Chapter 152 High-level Meeting

(Thank you for the shrimp pond, the tip of the two new friends of the beauty appreciator, thank you for the monthly pass and subscription.) )

It's a very ordinary office, with no luxurious decorations and no comfortable chairs, but because of the location, it gives this office an unusual sense of heaviness.

For the leaders, this is an ordinary meeting and coordination meeting. In response to Chen Mo's report, after the argumentation of many experts, the importance of Chen Mo's information was confirmed, so there was this coordination meeting.

There were five representatives at the meeting, three important oil companies, as well as the intelligence department and the leading State Council. Looking at the leader sitting at the top of the conference table, Chen Mo didn't have too many surprises in his heart. Because during New Year's Day, Chen Mo even came to his heavily guarded house on Nanchang Street as a guest. However, at this time, it is obviously not the time to pull the relationship, and he can only get the attention of the other party by playing a greater role in his work.

After the moderator of the meeting read out the theme of the meeting and introduced the delegates, the leaders spoke first. He first reviewed the country's past experience and gains, looked forward to the future, and then went straight to the topic.

"Nowadays, the development of our country is facing a complex international situation and a changing economic form, and today, when our country's economy has entered a period of rapid development, we cannot only take care of the immediate interests and ignore the investment in the future. The development of industry is the basic national policy formulated by us since the Third Plenary Session of the 13th Central Committee, and we should stick to our beliefs, abandon all distractions, and raise our economic indicators to make the people's lives richer. As the bloodline of industrial development, oil is a link that cannot be ignored in the industrial process of all walks of life. From 93 to the present. We have changed from a crude oil exporter to a crude oil importer, and the share of imports is getting bigger and bigger, in the past 99 years, the import volume has exceeded 36 million tons, but what is our share of oil abroad? There are less than six million tons! Exactly one-sixth of what we import. But I asked us about the volume of imports we are going to be importing next year, at the rate we are doing now. This year's imports are expected to exceed 70 million tons, but most of the crude oil needs to be bought from others, and the share of oil in our own hands will further decline. ”

"I don't want to put more pressure on all of you here, but how to further optimize the industrial structure and expand the influence of the industry is what history and the people expect from you. All of us here are burdened with the heavy responsibility of the development of the entire industry, which is not only our professional responsibility, but also our obligation as a son and daughter of China. Today. We all need to abandon the view of the door, be open and honest, and talk about all the problems, I am sitting here today, I will solve the difficulties for you if there are external difficulties, and I must support you to support you, and we can no longer let the supply of oil become a bottleneck for our economic development, and provide a steady stream of impetus for our economic development. ”

All of them applauded. But he waved his hand and said, "Don't come to these vains. I want action. Minister Zhang, come first and report to you the research report of you and the Policy Research Office, so that everyone can have a number in their hearts. ”

This Minister Zhang is Chen Mo's big boss in the Ministry of Intelligence, and he once met him in Mr. Zheng's office. At the beginning, Chen Mo also made a condition to him and wanted a privileged license plate. He also agreed to Chen Mo. But after Chen Mo went to report, he realized that he was a little too arrogant. Don't say that he is just an intelligence collector now, even if he now has the level of his godfather Kang Xuedong, in front of him. Still just a small role.

Minister Zhang took out a stack of materials from the bag next to him, and a middle-aged man in his thirties sitting on the wall behind him immediately took the stack and handed out a copy to everyone present.

Chen Mo roughly browsed it, the content of this is very different from the information given by Chen Mo at the beginning, and the information given by Chen Mo at the beginning has been extensively and in-depth researched in the future, if you don't look carefully, you can't see Chen Mo's shadow at all. However, the reason for all this is because of the information Chen Mo gave at the beginning, so Chen Mo is still quite proud in his heart.

Among the nearly twenty people attending the meeting, Chen Mo was the lowest-ranking one, not to mention him, even Kang Xuedong was almost the lowest-ranking in this area, if it weren't for Chen Mo being his subordinate at the beginning, I'm afraid he wouldn't be qualified to participate in today's meeting.

After everyone got the information, Minister Zhang said: "Since the beginning of the last century, when oil has been applied to the industrial development process, only one part is economic, and nine points are politics. Governments at all levels have used oil as their most powerful weapon to cope with the ever-changing international situation. So, to a certain extent, this increases the actions of our enterprises in the international market, which is an objective reason. At present, the share of oil in the Middle East has almost been carved up, and the high-quality light oil in North Africa and Southeast Asia is firmly held by Western companies, while in other parts of Africa and South America, the political instability and backward supporting facilities have added many difficulties to our market development. I checked the information, and among all the foreign investments of your three oil companies from 93 to the present, only the Tarala oilfield project in Peru has completely recovered its investment and achieved complete profitability. Although this development model is constrained by scale, it is an effective supplement to our crude oil supply. ”

"According to our global survey, a series of studies on investments around the world have been conducted, and among the major oil producing countries, Venezuela, Canada, Thailand, Papua New Guinea, Sudan and Kazakhstan can be our next phase of public relations focus, in addition, in Angola, West Africa, although the civil war has not subsided, but both warring parties have focused on the development of crude oil, giving security guarantees to foreign investors, and the quality of crude oil here is high. It is also an important area to invest in. We have made a detailed summary of the further details, and several of you can ask us for a detailed understanding if you are interested. ”

Everyone nodded, and Mr. Zou of PetroChina asked: "I have not found an analysis of Russia here, as our neighbor, the seventh largest oil producer in the world, is this intentional or negligent?" ”

"I would like Comrade Chen Mo of CNPC to explain this point to you. Although he is only a young man, he has unusual views on the current situation in Russia, and some of his views on the current situation in Russia have also deeply touched us old guys. The suspension of negotiations with the Russian company Yukos on the oil pipeline is the opinion we gave after reading his analysis. I know that this is a huge loss for Petronas, after all, you have been researching and investing in this project for six years. However, sharpening the knife does not mistake the woodcutter, and only a more comprehensive understanding of the situation in Russia can have a more positive effect on our future plans. ”

Mr. Zou glanced at Chen Mo disappreciatively, but didn't say anything. He also knew Chen Mo's identity, speaking of which, Chen Yizhou was also his teacher, so he also wanted to hear Chen Mo's opinion on this matter. However, he would rather believe that this is Chen Yizhou's guidance behind his back, and he does not dare to agree that Chen Mo, a young man, is qualified to sit next to the conference table.

Chen Mo looked at Minister Zhang, he didn't expect him to let him speak at today's meeting, and he was not prepared at all, so he was stunned for a while. Seeing that Minister Zhang nodded, and the leader's eyes were also staring, he hurriedly prepared his words and prepared to speak.

However, in the face of everyone's gaze, he still became nervous, and his brain was blank. "Hello everyone, leaders."

As soon as he spoke, he realized that his voice seemed to have cracked, and everyone laughed tolerantly. Kang Xuedong opened a bottle of mineral water in front of him and said in a low voice: "Drink saliva, don't be nervous." ”

Chen Mo couldn't care about everyone's eyes, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, took a deep breath, and then said: "The kid had two long talks with Berezovsky in Russia due to coincidence, and when I contacted him, I heard some exchanges between him and other powerful figures in Russia, so I have some understanding of the current situation in Russia from another angle, and some shallow words, I hope you don't laugh at it." ”

After this period of adjustment, Chen Mo felt that his heartbeat had finally calmed down, and the words he said were no longer dry. "From the breakup of the USSR in 91 and the failure of the shock therapy they employed in economic development, Russian politics entered the chaotic Warring States era. In this process, in terms of economic development, the black-box operation of public to private has created the current oligarchic era. Yeltsin's quick success, as well as his use of oligarchs to control the situation in the country, over the past few years, have not brought Russia better development. But after all, he has stabilized the overall economic situation in the country, and has brought Russia a strong leader who can change the future. For us, Putin is just a lucky man, a politician with bad luck, but for Russia, the emergence of such a leader as him is only an inevitable result. ”

"Because of his lack of qualifications, he must rely on a strong hand to stabilize the situation, as can be seen in his strong crackdown on the Chechen rebels when he first sat on the prime minister's throne last year. Maybe being strong is not his character, but this is his indispensable label, and only by giving the lower classes a strong confidence can he sit firmly in his position. And such a label is destined to be used by him for the rest of his life, so we need to formulate the next business plan for Russia according to his character. (To be continued.) )
