Chapter 421: Tehran in May
Xu Teng's arrangement for Unilever to acquire the daily chemical business of Yongtai Chemical Group, and then the acquisition of Jiangtai Group's drinking water business, in fact, also considered many factors, one of which is that Chen Yongnian is not good at engaging in the FMCG industry. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yongtai Chemical is a capital- and technology-intensive industry, in general, there is more capital investment in larger and more advanced production capacity, the cost is lower than others, and the products are better than others, then it will definitely win.
Chen Yongnian, a co-partner from the 80s, has been in the coal and real estate business for decades, and he still has a hand in capital mobilization and control, including negotiations with provincial and municipal governments and major customers.
Let the turtle king handle brand marketing, corporate image, product design...... This is simply the life of the turtle king, the turtle king has been in the real estate business for so many years, and basically has never made a gold medal real estate project, and it is really good to play land reselling and speculation.
Even if it has been in the industry for more than ten years, the turtle king is in the field of Yongtai Chemical, playing speculative trading, hoarding and pressing goods, when to ship, when to limit production, when to expand production, the turtle king is better than anyone else, more ruthless than anyone else.
The biggest characteristic of the turtle king is that he can endure, basically, except for Chen Anbang, a sworn enemy, there is no problem with whomever he cooperates, even if it is Chen Anbang, he can pretend to be a lifelong friend, and he has turned into a jade silk more than ten years ago.
Xu Teng said unceremoniously that more than ten years ago, King Turtle also pretended to be loyal to him and Mr. Xu all his life.
In the past account, who is right and who is wrong, everyone understands in their hearts, and let the past pass when they say to each other, it is all mutual comfort. Not to mention anything else, the big brother of the old Jiangtai department...... Huang Xinzhou said that he would be a brother for the rest of his life, and in the end, he not only robbed the turtle king's first love, but also gave the turtle king such a big green hat, and the turtle king will never forget it in his life.
Mother Xu also borrowed a lot of money from the turtle king back then, and after making a fortune, she almost bankrupted the turtle king, which is estimated to be the turtle king's endurance.
The turtle king does business, there are advantages and disadvantages.
Therefore, Xu Teng basically selected by himself, and set up a set of teams for the turtle king, and dismissed many of the turtle king's old subordinates.
It's not a thing after all.
Xu Teng's final decision was to use Unilever to acquire Yongtai Chemical's daily chemical business, reintegrate the team, and re-promote new co-partners.
According to Xu Teng's long-term plan, Unilever will eventually merge with Mengyu Group, which belongs to the FMCG industry, and after the channel integration, the bargaining power with supermarkets across the country will be stronger, and on a global scale, it can also reduce marketing costs through the integration of logistics and channel systems.
The problem now is that Unilever has promoted a new joint partner, and Lao Niu from Mengyang Group is also a joint partner, who will have the final say after the merger?
This is a problem, however, you can't think too far ahead when doing business, and you still have to think about the immediate problems first.
Throughout April 2014, Xu Teng's main energy was spent on dealing with Unilever's problems, and the entire senior team was greatly renewed, replacing a large number of senior executives between the ages of 40 and 50, half foreigners and half Chinese.
The new co-partner did not exceed the expectations of all parties, that is, Wu Yiwei, the executive president of Yongtai Chemical Group, a Taiwanese who first worked at Johnson & Johnson, and later moved to Yongtai Chemical as vice president of the consumer goods business unit, responsible for the acquisition of black toothpaste company and cold acid ling, and he was also responsible for the operation of the acquisition of Sibao and Naais.
The business level is very high, and the English is also very fluent, and the style of doing things is very stable.
Chen Yongnian is not very stable in many basic business fields, this person is very stable, and the two have always been relatively gold partners.
Xu Teng also observed for many years, and finally pulled this person out and was solely responsible for the business of the entire Unilever Group, especially in the field of FMCG, brand marketing and channel integration, which is also the most stable business ability of this person.
ALL IN ALL, THIS IS A CANDIDATE WHO WILL NOT BRING MORE SURPRISES OR WORRIES, AND AT THE SAME TIME, THIS PERSON IS MORE NICE AND GOOD AT BRINGING NEW TEAMS TOGETHER.
What Xu Teng wants to do is to match Wu Yiwei with a few young deputies, who are good at network marketing and the type of FMCG communication in the new era, and form a new team with Wu Yiwei that combines the old and the new.
Personnel arrangement is actually the most complex issue in a company.
If there is a problem within the senior team, then there is a problem with how the company can do it.
Xu Teng spent a whole month dealing with the integration of Unilever's new team, and even found time to participate in their group activities, more than 20 people went to Weizhou to play a rafting competition, and then participated in a paragliding jump, which was very thrilling.
As a result, everyone else was fine, but Wu Yiwei was not lightly scared.
Xu Teng organized these two activities to remind everyone that although Unilever is huge, the internal accumulation of problems is quite complex, and if you don't play well, it will collapse.
In May, Xu Teng had to go to Iran, and he had a headache, and the people below didn't negotiate anything at all, but he still had to go.
As it turned out, Iran's side was tricky.
The day after Xu Teng's visit was confirmed, Iran Electric Power Company canceled an agreement it had negotiated with ZPCON on the grounds that the automation control system software provided by ZPCON did not meet the technical specifications at the time of the bidding.
Oh, Xu Teng is so scared.
When he arrived in Iran, Xu Teng didn't plan to say a word about this matter at all, if he liked to buy it or not, if he didn't buy it, he would buy Siemens' program-controlled platform, and a set of six million dollars was not much money.
Because this matter is more complicated.
Iran's entire national grid system in recent years, from power generation, transmission to distribution, is basically completely configured by the central control group, one is relatively low in price, cost-effective, and the other is that the central control group is more intelligent in the field of network control, which is beyond Siemens and Honeywell, and is not a new area that ABB can compare.
To put it simply, the central control group is to expand the power grid business, although each subsystem can be compatible with Siemens and Honeywell, but it may not be completely matched, and whether it can be compatible with the success depends on the system control capabilities of Siemens and Honeywell.
That being said, in general, it certainly doesn't match.
In the past, Siemens and Honeywell took the initiative to mismatch, deliberately mismatched, and tried their best to prevent the central control group from doing this kind of network-wide regulation business, which has been fighting for many years in China alone.
In the end, Honeywell is completely out, and Siemens and ABB can still mix.
Now I want to match, but the result is that the central control group does not want to match, and every time the system is upgraded, Siemens will be excluded first, and it is not compatible, so you can change my subsystem.
In the previous Sino-Swiss negotiations, a consensus reached was that ABB could be matched and compatible, and first partner together to kill Siemens.
At first, Iran felt that the concept of whole network control was very novel and advanced, and it took several years to introduce a full set of equipment and control systems, but even the quotation of the central control group was too expensive.
Conscience of heaven and earth.
This is too expensive, really when all the high-tech can be the price of cabbage, to tell you, before Siemens does not have a full set of configurations, the central control group will not be the price of cabbage, if you are not satisfied, you still go to buy Siemens!
In fact, Iran has been secretly copying the high and low voltage control system and switchgear system of the central control group in recent years, and getting a pirated software and copycat switchgear in the field of power grid.
Xu Teng said something unpleasant, you also want to overtake in the opposite direction with your copycat ability, and your ambition is really big!
Iran's cancellation of the contract, in the final analysis, is nothing more than two things, first, take Siemens in exchange, and change Siemens in the future; second, what is the reason why I did not succeed in copycats, you can make it clear, we spend money to introduce technology for localization.
On his first day in Iran, Xu Teng met with the new president, followed by meetings with the leaders of various other departments in Iran, including the heads of the state-owned enterprises that the Huayin consortium has partnered with in Iran.
In the middle, he also met with the head of the Iran Electric Power Company, but he just didn't talk about the contract of the Abhar gas-fired thermal power plant, the multi-million dollar contract, what did he talk about.
If you mean to completely replace the whole network control system of the Central Control Group, then replace it.
Xu Teng came over this time, and the sincerity is still very strong, such as the car, the equity issue of the two joint ventures, if Iran wants to increase the equity, he can make concessions, including some truck business, ship power and electronic systems, as long as the national level is negotiated, he can transfer some technology.
If there is no agreement at the national level, Iran should not expect to get more from him.
Xu Teng knew very well that Iran insisted that he come to negotiate in person, not because he welcomed him and admired him more, but because he concluded that he was just a businessman, and as long as he threatened his market share and gave him more money, he could easily do it, at least easier than negotiations at the national level.
Because Iran can only cooperate with China and Russia, the business scale of the Huayin consortium in Iran is indeed relatively large, to be honest, many of them are monopoly businesses, and there is basically no competition.
Having said that, without the support of the national level, the Huayin consortium would not dare to do business in Iran, what if it is targeted by the US imperialists and gets sanctions?
If the business scale is too large, there will be trouble, and there are actually a lot of places where Iran can blackmail the Huayin consortium, the problem is that Iran has no other suppliers to choose from, and there are two top companies in the world that do the regulation of the whole network, one is Central Control, the other is Honeywell, and Honeywell cannot do business in Iran.
You say, is this mutual blackmail interesting?
If you talk to the government, if you can negotiate it, there will definitely be no problem on my side, but if you can't negotiate properly, is it useful for you to threaten me?
Tehran in May is already hot, dry and rainless.
The only five-star hotel in Iran is located in Tehran's Chalehemeydan, which is one of Tehran's oldest old towns, surrounded by many ancient buildings and museums, including the earliest discovery of Yuan blue and white porcelain in the nearby Gulestan Palace Museum.
Iran does not allow wholly foreign-owned enterprises, and even the approval of joint ventures is difficult, this five-star Hyatt Regency is the only foreign-owned hotel in Iran at present, and it is also a Sino-Iranian joint venture.
Doing business in Iran is very troublesome, basically, any leader is an out-and-out leader, even if it is the person in charge of a state-owned enterprise, it must be bigger than Xu Teng's spectrum, and Xu Teng has to visit each other.
Iran's foreign affairs department initially arranged for Xu Teng to visit the supreme head of state to bow down...... Xu Teng directly refused, no!
For this matter, the people on Iran's side are quite surprised, we will arrange the highest diplomatic treatment for you, you don't want it?
Xu Teng can only say that this is the primary reason why foreign heads of state refuse to visit your country.
After a week in Iran, Xu Teng basically made the trip worthwhile, visiting all the most important museums in Tehran on and off, and signing some worthless investment and sales contracts.
Tonight, the Iranian side will send a special person in charge to negotiate, no matter what the outcome of tonight's negotiations is, Xu Teng will end his trip and return to China.
As for the Syrian side, Xu Teng does not need to go in person for the time being, anyway, he has already negotiated with Syria at home to buy a long-term bond of $1.5 billion from the Syrian government.
When he returned to the hotel in the evening, Xu Teng did not plan to give up the habit of drinking a glass of cognac at night because of the prohibition policy.
By the floor-to-ceiling windows of his bedroom, he draws the thick curtains, leaving only a small gap, and sits here, sipping a glass of cognac, looking at the dark sky in the distance, and thinking about it.
In fact, on the first day of his arrival in Iran, when he met with the new president, Iran had already shown "sincerity" and proposed a new transaction contract to transfer the Yadawalan oilfield, which was originally handed over to Sinopec, to the Huayin consortium for development.
In 2007, Sinopec and the Iranian Ministry of Petroleum signed a cooperation framework agreement, but has not been able to actually put into production, in addition to the complexity of the early project, the main reason is that the oil prices continue to rise, so that Iran feels that it has sold at a loss, and all kinds of moths to raise costs.
FMG, a subsidiary of the Huayin Consortium, also has several oil fields in Iran, which are not large-scale, and most of them were signed before 08 years, and there was also a very complicated process in the middle.
In short, Iran's so-called contracts are all printed paper that can be changed at any time, and like North Korea, you are blackmailed one at a time.
In the past, the international oil market was a situation where the seller was king, and it was okay for the seller to be unruly, and it was okay to move up the ladder at any time.
In fact, since March 2014, international oil prices have fallen sharply, Iran's judgment may be problematic, obviously showing a very "sincere" appearance, the actual contract to Xu Teng is still based on the price of $110 per barrel in 2013.
Xu Teng roughly read the contract, basically, if the international oil price is lower than 120 US dollars per barrel, the business is a loss, because there are many customary additional conditions on the Iranian side, so in the end, it is equivalent to working for Iran in vain, except for transporting some oil back abroad, there is no benefit.
If the international oil price falls to $50 a barrel, FMG International Resources Group, a subsidiary of the Huayin consortium, will go bankrupt at a loss.
Even such a contract did not make Xu Teng very angry, there is nothing to be angry about, it is this kind of self-righteous country.
When Xu Teng finished drinking the glass of cognac in his hand, Nadazam Zangane, the new minister of Iran's oil department, arrived at the hotel and entered Xu Teng's suite with several assistants.
In the past week, Xu Teng has already had a meeting with the new minister, because the other party's English is very good, and the conversation went well.
The two shook hands and met.
In order to show sincerity, Xu Teng deliberately used Iran's characteristic tea art, but used a kind of Jin Junmei black tea, which is similar to Iran tea in terms of craftsmanship, to entertain the new minister.
Iran must put sugar in tea drinking, in the past I also like to drink tea with sugar, but now it is a little more flexible, directly add granulated sugar, there is a special sugar pot.
Xu Teng didn't need to add sugar, he drank it directly, poured a large glass, and drank it like beer.
After a few words of greeting, Minister Nadazam took a new contract from his assistant and handed it to Xu Teng, "Chairman, you go through it first, if there are any dissatisfactions, including the details of the contract, we can hand it over to others for negotiation." ”
What he meant, that's it for the general contract, and the details and terms will be discussed slowly.
This is the way of doing business in Iran, first give you a general contract that is basically acceptable, and then increase step by step, how much equipment is required to be domestically produced, how many workers must be recruited, and how much salary and benefits are provided...... Step by step, until you can't stand it anymore.
In fact, if Iran does not do business, even if it is sanctioned by nuclear weapons, many businesses are still willing to involve international giants on a large scale.
Xu Teng didn't want to read the contract at all, but he still had to read it again, and after turning a few pages, he put it back and replied to the other party bluntly, "I can't do this business, I'm sorry." ”
"Chairman, I think you'd better read it all, it's definitely going to be good. Minister Nadazam was a little unsure of what Xu Teng meant, thought about it, and reminded Xu Teng, "Although international oil prices have been decreasing recently, we all know that as long as China's economy is still accelerating, the demand for oil is endless, and your domestic oil reserves are also declining sharply, and the reserves available for exploitation are very small." ”
"Who said that?" Xu Teng was strange and surprised, "We have a lot of shale oil reserves, and our heavy oil treatment technology for Venezuela is also very mature and still improving. Heavy oil is expensive to refine, but for us it is also the world's largest demander of bitumen. Therefore, our demand for heavy oil is actually higher than that of light oil. In the global shale oil sector, the scale of our investment is very good, and my current technology can basically maintain at $40 per barrel, even if you include tax costs, the profit margin is still very large. In Africa, all of our fields are at a much lower entry point and development cost than in Iran. ”
"You have to remember that I'm not Sinopec, I have a 30 percent share of the existing shale oil and gas market in the United States, and the vast majority of it is extracted at a cost of less than $50 a barrel. So, I'm very frank, I don't have much interest in the oil fields. Xu Tengqing clearly told the other party that he didn't want this oil field at all, and also suggested that the other party continue to negotiate with Sinopec to solve the problem, don't use him as a bargaining chip, what is his attitude, Sinopec knows everything about it.
"I'm pretty sure that the chairman actually knows that we are sending money to Mr. chairman, and this is a good contract, and I establish that you accept it, and maybe tomorrow, we will change the decision. "Minister Nadazam is 70 years old, and this is not the first time he has been in the Cabinet, he has been the Minister of Oil in the 90s of the last century, and this time after the cabinet change, he is back as the Minister of Oil.
The old man has dealt with too many international oil companies, and he is convinced that oil is black gold, and everyone wants it, and the chairman of the Huayin Consortium in front of him is no exception, but the price is a little higher.
"Tell me, which time, which day, you haven't changed your decision?" Xu Teng was very calm, although in Tehran, any official could give him a dismissal, and there was no friendliness at all, he still didn't care about sarcastically mocking Mr. Minister.
"You mean refuse to cooperate?" said Minister Nadazam when he finally put down his teacup, angry.
"It depends on which way you think about it, and as I have reminded you, my company's total assets in the United States are more than $100 billion, and under your contract, I doubt that this project will make more than $200 million a year. Even if this project lasts for 50 years, do you think it's worth the risk?" Xu Teng's visit to Tehran was really bad.
He simply will not come to the extent of Tehran again.
"We know that your relationship with the United States is very good, but I didn't expect it to be so good, Mr. President, I must remind you that China and Iran have a common enemy, you should loyally stand on our side, not serve the United States, the dollar will only corrode your soul and your faith. "Minister Nadazam is really angry, very angry, and his lines are read absurdly.
"Your Excellency, you must understand that I am an entrepreneur, a businessman, and I came to Iran to do business and make a profit, not for faith, not for my soul. I have 900,000 employees to take care of, 170,000 of whom have master's degrees and 33,000 who have doctorates, and they have high requirements for the quality of life. I visit an average of 7 countries a year, and I can tell you that there has never been a visit that has been so bad, and I don't mean very bad, but it has never been more absurd and terrible. Xu Teng estimated that when he said this, the other party would immediately pull out a pistol and shoot him, but he still had to say it.
"My point of view has never changed, if you want technology transfer, you have to negotiate with our government, and without government guarantees that these technology transfers will not be sanctioned by the United States, I will not negotiate any technology transfer agreement. If you think that canceling the contract will make me give in and admit defeat, then just do it, the Iran market is very important to the Huayin consortium, and I will not give up easily, which is why I am willing to accept the invitation to visit your country, but you must know two things, first, Any businessman knows a basic truth, that is, $100 billion is greater than $5 billion, and secondly, it is a terrible thing to threaten me, because I am definitely a person who is dozens of times more willful than you, and my country protects me well wherever I am, including my company and our business. ”
Now that he has talked about this, Xu Teng doesn't mind making things clear thoroughly, the Huayin Consortium is the most important symbolic enterprise in China, and none of them is more important than the three barrels of oil combined.
Iran can cancel several contracts of the Huayin consortium to show the anger of the "Iranian people", but if it is a large-scale cancellation of contracts, it will directly amount to announcing the rupture of Sino-Iranian relations.
Xu Teng can guarantee that the happiest person at that time will definitely be the United States, and if not, he will resume a special honeymoon friendship with the White House because of his refusal to transfer technology to Iran.
Minister Nadazam's face turned pale with anger and glared at Xu Teng angrily.
Xu Teng didn't care, he leisurely picked up the teacup and drank his Jin Junmei black tea, he didn't want to look at this old minister at all, it was no big deal, wasn't it just billions of dollars in profits a year.
Both sides did not speak for almost a few minutes.
Xu Teng was glared at angrily, put the teacup in his hand and played with it, waiting for Minister Nadazam to give an accurate explanation, what do you want? Anyway, his plane will leave Tehran tomorrow morning, and he will not come back a second time in the future.
This is why some countries have huge growth potential, but not much international capital is willing to invest, which is why Xu Teng does not think that Iran will be able to take off after the nuclear sanctions are banned.
There are too many problems in this country to invest properly.
The Huayin consortium and the three barrels of oil can't bear it, isn't it pure death for normal Chinese companies to invest in Iran?
It's the same in Cao County, whoever goes will die.
The investment advertisements in those development zones are playing beautifully, going to a group of Chinese enterprises and dying to a group of Chinese enterprises.
Xu Teng told the truth, his treatment in Iran was much better than three barrels of oil, and he could still make money, and the net profit of billions of dollars a year was no problem, and he had nothing to worry about, because many of the contracts of the Huayin Consortium in Iran were monopoly businesses.
Iran always wanted Xu Teng to feel that he had a choice, but he didn't, because Iran's transfer was very inconvenient.
The Huayin consortium is the only industrial consortium in the world that can meet the vast majority of Iran's needs, and its transactions with Iran are carried out through a number of subsidiaries under the umbrella of three barrels of oil, and Iran pays directly for the bills, and in 2013 alone, the Huayin consortium and three barrels of oil transported 175 million barrels of crude oil from Iran.
There are no transactions in US dollars at all.
First, the Bank of China Consortium has never substantially violated the embargo framework of Security Council sanctions, but is only on the verge of the unilateral sanctions framework of the United States; second, these are bilateral transactions with a national background, and if they have opinions, they seek out the government, and they have the courage to impose sanctions on the Bank of China Consortium and the three barrels of oil, and that is a big problem in Sino-US relations.
These two points determine that without negotiations and agreements at the government level, the Huayin consortium will never transfer civilian technology that can be used in the military to Iran, and certainly will not easily sell technology that can be profitable in the long term to the other party.
Love to buy or not to buy.
Xu Teng dared to do this kind of business because of the motherland, the big backer of the five permanent members of the Security Council, and his special status in the economic and trade systems of the United States and China and the United States.
As the saying goes, "if you don't punish a sergeant, you can't get a P5 under international law", if it is ABB, Siemens, Toshiba, Mitsubishi, Samsung...... If you do this kind of business, you will have been killed by the United States for seven or eight rounds a long time ago.
Xu Teng believes that the top level of Iran understands the truth, so don't say foolish things to understand people, don't think that he is a pure businessman, and he will be out of oil as soon as he is false.
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Iran is not restricted by nuclear sanctions, Iran wants to maintain the normal development of the country's economy, and there are many things to buy, but the money in hand is so small, and there is still no choice.
Not every country is China, these products of the Huayin consortium, what kind of copycat do you take?
Iran's industrial level is still okay, the automobile industry is good, cement, steel, aluminum, and glass are the first in the Middle East, but these equipment are imported from China.
In the past, you thought that the products that China could make, you could also make, and you could copy, that is, the Chinese manufacturing you were exposed to was limited to the middle and low-end, and now, what China can make, you really can't make.
Iran is now unreasonable, insisting that Xu Teng transfer some of the technology, and they are also willing to bid for the technology, but not with clearly marked US dollars, not with one hand to pay and one hand to deliver, but in a way they think is very smart, first get the technology and then cut those benefits step by step.
What a clever country it is.
Xu Teng's understanding is very simple, for China, there are only two countries in this world, one country is China, the other country is a foreign country, and the same is true of Iran.
After more than ten minutes of silence on both sides.
Minister Nadazam finally decided to break the silence and asked Xu Teng a more important question, "Mr. President, if you must wait for us to reach an agreement with your government before starting technology transfer negotiations, it is also acceptable, and I believe that with the friendly relations between China and Iran, there is nothing inappropriate between the two countries." ”
"Yes. Xu Teng raised his hands in agreement, yes, now go and continue to negotiate with government departments, first, you don't dare to spill with them, second, they are proficient in all kinds of professional negotiation team, as long as it is unacceptable, do not give you a whole set of cordial meetings and exchanges for up to 30 times, they are not a delegation of Chinese negotiators.
"Well, let's put those technical issues aside for the time being, and on behalf of my government, I must ask you a very important question, you and your company have always been the most important international friends of our country. We have a very wide range of businesses and interests, but in the past year we have also noticed that you and your business have been supporting Wall Street in shorting international oil prices, and we have to express our grave dissatisfaction, which is completely unacceptable, you can't earn oil from the people of Iran and serve Wall Street at the same time. Minister Nadazam finally brought up this most important dispute, and at the same time told Xu Teng the truth why the "Iranian people" hate him now, because he is a lackey of the United States, and a lackey of the Jewish bankers of Wall Street in the United States!
"First of all, there is a very important thing for your country to understand, the Huayin Consortium actually controls AIG Group, one of the five giants of Wall Street, and I am one of the Wall Street. Xu Teng also told Minister Nadazam a truth, very leisurely picked up the cup and tasted the cup of Jin Junmei black tea, and then continued to tell the other party another truth, "Secondly, this is a very pure corporate behavior, my minister, when the global oil supply exceeds consumer demand, it will inevitably lead to a fall in oil prices, and financial capital will inevitably pursue huge profits." The whole Wall Street is investing extensively in shale oil and gas assets, and the fall in oil prices means that we are all going to lose money, and if we refuse to lose money, then we have to make others pay, and in the international financial markets, this is the simplest risk hedging. ”
"Finally, I can also tell you that there is no such thing as a truly pure corporate act in this world. The United States needs international oil prices to plummet to hit old geopolitical rivals and at the same time let international capital flow back to the United States, and China also needs international oil prices to plummet to reduce domestic industrial operating costs, you must understand that long-term high oil prices have seriously damaged China's economy, and we must do something to safeguard our own economic interests. There are no absolute enemies and friends in this world, everything is constantly changing, at least in the matter of bringing down international oil prices, China and the United States are partners. Xu Teng told the last truth, and pulled out the banner of China and the United States to suppress the shock, lest Minister Nadazam be angry and kill him with a desperate shot.
In this matter, China and the United States are indeed working together, but the response at the government level is slower, and the response of the Huayin consortium and Wall Street is faster.
For the United States, this matter still needs to weigh the pros and cons, and China does not even have to weigh the pros and cons, it must be all benefits.
Under Xu Teng's strong proposal, all coastal provinces have begun to build national oil storage bases at the fastest speed, 14 in one go, plus the five bases laid out in advance by the Huayin consortium, by 2015, when all are completed, it is expected to take the opportunity to import 150 million tons of oil.
At that time, there will be no need to rent a boat to store oil, and you can just pull it home as much as you want.
Buy, buy, buy, buy wantonly, don't buy sorry for the United States!
