reborn industrial empire

"No problem, even if you don't say anything, my cousin wants to see you!"

"Okay, that's settled, I'll wait for your call tomorrow."[]

Li Yifeng said goodbye and left, while Jin Xiaoqiang sat in the reception room, rubbed his head, and began to try his best to recall the whole story of the Yukos auction in his previous life.

In his previous life, he himself only learned about the whole story of Yukos from some news on the Internet. Of course, a lot of the news was official Chinese news, and a lot of the information was untrustworthy.

Now that I think back to the news that I knew in my previous life, it is really difficult to sort out the details and sort out the general context of the whole thing. But as long as you stick to one principle, you should be right, that is, to summarize the official sports news of the Chinese dynasty that day.

, if you understand it the other way round, that’s probably the truth of the matter.”

Jin Xiaoqiang was destined to be sleepless that night, and it took countless brain cells to roughly analyze what happened.

Early the next morning, he received a call from Li Yifeng, saying that he had arranged a meeting time for him. It would be noon today, and there was no need to go anywhere else, as long as he waited in the hotel.

At noon, a Mercedes-Benz S600, which is not too conspicuous in Russia, quietly drove into the underground parking garage of the Marriott Hotel where Jin Xiaoqiang was staying. Then two tall Russian-style bodyguards got out in front. After opening the car door,

Accompanied by Li Yifeng, a young, tall and handsome white man got out of the car.

The group of people did not take the public elevator outside.

Instead, he took the elevator that led directly to the presidential suite. As soon as he exited the elevator door, he faced a small living room in the presidential suite.

Jin Xiaoqiang, on the other hand, was already standing there smiling and waiting for them.

"Hello, nice to meet you, I am Jin Xiaoqiang."

Before Li Yifeng could introduce them, Jin Xiaoqiang came up to him with a smile and shook hands with the tall young man.

The person in front is indeed Adelka. At this time, he still looked extremely young. He was not as mature and steady as he would be when he appeared on TV a few years later.

The youthful atmosphere on his body is still very strong.

"Hello, Mr. Jin, I often hear my cousin mention you to me. It's my first honor to meet you today."

Adelka also shook hands with Jin Xiaoqiang politely, even though he was not very old.

But he is already an old bureaucrat. He has a strong sense of bureaucracy, but his attitude is very kind.

The two bodyguards were not too nervous when they arrived. After all, they had already agreed before coming that they were here to meet a friend, not an unknown target or a dangerous person.

Jin Xiaoqiang welcomed the group of them into the large living room behind him. The two bodyguards

However, he did not forget his responsibilities. He glanced around a few times vigilantly, and then relaxed his vigilance after making sure there was no threat here.

A few people sat down in the living room and chatted for a while to get to know each other. Then the special lunch ordered by Jin Xiaoqiang from the hotel was delivered.

Lafite in 1982 and caviar from Lake Baikal

In addition, there are grilled sturgeon and some truffles from France. They all look relatively simple, but they have been carefully prepared by the hotel chef. They look good and taste quite good.

While eating, the two bodyguards also quietly took a look around Jin Xiaoqiang's luxurious suite. After seeing that there were no threats or traps, they felt relieved.

After lunch, Jin Xiaoqiang invited Adelka and Li Yifeng to drink coffee together in his study room. The two of them happily agreed. The three of them arrived at the study room of Jin Xiaoqiang's suite. The two bodyguards were very sensible and knew that this was the place.

The big shots were about to start talking about business, so they did not follow them. Instead, they followed behind and helped them close the door. Then they sat on the sofa not far from the study and began to rest.

"Let's get straight to the point? Mr. Adelka, I want to know how many chances we have in this Yukos auction."

After the initial courtesy, Jin Xiaoqiang chose to go straight to the point. This was also his favorite way to discuss business after having been in contact with these foreigners many times during this period.

Adelka did not rush to answer Jin Xiaoqiang's question, but held the coffee cup in his hand and sat there with a smile. From time to time, he raised his head and glanced at Jin Xiaoqiang. After sipping half of the coffee in his hand,

Then he put down the coffee cup, took a deep breath, and said to Jin Xiaoqiang.

"Mysterkin, all the big guys are participating in this game. Since you want to join in and have fun, are you ready?"

Adelka once studied in the United States in his early years. He speaks English very well and his meaning is very clear. This game is a game for rich people. Since you want to play, you have to come up with enough chips to prove it.

You are eligible to participate in this game.

"Oh? So that's it? I wonder how big this plate is this time?"

Jin Xiaoqiang was not in a hurry to reveal his net worth. He wanted to find out from Adelka how much Putin planned to sell Yukos this time.

You must know that the current Yukos is not the Longkos of last year. His two fattest pieces have been swallowed up by Abramovich and Putin. In their eyes, the rest is just dregs. But in their eyes,

From the perspective of others, as long as they are not a rare commodity, they are still profitable.

Jin Xiaoqiang was so calm and composed, which Adelka admired very much. This young man really had his own way. If it had been another rich man of his age, hearing Adelka's slightly provocative question just now, I'm afraid

Now I can't hold my breath and show my strength by beating my chest.

This guy took his time and started to find out his own details.

This Yukos auction is of course a move by Putin to reward people based on their merits. You must know that many people have contributed a lot to help bring down Yukos this time.

You must know that before Putin touched Yukos, Yukos was a real giant in the Russian oil industry. The company was originally founded by Berezovsky, the godfather of Russia during the Yeltsin era.

It has quite deep human resources in the three circles of military, government and economy, otherwise this company would not have become the last oligarch to attack after Putin took office.

In order to overthrow this interest alliance, Putin united many people to achieve this.

Now that the two fattest pieces of Yukos' meat have been eaten, Yukos has a lot of legacy left, and of course this part must be taken out and rewarded based on merit.

In this operation, Adelka played a big role, and Putin certainly couldn’t treat him badly, so of course he wanted to take the lion’s share of the rest of Yukos.

The fact that Jin Xiaoqiang asked himself directly about the base price of Yukos was enough to show that he had already figured this out.

"Well, since Mr. Jin you are interested in participating in this game, and we are partners, let's get straight to the point. If Yukos is auctioned in bankruptcy this time, the base price must not be less than 3.4 billion US dollars, which is what he owes

The price of taxes and penalties. Of course I’m talking about what if!”

Adelka directly quoted the lowest price, and he also had something to say, while Jin Xiaoqiang on the opposite side began to think deeply.

3.4 billion US dollars is not a small amount. This amount is exactly the total amount of funds that Jin Xiaoqiang can currently use. Of course, it is not all. If he wants to invest more, it is not impossible, but in eggs

Putting it all in one basket, isn’t the risk a bit too great?

And when doing business with Lao Maozi, you have to be careful. What these guys like to do most is to be unreasonable. If they try to trick you, you will have no place to cry even if you want to.

．

3.4 billion U.S. dollars? This is not a small amount. You must know that the Yukos now is not the Yukos last year. The Sibneft Company has been taken back by Abu, and Yugansk has also been auctioned. The remaining pieces of Yukos

There doesn’t seem to be any big oil fields in the company, right?”

Jin Xiaoqiang said to Aldeka hesitantly, Aldeka was not an idiot, of course he knew what Jin Xiaoqiang was worried about.

He didn't waste any time. He took out a leather bag he carried with him from behind, then pulled out a thick kraft paper document bag, handed it to Jin Xiaoqiang, and said to him with a smile.

"I know Mr. Jin that you still have some doubts. You can take a look at this document first and then make a decision. It's not early today, so I'll leave first. After you think about it, Mr. Jin, you can contact me."

After saying that, without waiting for Jin Xiaoqiang to persuade him to stay, he stood up with a smile, said goodbye to Jin Xiaoqiang, and left the hotel where Jin Xiaoqiang was staying.

Li Yifeng also left the hotel with his cousin. After Jin Xiaoqiang said goodbye to Aldekar, he turned around and picked up the document bag.

The style of the document bag is very old. Looking at the degree of damage to the paper, you can tell that it is a document bag from many years ago. There is also a big red five-pointed star printed on the front of the document bag.

There are also symbols of an ax and a sickle in the middle. It seems that this should be a document bag from the former Soviet Union. It is written in large Russian characters, and Jin Xiaoqiang doesn't quite recognize it.

Fortunately, this time he did not come alone, but also brought a team. This team is from a third-party investigation company he established in Hong Kong. This time, he brought members who are familiar with the situation in Eastern Europe and Russia.

Xiaoqiang found a few people who knew Russian from them. He first marked all the papers in the document bag and shuffled them. Then he separated the people and gave them a few pieces each for translation.

Fortunately, these people's Russian skills are quite good, and they were able to translate these obscure Russian words in just one afternoon.

Before they could react, Jin Xiaoqiang gave these people instructions and sent them to various places around the world under various names to prevent them from learning the contents of the document after colluding with each other.

Lying in bed at night, looking at the document in his hand, Jin Xiaoqiang's heart was filled with excitement. It turned out that this document turned out to be an exploration report made during the former Soviet Union.

This exploration report was made by technical experts from the former Soviet Union in the late 1960s. It clearly introduced the results of the exploration in the Tohomsk oil field. In the proven exploitable areas, a total of 100 million tons of oil was discovered.

The reserves were around 1.5 billion tons, and the reserves that could not be mined at that time due to technical reasons were as high as 1.5 billion tons. The unproven recoverable reserves were estimated to be no less than 1.5 billion tons.

After so many years of exploitation, the current oil and gas reserves in the Tohomsk Oilfield are still as high as more than 600 million tons. And with the unexploited reserve reserves, wouldn't it be as high as more than 3.6 billion tons?

Do you want to know how many reserves the Daqing Oilfield has? It was measured in 2008. At that time, it was said that Daqing's controllable reserves were only 2.1 billion tons, which was only enough for 15 years of exploitation. The proven oil reserves were only 600 million tons.

But it is quite technically difficult to mine these 600 million tons."

In the last century, it was understandable that those reserve oil fields could not be exploited due to technical reasons, but this is the 21st century, and the current mining technology is not comparable to that of the last century.

If what is stated in this document is true, then the Tohomsk oil field now controlled by Yukos alone is definitely an undeveloped underground treasure, and it can definitely be worth the US$3.4 billion investment!

So what should we do now? Are we going to cooperate with this Aldeka?

Jin Xiaoqiang didn't sleep well that night, all he could think about was that large oil field."

The next day, Jin Xiaoqiang did not rush to contact Aldekar, but sent his team and gave them the task of finding out what the reserves of the Tohomsk oil field are."

Three days later, the team sent back a report. The proven oil reserves available for exploitation in the Tohomsk Oil Field were indeed 600 million tons, but the estimates of unexploited reserves varied widely.

Of course, the several teams sent out showed their own special abilities. Of course, their best way was to go to Tohomsk and bribe the exploration engineers and oil well workers there, and get the answers from their mouths.

Because the people who ask are different, the answers they get are also different, but these answers have one thing in common, that is, the unexploited and unannounced reserve oil reserves of this oil field must definitely exceed 1.5 billion tons."

Although the answers obtained can be said to be varied, Jin Xiaoqiang has already made a judgment in his heart. It seems that Aldeka did not lie when he gave him the qualifications. Indeed, there are huge potentials in the Tohomsk oil field.

The potential can be tapped.

The reason why Yukos did not vigorously exploit the crude oil in this oil field before was mainly because the oil fields controlled by Yugansk Company and Sibneft Company had shallower layers, were easier to develop, and had lower costs, so they did not vigorously develop this oil field.

oilfield.

Unexpectedly, this way, I got a huge advantage!
