Wen Tiejun had to lower his head and apologize, "Joint-stock companies are a new thing, and we have been exploring it. This is why I ask you to serve as an independent director. You have rich experience, and I have to rely on you to point out any deficiencies found."
Come help us correct it."
After all, he is the top leader of a ministerial-level enterprise, so he must be given face.
After softening his tone, Yao Yuan filled Wen Tiejun's beer and said, "Joint bidding is not impossible, Mr. Xiong, please tell me the conditions."
Xiong Jinhua looked at Wen Tiejun again, thought for a while, and said, "Let's distribute it according to proportions. Offshore Oil Corporation is the main company, accounting for 70% of the shares, and Petroleum Corporation has 25% of the shares. Uh, Dongfang Petroleum can get 5%.
Shares. Of course, the capital contribution is also based on this ratio, and Dongfang Petroleum’s financial pressure is very light.”
He knew that this distribution plan would not satisfy Yao Yuan, so he added, "However, Dongfang Petroleum can invest in shares with other resources, not necessarily with foreign exchange."
As soon as these words came out, even Jiang Yong, who didn't understand business, looked at Xiong Jinhua in shock, as if he was looking at a fool.
Yao Yuan blinked, completely confused as to what psychology led CNOOC to dare to come up with such a plan. He asked, "What do you mean by Mr. Li?"
"No." Xiong Jinhua shook his head, "But this is a resolution reached at the meeting, and we can only implement it."
Yao Yuan was stunned for a moment, then raised his glass and said, "Drink and drink. Once you've eaten and drank enough, I'll arrange for someone to take you around and have fun. It's not a wasted trip."
Wen Tiejun basically guessed that Yao Yuan would react this way, and said quickly, "Xiao Yao, you don't know something. If Dongfang Petroleum bids independently, the chance of winning is very slim."
Xiong Jinhua went on to say, "The United States, France, the United Kingdom, and Japan have all proposed a basket of economic cooperation plans to the UAE and invested in the UAE in many fields. Among them, the United States has been the most vigorous. They signed a deal with the UAE worth 1.2 billion
U.S. dollar arms sales contract.”
"Xiao Yao, this information has been verified." Wen Tiejun said in a deep voice, "You should know who these countries are supporting. Without national support, Dongfang Petroleum has almost no chance of winning."
Yao Yuan asked calmly, "So what economic cooperation plan did you propose?"
The bidding money is only on the surface. To obtain the Sedan Oilfield franchise, the key depends on the previous efforts. It can even be said that you must first have economic cooperation before you are qualified to bid. This is an unspoken rule.
Xiong Jinhua smiled and said, "We have proposed cooperation with the UAE in the field of crops and provide some agricultural products to the UAE."
Yao Yuan couldn't help but laugh and shook his head helplessly.
"We can only go so far, but it's better than nothing," Wen Tiejun said.
They obviously don't know what Nippon Chemical is doing in Turkmenistan. In order to suppress Dongfang Petroleum, the Japanese government provided interest-free US dollar loans, and Nippon Chemical took out US$2.5 billion!
Yao Yuan shook his head slightly and said, "The intensity is too different."
"It is unknown how many reserves there are in the Sedan area. The risk is too great. Besides, we have nothing else to offer. As for foreign exchange, we are even more lacking." Xiong Jinhua said.
Yao Yuan said, "I have already mastered the information you mentioned. What the United States sold to the UAE was F-15 fighter jets, very advanced third-generation fighters. Japan provided an interest-free loan with a limit of US$700 million and a term of 10
In 2017, the UK proposed financial cooperation, and the conditions were very good."
Xiong Jinhua was stunned.
He didn't expect that Yao Yuan knew more detailed information than they had.
Yao Yuan changed to a more comfortable posture and said, "If the National Petroleum Corporation and the National Offshore Oil Corporation really want to jointly participate in the bidding with Dongfang Petroleum, they can only use Dongfang Petroleum as the main bidder. You should know better than me that Dongfang Petroleum is a private enterprise.
, there is no way to obtain domestic oil and gas fields, and even applying for wholesale and retail licenses for refined oil requires paying a huge price."
"I am not opposed to such an economic policy. On the contrary, I support it. Under such circumstances, Dongfang Petroleum can only ensure its development by continuously expanding its territory overseas. The most important reason is what President Wen just said,
Oriental Petroleum has very rich experience in overseas bidding, but you, you have nothing."
Xiong Jinhua fell silent after these words.
After a while, Xiong Jinhua said in a deep voice, "If you insist on this, we can only bid separately, but the ugly words are ahead. The country will not give any endorsement to Dongfang Petroleum. This is your own business."
"Is this a threat?" Yao Yuan asked with a smile.
Xiong Jinhua said, "I am just stating the facts and it counts for nothing."
Yao Yuan nodded slightly, "Dongfang Petroleum has never considered seeking state support from the beginning."
He secretly thought, you cannot represent the country.
Wen Tiejun saw the deadlock and said quickly, "Xiao Yao, take a step back and say that after you get the oil field, you need to explore and exploit it. As far as I know, Dongfang Petroleum has not yet mastered the shallow sea oil field development technology."
"The National Petroleum Corporation doesn't have complete control, does it?" Yao Yuan said.
Wen Tiejun said, "But shallow-sea oil fields with a water depth of 100 meters are no problem."
"We have established a strategic cooperative relationship with Halliburton. In fact, Dongfang Petroleum has mastered the second-generation offshore drilling platform technology." Yao Yuan said.
This time it was Wen Tiejun's turn to be stunned, as he dared to believe that his lover's skills had already advanced to the front.
Dongfang Petroleum definitely has no financial problems. Now that the technical problems have been solved, they can really bid independently without any pressure. Since Yao Yuan has not considered state support, there must be other ways.
Wen Tiejun couldn't help but look at Xiong Jinhua.
Xiong Jinhua hesitated for a moment and said, "Give Dongfang Petroleum at most 10% of the shares, and no more."
"15%." Yao Yuan said with a smile, "5% for you, 10% for the Petroleum Corporation, no more."
When he heard the number "15%", Xiong Jinhua couldn't help but get excited. After listening to Yao Yuan's words, his excited heart dropped to the ground.
Xiong Jinhua got angry, stood up and said, "Then let's bid separately."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Wen Tiejun hesitated for a moment and finally did not leave.
"Mr. Wen, do you have something to say?" Yao Yuan asked with a smile.
Wen Tiejun was helpless. He turned around and saw Xiong Jinhua leaving, and then sighed and said, "I don't want to go through this muddy water, but I have no choice."
"Let me take a guess." Yao Yuan thought for a while and said, "Is there someone else above Xiong Jinhua?"
Wen Tiejun said nothing.
Yao Yuan basically understood, nodded slightly and said, "The long-term cooperation agreement between Dongfang Petroleum and Petroleum Corporation will not change. After winning the oil field, we will cooperate with Petroleum Corporation in exploration and production according to the previous model. Well, we can give shares
."
"Didn't you sign a strategic cooperation agreement with Halliburton?" Wen Tiejun said.
Yao Yuan said, "Yes, but it is only for Azerbaijan's oil and gas fields. The main purpose of cooperation with Halliburton is to obtain the technology they transferred. We have already begun research on the fourth-generation offshore drilling platform."
"Intergenerational research?" Wen Tiejun gasped.
Yao Yuan nodded affirmatively.
Commander Wen Tie sighed, "Okay, in that case, it's time for me to return home."
He was forced to join the company by the National Offshore Oil Corporation, and when the talks collapsed, he had an excuse to retreat back to China.
