Chapter 460 Sell well
The news that Nazarbayev took the initiative to sell well spread to China, and it did not immediately attract any response. Only a few media introduced it with the size of a tofu block. It's basically a pure introduction, not to mention no comments, not even an editor's note.
In the eyes of the outside world, Chinese officials seem to be stunned or don't care about it at all.
However, the truth of the facts is often the opposite of superficial phenomena.
The media is not unreported, but not allowed to report. In fact, readers don't like to read such diplomatic events very much, and the country is relatively tight. Naturally, the media can not cause trouble without causing trouble.
Therefore, the domestic performance is a calmness that does not care.
But in private, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and higher levels are basically crazy.
What's going on?
Why did Kazakhstan suddenly start to sell well?
Questions and plausible answers are first spread in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Some young people are full of "benevolent and invincible" characters in their minds.
If it weren't for the "bene who are invincible", why did they suddenly invite China to develop oil pipelines in the eyes of Europe and the United States?
This is a pie falling from the sky.
Especially the director in charge of Central Asia, who originally followed the director to the French embassy to have dinner, the headquarters called and asked, "Have you contacted the senior management of Kazakhstan in Central Asia recently?"
The director, who didn't know anything, was stunned and said, "I am a department-level cadre. What qualifications do I have to contact the high-level officials of Kazakhstan?"
The person over there "knows" and hung up the phone, then crossed out a name on the list with a ballpoint pen, and continued to make the next call.
There is nothing we can do. The minister is in a hurry to get the news, and the officials below are even more anxious.
At such a critical juncture, no one asked the first witness of this matter. Foreign Ministry officials sent to Gilombo to attend the Asian Petroleum Summit.
If anyone in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs knows a little about the situation, it is the official who has been publicized by Dahua.
Although I don't know much about it, if the ministry can remember to ask him. Naturally, you will know that this matter is related to Dahua Industry.
However, it is normal for headquarters officials to look down on expatriate officials and ask about Central Asia. It's troublesome enough to call expatriate officials in Central Asia. Who would have thought of asking the young cadres attending the meeting in Malaysia.
As soon as it comes and goes, the transmission of the message is delayed.
It was not until that night that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs came from other channels. Got the news: It may be that Dahua Industry has publicized Kazakhstan.
They excitedly brought the news and went to the hospital to work, a word from the leader. I asked people stupidly again: How do you do public relations? What is the final result?
Yes. How to publicize! What is the result!
It is also a Central Asian country, but Kazakhstan is the regional focus. They not only have oil and gas, but also have strong military and political influence.
The Soviet Red Army left them 200,000 regular troops, one-fifth of the nuclear weapons, and more than 2 million square kilometers of land. In addition, the light industry left from the Soviet Union was equally weak. Heavy industry is really good. Among the five Central Asian countries, Kazakhstan is an obvious leader, and Nazarbayev is also famous for his scheming.
Not to mention the lack of power injected by China in Central Asia, that is, the strength is sufficient, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can't get oil pipelines... The oil pipelines spanning thousands of kilometers between the two countries not only requires the cooperation of PetroChina, but also the cooperation of powerful ministries and commissions such as the National Development The Ministry will never be infected with this kind of trouble. However, it is one thing for them not to be contaminated, and it is another thing for private enterprises to complete it.
If PetroChina does the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline, the officials who come and go can't escape even if they want to keep it a secret. The secret ability of administrative organs is like a sieve. But private enterprises are different. With so many masters coming to Central Asia to make a fortune, who can the embassy stop? Even if the Ministry of Foreign Affairs knows what Dahua Industry is doing in Kazakhstan, it will not care too much.
The problem is that when the leaders want to know the situation, they don't know it.
But if you are a leader, you have to reply.
To know the news of Dahua Industry, there is no other way to ask Sucheng.
However, Sucheng and one of his senior executives are all in Kazakhstan. If you ask the embassy staff there, you won't be able to contact them for a while.
In the end, Jiao Guoping, the new deputy director of the European Department of the ministry, took the initiative to ask for it, saying that he could contact Sucheng.
The governor of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said nothing and rushed him to the plane.
From Beijing to Urumqi, and then fly to Almaty. The small plane in the 1990s, needless to say, the bumpy noise alone is unbearable. This is the hard seat of the whole process!
When he arrived in Almaty, Jiao Guoping went straight to the temporary station of Dahua Industry without delay for a minute. He came to the door and said, "I'm your old friend of Su Dong. Now I want to see him."
Jiao Guoping rubbed his hands and looked at the doorman. The relationship with Su Cheng can't be said to be harmonious, but it is also an acquaintance. Of course, it is not to solve the difficulties of the headquarters leaders, but to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Jiao Guoping is quite familiar with Chinese diplomats in Central Asia, so he clearly knows that Kazakhstan is undoubtedly the core of Central Asia. Whether it is international status or geopolitics, if you want to gain a foothold in Central Asia, you can't get rid of Kazakhstan. Therefore, an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, if he has a hard relationship with Kazakhstan, can decide a lot of things in the Asia Department. Jiao Guoping is the deputy director of the European Division, but this does not affect his use of the incompetence of the Asian Division as his stepping stone to find a reputation as a "Corn Asian".
This kind of long and troublesome thing as an oil pipeline is a burden to others, and it is not necessarily for Jiao Guoping. Because he is not from the Asia Division, he doesn't care about the troubles. He just needs to take advantage of the opportunity and make a few big moves, so he can't be more active.
He was active, but the doorman invited by Dahua was not very active. The young man who graduated from the sports school lazily put down the Kazakh dictionary in his hand and said, "Your certificate, letter of introduction."
"Do you still need a letter of introduction?" Jiao Guoping frowned together like a straw.
"I don't want it at ordinary times. I don't want it when it's strange." The doorman opened his mouth in two Kazakh words. Although he is a small doorman, as long as he learns Kazakh, he can get a high rating. It may also be transferred to other departments. According to the promotion route within Dahua, this is the fastest way for low-educated employees to be promoted, faster than being a worker. Therefore, even during working hours. The doorman also strives to study. Anyway, his job is to upload and distribute, and there are other professional people to do security guards.
Jiao Guoping had no choice but to take out his ID card and work card. He said, "I'm from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I'm in a hurry. I don't have a letter of introduction. Can you give me some accommodation?"
"I'll ask. Who are you looking for?"
"Su Dong, Chairman Su Cheng?"
"The largest chairman?" The doorman was a little surprised.
"Yes." Jiao Guoping is full of hope.
The doorman said "Oh" and picked up the dictionary again and sat down. He said, "Let's go."
"What?"
"Su Dong returned to China this morning."
"I'm back in China!" Jiao Guoping's eyes were wide open.
"It depends on the time. It's almost there." The doorman said another string of Kazakh, which was obviously in a learning state.
Jiao Guoping was speechless. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said to the accompanying embassy driver, "Send me back to the airport and book a ticket for me. I want to go back to China."
The beauty of the oil pipeline is probably not yet realized by the liberal arts students of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is estimated that there is no one in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who can understand. Jiao Guoping also learned about oil pipelines in his early years because he knew about Sucheng, so he recommended himself for the first time.
However, after a long delay, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will recall it. There are many smart people in the world, not to mention ministries and commissions. Those liberal arts students of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs may not understand what an oil pipeline is, but even if they stare at him, they can't find anything.
Jiao Guoping didn't want to lose this opportunity, and the driver of the embassy didn't care. He hummed and said, "You can take you to the airport. If you want to book a ticket, you have to find the embassy."
"Ap to the airport first." There is no convenient mobile phone now. When he arrived at the airport, he called the embassy.
I left as soon as I came, and the embassy didn't want to spend two more air tickets for no reason. Jiao Guoping called back to China again, agreed on the reimbursement procedure, and then transferred back to the embassy... After being busy for a few hours, Jiao Guoping got on the plane from Almaty to Chong * Qing. Thanks to the rampant, there was one more plane, otherwise he would have to wait for tomorrow's flight.
Even so, when Jiao Guoping returned to China, it was dark. When he returned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Su Cheng had already contacted him.
Jiao Guoping was anxious and dry. He grabbed a familiar person and asked, "What did Su Cheng say?"
"Just talking about the oil pipeline from Kazakhstan to China, there are still some local things." Looking at his deputy director's position with a familiar face, he explained a few words briefly.
"What about the opinions of the department?"
"It's only a few hours. What can I do?"
Jiao Guoping was overjoyed. He said thank you and ran to the conference room.
When he arrived at the door, he heard the sound of Su Cheng in it. Jiao Guoping rushed in without thinking about it, so he rushed in and shouted, "Su Dong, I support Dahua Industry to develop Petrochemical Gas in Central Asia!" The construction of the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline can not only obtain a long-term stable supply of crude oil, but also reduce its dependence on Middle East oil and the Strait of Malacca, making China's oil supply safer. In addition, the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline can also strengthen the ties between China and Central Asian countries, which is definitely a good thing for the country and the people!"
The hard work of the past few days seems to have been spit out with this tone.
With his back to him, it was Su Cheng who sat in front of a row of leaders. He turned his head suspiciously and found that it was Jiao Guoping. Then he repeated in surprise, "Do you support it?"
"Support! I firmly support Su Dong's China-Kazakhstan line. Jiao Guoping found several leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the opposite side and said carelessly, "I am familiar with the situation in Central Asia. I think it is the right time to build the China-Kazakhstan line. Comrade Nazarbayev has just taken a firm position. It is the time to make a decision, and Kazakhstan is also short of funds..."
The leader on the opposite side coughed heavily: "Lao Jiao, let me introduce, this is Director Zhang of the Petroleum Corporation, and Director Lin of the Petroleum Corporation..."
Jiao Guoping just shut up. He is not reckless, but he was too smooth in the past, and he has not been so smooth in the past two years, so he has become faintly anxious.
Hearing the name of the oil company, he woke up: Dahua Industry is a private enterprise, and the domestic oil is in charge of the oil company.
According to the domestic system, whether Dahua can build oil pipelines can theoretically be decided by the head office. His support seems to be a little early.
Sure enough, Director Zhang from Daqing said dissatisfiedly, "Dos this comrade know a lot about oil pipelines? Does a pipeline that doesn't even have drawings have so many benefits?
If you know that there are other units in the conference room, especially the people of the Petroleum Corporation, Jiao Guoping may wait and see first. However, since he has shouted the banner of "support" excitedly, it will be too timid to be soft again.
Jiao Guoping looked at the leaders' faces and seemed to have no one reminded them of anything. Considering that the other party's identity was the " director", he didn't care about it again. "Haha" smiled and said with a smile, "My major is not oil, but I have also learned about some oil pipelines. Most importantly, I have The time. When the Soviet Union disintegrated, I was one of the first diplomatic officials to go to the CIS countries to establish a negotiation process. I can say very clearly that the China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline is not only meaningful, but also strategic..."
Jiao Guoping is an official who lives on his mouth, and he straightened out his name in one breath.
Zhang Changting has been a technician for half his life and an official for half of his life. The time to practice his speech is about the same as Jiao Guoping's, but when he is old, his brain is not so flexible. Obviously, after thinking about it, he said, "He is a private enterprise and is not qualified to be an oil pipeline. Then he should not act privately.
According to the system, Zhang Changting's words are right. If he replaces another official, he may not say anything.
Jiao Guoping is different. Like Su Cheng, he is Mr. Zhou's staff. He is familiar with the policy direction. He curled his lips and said, "What is emancipating the mind? What is realistic? The oil company hesitates, delays the fighters, and blames the vanguard generals. What's the reason? Do you still need to buy a pencil and stamp three stamps like a planned economy? I want to say that China's reform requires entrepreneurs like Su Dong, who are capable and dare to implement! The China-Kazakhstan pipeline is a practical benefit for the country. Kazakhstan's oil fields are many powerful countries in the world. It's not easy for Dahua Industry to get back an oil pipeline for us! Director Zhang, if you can't tell the difference between good and bad, I have a way. Let's open the door and invite some reporters to write the whole story in the newspaper and let the people of the whole country judge it.
