If it is 200,000 to 300,000 tons of crude oil, he can drive it in one boat. This small business is not attractive to a big boss like him.

However, he naturally would not say what he was thinking, after all, what he saw was a shopping mall figure of the same level as him.

"If a super-large crude oil transport ship is full, I should need hundreds of them." Su Cheng said with a smile, his tone very relaxed.

"What? Hundreds of ships?" The King of Shipbuilding stood up suddenly.

If hundreds of super-large crude oil transport ships come to transport, the business alone will be worth hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

There are currently many ships under their Global Shipping Group that are empty and will lose money if they have no work.

"Mr. Bao heard it right. I need a lot of super-large crude oil transport ships to transport crude oil for me." Su Cheng said with certainty.

"As far as I know, Mr. Su's Tuen Mun oil base is still developing, why do you want to buy so much crude oil?" asked the ship charter king curiously.

If you buy crude oil to refine it, it is unreasonable. Because if you buy so much crude oil, the refining equipment at the Tuen Mun Petroleum Base has not been installed well. Moreover, even if the crude oil is stored in an oil storage tank, it is usually only stored for three years. Therefore, the charterer is very curious about what to buy so much crude oil for Sucheng.

Crude oil is exposed to direct sunlight and large-scale exposure to the air will cause the light components inside to evaporate rapidly, leaving only the most difficult bitumen to utilize in the end.

The infusion of rainwater will also cause microorganisms to breed inside the crude oil and completely deteriorate. At the same time, it is necessary to maintain the internal low temperature to prevent flash explosions.

Therefore, the simplest requirement for crude oil storage is to be closed as much as possible.

Even if it is stored using oil storage tanks, it is usually only stored for about three years.

Therefore, the ship charter king could not understand what to do if Sucheng bought crude oil on a large scale.

"Because I think there seems to be signs of a crisis in the crude oil market, I want to take a gamble. Should the ship charter king also stock up?" Su Cheng said with a smile.

Anyway, Shen Bi and others knew the reason why he bought crude oil, so he didn't care about telling the reason to the charter king.

"Well, I still can't. I have to spend time continuing to compete with Jardine Watanabe in Hutchison Whampoa." The charter king said with a smile and shook his head.

In fact, he simply didn't believe that an oil crisis would occur.

Because the orders of his crude oil transport ships have been relatively stable during this period and there is no possibility of a crisis at all.

Moreover, after experiencing the oil crisis in 1973, he did not see what signs are similar to those at that time.

"That's a pity. I hope Mr. Bao will not spread the news. I can only say that with a character like Mr. Bao," Su Cheng smiled.

"Mr. Su, please rest assured, I am a strict person!" The ship charter king laughed.

"I will definitely buy crude oil, but I am currently facing a problem, that is, I don't know where to buy crude oil. I have initially decided to choose a partner among the four oil-producing countries, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the UAE and Iraq. Does Mr. Bao have any suggestions?" Sucheng continued to ask.

"Our group's oil tanker business is spread all over the world, and these four countries are important partners of our group. I wonder what Mr. Su has to ask?" The ship charter king asked.

"Of course, the lower the price, the better. I need a partner who can give the best price." Su Cheng said directly.

"The current international crude oil price is basically stable at 12 to 13 US dollars per barrel. For example, if you look for it carefully, you will definitely find a partner with considerable discounts. However, I do not recommend Mr. Su to contact these four countries, because they are all OPEC members, and the crude oil price must comply with international oil prices. For non-OPEC countries like Maple Leaf Country, Mexico, and Brunei, the prices are easy to negotiate." The charter king thought about it and gave his own suggestions.

He also didn't advise Sucheng not to invest randomly in crude oil, because Sucheng is a businessman of the same level as him, not his junior, and everyone has their own considerations.

"Then can they alone collect more than 100 million barrels of crude oil in a short period of time?" Su Cheng asked.

"It is basically impossible. Mr. Su, more than 100 million barrels of crude oil, is equivalent to the production of a major oil-producing country in two or three months. If Mr. Su wants to purchase so much oil, he can only buy it in multiple countries." The ship charter king said directly.

It seems that it won’t work if you want to buy crude oil in the same place.

Su Cheng found out that he had really found the right thing to come to find the ship charter king this time.

The charter king's familiarity with crude oil countries was able to give him a lot of help.

"Why don't you know what Mr. Bao has to do with the leaders of these oil-producing countries?" Su Cheng asked.

"If I go to their country, I will be a guest of honor, and the supreme leader of their country will receive me personally." The boat charter king said with a smile, his tone as if this was a very ordinary thing.

Su Cheng didn't think it was the King of Chartering Boats who was bragging about this.

In his previous life, let alone the world's top richest people like Bill Gates and Buffett, even the domestic two horses will be received with high standards when they go to some small and medium-sized countries.

The King of Ship is the world's number one King of Ship. With this title, it can scare many people.

Moreover, he has been in business for many years and has a very high reputation internationally.

Sucheng is just a new rich man who has risen recently. It is indeed known to everyone in Xiangjiang, but he is not well-known abroad, so he will naturally not receive such treatment when he goes abroad normally.

"The King of Shipbuilding, I'll ask you something." Su Cheng said.

"Mr. Su, please tell me, I will definitely help if I can help!" said the ship charter king.

"I hope Mr. Bao can help me pass on the news that I am preparing to purchase a large amount of crude oil to the leaders of various crude oil producers, whether they are OPEC members or non-OPEC members. After the cooperation agreement is negotiated, I will hand over the crude oil transportation business to Mr. Bao." Su Cheng smiled.

This is equivalent to a transaction. If you help me with the business, I will hand over the business to you.

Win-win cooperation!

"Okay, since Mr. Su trusts me, let me do this. I have been operating in crude oil transportation for 18 years and have good cooperative relationships with various crude oil producers. I can help you count the amount of crude oil available for sale in various places in as little as one week, but the price will be discussed by Mr. Su." The ship charter king said directly.

Helping Su Cheng is just a little hard work, which is to give his own Global Shipping Group a job, so why not do it!

You should know that the current global shipping industry is already developing towards the direction of crisis. For their Global Shipping Group, at least half of the ships have not started construction, otherwise the ship charter king would not have started selling their own ships.

He chose to let Su Cheng talk to avoid making Su Cheng think that he wanted to be an intermediary to take a commission from those oil-producing countries.

"Okay, then I'll work hard on Mr. Bao. If the ship charter king is willing to help, please help me to keep the price to the lowest level. I hope to buy this batch of crude oil at the lowest level. Once the agreement is completed, I will sign a contract with Mr. Bao immediately and hand over the contract for transporting crude oil to you!" Su Cheng said with a smile.

The chartering king wanted to avoid suspicion, but Su Cheng felt it didn't matter. After all, if he had this connection, it was normal for him to earn some introduction fees in the middle. Moreover, the price of crude oil was relatively transparent, so he couldn't make much money even if he wanted to.

Just like those salesmen, almost all have gray incomes, and the boss still turns a blind eye.
