Born In England

Chapter 184 Rockefeller's Attention

"Long Live in England ()"

A week later, Li Lin had asked someone to register an oil refining company with the US emperor!

It is a branch of Lee's Gasoline Company.

Since Li Lin has manufactured a batch of refining equipment for thermal cracking process in advance, as long as the company registration is completed, the equipment can be installed after the equipment is shipped over! It can definitely be put into production within half a year.

...

US emperor.

Standard Oil Company headquarters.

The old Rockefeller, who was over 60 years old, sat in a chair and listened to a report from a marketing manager.

Today's old Rockefeller plans to retire at the end of this year.

Give some things to the company's confidantes and his own son to manage.

The marketing manager Garfiel looked at the chairman in front of him and said respectfully: "Mr. Chairman, recently I discovered a rapidly developing oil refining company in the west! Its name is Li's Gasoline Company, which specializes in The sales of gasoline, other kerosene, paraffin, etc. are mediocre, but gasoline already has the potential to monopolize!"

As soon as these words came out, Old Rockefeller's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked with a hint of interest, "What's the specific situation?"

To be honest, currently their company's oil refining block market share exceeds 84% ​​in the world!

Are there new companies that have the potential to monopolize?

This made him a little unbelievable!

"Yes, this company started to open an oil refining company in Germany a few years ago. After a few years, it currently has 70% of the gasoline market in Germany, and France has also occupied 30% of the gasoline market. Aww The fierce country also occupies 10% of the gasoline market, Italy also occupies 8% of the gasoline market, goose country also occupies 17% of the gasoline market, England occupies 10% of the gasoline market... "Garfiel reported.

"What? Occupied 70% of the gasoline market in Germany?" Old Rockefeller was shocked when he heard this.

Looking at the data above, it does have the potential for monopoly in the gasoline field in the future.

So far, their company's most profitable product is still kerosene. After all, kerosene is a huge consumption for lighting lamps.

Although gasoline has developed rapidly in recent years, there is no way to replace the dominance of kerosene for the time being.

But now with the popularity of electric lights. Electric lamps have rapidly shrunk the market for lighting oil.

Therefore, the old Rockefeller is also very optimistic about the gasoline market in the future.

In particular, the company was urged to increase investment in the development of gasoline products.

In the past two years, he didn't care much about the company's affairs, mainly because seven or eight years ago, he began to expand his tentacles to the excavation and transportation of iron ore, and began to conflict with Carnegie, paying attention to some internal affairs of the company The speed is not as much as before. I didn't expect that Li's Gasoline Company would pop up all of a sudden!

"Yes, in addition, the market shares of France, Italy, and England do not seem to be large, but the main reason is that they have only been in the market there for more than a year. As time goes by, they will definitely increase sharply, and even Form a monopoly!"

"What is the reason for this new company to do this?" Old Rockefeller asked sullenly.

"A new type of oil refining technology! I sent people to investigate it. It is called thermal cracking process. The oil yield rate is 40%, which is double that of the traditional one! The other party has won a lot of market share through the price of gasoline." Garfiel explained.

"That's how it is! It depends on the market share of multiple channels of technology." Rockefeller was relieved after hearing this.

For this new opponent, he has the best way to deal with it.

"Alright, let's send someone to contact the boss of this company. We want to acquire the thermal cracking technology we are dealing with to our company!" the old Rockefeller said.

"Yes, Mr. Chairman, I think the same way." Garfiel agreed with a smile.

In the face of huge capital, most of the new technologies will never be in the hands of the founders.

In the face of huge capital, the founders are just leeks.

Batch after batch were cut.

...

Singapore.

That's right.

Li Lin has returned to Singapore.

He plans to go to the United States in two months.

It will be a few months later to go there, and the refinery there should be completed, and he plans to develop the company's opening and sales channels himself.

"Honey, a telegram from the headquarters of Lee's Gasoline Company in Deguo." Daphne walked in with a telegram.

Now she has been pregnant for half a year, and her lower abdomen has bulged.

"Didn't I let you raise your baby with peace of mind? Why do you still do these trivial things?" Li Lin said distressedly.

"We don't have any habit of raising babies here. I have nothing to do every day, and I'm bored." Daphne said softly.

"Okay." Li Lin reluctantly took the telegram and read it.

The telegram read: Standard Oil Company wants to buy his Lee's Gasoline Company, and that thermal cracking process technology!

The quotation is not very high, only 3 million pounds!

"I didn't expect to be noticed by Rockefeller!" Li Lin frowned slightly.

He knew very well that after the oil refining industry became bigger, he would definitely have to deal with this oil tycoon, but he did not expect that he would finally come.

"Hehe, you want to buy Lao Tzu's company for three million pounds?" Li Lin curled his lips.

Li Lin ran directly to the telegraph room, sent a telegram to the company, and refused to buy it! At the same time, let the company's top management over there increase their reports on the company's current situation. He knows that the Standard Oil Company will definitely not let it go.

The opponent has already taken aim at his technique!

Especially this old Rockefeller, the first-generation oil tycoon, with vicious means, is a bloody old cunt!

In the previous life, many people were very impressed with this oil tycoon.

The old Rockefeller effectively defeated his competitors by cutting prices, sending money to nobles, threatening the railway industry, cutting off the necessary consumables (such as tank cars, oil drums, and oil pipes), and acquiring bankrupt companies. In addition to efficient competition methods, another element of his success is the way to win over the enemy. After defeating his opponent, Rockefeller would often propose a settlement to the opponent, and offered to buy the opponent's capital at a price much better than the market price. If the other party refuses, he will force the other party to go bankrupt and grab the capital at a low auction price. This kind of coercion and lure with reasonable conditions has caused many opponents to compromise peacefully, and later even became important cadres under his banner or entered the board of directors.

Secretly, I don't know how many competitors have been assassinated!

If someone else had this thermal cracking process technology, he would definitely be eaten to death by this oil tycoon.

But now it's Li Lin.

hehe!

Then at that time, it is necessary to take a good look at your wrists, and even consider turning the tables on the oil industry!

After all, he is also planning to enter the oil industry!
