Wang Lianjun, the general manager of Changning Infrastructure, is Su Dongyuan's father-in-law, Wang Lizhen's father, and Su Xing's grandfather.

Although he had expected it, when this relationship was revealed in front of Su Cheng, he still had to take a deep breath to regulate his mood.

This also prompted him to make a faster decision and go to Shanghai.

The South Bund wharf is lined with mansions.

Regardless of the past and present life, Sioux City is the first time to Shanghai*. As soon as I got off the plane, I was taken to the old pier, and all I saw was a chic mansion. There are English ** garden houses with red tiles and whitewashed walls, as well as Gothic luxury villas with teak walls, and it is not uncommon to see difficult buildings in neoclassical style with cumbersome decorations.

He Yuwei got off the bus with Sioux City and introduced: "There are many masterpieces of modern architecture in Shanghai, and there is the title of the International Architecture Expo. It is full of well-known mansions built by wealthy businessmen and dignitaries, with good materials and excellent design, and it is estimated that it will be no problem to use it for another 100 years. The Boya Mansion we are here today was built by the Minister of Education of the Republic of China...... When I'm going to retire, I'll buy a mansion in Shanghai. ”

"If these mansions can be bought and sold, you'd better buy them early. Su Cheng looked at He Yuwei and said with a smile: "When you retire, you can't afford to buy a mansion with your salary." ”

"Housing prices in Shanghai have always been very expensive, and in the days of the concession, the sublease fee for renting a house alone cost hundreds of oceans. At the current price, my salary is not enough. He Yuwei gossiped and led Su Cheng into the bungalow.

The hall is bright, and the invincible river view of the Bund is in front of you. He Yuwei's father, He Chengjun, is over half a hundred years old, short and thin, but his eyes are bright and his eyebrows are thick. If you dye your hair white, there is no problem with making a fairy wind bone.

He Chengjun stood up and greeted him. smiled: "I finally saw Director Su, otherwise I would just listen to Wei'er's description." I can't imagine how young people who have just graduated can achieve today's career. ”

Su Cheng shook hands with him and smiled, "What do you think of meeting you?"

"Strong-willed and risk-free. He Chengjun looked Su Cheng up and down, paused for a moment, and said: "I heard a saying two days ago, the so-called mobile land refers to the offshore drilling platform, right?"

"Yes. ”

"That's a good point. He Chengjun praised the festival and said: "If we can survive COSCO Shipping." I will also strive to expand the territory of China. Let the land flow. All over the world. ”

He said in a high tone, facing Su Cheng: "After the merger of the three state-owned enterprises, the first thing I want to do is to organize a nationwide offshore oil equipment battle, and actively catch up with the footsteps of foreign enterprises." And develop their own advanced technology, when the time comes, I hope that Dahua Industry can accept the invitation, we jointly research technology, but also share technology. ”

This is actually a kind of promise.

However, He Chengjun said it very well, and his starting point also moved Su Cheng.

As far as he knew. Since the second generation of offshore oil drilling platforms, China has not engaged in the third, fourth and fifth generation offshore oil drilling platforms, but directly jumped to the sixth generation. Although it seems that it has not been affected, the achievement of engineering technology does not mean that the technology patent belongs to you. Loss of these patents. It not only means the patent itself, but also includes a new technical system extended by the patent. In order to get around them, it costs more money and consumes more time......

If we can engage in an oil war, not to mention catching up with the wave of the third generation of offshore oil drilling platforms, we will be able to catch up with the fourth generation, and we will be able to develop oil in the South China Sea by ourselves, and if we can advance a little further, we will even be able to engage in high seas oil or even polar oil. This kind of accumulation is passed down from generation to generation, and 10 years in advance is ten years in advance, and unless the opponent stops, it will be achieved overnight.

"If it is really a national battle, we Dahua are naturally willing to participate. Sioux City gave an affirmative answer.

He Chengjun said happily: "Okay, with Dahua participating, we are much more at ease." When the time comes, we can imitate the model of you and PetroChina, we provide a large number of technical personnel, Dahua Industrial provides advanced concepts, the two sides share technology, and enjoy the ownership of technology according to the proportion of investment. ”

COSCO Shipping is an engineering company with a general interest in technology. Of course, this is the simplicity and kindness of state-owned enterprises in the 80s. In 20 years, He Chengjun will definitely not propose such a cooperation plan.

Sioux City almost couldn't help but agree immediately. As a result, he has three technology companies to work on offshore drilling platforms. The Offshore Oil Research Institute, which is shared with China National Petroleum Corporation, focuses on shallow sea oil drilling, Dahua Shipbuilding, which shares with Haliburton, can focus on the overall structure and high-tech accessories, and the company shared with COSCO Shipping can focus on engineering processing and production and construction......

In this way, the three companies basically cover the entire project of the offshore oil rig, and the number of researchers is quite sufficient by the standards of the 90s.

Sioux City was thrilled to think of the opportunity to stand on the offshore oil rig he had built, drill for his country's South China Sea oil, and give his middle finger to the monkeys jumping in the distance.

He endured it for half a minute before he said with a very slow movement: "I agree with Mr. He's way of cooperation." But I still don't understand one thing, how much impact will joining Dahua Shipbuilding have on this merger?"

"It's decisive. He Yuwei said on behalf of her father: "There is not much gap between COSCO Shipping and Changning Infrastructure in terms of capital, profits and assets, so if anyone can get investment from a Fortune 500 company and share technology, there will be a certain amount of points." ”

Worried that Sioux City didn't understand, she added: "Haliburton's main business is an oil service provider, and it is a Fortune 500 company, which is indeed very rare, if there is such a company to cooperate with us in depth, the evaluation branch will be very high." ”

Su Cheng nodded silently.

The first time a Chinese company entered the list of the world's top 500 companies was 10 years later in 1999. That year, Sinopec ranked 73rd. However, even after 10 years of development, Sinopec was able to enter the world's top 500 companies that year, but it still relied on the 1998 enterprise reform, including Shengli Oilfield, which was classified as an oilfield enterprise of China National Petroleum Corporation. There are more than 20 second-level enterprises of the same level as Shengli Oilfield.

In contrast, COSCO Shipping and Changning Infrastructure are the main department-level factories, and they will have to merge to be comparable to the level of Shengli Oilfield, and it may take a few years to catch up with its scale.

It can be said that in 1989, the world's top 500 companies were as tall as a mountain for the Chinese business community. COSCO Shipping is as difficult to peep as Mount Everest.

For the He family, it may not be difficult to find a Fortune 500 company to invest in, but it is not easy to find a Fortune 500 company related to engineering and shipbuilding industry to invest.

Su Cheng chewed and thought carefully, and said, "If you want to get investment and technical cooperation from a Fortune 500 company, why do you have to join Dahua Shipbuilding?"

He Yuwei was puzzled: "Wouldn't it be easier to join a Sino-US joint venture company?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "You asked Jensen, do you think it's easy to join?"

"I believe that Director Su is a person who has a way. He Yuwei bent down and said.

Su Cheng said noncommittally: "If it is a pure joint venture company, will it sound better than a Sino-US joint venture?"

"Of course. However, Dahua Shipbuilding is doing high-end offshore drilling platforms, and it has the full support of Haliburton. In addition to taking advantage of the situation, we also hope to learn some real technology. He Yuwei said very sincerely.

He Chengjun was also nodding lightly.

Su Cheng nodded and said: "Dahua Shipbuilding can make a joint venture with Haliburton because they hope to enter the high-end offshore oil equipment industry, which we lured with dynamic positioning and other technologies. If COSCO Shipping dilutes Haliburton's shares, it will lead to an increase in the decision-making power of Chinese companies, which will inevitably affect their strategic planning, which cannot be compensated for by one or two million US dollars. Therefore, it is more difficult to join Dahua Shipbuilding than to re-establish a joint venture factory. ”

He Yuwei drew inferences and said: "Dahua Industrial doesn't want to thin up its shares, does it?"

"Of course. Su Cheng admitted and said: "In order to study dynamic positioning, Dahua's Offshore Oil Research Institute has invested a lot of manpower and experimental costs, and we don't want to sell it for one or two million dollars." Re-establishing a joint venture will not affect your goals, but will also reduce the difficulty, if you are worried about spending money in vain, choose a better direction. ”

He Yuwei looked at her father and didn't say anything.

He Chengjun was silent for a long time and asked, "Can Director Su guarantee that we can build a joint venture with Haliburton?"

Su Cheng immediately said: "I will use all my strength to help COSCO Shipping." ”

"Well, I believe in Director Su's ability. He Chengjun glanced at him deeply, turned to He Yuwei and said: "You have to cooperate well, ask people to give people, ask things to give things, first to win investment, and then to build a factory as soon as possible." ”

He Yuwei opened her mouth and said in surprise: "What kind of joint venture company do we do?"

“fpso。 "Sioux City had clearly thought about it in advance.

"Offshore FPSO tankers?" He Yuwei began to think.

After thinking for a few minutes, Su Cheng said: "FPSO can be used for offshore LPG processing, storage and transportation, and offshore drilling platforms are two types, but they are also high value-added offshore engineering products, which are very suitable for COSCO Shipping's business type." ”

"FPSO is indeed the mainstream of offshore oil development in the world. He Chengjun moved his body and hesitated: "FPSO is also the main development direction of Haliburton, can they agree?"

"It's man-made. Sioux replied in the affirmative.
