Therefore, in Cai Ruichen's view, this oil war is unlikely to end soon.
If the oil war persists and there is no guarantee that it will return to at least $60 a barrel, then the Iraqi government will have to reluctantly and slowly repay its dollar debt.
In the end, there is still no more money to pay for the rigid expenditures of the army.
And if there really is a loan from the Future Technology Group, the Iraqi government will get the oil benefits of the north, and the oil price war will end.
The benefits are really too great, not only do you not need to prepare a sum of money to maintain the basic security of the people's livelihood in the north, but you can also spare a sum of money to repay the accumulated debts.
As for the loan of the Future Technology Group, even anyone with a brain can figure out that it is impossible for the Iraqi government to repay it in at least ten years.
In other words, the Iraqi government has promised such benefits and is simply prepared not to repay them.
At that time, they don't need to turn their faces with the Future Technology Group, there is a way to drag it out, and at least they should pay off the debt of the United States, and this time, when the oil price is the highest, and all the oil in Iraq is in the hands of the Iraqi government.
The Iraqi government will need to repay the loan for at least 10 years, or even longer, because there are conditions that cannot be met in a short period of time.
on this. Cai Ruichen also saw it very thoroughly. Behind him. There is already a large team that is helping him with his analysis.
The Iraqi government is not able to hide from other people's eyes, and it is also clear how much debt it owes to others.
Because Iraq's finance minister is Aziz, all financial trends cannot be hidden from Cai Ruichen's eyes.
That is, there are so many reasons why the Iraqi government will give such conditions.
Sometimes. It is not so easy to fall into the pie in the sky, and it is impossible for future technology groups to compete with the United States for debts and demand that they must pay them back first.
The most important thing is that Cai Ruichen doesn't look down on that money, what he really values is the interests behind this matter.
Cai Ruichen doesn't care how much oil is expensive, and Future Technology Group does not rely on oil to obtain income.
If the price of oil is as cheap as 20 US dollars a barrel, he plans to start importing a large amount of oil, and at such a price, he will definitely not lose money.
Oil prices are controlled by the United States and Saudi Arabia. It is only a matter of time before oil prices pick up, and there is no need to worry about this at all.
Otherwise, the first one to be finished is the United States. There will be more than 10 million unemployed, and then the global financial crisis will break out again.
"Oil prices should come back up soon, and they won't last long." Obeidi doesn't know much about economics, but he still understands some simple truths.
But one thing is also clear, we must accomplish the purpose of today's visit.
"If you want me to agree, it's not impossible, the conditions are only one more, the oil fields in the north, I want half, and the previous conditions remain the same." Cai Ruichen said very calmly.
When Obeidi heard this, he exclaimed, almost instinctively, "This can't be ......"
"Then there's nothing to say." Cai Ruichen didn't give him a chance anymore, and walked out directly.
He believes that the Iraqi Government will still come to him, otherwise, those officials of the Iraqi Government will face the danger of stepping down.
In fact, Cai Ruichen knows very well that those people at the top of the Iraqi government are all corrupt to the bone, and such a political group, including those at the grassroots level, are all the same.
In war-torn and hopeless countries, corruption is a normal product, and no one can hide from it.
The Iraqi government has no money, and in his opinion, if all the officials of the current Iraqi government are arrested one by one and light the sky lanterns, let alone solve the current predicament, even if it raises an army of hundreds of thousands of people, there will be no problem in a short time.
But people are selfish, especially for a government system like Iraq, once a son of heaven and a courtier, they will not be in office for too long, and there will be someone to take over the throne later.
Now they take out the stubble of the people's fat and ointment to support the development of the government, and the result is that the people behind will benefit, and even recycle the money they take out now into their own pockets.
Therefore, people who have reached such a position all understand this truth, as if they themselves have not all the wealth they have from those people before them.
Feng Shui takes turns, and in the eyes of these government officials, one day is one day, and when they resign in the future, they can take their families to Europe or the United States to enjoy the rich life of the upper class.
And how can the money that goes into their pockets be taken out.
Including Al-Obeidi, as the Minister of Defense, he has received benefits over the years, in fact, he can feed the Iraqi government army for at least two years.
That's billions of dollars of wealth, and almost all of this wealth is military purchases and kickbacks for empty salaries, as well as the filial piety of the people below, and it is not uncommon to buy and sell officials.
Not to mention those lower-level officers, even if it is a lieutenant general, as long as you can afford it, you can buy it, and then the people who buy officials must be in order to make money.
This is also the reason why those officers of the Iraqi government army are all wine bags and rice bags, and there are not many of them who have real talents and real learning.
"Wait, I'll contact Mr. President right away, I'll have to ask him about this." Obeidi looked at Cai Ruichen who was leaving, and hurriedly shouted.
Cai Ruichen, who was walking towards the door, did not stop, and said as he walked: "Okay, give me an accurate answer, I will not modify the conditions I proposed." ”
After finishing speaking, Cai Ruichen left the reception room, leaving Obeidi alone in the reception room. As for whether the Iraqi government will agree, he thinks it is also inseparable.
Even if he didn't agree, he wouldn't regret that the price he offered was too high. He believes that there is absolutely another way for the Iraqi government not to agree to him.
As for the territories in the north, does the Iraqi government still think that the areas it has recovered will be handed over to them?
When the time comes, he will not even give an oil field to the Iraqi government.
Cai Ruichen is not a person who can spit it out if he eats it, not to mention that the Iraqi government has not yet made him spit out.
Sure enough, in less than an hour, Cai Ruichen received a reply from the Iraqi government and agreed to this condition.
However, Cai Ruichen must also ensure that he has always supported the normal operation of the Iraqi government when it is in financial difficulties.
In this regard, Cai Ruichen also agreed. (To be continued.) )
