In just half an hour, Yao Yuan left Aliyev's residence. When he came out, the password box was gone.
Gaidar placed the bid opening day on the day after the results of the election. His intention was obvious - after winning the election, he would immediately implement it as president.
It's time to plan, there are only fifteen days left.
Yao Yuan didn't know how Aliyev fought back at the last moment in history, but he firmly believed that with sufficient financial support now, Aliyev's counterattack would only win more brilliantly.
After returning to Baku, Yao Yuan started sightseeing around and had a good look at this beautiful city on the Caspian Sea Peninsula.
The happiest person is Lin Wei. He no longer worries about money and has a good appreciation of the exotic scenery. If you don’t consider the chaotic public security, Azerbaijan is a country worth traveling to. Of course, as the capital, Baku’s security
Still very good.
Because of its oil resources, Azerbaijan's life during the Soviet period was very comfortable, much better than that of other "fiscal transfer countries". Those who least wanted the Soviet Union to disintegrate were the "fiscal transfer countries". Without the Soviet Union, i continued fiscal transfer payments
It's gone, and the days are getting harder and harder.
However, after more than a year of chaos, the national treasury has long been empty, and it is not known whose pockets have gone into it. Without order, people's lives have become increasingly difficult. Of course, Yongan Group's daily necessities have also entered Azerbaijan, and even
Union Bank also began to open branches here.
Azerbaijan's own oil and gas development capabilities are very limited, and it does not have enough funds, so it is very difficult to develop it on its own. The best and fastest way to turn oil resources into money is to introduce foreign oil companies and rely on foreign capital to solve the problem.
BP, Exxon of the United States, Total of France, Chevron of the United States, and Shell of the Netherlands, these oil giants gathered in Baku.
In the next few days, trade delegations from the above-mentioned buyers paid official visits to Azerbaijan and began to help domestic companies bid. The most powerful one was the United States, which actually came to have an assistant secretary of state and talked with Gaidar.
He spent half a day before flying away to continue his originally planned diplomatic visit.
Lin Wei shook the newspaper in his hand and said angrily, "Even the Assistant Secretary of State has been dispatched. It's too much for them and it's not fair at all."
Yao Yuan is also reading the newspaper, but he is reading other news.
Lin Xiaohu couldn't help but smile and said, "Awei, can you read an English newspaper?"
"Uh, I don't understand." Lin Wei smiled awkwardly and pointed to Yelena beside him, "Xiaoye helped me translate. Xiaoye is very good and he also understands English, so he has two languages."
Yelena said, "Mr. Lin, he has three majors, Chinese, Russian and English. In fact, English is very easy to learn."
"I just can't learn." Lin Wei smiled honestly.
Yao Yuan put it in the newspaper and said, "The two businesses of oil and arms are often accompanied by national influence. The Baku oil field has huge development potential and is expected to be able to extract three billion tons of oil. The President of the United States came to cheer for everyone."
Not surprising."
"What should we do, should we just wait? If Aliyev loses the election, the US$20 million will be wasted." Lin Wei said worriedly.
Yao Yuan said, "You have already made your bet, and there is no point in regretting it. The competition for oil exploration rights is the most exciting gamble in the world, and it is also the gamble with the largest investment."
After experience in the Tyumen Oilfield, Lin Wei knew this industry very well, and said with emotion, "Obtaining the exploration rights is only the first step. When I think of the subsequent exploration costs, my heart can't bear it. Ayuan, is there any way to reduce the cost?
The cost? It’s too uncomfortable to continue investing dozens of exploration teams.”
Yao Yuan said helplessly, "Our exploration technology is not as good as theirs, so we can only use the human sea tactic."
"A well costs one million. I heard that if you are unlucky, you won't be able to find oil after two or three years of drilling, and you will lose more than a billion dollars." Lin Xiaohu said solemnly.
How long has it been? More than a year ago, I was still worried about making a hundred yuan a month. Now, the units mentioned in every word are measured in hundreds of millions. Lin Xiaohu's inner feelings are deeper than anyone else.
He is the only core member who is not involved in the business operations. The so-called bystanders often have deeper feelings.
Yao Yuan said, "Oil exploration is like this. Exxon Petroleum Company once lost more than 2 billion US dollars in exploration, which is equivalent to China's year's foreign exchange reserves."
Everyone was silent.
Lin Wei couldn't sit still and stood up and said, "Ayuan, find something to do. Just wait and do it. I'm always worried."
"If you really have some free time, ask Yelena to accompany you to the business reception held by Gaidar. Representatives of major oil companies are there to explore the truth." Yao Yuan said.
Lin Wei suddenly became energetic, "Okay, I'll go then, Xiaoye, let's go."
Lin Xiaohu arranged for two people to accompany Lin Wei and his wife.
Not long after, Lu Sen came.
He didn't bother to drink the water and reported in a low voice, "Boss, Aliyev has arrived in Baku and is staying at the Garden Hotel by the sea. He asked if he wanted to go over and meet him."
Yao Yuan shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not going. I've done what I have to do and just wait for the results."
"Okay." Russon continued, "Aliyev said that his son would come in person when the time comes."
Yao Yuan nodded.
After thinking about it, Yao Yuan said, "Arrange more people to ensure Aliyev's absolute safety."
"Are you worried that someone will do something bad to him?" Luson asked.
Yao Yuan said in a deep voice, "No one can say whether Heidar will jump over the wall in a hurry. There are only a few people around Aliyev, so there is a certain danger."
Lu Sen immediately said, "Understood, Yakov and the others have arrived, I will let them go."
"It must be kept secret." Yao Yuan emphasized.
"Understood." Lu Sen quickly went.
Late at night, Lin Wei came back, and with him came Camille, the representative of the French Total company, a very beautiful European woman, mature and capable.
Lin Wei said, "She suddenly came to me and said she wanted to cooperate with us. I thought about it and invited her over."
"Total..." Yao Yuan thought. From his memory, it seemed that Total Petroleum had indeed obtained the exploration rights for an oil block. Could it be that they were also optimistic about Aliyev?
Yao Yuan stood up and said, "Please come in."
Yelena immediately went to invite Camille to the living room.
"Mr. Yao." Kamil walked over with a charming waist and stretched out his hand from afar, "Southern Industrial's performance in the Tyumen oil area is eye-catching. Everyone exclaimed that just overnight, the oil service industry has grown.
A strong opponent.”
A very powerful woman.
Yao Yuan smiled and asked Camille to sit down, "We are a small company, not worth mentioning."
"The oilfield service contract in Samer Oilfield is not something that a small company can win. Mr. Jason from Halliburton appreciates you very much," Kamil said.
The intelligence systems of major oil companies are more powerful than those of many countries. It is not difficult for Total to figure out the business situation of Orient Oil Services Company, a subsidiary of Southern Industries, in the Tyumen oil region.
Kamil said, "I just don't know why Southern Industrial doesn't participate in the competition for the exploration rights of Samer Oilfield. Southern Industrial has great advantages."
Yao Yuan smiled and shook his head and said, "We are a new company, we are going step by step. Miss Camille, what do you want from me?"
"To cooperate, we at Total are willing to bid jointly with Southern Industrial."
