lose, what do you guys think?"
Joseph said: "No problem. This thing is actually very simple. You can learn it in just a few hands."
Everyone else agreed.
Aboud smiled and said, "How much chips can be exchanged for 1% of the shares of Garwal Oilfield, please help me calculate?"
More than a dozen economic experts standing next to them started to count with calculators.
In this casino, there are dozens of service personnel alone, all of whom are excellent financial personnel, lawyers and so on.
A minute later, the croupier in charge of the game said, "The profit can reach 65 billion US dollars. According to the rules, only 80% of the cash can be exchanged, which is 52 billion US dollars."
Aboud snapped his fingers and said, "No problem. This is the power of attorney that I have prepared a long time ago. Let's take a look."
Ai Kaila, who was next to him, said: "I exchanged 6% of the Meira oil field for a bargaining chip of 320 billion US dollars. It should be no problem for you to help me calculate it? Aboud, it is only 50 billion US dollars, isn't it? Too little?"
Abud took out a stack of materials from his bodyguard and said, "Here is the blank power of attorney for the shares of Gawar Oilfield, Aikaila, if you have the ability, you can win it. However, I think you are not The one who does business. Last time you lost to me a small oil field worth 480 billion US dollars."
Xiao Yunhai, who was on the side, heard that Aboud actually described an oil field worth 480 billion US dollars as a small oil field. He couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Akailam and Aboud seem to be in conflict. When they talk, they compete against each other, and neither will let the other.
Afterwards, he even spoke Arabic with excitement, which made Xiao Yunhai feel depressed for a while.
If it wasn't for the persuasion of Joseph and Terrence next to him, maybe the two of them would have fought.
Five minutes later, the croupier said: "Mr. Aikalam, I'm sorry, after careful calculation, 6% of the profit of the Meira Oilfield is about 360 billion US dollars, which can only be exchanged for 288 billion US dollars."
Aikailamu waved his hand and said, "Then exchange it for me. Everyone, in today's game, I hope that your gambling capital will not be less than 100 billion US dollars. If you don't have it, please leave."
Joseph took out a cigar and said, "I have no problem."
Terrence Bessie smiled and said, "I also have no problem. Mr. Xiao, how about you?"
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "I only brought five billion dollars. I'm sorry, everyone, you gambled too much, I'd better go."
Terrence Bessie said: "Mr. Xiao, everyone knows your net worth. It's only 100 billion US dollars, so why spoil everyone's happiness. If Stud is only played by four people, it will be too boring."
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said, "Okay. Mr. Aboud, since you have so many share authorization letters, you can lend me 100 billion yuan. How about I give you an IOU?"
Aboud smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao's reputation is world-renowned, of course there is no problem."
