UZCC Press Conference

"Greetings and hello. I am Ken Triti, CEO and founder of Unified Zanziik Oil Company, and I have announced this press conference today to declare the sale of a very large amount of crude oil from our company. The UZCC has the capability, thanks to it's cornering of the Zanziik market, to produce 810 billion barrels (bbl) per NS year (1 RL day). Although 400 bbl/NS year are reserved for use by the Zanziik Board of Power, 410 bbl/NS year are still available for purchase, to whoever would like them."

OOC: The price of oil IS a bit high right now, but I will try to keep the price updated constantly.

1 barrel of UZOC Oil = $67 USD

Amount left: 347,982,479,500 barrels/NS year

One Time Profit: $1,140,000,000,000
Total Profit Per NS year: $2,305,173,873,500

The total 410 bbl/NS year would cost $27,470,000,000,000 so please do not post saying: "I want it all, how much?"

The Great Eighth Reich of Witzgall has been looking for an oppurtunity such as this to arise. As per request by the Fuhrer, we in the Reich wish to purchase 10,120,500 barrels of crude oil from your nation, if permitted.

We calculate this to cost approximately $750,073,500.00. More shall be purchased as we see fit. Please respond accordingly.

Thank you,
Commador Frederick A. Washington
Foreign Policies and Trade Department

The UIFC would like to extend the offer to join Us. You valuable assets would be of great importance to us. We would like to offer the position of equality in our Company.... name your price for the offer.

Witgall, your order has been confirmed and the shipping of the oil will begin immediately HOWEVER, your numbers have been reviewed by our accountants and it seems a small error was made, causing you to pay unnessecarily higher prices than needed. Your total comes to: $678,073,500 per NS year. This will be taken from you commerce budget. Thank you for your business.

UIFC and all members thereof, the UZCC is currently under the ownership of another conglomerate, the TNC (Two Nation Conglomerate), who do not wish to sell at this time. Thank you for you offer.

The offer will alwalys be open..... please consider the benefits before making your final decision....

Mondoth would like to establish an Oil Refinery in Zanziik to refine your crude oil into various fuels for which you can demand a much higher price. We will show you how to operate this site and build and manage additional refineries. ALl we ask is favorable trade relations (We don't need oil but perhaps there are other things we can trade, I have plenty of metals, I'm sure you have some stuff I would want) And the right to establish a small naval base.

After reviewing the offer set forth by Mondoth, the TNC has voted to allow the transaction to go through, resulting in the sale of refined oil rather than crude. Prices rose $14 to $67 USD from $43 USD for crude. Thank you.

The Trans-National Commodities Exchange would like to buy 30 billion barrels of UZOC Light Crude per NS year starting at $1.5 trillion ($50/barrel). 85% of the difference in the sales would be wired back to UNZOC each year. This deal is purely commercial in nature.

TNCE

OOC: I am kind of confused by this. You wish to purchase for $17 below value and pay off 85% of that difference per year? If this is right, it means you will sink deeper and deeper into debt each year... Is it too much to ask for the whole payment of $67 to help ease things out?

OOC: I am kind of confused by this. You wish to purchase for $17 below value and pay off 85% of that difference per year? If this is right, it means you will sink deeper and deeper into debt each year... Is it too much to ask for the whole payment of $67 to help ease things out?

OOC: I'm sorry. The way I posted it was kind of confusing. Let me see....IC:

TNCE projects the price and demand of UZOC crude to increase. We would like for you to sell us the said amount of crude for $50/barrel per year (an agreement of sorts). As the price increases every year, we will keep 15% of the markup and change in the price, and you will keep 85%.

So if the price of crude retailing on the TNCE at $50.50 goes up 2% at the end of the year and we sell all 30 billion barrels, the price will be at $51.51.

So, where we bought your crude for $1.5 trillion, the value increases to $1,545,300,000 - the difference being $45,300,000. You make a profit of $38,505,000 effectively keeping 85% of the difference in the increase. We keep the rest. Thanks for your time.

ooc: the price should appreciate well more than 2%

OOC: Ah that is much clearer now, glad we could figure that out.

IC: The TNC has voted and agreed that while 85% is an intriguing number, 90/10 seems a more fair amount to our voters. Is this number agreeable to you?

The young man sat at the polished desk with a shiny ebony finish staring onto the stark wall. "Computer, latest offers please!"

A voice rang out "One moment." The man slowly turned to look out the window of his office on the 131st floor of the Croseps-Finançial Plaza, right above the trading floor. "Beathtaking, but I wonder when we'll get our own building."

The man looked onto the wall, now flashing with numbers and signs, yet something in particular caused him to swallow hard. "UZOC wants 90%!"

------------------------------------------------------------
After much hassling, the TNCE respectfully agrees to your terms, but does wish to leave re-negotiation a possibility in the future. Thank you.

TNCE, Senior Representative

This is acceptable, your order of 30 bbl/NS year is being shipped immediately, and the UZOC and TNC thank you for your patronage.

OOC: Bump for the night as I'm off to bed, and also, Witzgall has the authority to ok or decline offers from hereon.

OOC: Bump again.

The Yukos/MOil Joint Oil Conglomerate express an interest at gaining stock in the UZOC. Negotiations will follow with reply.

OOC: May I ask how you possibly get 810 BILLION barrels per DAY? There's not enough oil in the Earth..

.... I was undering the same.

OOC: NS earth is definately not RL earth, many things happen here that wouldn't in RL, but I will lower the number a bit. Also, to achieve this much oil, UZOC has cornered the oil market in several countries, including Zanziik, Witzgall, Zairth, and Tinsuvilia, allowing for high amounts of oil to be mined each year.

IC: After reviewing your offer, the TNC has voted to allow you to purchase up to 49% of the stock in UZOC, amounting to 399,999,999,900 shares. The TNC owns a controlling share in UZOC, of 400,000,000,000 shares, or 51%.

We are very interested in purchasing 20,000,000,000 barrels of crude oil at $67 each. The total cost comes to $1,140,000,000,000 ($1.14 trillion), however we require that it be delivered to us as quick as possible, and for this we offer an extra of $10 bill.

Furthermore, we would like to secure a permanent contract for 1 billion barrels of oil per month to be delivered to our nation at a cost of $804 billion per year.

Our thanks,
Julia Hime,
Minister of Trade, IN.

The TNC has agreed to allow this sale, and your initial shipment of 20 billion barrels will be shipped now. The 12 billion per year will be shipped as well. Thank you for your order.

Thanks for your excellent service.

The YMJOC is prepared to purchase 49% of stock in UZOC, amounting to 399,999,999,900 shares. For publicity sake, please telegram the price. We will speak from there. Thank you.

The Imperial Empire of Buben is very intrested in obtaining surplus stock of oil from our ally. As your well aware we have a thrist for black gold which seem's to get bigger everyday. As such we ask for a monthly shipment 250,000 metric tons of crude which will be picked up by one of our ULCC (Ultra-Large Crude Carrier) monthly.


I'm sorry but my accountant seems to have left the building, so the price for the shipments i'll get back to you on.



OOC -- Got to go right now, so i'll figure the price when I get home.

OOC: *Whacks you upside the head for using metric, not barrels, and then having someone else on your AIM when I tried to whack you upside the head on there. Grr...*

IC: Due to stupidity on the part of our accountants, they have sent this reply.

Dear sirs, although we value your business, we would request that you convert your measurements to ours to save time and head ache. We are willing to subtract ten million dollars off the cost if you do this.

The Armed Republic of Teh Hax wants 7.4 million barrels of crude oil. That totals around $495,800,000.

Your order has been approved and your oil has been shipped. Thank you for your business.

LOL good luck with running dry in 5 years.

This is assuming that each one of those nations has more oil in it than there is in the whole RL world. Impossible even by NS standards.

OOC: USSNA, I realize that you have a right to your opinion, but please mark your posts as OOC when they are such, right now my president could get uber mad at you, and tensions would follow. I don't want that.
