Chapter 536 Huge Advance Payment
Hovchenko's so-called "sincerity" of course refers to the size of the contract.
He does not believe that his country can come up with a plan that surpasses Sino-Russian oil and gas cooperation!
Just kidding, the total amount of the contract signed by Wang Yegang exceeded 3000 billion US dollars. Even if the small book has money, are they willing to spend so much?
Hovchenko is skeptical.
Wang Ye just smiled and didn't say anything.
Because he still doesn't know what kind of plan Xiaobenzi is planning and what kind of cooperation plan he plans to come up with.
After dinner, things settled down.
On behalf of the board of directors, Hovchenko formally authorized Wangye to deal with the issue of pipeline laying with full authority.
Ask people to give, ask money to give money!
As long as the matter can be done, it is fine, after all, this matter is related to the top priority of the future of the Yukos Group!
…………
The next day, April 5th.
As soon as Wang Ye arrived at his office in the Duma Building in the morning, he called Gobrev.
He didn't go around in circles, and asked straight to the point: "Uncle Gebrev, I want to ask, is Koizumi here to talk about oil and gas cooperation?"
Ordinarily, he shouldn't inquire about such things that haven't been announced yet.
But with the relationship between Wang Ye and Gobrev, the chain must not be lost at such a critical moment.
Isn't the network reflected in this kind of place?
On the other end of the phone, Gobrev pondered for a moment, and told Wang Yedao frankly:
"Well, it did.
I also participated in yesterday's meeting, but it is too specific to tell you now.
What I can tell you is that they want to participate in your cooperation plan with China to form a tripartite cooperation!
Of course, now it is not a question of who will build the pipeline, it is a matter of re-planning the route! "
Although he was mentally prepared, Wang Ye still frowned.
Triple cooperation?
This is not the same as he originally imagined!
I thought that the small book came here to disrupt the Sino-Russian cooperation and turn it into a Japanese-Russian cooperation.
But I didn't expect that what they proposed now turned out to be a tripartite cooperation between China, Japan and Russia!
He opened his mouth and asked: "Then did they show any sincerity? Also, what do you mean by the Kung Palace?"
These two questions are more difficult to answer.
Gobrev hesitated for a long time, considering whether he should refuse to answer this question...
However, he finally told Wang Yedao: "Their sincerity is that they can come up with a huge sum of money to pay in advance as the cost of the pipeline construction. Mr. Puding's opinion is that all sincere cooperation plans are welcome, but specific issues, You need to discuss it in detail.”
Wang Ye asked two questions just now. First, Gobrev gave a clear answer.
That is to say, the sincerity of the small book is to pay first!
This is indeed quite sincere. After all, the construction of the pipeline alone costs nearly tens of billions of dollars...
Even for Yukos Group and Gazprom, that is a lot of pressure!
Now Xiaobenzi has offered to advance the funds without the need for Yukos and Gazprom to pay. This is of course a good thing.
However, things are certainly not that simple.
Since people have paid for it, there will definitely be demands.
As for what the requirements are, Gobrev has just said that it is to change the pipeline and build according to the small book!
As for Wang Ye's second question, that is, what is the Kremlin's attitude, Gobrev's answer was rather vague.
It's like saying nothing!
However, it may be that Puding really did not make a clear statement. Of course, sincere cooperation will be supported, but he did not make it clear who will judge this sincerity.
"Ten billion dollars? That's really a generous move..." Wang Ye said casually.
"Hehe, it's not that little! It's about 220 billion U.S. dollars for the construction of the pipeline. Because the pipeline plan they proposed is about twice as long as what you are proposing now! The cost will naturally soar. " Gobrev said with a smile.
More than 200 billion?
This number really shocked Wang Ye!
It's not that the amount is too large, but the meaning behind this amount!
What kind of pipeline does Xiaobenzi propose, it needs so much money!
Originally, it was already very far from Siberia to the northeast, but now it is equivalent to doubling the length? !
Is there such a distance from Siberia to the Far Eastern port of Nakhodka?
It doesn't seem that far away on the map, is there a deviation in my memory?
After all, Wang Ye is not a professional, and he only knows a rough idea, but he doesn't know how to plan the route and how to budget the cost...
"Are they serious? It's not right. They haven't talked to Yukos and Gazprom yet. How much oil and natural gas do they plan to purchase? Just spend so much money all at once to build pipelines?" Wang Ye was stunned. asked.
He always felt that something was wrong, it felt weird.
"Well, they didn't say how much crude oil and natural gas they will purchase. In addition, this advance payment is not given directly, it is considered a loan, and it can be deducted from the payment for crude oil and natural gas in the future." Gebrev is not too clear about the inside story. , he replied vaguely.
Wang Ye frowned even tighter.
But there was not much to ask from Gobrev, so he hung up the phone after thanking him.
…………
Sitting in the office and thinking for a while, Wang Ye called Alexie again.
"Brother Alexei, what are you up to? Have you heard of the tripartite oil and gas cooperation plan proposed by Koizumi yesterday?" Wang Ye asked.
He is now more familiar with Alexei and speaks very casually.
Apparently, Alexie was not as well-informed as he was. After hearing Wang Ye's question, Alexie paused for a moment before answering.
"Ah? No, I haven't received any notice. What kind of tripartite cooperation plan, what about the tripartite?"
Wang Ye briefly recounted the news he got from Gobrev.
After listening, Alexie was also stunned.
After a long while, he said: "I can probably guess the new route they proposed! It must be to the Far East port of Nakhodka. As for which oil field to start from, it is not sure. It may be further west. It is hard to say. Otherwise, it will not be used. So much pipeline construction costs!"
After an analysis by a professional named Alexie, Wang Ye was sure that the end of the pipeline was indeed the "Far East Port Nakhodka" in his memory.
After all, it is the closest to the home country, and it doesn't matter where the starting point is.
However, this incident bypassed Yukos Group and Gazprom, which made them a little upset.
Wang Ye and Alexie discussed it, and decided to split up and continue to inquire about the news.
After figuring out the true intentions of Xiaobenzi, consider the next step...
