Chapter 152 All Eggs In 1 Basket?

After returning to his company, Luo Maoyuan's expression was dark and brooding. He stormed into his office and picked up an exquisite teacup, which he immediately threw to the ground. His subordinates were silent, fearing to speak and keeping their heads bowed.

Word quickly spread throughout the Risheng Group about their failed bid, with many employees quietly discussing the news.

"Yanguo Offshore Oil Group has given 150 million barrels of crude oil transportation business to Global Group," someone said.

Another employee chimed in, "I heard that too. But how did we lose to Universal?"

"I know that company, and they have strong capabilities, with several big ships," replied a third employee.

The discussions continued for a while, but fortunately, Luo Maoyuan had not overheard them.

Otherwise, his anger would have been even more intense. Known as the "Ship King" of the Yan Kingdom and the leader of a significant company, he couldn't accept such a massive failure. He was determined to make Universal Group pay the price.

"We can't let it go. Universal must pay the price!" declared someone cautiously.

"Boss, we have suffered such a big loss; we must take revenge and make Universal spit out what we have eaten," another said.

Together, they plotted how to deal with Universal, but at that moment, Luo Maoyuan's phone rang. It was a report on the stranded "Anton" ship and how it needed to be towed back for repairs, but the price was high, and they were suspected of taking advantage of the situation.

Luo Maoyuan had no choice but to agree, "The more expensive, the better."

With "Anton" stranded in the Indian Ocean, Luo Maoyuan finally heard some good news.

"Boss, the fishing nets on the propellers of our New Fortune have almost been cleaned. In a few hours, our ship will be able to sail again," one of the workers said.

Hearing this, Luo Maoyuan felt a glimmer of hope. He and his subordinates resumed plotting how to deal with Universal.

Shortly after returning to his office, Liu Yong began browsing the information related to Risheng Ocean Shipping Group when his colleague Hu Shijun walked in excitedly.

"Brother Yong, I heard you were back and rushed here as soon as I could," said Hu Shijun.

Liu Yong's face lit up as he responded, "You must have heard the news then."

"I sure have! I never thought we would emerge victorious and secure the transportation business for 150 million barrels of crude oil," exclaimed Hu Shijun.

With this successful venture, Liu Yong felt a sense of comfort and satisfaction, "With this transportation business, we won't have to worry about idling around."

Hu Shijun suggested, "Brother Yong, I believe we should be more aggressive in entering the crude oil transportation market. Perhaps we should consider purchasing a few more large ships."

Liu Yong waved his hand proudly and responded, "You can discuss this matter with Mr. Qiu. I have absolutely no objection to purchasing a few more ships."

The underlying message was clear - Liu Yong wanted to avoid being bothered with trivial tasks such as buying a boat. His pride was evident, and very few bosses in the Yan Kingdom could match his confidence level.

For other ocean shipping companies, purchasing many giant ships, such as a 100,000-ton vessel, would be a significant investment, costing between 30,000 and 50,000. However, for Liu Yong, such trivial matters were beneath him.

Yanguo Petroleum Group and Risheng Group are two companies that operate in the crude oil transportation industry.

Even though Risheng Group keeps its operations secretive, Yanguo Petroleum Group still found out about Risheng's three major oil tankers anchored on the sea.

Upon hearing this news, the vice president overseeing crude oil import procurement was alarmed and immediately took action.

"Leader, this matter is absolutely true. We have checked it. One of them has not yet arrived in Malacca and is still in the Indian Ocean," the vice president reported.

"It's really like this!" the leader exclaimed.

The vice president thought for a long time and said, "We can't put all our eggs in one basket. At present, what is the proportion of Risheng Group in our crude oil transportation?"

"Leader, they used to account for about 80% and were our most important transportation contractors. After Universal Company joined, the situation has changed. The proportion of Risheng Group has dropped a bit, and it is currently less than 70%," the vice president replied.

The vice president said without hesitation: "Give more business to Universal Company, and Risheng's proportion must be reduced to less than 50%. For details, you can talk to Universal Company and inform Risheng Group."

"Okay, I will handle these things myself," the leader replied.

Meanwhile, the good news kept coming for Universal Company.

First, they won a transportation contract for 150 million barrels of crude oil from Yanguo Offshore Oil Group. Then, Qiu Yang, on behalf of the company, received a call from Mr Guan of Yanhuang Petroleum Group offering them a transportation contract for 30 million barrels of crude oil.

"Boss, there is great news," Qiu Yang said excitedly when he called Liu Yong.

"Have you already signed a formal contract with Yanguo Offshore Oil Company?" Liu Yong asked.

"Boss, the contract will be signed in the afternoon. What I want to talk about is another matter," Qiu Yang said.

"Oh, tell me, what kind of good thing is it?" Liu Yong asked with interest.

"Boss, Mr. Guan of Yanhuang Petroleum Group called me just now and asked me to go to his office tomorrow morning. There will be 30 million barrels of crude oil transportation business for us," Qiu Yang reported.

"This is a good thing. Go over and have a good talk with him tomorrow, and let me know if you have any results," Liu Yong replied.

"Okay, boss," Qiu Yang said.

Hu Shijun was also present in the office and overheard the conversation. "Brother Yong, Lao Qiu called. What a good thing, you are very happy," he said.

Liu Yong briefly explained the matter.

Suddenly, Hu Shijun seemed happier than anyone else!

"Great, this is really exciting. From this point of view, we really need to order a few large ships," Hu Shijun thundered and shouted loudly.
