At night, a small club villa outside the Fifth Ring Road.
Because he knew Xiao Qi's habits, Cao Zhichong did not book a reservation in a bustling restaurant. This small club is usually home to many salons, and when it comes to eating, there are not many people.
"Here is the most authentic Shandong cuisine, which is delicious and mellow. I used to like it the most." Sitting at the wine table, Cao Zhichong smiled and said to Xiao Qi, "But I knew Miss Du was coming. I should have gone."
Only in places where Northeastern cuisine is popular.”
"I'm not particular about eating." Du Feixing pursed her lips and smiled. She was much more confident now than before.
Although she knew that the two middle-aged men opposite her, one of whom was the boss of PetroChina, were both powerful figures, her husband was more dazzling than them, so there was no need to be timid or humble.
In fact, from Du Feixing's perspective, it can be seen that these two people are unabashedly flattering to Xiao Qi, just like Liu Chang.
"Female stars generally rarely eat, especially at night, right?" Kang Yuanjun said, "But I think Miss Du, you are a bit thinner. If you are pregnant with Qishao's child, that won't work.
.”
"If it comes then, I will definitely eat Northeastern stew all day long." Du Feixing smiled again, "But Director Kang, you are wrong. I still have to eat something every night, such as fruits and vegetables.
...On the other hand, those female stars in Hong Kong and Taiwan wish they could be like the models and live on mineral water for three meals a day."
"I don't know what's so good about that. You're ruining yourself." Kang Yuanjun said disdainfully. "Look at our older generation of artists, that's called natural! It's definitely not trying to attract others' attention through some crooked means."
Kang Yuanjun is also an old-school person, and he doesn't think highly of those impetuous celebrities, so he naturally doesn't speak politely.
Of course, this was because he was familiar with Xiao Qi, otherwise he would not have dared to say these words in front of Xiao Qi that seemed to allude to Du Feixing. Although he had no such intention at all.
"Haha, why are you talking about the entertainment industry?" Xiao Qi smiled and changed the topic, "We are here today,? Come on, Myolie, pour some for us all. Director Cao has to drink two more drinks today.
No!"
"You're so polite, Mr. Qi!"
Cao Zhichong stood up quickly, held the cup with both hands and asked Du Feixing to pour the wine.
This is the best thing about Lao Cao. He knows what it means to repay kindness and what it means to be unassuming.
, that is definitely a senior official in the Hua Kingdom, and there is no need to please Xiao Qi like before.
But Cao Zhichong has never had this mentality and is still as respectful as ever.
There are many reasons. First of all, Cao Zhichong knows how he got his current position. If it weren't for Xiao Qi's guidance in the past few years, and Xiao Qi's help in getting into Boss Niu's circle, how could he have his current position?
Then, although Cao Zhichong will also be a high-ranking official in the future, his authority will not be that great, and Xiao Qi will still need to continue to look after and help him with his work.
What's more, although he has climbed higher, Xiao Qi's two backers are one of the more than thirty most powerful people in China, especially Boss Niu. It is a certainty that he will be admitted to the permanent seat in the future. If he decides now
With a stinking face, can Boss Niu use him again in the future? - No one wants to use a guy who is not familiar with him.
Kang Yuanjun's mentality was similar to that of Cao Zhichong. He sat down with a wine glass in his hand, toasted with everyone and drank it all in one gulp.
Naturally, Xiao Qi and Du Feixing drank champagne. With Xiao Qi here, Du Feixing was not the one to accompany the drink at all, so there was no need for her to drink by herself. Even though her drinking capacity was much better than Xiao Qi's.
"Speaking of which," Cao Zhichong suddenly said after taking two bites of food, "Although it seems like a good location, once you get up there, you will be busy due to the strategy of introducing various energy sources. Not to mention anything else, it's just Russia.
The pipelines, the pipelines in Central Asia and the pipelines in South Asia, are enough to keep us busy for seven or eight years."
"This is a hard job." Xiao Qi nodded directly, "Basically, after completing these things, Director Cao, you should retire. At most, when you retire, or when it is better, that is the best
Reward.”
"So I'm a little bit unwilling to do it. After working hard for so many years, I still have to be a tired scalper in the end." Cao Zhichong said with a smile.
Although he was a little embarrassed and smiled bitterly, Xiao Qi could see that Cao Zhichong was more proud and motivated.
, Cao Zhichong's level has risen, and his sense of responsibility and motivation have also increased.
Among those who are in politics, who wouldn’t want to paint a wonderful picture with his own pen and ink?
Although the work Cao Zhichong mentioned is very long-term and arduous, is it not an honor?
From now on, when everyone enjoys the convenience of these land pipelines, everyone will say "Well done, Director Cao".
Kang Yuanjun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Old Cao, don't complain here, how about we change things?? I'm not afraid of hardship or tiredness."
"Go, go, go!" Cao Zhichong sneered at his friend, "You've been suffering for so long, and you still don't allow me to be pretentious? Just wait and see from now on, I'm the one who can do big things!"
Kang Yuanjun was speechless for a while, but Du Feixing over there laughed softly.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I won't do anything to you in the future!" Cao Zhichong couldn't keep his face anymore, and raised his cup with a smile, "Come on, Lao Kang, let's have a drink together! The days are still long, we have to
Please support each other a lot!”
"Look at what you said, am I as stingy as you?" Kang Yuanjun clinked glasses with him and drank it all in one gulp.
The two of them have been good friends for decades, and they naturally know the difficulties in the officialdom. Without people above, people to support each other, and people below to do things, it is really difficult to do things well.
Fortunately, both of them have entered Niu Ruzheng's circle at the same time, and their big goals are the same. With such a deep friendship, they naturally don't have to worry about their relationship becoming sour in the future.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Qi is really my noble man." Cao Zhichong took a few more bites of food, drank more, and then said with a smile: "I complained to Mr. Qi before, why the superiors couldn't see my contribution, but in the end
Qi Shao said that there will be time for my performance later...and then we waited for such a big deal! Good guy, if it can be done well, China will not worry so much about foreign countries at least until the world's oil is exhausted.
Threat!"
What Cao Zhichong said is a bit exaggerated, but it is also very close to the truth.
China not only wants to build oil and natural gas pipelines from Russia on land, but also natural gas pipelines in countries such as Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan in the Middle East, oil and natural gas pipelines across Myanmar to the Bay of Bengal, and direct pipelines through Pakistan.
Oil and gas pipelines in the Arabian Sea.
In fact, this final pipeline is directly at the entrance to the Persian Gulf, which will not only save time, but also save a lot of transportation costs.
This is also the goal that China has been working towards since the 1990s.
It's just that it was blocked by the United States and Western countries before, so it couldn't start construction. Even now, it's not going so smoothly.
However, during the current financial crisis, perhaps under the strong request of oil-producing countries, it is possible to build this energy line.
The oil and natural gas pipeline from Myanmar to the Bay of Bengal is more obviously inserted into the key points of Southeast Asian countries, so that China's energy strategic ships do not need to pass through the Strait of Malacca and go directly from the angle between Sri Lanka and India.
Straight up the road, you can reach the sea entrance of Myanmar, unload oil and natural gas to the port, and then transport it back to China through pipelines.
In this way, neither Singapore nor Malaysia, nor even Indonesia and the Philippines, can pose any strategic threat to China.
Moreover, Singapore, which is famous for its oil processing and transshipment trade, has to kneel down and its good days are gone forever.
Compared with the Pakistan one, it should be said that the Myanmar one is more practical because it is not so close to the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf and will not touch the sensitive nerves of those Western countries.
However, the realistic consideration is that the relationship between Myanmar and China is not very good, far from the brotherhood of Pakistan, so this channel is also very difficult.
However, according to what Cao Zhichong said, if all the pipelines are really built as planned and put to use, not only will China's oil and natural gas reserves be able to reach a terrifying level, but it will also be able to offset China's power in all aspects.
The weakness of our maritime military strength has greatly increased our confidence in our energy strategy.
Because of this, Niu Ru actively elaborated on this point of view at the executive meeting of the government and asked Cao Zhichong, whose strength and patience had been proven, to do this.
Errands are hard work, but they are hard work that the whole country values and pays attention to.
Cao Zhichong has eaten all kinds of delicious food in PetroChina, enjoyed it, and is not lacking in salary and benefits. Now on his last shift, he was given such a big task that will go down in history. He said that he was complaining about the hard work.
, without some excitement and enthusiasm, it is just nonsense.
Xiao Qi was worried that Cao Zhichong wanted fame and was unwilling to work down-to-earth.
Now when you see how energetic he is, you can see that Uncle Niu really knows how to judge people.
With his guidance, supervision and coordination, and Lao Cao working hard below, the success of the energy strategy is just around the corner! (The novel "The Age of Dreams" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there will also be a 100% lucky draw gift
