Chapter 864 - Won't? Let's pretend we will
Listening to Guo Zhuocheng's continuous inquiry, Wen Baoheng had a trace of embarrassment on his face, but he still replied seriously: "Director Guo, I think the purpose of our exploration team going abroad is to make money from foreign countries. After receiving an invitation from the Kuwaiti royal family, we held an internal meeting, and it was agreed that we should be sent in, and it didn't matter if we delayed our own exploration here. ”
Guo Shucheng nodded happily and said, "Your idea is very right!" It has nothing to do with the late exploration of the oil fields here and the early exploration of the oil fields, anyway, the oil here is already our white spoon, and sooner or later it will be extracted. Moreover, our current transportation capacity and refining capacity are very limited, and even if we find a large number of oil fields immediately, we will not be able to exploit them for a while, but it will make people red. We should do our best to make a difference in Kuwait and make as much money as we can. ......, your idea is very good, but why do you look like you are talking and stopping? ”
Wen Baoheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Director Guo, we sent a team as soon as possible. However, we have not yet started our work, and we have inserted a lever into it. ”
Guo Zhuocheng sighed and asked, "Who?" ”
Wen Baoheng said: "A Danish company offered to contract the exploration of that area at a low price. I really don't know if we should say that we are lucky or bad, if they had found this royal family sooner, we wouldn't even have a chance to participate. If they had waited a few more years to find this royal member, and we had entered, they wouldn't have had a chance. It just so happened that we were negotiating with this royal family. ”
Guo Zhuocheng also smiled bitterly and said, "It's really a coincidence." Then, he asked puzzledly, "Since they quote low prices, then the low prices are low prices, and our white spoon entry costs and equipment costs are lower than theirs, can we still compete with them in price?" The average salary at home is at least 20 times more than our white spoon, and the cost of our white spoon is much lower. ......, by the way, how did the Danish exploration team target this small area? ”
Three hundred and sixty square kilometers is really not big, the circumference is less than 300 kilometers, and a car can run it in a few hours. It's just that the transportation here is inconvenient, rugged and remote, and it is difficult to work in the field. It may be nothing to hand over to China to enter the exploration, but it is a bit strange that Denmark, a company from a relatively developed Western country, would snatch this contract.
Wen Baoheng replied: "Because I want to make a high-end image of our company, I am not willing to fight with Denmark in terms of price, and we are not in a hurry because there is still exploration work in the Pokhaz region here that has not been completed, so I have not reduced the price aggressively." ......, as for why this company from Denmark is targeting here, it is said that it is because it is a new company that wants to squeeze into the Middle East exploration market, and wants to try this out, which is conducive to future business negotiations. Because it is to prepare for the future market, the price they quote is very low, basically close to the price we quoted. In this way, the price advantage of our white spoon does not exist, not to mention that at the same price, that is, the price of our white spoon is ten or even twenty percent lower than that of the family, and the family is still willing to hire companies from Western countries. ”
Unlike China's state-owned enterprises, which are regarded as golden signboards, there is a kind of unbridled resistance to China's state-owned enterprises abroad. Under all equal conditions, they are generally reluctant to choose.
Guo Zhuocheng couldn't imagine that Wen Baoheng's vision was so far, in the end it was the entry of the prime minister in his previous life, and in the current situation that China's prices, wages, and profits are far lower than those of foreign countries, he dared to argue with Denmark on an equal price for the sake of long-term interests.
He said: "You have a point, if we contract the exploration of this land completely on low prices this time, it will be difficult for us to raise the price in the future." Let's fight for it first, it's really not good, if the price is too low to affect our future business expansion, then we will give up, maybe Denmark into is not costly to squeeze in, we don't fight with them, we now have to slowly establish our white spoon corporate image, and slowly improve our white spoon enterprise taste. ”
Wen Baoheng saw that Guo Zhuocheng did not criticize him, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said: "However, we don't want to give up the exploration right of this land, and I also think that our country can still buy the oil production right of this land at that time." Director Guo, the reason why this Kuwaiti royal family member is exploring this land is not that he wants to extract oil to sell, but is eager to cash in and sell the oil production rights, just as we buy the oil production rights on this land in Iraq. ”
Hearing this, Guo Zhuocheng smiled, daring to feel that his "selfish" thinking had polluted Wen Baoheng's pure entry, and he also wanted to engage in a "colony" and want to take foreign resources into his arms.
Moreover, in Wen Baoheng's flickering eyes, Guo Zhuocheng also knew that he had a "ghost" in his heart: this land can only have a better operating space if China enters the exploration, although Denmark is responsible for exploring this land can also prove the underground crude oil reserves, but as the purchase of this land, it is difficult for China to play ghosts, and it cannot be concealed, at least it must be paid for the purchase according to the factors such as reserves and geological conditions, and once the Danish exploration team makes a mistake in exploration and exaggerates the underground oil reserves, China will have to suffer a loss.
On the contrary, if this land is brought in by China for exploration, not only can it be appropriately concealed to ensure that China does not suffer losses or even make some profits, but also can design the base built in the future during exploration, and even use the houses and facilities built during exploration for free in the future.
For Wen Baoheng, he is very entangled in his heart: the reluctance to compete at low prices will affect the image and taste of his company, because the impression of Chinese companies and Danish companies in the world is completely different, even if it is a small company, it will be considered a high-tech company in the world, and even if a Chinese company is large, it will still be considered as a low-tech company at present.
The lower the price drops, the more you think you are a grass platform team, and the more you don't worry about letting you do it alone. However, if the price is not reduced, it will be more difficult to undertake this treasure that has already been in his favor, and the most popular comparison of foreign countries is the high-tech equipment, secret instruments and expert education of both sides, and this is China's weakness. If it weren't for Guo Zhuocheng's fraud and allowing the Chinese exploration team to dig oil wells, the Kuwaiti royal family would not have come to China's "Tubalu" team at all, a team that is very rudimentary from the inside out.
At this time, even Guo himself felt that there was no good way to compete for the exploration business and mining rights of this land.
At this time, Wen Baoheng said: "Director Guo, the Kuwaiti royal family has put forward a proposal, that is, our company competes with Danish companies, whoever finds oil first, who explores oil wells first, and which company will do the exploration in the future." Moreover, he also brought in the land owned by another royal family member to participate in this exploration, covering an area of more than 800 square kilometers, which was expanded several times. ”
Guo Zhuocheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Then did you agree?" ”
Wen Baoheng hurriedly said: "We promised to agree, but we didn't have a bottom in our hearts. The main reason is that the opponent also put forward a very harsh condition, that is, it cannot send more players than the opponent and make it look like a real game. ”
Speaking of this, Wen Baoheng and several people around him showed a look of indignation: This condition is really too much, isn't it possible for our Chinese exploration team to win against the other party now? Don't let us send too many people in, Denmark is a mechanized army, carrying out three-dimensional operations on land, sea and air, and we can only rely on our own feet, even if we walk, we can't walk into the house. Isn't that a sure loser?
An expert next to him said angrily: "I know that this request must have been made by the Danish side." The reason used by the Kuwaiti side is that our white spoon workers have entered too much, which will make their country afraid. How can this be true, we are not an army, let alone robbers, what are they afraid of us? ”
Strictly speaking, Kuwait's concerns are not unreasonable, because the land area of the country is too small, only 70,000 square kilometers, which is about the same as the area of a prefecture-level city in the central and eastern provinces, and not as large as the area of a county in the western region, and the real Kuwaiti nationals are only 50,000, which is not much different from the number of imports from a county in China. If thousands or even tens of thousands of Chinese exploration workers pour in, it will really make the other party's heart tremble, for fear that there will be some trouble.
Guo Zhuocheng was not so frustrated, but smiled: "It doesn't matter, as long as we let us in, we will have a chance to win." Since we need to use high technology when entering the house, we also use high technology. This time, we are going to defeat the companies of Western countries with dignity. ”
Wen Baoheng hurriedly said: "We are now going to the international market to purchase high-end instruments and equipment, even if we buy it, we will not be able to learn it for a while, let alone use it in this exploration operation immediately." Not to mention the Jing secret equipment, it is a large desert truck, and we don't have so many drivers who can drive. ”
Guo Zhuocheng smiled confidently: "It's okay, if we don't have Jing secret equipment, we will buy a little, and if we don't use it, we will pretend to use it." However, it is necessary to step up the training of trucks or something, and there is also the need to bring in a batch of large trucks of our domestic liberation brand, whether they can be used. If it can't be used, let the FAW send it in to adapt the xing design, and if we give them an order, I don't believe that we can't make a truck that can drive in the desert, and in the future we will have to let them drive the truck to the extremely cold place. ”
Wen Baoheng and the others were dumbfounded, and an expert looked at Guo Zhuocheng in confusion and asked, "Pretend?" ......, pretending can only deceive Kuwait and Denmark, but it can't deceive ourselves, and it can't deceive the land under our feet. If they are not used, how can it be possible to help us find oil in the ground? ”
Guo Zhuocheng said: "As long as I can deceive them, I will solve the rest." ”
