Chapter 242 Energy Issues 1

It is no exaggeration to say that the fairy failed very much this time, the energy industry is sluggish, although it is beneficial for them to shoot, but it also makes them pay a huge risk price, and they have to take over almost the same amount of arrears and debts, although some debts and arrears have been screened, but these amounts are too huge, the two add up to more than the total assets, and the debt ratio is more than 50%, which has never been seen in the history of the fairy! Although the acquisition of the company, the companies have intercepted some book funds, and all the working capital has reached more than 65 billion, but the debts that are about to expire are as much as more than 140 billion, forcing the headquarters to inject 150 billion yuan at one time, which slightly eased the company's tight financial pressure. The headquarters has no choice, although the amount of bank loans is amazing, but the energy company has no money on the books, and the debt has to be repaid, so it can't just be bought back and let people take out loans, not to mention that the loan not only has a high interest rate, but also has a bad impact. As of the end of the year, there are 140 billion yuan of debt due, and 200 billion arrears are due, although the arrears are slightly later, but this should be able to maintain a balance; The result is that fortunately I made a lot of preparations, so I was not caught off guard, and the money owed to others was really given, but the money owed by people was only 60%, and more than 80 billion could not be recovered, saying that it was a postponement of return, and I had to press back the 80 billion arrears for 3 years, and the collateral was okay, but "the capital turnover was not effective"!

And 41 years is a peak year of debts and arrears, this year, not only to repay 300 billion debts, but also to recover the same amount of arrears, "no suspense", arrears can not be fully recovered, only two-thirds of the recovery, although the deferred repayment period has been shortened for half a year, but the company's situation has not shown the slightest sign of improvement. For the remaining debts and arrears, the responsible people are also worried, the whole company is not eating, drinking, not earning, not losing, at best only 95 billion yuan of liquidity, with this little money, it seems impossible to maintain normally, especially the next peak period of debt repayment is coming soon. In the past two years, the only thing the whole company is concerned about is how to repay the debts, by the end of 42 years, these debts will all be due, and this has been signed (signed by the original company) deferred repayment agreement to the present, 210 billion yuan is definitely not a small amount, although it is said that "fairies have money", although they still have about the same arrears will also be due. The headquarters is not very relieved, and has allocated another 140 billion yuan, for which the energy companies are very satisfied, because they all know how useful these funds will be. On the other hand, the international energy market is still sluggish, the company's financial situation has not improved, in addition to the headquarters allocated 290 billion yuan, the head office only has 50 billion book funds, which is not at all "generous" for this huge company, therefore, after entering 43 years, the headquarters of "insight into the autumn" has allocated more than 130 billion yuan, plus the arrears that have been recovered, the book funds of the entire company have reached more than 260 billion yuan, gathered together, it can be regarded as a large company, Although the head office basically did not exceed 1500. Of course, this is only a temporary phenomenon, with the successive recovery of arrears, the scale of funds gradually increased, and by 44 years, it was as high as more than 400 billion.

The real problem of energy companies is not money, but in the market, the company has insisted on not taking out loans, and has repeatedly obtained "guarantee funds" from the headquarters, which seems to make the company's social image not bad. In fact, any critic admits that there will be no financial problems with fairy energy, not to mention hundreds of billions of yuan in debt, that is, trillions of yuan, "not in the eyes of fairies", but there is not necessarily a market if there is money! Although the international energy market is not very sluggish, it is not that there is no development, the economic crisis has passed, the global development opportunity is in front of us, the market has launched a lot of new projects, provoked many companies to compete for this, which is naturally indispensable to the shadow of fairy energy.

The energy industry needs a lot of money to pave the way, although there is not much money on the books, but it does not mean that she does not shoot, and she is also working very hard for every project, but in fact, several large projects of more than 500 billion yuan are all her share, all of them have been eaten by several large oligarchs and large companies, and this is the root cause of Zhou Ruquan's depression. Although it is said that some projects have been obtained, but these projects are not heavyweight, and companies like them with *, even if they cannot become "oligarchs" in the industry, should have some far-reaching large projects in order to be considered passing; But fairies are relatively isolated internationally, with too few partners, and a serious lack of social connections, especially the strong official influence of international oligarchs. Although the branches are widely spread across Asia, Africa and South America, none of these companies are strong enough to compete with other competitors. Another serious deficiency is talent, or the experience of talents, the basic talent of fairy energy is the original manpower of the company, so that the leadership of the company, lack of experience in the operation of large groups, although it has also hired many industry elites, senior energy practitioners, but from the real formation of combat effectiveness, "it will take a short time", although there is a capable headquarters support! At the same time, the company's market development needs to be strengthened, although it inherited most of the branch channels, but many of these channels have been lost in fact, or have not fully functioned, the African market is not good, the South American market is relatively bad, and only the Asian market has slightly recovered some of the decline...... In the face of the fierce competition of strong opponents in the industry, Fairy Energy (in fact, it should be a fairy) seems to be a little powerless, with insufficient connections, insufficient strength, and lack of partners...... This made people no longer obsessed with her, and "it was not enough", which largely embarrassed her success in the North American market. The powerful fairies finally hit a wall, and in the face of the facts, even they had to admit their weakness and the strength of their opponents; Perhaps, it seems that it can be thought that the fairy is just rich, just capital, and lacks enough influence over the world powers, she is still a little young......

However, it would be a mistake to take fairies lightly, and fairies always answer people's questions with facts! Doubts about the financial strength of the fairy, who took control of the European Messer electronics company in one fell swoop and eventually established her own electronic dynasty; People doubted the financial strength of the fairy, she acquired a new material company with great fanfare, formed a domestic industry giant, and unexpectedly successfully acquired Shenwei Company, becoming the most balanced and powerful new material company in China; People didn't believe in her magic, she single-handedly concocted the magic of India, and then broke into the energy industry...... The fairy who is good at "making trouble" will not be easily bullied, and she can enter the North American market legendarily, can't she fight for her own piece of cake in the energy field? In fact, although the experts were not satisfied with the performance of the fairy energy and complained about her delay in opening up the situation, no one doubted her survivability; And it is her opponents who are still worried about the fairy's energy, and they are more worried than anyone else about the immense energy that the fairy contains. For them, the energy company is just a tentacle of the fairy stretching in the energy industry, and their real opponent is the tentacle itself - an unprecedentedly powerful fairy, in their opinion, the future development of fairy energy does not depend on the world's energy community, just the fairy or Li's own social resources, has made her to an alarming point! In their opinion, the company itself is strong enough, how strong is she? In just five months, they have built a worldwide production and sales system, with 11 large subsidiaries in many countries and regions in Asia, Africa and South America, which happen to be the regions where their influence is relatively weak.

Inevitably, the energy company inherited the inherent characteristics of the fairy, and by the time it was 43 years old, the company had repaid all its debts, becoming a large company with a rare debt ratio of zero in the world. Although there are many debts, but the subsidiaries are all tiger-headed, fairies are like a respectable father, earning a huge family business, raising the children to become talents, after separating the family, and giving them a ride, the tired body is burdened with huge debts, and they bear it alone! As a result, there is a strange phenomenon in the industry, everyone is cautious about a company with a lot of debt, although she has trillions of yuan of bank debt, although she has long been wiped out by debt, everyone is always vigilant, because the company's subsidiaries are all rich and have no long-term debt! Indeed, at the end of 44 years, the fairy company has extremely amazing financial resources, according to statistics, the domestic industry, the Indian industry and the North American market of the three major parts, the total profit in 5 years reached more than 5.87 trillion yuan, although the headquarters of the financial pressure is very large, but the profits of the Indian companies (a total of more than 1.24 trillion yuan) are all retained, for the development of local industries, the three major markets left a total of more than 2.8 trillion yuan of profits, only to extract a "small amount of funds" For the debt repayment of the headquarters and the industrial relief of some companies, even in the domestic market, which has been relatively stable, the funds retained in the past few years have exceeded trillions of yuan!

Suffice it to say, the entire company system maintains a strong market competitiveness at all times, and the entire consortium is extremely wealthy enough to cope with any unexpected event, capable of defeating any possible provocation of an adversary. What is even more disturbing is her four-year hibernation, and this uneasiness has gradually infected the international energy giants.

As long as he is not criticized by the headquarters, Zhou Ruquan does not have to worry about anything, after getting along for a long time, he deeply admires some of the abilities of the headquarters, of course, he has not received criticism and dissatisfaction from the headquarters, although the "suspicion" of him in the news media can be seen everywhere!

In the past four years, he has continued to withdraw funds from the headquarters, from 40 to 43 years, a total of 420 billion yuan, although he has not handed over a penny of profits, and I heard that the headquarters is also very tight! He is well aware of the displeasure of the press, and it is "understandable" that the de facto most powerful energy group in the country has not received a "decent project" for many years. For example, the "Iceland" project in North America, they did not enter at all, and even failed to enter the third round of bidding, although it is said that the project has not yet been finalized, but the "cash cave" jointly divided by several major oligarchs is impossible to distribute to the fairy company; Moreover, the two energy tenders in the Arctic Ocean did not have their share, and they could not even survive the second round, although in fact they were "blackhanded" by some opponents. Of course, it can't be said that there is no gain, with a large domestic energy company, they seized the opportunity of energy development in Antarctica, although the project is still some time away from the final winning bid, the project of 400 billion yuan of huge investment, they can at least share 60%, will occupy the dominant position of the project, since then, the sky of Antarctica flying fairy flag is no longer a dream. In fact, they didn't expect to get those big projects either, although it was said that there were still a few big projects in Antarctica waiting for them to win the bid, and even without them, he didn't need to worry either, because they still had some potential projects that would be enough to drive any big company crazy!

After more than 30 years of continuous development at the beginning of the century, the world's high-quality oil reserves have been almost exhausted, some traditional energy sources have been unable to meet the needs of human beings, and new alternative energy and renewable energy have been discovered or developed or even invented one after another, becoming a new energy supply point! For example, oil no longer occupies a major position, especially in most countries and regions of onshore and offshore oil has been exploited almost, such as the Middle East, Central Asia and the North Sea and the Russian Far East and other important oil-producing areas have gradually left people's sight, some new energy with the development of science and technology, large-scale application has become possible, international energy giants and demand groups have set their goals on these projects, and launched a new round of competition. Today's world energy is divided into several large parts, one is the traditional energy of oil and coal, the second is natural energy, including solar energy, ocean energy, wind energy and hydropower, etc., and the third is the continental shelf storage energy that has been discovered and recently developed, which is called "combustible ice". The focus of international competition is first of all offshore oil, especially offshore oil, and the second is "combustible ice", compared with before, the international energy supply area is still no obvious change, Asia, Africa and South America are still important regions, but the Far East (including Southeast Asia) has been raised to a new height.

Before the economic crisis, the fairy's influence was mainly concentrated in the country, and even if it was not so strong in the country, but after the economic crisis, her influence in the world has been greatly strengthened, and in many places it is not weak or even stronger than any energy oligarch who has been operating for hundreds of years! To a large extent, she is a powerful consortium with incomparable influence, and the influence of its industry on the entire society has reached an immeasurable level, and the domestic influence of the family behind her has reached an immeasurable level in the same period; At the same time, her influence in India has reached unprecedented heights that no other international company can match, not even some of the largest companies in her own country, and her influence in these two Asian powers alone will make her energy company invincible! In addition, fairies also have a great influence in Europe, and the Spike family alone cannot be despised by the powerful, and due to the combined role of China and India, especially the former's victory in the Southeast Asian War and the actual status of the superpower, she has more say in the traditional sphere of influence of the two countries (Southeast Asia and Africa), especially in Southeast Asia, and has almost exclusive advantages. Therefore, the prospects of energy companies are absolutely limitless, destined to become a world-class oligarch, which could have been regarded as an insurmountable shortcoming, in fact, it no longer exists, she does not have to follow the old path of her peers in the world, and she can successfully develop without multi-party participation and collective efforts, and realize her exclusive profits.

For the lack of partners this shortcoming, it is not impossible to overcome, at least some of China's large energy companies are willing to cooperate with her, whether the government is promoting or really have mutual needs, the joint win of the Antarctica project is proof, and their cooperation will certainly not end here, in addition, she and Indian energy companies also have the possibility of cooperation, it is said that they have sought to jointly bid for other projects in Antarctica; If this is the case, then it is not impossible to unite the energy companies of the two countries to bid for other Antarctic projects at the same time. And if she can find partners in China and India, why can't she find partners in Africa or South America, what's wrong with mutual profits, and even finding partners in Europe is not unrealistic. For fairies, as long as the door to cooperation is opened, partners who are willing to cooperate can be found everywhere, who wants to get along with money? But in fact, she still ran into problems, and it was on the originally strong project!
