The carriage shook, and several people were already slightly drunk. Yu Zhu leaned against the wall of the carriage and seemed to ask Jing Jian very casually: "Director Jing, what do you think is the biggest obstacle to this project?"

Jing Jian also seemed to be a little drunk: "The biggest obstacle is, of course, raw materials and sales. China is an oil-poor country and needs a stable supply of oil and gas overseas. There is a shortage of petroleum products in China's market, so what is these 300,000 tons? Even if there are 10 more, the development in 10 years will still be digestible. However, the policy gate is really tight, and just one foreign exchange may make investors retreat. ”

Of course, there will be no such good thing as Wang Yongqing, because there is a meaning of united front over there. Anyway, the main purpose of Jing Jian is to make trouble, and it is best to force the "Haicang Plan" that failed in the previous life to start construction smoothly.

Yu Zhu nodded and agreed with Jing Jian's statement, but he definitely couldn't do such a thing. Suddenly remembering what Jing Jian had just said, Yu Zhu diverted the topic and asked: "Stable overseas oil and gas supply? Do you still want to occupy overseas oil fields? Isn't that imperialism?"

"Ahem. Jing Jian was choked, "Old Yu, don't say that my ideological consciousness is not high." If our country could be imperialist, I would be able to die of laughter in my dreams. ”

Laughter rang out, and the people at this time did not have a sense of urgency about oil resources. After all, China is still an oil exporter, and every year it buys a lot of foreign exchange for the country. Just three years later, however, China became an oil importer and, just over two decades later, surpassed the United States as the world's largest oil importer.

......

Slowly, several people lay down on their beds. Jing Jian's eyes were half-closed, but his mind was constantly thinking. Somehow, he suddenly remembered Han Jie's marriage. Due to his own influence, more and more changes have begun, do you still have to be superstitious about the reborn golden finger?

Of course, big historical events can't be influenced, but what about small aspects? Jing Jian suddenly thought that in the coastal area of Heilan City, Fusoya, wouldn't a big oil field be discovered in the future?

Jing Jianjian opened his eyes instantly: "Old Yu, are you asleep?"

"No, I don't. Where's your kid going today?"

"Hey, hey. I would like to ask about the offshore drilling technology in China?"

"You're still asking the right question. Yu Zhu sat up from the bed, "Daqing can fight the complex geology of several thousand meters, and the seabed of several hundred meters must be fine." It's just that there is less experience, after all, offshore operations only began in the 70s. There are also equipment that is relatively backward and inefficient. If you want to know the details, I can introduce you to a few friends of CNOOC. Are you really interested in the oil fields?"

Jing Jian smiled and waved his hand: "It's not that I'm interested, but I feel that the price of oil will rise sharply." The situation in the Middle East has not been very stable, and I am afraid that there will be constant wars there. ”

The interest in African oil is not a whim of Jing Jian. Due to the lack of attention to Africa at this time, in addition to several oil-producing countries such as Libya and Nigeria, the international community generally believes that Africa is also an oil-poor region. There is simply no investment in exploration. Of course, the complicated political situation in Africa and the economic colonization of Africa by European and American countries are also very important reasons.

Maybe European and American countries are using Africa as a "reserve grain", which is already in my warehouse anyway, and now the Middle East and other regions are enough, so they will continue to store it. If you need it in the future, you can always take it out and use it. Therefore, it is strange that it has become a blind spot.

However, Jing Jian knows that in fact, African countries have huge oil reserves, even no less than those in the Middle East. With future exploration, mainly China's strong involvement, new oil fields are emerging one after another. Moreover, most African oils are of high quality, low sulfur content, easy to refine and process, and are very suitable for the production of automobile fuel. The average oil recovery cost is very low, generally only 3 or 4 US dollars per barrel, and the success rate of oil drilling is extremely high, as high as 35%, much higher than the world average of 25 percentage points.

Most of Africa's oil fields are located on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean or off the coast of West and Central Africa, far from the mainland, and can avoid the impact of disputes between right and wrong. In addition, due to the late discovery, it is unlikely that African oil will unite with the outside world, and it will not be limited by OPEC production at all, and energy security will be guaranteed to a certain extent.

In particular, it is worth mentioning that African countries have basically implemented a policy of opening up to the outside world and are very welcoming to foreign direct investment, making it possible for foreign businessmen to invest in oil development in the African region.

Yu Zhu didn't know what Jing Jian was pondering in his heart, but after listening to Jing Jian's words, he instead cared about other contents: "The war in the Middle East? Isn't the Iran-Iraq war over?"

This time, Jing Jian did not act as a god stick, and did not talk about the upcoming Gulf War. I just chatted with Yu Zhu about the wars that took place in the Middle East. In the end, the two chatted with relish about the hottest military topic in recent years - the Star Wars project.

"Xiao Jing, do you think the Star Wars program will succeed? If it succeeds, the atomic bomb will be useless, right?"

"I don't know if it will succeed, but I feel that the technological leap of this plan is too big, and the United States is a bit ambitious. ”

"Oh, you mean it won't work?"

"Not exactly. A small part of them will make a difference. For example, GPS, computer IT research, etc. From the point of view of boosting the U.S. economy, the plan should be considered a great success. But from a military point of view? It's not that exaggerated. ”

"Oh?" the conversation between the two aroused the interest of several other people in the box, and they joined in one after another, "Is this really the case? The United States is so advanced in technology, it should be realized, right?"

Jing Jian explained with a smile: "You may not know it, but I once gave a lecture on the new technological revolution brought by computer IT to the film industry. In fact, the film industry is only a very small application, and the same will be true of other industries, and some of the habits that you see as inherent in them will be drastically different with the help of computers. And the Star Wars program seems to be ahead of its time on the surface, with deathlight, electromagnetic cannons, and anti-satellite weapons or something. But it is impossible for anyone to take into account the third industrial revolution brought about by information technology, so some designs are quite ahead of their time, and some are quite backward. Leads to ......"

Seeing Jing Jian shrugging with a smile, Yu Zhu and the others were all full of doubts: "The Third Industrial Revolution?" It was the first time they had heard this new term.

Jing Jian nodded: "The first two industrial revolutions were all power revolutions. And this time it's not in terms of motivation, it's about the transmission of information, it's all about data, data, data!"

"What about ......," someone asked again, "Director Jing, can you give an example?"

"For example?" Jing Jian thought slightly, "Hearing is false, seeing is believing." So, what are your big and small projects, and I'll find a friend to do a demonstration for you for free?"
