Chapter 300: If you can't sell it, you won't get a discount
As the ceremony entered the "First Sailing Ceremony of the VLCC Oil Tanker at Lanfang Oil Port", a beautiful white lady of manners, while leading the way of Mr. Yang of CNOOC, commanded:
"Mr. Yang, please here, according to the process in a while, Mr. Gu smashes the ship on the left, you smash the ship on the right, don't be mistaken. ”
The ceremony has actually been explained a long time ago, but the master of ceremonies still has to remind the guests when it comes to the end.
"Don't worry. Mr. Yang nodded slightly, and glanced at the row of hostesses in front of him who were holding a few bottles of champagne on a red satin tray.
Because today is the first day of the oilfield launch ceremony, in fact, as early as a week ago, a new 300,000-ton VLCC tanker was docked at each of the two terminals. The ships then spent five days in advance filling crude oil with the wharf's pumping equipment, which was just filled and ready to take off last night.
Since it is the launch ceremony, it must be that the ship will be able to drive after the ceremony, and there is no reason to temporarily refill the oil.
And the origin of these two ships, both built by the Jiangnan shipyard in Hujiang, this is the first time to use, and they are both new ships that can not be newer, which can be regarded as a prize. The industrial level of Lanfang can't build such a big ship, and there is not enough order demand. In the future, if there is a small fault in the oil tanker of this level and needs to be repaired and maintained, it will have to go back to Huaxia to deal with it.
But fortunately, Huaxia is only a stretch of legs from Lanfang, only 2,000 nautical miles, what can be the situation, and there is no need to spend a lot of money to build a super-large shipyard in Lanfang. So far, Lanfang's ship repair operation capacity has only reached 80,000 tons of wet docks, and there is only one dry dock of 50,000 tons.
It is said that when the new ship is launched, it should have been a ceremony of smashing champagne at the Jiangnan Shipyard, but Gu Kun told the people from the Jiangnan Shipyard for the needs of the ceremony, keep this ceremony, and come to the "broken peace" before the first shipment of goods.
Anyway, the high-level people in the Jiangnan Shipyard are all seniors of the Department of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering of Shanghai and Jiangxi Jiaotong University, and they are all alumni for Gu Kun, this bit of is not worth mentioning at all, as long as Gu Kun's people speak, the other party agrees.
"Qiang Lang ~ Qiang Lang ~" two crisp sounds, two bottles of 1971 Champagne from Amiens in Picardy were smashed at the stern of each boat, and the scene immediately resounded with warm applause, and the celebration went smoothly.
Mr. Yang's hand strength is relatively small, and the ship has already been launched, not the kind in the dry dock that can be very close, so he just dropped the champagne on the side of the ship near the stern, and it was almost not smashed.
Gu Kun's divine power was amazing, he directly threw a bottle of large champagne twenty or thirty meters away like a grenade, and accurately hit the vertical rudder surface of the rudder road out of the water, and at first glance he was an old connoisseur-
The champagne was smashed in the shipyard, because the boats were not launched, so the bottom of the ship was exposed, and everyone agreed to smash the red paint below the waterline. At this moment, the tanker is fully loaded, so the red paint below the waterline is basically submerged underneath and is not exposed. Gu Kun had to smash the red paint, so he could only smash the rudder.
Although the onlookers only looked at a small detail, they could still see that Gu Kun had not forgotten his roots.
Even if he is twenty-four or five years old, he is no longer the sea-running boy who rode the wind and waves seven or eight years ago, but he still has the feelings of an old captain and is meticulous.
......
After the ceremony, as usual, the guests were entertained, and the guests could take the opportunity to exchange their prospects for the industry, and by the way, they would like to inquire in detail about the specific measures mentioned in Gu Kun's official speech at the ceremony, "the Lan side will introduce more mutually beneficial and reciprocal measures to give back to the aid of China".
The guests who participated in today's ceremony were not only Mr. Yang's group of CNOOC and even COSCO who carried it, but also many leading domestic travel agencies, friends such as China Travel Service who were responsible for cross-visa business, and some tourism tycoons from Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea and the Middle East came to learn from them.
These tourism guests are more concerned about "how Gu Kun will deal with the black swan that just occurred in the European and American tourism markets in September, and how to maintain the continuous growth of tourism business in the future, after Gu Kun took advantage of the pre-sale of the Lanfang Hotel when it first opened and ate up the hotel's full booked dividends."
Gu Kun's previous good luck in the cultural tourism industry has given him a legendary reputation in the industry, and everyone is willing to listen to his guidance.
However, today's ceremony is after all to celebrate the opening of oil companies and the use of oil ports, not the ceremony of tourism, so those guests can only queue up on the side, and the connecting banquet should not be too extravagant and wasteful.
So, the banquet was set up in a port authority building on the pier, and it didn't even go to the hotel.
Gu Kun also wants to save face, just said so many high-profile people who share weal and woe with oil workers and share development dividends, it is not good to turn around and leave the masses to go to a seven-star hotel to eat and drink.
The wine used for the banquet is still the batch of Amiens Picardy champagne that was smashed on the bow of the ship just now, with a term of 30 years - it's not that Gu Kun can't afford to buy the older ones, mainly because the champagne is a low-degree, sparkling wine, which can't be aged for too long like white wine and red wine, and the 30-year-old champagne is already the limit, and this bubble has run almost the same, only very fine and delicate bubbles, but the taste is much smoother than the champagne within ten years, almost with a bit of mead, and it doesn't look like champagne at all.
Mr. Yang, who sang the leading role with him, was not an extravagant person, he was afraid that he would be too extravagant and easy to gossip, but when he looked at Gu Kun's casual banquet in the form of a self-service cocktail party, the first thing he brought out was champagne and snacks with champagne, and he was immediately relieved.
"It's just champagne and snacks, and it won't be grabbed and said to be extravagant and wasteful, and it's Party A's treat. Mr. Yang secretly thought in his heart, "But these champagne and snacks look so exquisite, Gu Kun has a noble background here, and any little thing is ingenious." ”
While thinking about it, Mr. Yang learned Gu Kun's posture as the locals, and picked up a small snack shaped like a pancake fruit from a tray next to the champagne tray.
At first he was a little surprised when he saw this thing, at first glance he thought it was a pancake fruit, but later he noticed that this pancake fruit was much more delicate and elegant than ordinary ones, so he estimated that it should be a French crepe with some roll filling.
After all, Mr. Yang is a person who has become an executive of CNOOC, and he has traveled to France many times, and he has seen a lot of crepes on the streets of Paris. He knew that the French had a habit of pairing certain crepes with champagne, especially in the food culture of the Picardy Champagne region.
However, after taking a bite, he realized that this "pancake fruit", which seems to be a little more delicate than the street dots, is definitely not as simple as it seems.
"Isn't it supposed to roll a slice of bacon? When I eat on the streets of Paris, I think the vegetable slices should be sautéed in butter and thinly sliced mushrooms, right?
Don't you want to be so violent, you have added small onions, mushrooms are enough, even if you use white truffles, the smell of white truffles is mostly covered by small onions and wasted. ”
There are several other exquisite ingredients, and Mr. Yang can't eat them, so he roughly estimated that with Gu Kun's selection of ingredients, such a small "pancake fruit" roll, the cost of materials alone will be at least a few hundred yuan.
And this is just the ingredients, if you count the exquisite cooking skills, and sell it in the restaurant of a seven-star hotel, then what is the price?
In the end, it is the true aristocracy that has been bathed in the aristocratic atmosphere from the top of the head to the spring point at the bottom of the feet, and it has been inherited from the end of the Ming Dynasty.
Even if you are limited by the occasion and can't be extravagant, you can only eat pancakes and fruits, and you can eat pancakes and fruits as if you can't afford to eat them.
After a little champagne and canapés, this less formal cocktail party quickly moved on to the spying on the meat.
Mr. Yang and Gu Kun were gossiping, and a tycoon from a tourism giant next to him came over and talked to Gu Kun.
"Gu, remember me, JTB's Yamazaki. Can I delay you for two minutes? ”
Gu Kun turned his head to look, he was not very familiar with the person opposite, and only remembered after thinking about it for a while.
After all, Mr. Yang on the side is a person in the oil industry, and he has no impression of this kind of cross-circle friend, Gu Kun hurriedly helped him introduce him with a very eye-catching face: "Mr. Yang, let's get to know each other, this is Mr. Yamazaki, senior vice president of Tokyo JTB Group, JTB Group is a long-standing tourism group with a history of nearly 100 years, of course, it is also the largest in the whole country, equivalent to the domestic China Travel Service, I have in-depth cooperation with them." ”
Mr. Yang looked up and down, nodded and shook hands with the other party, and even said a Japanese greeting. He was well-informed, and after listening to Gu Kun's brief introduction, he knew that this Yamazaki was not a particularly rich tycoon, but a professional manager.
After all, JTB is also equivalent to a state-owned enterprise in Yuben, and from the company established in the last year of the Meiji era and the early Taisho year (1912), to the present, there is still a group of managers messing around.
After the greetings, Yamazaki asked with concern: "Gu, I have read the financial report of your 'Lanfang Culture', and Lanfang's tourism industry is mainly operated under the Lanfang Culture. Last year, the gross profit of Lanfang Culture's tourism industry was less than one billion US dollars, and the net profit after tax was only 200 million US dollars after tax after deducting the amortization cost and financing interest.
Now, looking at the mining plan you just announced, you have to sell more than 80 million barrels of crude oil a year, and now the price of oil has also risen, and it is currently more than $40 a barrel, and even if the war in Afghanistan ends immediately, it will be nothing more than $40. If it turns into a quagmire, there may be considerable room for growth.
Then your annual oil sales revenue is at least 4 billion US dollars, compared with this amount, your tourism revenue is not too worth mentioning, I wonder if you will still work as hard as the years before the oil for the construction of the tourism industry in the future?
As a collaborator, we hope that you will give a sincere answer so that we can allocate market development resources. ”
"Of course, we will continue to make every effort to build the tourism market of Lanfang! And we will feed back the income of the oil industry to the relevant construction, please rest assured that the future of Lanfang will definitely develop rapidly every year, so that everyone knows what is the prosperity of heaven." Even if you do your best, whoever helps me attract more customers, I will also give them more rewards, which will never change. ”
