Chapter 1139: The Helmsman of Qingtian Oil
Because of the production quota and contribution of oil workers, an oil worker with more than 10 years of service can get 260 roubles a month, while a university lecturer can only get 170 roubles at that time, which is 40% less than the salary of an oil worker.
Only by becoming an associate professor can you have the opportunity to break through to more than three hundred rubles.
As for bank accounting, which is not physically and intellectually demanding, it is only one hundred and thirty or forty rubles per month.
The ruble was still very strong in the seventies and eighties of the Soviets, and it was not as hard to wipe the ass as it is now.
One ruble is worth 1 lunch in the cafeteria, 33 cans of lemonade with added syrup, 5 cream ice creams or 10 milk ice creams, 20 tram or subway rides, 20 morning movies.
And five rubles is enough to cover a family's rent for a month, and eighteen rubles is enough to fly from Moscow to Leningrad, seven hundred kilometers away.
For fifty rubles, you can take a family on a two-week trip to the Elbrus National Park.
In addition, the Soviet oil workers were given a month of recuperation at public expense each year, and they spent a month in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers or sandy beaches.
Other workers also receive a certain amount of publicly-funded recuperation, but the time and rank are far inferior to those of oil workers.
However, oil and forestry workers, because their industries are able to export on a large scale, are also able to obtain household appliances, special rations and imported goods through internal channels.
This in the eighties this was called "direct delivery".
In addition, commodity appraisers and store managers in shops, waiters in "international travel agencies" (hotels for foreign tourists), dentists, butchers in markets, craftsmen in television repair departments and general service stores, captains of seagoing voyages, etc., were also high-paying occupations in the Soviets.
However, in the Soviets, people lived in a society with equal financial potential, and the gap between the rich and the poor was not too great compared to the capitalist countries of the West, where there were no real millionaires, and there could be no real millionaires.
It is just that some officials, presidents of institutions of higher learning and research institutes, directors of collective farms, directors of state-owned enterprises, editors-in-chief of newspapers, and so on, enjoy different degrees of preferential treatment.
For example, they can take official cars, live in state-owned villas, go on vacation to well-served health resorts, eat delicious food, and so on.
Moreover, these are linked to positions, once power is replaced, officials naturally cannot enjoy a certain treatment for a long time, and it is even more common for villas and cars to change owners.
High wages, good benefits, high social status, that is why the little children of the Soviets wanted to become oil workers, which is where the Berezovsky oil worker complex comes from.
And when he came to the Chukotka Peninsula, he found that the treatment of these oil workers was not only far less than before, but even embarrassed.
No way, who made these wells and refining equipment too old.
Not to mention the low production efficiency, and the total oil production is still pitiful, if there is no oil production, the treatment of these oil workers will naturally not be much better.
"Over the years, in fact, every year the government has allocated a sum of money to them to renovate and upgrade the equipment, but it is all swallowed up by the damned oil field managers and the Soviet bureaucracy combined, and the actual money spent on equipment renovation every year is not even one-fifth!"
"The maintenance workers in the oilfield can only say that they can only make a small fuss, barely maintain the operation of the equipment, and many times, they have to tear down the east wall to make up the west wall, and dismantle some parts from some scrapped or more old equipment to use, and this equipment is like a stitch. ”
The more Berezovsky spoke, the more bitter his face grew.
Seriously, he really hated and felt distressed to see these oil fields and oil workers so poor, lonely and embarrassed, not to mention that these are now their supernatural industries.
Looking at Berezovsky's appearance, Fang Chen suddenly asked: "Berezovsky, let me ask you, do you plan to stay and lead these oil fields and oil workers?"
Hearing this, Berezovsky was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect Fang Chen to throw such a question at him.
Fang Chen chuckled lightly, turned his head and looked at the rows of oil workers in Wuyang and Wuyang in front of him.
These oil workers all look different, but in Fang Chen's opinion, they all have one thing in common, that is, their eyes are full of desire, they are eager to be changed, earth-shaking changes, so that they can return to the glorious change.
"There is no doubt that the oil company is a very big company, and if the full potential is unleashed, no, even if it is only half released, it will be bigger and more effective than it is now, and I can now be sure that the management of DynaSky is a big problem for any manager. ”
Fang Chen turned his head and looked at Berezovsky seriously.
He now controls 40% of Russia's oil reserves, which is the same as that of the United States, so if he wants to extract all this oil, he naturally needs a lot of employees.
But the problem is that just from these dozen or so oil fields, oil refineries, sales companies, and geological exploration research institutes, more than 80,000 employees have been transferred to him, which is more than half of the more than 50,000 employees that Qingtian has had before.
With so many employees smashed at once, it is a headache for any manager, or even the entire management, to explode.
What's more, there is still a huge problem in Qingtian Oil, the equipment is old and damaged, and it is simply unable to play the productivity that should be played, and it is urgent to repair the original equipment to normal working conditions, and then the scrapped will be scrapped, and the new one will be replaced with a new one, if these equipment cannot be produced in Russia, it also needs to be imported.
So which one has good equipment and whether you are allowed to import it or not is a big trouble to deal with if it is not on the embargo list in Batumi.
As an international organization that imposed embargoes and trade restrictions on red countries by the West, Pakistan was firmly stuck in the neck of the Soviet Union and Huaxia and other red countries.
Fortunately, as Gorbachev actively embraced capitalism, in 1990 Batumi drastically relaxed restrictions on the export of high-tech products to the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries, reducing the number of embargo items from 400 at the beginning of its establishment to 120, and by two-thirds in mid-1991, and fewer and fewer countries were subject to the embargo.
That is, Huaxia is also subject to a strict embargo.
However, as long as the embargo on Russia in Batumi is relaxed, it will be enough for Fang Chen.
Some of the equipment needed by the Qingtian Communication Laboratory must be imported, but the equipment on the embargoed list is imported in the name of Russia, otherwise, Fang Chen will have a big head.
This can be regarded as a good thing that Gorbachev has finally done, and it is even worth writing about, after all, Gorbachev has never done several commendable good things in his life.
That's why Berezovsky asked him for $500 million.
But what Fang Chen wants to say is that this is far from enough.
The oil industry is undoubtedly an industry that requires a lot of manpower and capital investment.
You must know that in later generations, PetroChina and Sinopec, the two giants, combined with more than three million employees, and this still does not include shareholding companies and restructuring enterprises.
Now the 80,000 people of Qingtian Oil, where to go, to say that the little thing is to lift the Qingtian Oil, it is simply the comparison between ants and elephants, and his current needs cannot be matched, and you must know that the oil reserves he has now are still 1.6 times that of Huaxia.
However, there are two main reasons why there are so many employees in PetroChina and Sinopec.
The first is that they have a large number of directly operated gas stations all over the country, and you can see this gas station almost every few kilometers.
If there are more gas stations, then there will naturally be more employees, and obviously Qingtian Oil does not have so many gas stations in Russia, and Russia does not have so many cars to refuel, so the number of employees is much worse.
The second is that these two giants hold a large share of oilfields abroad, such as PetroChina, in Russia, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Iraq, Iran, Indonesia, Singapore and other 19 countries to carry out 50 project cooperation, in 2017, PetroChina's overseas business to achieve oil and gas equivalent production of 189 million barrels, accounting for 13% of its oil and gas production that year.
These also require a large number of employees to maintain operations, but this situation does not exist in DynaSky Oil, and now DynaSky Oil cannot even maximize the efficiency of these oil fields in its own hands, let alone have oil fields abroad.
However, when the development is on the right track, he can consider letting Qingtian Oil go to Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, the CIS and the former Soviet countries to circle the oil fields.
And now, he just wants to keep up with the future Lukoil Company, which needs almost 400,000 employees to keep these oil fields, refineries, and sales companies running.
In the previous life, as Russia's largest oil company, Lukoil had nearly 200,000 employees, and Fangchen was more than twice the size of Lukoil, so it needed at least 400,000 employees.
Such employees need to be recruited and managed, so many equipment needs to be eliminated and replaced, and Fang Chen is really relieved if there is no competent person to run Qingtian Petroleum Company.
And he thought about it and felt that the person who was really capable and had the skills to take the helm of Lukoil was Berezovsky.
With so many assets, especially in such a chaotic new company, which may not be buried, if the person in charge can't be ruthless and decisive, then this company will not only create benefits for Qingtian, but even if it doesn't make trouble, it will become a bloodletting for Qingtian.
Just like Afghanistan and Iraq are for the United States, the annual military spending of the US military in Afghanistan is equivalent to three times the total income of the Afghan people.
Seriously, if the U.S. military distributes all this military spending to the Afghan people, and the income of the Afghan people skyrockets by three times, will Afghanistan still be able to make such a fuss? Can it still be hailed as an imperial graveyard?
The same is true for him, he bought the company in this way, how can those moths who were originally in the oil fields and refineries be so willing to cooperate with the work of Qingtian to make Qingtian oil better.
Thinking of this, Fang Chen couldn't help but sigh lightly, he could not blame those moths for what they had done before, as long as they could work well for Qingtian now and make a contribution.
But the question is, can they do it?
Impossible, since they have gained benefits in the hands of these people, then they cannot give up easily, and may even make trouble until death.
It can't be helped, this is human nature, and it is almost impossible for people to give up what they have already gotten their hands on.
This requires the rulers of Qingtian Petroleum to be ruthless.
And in terms of ruthlessness, especially the use of unconventional means, the whole company, including him, is far inferior to Berezovsky in comparison with Berezovsky.
And the reason why Qingtian Oil was able to be integrated so quickly this time, and he was able to come over to inspect, Berezovsky contributed a lot, and it can even be said that it was Berezovsky who decisively fired some troublesome crude oil fields, and the senior management of the refinery had this neat scene that he could see now.
At this time, the cold sweat on Berezovsky's forehead couldn't stop flowing, he really didn't expect Fang Chen to have the intention of handing over the Qingtian Oil to him.
Although he had done his best for this Qingtian Oil before, it was only because this was the task assigned to him by Fang Chen, and Qingtian Oil was of great benefit to the development of the entire company.
The other thing is that I can't bear it.
I can't bear to be at the top of the chain of Soviet professional contempt, and it is also a profession that he and many Russian children have admired the most since childhood, and become such a depressed appearance.
I can't bear it, these huge devices are just exposed to the wind and sun, and disappear in the corrosion of time.
He thought a lot, but he didn't think about him coming to be the president of this new company.
But I have to say that as soon as Fang Chen's words came out, he really felt a heartbeat.
There is no doubt that compared with the Russian Automobile Union, Qingtian Oil is a bigger stage, and it is a stage that allows him to show his strength and talents.
And he has been in charge of the Russian Automobile Union for so long, and the Automobile Union has long been on the right track, and he almost does not have to worry about large and small affairs, and several vice presidents have already finished their work, and he is responsible for keeping an eye on it and doing regular inspections.
To put it mildly, he is not as interested and attentive to the specific management of the Automobile Alliance as he is in the management of the Second Security Department.
But if he leaves the Auto Alliance, doesn't that mean that the second security department has nothing to do with him.
