Chapter 452: Collecting Information

The newly built oil building has been novel in its equipment and bright windows. The spacious corridor is painted white and flawlessly, and 40-watt incandescent lamps one after another, making the corridor extremely bright. At this time, the rare elevators, safety instructions and other equipment are available in the building.

Interestingly, wisps of white smoke emerged in the innermost room of the corridor.

Although it looked like a fire broke out, everyone around the room knew that it was actually because the people inside smoked too much, and the lingering second-hand smoke floated out.

The meeting of directors of the Petroleum Corporation has lasted for a day and a night.

Still no results.

Discussions on the Anta Line, China-Kazakhstan Line and China-Arab Line are round after round. Even if someone asks for a vote, they will be stopped by the disadvantaged party. The discussion continues and soon changes from a long-distance running to a marathon.

Zhang Changting from Daqing was indeed caught off guard by Lin Yonggui. However, Anda Line was more prepared and received the most support in the early stage. Although Lin Yonggui also received the support of two deputy general managers and two directors, he still accounted for less than the majority in the 18-person meeting.

Both tried their best to try to convince the other directors to agree with their views.

This is not easy, especially to make the head office and branch profit equally, and even more benefits...

The lengthy meeting not only exhausted the directors inside, but also made it difficult for all parties to inquire about the news.

Several office staff were pretending to be preparing to serve tea and pour water, leaning on the door in a covert manner. In the early morning, they couldn't even pretend, so they simply snatched through the cracks of the door and sucked the second-hand smoke coming out of it. After a period of time, they slowly passed the news to the leaders of their respective departments.

The directors in the room were not sagging. Every few hours, there were always leaders who had to come out to get out of the way. Taking advantage of this time, he could get the latest news from his department and return to the negotiating table to play.

Joint venture issues, diplomatic issues, funding issues, jurisdiction issues... they are listed one by one, like little monsters. Every time one comes out, it will take a long time to bother everyone.

Later that day, Sucheng, which ended the Dahua Industrial Conference, also began to receive information about the meeting of directors of the China National Petroleum Corporation.

Just like a foreign oil company, the Information Bureau of Dahua Industrial will deliberately contact some employees of the CNPC Group to get some public information from them, and occasionally ask them to do some harmless work.

Many things are done by outsiders. They are extremely difficult, but if they are handed over to insiders, there is no need to worry about anything.

The rumors from government agencies are always spread faster than official documents, and they have their own soil to grow. The energy industry is even more inseparable from the collection and analysis of rumors.

Even state-owned enterprises will consciously or unconsciously search for information.

There is too much money involved here

Even companies like Shengli Oilfield produce an average of 500,000 barrels of crude oil per day. They are not counted in the world. Their annual output will reach 200 million barrels, and in 1993, the value will exceed 6 billion yuan. If these crude oils are reprocessed, each barrel can generate a profit of from as little as $2 to as much as $10, representing another value of $400 million to $2 billion.

With so much money, as long as there is a 1% fluctuation, it will generate 50 to 60 million US dollars in gains and losses. Not to mention paying attention to intelligence, even if you are raising an intelligence agency, it is more than enough.

If state-owned enterprises can still rely on national intelligence agencies, then Dahua Industry can only rely on its own information bureau.

Before the meeting of the directors of CNPC was over, Dong Feng first took out the analysis report of the Information Bureau, came to the office, handed it to Su Cheng, and said: "It seems that it is difficult to draw a conclusion. There are probably four directors who will decide to be neutral. Among the remaining 14 people, both sides may win over 7. The most important thing is that with the attitude of this general manager, he probably won't make a statement and tends to be mixed."

"It's a good ending for Lin Yonggui." Su Cheng opened a thin analysis report and said that Lin Yonggui's primary goal was to obtain the understanding of the Petroleum Corporation. Now, in the first round of confrontation between the two sides, we have begun to discuss the abolition of the Anta Line and the China-Kazakhstan Line. This is indeed a result that exceeds the expected one. It is no problem to maintain the primary goal.

In private, Su Cheng has no shortage of malicious thoughts. The director of the Daqing Administration Bureau is the most powerful competitor to the next general manager. So, even if these directors of the same level do not have much chance to get the position of general manager, they probably don’t mind giving Zhang Changting some trouble. Lin Yonggui took the initiative to take the lead in fighting the Anda Line, and I wonder how many people are happy to see it.

To vote for an abstention or even an appointment, it doesn't matter to many people.

Even if Zhang Changting becomes the general manager in the future, he cannot do anything about these top leaders who are far away from heaven.

Dong Feng was holding a report in his hand. He looked down at the confirmation, then handed it to Su Cheng, and said: "Several other management bureaus have called Krama*yi, probably asking about the feasibility of the China-Kazakhstan line or the China-Arab line. With this experience, several other management bureaus may also propose similar plans."

Su Cheng was stunned. He really didn't expect this situation. Under normal circumstances, any management bureau belongs to China National Petroleum Corporation. If they want to build oil pipelines, they always have to pass through China National Petroleum Corporation. However, with a rebellious precedent like Shengli Oilfield, other management bureaus can naturally propose new plans. Even if it is a similar China-Kazakhstan pipeline, different directions of travel represent different pipelines. Naturally, which management bureau will win the pipeline, which management bureau will have the greatest benefit.

The most important thing here is the management rights of 20 million tons of crude oil per year. Krama* has a branch of CNPC, but its current refining capacity may not be able to consume 140 million barrels of crude oil. Therefore, no matter which management agency can get tens of millions of barrels of oil, it can obtain more than 100 million US dollars of funds. For the boss of state-owned enterprises, there is nothing more meaningful than this.

With the current bank interest rate, 1 billion yuan is in hand. Even if you put one extra month, you will have tens of millions of interest. You can build an employee community.

As the director, if you don’t fight, don’t talk about anything else, the officials and employees below will first be in a hurry.

Su Cheng said slowly: "In addition to the location of the pipeline, what other requirements may be there?"

"Page 4. Gem machines are definitely interested in 1,000 kilometers of pipelines. The refining equipment of Dagang Oilfield has also improved. If local refineries are built, I think they should be willing to intervene, let alone the construction company and the design institute. They all have reasons to agree to the China-Arab Line and the China-Arab Line. Not the Anda Line. Because the Anda Line is all-in-one in Daqing Oilfield, the China-Arab Line and the China-Arab Line can be evenly distributed within the headquarters."

Su Cheng heard it a little funny and shook his head and said, "I didn't want to know before. Once it doesn't go well, the Anda Line will be really internal and external troubles."

Dong Feng was a serious person. He coughed and continued: "Indeed, the China-Kazakhstan line needs to be connected to Xinjiang. The branches there are weak, and other companies can get a share of the pie. If connected to Daqing, including engineering construction, they may be swallowed by the Daqing Oilfield itself. Therefore, the branches are not very active."

"There are more than 2,000 kilometers from Xinjiang to the mainland. Have you done an assessment? Do they care about it?" Su Cheng was constantly training the evaluator of the Information Bureau, that is, his own intelligence officer. While he was still able to determine the future direction, he was able to analyze whether the intelligence was correct to a large extent. In the gap that he could not distinguish, he hoped that the intelligence officer's evaluation could make up for these.

Dong Feng turned a few more pages and said: "We believe that whether it is railway transportation or pipeline transportation, it is a favorable condition for CNPC. They may prefer such a choice."

"Since that's the case, prepare to have a live understanding. The Information Bureau sends a few people and the group sends a few more people." Su Cheng took out the list selected yesterday.

Field inspections are also to collect information nearby. Whether it is military or commercial intelligence, 95% comes from public collection, 4% comes from semi-public information, and only less than 1% are classified information. Pearl Harbor during World War II and Greenspan during World War II have proved this.

But whether it is public or non-public information, it is always beneficial to be in the local area.

Sucheng placed the evaluation information and list in a folder and did not hand it over to Dong Feng.

Dong Feng nodded with a slight regret. He directly reported to Sucheng that employees with this qualification can theoretically be the vice president of Dahua Group or the president of the branch. However, Chinese private enterprises have always had various relationships, and as a Chinese entrepreneur, Sucheng is no exception. He cannot strictly control the number of reports like a foreign CEO. This will reduce the workload, but will weaken the control over the company. On the other hand, the group's senior management position is always scarce. Increase the number of reports and reduce promotions is also a reward for old employees who cannot keep up with the development of the group.

Dong Feng hopes that his Information Bureau can gain more power, just like many intelligence leaders in history. But Su Cheng is obviously not going to give him such great power.

In the afternoon of the same day, the first batch of dispatched personnel from Dahua Industry set out to Karamayi, Kazakhstan, Moscow and Azerbaijan respectively. Although the Soviet Union collapsed, Russia's influence in Central Asia is unquestionable. Moreover, the only oil pipelines in Central Asia are currently built in the Soviet era and all lead to Moscow. Whether or not new oil pipelines are built, these pipelines need to be understood.

After doing this, Su Cheng stopped and called Shu Lan to ask her to have a big meal.

This is also one of Sioux City's favorite outdoor activities.

The Chinese cities in the early 1990s were definitely a delicious world. Although the newly emerging big hotels were expensive and unbearable for wage earners, they did have many favorable conditions. Pesticides and fertilizers criticized by the Chinese people in the later generations were not serious in the early 1990s. If the chef was a little careful, he could find any pure ingredients, including pollution-free, catalytic-free, pollution-free vegetables, and three-year-old farm pigs. If you have spare money, it is a bit difficult to eat white veins, and it is still easy to get some bear's paws.

As usual, they took the car driven by Gu Hongjun and first went to Jiaotong University to pick up Shu Lan, and then the two arrived at the Yingge Hotel with a chat and laughter.

By the way, Su Cheng would also sigh: It’s great to have no traffic jams.

No wonder government officials in later generations tried hard to limit numbers and travel restrictions. When did official cars be one of the few private cars in China, the happiness of free cars was indeed unparalleled.

When they arrived at a familiar position, Su Cheng and Shu Lan were sitting in the same row, stretching their necks to prepare to order food, but they saw Su Zhenguo's secretary coming over with a smile.

"The old man has just arrived, I want to see you." The secretary smiled happily.
