Spring Breeze 1991

Originally planned to spend two days with my family before leaving, but it was delayed for more than a week because of Mr. Li's interview and participation in meetings held by several ministries and commissions.

However, they have gained a lot. Because of their performance in the East China floods, Nanfang Industrial and other enterprises have been highly recognized by the country, and several advanced companies have been evaluated.

Yao Yuan kept the official media from reporting on Nanfang Industrial and Chunfeng Group because of his rhetoric. As for other companies, he really had no choice.

This is expected, but for the tens of millions of victims in East China, Yao Yuan can no longer take care of it.

The Boeing-747, which has been flying continuously for more than half a month, arrived at the Capital Airport on the morning of October 10 after several days of overhaul and maintenance. Time to arrive at 17:747 pm.

Baku belongs to the Fourth East District, 4 hours later than the capital, and the flight time is 6 hours. Therefore, Yao Yuan and his party arrived in Baku around [-]:[-] pm local time.

Little Aliyev personally brought a motorcade to greet him at the tarmac, laid out a red carpet and organized a welcoming ceremony, which was so grand that Yao Yuan couldn't laugh or cry.

After getting in the car, Yao Yuan said, "Charles, didn't you say you won't hold the ceremony? Why is it so big?"

Little Aliyev named himself Charles, which is equivalent to a nickname, and most people don't know it.

Little Aliyev said with a smile, "You Chinese people like ceremonies. Besides, you have been back for such a long time, and it is rare to come here. We also want to express our enthusiasm."

Shaking his head helplessly, Yao Yuan said straight to the point, "Let's get down to business. I greeted you before. I'm here this time to implement the oil pipeline."

"Don't worry, you haven't been here for several months. Don't forget that although Mr. Su Jianmin is the executive deputy general manager of the Azerbaijan State Oil Company, you still have to make up your mind on major issues. It's hard for you to come over. Have a look at the oil fields?" Little Aliyev said.

Under Yao Yuan's strong request, he and all the executives of Dongfang Petroleum Company quit Azerbaijan National Oil Company, leaving only Su Jianmin as the executive deputy general manager of Azerbaijan National Oil Company, and Yao Yuan's general manager position was handed over to Aliya Jr. Husband concurrently.

Aliyev was very happy with Yao Yuan's actions.

At the beginning, Aliyev had just come to the stage and his feet were unsteady, so Yao Yuan, who strongly supported him, naturally flattered and supported him in every possible way, wishing he could wear a pair of trousers.

However, as time went by, Aliyev secured the presidency. Looking back, the only person who was the general manager of the national oil company that was able to generate a large amount of foreign exchange was a foreigner, even if he regarded him as a foreigner. Yao Yuan, who is a "close comrade in arms", still has pimples in his heart.

Just when he didn't know what to do, Yao Yuan made an international phone call, saying that he would resign from the position of general manager, and suggested that Aliyev Jr. should take up the position concurrently. As for the specific operation of the company, the CEO of Dongfang Petroleum Company could The official Qin Zhenjun came to serve as the executive deputy general manager to take charge.

Aliyev was overjoyed to get the best of both worlds, and at the same time felt a little guilty about Yao Yuan.

This is what little Aliyev meant by what he just said.

Yao Yuan was going to visit the oil field, so he said kindly, "How about going directly to the oil field?"

"No problem, go directly." Little Aliyev readily agreed.

A group of people rushed directly to the Baku oil field.

First went to the old oil field in Baku, which was an onshore oil field. Su Jianmin and Qin Zhenjun were already waiting there, and Jason from Halliburton and Camille from Total were also welcoming them.

After exchanging pleasantries, Su Jianmin and Qin Zhenjun accompanied Yao Yuan to the front and reported to work first.

Su Jianmin is the general manager of Dongfang Petroleum, and Qin Zhenjun is the chief engineer. After the work at the Qiumen Oilfield was on track, the two of them shifted their focus to the Baku Oilfield.

"Mr. Yao, 80.00% of the resumption rate of the old Baku oilfield has been completed, and the remaining 20.00% are hard bones. Either the equipment and facilities are seriously aging, or there are many problems in the oil well. After discussing with Lao Qin, I decided to set up a special The working group is responsible for the resumption and production increase of these old oil fields, and shifts the focus to the exploration and production of shallow sea oil areas." Su Jianmin said.

Yao Yuan nodded, "Okay, easy first and then difficult. Azerbaijan is in urgent need of foreign exchange, and they desperately want to increase production. For us, they want to use oil to repay the money for the infrastructure contract. It is good for everyone to increase production as soon as possible. Blindly deal with old oil wells." It's not appropriate to compete."

"Yes, the Baku Oilfield can increase production according to the timing, and that's no problem." When Su Jianmin was speaking, he looked back at Jason and Camille.

In order to achieve growth as soon as possible, it is not enough to rely solely on Dongfang Petroleum.Dongfang Petroleum is connected to the power of the Petroleum Corporation, even so, it is still difficult to meet the demand.

Under such circumstances, it is inevitable to introduce Halliburton and Total to cooperate in exploration and mining.

Of course, Halliburton and Total paid a considerable price to become the strategic partner of Azerbaijan State Oil Company, while oil giants such as Standard Mobil and Chevron can only get contracts on a single project, which is not meaningful. Big.

In order to become a strategic partner, Halliburton provided technology to Dongfang Petroleum, while Total Petroleum transferred 8% of the shares to Southern Industrial.

After Su Jianmin finished his report, Qin Zhenjun reported the technical situation, and they were able to proceed according to the plan.

Yao Yuan, however, noticed the worry hidden between the eyebrows and eyes of the two, and then thought of Aliyev's behavior after getting off the plane, and vaguely felt that there was something he didn't know.

But he didn't ask, but continued to inspect the oil field calmly.After inspecting the old oil field, it was completely dark, and the group returned to the city. Aliyev Jr. organized a grand welcome dinner, and Aliyev attended it in person, so that those who participated in the banquet had a better understanding of Yao Yuan's status. Intuitive feeling.

On the stage, Aliyev put his arms around Yao Yuan's shoulders and said emotionally, "Everyone, Mr. Yao Yuan will always be my good friend and the Azerbaijani people forever!"

Everyone applauded excitedly, but Yao Yuan's mood was not as happy as it appeared on the surface. He was basically sure that there must have been some changes in Azerbaijan, and there might be external interference.

Aliyev stayed until the end of the welcome banquet, which is rare.

Before leaving, he shook Yao Yuan's hand and said, "We haven't had a good chat for more than half a year, Mr. Yao, I'm busy during this time, you stay in Baku for a few more days, let's have a good talk sometime .”

Yao Yuan naturally agreed, but his heart became more and more heavy.
