Chapter 1968: Huayu Oil and Gas Pipeline

"Right, Feng, after two days, the oil and gas pipelines of our two countries were officially completed. I was also invited to attend the completion ceremony. Have you been invited?" Kirilenko thought of this and asked casually.
China and Russia have long been in talks to establish this long-term and stable cooperation. Huaxia has cooperated with many countries, oil and natural gas, which is the strategic energy channel of China.
China has a large population and is a major energy consumer. At present, China's oil and natural gas consumption growth rate, the world's leading, oil consumption rate, can be reflected in the growth of China's automobile.
In the past, this cooperation agreement was officially signed in 12 years. For a total of 20 years, 1,500 tons of oil and 38 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year. The cost of the pipeline is more than 60 billion euros.
Huaxia has also established oil and gas pipelines with Myanmar, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and other countries. It is also a strategic energy channel for China.
Including the transportation channel at sea, and cooperation with countries such as Africa and the Middle East to ensure domestic energy consumption.
It is also these strategic deployments that allow China to have sufficient energy use and reduce pollution of coal and other more serious energy sources. It also prohibits the burning of some traditional fuels such as wood and straw to protect the environment.
Many people say that China's oil is expensive, but they don't know how much it costs for oil.
Does Huaxia have an oil field? Have. Is the reserve rich? Not too good, but not bad, there are many explorations, but not mining, even shale oil, China also has abundant reserves and more mature technology.
However, China now learns from other countries, and its own energy is not mined, retained, and used for price regulation. If you have money now, then you will import it. When the price of import is too high, then you will mine some and force the other party to cut the price.
China is about to become the world's largest energy importer. Once China says it is not imported, then the other party must cut prices. Otherwise, the other party's energy cannot be sold, is it not reducing revenue?
Exporting powers can control product prices, as well as importing large countries, as long as they can afford to import.
This Sino-Russian oil and gas pipeline was actually promoted by Feng Yu and Kirilenko. In recent years, China's development has been fast, its income has grown rapidly year after year, and people's living standards have also increased substantially. The demand for energy has also increased.
Russia was rich in the period of the former Soviet Union, but later it was not poor bankruptcy. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia has never recovered its standard of living.
Russia’s pillar industries, industrial and mineral, rely on these to make money. What other countries can do real estate, finance or something, Russia can't play.
The land is sparsely populated and the house cannot be sold. People lack trust in political axe finance, and finance can't revitalize.
As far as technology is concerned, the former Soviet Union had the world's top scientists and engineers, but when the Soviet Union collapsed, most of them were dug away by foreign countries, and China did not even start.
Of course, because of the small butterfly of Kirilenko, Russia still left a lot of top talents, but Russia's development route is not much different from previous lives.
It is true that Russia is also working hard to revitalize agriculture and trade, but unfortunately the development is also very general. The place in Russia, although it is said that there is a lot of land, but the climate is not very good, too far north.
They are relying on the sea, but the routes are not very good. Fortunately, there are European railways, so that their transportation lines can have more choices.
It is said that the country is poor, you can not make such a good foundation on some basic welfare, use a period of time to precipitate accumulation, and slowly develop.
But Russia has never given up on this point, and welfare benefits are still aimed at the standards of developed countries, which makes Russia's finances often have a deficit.
In a country with such a strong industrial technology, minerals are the largest income. The real developed countries will not use such low-value-added raw materials as their main income. Even in the Middle East, they are also striving to develop the crude chemical industry. .
On the surface, Russia has cut down on military spending, but in fact it is still making huge investments, but they have invested a lot and can't make any money.
Now approaching the era of peace, the arms dealers in the country have all gone bankrupt, but the main cause of bankruptcy is the production of guns and weapons. Those who make planes, guides, and ships still have a lot of money.
In this respect, in fact, the island country and South Korea are doing the best in the world. Civil and military ~ use the combination, while improving the military ~ with technology, while popularizing in civilian use, earn a lot of profits.
Under this circumstance, Russia needs a long-term and stable cooperation order. It is just that China is a major importer of minerals, so it is a hit with China.
It’s just the cooperation between the two sides, and there have been many twists and turns. For example, if Huaxia says that you sell us oil and gas, then should this oil and gas pipeline be built by you?
Russia has said that you have to buy it. This should be invested by you. In Myanmar and other countries, aren't they all built?
Can Myanmar be the same as Russia? If Myanmar dares to swallow these pipes, China will let him spit out more. If Russia is a rogue, is it true that China will open war with Russia?
So at the end of the agreement, who is responsible for the construction. At this time, Russia said, we have no money, what to build?
Russia has money, but it is not enough. In the end, Feng Yu proposed a plan, which was also adopted by former Huaxia in cooperation with other countries to provide a low-interest loan.
The so-called low-interest loans are basically loans that can only be guaranteed. The interest is about the same as the depreciation caused by inflation, and it does not make money at all.
However, it is very cost-effective to be able to exchange the agreement to ensure the stability of China's energy needs.
In the future, China will cooperate with many countries in the Middle East and Africa to adopt such a scheme. Huaxia is not bad at present, and it is easy to borrow hundreds of millions of dollars at will.
This cooperation is not only the participation of Russian state-owned enterprises, but also the Polar Bear Mining Group. Moreover, the construction of pipelines in Russia is the participation of the Polar Bear Mining Group.
Therefore, Kirilenko was invited to attend the completion ceremony. Feng Yu, who said that this event was promoted, should also be invited. Moreover, Feng Yu is a major shareholder of the Polar Bear Mining Group. It is normal to attend this event.
However, Feng Yu told Kirilenko that he would not attend and had no interest in this matter. He just let this win-win situation come earlier, but according to Feng Yu's guess, if Russia does not cut public spending, then if Russia is sanctioned by Western countries, it will fall into the same economic recession as its predecessor.
"Chi brother, if you are interested, invest more in some food companies, you Russia, this area is too dependent on imports, you can do it, you can make a lot of money."
The reminder has already been reminded. As to whether Kirilenko understands, Feng Yu will not say much. Anyway, Russia is not his motherland.
