中国人对于不要重复过往的错误有自己的成语:惩前毖后,其意思是“吸取所犯错误的教训,避免以后再犯。这个词用在现在非常贴切。七年前,中海油也曾雄心勃勃地试图收购一家美国企业,但遭到了断然拒绝。
A huge lobbying effort, led by the US group, swept across Washington and prompted congressional hearings, while Cnooc failed to muster a strong justification for its bid or reassuran-ces that its motivations were benign.
2005年,雪佛龙(Chevron)对美国第九大石油企业优尼科(Unocal)发出了作价167亿美元(不包括债务)的收购要约。虽然中海油在美国的知名度不高,但其凭借185亿美元的收购报价一举压过了雪佛龙(Chevron)。中海油这一出人意料的举措令所有人都颇感震惊。能源公司的高管们吃惊地意识到,中国寻求自然资源的触角竟然伸展得如此迅速、如此广泛。美国监管当局在这一被他们视为具有攻击性的中国收购方面前则陷入了一种夸张的癫狂状态。而此前认为自己已经胜券在握的雪佛龙则被迫处于守势。
The House of Representatives quickly passed a non-binding resolution calling for an immediate investigation by the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States (Cfius), saying the deal “would threaten to impair the national security of the United States. Before that review could reach a conclusion Cnooc withdrew, paving the way for Chevron to ac-quire Unocal for a sweetened $17.4bn.
