Everyone was as silent as cicadas in winter. They had never thought that Tang Yu would actually kill someone without saying a word! Someone screamed and turned to run, but a cold figure blocked the door. It was the robot that looked like a knight!
They immediately stopped moving. The scene of the robot defending Sebastian Shaw was still vivid in their minds. It could easily crush them with a finger!
"First, I want to remind you of your identities." Tang Yu turned a blind eye to the blood in front of him. He just sat on the sofa and looked at them coldly. "I am White King, one of the top leaders of the Hellfire Club. If you want to keep your position in the Hellfire Club, you can only rely on me. Otherwise, you will die … Think about Edward Backman … "
"Without us, you are just a commander without an army, right? Can't you be a little more polite to us? "someone said, trembling.
"A commander without an army? Hehe … "Tang Yu sneered and leaned back on the sofa without saying anything.
At this time, the CEO of White River Mining, who was standing behind him, stepped forward and took out a stack of documents. "According to the results of our exploration in the Permian Basin, we found a large amount of crude oil in the shale layer below the basin. This crude oil exists in the cracks of the shale layer. Normally, it can't be extracted, but Mr. Tang Yu has the technology to extract this type of shale oil. "
The actuary on the side also took out a document and said, "According to the preliminary investigation, the oil reserves in the Permian Basin's shale layer are more than 40 billion barrels. According to estimates, the actual reserves are more than 60 billion barrels. "
James, who used to be Edward's assistant, also stepped forward and said, "With the oil extraction industry as the core, we have officially established a group company. We have invested 100 million US dollars in advance and will soon be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The name of the group is Guardian Group! "
The scene suddenly quieted down. Everyone stared at Tang Yu, dumbfounded. Everyone present was an elite in the business world. They naturally understood what 60 billion barrels of oil reserves meant. This meant that in the next 50 or even 100 years, the Permian Basin would be one of the largest oil extraction bases in the world!
They wouldn't doubt the authenticity of this news because oil extraction was different from other financial industries. This was a real industry! This wouldn't be a bluff because once the news was released, they had to take out the actual oil. Maybe Tang Yu would brag about the reserves, but he wouldn't exaggerate too much.
What James took out was an official document from the US Department of Energy! This at least meant that the US government approved this reserve data! In other words, the oil contained in the Permian Basin alone was enough to make the Guardian Group that Tang Yu had just established become the top energy company in the United States and even the world!!
"So, this is the only chance I have in front of you. Don't think you can do anything. If I kill all of you, I can also make the Guardian Group the largest energy group in the United States. It won't be a problem to replace the Rockefeller family. Therefore, make a choice. I will dilute a portion of the shares in the Guardian Group to you. Whether you accept it or not is up to you, "Tang Yu said.
At that moment, James took out another stack of documents and walked down to distribute them to everyone. When they saw the documents, their faces turned extremely ugly.
"You are robbing us!! The price you are asking us to buy is higher than the price of the Standard Oil Company of the Rockefeller family!! This isn't the original shares. We are gambling!! Gambling that you can make it bigger than the Standard Oil Company!! "Someone stood up and shouted.
"I have given you the future. Whether you join me or get kicked out of the Hellfire Club, it is up to you." Tang Yu stood up and walked out the door. He turned around and added, "Oh right, the press conference will be held in two days. The whole world will know about the shale oil under the Permian Basin and the name of the Guardian Group. At that time, you won't have this chance. "
After that, he left without looking back.
…
Three days passed quickly. Tang Yu had been busy with his own business in New York. In fact, he had borrowed the power of the Hellfire Club and Edward Bachman to recruit a group of talents. Edward's sudden death gave Tang Yu an opportunity. He used what little money he had left to buy some of Edward's financial companies and help him operate the capital. Moreover, his investment in Luling Town had started to pay off, so he wasn't short of people.
He didn't suddenly develop the computer or robot industry. Instead, he started with the traditional energy industry. Plus, there were many small oil companies in Luling Town to begin with, so this started very quickly.
Shauna of Hans Real Estate was a strong woman. She and the Hans family behind her chose to stand on Tang Yu's side at the first opportunity and helped him build the oil project in the Permian Basin. Although the Hans family was less than an ant in front of the Rockefeller family, they were still the local tyrant in Texas. Tang Yu directly promised them 5% of the oil profits and completely tied them to his chariot.
And the most important thing was the previous group of senior members of the Hellfire Club. Tang Yu's previous prediction was right. The Hellfire Club used to be mainly controlled by Edward Bachman and Dennis Rockefeller. Both sides were fighting openly and secretly. And Tang Yu was once a core member of Edward Bachman's group. In addition, he had saved their lives from Sebastian Shaw, so they were originally very inclined to Tang Yu.
After he showed the huge value of the Permian Basin, except for a few stubborn people, the others took out a lot of money and even cashed out their properties to buy the original shares of the Guardian Group. Like the Hans family, they became one of the shareholders of the group. In a short period of time, hundreds of millions of US dollars were injected into the Guardian Group. And the economic and political connections of these people also gave great convenience to Tang Yu.
The counterattack of the Rockefeller family was inevitable. Since the end of the 19th century, their family had monopolized the energy market and made it a big goal to become an energy trust. They would never sit back and watch the rise of the Guardian Group. But through this series of operations, it gave Tang Yu the capital to fight against them!
The reason why Tang Yu very generously gave up the group's shares instead of firmly holding the entire group in his hands like in other worlds was because he needed to focus his energy on the Mutants. According to Tang Yu's plan, he must expand his business power through the Hellfire Club and directly influence politics! Therefore, the business war must be fought, but this was not what Tang Yu was good at. It was better to let others fight for him.
