super energy power

Su Cheng sat opposite Aliyev's desk, slowly and carefully flipping through the documents.

The letterhead of each document is stamped with "Top Secret" in Russian letters with a red seal.Two well-dressed officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stood on the left side, carefully opened the file bag, counted the files inside, and handed them to Su Cheng.The other person stood on the right, responsible for repacking the documents that Su Cheng had seen into the document bag,

Documents can only be read, no notes can be made, let alone photocopied and photographed.Whenever Sioux City reads a document, it cannot be opened again.Therefore, Su Cheng read it very carefully, as if he wanted to keep it in his mind.

He also had to do it.These documents are exactly the bidding documents for various oil companies to "declare to bid for oil fields". They not only contain the oil blocks they declared, but also company qualifications. From the perspective of competition, these qualifications are very important. For example, Italy Nigerian Group, set up a new branch, with a capital of 3 million U.S. dollars to conquer Azerbaijan.

As far as Azerbaijan’s signing fee requirements are concerned, the capital of 3 million U.S. dollars means that Italy’s Eni Group is not prepared to compete for all oil blocks. Most likely, it will focus on bidding for one or two oil blocks, and only participate in other oil blocks.Not only that, the amount of money is not even enough to build an offshore drilling platform, which means that their target does not include the five Caspian Sea oil fields, but one or two of the remaining six onshore oil fields.

Although it was a wrong decision, it allowed Sioux City to get the correct information.

In addition, the early personnel composition and construction period of each oil company will also be disclosed in the bidding document.These details are internal information that is hard to buy from the outside.

Although Dahua Industrial has commercial intelligence settings, it is difficult to get Dong Feng and Liu Yi for another 5 years based on what Sioux City has seen so far.

In the final analysis, they mainly complete intelligence collection through intelligence trading, and top-level intelligence is often difficult to buy with cash.

Facing the declaration documents of dozens of companies.Su Cheng knew that he couldn't remember all of them, so he focused his attention on analysis and tried to remember the important information of those important companies.Even so, he was dizzy from remembering dozens of documents.

Aliyev sat in his chair, tired of reviewing documents, so he looked at Sioux City.Immediately, he was full of energy.

He owes a lot to Su Cheng, so.Even top-secret information that shouldn't be leaked was leaked at the request of Su Cheng.It can be said that the documents read by Sioux City will undoubtedly affect the final benefits obtained by Azerbaijan.

However, today's Azerbaijan would not have these gains without the support of Sioux City.

Aliyev is not a ruthless person. Although he once thought about reneging on his debts, he finally acquiesced to that heavy favor under various news about Sioux City.

Azerbaijan does not only need oil companies.It also needs the oil companies that stand firm behind him.This kind of thinking is not only shared by Aliyev, but also by other senior Azerbaijani officials.

There is no oil company that does not eat meat, the difference is only in the appearance of the food.Dahua Industrial in Sioux City has been operating in Azerbaijan for so long, so it is natural to gain some favor.

The office was extremely quiet, save for the rustling of pens and the flipping of pages.

An afternoon passed, and Aliyev did not rush.After going to eat by himself and then coming back, Su Cheng is still memorizing.

Speaking of which, when he was studying, he was not so serious.

Until 7 o'clock in the evening, the officer on the right sealed the last document, saluted and left.Only then did Aliyev ask with a smile: "There is still an hour until the celebration begins, and it will be too late to go back. I asked someone to bring all the clothes for you."

"Thank you, President." Su Cheng stood up, feeling as if the exam was over, he shook his head twice, stood firm and said with a smile: "I'm a little dizzy."

"Drink some water." Aliyev smiled slightly, letting Su Cheng relax for a moment.He asked, "I heard that you have a special interest in oil block No. 8?"

Block 8 was a sham, but no one except Sioux City was sure of that.

Now, Sioux City does not expose it, but tentatively asked: "If Dahua Industry has a special demand for a certain oil field, will your Excellency agree with it?"

"You want to ask, do I agree with Dahua Industrial to obtain the No. 8 oil block?"

Su Cheng pondered for a moment: "It doesn't just refer to No. 8."

Aliyev laughed "ha" and said, "It turned out to be a cover."

Su Cheng said without embarrassment: "It's not a pretense, if you can win the No. 8 oil block, Dahua Industrial will be very satisfied."

"So that's it. Then which oil block do you have special needs for?" Aliyev leaned back and returned to his big bureaucratic style.Back then, when he was the minister of the Soviet Union, his status was even higher than it is now.

With just one sentence, Sioux City stood at a crossroads: Should we expose Dahua Industrial's target oil block to Aliyev?

There are good reasons for not exposing.He could have used a few sticks of oil to prevaricate Aliyev, and the latter would not force him to ask.However, if Dahua Industrial wants to obtain any block of oil, it must finally obtain the consent of Aliyev. If it is not handled properly, it may be beaten.

The most ideal state is naturally to tell Aliyev the oil block he has chosen, and Aliyev also acquiesced in this point and offered help.

Not to mention anything else, as long as Aliyev is willing to secretly inform the reserve prices of other oil companies in Sioux City during the bidding period, he will be [-]% sure to help Dahua Industrial lock the oil field.

Of course, there is another possibility that Sioux City informed Aliyev of the oil block he had chosen.And Aliyev turned around to work with other companies.

Although this possibility is unlikely, given the importance of the Aqijiu Oilfield, if Aliyev discovers the super reserves of this oilfield after investigation, there will be very few moral norms to hinder him.

Su Cheng couldn't make a decision and fell into a dilemma.

Unlike ordinary inter-company bidding, the president of a country is the easiest and hardest to bribe.

Bribery is good because there is neither legal danger nor moral crisis in bribing the president. As long as you dare to give it, he will dare to accept it.Not only money, gold and jewelry, real estate and silver, even arms, drugs and black technology, there is nothing he dare not take.As far as the current tension in Central Asia is concerned, Sioux City can be sure.If there is a nuclear bomb in front of Aliyev right now, he can put it in his arms calmly.

It is not good to say bribery, because the cost of bribing the president is very high. If the judgment is not good, the bid may be so high that it becomes a job for the president. If the bid is too low, it may have the opposite effect.

so.Companies that pursue cost-effectiveness generally choose to bribe people around the president.This approach has the same effect, but obviously saves a lot of money.Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. The uncertainty and risk are higher than bribing the president. Moreover, if other companies choose to bribe the president, the other party will definitely cut him off.

Whether it is bribing the president or the people around the president, it is the most common situation that you can't visit the temple gate with a pig's head.

Sioux City is now able to talk face-to-face with Aliyev, which is also due to the trust established between the two over a long period of time.Switching to Shell and other European and American companies, I am afraid that it would be difficult to see Aliyev.Such a private occasion is even more difficult...

In just ten seconds, Su Cheng was already sweating profusely.

It was as if he was taking an important exam. When he opened the paper, he found that there was only one multiple-choice question, which was surprisingly difficult.

In fact.He is going through an important exam, not only his, but also Dahua's.

Aliyev is an old-fashioned Soviet man, behind his small twinkling eyes, his mind is hard to guess.

The reality didn't give Su Cheng too much time to hesitate.

After a while, Su Cheng gritted his teeth.Said: "What I really value is oil block No. 6, the Zirag area 100 kilometers east of Baku."

"No. 6 oil block?" Aliyev quickly recalled and asked, "Why?"

"According to the analysis of our experts, it is believed that a super large oil field is most likely to appear there." It is also impossible for Sioux City to say that this is the large oil field in his memory, and he can only explain it with the most convincing words.

Aliyev stared at Su Cheng for a few seconds, smiled, and said, "Okay. Then the No. 6 oil block. I will give you a chance to make a price."

Offer?

Su Cheng was puzzled for a moment, and immediately realized that Aliyev was blatantly asking for bribes.

However, this is not surprising. When he was not on stage, he dared to take 5000 million US dollars in one go. Now his appetite must be even greater.

However, is he asking for a bribe for himself, or for Azerbaijan?

Su Cheng's brain hurts from thinking, and he thought: Whoever said that the more you use your brain, the more effective you will be, the person who said that must have no brains.

He didn't think about it at all, and for the sake of Aqijiu Oilfield, he simply said generously: "Don't let me make a price, if you have any requirements, just mention it, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to do it .”

Aliyev smiled in surprise: "So, are you really interested in the No. 6 oil field?"

"of course."

"No. 6 is an offshore oil field. You have never drilled before, so you dare to pay a high price?" Aliyev asked himself and replied, "I heard that Dahua Industrial has obtained a batch of Soviet data. So, Is it true?"

Before and after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Sioux City ran around Moscow, and what they obtained most was information.However, the Aqijiu Oilfield was not explored by the Soviet Union.

Regarding this, Su Cheng was noncommittal. He pretended to drink some water, put down his glass and said, "Dahua Industrial hopes to independently bid for the No. 6 oil block. If you can get it, you have nothing to ask for."

With the strength of Dahua Industrial, he couldn't ask for anything else.There are countless oil companies that have come to Azerbaijan. All the large oil companies in the world should have come. If you count them casually, there are more than one company that surpasses the current PetroChina. Azerbaijan seems to have taken out 11 oil fields. In recent years, oil-producing countries have spent a lot of money, but it is impossible for each oil company to share one.

Those who have the qualifications and ambition to independently obtain a piece of oil must either be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, or have superior strength and strong relationships.As far as the situation in Azerbaijan is concerned, most of the companies that are qualified to independently bid for oil fields will also choose to focus on bidding for a few oil fields, and then participate in bidding for other oil fields.For reasons of risk control and capital management, some traditional old-fashioned oil companies prohibit companies from bidding independently, and only adopt the model of participation in bidding.

Compared with other large companies, Dahua Industrial has the advantage of flexibility. Ducat of bp wants to bid for an oil field, and he has to report to the top three or four levels of leaders, while Sioux City only needs to make its own decision.

Facing the known super oilfield Aqijiu, Sioux City really has "nothing else to ask for".

Aliyev didn't seem to have any intention to delve into it. After confirming Su Cheng's attitude, he took out a note from the drawer, handed it over, and said, "My request is on the top, if you can complete it, 6 Oil Field No. [-] is yours."

Su Cheng suppressed his mood, took the note full of words, and the first one he saw made him gasp:

State loans: $30 billion.

This is not more than ten years later. In 1993, there was only so much foreign exchange in China. Dahua Industrial had a lot of foreign exchange cash outside the control, but it was not so much, and it could not be used in this way.Furthermore, the national loan and enterprise loan that Aliyev wanted were two different things. With his knees hit by an arrow, he knew that the interest rate must be outrageously low, and it might be a medium- and long-term interest-free loan.

If it is placed after 05, it will not be difficult for the Chinese government to provide a loan of 200 billion US dollars. Even after 98, the loan model of the Bank of China will undergo great changes... But in [-], I am afraid that only developed countries such as Europe, America and Japan can quietly come up with such a large amount of cash.

Su Cheng raised his eyes and looked at Aliyev, seeing that he had returned to the state of approving documents, so he could only continue to read: light industrial products, diplomatic support, petrochemical industry chain... These are not unusual, but they cannot be said to be easy thing.

"I understand." After a long time, Su Cheng folded the note and put it in his pocket.

"You agree?" Aliyev looked up at him.

Su Cheng put on a wry smile, and said, "I don't have the capital to refuse either."

"The national loan should be paid within half a year, is that okay?" Aliyev is poor and crazy now, let alone 30 billion US dollars, even 300 billion US dollars, he can spend it cleanly.For him now, raising funds is not only for country building, but also the cornerstone of national stability.Compared with it, the god-sent oil is just a tool.

Su Cheng nodded, and said: "National loans should be counted as Dahua Industrial's bidding conditions, and other companies must be treated the same."

"Of course." Aliyev stretched his eyebrows with a smile, and said, "Mr. Su Cheng is a good friend of the Azerbaijani people. I guarantee that even if other companies offer better conditions, Dahua Industry will win the bid."

Su Cheng also smiled like a flower.Although the price is expensive, if he can lock the Aqijiu Oilfield, he will be happy. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
