Chapter 608 What else did you do?
The high-level meeting of the seven companies ended in just one day. Everyone clarified the details and signed the documents of the "Pan-Asian" offshore fund.
The power of the offshore fund is quite broad. The fund manager is Sir Tom, an unnatural person born in London, traveling around the world and living in Zurich. Its actual power is manipulated by the seven-member committee. Each company that participates in shares is counted as a shareholder and takes turns as an executive director without the premise of a chairman. Next, the shareholding ratio is the proportion of power distribution, whether it is daily voting or fund income.
There is no doubt that Dahua Industry, which owns 25 shares, is the first responsibility in the seven-person committee. Other companies also have internal board of directors issues. As the owner of a private company, Su Cheng can make a decision in a word.
Since Rockefeller and his partners designed and invented trusts, offshore funds are probably the best way to hide wealth. There are many large Chinese private companies that have adopted this kind of way. In the 21st century, it has gradually become a common behavior. Of course, most of the Chinese companies in 1994 were local tycoons, but Dahua was not the first and only Chinese company to do so.
The directors of the Pan-Asian Fund left, but all the Chinese officials who came to visit Dahua's latest offshore drilling platform stayed. Senior leaders met with Azerbaijani government officials, middle-level leaders took the opportunity to do local tourism, and low-level civil servants habitually delayed...
Taking advantage of the east wind of the government group, Sucheng came to the presidential palace of Azerbaijan unnoticed.
Although it is only a few months since the last meeting, Aliyev, who has received the full contract money, has a real presidential posture.
For such a small Central Asian country, hundreds of millions of dollars means not only better food and better clothing, but also more tank and aircraft parts, more loyal subordinates and wider support.
At the same time, Azerbaijan, which flaunts the new democracy, is no longer a funnel for everyone to go in and out.
The renovated presidential palace adopts imported materials and imported designs. In the end, the image is brilliant without losing the national customs, and expensive furniture and accessories can be seen from time to time.
From the perspective of Sucheng, this is like a reduced version of the royal building, and the oil-producing countries of later generations are almost doubled in luxury.
At that time, the oil price naturally doubled.
"Azerbaijan is in a good situation." Lin Yonggui is similar to the senior management of oil companies in various countries. Now he is paying more and more attention to the situation in the Caspian Sea region. He can't help but hope that he will have the opportunity to get the oil fields in Azerbaijan after his promotion.
"It looks pretty good." Su Cheng clicked and said, "It's no problem to take out more than a dozen oil fields and return the accounts of the Soviet era."
"It seems? Haven't been here for a long time?" Lin Yonggui's main focus is still on the officialdom.
Su Cheng was dumb and said with a smile, "How can I come now? If it hadn't been for the opportunity of this official meeting, I would probably have to find a way to sneak in, or send a plenipotentiary representative or something."
Lin Yonggui figured it out after thinking about it. Now Sucheng and Aliyev are indeed not suitable to meet easily. Otherwise, whether they are exposed by reporters from various countries or speculated by everyone that what is happening now, it is not in line with their wishes.
is the model of the official group, not only an enterprise of Dahua Industry, but also the members of the Ministry of Machinery Industry brought by Minister Xu. Many companies came directly from the Machinery Industry Exhibition. For state-owned enterprises in the mid-1990s, participating in international exhibitions is also a good qualification. Nowadays, there are many high-level state-owned enterprises who don't know how to deal with large foreign companies, and the number is much less than those who don't know how to travel abroad.
However, the foreign presidential palace is a relatively rare landscape. Whether it is experienced or not, it is staring at it with wide eyes.
Even if you are the head of a central enterprise, you don't often have the opportunity to come to the presidential palace.
Aliyev specially sent Vice President Husseinov and several ministers to receive the Chinese delegation, and the negotiations on the extension of the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline will also be carried out.
Minister Xu was busy promoting the company in the system, pushed it, and suddenly asked, "Why is Su Cheng missing?"
"Let's go to the bathroom." Lin Yonggui is 50 years old, and he is not embarrassed to lie at all.
Minister Xu immediately believed it, and then continued to introduce the enterprises under the name of the Ministry of Machinery Industry to the personnel of the Arab side.
On the other side, Sucheng quietly crossed the corridor and met Aliyev under the guidance of several people.
"I heard that you hit the third well? Unfortunately, I'm too busy, otherwise I must go and have a look for myself. Aliyev came to the door of the office to meet Sucheng. Although it may only be more than ten seconds in advance, he was also full of sincerity.
Su Cheng shook hands with him with a smile and said, "When we determine the reserves of the Azijiu oilfield, please invite His Excellency the President to attend the ceremony. According to our judgment, the Azijiu oil field will definitely become the gold-absorbing stone of Azerbaijan, the largest gold-absorbing stone."
Aliyev, who had just begun to earn black gold, was very interested in absorbing gold and immediately asked, "The reserves are very high?"
"Because it's only the third one, we conservatively estimate that it's not a problem for the reserves to exceed 1.5 billion barrels." Su Cheng still said a number, which is quite useful for politicians.
Aliyev was stunned for a moment and immediately said, "Congratulations."
At present, Azerbaijan does not have the capacity to extract oil. In fact, because the income is too rich, most oil-producing countries still lack oil production capacity even if they recover their oil resources or share the contract. Therefore, Aliyev always has to hand over the oil field to a foreign company, not Dahua Industry or BP, but also an enterprise.
From his point of view, producing oil as soon as possible and producing as much oil as possible is the best way to get money.
Even if Dahua Industry adopts a high signing fee and a low share, it will give more than half of the gold yuan to the Azerbaijani government. The so-called best business must include sitting on the ground and splitting the stolen.
However, Aliyev thought of the low-sharing contract specially made by Sucheng and asked strangely, "How do you judge the oil field?"
"Of course, the underground things can only be guessed." Su Chengyan said insincerely, and then said, "Our judgment on reserves has not been published yet."
"Oh?" Aliyev immediately noticed something in his words.
Su Cheng was not ready to sell the barrier. He said steadily, "If the next drilling goes smoothly, we will announce the reserves and output of the Aqijiu oilfield with conclusive evidence, and then we will sell oil spot in large quantities. Normally, the price of the oil market will be suppressed by us immediately.
"Will oil prices fall?"
"It will rebound soon, and the decline will be very short."
"So that's it." Aliyev hasn't fully understood it yet.
Su Cheng smiled and introduced, "Since the sale of oil and the announcement of news are under our control, we can also determine the time when the oil price falls. If we sell short in the oil futures market, it is estimated that we can make a lot of money."
Alyyev's eyes narrowed.
Su Cheng asked with a smile, "Is the President interested in joining?"
Although it is the president of a country, although the presidential palace has been newly renovated, Sucheng is very sure that Aliyev is now more short of money than the poor.
It is nothing new to set up an insider trading group in addition to insider trading.
The oil field is from Dahua Industry, and the officially announced qualifications can only be from Dahua Industry. In this case, Sucheng also holds the leading power.
Forming another insider trading group is just a little more complicated for him.
However, unlike the previous group, Sucheng did not wait for Aliyev's answer and asked, "I will tell you the key time point. You can make any money as you want. I hope you can agree to the extension of the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline and sign a separate contract with Dahua Industry, and the land passed by the pipeline is reasonable. The price is sold to Dahua Industry.
An oil pipeline is extremely complex, and the benefits involved are also huge. Aliyev subconsciously wants to refuse.
Su Cheng was familiar with his expression and immediately rushed to say, "The profit may reach 30, invest 1 billion US dollars, and it is not a problem to earn 300 million."
He is not worried about Aliyev's disclosure of this news. Unlike the channels of companies such as Repsol, I'm afraid that there are few people Aliev knows who are suitable for insider trading. Even if there are, he is expected to be included in his trading group first.
Alyev listened to the figure of $300 million and fell into meditation.
This is a waste of money. Compared with the diplomatic assistance that is difficult for China to provide, Aliyev is actually more inclined to cash.
The extension of the oil pipeline is not a matter of profit in the final analysis.
Nowadays, in Azerbaijan, except for the Baku region, there are not many valuable plots. What he really pays is low-cost land.
But how much low the land is, we can talk about it after all.
"I'll give you a reply in a couple of days. Can you make it in time?" Aliyev is ready to ask about his think tank.
Su Cheng nodded understandingly and said, "There is no problem for two days, so I'll leave first."
Aliyev still took him to the door of the office, and then the secretary sent him back to the Chinese exhibition team, that is, the conference room under negotiation.
At this time, China and Afghanistan are chatting about the hustle and bustle.
Minister Xu finished the promotion of a separate company and began to promote the project. It happened that Azerbaijan had made a fortune, and Hussainov was also very interested.
Everyone was happy when several Azerbaijani staff suddenly stood up.
Su City, who went to the "bathroom" for nearly half an hour, suddenly appeared at the door. In front of him was Aliyev's eldest secretary, a strict and sensitive guy.
"Excuse me." The secretary bowed his head to Hussainov and left proudly.
Minister Xu stared at Su Cheng and thought: What did this guy do?
