Chapter 387 Supply and Demand

When encountering such inconspicuous things, Liu Jinpeng will not easily draw conclusions before getting enough information. Although the modern world is sufficient, the situation of mixed fish with eyes is very common, so to find truly important information, you still need the perseverance of the big waves to wash away the sand. This aspect of intelligence collection and analysis has been done well, but Itie is not omnipotent, and some information needs to be raised by professionals.

Liu Jinpeng asked Wan Yichen. Anyway, he was right next to him, but this guy basically didn't know anything. Thinking about it, it would be strange if someone could get tricked into oil futures. If he knew the inside story, he wouldn't be cheated. Liu Jinpeng hadn't expected Wan Yichen to start, and now he had to ask others. Generally speaking, it's good to find Li Xiwen. His princess is well-informed and has enough levels to check confidential information. However, Liu Jinpeng still thinks it's better to talk to Yu Xia first.

Yu Xia didn't go out today. He was a business trip and was well prepared. He just ordered his men to buy some daily necessities. He had prepared food and drinks, so he didn't have to worry about it. When Liu Jinpeng looked for him, Wan Yichen wanted to follow him. Thinking about the fact that Mr. Wan was actually a partner with the royal family, Liu Jinpeng didn't object.

Liu Jinpeng and Mr. Yu had nothing to talk about, so they said straight to the point: "Your Majesty asked me to watch TV just now. Two oil refineries in Kusel, Egypt were destroyed. What's there to say here?"

Yu Xia has also watched TV. Before Liu Jinpeng came, he was analyzing the impact of this matter. Mr. Yu also had an intelligence team, but he didn't bring it out today, so the summary should be slower, of course there are some points. He spread his notebook and said solemnly: "Since your Majesty wants you to see, I definitely hope you will analyze it yourself, but I guess you don't have the accumulation in this area, so I'm overestimating myself this time."

Mr. Yu’s words are very clear. This time, we are all your considerate people. Next time, no one will help you. You have to prepare yourself. Liu Jinpeng naturally nodded and agreed. "I also think that Mr. Yu has been with His Majesty for a long time. You still understand Your Majesty’s thoughts best, so I am the first to come to you for advice."

This small flattery made Yu Xia smile. He was indeed the most convenient subordinate Li Jingwen used. However, others could say this but he couldn't say it, so he started talking about it: "When it comes to Egypt's Kusel Refinery, it is a construction project of Guoneng Group. Do you know about Guoneng Group?" Guoneng Group is the National Energy Group. This giant in the energy field relies on financial resources to capture wells around the world, and is a state-owned energy group that can compete with oil giants such as ExxonMobil.

However, the shortcomings of Guoneng Group are also very obvious. Because local oil fields are rare, compared with oil companies such as ExxonMobil, it has to spend more money to obtain foreign oil fields. Moreover, once there is price fluctuation, the local oil prices cannot provide large subsidies like the United States, because the domestic oil wells are too low. Siberia is said to have oil wells. However, those high-reserved oil wells are basically in the management area, not in the Siberian province of the Han Empire, which causes a little inconvenience.

The escrow area is the Russian territory taken over by the Han Empire in the Siberia region. This area has been requested to be returned to Russia by the bear. Although the empire can be dragged, it is difficult to develop oil fields with great fanfare. It is no problem to secretly produce oil, but since it cannot use a large number of transportation tools, the quantity naturally cannot be expected too much. No wonder some militants are clamoring to have another World War, and at that time, the escrow area should be turned into an occupied area.

Yu Xia is also an expert who is well aware of the policies and guidelines of the imperial government. He said: "Prime Minister Shen Jiatai means to delay the change, but Foreign Minister Han Shixi means to encourage local people to be self-governance. Then we support a pro-China government and then use energy assistance programs to exchange it. The new government can exchange it for various support from our empire." The Prime Minister is an old-fashioned person, of course he hopes to leave a positive image around the world, while Han Shixi is more radical. He has seen through the interests of only nude between countries.

Thinking of the rumors that Han Shixi is a popular candidate for the next prime minister, Liu Jinpeng can understand why Han Zi'ang has to be more cautious and cautious, and he must not make any trouble for him. However, Han Shixi's plan seems to have a loophole, that is, once the new government intends to cooperate with Russia, the empire will basically not have many restrictions. After all, the new government and Russia are of the same origin and the same species.

Liu Jinpeng is not very concerned about the oil energy system. He holds nuclear fusion technology in his hand and naturally does not pay much attention to oil, such an energy. In the future, oil will only become the initial stage of providing raw materials and no longer have its current decisive position. The emergence of nuclear fusion will definitely lead to this change, just as the appearance of Dyson's ball will make nuclear fusion dwarf.

But Yu Xia obviously didn't know this. He said: "Looking back, the blown up of the refinery built by Kusel, not only stimulated international oil prices, but also hit Egypt and our country in the face at once. Of course, Egypt lost the most points in this matter, and their energy plans will definitely be affected. However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the targets of the terrorist attack were carefully selected, not aimless."

Liu Jinpeng knew that no terrorist organization had announced responsibility for this matter. It seemed that everyone knew that this was a hot potato. Many times, people who did things did not call, but people who called did not do things. It was like a terrorist attack. Those who claimed to be responsible for this matter might not have the ability at all. What's more funny is that there were several other organizations that announced they were responsible for an attack almost at the same time. It was a big joke.

But Liu Jinpeng didn't want to know these causes and effects. He was just doubting Li Jingwen's motives. He traveled all the way to call him to watch TV. It was as strange as someone he had never known in the morning calling you to get up. Yu Xia was not very clear about this. Even if he had some guesses, he would not dare to say it. It was a taboo for his subordinates to speculate on his love, especially in front of Liu Jinpeng that this guy might not have to rely on the princess in the end, and President Yu would be in trouble.

When Liu Jinpeng came, he felt that Yu Xia should be able to analyze it, but when he left, he was still confused. Wan Yichen said nothing in it. After leaving, he also said a clear sentence: "President Yu is cautious, no wonder Your Majesty trusts him so much." In fact, Yu Xia's mouth is very tight and he will not say anything that shouldn't have said firmly.

Finally, I have to ask Li Xiwen. This girl is much more comfortable than Yu Xia. When she heard that her father called her lover to watch TV, she curled her lips and said, "It's mysterious. I think he just wants to catch him again." Don't say that, no matter how good his father is, Li Xiwen's guess is really absent. But in the end, why did Li Jingwen not mention it? His princess can't guess it no matter what.

"I don't allow you to leave!" Li Xiwen didn't care what her father was going to do. Anyway, she was about to have a birthday, so she was qualified to cheat. "It's not a big deal. So many elites in the country are just having fun. It's not a good idea to ask my man to do these things." For this birthday, Liu Jinpeng planned for at least half a month, and Li Xiwen thought he would definitely not want to leave either.

"Don't leave, don't worry." Liu Jinpeng thought to himself that Li Jingwen didn't even speak, so I naturally didn't have to flatter him. "I just think this taste is a bit weird. Does the confidential phone call cost money? Just to ask me to watch TV, it has nothing to do with me."

"Who said it has nothing to do with you," Li Xiwen is not a fool. She could see the trick here. "The price increase in oil will only force everyone to find alternative energy, so your plan for floating islands on the sea may be even smoother. No one in this world is a fool. If you lack anything, what is oil."

Your Highness is right. At least Li Jingwen now believes that the floating island plan on the sea is actually a visionary behavior. Oil and energy will only become more and more tense in the future, and the prices will gradually rise. But no one in this world is a real fool. Isn’t you just want to sell high prices because of monopoly? Is it okay if you don’t play with you? Developing new energy by yourself is on the one hand, and on the other hand, all kinds of strange energy projects will emerge one after another, but most of them are just making money. Like Liu Jinpeng, who raises funds and operates by himself, is the real material.

The floating island on the sea is still in the survey site stage. The number of coastal islands has exceeded 120, but there is no one more suitable. Although Li Xiwen is busy with birthday parties, she will still take time to pay attention to these progress. There are only more than 5,000 islands available in the continental shelf area, of which nearly half are not suitable for building docks and warehouses. In addition, if the climate and hydrology are not suitable, it is certain that ten of them will be excluded.

In fact, the main reason why the floating island on the sea did not receive strong support is that Liu Jinpeng reported no returns. Yes, he was unable to determine how much electricity it could produce. It was his selfish intentions. On the one hand, he hoped to secretly supply electricity to Titanium Asterisk, and on the other hand, he was worried that too high returns would attract more attention. Therefore, even if everyone knows that it is good, there are not many people who invest heavily in a project with huge investment and uncertain prospects.

However, once oil prices rise, there is no need to rise a lot. Even if the price of USD per barrel rises, speculators will immediately look at the floating island on the sea. Like other industries, oil and energy has a problem of existence or not, and there is also a problem of diversification. Floating islands on the sea cannot solve the problem of existence or not, but can ensure diversification. This is the bargaining chip. So Li Xiwen concluded that once the oil price rises sharply, energy companies will inevitably come to find floating islands on the sea, and even Guoneng may be tempted.

Liu Jinpeng was really grateful. He didn't see clearly for a while and almost raised the oil price a few more steps. In that case, the floating islands on the sea would be inseparable from the sight of these oil giants. This was inconsistent with his policy of developing in a dull way, so he could only keep his mind on oil prices in his heart. Anyway, it was all foreign money, so it was more important to implement the original plan.
