Ten minutes later, amid fierce competition among Russia's three major oil giants, the AC28 oil field—claimed to contain $332.5 billion worth of oil—was ultimately acquired by Lukoil's CEO, Oleg, for $10.5 billion! 

This set a new record as the most expensive oil field bid in Russian history! 

"Haha!" Lukoil's CEO, Oleg, excitedly waved his right hand. Then, with a victorious posture, he deliberately glanced at the other two CEOs, as well as Mavi, who remained completely unfazed—if anything, he was struggling not to laugh. 

The look in Oleg's eyes clearly conveyed one message: Russia's oil industry revolution starts with Lukoil. 

Mavi could barely handle situations like this. He feared that if his conscience got the better of him, he might accidentally blurt out the truth: 

Lukoil's CEO, Oleg, had just spent $10.5 billion on an oil field that was essentially worthless—at best, it could generate a return of $8 billion. 

In other words, his decision had instantly caused his company to lose $2.5 billion… 

--- 

As soon as the National Land and Resources Bureau's auction ended, news of the AC28 bid spread rapidly across media platforms. 

The headlines were eye-catching, and by the next day, international newspapers had picked up the story: 

Russian Daily: 

"Breaking News! Lukoil Invests $10.5 Billion in the Largest Oil Field Discovered in the Caucasus! Projected Net Profit of $55 Billion!" 

The next morning, Mavi was at home, casually reading the newspaper while eating breakfast. 

His butler, Ivan, couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "Young Master, you clearly had enough funds, so why didn't you compete for AC28? Instead, you chose AC16 and AC19?" 

This was a question many people were asking. After all, Mavi had nearly $12 billion available—so why did he unexpectedly avoid bidding for the richest oil field? 

Still eating his breakfast, Mavi simply smiled. 

He couldn't tell Ivan the truth—that he was a reborn individual and already knew how things would play out. 

Instead, he casually brushed off the question: "I just don't like the number 28. On the other hand, 16 and 19 feel better to me…" 

After saying that, Mavi continued eating with a calm demeanor. In just a few days, after he finalized the payments and sent his team to survey and drill, everything would become clear. 

--- 

Two weeks later, Mavi completed the payment of $3.58 billion to the Russian government and finalized all necessary procedures. 

He then dispatched a team of Alfa Oilfield Mining Company surveyors to begin drilling at AC16 and AC19 to assess the true oil reserves beneath the land. 

Several other oil companies, including Rosneft, Surgutneftegas, and of course, Lukoil—the so-called "biggest winner" of the auction—followed similar procedures for their own sites. 

However, a month and a half later, none of these companies had reported any major discoveries. 

In stark contrast, Mavi's team received two pieces of extraordinary news—within just three days! 

---

The moment butler Ivan received the news, he couldn't wait to rush to Mavi's room, exclaiming excitedly: 

"Young Master! Alfa Oil's surveyors just reported an unbelievable oil discovery beneath AC16!" 

At that moment, Mavi was in his room, casually watching TV while playing with Winnie, Little Jumping Tiger, and Simba. His computer camera was also on—he was video-calling his goddess, Jennifer, who was in the United States. 

"Relax, Ivan. Take your time," Mavi replied, remaining calm—because he had already expected this outcome. 

"Young Master! Based on initial assessments, AC16 holds an estimated 3.2 billion barrels of oil—worth approximately $98 billion!" Ivan relayed the message word-for-word. 

Yet, Mavi himself barely reacted—just a slight smile. 

Meanwhile, Jennifer—watching the call—was far more excited, letting out a loud: 

"OH MY GOD!" 

Her sudden outburst startled Simba, the little lion cub lounging on the desk. The poor thing almost fell off and turned to glare at Jennifer through the screen—as if asking: 

"Why are you scaring people… No! Why are you scaring lions?!" 

---

Jennifer continued, "Oh my god, Mavi! Just two days ago, my dad was worried your energy company might run out of luck…" 

She genuinely cared about Mavi. 

In this lifetime, 9/11 hadn't happened yet—it was already September 29th, and everything seemed safe. That alone was a huge relief. 

But Mavi wasn't about to let his guard down. Just because something hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. The worst-case scenario is always lurking… 

"At least for now, my luck seems pretty good," Mavi chuckled. 

Two days later, the survey of AC19 was nearly complete. 

The results? 

The oil reserves far exceeded Mavi's expectations—totaling a staggering 6.5 billion barrels! 

That meant AC19 held $196 billion worth of oil! 

---

These two groundbreaking discoveries quickly spread across Mavi's entire family—and by the next day, they dominated newspaper headlines: 

Russian Daily: 

"BREAKING: Ma V Energy Discovers Massive Oil Reserves in AC16 and AC19! Total Estimated Value: $294 Billion!" 

The moment this news broke, investors went wild. 

Companies that had previously invested in Ma V Energy—such as Blizzard Entertainment and Marvel Studios—saw their stock prices skyrocket overnight! 

All the doubts, rumors, and online skepticism were instantly crushed—proving the naysayers completely wrong.

 Global Interest 

For several days, Ma V Energy received collaboration requests from major energy corporations worldwide—including those from China's three major oil giants: 

- CNPC (China National Petroleum Corporation) 

- Sinopec (China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation) 

- CNOOC (China National Offshore Oil Corporation) 

After all, discovering a massive oil field isn't just a regular "positive development"—it's a game-changing event that can influence a country's entire economy. 

For China, securing oil partnerships was a matter of national interest. 

Since Mavi was the chairman of Ma V Energy, it was only natural that he arranged meetings with these companies to discuss potential strategic partnerships.
