As for Gu Kun's special trip to China this time, he actually wanted to ask CNOOC to further launch satellites in terms of bragging about reserves. He Lan was very surprised at first:
"Lanzhou has announced to the outside world that it has 3 billion barrels of crude oil reserves. Isn't that high enough? What are you trying to do, little Gu? No matter how high you blow up the oil field reserves, we all know it.
In the future, if you plan to introduce third-party foreign shareholders to compete for business with Huahai, I believe it will not end well, and it will be easy to get involved. If you do not introduce third-party foreign shareholders, there is no point in bragging. Huahai
When Oil takes a proportional shareholding, it will only pay based on actual reserves.”
Gu Kun shook his head: "Of course I don't want to get even one more penny from Huahai Oil. In fact, as long as they cooperate with me in fraud, I can give them more benefits in terms of consulting fees and exploration fees. As for the specific operation, I
I feel that as long as their technicians are willing to cooperate with perjury without conscience, other business matters will be easy to operate. There can also be yin and yang contracts between countries, and they won't cheat you more money."
Hearing Gu Kun speak so sincerely, He Lan also calmed down a little. She frowned and thought for a while, then asked hesitantly: "Then you are just trying to gain a false reputation? I heard you mention just now that you are not satisfied with Lan Fang's per capita
Reserves only exceed those of Kuwait…
Forget it, I won’t ask you about your motives, I’ll make a call for you and ask Mr. Yang from Huahai Oil to come have a drink with you, and you can chat in person.”
Mr. Yang from Huahai Oil had a private deal with Gu Kun half a year ago, but later the Lanfang exploration project got on track and the Lanfang people got money from China Construction Bank by virtue of reserve mortgages. Mr. Yang had other big projects to be busy with.
, so he returned to China and took charge.
This time Gu Kun came to offer a treasure. If possible, he wanted to bring Mr. Yang here directly, but there was no way. He was in single-line contact with the people at COSCO, so he had to borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha again.
Fortunately, everyone was in Hujiang. After a phone call, Mr. Yang came over in less than an hour and took it seriously.
He Lan had someone remove the remaining wine and food in advance, and quickly rearranged the arrangement to avoid being rude.
For such a major international project cooperation, every negotiation, even in private, must not lose dignity. A mere tens of thousands of yuan for entertainment and food is nothing.
After Mr. Yang arrived, He Lan politely recounted Gu Kun's request. Mr. Yang was also very curious at first.
He has been working in CNOOC's overseas business department since 1982. In 16 years, he has never seen such a request from a foreigner.
At this moment, Gu Kun did not hide any more. He analyzed openly: "You should know that the current proven figure is 2.2 to 2.5 billion, and the previous publicity was 3 billion barrels. We originally had more than 90,000 barrels in Lanfang.
There are nearly 100,000 nationalities in the population.
When the financial crisis first came last year, I used the reason "because there has never been a commercial insurance company in Lanzhou" to do good deeds by chance and sponsored some old, weak, sick and disabled people to buy high-cost pension/insurance from Malaysian commercial insurance companies.
Arrange for home ownership and immigration. Therefore, the current population of Lan Fang is 70,000, which by chance has been reduced by more than 20,000."
When Gu Kun mentioned this point, his words were very cautious. Even if he was chatting behind closed doors with his own people, he did not reveal the slightest intention of "I have already planned to reduce the nationality population in Lanfang."
It seems that everything is because of his compassion, good deeds are rewarded, and in order to help the widowed and lonely, he turned the old, weak, sick and disabled who had no ability to make a living into foreign investment immigrants, so that they could rely on them in their old age.
In fact, if it weren't for the most extreme situation like Lanzhou, no other country in the world would have to go to such lengths to reduce its population in order to rank first in some per capita indicators.
In the eyes of other rulers, population is a tax source, not a burden for you to provide welfare, and rulers do not need to be so benevolent.
Therefore, even at this moment, Mr. Yang and He Lan could only sigh that Gu Kun was the chosen one, and did not think that he had premeditated it.
Gu Kun observed the words and did not see any doubts from the other party, so he continued: "The nominal reserves are 3 billion barrels, and the average per capita reserve is 70,000 people, and each person is 43,000 barrels.
The population of Kuwait is 2.3 million. After the crazy plundering and war destruction in the past few years, their crude oil reserves are still 97 billion. After conversion, the per capita is almost the same as ours. But their population is more than 30 times that of ours, and their reserves are also the same.
It is more than 30 times ours. Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible for Lan Fang to use a dazzling publicity sign."
Mr. Yang didn’t take it seriously: “It’s the same as Kuwait, or even slightly more than Kuwait. That’s amazing. Saudi Arabia and Iraq, Venezuela’s per capita population is far inferior to yours – Saudi Arabia’s oil is less than three times that of Kuwait, and Iraq’s is only one of Kuwait’s.
Point five times, but both Saudi Arabia and Iraq have a population of 20 million, which is exactly ten times that of Kuwait."
Gu Kun analyzed seriously:
"But Bahrain only has 700,000 people, but its highest reserves in history are 42 billion barrels! After many years of development, there are still more than 30 billion left. Their population is exactly 10 times that of Lanzhou, and their per capita has exceeded Lanzhou.
Qatar's population is close to 1 million, but its total reserves are even more exaggerated, probably close to 70 billion. In addition, Qatar only started oil and gas development after independence in the 1970s, and even less has been dug out. There are still more than 60 billion left, and their per capita population is also equal to that of the Netherlands.
More than 1.5 times.
I have calculated that the country’s publicized nominal reserves must be boasted to at least 5 billion barrels to ensure that it exceeds Bahrain and Qatar. If it is boasted to 7 to 8 billion barrels, it will be completely stable and there will never be a challenger.”
"But bragging can only be done for a while. When it is actually mined in the future, sooner or later it will lead to gangs. If a lie is known to many people, it will become a huge system project and it is impossible to hide it!" Mr. Yang had to remind him.
.
Gu Kun: "But if I can deceive you for a few years, such as five years, or a little longer, I will be satisfied. What I want is just that in the first few years of the rise of Internet media, the Lanfang Islands occupied the world's first per capita oil reserve
The two figures, the world's largest GDP per capita, are enough. I really can't hide it in the future, and the data is a bit wrong, so I just need to admit a small reduction in a low-key manner."
Mr. Yang and He Lan were stunned at the same time, and then asked in unison: "What's the use of that? I won't be back in a few years."
Gu Kun gave a ferocious smile: "No, since I am calculating on my own, I will strictly control Lanfang's naturalization threshold and ensure that Lanfang's nationality population will hardly grow. All those who come to Lanfang to participate in the construction, I can give
They share the dividends, but I will definitely make Lanfang’s nationality as precious as second only to Monaco and the Vatican.
As for those Middle Eastern countries, their reproduction speed is very fast, and they are not as restrained as us Chinese. In five years, or at most ten years, those Middle Eastern countries that have a little money and have children randomly will turn their per capita indicators into pulp.
of."
A country like Kuwait, which has been considered relatively moderate in the above three examples, still has a terrifying annual population growth rate of just over 4%, which can double a country's population in 17 years.
Qatar, on the other hand, has completely demonstrated the nature of the nouveau riche. In the second year after the Iraq War broke out and oil prices rose, Qataris multiplied like crazy. In 2005, the population growth rate reached a terrifying 20%! In one year, it went from 100
Ten thousand rose to 1.2 million! (It takes about a year to get pregnant, so Iraq was beaten in 2003, breeding in Qatar started in 2004, and the skyrocketing price started in 2005)
If a person has no long-term worries, he must have immediate worries. Those countries in the Middle East cannot be expected to be as calculating as the highly intelligent Chinese. These indicators of Gu Kun were calculated carefully with the intelligence of the Chinese, so it is only natural that he deserves it.
.
He has relied on falsifying data to survive the past few years. Even after 2003, even if he is found to be falsifying, the per capita oil reserves and GDP will definitely exceed that of Pakistan after population growth.
It definitely surpasses Dubai as a city.
In order to achieve all this, the laws and regulations related to the nationality of Lanzhou are destined to be the strictest. For example, both parents are required to be from Lanzhou and have been in Lanzhou from conception to birth before the child can be registered with Lanzhou.
.Otherwise, they will be kicked out and considered foreigners.
It's not that Gu Kun doesn't pay attention to the productivity brought by population, but the productivity of tens of thousands of people. No matter how elite these people are, they are not as valuable as the sign showing off the world's highest per capita wealth and bring greater benefits.
Moreover, he is confident that all propaganda on the Chinese Internet will be based on his statistical caliber. He would rather give money to Ma Feng and Zhang Chaoyang to block any sensationalist and rhythmic v-person who dares to act blindly.
Anyway, the early Chinese Internet world was still relatively weak, especially in the cold winter years. Gu Kun had already invested in an angel round for Ma Ventures, and he had a slight friendship with Zhang Chaoyang. He could still control the criticism for at least seven years.
(Historically, the Internet winter ended in 2004).
"I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to show off your wealth in business. Alas, is this what you call Internet thinking?" After listening to Gu Kun's data analysis, Mr. Yang couldn't help but sigh that he couldn't understand another new world, and he couldn't help but analyze quantitatively.
,
"Even if Lanfang's oil field is 2.5 billion barrels, based on the production-reserve ratio of the 1970s and 1980s, if 30 million barrels are dug a year, the oil price is US$40, and the pre-tax gross profit is US$25, that is a yearly revenue of US$1.2 billion and a gross profit of US$800 million.
.
You engage in the tourism industry for a gimmick, but the gross profit margin of the tourism industry is much lower than that of oil mining. You have a gross profit of at least 800 million yuan with a turnover of at least 2 billion yuan. Even if COSCO gives you the ability to attract Chinese tourists, one person can come to Lanfang once.
In a week or two, per capita consumption has reached the sky-high level of two thousand US dollars. Two billion is equivalent to at least one million people! How can there be one million rich people in China who can spend two thousand US dollars just for fun!"
Gu Kun didn't want to explain more: "If you can't understand it, don't understand it. Anyway, it's done. I appreciate you. For high-end tourists, traveling abroad is not just for fun. I bet it won't take a few years for China to
When people go abroad, they will mainly buy and snap up products with preferential tariffs. I will prepare supporting packages. I believe that a country known for its luxury will become a shopping mecca."
