Chapter 181: Russia’s Upshift
Li Cong's point of view is very clear. Even if the energy group is not the largest and strongest company in the country, it must become the most well-known company with the most exposure. But there are a few people who have truly survived forever, and there are very few of them. They are either people who have made outstanding contributions in a certain field, or they have created a new dynasty. Li Cong's goal is to create a new era in the energy field. In the new era, it is necessary to build momentum in the early stage.
Li Cong also firmly believes that after this visual bombardment, he will be more famous than some Hong Kong and Taiwan stars when he walks on the street. It is really rare for Li Cong to be so showy.
After arranging other things and looking at the empty table, Li Cong felt that he was really a good boss. Everyone in the company had their own affairs, but he had nothing to do. He only needed to make some decisions, but he had to be absolutely Ensure that the company's line is correct, otherwise it will be useless no matter how capable the people below are.
Li Yan is a good executor, so Li Cong has always asked his sister to be the second in command of the group. You can tell her what to do, and she will do it very well, but you can't let her decide what to do. You may come up with many ways to do it and don't know which method to use.
Just as Li Cong was lamenting his success, the OPEC Member States Conference began. The purpose of this meeting was to let Russia, the world's largest oil-producing country, bleed hard on oil. Every time OPEC announced oil When the price increases is the moment when Russia makes money, so OPEC decided to fight a tenacious and protracted war with Russia. All the funds were invested in the development of new oil fields, and then OPEC collectively lowered prices to return to previous production levels. If Russia is willing to continue to lower prices, there may be a way to survive, but its own losses are not small, but the greedy polar bear is He would not choose to sell at a reduced price. Moreover, this time the United States was the broker. China, Japan, South Korea, and Western European countries all participated. People from half the world came to deceive the Russian family, so he couldn't help but lose.
The energy group is also well prepared. Once China, Japan, and South Korea announce that they will not import oil from Russia, it will be their most dangerous moment. The central government has assured them that the supply of environmentally friendly oil can definitely meet the needs of South Korea and Japan. According to the needs of the two countries, none of the Asian countries hope that the polar bear can rise, so they have negotiated and signed a letter of intent to expand imports with Russia, and the excuse is the same, that is, the Middle East countries need to significantly increase the amount of oil imported from Russia.
Then Russia will definitely think that this is a good time to make money. In addition, the three Asian countries have always eaten more and occupied more energy imports. They will definitely not worry that the oil they produce cannot be sold. The three countries will also import some symbolically. After all It's not enough to just do some superficial work, and the polar bears won't do it without the actual polar bear.
OPEC and the United States have a good calculation, but the Chinese are better than them. Obviously, OPEC knows the existence of the energy group, but they never thought that such a group would be formed with more than a dozen countries. The United Group is fighting against each other. Russia is currently their biggest enemy. The energy group can only be a competitor under normal circumstances. The central government's intention is very clear, and Li Cong should use this gap to win the energy import business of Japan and South Korea. , so that the two countries can be controlled in the future, at least they can’t follow the Americans in everything like they are now.
Sure enough, on a sunny day, OPEC Chairman Hosni Mubarak announced that OPEC would cut production by 10%. The specific reason was that due to aging oil wells, equipment needed to be updated. All member countries complied with the implementation, and international oil prices instantly increased by 7%. , The world's major stock markets fell.
As expected, Mubarak and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev broke up after discussing.
Russia believes that it has no obligation to cooperate with OPEC's actions, and the current domestic economic situation does not allow oil production to be reduced. Now the sale of oil and arms is Russia's largest source of foreign trade. If it reduces oil exports, it may be difficult for government officials to pay wages. , the Russian Ministry of Energy announced that Russia will increase oil exports, and sent a note to all oil importing countries, swearing that it will never cut production.
China, Japan, and South Korea announced that they will support Russia in building a new strong blood transfusion plan for the Eurasian continent, including a standard fast electrified railway to Vladivostok, two super-large oil pipelines with an annual transportation capacity of 20 million tons to northeast China, and diverted to South Korea Japan.
The energy group just announced that it would guarantee the use of environmentally friendly oil in the country, and promised not to increase the price, which won Li Cong a very good reputation in the country.
The Korean National Oil Corporation urgently negotiated with the Russian energy department, hoping to increase oil imports. The Russian side asked for a price increase of 50 US dollars per ton, and the Koreans expressed that they could accept it.
All OPEC members have strongly condemned Russia's behavior in their own public opinion. Russia stated that it would not accept threats from any organization or country, and would put the interests of the Russian people first. It also stated that it would expand the production of major oil fields to meet export needs. And trumpeted his role in the recovery of the world economy.
"Hmph, you silly Russians, you can still laugh now, and I'll see your new equipment launched in a few months, and you can still laugh." Li Cong looked at the ugly Russian Minister of Energy. expression, while thinking angrily, in the early stage, I also had losses. In order to cope with the large-scale situation, Korea National Oil Corporation is also reducing the import of environmentally friendly oil and importing a large amount of oil. This has aroused great resentment in South Korea. Some people think that the government should increase the import of environmentally friendly oil instead of importing oil, which is a kind of damage to their good living environment.
Most of the energy group's environmentally friendly oil has been stored, and all daily turnover is less than half of what it used to be. This kind of life will continue for a while, but Li Cong has spent most of the group's working capital, so he can only pray that OPEC The aspect counterattacked early. Kim Mi-in had already complained to Li Cong several times. South Korean nationals even wondered whether the National Petroleum Corporation had fallen out with the energy group. Otherwise, why would they choose oil instead of environmentally friendly oil.
However, the sales in Taiwan are guaranteed. If there are so many free shares, it is better to give them all to Taiwan. In a few months, the Kong family and Taihongmen will make a lot of money. They are happy and hope that OPEC will never Do not announce the resumption of production, this plan should never end.
It wasn't until the end of Russia's expansion of production that some wise men in Russia realized that Russia seemed to have entered a huge trap. The people responded to the call of the country and gave up their rest time and worked overtime for oil. However, they were the original oil importing countries. They shouted to increase oil reserves, but the actual import volume seems to be not as much as they promised. This black gold can't be turned into mud, right? This is probably what most Russians who realize this think.
The government has even organized an acquisition team to enter Russia to acquire a large number of oil fields. Now it is waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity when Russia cannot support it, and a moment when all Russian funds are broken.
