Chapter 147 Bidding Alone

In 1988, the price of 100 million US dollars was equivalent to more than 15 million barrels of crude oil, which was still within the tolerance of [China] China National Petroleum Corporation. Of course, it's not that easy.

The foreign exchange earned by Tuanjia relying on the export of crude oil should be used in all aspects. Foreign exchange is indispensable for military, diplomacy, science and technology, industry and commerce, personal consumption, etc. Before the crude oil crisis appeared, the upper class hoped that the oil company was a good cow - eating RMB and squeezing out foreign exchange.

Feeding the cow with foreign exchange is both unnecessary and wasteful in the eyes of many people. Fortunately, with Lin Yonggui's unremitting running and guarantee, he just moved the oil company. This is also what Sucheng expected. Since 1981, [China] has implemented a large package of 100 million tons of crude oil to the oil industry: after completing the production task of 100 million tons of crude oil, the Ministry of Petroleum at that time could sell the overproduced crude oil at the international market price, leaving the price difference to itself, and most of it as oil exploration. A small part of the fund is used for employee welfare and rewards.

Therefore, before the end of the charter policy in 1994, the most important standard within the Ministry of Petroleum or PetroChina was crude oil production.

Shengli Oilfield has an annual output of 30 million tons of crude oil, and Daqing Oilfield has an annual output of 40 million crude oil. The output of the two companies accounts for more than 60% of the oil company. As long as Lin Yonggui can unify his ideas within Shengli Oilfield and stick to it, the oil company will not strongly oppose it.

After all, it is a good thing to get rid of all kinds of worries and risks.

In mid-February, the Petroleum Corporation finally agreed to the tripartite cooperation. The head office took over the overall situation and instructed the most active Liu Bingyi to supervise it.

At this time, the date of the announcement of the bidding is less than 1. It is less than three months before the end of the bidding.

In such an emergency, the oil company still can't decide whether to bid and continue to apply upwards.

Su Cheng had no choice but to interfere with this kind of bureaucratic behavior, and even Lin Yonggui could not interfere. He could only urge him a little, and then waited quietly.

21st.

Only two days before the bidding came the news from Beijing: the proportion of investment was discussed.

Su Cheng finally had a feeling of struggling and rushed to the office building of the Ministry of Energy as soon as possible.

Since the reform of ministries and commissions in 1988, the Ministry of Petroleum, the Ministry of Coal and other energy-related ministries have been abolished, and their government functions have been transferred to the Ministry of Energy. If Xiaopang hadn't been on leave without pay, he would probably have tried his best to enter the new ministry. However, in the next ministerial reform, the Ministry of Energy will be abolished, leaving little impression on it. After all, his subordinate oil company and other central enterprises are traditional strong institutions, and it is difficult to do anything at all.

Su Cheng waited for not long before he saw Lin Yonggui appear and greeted him with a smile.

Lin Yonggui's face was a little pale, as if he had stayed up late. He did not show a happy look and pulled Su Cheng to the side. Then he whispered, "Be careful, things may change."

It is not the first time that Su Cheng has heard of the change. He calmly asked, "The third enterprise is Daqing? Even if Daqing doesn't have shallow sea oil technology, they have to listen to us.

"It's not the big ** Yonggui's mouth, and he said, "The guy with the blue suit and yellow tie on the right is from CNOOC."

Su Cheng's face has changed.

If Daqing is a feeding tiger, then CNOOC is a pack of wolves. This central enterprise, which was established in one year, is not obvious at this time. Its main work is to introduce foreign investment and jointly develop [China] National Offshore Oil.

Compared with [China] National Petroleum Corporation, CNOOC is very weak at this time, but compared with secondary enterprises such as Shengli Oilfield or Daqing Oilfield, it is superior in the first level, and it has accumulated some offshore oil construction and offshore oil extraction technology, and can exert a wide range of influence. .

"Isn't it led by the head office this time? Did the Ministry of Energy intervene? Suchong did not take into account the factors of the Ministry of Energy at all.

Lin Yonggui shook his head and said, "The Family Planning Commission is worried that we are not strong enough..."

He paused after saying half a word, and there were already staff in front of him to greet everyone to the meeting.

Su Cheng took a breath and ranked last.

In terms of officialdom, other people's secretaries can't even compare with other people's secretaries.

CNOOC's blue suit has also fallen behind. It can be said that the second youngest person in the field is estimated to be about the age of the witch. The yellow tie is a little outstanding, which is almost the brightest color in the office building. Seeing that Su Cheng was following the team, he looked at him curiously and asked, "Are you Su Cheng?"

Because he had come to the planning committee building, Su Cheng had already said "um" lightly.

"Introduce some, I'm Zhang Haochang, from CNOOC."

"Hello."

Su Cheng can't have a good look at this kind of food-grabbing guy.

Zhang Haochang didn't care. He smiled twice and said, "I heard that you pushed the oil company to bid for Middle East oil? Very discerning. Even inside CNOOC, we were very shocked to hear this news.

"So you came to grab the fruit?"

Zhang Haochang was stunned, laughed, changed his face and said, "International oilfield bidding is not as simple as you think. Only when our country's oil enterprises are twisted into a rope can they compete with foreign oil enterprises. That's it, and the actual situation is not optimistic. Your tripartite mode is basically a child's house.

When it came to the last sentence, Zhang Haochang's arrogance also rose.

In this case, Su Cheng himself would not show weakness. He snorted and said, "The returnees really have a different spirit. I have long heard that CNOOC has actively promoted the "introduction" strategy. In recent years, it has signed dozens of cooperation agreements and introduced billions of dollars? After selling so many offshore oil resources in our country, how is your shallow sea oil technology research?

Zhang Hao's singing face turned red.

In this period, [China] country actually does not pay much attention to the resource nature of oil. There are two main points that everyone cares about! The first is the consumption and export of domestic refined oil to generate foreign exchange, and the second is the production of petrochemical products. Due to the strength of the oil company, CNOOC, which is also a central enterprise, has to focus its research and development efforts on petrochemical products, and crude oil production mainly relies on foreign enterprises.

This is also the traditional resource-based technology model.

Strategically, this is normal, but for the people in it, it is really shameful that they have not been able to develop mining technology for several years. It means that the resources have been replaced and the technology has not been obtained.

If he was in front of others, Zhang Haochang could still resist a few words. In the face of Su Cheng, who had studied shallow sea oil drilling technology, he was speechless.

In private, Zhang Haochang also thought: If you give me more than a year of time, sufficient funds and manpower, I can also get a simple bottom platform. However, for more than a year, who will do offshore oil drilling platforms, and engage in the technology of dripping oil into the sea... In this era, petrochemical plants that are really good or guessing make more money than doing offshore oil technology. However, who can imagine that there is a bid for shallow sea oil fields in the Middle East.

Su Cheng crossed Zhang Haochang and moved forward.

Zhang Haochang stared at his back and thought: the opportunity is only for those who are prepared. However, he is too ambitious. Can he eat foreign oil fields alone?

Everyone sat in the conference hall with their own thoughts.

This is a small square table meeting. The leaders of the Ministry of Energy and the Planning Commission sit on one side of the table, and the leaders of the oil company and other companies sit on the other side.

Su Cheng sat in the front seat rudely. Now he doesn't want to be modest at all.

In front of him, in addition to the leaders of the Ministry of Energy and the Planning Commission, there is also an unexpected figure of Su Cheng: Su Zhenguo.

This cheap grandpa is showing a warm smile and facing everyone. The superb skills ensure that everyone thinks that this smile is for themselves, just like Su City.

"Just yesterday, we received the real news and got the details of the tender for the oil field in the United Arab Emirates. Now we are sending it to you." Minister Guo of the Ministry of Energy stood up and motioned the staff on both sides to distribute copies of the tender. At the same time, he said, "The leaders of the Planning Commission are very concerned about us. This is an attempt to go out in the field of crude oil extraction in China. Once successful, we can break the blockade of Western countries and enter the most important areas in Middle East oil circle..."

Sucheng's bid is indeed a copy of the official document. The content is similar to what he got on that day. There is a slight and a slight inflicating sentence. The location of the most important oil field is not written, but the exploitation period is increased: 35 years.

This is five years more than a normal oilfield contract, which is very rare. Five years often means billions of dollars that can be mined until 2025. Sioux City is very sure that the oil at that time had risen to more than $100 per barrel.

Minister Guo talked about the importance there, while Su Cheng curled his lips in private and scolded: Unbold officials, they didn't even dare to prepare before they got the tender.

Although the current specifications are beyond imagination, they are not what Su Cheng expected, and there is no sense of identity with Guo Nachang's words.

Zhang Haochang winked at Su Cheng and smiled at the corners of his mouth.

Su Cheng was expressionless and didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

Because it is a talk, there is no prosperous speech.

Minister Guo just asked a few pretentious questions and said, "Regarding the issue of this UAE oilfield bidding, the Planning Commission and the Ministry of Energy have had an in-depth understanding of [China] National Petroleum Corporation, CNOOC and Sinopec, and have now reached a conclusion."

Su Cheng sat up straight.

Zhang Haochang winked at Su Cheng again. Obviously, they have done their work and know the inside story.

Su Cheng was in a bad mood, but he still thought about it carefully. He has considered before that if the tripartite model cannot be realized...

When he thinks about it, the degree of attention to the people around him is very low. Until someone else pushed him.

After listening to Minister Guo's voice, "The final decision will be made by [China] National Petroleum Corporation, [China] National Offshore Oil Corporation, [China] National Petrochemical Corporation, with Chen... Dahua Industry, jointly funded to bid for the oil fields of the United Arab Emirates. The specific proportion is, [China] National Petroleum Corporation, [China] National Oceanic Corporation, [China] National Petroleum Corporation Wei, Dahua Industrial.

"Did you?" Su Cheng suddenly stood up.

"Please sit down." Minister Guo obviously expected it and said blankly, "We hesitated for a long time to give the equity of Dahua Industry. It is also considering that the patent use rights of CNOOC and Sinopec are not included in the agreement between Dahua Industry and [China] China National Petroleum Corporation. Therefore, these 5% of the shares include the patent transfer fee. Therefore, Dahua Industry does not need actual investment.

"So, what about the amount of funds from the other three companies?"

"China] China National Petroleum Corporation is 35 million US dollars, CNOOC is 30 million US dollars, and Sinopec is 30 million US dollars."

[China] National Petroleum Corporation once signed a 50% patent transfer agreement with [Japan] Ito Corporation, that is, 28 million US dollars. But now, your valuation of my patent is only 5 million. Su Cheng tried to be calm, but the resentment still went straight to the sky.

Zhang Haochang looked at Su Cheng with great interest. Within CNOOC, they have also done a lot of work to get the proportion of kanga, and it is not too much to say that it is Wenshan Jiuhai. He also wants to know how Sucheng fights...

In fact, there is a lot of proportion of nephews in Zhang Haochang's eyes. Saving the investment of Zhi million yuan is only one aspect. Once the oil is successfully released, the return will definitely exceed 10 million. Dahua Industry is only Sucheng's. Zhang Haochang only regards Sucheng's resistance as a bargaining trick.

The same is true of Minister Guo. After roughly explaining that Ruwan is the original stock, he said, "This is something that has been decided."

Su Cheng took a deep breath. He has done so much work that he does not simply want tens of millions of dollars in return.

At this time, Liu Bing and Lin Yonggui can't help. Their level can only follow the orders of Minister Guo.

Su Cheng hesitated for a moment, exhaled a turbid breath and said, "I'll quit."

"Huh?" Minister Guo gently turned the cup.

Su Cheng said without squinting, "According to the agreement, [China] China National Petroleum Corporation can use various patents free of charge, but CNOOC and Sinopec cannot. Moreover, PetroChina only has the right to use patents and has no ownership. I refused to sell the patent, so I withdrew from this bidding.

With senior leaders present, Minister Guo was not angry, but said, "You can do it if you don't sell the patent right. Oilfield mining will be carried out by the drilling team of PetroChina. This stock..."

In a simple sentence, it resolves the patent threat of Su City. Although it is not very in line with the regulations, it is more than enough on this occasion.

Zhang Haochang looked around and said first, "Then give it to us. CNOOC is willing to bear this again."

Sinopec sent an old leader, who was unwilling to show weakness and said, "We Sinopec can also..."

"Since PetroChina is responsible for the mining task, of course, the shares of this eel should be left to our oil company."

The three parties quarreled a few words, and there was no result.

Minister Guo looked at Su Cheng with a smile and said with a smile, "Su Cheng, it's not good to give up halfway. Your Dahua Industry withdrew from the bidding, there are only disadvantages and no benefits. Do you want to think about it again?

Lin Yonggui motioned to Su Cheng with his eyes and asked him to admit his mistake.

Su Cheng turned his face and said, "Minister Guo, if you don't object, Dahua Industry will participate in the bidding alone."

"Huh?"

"Dahua Industry gave up the proportion and went to the United Arab Emirates to bid alone."

Zhang Haochang listened to Su Cheng's words and smiled. Just as he was about to laugh, he suddenly found that no one was laughing.

Yes, who would be kidding on such a serious occasion?

Except for overseas returnees like Zhang Haochang, everyone realized that Su Cheng was not joking.

"Su City!" Lin Yonggui coughed heavily and said, "Is there any bidding money from Dahua Industry?"

"I will find a way to finance it.

"What about the exploration cost later? What about the mining cost? There are also personnel and equipment--..." Lin Yonggui said kindly, "If you want to make a big business, you should also enter the Middle East oil circle first. You are still young, so why hurry for a while."

He is also reminding others that Sucheng is still young and don't bully teenagers.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Thank you, Lin [Book]. I've already thought about it and bid separately. Therefore, I hope that Minister Guo will allow Dahua Industry to withdraw from the current bidding group.

He knew in his heart that it is the honeymoon period between China and the United States. After next year, [China] will think of bidding for oil fields in places like the Middle East. The political wall alone can kill people. How can we talk about bidding? Although it is difficult for Dahua Industry to bid alone, it is better than wasting time in proportion.

Minister Guo obviously did not expect this situation to let a [China] private enterprise go abroad to bid for oil fields? What if they are humiliating to the country? What if they lose their power and humiliate the country? What if they let foreigners take advantage of it? What if they lie to foreigners?

All kinds of thoughts filled his mind. Minister Guo quickly cleared his head, looked up at Su Zhenguo, and smiled, "Look..."

"It's a good thing for young people to be aggressive. There are also many private enterprises in foreign companies bidding for oil fields. We [China] also have private enterprises, which are willing to actively participate in international competition, which is a good thing. Su Zhenguo quickly gave the [answer] case.

Minister Guo was secretly surprised and covered it up by turning the cup. After a while, he said, "In this case, Dahua Industry will withdraw from the bidding group."

"Thank you all." Su Cheng didn't say much. He stood up and walked out of the conference room.

Su Zhenguo looked at his back and didn't know what he was thinking.

There were bursts of quarrels behind, which were three oil offices competing for their nephew's quota.

Su Cheng leaned down on the window of the corridor, breathing the cold air and leaving the noise behind.

I don't know how long it took, Zhang Haochang appeared behind him and whispered, "If you bid alone, you will face a much greater risk than joint bidding--, the broken capital chain, failed exploration, and too few reserves are all terrible things..."

Su Cheng did not look back. He looked at the red mountain outside the window and said, "I know."

"If the oil head office fails, it will give the employees less bonuses at most. If you fail, you will have nothing."

"At worst, start over." Su Cheng turned around and whispered, "I didn't quit not only because of the small proportion. It's meaningless for me to stay like this. I guess I don't even have the power to speak. In addition, people are not in the same way, and it is difficult to compete with foreign oil companies.

Zhang Haochang said unconvincedly, "Is your Dahua Industry OK?"

"It's okay. We'll know in a few months." Su Cheng smiled and said, "If Dahua fails in the bidding, the country will not lose. If Dahua wins the bidding, it will be up to me to donate oil to the country. I'm afraid it's hard for the three of you to work together to fail.

Zhang Haochang was stunned.

Su Cheng teased his yellow tie with a smile and turned away.
