() In the next few days, Li Baoqiang and Hu Shengsong conducted in-depth discussions on exchanges and cooperation between the two sides in military, economic, cultural and other aspects.

Both parties believe that although the Huaxia Autonomous Region represented by Li Baoqiang and the Huaxia Saudi Autonomous Region represented by Hu Shengsong belong to the same Chinese origin, they occupy different geographical locations, possess different resources, and are in different cultural backgrounds. The two current autonomous regions belong to the same apocalyptic period. developing regions with extensive common interests.

Both parties view the relationship between the two regions from a strategic perspective and are committed to establishing and developing a comprehensive cooperative partnership of equality, mutual benefit, and common development. The characteristics of this relationship are: political equality, mutual respect for the development paths chosen by each other; Economic complementarity, active promotion of mutual investment and trade, benefiting the people of both sides; cultural exchanges and mutual learning; military exchanges and cooperation continue to strengthen.

After the two sides establish a strategic partnership, political mutual trust will continue to deepen, cooperation in various fields will gradually advance, and the two sides will become each other's largest trading partners. Exchanges and cooperation in the fields of energy, finance, infrastructure construction, education, culture and tourism will continue. deepen.

Both sides promise to maintain good communication and cooperation on major international and regional issues and make new contributions to regional peace and development...

This discussion was later called the Abu Dhabi Talks. The impact of the results of the talks directly led to the Saudi Arabian Region and the Chinese Autonomous Region becoming the two giants in the world, which had a huge impact on the pattern of the apocalyptic world.

In fact, the most important item in the talks is oil for weapons, oil for light industrial products, and oil for food.

With complementary advantages and strong alliances, the two Chinese autonomous regions under the control of Hu Shengsong and Li Baoqiang quickly embarked on the road of rapid development. Of course, Commander Zhang Yaoyang of the Indian autonomous region between Saudi Arabia and China is also prosperous and accounts for Take advantage of the benefits of the transfer station and trade zone.

Li Baoqiang sent the minutes of the meeting by telegram to the autonomous region government, and Song Yuanchao did a good job in subsequent improvement and implementation.

…

After a major decision has been made, it's time to relax.

Hu Shengsong decided to take Li Baoqiang around to enjoy the exotic scenery of Saudi Arabia, and the means of transportation was the Beijing Wrangler presented by Li Baoqiang.

This kind of Jeep is very suitable for Saudi Arabia's topography, and the out-of-print luxury cars in Hu Shengsong's garage have become expensive furnishings because their electronic components were burned by solar storms.

"I want as many as I want. In addition, the Hummer-type Jeep will be produced as soon as possible. I'm guaranteed!"

After Hu Shengsong finished singing, he stepped on the accelerator and drove the Wrangler out of the station. He was as arrogant as he wanted to be.

Li Baoqiang chuckled: "As expected of an oil king and a local tycoon!"

Li Baoqiang led the escort in a jeep and followed Hu Shengsong, driving along the route and enjoying the scenery along the way.

Although water resources are scarce in Saudi Arabia, there are still flowers, grass and fountains in wealthy areas.

After leaving Abu Dhabi and heading west, I soon discovered that the highway had changed to almost no green. There were bare areas everywhere, with highway forks and signboards indicating the destination in each direction.

The highway travels through the Gobi desert, and you can always encounter oases inadvertently along the way. Where there are oases, there are villages and towns.

What surprised Li Baoqiang was that there were actually wheat fields in the desert, and they seemed to be growing well. The most common large animal in the desert must be camels.

However, these scenes have lost the color of the previous life, and everything is shrouded in a desolate apocalyptic sadness. The most important feature is popularity. The population has become sparse, and there are almost no cars on the road. Running on the broken highway, there are only Hu Shengsong and Li Baoqiang's jeep pairing.

This is the end of the world! Even Saudi Arabia, which is extremely wealthy, has its mountains and rivers shattered and lifeless due to the impact of the catastrophe. The luxurious buildings and luxury cars that were everywhere in the previous life have now become a passing smoke, lying in the original place. The ground turned into a pile of rickety buildings and steel rubbish.

The road is long and long, and the road to rebuilding the glory of the past life is still very long.

Li Baoqiang was meditating while walking.

The convoy drove all the way to the shore of the Persian Gulf. Hu Shengsong was very high-spirited and pointed to the strait and said to Li Baoqiang: "Look, this is the Persian Gulf. It is located between the Arabian Peninsula and the Iranian Plateau. It starts from the mouth of the Shatt al-Arab River in the northwest and reaches the Strait of Hormuz in the southeast. It is about 990 kilometers long, 56 to 338 kilometers wide, and covers an area of ​​240,000 square kilometers.

Most of the Iranian side is deeper than 80 meters, the Arabian Peninsula side is generally shallower than 35 meters, and the deepest at the mouth of the bay is 110 meters.

There are many islands in the bay, most of which are coral islands.

This area has been an important maritime transportation route since ancient times, and many coastal residents are engaged in navigation, commerce, fishing and pearl mining.

After World War II, oil from the Arabian Peninsula and Iran was mainly transported via the Persian Gulf.

The coastal countries include: Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Oman. The Gulf region is the world's largest oil producer and supplier, with proven oil reserves accounting for more than half of the world's total reserves, and annual output. Accounting for one-third of the world's total production.

The oil produced is transported to all parts of the world via the Strait of Hormuz, and is known as the "Treasure House of Petroleum".

Brother, this is the world’s big oil depot, this is where I made my fortune, I must keep it firmly under my control, and you, my friend, I hope you can help me!”

Li Baoqiang secretly admired that Hu Shengsong knew this place well and seemed to be determined to control the Gulf area.

However, as Hu Shengsong introduced, there are many countries and ethnic groups here, and religious conflicts are also frequent. Hu Shengsong must first take root here to become king and hegemon, but the road will not be smooth.

"No problem, we are all Chinese people, and haven't we reached a strategic cooperation agreement? If I help you, I will gain a lot!"

Li Baoqiang took back his thoughts and gave Hu Shengsong a reassurance.

"That's good, brother, look at my big toy, let's compete to see who can reach the other side first, haha!"

Hu Shengsong was several years older than Li Baoqiang, and things were going smoothly at this time, so he was very playful.

Li Baoqiang took a closer look and realized, holy shit, two huge hot air balloons were slowly heating and inflating, and the dry hot air balloons were becoming plump.

"You can really do hot air ballooning and competitions!"

Li Baoqiang was speechless for a while.

"Haha, that's right. I took this thing to Kyoto for a meeting. Apart from being a bit colder, there's nothing serious about it. It's very safe!"

"Where did you get it? It looks a bit old!"

Li Baoqiang looked at the slowly rising hot air balloon suspiciously.

"Brother, you didn't know this! The Persian Gulf is the holy land of hot air ballooning. My two hot air balloons are the stocks of those clubs. It's no problem. Don't worry. Go up high and look far away to see how big my territory is, brother. !”

Li Baoqiang and two soldiers boarded a hot air balloon. The operation is very simple. Heating rises, turning off the heating lowers, and a small rudder controls the direction.

Hu Shengsong also boarded another hot air balloon with two followers. He stretched out his thumb towards Li Baoqiang and raised it. The two hot air balloons took off into the sky and the competition began.
Chapter completed!
