Chapter 731: The True Purpose of Increasing Production and Reducing Prices
readx;
Prince Sultan and King Fahd smiled bitterly, the two of them are high-level Saudi Arabians, the head of a country, and it seems that she is not as busy as the manager of the company?
Just as the strong woman was about to deal with things again, a secretary walked in and said to King Fahd: "There is news from the Iraqi side that President Qusay is coming to Riyadh to discuss important matters with the king. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧"
Sarah had just answered the phone, but when she heard the secretary's small words, which had reached her ears, there was a sudden inexplicable excitement in her heart, and the king hurriedly called himself back, and as soon as he arrived, the guy from Kusai came, which was too much of a coincidence, right? Could it be that he is here to propose? This dead guy finally got her senses, she suddenly had a huge sense of happiness, and after waiting for several years, she finally waited for this time.
"Hey, hey..."The voice on the phone was still ringing, Sarah had hung up the phone, and then, turned off the phone completely, these days, just as if she was not the general manager.
"Uncle, I just got off the plane, I'm tired from the journey, I have to go back to rest, I'm ready, I'll see you again." After Sarah finished speaking, she smiled picturesquely, and hurried away without waiting for her to agree.
This time, she was going to get off the plane, listen to what was going on, and then deal with it, and then take the plane again, so she didn't dress up either, and now, when she heard that Qusay was coming, she couldn't see him like this, right? It's time to go back and dress up, at least you can't let yourself have dark circles, right?
"It seems that Faisal has already guessed it, the two of us, this time we have done a good thing. ≦≧," said King Fahd. This niece of his own. That's smart...... His Majesty the King. "Qusay, led by Prince Sultan, who had gone to the airport to meet him, went to the royal palace in Riyadh. He said to King Fahd, who was waiting for him.
"President Qusay, what is it necessary for you to come to Riyadh in person? We just need to talk through the secret line. King Fahd said with a smile. I almost asked if I came to the Saudi royal family to propose.
"This time the stakes are very high, although we have a confidential line, I still don't feel at ease, I have to come to discuss it in person." Qusay said.
Matters? What's the matter? Looking at Cusai with a solemn face, the two of them really couldn't figure out what Cusai wanted to mention. ≦≧
"It's about our oil exports." "Every time we use oil weapons," Qusay said. We are all late-strikers, and now, we are going to be first-strikers and use our oil. to achieve our new purpose. ”
Every time oil production is cut, the Arab world is forced, mainly because of the Israeli problem, now, to preemptively strike, is it to continue to use the means of oil production reduction? King Fahd and Prince Sultan both knew that Qusay must have his purpose in saying this, but. They can't guess what the specific purpose is, and now that the US ambassador has just left, the meaning of his words is that they must increase production, and now they want to reduce production, although Saudi Arabia has always gritted its teeth and insisted on it for the sake of Arab friends. But in the current situation, they still feel a lot of pressure.
"You're saying we continue to cut oil production?" King Fahd asked tentatively.
"No, we're going to increase oil production." "In the past few months, we have been very successful in raising our oil weapons, dealing a heavy blow to the Western forces that support Israel, forcing them to remain neutral in our attacks, and thwarting the U.S. plot to freeze our own production to keep us bowed," Qusay said. ≦≧However, the production cuts and embargoes that have taken place for several months have affected our downgrade, and our fiscal revenues have decreased, so we should continue to increase oil production. ”
"However, our increased production will saturate the market and the price of crude oil will fall." Prince Sultan said.
"Yes, we just want to let the price of crude oil fall, now the international oil price is inflated, causing the economic downturn of countless Western countries, as the main source of energy, we need to make the healthy and stable development of energy supply, this is our contribution to the world." Qusay said.
As if all of a sudden, Qusay had become a hero protecting the global economy, and any unemployed person in a developed country would probably be moved to tears when he heard it. But King Fahd and Prince Sultan are both political veterans, and Qusay's words have almost zero credibility. In particular, what Qusay just said about using oil to achieve their new purpose, and this new purpose is definitely not for the sake of contributing to the countries of the world.

However, Qusay actually continued unashamedly: "In particular, in the last moment, the United States did not side with Israel, but remained neutral, we cannot watch the American economy suffer from high oil prices, we want to help the United States through this difficult time..."
"President Qusay, this is not a press conference, you can say anything directly!" Prince Sultan had to interrupt Qusay's words. ≦≧
"King, Prince, do you remember our Sky Flash project?" Qusay asked.
Of course, I remember this, and there is also Faisal's credit, and besides, Saudi Arabia and Iraq have invested 500 dollars each in advance.
However, the hateful British, after the United States announced sanctions against Iraq, Britain implemented it most resolutely and stopped the project with Iraq, as a result, the Saudis were also implicated, and the British took the Saudis a little. ≦≧
"Now, the British are frantically extracting crude oil from the North Sea fields, constantly increasing their production, frantically occupying the market that would otherwise be our oil exports, and we have suffered a lot of losses, especially when we have reduced oil production, the oil prices are very high, and the British have made a lot of money. It turns out that the British are the most shameless, and we need to hit the British oil industry hard and let them know that we OPEC are the main force that dominates international crude oil. Qusay said.
Hitting the oil industry in the UK? Prince Fahd looked at the young man in front of him and knew that he had an idea, it turned out that the increase in crude oil production was to combat the British Yankees?
"Our oil fields are all shallow buried high-yield self-injected crude oil, and the exploitation cost is low, while the British North Sea oil fields have a harsh geographical environment and high exploitation costs, so they absolutely can't compete with us, and the British want to fight our idea and challenge our OPEC status, which is absolutely impossible, we want to crush the British and let the Iron Lady know that we are not easy to bully." Qusay said. "When the British oil industry collapses, we can buy their shares at a low price."
On the surface, Qusay seems to have made a lot of sense, the UK's expansion of production capacity will lead to a reduction in OPEC's share, so this kind of economic competition is very necessary, and the British have done too much to Saudi Arabia and Iraq, and they need to let the British know the cost of offending them.
Moreover, increasing crude oil production will lower international oil prices, and the United States is very happy to see this situation, and the more it falls, the happier the United States will be, and the United States is now critical to rescuing its own economy, and it will not care about the life or death of the British oil industry at all. Currying favor with the United States and punishing Britain, killing two birds with one stone.
But is Cusay's reason really that simple?
Of course not!
In Qusay's strategy, with the rise of the Middle East economy and the gradual strengthening of Iraq's military, industry, and economy, the Middle East will eventually drift away from the United States, and when the Israeli issue occurs again, it will inevitably have a direct conflict with the United States.
Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are pro-American, but, at a critical time, they were still abandoned by the United States, and the United States sided with Israel and helped Israel tide over the difficulties, for example, to put pressure on Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, for example, the fighter planes in the Israeli Air Force were urgently provided by the United States, and the pilots in those fighters, after later investigation, many of them were not Israeli pilots, but American pilots, although they were American Jews.
When Iraq grows stronger, if Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are to make a new choice, they will definitely gradually abandon their pro-American policies and turn to pro-Iraq, in fact, there is already such a trend. The United States, on the other hand, will never be happy to see this happen.
Now, the United States is powerful, it seems to be invincible, so if you want to hit the United States, then come from the side, for example, you can first hit Britain and Japan, which are following behind the ass of the United States. Especially now, this opportunity is very good, the positions of the United States and the United Kingdom on the price of crude oil are completely opposite, and it is easy for these two countries to have contradictions, and if Qusay does not make a big deal about it, then I am sorry for this opportunity.
Through this incident, it would be best to weaken the ties between the United States and Britain, to create contradictions between them, and at the same time to deal a complete blow to the British oil industry, and to deal a little blow to the British economy.
As for the United States, Qusay has also figured out that after letting the United States relax its vigilance this year, there will be a big opportunity next year to hit the American economy.
After listening to Qusay's words, King Fahd and Prince Sultan both fell into deep thought, what Qusay said is very reasonable, and in this way, they will deal with it smoothly on the American side, but, faintly, they feel that Qusay said this, there must be other considerations, Saudi Arabia's position is pro-American, but Iraq is definitely not, so vigorously helping the United States, is not in line with Qusay's style, but Qusay must be taking into account Saudi Arabia's position, so he did not express this implicit meaning.
"Okay, then we can propose at OPEC to increase crude oil production." King Fahd concluded: "It is absolutely impossible for the British to squeeze out our oil exports. ”
After saying these things, Prince Sultan took Qusay's hand affectionately and said: "President Qusay, you have come to Saudi Arabia this time, and we can discuss another matter that has a lot to do with you. ”
