Text Chapter 2078 The miserable Rosneft Company

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xiao Qi was not familiar with the capital, but when winter was approaching, Xiao Qi liked the dry climate.

    But northerners are just the opposite.

    The last time Song Jiejie came to Chengdu, she said that the warm and humid climate in Chengdu is very good, and the skin will not be dry and will be very moisturized. No wonder the girls in Chengdu have good skin.

    ¡°It¡¯s one thing to like the weather, but it¡¯s another thing to like whether you like to socialize.

    After Cao Zhichong, Kang Yuanjun also invited Xiao Qi to have a meal. This high-ranking official who was high-spirited in front of others was still as respectful in front of Xiao Qi as before.

    Because he has now worshiped Niu Ruzheng at the dock, and Xiao Qi not only helped him along the way, but was also a great benefactor for his promotion, and he was also regarded as a nephew by Niu Ruzheng. He would never dare to be arrogant when he succeeds.

    Apart from that, Xiao Qi didn¡¯t have any social activities.

    But just when Xiao Qi was about to return to Chengdu, Citibank CEO Wade suddenly called and said that Cherosenko, the chairman of Russia's Surgut Oil Company, was in the capital and wanted to talk to Xiao Qi.  Meet for dinner.

    As for why, Wade didn¡¯t make it clear.

    But Xiao Qi understood why.

    It should be that the Russians are unsteady.

    It¡¯s not that they can¡¯t afford to repay the $20 billion they borrowed from Xiao Qi, which makes them unstable.

    "Russians no longer have money, but the oil in the underground is basically a cost-free trade. It is sold cheaper. Compared with Russia's huge oil resources, it is just a drop in the bucket. 20 billion US dollars of oil can be easily repaid.

    Now when the world talks about oil resource countries, many people look at the Middle East, but Russia¡¯s resources are actually even more unimaginable.

    Let¡¯s look at the map. It stretches directly across the north of Eurasia. The Arctic Ocean and the North Pole are almost completely occupied by them. The oil resources in these places alone are countless.  It's just that Russia has never taken care of it - now they can't finish the oil exploration on land.

    But one thing is that Russia has a lot of oil, which can be used to squander it and sell it for money.

    But the problem is, if the price of oil continues to drop, to 30, or even 20 US dollars.  That makes people feel a little bit sore.

    Because the land area is so large, the domestic economic burden is under great pressure, and there are too many places where Lao Maozi spends money. No matter how their powerful person wants to develop, he will need a lot of money to pave the way.

    What is the biggest money-making project in Russia?

    Basically, it is the same as China ten years ago, that is, mineral resources, oil and gas and other energy resources, as well as wheat, grain, timber, etc.

    They are all the most basic ingredients!

    "These projects only earn hard-earned money. If the price of oil and natural gas had not been rising every year in recent years, Russia would have fallen into economic stagnation, and people's lives would have been under great pressure.

    Natural gas is a derivative of petroleum.  If the prices of oil and natural gas are successively lowered to the point where they are cheaper than cabbage, then where will Russia¡¯s expenditures for developing its economy, stabilizing its reputation, and strengthening its national defense come from?

    This is very dangerous!

    So during this period, the people who are most panicked are not the local tycoons in the Middle East, because they have a small population and basically do not consider war and other economic issues. The ones who are most panicked are the Russians.

    Xiao Qi received news some time ago that as early as when the oil price was still $50, Russian oil tycoons were running around in the Middle East, Europe and the United States, busy non-stop.

    Naturally, the reason for going to the Middle East is to coordinate oil production.

    The higher the oil production.  Then the price will become more volatile if production is directly reduced.  If the relationship between supply and demand changes, oil prices will rise immediately.

    Speaking of which, oil prices are closely related to each oil-producing country, and reducing production benefits everyone.

    But the problem is that if you reduce production, others may not necessarily reduce production.  Maybe after you reduce production, others will directly increase production, take away your share, and make more money.

    This is what Saudi Arabia was like in the 1990s, cutting production by millions of barrels a day.  As a result, countries such as Russia and Venezuela have benefited.

    Therefore, OPEC is determined not to cut production this time. Anyway, having money is better than having no money, and their huge expenditure cannot be exchanged for money without oil at all.

    It is useless to go to the Middle East, and it is useless to go to Europe and the United States to ask their financial institutions to rescue Russia and provide Russia with low-interest loans.

    ¡°Because it¡¯s obvious that oil prices are going to plummet, and you can¡¯t offer anything else as collateral, how can they dare to lend you money?

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?My wife is notoriously shameless.

    Now that the price of oil is about to break through the $40 mark, there are even fewer Russians to see.

    However, it was Cherosenko, the president of Surgut Company, and not the president of Rosneft who came to the capital, which shows that their expectations for Xiao Qi are still very low.

    "These old fools really can't turn their heads. In this world, Japan, the United States and China are currently the countries most short of oil. However, based on the population base, it is China that will use more and more oil resources.

    Judging from the relationship between oil-producing countries and major oil users, it is obvious that it will become increasingly difficult for China to obtain oil in the future. China and Russia just do not have good relations with the West and the Middle East, and they are close neighbors. Why?  Why can't we join hands?

    After putting down his thoughts, Xiao Qi came to a private club located in the embassy and consulate area.

    There are many such things as clubs in the capital, ranging from high to high schools and low levels, but this private club is very secretive and usually only greets people in its own circle.

    Entering the inconspicuous gate, Xiao Qi couldn't help but look at the two Russian golden cats standing inside to welcome guests, and then he put away his emotions and walked inside.

    ¡°The women of the fighting nation are hot enough, and have such a proud figure that would make countless women feel inferior.

    A middle-aged man accompanying Xiao Qi noticed Xiao Qi¡¯s eyes and nodded slightly, but without saying anything, he directly led Xiao Qi to a private room on the second floor.

    Along the way, the guests inside were almost all Slavic-looking, and there was no clutter like ordinary clubs. On the contrary, the place was very clean and elegant, and there was no mess.

    "Director Xiao, it's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't see you last time in New York. I only had contact with Miss Tang. I was wondering what kind of man could conquer Miss Tang. Now that I see it, you are indeed a talented person.  !" Cherosenko is a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a thick mustache, a tall figure, and a heroic appearance.

    "But flattering him as soon as he comes up shows that he is not that kind of reckless person.

    Thinking about it, how could a reckless man become the boss of Surgut Petroleum Company, one of Russia's five major energy group companies?

    "Chairman Cherosenko, your words are too polite." Xiao Qi smiled and sat down.

    "Call me Joseph!" Cherosenko was very familiar with him. "This is not the first time I have come to China, but I can see the changes in China every time! The capital has surpassed Moscow the population  More is better!¡±

    He would be emotional.

    Russia¡¯s area exceeds 10 million square kilometers, but its population is only 200 million, which is less than a fraction of China¡¯s. This is indeed very detrimental to the territory.

    Fortunately, Russians are not as pretentious as people in developed countries in Europe and the United States. Their ability and desire to have children are completely comparable to those of the Chinese, so the population base has not declined.

    Unlike countries like Britain, France, and Germany, where the population continues to decrease, it is unknown whether there will be pure people from these countries after 50 or 100 years.

    Xiao Qi has always felt that a large population is a burden in many cases, but on a more profound level, it is a very good thing.

    ??If China is like foreign countries, and its population gradually decreases, that would be an absolute mistake.

    The current population is pretty good.

    Let¡¯s ignore this matter for now.

    Xiao Qi smiled and said, "If Russia's population was as large as China's, your life would probably be even more difficult, right? This is all the fault of the United States and Europe! These bastards can't see that we are better than them!"

    In terms of attitudes towards the United States and Europe, China and Russia are consistent, but China and Russia themselves do not have a good relationship.

    Hearing this, Cherosenko agreed very much, "Those people are not good at all! Recently I went to them to borrow money to support us, but no one was willing to lend money!"

    "In this case, there are not many people who can lend you money." Xiao Qi smiled, "But you don't have to be anxious, I'm not in a hurry to ask you to pay back the money."

    "I would like to thank Director Xiao for lending us money last time. If it were replaced by a European and American company, we would definitely be forced to pay back the debt immediately, or exchange it with low-priced oil." Cherosenko sighed,  "Don't worry, we will definitely return it to you when the time is up!"

    He is flattering Xiao Qi and giving himself some money.

    ??According to their current operating conditions, it will be difficult to continue operating, let alone repaying the money.

    Who called this group of family members???What if you are deceived by the superficial situation and blindly buy machines, recruit people, and expand production?

    If we produce now, loan interest, machine depreciation, personnel salaries, fees paid to the state, etc. are all huge burdens.

    But if there is no production, it will be a net loss.

    What a dilemma!

    But no matter what, Xiao Qi is sure that when the loan period comes, they will definitely have no money to exchange.

    Why?

    It¡¯s very simple!

    They borrowed the money on January 10th this year.

    It is now the end of November, and by January 10, 2009, oil may still be at its lowest point. What can they give in return?  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
