Spring Breeze 1991

Only representatives of the Kazakh government and Dongfang Petroleum Company were left in the huge venue, and it suddenly seemed empty.

Yao Yuan and Nazaryev shook hands and exchanged a few words of greeting, and immediately got to the point. This time, Nazaryev did not sit on the rostrum, but came down to sit on an equal footing with Yao Yuan, and the two sides had a face-to-face meeting.

Obviously, the next step is the dialogue and contest between the two big bosses.

It is very obvious that Nazaryev was moved. Dongfang Petroleum gave Kazakhstan the construction of a new capital for free. Where can I find such a good thing?

Of course, there is no free lunch in the world, let alone a free new capital. Nazaryev has two main issues to figure out. First, what guarantee will Dongfang Petroleum provide, and second, what kind of return will Dongfang Petroleum expect.

I'm afraid that the operation franchise of oil and gas resources alone will not work. Nazaryev is mentally prepared.

"Mr. Yao, the presidents of Azerbaijan and other countries mentioned you many times when they talked with me on the phone. I have admired you for a long time. Dongfang Petroleum is a very powerful and newly emerging world-class oil company. The Kazakh government welcomes Dongfang Petroleum very much. Oil comes to Kazakhstan for investment." Nazaryev said with a smile.

This kind of official speech is enough to listen to, but it is actually a foreshadowing without nutrition.

Yao Yuan nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Dongfang Petroleum has been deeply involved in Central Asia, and is committed to helping the people in Central Asia, especially the people of Kazakhstan, live a happier life. When the Buck oil pipeline passed through your country before, the cooperation between us has been very good. joy."

I am the same when you speak official language. If you are not in a hurry, I am even less in a hurry.

Nazaryev nodded with a smile, and he could tell that Yao Yuan would not bring it up if he didn't take the initiative to speak up. Everyone knows that whoever mentions it first will be passive.

Nazaryev didn't think about it that much anymore. The construction of the new capital is the absolute center of work for the Kazakh government in the next five years. Besides, it may not be possible to lose the initiative if it is proposed first.

At least it is a close situation.

"Mr. Yao, the government of Kazakhstan welcomes your proposal to build a new capital for free, but I don't know if you have a specific plan." Nazaryev asked seriously.

Here comes the real deal.

Yao Yuan looked at Wan Quangui who was sitting second to last on the left, Wan Quangui nodded, took out a stack of materials from his briefcase, not thick, but they were all color printing paper, and handed them to the staff of Kazakhstan .

"Mr. President, this is an overall plan that I entrusted several design companies to make according to your requirements for the new capital. Due to space limitations, what is provided now is a partial rendering. It includes the Presidential Palace, the Capitol, the Government Building, The post and telecommunications building, the commercial plaza, the future National Oil and Gas Management Company, etc.” Yao Yuan said.

what!

Even the blueprints came out?

Even if it is a partial rendering!

This sincerity alone moved Nazaryev very much, showing that Dongfang Petroleum really took the construction of the new capital of Kazakhstan to heart and put it into action.

It is not difficult to find a design company to design a set of planning plans according to Kazakhstan's requirements, and it does not cost a lot of money. It is a piece of cake for the world's top ten oil companies. The problem is that these companies do not want to participate in Kazakhstan's development from the beginning. For the construction of the new capital, naturally, they would not think of going to a design company to come up with a preliminary plan.

But the Eastern Petroleum Company did just that.

Lin Wei took out a budget form, handed it to the staff of Kazakhstan, and said, "Mr. President, we have made a preliminary budget based on the preliminary design plan, please have a look."

Even the budget is made!

Nazaryev can be said to be impressed by Dongfang Petroleum. The Kazakh government's budget has not yet been made, but Dongfang Petroleum has been made first.

There is only one copy of the two materials. Obviously, the purpose of Dongfang Petroleum is to let Nazaryev read it, without considering other people. In Nazaryev's view, this shows respect for his authority.

Even small details like this are noticed.

Nazaryev quickly looked carefully.

All the buildings of the main government agencies have planning plans. Looking at the contents, we can know that Dongfang Petroleum did not deal with the matter, but worked hard.

Yao Yuan explained, "Mr. President, we have an investment holding related design company, and we can come up with the best design plan according to your requirements at any time."

Nazaryev raised his head and said, "Mr. Yao, you have worked hard, and I have seen your sincerity."

Immediately, he looked at the budget statement, each item was very specific, and he could see that it was not done casually, and was well-founded.

Finally, Nazaryev's eyes fell on the string of figures in the general budget, a very long string of figures, very specific.

He was shocked.

He looked up at Yao Yuan in astonishment.

Yao Yuan was smiling, and the executives of Chunfeng Group on his left and right sides were also smiling, showing strong confidence.

Nazaryev calmed down slowly, and said, "Mr. Yao, more than 200 billion US dollars is not a small amount. I'm sorry. I don't doubt the strength of Dongfang Petroleum. It's just that this is indeed a very large sum of money."

He lost his composure, because Kazakhstan's GDP last year was only a little over 200 billion US dollars, and Dongfang Petroleum had to spend so much money to build a new capital!

Yao Yuan smiled and said, "Dongfang Petroleum is just one of the companies I control. It is true that Dongfang Petroleum cannot afford such a large amount of money, but it is not difficult for the holding parent company to come up with 200 billion U.S. dollars through free capital, financing and other means. .”

"Mr. President, we plan to complete the construction of all government office buildings and infrastructure within three years, with an average annual investment of about 70 billion U.S. dollars. At that time, your country's government agencies can move to the new capital for office before 2000. .”

The construction of the new capital is free of charge, of course, the construction of public buildings such as government agencies and the infrastructure and public facilities of the entire urban area, such as hospitals and schools.Other commercial construction projects are naturally not included in the free construction.

"In fact, after signing the agreement, we can organize 1996 people and supporting projects to enter the site within a month, and we can implement a construction fund of 50 billion US dollars in [-]." Yao Yuan stopped here.

Dongfang Petroleum's attitude has been very clear, and it fully reflects its determination and strength.

He Xueli timely handed in a company introduction about Chunfeng Group, which was the first time that Chunfeng Group disclosed its asset scale to the outside world.

When Nazaryev saw a large number of group companies distributed all over the world under the control of Chunfeng Group, he gasped again and again.Each group company is worth more than US$10 billion, and some of them are well-known companies in the world.

In fact, what he saw was only the enterprises [-]% controlled by Chunfeng Group. There are more enterprises participating through investment. how many.

Among them, the equity relationship is even more complicated, which made Lin Wei terrified when he saw it.

Nazaryev has nothing to worry about. Dongfang Petroleum has the ability, strength, determination, and sincerity. The promise to build the new capital of Kazakhstan for free is not just talking about it, nor is it a painting, but it is really tangible. of.

It is really hard to refuse to basically complete the construction of the new capital within three years.

The next step is for Nazaryev to make the conditions.

What price does Kazakhstan have to pay in exchange for the promise of Dongfang Petroleum.

Nazaryev was mentally prepared, and he smiled, "Mr. Yao, you paid such a high price, I'm afraid it's not just for oil and gas resource management concessions?"

Yao Yuan said directly, "Yes, we need a 50-year exclusive franchise for all mineral deposits in Kazakhstan. The franchise should include exploration rights, mining rights, mineral product management rights, etc."

The people on Hafang's side were stunned.

This asking price is not too high.

Nazaryev thought for a while, and said, "The concession of oil and gas resources is no problem. We can make concessions on the share ratio, such as [-] to [-] points."

This concession is not too small. Previously, Kazakhstan had to share 10%.That is to say, for every US$6 earned by the oil company that has obtained the operating concession, the Kazakh government will take US$2, and the net profit that the oil company can keep in its hands is about US$3-[-].

In terms of 4-5 points, the oil company can have a profit of [-]-[-] US dollars, which is almost twice the original amount. This is a problem of coming and going.

Yao Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. President, [-]-[-]% is the basic condition, but the exclusive franchise of all mines is also necessary. I don't mean to bargain with you. What I said is our bottom line. I can give you a promise. After Dongfang Petroleum obtains the exclusive franchise of all mineral deposits, it will be able to make your country's GDP exceed [-] billion U.S. dollars within ten years."

"It can be written into the agreement, and if you don't meet that goal, you can take our exclusive franchise back."

Nazaryev looked at Yao Yuan, thinking quickly in his mind.

Kazakhstan is very, very rich in mineral deposits. It is the country with the most types of mineral deposits and reserves in Central Asia. Among them, the proven reserves of copper mines rank fourth in the world, reaching 3500 million tons, while China is a copper-deficient country.

To pay such a huge price, it is impossible for Yao Yuan to let go of Kazakhstan's mineral treasure house.

He had been thinking about the mining company for a long time.

As the basic raw materials of industry, more than 100 kinds of mineral deposits headed by iron ore are very important, and their status is not inferior to that of oil and natural gas resources.

Originally he didn't intend to have an exclusive franchise for all mines, because it would be very difficult.The Petrochemical Corporation refused to cooperate with Dongfang Petroleum, tried its best to suppress Dongfang Petroleum, and announced the withdrawal of the East Coast Petrochemical Base, which made Yao Yuan very angry.

At the same time, it also reminded Yao Yuan that all eggs cannot be put in one basket, and the overseas layout must be accelerated.
