Urgent need for support from subscriptions and monthly passes, brothers!

"What?"

Potanov felt a little overjoyed, and he wondered if he had heard it wrong, but he reacted immediately, and it seemed that it was only because he had been caught by this Friedman some time ago that he had lost some ground. I'm a little too nervous and overly worried.

It turned out that after Friedman passed on the information to him, Podanov sent someone to arrest Geriletu and failed, he had no idea how many chips the other party had, and he thought that he must be finished this time.

Because of the evidence in Friedman's hands, as long as this old boy is sent to President Putin, then he will definitely become the next Khodorkovsky, and going to prison is almost a certainty.

And Sugurt Oil & Gas Company will definitely end up in the same fate as Yukos, so in the past two days, this Potanov has been thinking about how he should talk to Friedman after meeting him.

He knew that this Friedman would definitely not let go of such an opportunity for the lion to open his mouth, and he would definitely ask himself to open the market in Central and Eastern Siberia and provide opportunities for major oil companies to enter this market freely.

Now after hearing Friedman say this, he realized that it seemed that he was taking it for granted, and after thinking about it again, it seemed that he was just thinking about the grievances between himself and Friedman, and he was a little blinded by the hatred between the two sides, and he was a little too taken for granted.

For a capitalist like Friedman, any hatred can be resolved, as long as the interests are sufficiently large, of course.

And for him, such a large area of Eastern Siberia represents sufficient interests, which no capitalist will easily give up.

Of course, such a big piece of fat is to share as few people as possible, so that everyone's interests can be maximized, it seems that this old boy has no intention of handing over his shoe incriminating evidence to the Kremlin!

Thinking about it again, he can fully understand why this Friedman did this, after all, President Putin has been in power for several years, and everyone knows this president's personality very well.

If Friedman had handed over his control, it would not only have been him, but the other oil companies would not have had a good time.

The reason is also very simple, the president will never let go of the Sugurt Oil and Gas Company, as well as a large virgin land in Central and Eastern Siberia, everyone knows what kind of resources are hidden under this land.

If the president gets his hands on these resources, then these resources may only be cheaper than Gazprom, or a state-owned oil company like Rossneft, and companies like BP-Tyumen controlled by Friedman, as well as companies like Yukos, at most they will get a little soup to drink, and don't even think about eating meat.

Such an outcome is probably the last thing any successful businessman or capitalist wants to face, so he will say what he just said to himself.

"Hehe, you heard it right, dear Potanov, we don't need you to open up control over the entire Central and Eastern Siberian oil, what we need is cooperation, of course, the premise is that you are cooperating with, but you have to choose carefully."

Friedman smiled and looked at the still startled Podanov and reiterated that in fact this plan was exactly what Aldridge next to him had proposed.

Originally, according to the grudge between him and Potanov, he wanted to directly hand over the evidence of Potanov's guilt to the Kremlin, and then watch the president use the butcher's knife to help him taste his long-cherished wish.

But then Aldridge stopped his impulsiveness and told him about the consequences of doing so, and after some ideological struggle, he also felt that Aldridge's words made a lot of sense. …,

There is a deep hatred between him and Potanov, but if Potanov were to be put to death, then it would probably only be the state-owned companies that would get the cheapest, and large private resource companies like them would be a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh in the eyes of the Kremlin.

And if the news of helping the Kremlin uproot Podanov spread, then he would not have a good reputation in the business world.

It is even likely to attract the siege of other private giants, because all he has done is to make the country more and more powerful, and in the end it may only be these private oil companies that are unlucky.

So after weighing it again and again, he still agreed with Aldridge's statement and opinion, and took the initiative to extend an olive branch like Potanov and planned to cooperate with him, and the rest depends on whether this Potanov is on the road or not.

And if Potanov, who has been in Shanghai for more than 20 years, still doesn't understand the kindness of Friedman and Aldridge, then he may be the number one fool in the world.

So he immediately changed his attitude towards the two, from the original superficial affinity, but the very hostile attitude in his bones, to a 180-degree turn, to a very friendly on the surface, and he also became very close in his bones.

The tone of the talks between the three parties also became friendly all of a sudden, and the tense atmosphere that had been tense disappeared all of a sudden.

Podanov appeared to be very superior, and in the subsequent negotiations, regarding the construction of the Tanner line, it can be said that there was no resistance to Friedman and Aldridge at all.

During the negotiations, the three parties reached an understanding on the issue of participating in the construction of the Tana Line, and Sugurt Oil and Gas Company allowed Yukos to participate in the construction of the Tana Line, and after the completion of the re-pipeline, they will definitely receive no less than 5% of the operating shares.

And they also subcontracted part of the construction of the Tana Line, which originally belonged to them to the Rogita Construction Company, and after the construction of the pipeline, they would also give BP-Tyumen certain privileges, they could enter the pipeline anytime and anywhere, and use the pipeline.

This made Aldridge and Friedman feel very satisfied, and in order to show his gratitude to Aldridge, Friedman will also subcontract part of their project to Rogietta Construction Company, so that Rogita Company, relying on Yukos's future submission contract, as well as Sugurt Oil and Gas Company, and BP-Tyumen subcontract, almost in the construction of this Tyner line, got a large project of nearly five or six billion dollars.

And the value of this project will account for 10% of the construction of the first phase of the entire Tanner line.

After that, the three parties negotiated cooperation in the exploration and exploitation of oil and gas in the Central and Eastern Siberian region.

In fact, Podanov knew in his own psychology for a long time that it would be impossible for him to rely on himself and the Sugurt Oil and Gas Company to defend such a large area as Central and Eastern Siberia, turn it into a prison for his own company, and do his duty for other companies to enter the exploration and exploitation.

Even if you can hold on to it now, it doesn't mean that you will always be able to hold it in the future, and those large companies in the west, or overseas resource industry giants, will definitely enter the Central and Eastern Siberian region for exploration and exploitation, and they will definitely not be able to stop it.

Rather than this, it is better to choose a few partners, and then form an alliance, and then use the alliance to snipe at those companies that have always coveted the resources here.

In fact, he has always had this idea, but he has been running it very well in the past few years, and other large oil companies have no intention of entering Central and Eastern Siberia, so he has never chosen a partner. …,

But now the situation is different, and the president has made a clever move to set the pipeline to the east at Tashet, and then allows other oil companies to come and participate in the construction, and he knows that he can no longer hold it.

Some time ago, he had been hesitating who to work with, but now he couldn't help it, bp-Tyumen and Yukos had already come to the door, and now looking at it, these two are very good partners to work with.

bp-Tyumen needless to say, even the president of this company's background is not easy to offend, and this Yukos is even more powerful, and he was unknowingly replaced by the current owner, and this owner is quite unusual, it seems that he also has a strong background, so it is not a very good choice to choose such two as partners.

After having a calculation in his heart, Podanov was no longer so resistant and disgusted by the entry of these two companies into Central Eastern Siberia, but also said that these two companies could go to Central East Siberia at will to carry out oil and gas exploration and exploitation work.

His Sugurt Oil and Gas Company will not only not give them a cover, but will also help them as much as possible, but the premise is also very simple, that is, in this pot, three pairs of chopsticks are enough, but there must not be more cats and dogs that you don't know.

Friedman and Aldridge, of course, readily agreed, and went along with Potanov's words that if necessary, they could form a joint company to fight the intrusion of other companies.

In this way, all three parties got what they wanted, and this meeting, of course, became a happy ending, although on the surface it seemed that Podanov had paid the most, but he knew in his heart that he did not suffer much this time, because while dealing with the president's offensive, he had two more allies.

If you can hold the Great Plain of Central and Eastern Siberia at the price you pay now, it will be very worthwhile.
