...CNOOC was back in the hunt, with a gold-plated army of advisers behind it. Besides Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan, the company had hired Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, one of Washington's pre-eminent lobbying firms, as well as the same media consulting company that has worked for George W. Bush's two presidential campaigns. Finally, with his board's backing, Fu on June 22 announced its $18.5 billion all-cash bid for Unocal.
