True fragrance is the essence of human beings. No matter poor, rich, nationality or race, anyone is potentially a true fragrance monster.

The same is true for the people of the Cott family. Although they expressed their attitude so righteously before, they even publicly shouted in the media that they would defend their own shale oil rights and would never bow to Walker for the sake of their own, but the result did not seem to be so firm.

Walker firmly implemented Zhou Ming's guidance strategy of "joining everyone to quickly promote the concept of shale oil", and among these everyone, the Kurt family naturally also included.

Because of this, when Walker received a new round of financing from Rockefeller and Morgan, he quickly turned his attention to the Cotter family. After Walker directly issued a cooperation application for shale oil project to the Cotter Group, in just a quarter of an hour, Walker received a reply from the Cotter family, saying that they were very willing to accept cooperation with Walker.

This result was expected by Walker, because with the rapid growth of the concept of shale oil, it has actually affected the traditional oil industry. The most intuitive manifestation is on crude oil futures. In the more than half month when shale oil has skyrocketed, crude oil futures prices have fallen from the initial fifty dollars, and have fallen below the forty dollar mark.

As the Cott family with the oil industry as its core, it naturally suffered the most severe impact. Moreover, Kansas was originally the center of the United States, and the profit of storing crude oil was also a very important source of interest for the Cott family. But now this advantage has become a bomb. With a massive amount of oil in hand, the Cott family is not to sell or not, and they can only watch themselves lose money.

No capitalist is willing to accept the losses, and the Cote family also hopes to find a way to make up for it. The most suitable one is undoubtedly shale oil.

It’s just that due to face, the Cotter family cannot propose it themselves, otherwise wouldn’t it be a slap in the face of the previous practice of kicking Walker out?

But on the contrary, it would be fine if Walker proposed it. Even Walker, who was kicked out of his family, still hopes to "return to the family", which is very respectable even if he creates a project like shale oil.

This is true. Later, when Walker really signed a cooperation agreement with the Cote family, the Cote family immediately went to the media to publicize that their shale oil technology was more advanced and the quality of the mining was better and more efficient, so that the Shale Oil Association took the initiative to seek cooperation.

The Cote family actually has two meanings. Needless to say, the first layer is to save the face of the Cote family, while the second layer is to provoke.

The reason why the wealthy families such as Rockefeller and the Texas Consortium are willing to invest in Walker's shale oil plan in this way is ultimately to deal with the Cott family. Now that the Cott family has actively disclosed their cooperation with Walker, it naturally has incited the relationship between Walker and these wealthy consortiums. Or it is better to intensify the existing conflicts between them and let Walker return to the family.

For this reason, the head of the Cott family joked at the family's internal meeting that Walker was a naive child: "He thought that he could come back like an emperor after creating shale oil, and let us all bow down to him? He was so naive that he was stupid. His approach would only reveal flaws and then be used by us. As for him, do you think that the used rag has any value? "

The next development is just as the Cotter family expected. When the wealthy families such as Rockefeller and the Texas Consortium heard that Walker took the initiative to get along with the Cotter family.

Contact and cooperate? Everyone was furious. Freeman and McGison called Walker personally to ask why he did this and why he did not discuss this with them in advance. They actually had to learn about such things from the newspaper, and even they used the words of betrayal.

However, in the face of their questioning, Walker was not panicked at all, and he even expected this.

As early as in his report to Zhou Ming, Zhou Ming reminded him that doing so would face tremendous pressure from Rockefeller and others, but Walker still insisted on doing so because he believed that only by doing so could he truly bring the Cott family into this game.

Although the development of shale oil in the past also had an impact on the Cote family, it was more of a pressure on the situation.

After reaching cooperation this time, the Cote family entered the Shale Oil Association, it will be officially on the table.

"Since that's the case, I won't say anything more, but Walker, remember that since you want to take the initiative, you should take the initiative to the end, whether it's facing Cote, Rockefeller or something else!"

Walker deeply remembers Mr. Zhou Ming's teachings, so this time Walker was prepared for the questioning of Freeman and McGison.

"You asked me why I did this? I didn't discuss it with you in advance, and I also said I was betraying me? So should I ask you why I betrayed me?" Walker asked back.

"What are we betraying? Walker, you are spreading rumors and slandering!" Freeman immediately retorted.

Despite being criticized, Walker was still very happy because he could hear the panic of the Rockefeller boss from Freeman's words.

Why is he panicking?

There is no doubt that they are right. Their hands and feet behind them are indeed as unclear as they think.

After confirming his guess, Walker became more confident. He then told Freeman and McGison that his cooperation with the Cotter family had his own necessary reasons, and this reason had nothing to do with betrayal. Of course, this reason could not be explained clearly on the phone, but he would hold another undisclosed shareholders' meeting in the future, and he would make it clear to everyone at this meeting.

Meanwhile, Walker assured everyone on the phone that his decision was definitely the most beneficial to everyone.

After hanging up the phone, Walker immediately called Zhou Ming to report the situation here and told Zhou Ming about the situation just now.

"Using guessing rhetorical questions to grasp the initiative is a very good way, and I think Freeman and the others should have a high opinion of you," said Zhou Ming.

It was true. After talking to Walker, Freeman and McGison themselves immediately held their own conference call, and they exchanged views on the phone.

First of all, they are undoubtedly very annoyed by Walker's good deeds, but at the same time, none of them asks to teach Walker a lesson or withdraw from the shale oil project. On the contrary, they all have a high opinion of Walker, and they all think that this is a talent who has his own ideas and is willing to take his own path.

Walker himself understood this, but he was disdainful: "The good comments in the eyes of these guys don't make much sense to me."

Zhou Ming also knew that Walker wanted to take revenge on the Cote family now, so he didn't say much about this. Then Zhou Ming asked Walker: "Then you are taking the initiative to make such remarks now, you are planning to close the Internet.

Is it?"

The contact between Walker and the Cotter family is only about the need for the plan, so it is difficult for Walker to find a suitable reason to convince Freeman and McGison that if they make up stories, they may not be able to deceive these people.

It can be said that this is a stopgap measure.

Because Freeman and McGison are representatives of their respective families, they all have their own industries and families to be busy with their careers, so they have to determine their respective itineraries and schedules. When Walker chooses a suitable meeting time, the turmoil may have begun. Then there is no difference between meetings or not. Walker is playing this time difference now.

Walker told Zhou Ming that he had just reached a cooperation with the Cote family. The Cote family has not been involved in depth, which is obviously too early. He will take the initiative to cooperate with the Cote family in a series of shale oil projects. After the Cote family has been involved in depth, they will flip the cards in one fell swoop.

After listening to Walker reporting his plans, Zhou Ming thought about it again and again. This time, Zhou Ming did not support Walker's idea, but asked him a seemingly irrelevant question: "Walker, do you know Robson and other core members of the Cotter family? Do you know their personalities?"

Walker didn't react at the first time, but just answered calmly and honestly. Although he had not been in the core circle for a long time, he still understood it.

Zhou Ming then asked Walker if he thought these people were suspicious.

Walker now understood a little, and Zhou Ming no longer continued to make a move, but told Walker directly: "You are either a traitor or a thief when you have nothing to do. You were kicked out by the Cote family. Now you should be resentful to the Cote family. In addition, they are actually stabbing you in the back, and you should hate them even more, but you are still so active in promoting cooperation, which will scare them away."

Walker suddenly realized his reaction. His repeated praise for Zhou Ming's judgment made him feel enlightened.

But at the same time, Walker was also confused. He said that he also understood that I should face the Cott family with a contradictory mentality. The signing of the cooperation agreement is signed, but if we really cooperate, we should still let it go, but he was more worried about Freeman and McGison.

"After all, that shareholders' meeting was just a way to delay time, and their itinerary could be arranged soon." Walker said that by then, he would be difficult to deal with.

Zhou Ming took Walker's words and reminded him again: "Unless other important things happen, attract their attention, so that they will not keep urging you to hold a meeting."

Walker is puzzled that his shale oil project is now running overload. Whether it is the Alden Company or the Shale Oil Association, they have not earned even a cent since their establishment. Most of the money he raised has been invested. Now, the rest is not enough to deal with the next plan. How can he do other major things?

Zhou Ming told him: "When did I say that you have to bear all these things alone? Since we are taking revenge on the Cote family together and you have done such an excellent shale oil project, I should have contributed to the trouble. This is my partner."

Walker was very moved because he had been in the Cott family in the past and was treated ruthlessly by capital. Now, he suddenly faced such a humane Zhou Ming, which made him immediately break his defense.
