Azerbaijan's intelligence organizations are not idle, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs was one of the first institutions to be purged after Aliyev came to power, which not only took it into its own hands, but also expanded it as soon as possible. It is also natural that Aliyev was the head of the KGB in Azerbaijan 30 years ago, and he does not control the army, if he does not even control the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the special police force, it will be too difficult for that person to do.

Intelligence officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are scattered throughout Baku and are busy investigating foreign companies on a daily basis. In this world, there is no oil company that abides by the rules, especially in Central Asia, where the oil companies that abide by the rules cannot survive at all, and the officials at the bottom can make it difficult for these companies to move an inch, and the state-level eating and taking cards is even more powerful, if Azerbaijan does not have the financial support of Sioux City, it still has to find other financial owners to pay, if not, the government will have to collapse.

Therefore, the main thing that Azerbaijan's Ministry of Internal Affairs does, or can do, is only to control the work and not let foreign companies go too far in collecting intelligence, which is almost their greatest pursuit. On the one hand, this is due to the national conditions of the country, and on the other hand, it is also due to its strength. There are too many foreign oil companies in Baku in recent days, and there are huge and powerful companies, and they are not the ones that the intelligence agencies of the country can check if they want to, and they can find out whatever they want.

It should be said that although the oil companies of various countries are begging Aliyev in order to obtain Azerbaijani oil, this does not mean that they have no bottom line, but the bottom line of the oil companies has always been lower than the normal level.

Rather, it is the sensitivity to power and money, which is the exclusive property of oil companies, and a small country that has just become independent has not yet touched the foundation of this nerve.

Companies such as Dahua Industrial, although they have developed rapidly, have established an information bureau very early. However, Sioux City always dared to let them collect public information, that is, the special situation of Azerbaijan, which gave Sioux the idea of collecting secret business information.

For Dong Feng and other members of the Dahua Information Bureau, this is a rare opportunity to experience. On the one hand, Sioux City's relations in Azerbaijan are hard-rooted, from Prime Minister Aliyev to officialdom, he has a channel of contact, so that. There is no fear of being tried in public for collecting business intelligence. On the other hand, the geographical distance between China and Azerbaijan is not too far, both psychologically and practically, which contributes to a possible stop-loss.

However, Dong Feng and his Information Bureau did not have many manpower to do secret intelligence operations. In fact. There is only one person on the front line, that is, Liu Yi, who copies the materials, he is the only one who knows the inflow and outflow of materials, in addition, even Dong Feng does not know the specific matters, let alone the specific pieces. As for the people who gather the information, they are just doing ordinary money and power trading. And the person who delivers the information doesn't know what he's transmitting. Of course, the three people in charge of translating the materials also knew the contents, but they were far from the front line and saw the materials that had been copied and processed. During his time in Baku, there was also a lack of opportunities to go out.

This simple and simple mechanism is actually the way most companies collect secret business intelligence, which is boring. There is not much passion and joy other than being more cautious and careful. Most companies can't afford to do sophisticated covert intelligence gathering. Because ordinary company employees do not necessarily have a big heart to undertake such affairs, and employees with a big heart do not necessarily have the corresponding qualities.

Liu Yi of the Dahua Information Bureau is one of the few personnel who is suitable for front-line intelligence work, and in fact, even Dong Fengren, the director of the Information Bureau, is not necessarily suitable for front-line secret intelligence work.

Judging from Dahua's scale today, one front-line intelligence officer, several quasi-first-line intelligence officers, and about ten second-line auxiliary personnel are the largest scale it can bear.

The giant oil companies could have done much more, and before and after World War I, before and after the American Civil War, the intelligence agents of the mega-corporations played a role that national intelligence officers could not. However, with the advent of increasingly strict social and moral standards, the giant oil has gradually faded out of the intelligence community, and in its place they influence state agencies, through the collection of economic and commercial intelligence through national intelligence organizations, and in this regard, the best known are the Japanese Foundation and the Japanese Intelligence Organization.

Despite all the inconveniences, despite the dangers, Sioux City has adopted the approach of a commercial intelligence organization, and the biggest reason is the value of the Aziju oil field.

Fortunately, Liu Yi is a young man full of romantic feelings, smart, bold and diligent. Even if it's just a person in a closed room, constantly doing nearly the same copying work, he doesn't tire of it.

More pieces were sent to safe houses.

Liu Yi was making copies and packing boxes.

The huge German machine rang incessantly throughout the night, so much so that Liu Yi quickly regarded it as a harmless background sound.

This kind of physical work only reaches its peak after seven days of work.

However, before Liu Yi had time to complain, a special piece was delivered.

"For this copy, you have to cover up some words. This is one of the few words spoken by a correspondent.

"Cover up for what?"

"The page numbers of each page must be folded up. In addition, every few pages, the same symbol will appear, and it will also be covered. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I don't have time, so I'm doing as I talk. The correspondent was in the room outside, opened the piece, and said while looking for it: "This piece is issued in a limited edition, I don't know what the content is, but each piece has a number on the page, accurate to the person who got it." In addition, the symbols on the page are the seals before copying, which are generally stamped on the particles or punctuation marks, which are different for each person, and the number is uncertain, so be careful not to miss them. ”

"It's so troublesome. Liu Yi said, the whole person was already excited, this is exactly the job he wants.

The correspondent was a little anxious and said: "The piece was sent suddenly, and it was only allowed to be seen for 3 hours, and the delay on the road was too long, and I had to leave within 10 minutes." ”

Liu Yi's eyes lit up: "Good tricks, if you don't know, you will definitely show your bottom." ”

"No, the KGB's means. At the mention of this word, the correspondent snorted and stopped talking.

Liu Yi was full of energy. Immerse yourself in bitter marks.

Ten minutes later, the correspondent gathered his things and left. Not long after, another correspondent passed downstairs and retrieved the piece.

Although he didn't know what was inside, Liu Yi was still very excited.

He knew what he had done, and that feeling was exactly what he needed.

The next day, Liu Yi got a new safe house and bought a new photocopier. This deepened his understanding of the importance and made him feel more and more comfortable.

At the same time, Su Cheng and the others also saw this piece as quickly as possible

This is an analysis of the reserves of several oil fields by the Azerbaijani government.

As early as the 60s, Soviet Russia began to explore the Caspian region. Due to various constraints, Caspian oil has not been developed.

By the end of the 80s, the declining Soviet Russia could no longer afford to continue large-scale oil exploration, and the divided republics were even poorer.

As a result, the Azerbaijani government still relies on geological reports from the former Soviet Union more than a decade ago. Although it is a bit behind in terms of time, it has to be said that the exploration of the former Soviet Union is still very valuable. In particular, the analysis of geological conditions, some of the terrain and landforms that were considered impossible to produce oil in the 70s. By the 90s, according to the results of new research, it was possible to turn into oil-producing topography.

In addition, most of the offshore oil. The former Soviet Union, although it did not have the capacity to exploit, had the ability to make preliminary surveys. This information provides an excellent analysis of the situation of the 11 oil fields sold in Azerbaijan for the valuation of the price. It will be of great help.

With the information obtained by Sioux City from other sources, the strategic division of Dahua Industrial. It has been possible to give a draft bid.

This speed is much ahead of the companies that are still desperately bribing the ministers of Afghanistan.

Su Cheng carefully read the bidding draft, took out a pen, signed his name carefully, and said, "Let's start preparing now." ”

"Start now?" Zhang Chao was stunned when he heard this, and now he will start competing for standard preparations, which will undoubtedly alarm other companies, and maybe Baku.

Su Cheng nodded clearly and said: "We are stupid birds flying first, and we finally have a little advantage, if we don't take advantage of it, we won't be able to catch up with others later." ”

Li Lin said tentatively: "Then our public relations department, should we talk about cooperation?"

Sioux City's goal is the Azijiu oil field, but under the temptation of 11 oil fields, it is unrealistic and easy to attract attention by voluntarily abandoning the other 10. Therefore, it is more appropriate to choose one or two partners to jointly bid for other oil fields.

Su Cheng thought for a moment and said, "In addition to the French Finer Company, find another one." ”

The French company Fina also has a beautiful representative of the beautiful woman, but it is clearly not as beautiful as Emma, the market analyst of Total. Looking back now, the two are like the gap between the supporting role and the protagonist.

However, it is impossible to determine the partner company according to the beauty of the beauty. In the eyes of Su Cheng, it is a dangerous existence to be able to come up with a large amount of money and bid for the Azijiu oil field, but the Fina company, which is the second oldest in France, is a natural ally.

Li Lin glanced down at her notes and asked, "What about another company in the Americas?" I talked to Petrobras representatives, and they were very interested in joint bidding. ”

Brazil has made great achievements in offshore oil and is a BRICS country with stable development. However, they lack strength in Central Asia, and alliances are a necessary option.

Su Cheng nodded and said, "If it's convenient to coordinate, it doesn't matter if there are a few more companies." But to be clear, we have the power to act alone. ”

Li Lin comprehended: "Bid according to each oil field." ”

"That's right. ”

Speaking of this, the emotions of everyone present became extremely enthusiastic.

Li Lin said with a smile: "I will contact the companies after I go back, by the way, the French Elf oil company has also sent someone to contact, hoping to talk about some cooperation matters......

"Declined. ”

"Well, I'll call Mrs. Zhong Gu in the evening. ”

"Mrs. Zhong Gu?" Su Cheng thought as if he had a familiar look.
