When Feng Yu is waiting for the good news from the California Consortium, Ralph reported to Feng Yu that someone wants to meet Feng Yu.
This person is a Saudi Prince.
Saudi Arabia has more than 1,000 Princes. All of them have the right to inherit the King's power. But only a few of them have the right to be the King. Most of them only own a small oil field's shares, and their lives are about eating, drinking, and having fun.
In any case, most of them would not be able to reach a higher position, so they might as well put on the attitude of a carefree prince. This way, they would be able to live a little happier.
Some Princes do not have the right to inherit, but that does not mean their children do not have the right to inherit. Based on their rules, if their children perform well, they will also be able to reach a higher position.
This Prince is called Azban, and he is one of the more powerful Princes. But he is not the first in line to inherit the throne. He is not even in the top three, and he is considered wealthy. But compared to Feng Yu, he is a poor man.
"Ralph, why is Azban looking for me? What does he do? " Feng Yu does not have many business dealings with Saudi Arabia, and he does not invest in oil or natural gas. He only occasionally speculates in energy futures.
Even if someone knows that Feng Yu has the ability to be the banker, it should be someone more influential to contact Feng Yu. It should not be a Prince.
"Boss, the assets he inherited are mainly minerals and agriculture."
This is interesting. In Saudi Arabia, the main assets he inherited are not energy or chemical industries, and he is still one of the top in the list.
Saudi Arabia does not export food, but they do export fruits. Of course, they import more fruits.
They do not mine a lot of minerals, and most of them need to be imported. This is mainly because their mining techniques are average, and they did not invest much. They felt it is more worthwhile to invest in crude oil and natural gas mining.
Could it be that this Prince wants to cooperate with Feng Yu in the mining and agriculture sectors? However, Ralph should be able to make the decision himself, right?
Ralph continued. "Boss, he wants to cooperate with Rito Group in mining, smelting, etc. He also wants to cooperate with Beidacang Group in the import and export of agricultural products."
"Not only is he the owner of the largest agricultural and sideline business in Saudi Arabia, but he is also the largest in the entire Islamic country. If we cooperate with him, it will be beneficial to both Rito Group and Beidacang Group. "
Feng Yu looked at the big screen. "Yes, and then?"
Since the other party had taken the initiative to seek cooperation, and Ralph had not agreed to it, then the other party must have a request that they hoped to fulfill through Feng Yu.
Does he want to do business with Hua Xia, or does he have other ideas?
"He wants to be the Minister of Agriculture of Saudi Arabia and hopes that Boss can support him."
Taking this position was equivalent to giving up the opportunity to compete for the position of Crown Prince. The difference between a Prince and a Crown Prince was too great. In fact, he did not have much of a chance. There were too many people who were more outstanding than him. Even if the King and the Crown Prince were to die at the same time, there was still the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Petroleum, Minister of Mines, and so on.
However, did he find the wrong person? Feng Yu had nothing to do with the Saudi royal family, so he couldn't speak to them at all.
"Ralph, be more specific."
"The King of Saudi Arabia is not in good health. He is already eighty-five years old. Although they have enough money to ensure that he can receive the best medical treatment, the environment in Saudi Arabia is not suitable for him to take care of his health. "
"This Azban was originally favored by the King of Saudi Arabia, and that's why he was able to inherit a lot of mining and agricultural assets. But now, the Crown Prince has already been confirmed, and he is not close enough to the Crown Prince. He is worried that after the King passes away, he will not have the chance to rise to a higher position."
In Saudi Arabia, the higher one's position was, the more wealth one would have.
This person wants to confirm his position while the King is still alive. This is to prevent the King from passing away suddenly in the future.
"He wants to sign a series of long-term cooperation agreements with us as his political chips. He will import a large number of our products as returns. If these agreements can be signed, the revenue of both our companies will increase by at least 2%. "
2% might seem like a small increase. But if Wind and Rain Holdings and Taihua Holdings's huge assets are included, it will not be a small amount.
This 2% increase in profits is a goal that many companies cannot achieve in their lifetime.
"Also, he is one of the members of Alwaleed's business circle, and he might bring us more hidden benefits."
Alwaleed, known as the Middle Eastern Buffett, has invested in many world-renowned stocks and is also a Saudi real estate tycoon. But this is a Saudi Prince who was permanently deprived of his position in the upper echelons of Saudi Arabia. Now, he only wants to make money.
But there are also people who say that this Prince has helped Saudi Arabia in many secret transactions. In the future, he will definitely give him a chance to let his children return to the throne.
If it is Alwaleed, then Feng Yu is still interested in meeting him. He was wondering where the young Prince got so much power. It turns out that this Middle Eastern Prince is behind him.
"If this is the case, there is no need to meet me. You can discuss this with Liu Chuanzhi. Is it Alwaleed who wants to meet me?"
"Yes. They don't have much contact with Boss's circle, and that's why they contacted you through me."
Feng Yu supported his chin with one hand and knocked on the table with the other, slowly thinking about the pros and cons. If it is purely business, Feng Yu would certainly welcome it. But there are some political intentions mixed in, and this makes Feng Yu have to think carefully.
If this person can become the Minister of Oil and Mines, then it will be worth Feng Yu's help. It is only the Minister of Agriculture, and Feng Yu is not very interested.
But after thinking about it, it seems that he does not need to pay much. Also, there is another advantage of doing business with Saudi Arabia, and that is to do high-end marketing.
Food that even Saudi Arabia imports must be good stuff. Electronic products that even the Saudi Prince likes must be the best. In the eyes of many, the Saudi Princes buy the most expensive things, and they are so poor that they only have money.
"Okay, agree to it. But I hope he will come with Alwaleed. Which country will he choose to meet in?" Feng Yu will not go to Saudi Arabia, and those two will not come to Hua Xia.
"They hope to meet in Europe. It depends on Boss."
"Okay, then let's meet in England. Inform them that I will go to London in three days. I hope we can reach an agreement on the same day. " He has to remind the other party to give good conditions. Otherwise, the negotiation will take too long. Feng Yu can afford it, but can Azban?
