Chapter 014, You're Fired

An hour later, Canglong read all the information and called Yan Yan over: "Inform all the heads of the branch that I want to have a meeting, I don't care where they are, give them half an hour to rush over, if they can't get here, they will be dismissed on the spot." ”

"Half an hour?" Yan Yan looked surprised, "I'm afraid I won't be able to catch it in half an hour, some people are still on the oil field, and it is more than ten kilometers away from here, so it is impossible to rush over." ”

"I need you to carry out orders, not to question orders." Canglong said and looked at his watch, "The timer begins!" ”

Grim's face was very ugly, and he hurriedly ran down, and Vivian on the side asked strangely, "What the hell do you want to do?" ”

Canglong didn't answer, just took the information, handed it to her and said: "This is the situation in the Rumaila oil field, in fact, the largest oil field is not in our hands. ”

Vivian took the information and looked at it, and after a few minutes, she also frowned: "The largest oil field in the Rumaila oil area is still in the hands of the Russian Luke Company, and we have to negotiate with the Russians when we go in now, but what is this deputy director going to talk about with the British?" ”

"That's the crux of the matter." Canglong had a calm face, "Longteng International relied on Russia to enter the Middle East market, Luke Company is the main partner, the new Iraqi government bidding for oil and gas fields is itself a trap, and the contract signed by the Saddam government of Luke Company has not expired." ”

"Two birds with one stone?" Vivien wondered, "No, we can negotiate a joint development with Luke." ”

"No way!" Canglong shook his head, "This is a historical issue, the Russians signed a contract with Saddam, and the bidding agreement of the new government is a piece of waste paper in their eyes, how can they let it go easily?" The important thing is that now Longteng International is pulling the British to develop together, completely leaving the Russians aside, what will the Russians think? ”

"He will think that we have turned our backs on them and started working with the Americans to rob them of their interests in Iraq." Vivien analyzed.

"Yes." Canglong nodded, "The British company is willing to cooperate with Longteng International, for fear of being instructed by the Americans, and the United Kingdom has always been together with the United States, so the Russians mistakenly think that we are actually seeking help from the United States, but in fact, we are begging for food in the cracks, and we have also abandoned Russia, the most reliable partner." ”

Vivien frowned, if this is the case, Longteng International will not please both sides, the Americans are obviously preparing to let China and Russia fight for the Rumaila oil field, so that this originally very strong cooperative relationship will be broken and become enemies, and finally they will enjoy the benefits of fishermen.

"Didn't Mr. Lin have a countermeasure before?" Vivian suddenly asked, Lin Wanrou would not have discovered such a trap, but after Longteng International entered Iraq, it looked too strange to walk into the trap laid by the Americans in the middle of winter.

"Mother should have expected it, but it was too late, because she was already lying in the hospital bed at that time, and she didn't have time to explain." Canglong shook his head, "And our Director Ye is still following the original plan, so much so that now it has reached the point of no return." ”

Saying that, Canglong handed Vivian another document, which recorded the incident record of the conflict on the Rumaila oilfield, many Chinese oilmen had conflicts with the Russians because of business problems, although the final peace talks were not over, but such a conflict became more and more intense as the drilling team of Longteng International drove into the Rumaila oilfield to establish a base.

There is also a document that shows that the deputy director, named Wang Daoming, has a record of many unsuccessful negotiations with the Russian side, which may be the reason why he went to the local government and the British.

Vivian looked at the documents, her face became solemn: "This is the mess, there is no way to find a way to live!" ”

Canglong frowned and touched his chin: "It's still the same sentence, if we play according to the rules of the Americans, we can only follow their routines, how can we win in the rules set by others?" So, let's make our own rules of the game! ”

"You mean to postpone the development of the Rumaila field to avoid a further conflict with Luke?" Vivien asked.

"That's half right, you'll know the other half later." Canglong said, picking up the walkie-talkie on the table, "Snow Leopard, are they all here?" ”

"Most of them have arrived." "A few of them are still on the way." ”

Putting down the walkie-talkie, Canglong and Vivian went downstairs to the conference room, and saw the deputy director at first sight, his face was full of anxiety and dissatisfaction, and when he saw Canglong coming down, he forced a smile and said: "Mr. Cang, you are here, why don't you say a word to me, I will pick you up." ”

He didn't expect Canglong to ignore him in front of all the employees, although he felt a little embarrassed, but Wang Daoming, deputy director Wang, endured it, a person who could not even give face to the ambassador, and left the ambassadors of various countries and Iraqi dignitaries aside and didn't know where to go, how could he give him face?

Canglong looked at Yan Yan with a serious face and asked, "How many people haven't arrived?" ”

Yan Yan had a bitter face: "They are all important engineers in the oil field, and they are blocked in the urban area." ”

"Is that really the case?" Canglong suddenly looked at him with a smile, making him furious, he secretly glanced at Deputy Director Wang, and didn't know how to answer, because just now he heard Deputy Director Wang call the person in charge of the oil field, so that they don't have to come over.

Without waiting for him to answer, Canglong looked at his watch and announced slowly: "Let the logistics department buy them plane tickets, inform them that they have been fired, and now have a meeting!" ”

The conference room suddenly had a burst of discussions, they all looked at Deputy Director Wang, and what lived up to expectations was that Deputy Director Wang spoke, and he reminded with a serious face: "President Cang, we are short of manpower now, and the people you want to fire are all oilfield engineers, all in key positions, if you fire them, I'm afraid."

Wang Daoming's tone was a bit threatening, as if to say, if you fire them all, there will be no one to help us extract oil.

Canglong looked at him coldly: "You are one of the two deputy directors who came to pick me up with Ye Lun at the airport, right?" ”

"It's an honor that President Cang can still remember me." Wang Daoming's tone was sarcastic.

"yes, how could I not remember you?" Canglong sneered, "I don't need you to question my orders, I just need you to carry out my orders, understand?" Execute! ”

Speaking of this, Wang Daoming also understood what Canglong meant, but he was not afraid of Canglong, but sneered: "Since President Cang wants to go his own way, then with all due respect, this is Iraq, not Beijing, you can't be allowed to do anything here, even if you are the president and want to fire people, you must pass the permission of Director Ye and our two deputy directors, you can't make claims!" ”

"Do you mean that Longteng International is a director system rather than a president system?" Canglong's tone was cold, and there was a bit of chill in his words.

"Of course not, we respect Mr. Lin, she is your mother, we also respect you, if she wants to fire anyone, we don't have a word, but you are different, you don't understand the situation at all, without our help, you don't have the ability to take charge of Longteng International!" Wang Daoming threatened.

"Let me tell you, since I am the president, I have full authority to represent my mother and the State Council, Longteng International has more than them, less than them, and you are the same." Canglong showed a smile, "Now that you have been fired, I will buy a plane ticket and send you and your people back to Beijing, and I will also inform the embassy that your work visa has expired." ”

The conference room was in an uproar, Wang Daoming blushed and looked at Canglong, if he still had any scruples just now, then now Wang Daoming has no scruples at all, he stood up and said: "When you beg me, you mess up the Iraqi strategy, and you will be fully responsible!" ”

After speaking, he left the conference room angrily, but Canglong didn't care, and said to Snow Leopard: "Send someone to send our former Deputy Director Wang out, now he is no longer a person from Longteng International, for the sake of safety, he doesn't need to sort out anything, and the company will express it to him if it belongs to him." ”

Wang Daoming paused at the door, and he could clearly see that he was trembling with anger by Canglong's words, but he didn't say anything.

The conference room returned to calm, and Canglong continued: "If anyone is ready to question my orders or think that they are indispensable, they can stand up immediately and follow Deputy Director Wang out of here, I will also reimburse you for the air ticket, and pay you your salary on time, so that you can leave here with peace of mind!" ”

Without speaking, they looked at each other, a few people stood up and left, but most of them stayed, so this branch, which was originally only a dozen people, suddenly only had ten civilian personnel left, of course, not counting the people brought by their security department and Canglong.

"Is no one ready to leave?" Canglong glanced at the people in the conference room.

Everyone didn't speak, but nodded, Canglong changed his indifference just now, and said with a smile: "Now I announce that Miss Vivian has become the deputy director of Longteng International's Iraq branch, do you have any objections?" ”

The people in the conference room were speechless, how dare they question Canglong's orders? So I could only nod and pluck the drum one by one.

"Grim, you stay, the others disperse!" Canglong said calmly.

When everyone reacted, they realized that Canglong's meeting was not a regular meeting at all, mainly for Deputy Director Wang, and for a while they all felt that the decision to stay just now was very wise, after all, they couldn't find such a well-paid job in China, although it was said that this was Iraq, but they were all civilian, and they didn't need to go to the oil fields with the most conflicts.

After everyone left, only Vivian and Yan were left in the conference room, Canglong stood up and walked to the door, saying as he walked, "Take me to the oil field!" ”

Seeing him like this, Canglong asked, "Do you have any objections to my decision just now?" Say, I'm not going to fire you. ”

This sentence seemed to give a severe pardon, but he still thought for a long time before saying: "Deputy Director Wang is the main customer liaison officer in charge of Longteng International in southern Iraq, and he specializes in dealing with the British, and the British will definitely be dissatisfied if they dismiss him, and you have dismissed the person in charge of the oil field and the chief engineer, how can we still exploit oil?" ”

But Canglong asked rhetorically: "Then do you think that if I don't fire them, we will be able to extract oil?" ”

Yan Yan obviously didn't think about this problem, but he soon found out that they are now in a predicament, so it doesn't matter whether these people are here or not, he has been in Iraq for no less than two years, and he has some understanding of the changes in the situation here, in fact, everyone knows that as long as the Americans don't let go, China will not want to extract even a barrel of oil here.

"So, keeping them is just a resource for Lang, so it's better to fire them." Canglong smiled.

"But they know Iraq better than you do, absolutely," he reminded me.

But before he could finish speaking, Canglong smiled, and he looked at Vivien and the members of Team B, who here didn't know more about Iraq than Wang Daoming? I'm afraid that Wang Daoming knows more about Iraqi officialdom, and Canglong just doesn't like to deal with these people, because there is no need
