October 23rd.

The Dahua Industrial Press Conference was held as scheduled at Xiangshan Hotel.

Xiangshan Hotel is located in Xiangshan Park in the western suburbs of Beijing. It was designed and completed by I.M. Pei, the "last master of modern architecture". After it was put into use in 1982, it was a first-class conference center. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was the best conference center in China in the 1980s.

Su Xing arrived at the venue early and watched the reporters happily receive the room keys to rest. His eyes were filled with fire: It would be fine if the big newspapers didn't listen to the greetings, but even these small newspaper reporters were not obedient.

He actually knew that Su Dongyuan found a newspaper but could not find the young reporter below. These guys heard that they could stay in Xiangshan Hotel for one night, so they didn’t care what your leader said. The reports were still invisible, but the number of people was more than expected.

Because of its complete and advanced facilities and extremely oriental characteristics, Xiangshan Hotel has become the first choice for international conferences held in China in the 1980s. It has to host hundreds of international conferences every year. Not only is the room difficult to set, but the room rate is also amazingly expensive.

Su Xing didn't know what Dahua Industrial used, but he knew that perhaps Dahua could only produce such a company in China today.

Those who are richer than Dahua are all state-owned enterprises, and there are always people who care about spending money, not to mention those who are poorer than Dahua. For a press conference and renting a hotel, those private entrepreneurs refused to do so. Even Su Xing had never stayed in the Xiangshan hotel for a night. Seeing the reporters listing the white-collar keys, he curled his lips with disdain and jealousy.

The specific time of the press conference is set at 3 pm. This can be seen from the poster in the lobby, or ask the employees of Dahua Industrial next to you.

Some of the reporters who came first went to the room to rest. Some didn't want to stay in the room, so they just wandered around the hotel, or simply interviewed Dahua Industrial's hospitality staff.

Su Xing listened to the occasionally "click" sound of the camera, and deep worries gradually arose in his heart. These reporters still have to stay in the hotel for one night, that is to say, in addition to the press conference, they have to stay for another half of the day to rest in the room arranged by Dahua Industrial... Who can guarantee that they will not get the information they should not get?

"Conspiracy! You can't let the reporters be at his mercy." Su Xing surged with strong belief and walked to the front desk of the lobby and said, "Open a room for me."

"Sorry. There are no standard room and business suite, now only executive suites are left." The waiter at Xiangshan Hotel smiled sweetly.

"Then let's have an executive suite." Su Xing was determined to stay in the hotel.

“Okay. An executive suite is it?”

"yes."

"How many nights can I ask?"

"Just one night."

"Okay. The room fee is 400 yuan, plus a deposit of 100 yuan, a total of 500 yuan." The waiter still smiled sweetly and found the key.

"Hmm, huh?" Su Xing took out his wallet and suddenly realized the situation. He shouted: "500 yuan a night?"

"The deposit will be refunded to you after checking out." The waiter looked at him pitifully and said, "The room fee is 400 yuan."

"400 yuan a night!"

"Because it's an executive suite..." The waiter shrank his neck and his smile was a little stiff.

Su Xing's whole face was hard.

Another reporter came to check in next to him, and he was a reporter from the Workers' Daily.

The other party easily took the keys and said "thank you" to the employees of Dahua Industrial. Su Xing seemed to be stimulated and took out all the money in his wallet. Finally, he brought more money out of his house, which was enough to pay the room fee.

The waiter with a sweet smile filled out the form, handed him the key with both hands, and instructed: "The check-out time is 12 noon tomorrow."

Su Xingxin was bleeding and spent five months of his salary in one night. It was almost all his savings since he worked. But there was no place to find a way to make up for this money.

3 pm.

The reception began as scheduled.

Su Xing sneaked into the venue and found a corner seat. He sat down with a depressed look. With a pound of pork worth only 2 yuan and a high-end wedding banquet worth only 100 yuan, Su Xing, who had just spent a huge amount of accommodation, was wondering how to make up for the 400 yuan.

"You can fill in 20 more meals at the office... You can buy some office supplies to reimburse some invoices... You also get the following units to take a walk... Forget it, I'd better ask my mother to subsidize..." Su Xing thought about it and slowly calmed down.

He raised his head and saw Su Cheng sitting in the middle of the front with a smile on his face. He said, "Dear reporters, welcome to Dahua Industrial's press conference..."

The reporters who received the benefits applauded kindly.

Su Xing thought: I want to see what you can say.

Sitting on the stage, Sucheng, Zhengrong, was as professional as the CEO of the company. After a few greetings, he smiled and said, "We informed one by one in order. First, it was the development of Dahua Industrial in the Setan area. This is the second time that an Asian company has entered the Middle East Petroleum Circle and the first time that China has entered the Middle East Petroleum Circle. We successfully bid for and exploited the Setan Oilfield, which has a vast area and is one of the largest oilfields among the shallow sea oil fields of the Persian Gulf. We use the shallow sea oil drilling platform developed by our Dahua Industrial itself for drilling and mining. What you see now is the Hua105 drilling platform, which is also the first second-generation oil drilling platform we built..."

After hearing this, Yang Ming immediately turned on the TV.

The video tape flashed for a few seconds and saw the Hua 105 drilling platform from near to far.

Yang Ming was once the office director of Shengli Machinery Factory, and Huali turned into the office director of Dahua Industrial. He opened his mouth and cooperated with his big wind-catching ears, which was also an eye-catching sign.

However, no one focused on his face today.

The reporters were staring at the Hua105 offshore drilling platform on TV, the steel giant dozens of meters high, with a tonnage larger than China's own warships, not to mention the size, and that height alone is amazing.

Chinese journalists, especially Beijing reporters, rarely pay attention to the ocean. At this moment, I was shocked when I looked at the images I asked someone to take.

After a while, the image of Hua105 was switched to Hua106, and gradually entered the drilling platform. It had a larger volume and more modern equipment, and endless pipelines twisted in all directions, making the reporter who was dizzy when reading the text.

"It's almost as good as a heavy industrial base." A reporter whispered.

Yang Ming was next to him and shouted: "Ocean drilling platform is like moving a heavy industrial factory to the sea. Don't think it weighs 7,500 tons, but when an oil well is finished, it can also be moved to other areas to continue working. An offshore drilling platform has a lifespan of up to 30 years. It can not only produce oil for China, but also rent it to foreigners to earn foreign exchange. The daily rent of an oil drilling platform can exceed US$100,000..."

"100,000 US dollars per day?" The direct amount can attract people's attention, which also attracts the attention of reporters.

Sucheng gave a positive answer, saying: "If the oil rigs we produce are rented to other oil companies in the Middle East, the rent will cost at least $120,000 per day."

"Did Dahua Industrial make the drilling platform?"

Su Cheng said with great certainty: "Developed and designed by Dahua Industrial and engineering by COSCO Shipping. It can be said that Hua 106, as a third generation drilling platform, has reached the world's advanced level. The third Hua 107 ship produced by COSCO Shipping, will be the second after its finalization, and it is expected to be deployed in the Setan Oilfield in January next year. By then, the production of the Setan Oilfield will reach 80,000 barrels per day, which is 4 million tons per year. By domestic standards, it is also a super-large oilfield."

The annual output of 4 million tons is double the output during the peak period of Chengdao Oilfield. At the end of 1989, the instant output of Setan Oilfield was four times that of Chengdao Oilfield. Although the output of both sides will increase, the Setan Oilfield will increase more.

The reporters who knew it were all amazed. Someone asked, "How high is the production of the Setan Oilfield expected?"

“By the mid-1990, we expect to mine four to six offshore wells, increasing daily output to 100,000 barrels per day, and 6 million tons per year. There is also potentially more.”

While Su Cheng was speaking, the scene of oil drilling out of Hua 106 on the same day was also being played on TV.

Although many people don’t know how to exploit offshore oil, they can understand the importance of this gushing oil gushing around dozens of Chinese workers and laughing around the black industrial flow, and watching foreign engineers rush into the black oil rain and celebrate with each other, they can understand the importance of this gushing oil.

In an instant, Su Xing was also a little moved, but in an instant.

The higher Su Cheng's achievements, the greater the threat to him. Su Xing was not willing to flow the Su family's resources to another illegitimate child, and no one could do it...

Not long after the video was played, Sucheng talked about Dahua Industrial's investment and said: "Our Dahua Industrial is preparing to divide the profit into three parts. One is the reproduction of the enterprise, the second is the cash reserve, and the third is the investment and purchase of factories."

"Do you have a goal?" Financial reporter took the lead in asking.

"Yes, we have actually acquired two foreign ship companies. We originally wanted to acquire the Tianjin Petroleum Machinery General Plant, but now we have partially given up."

"Why?"

Su Xing stared at the stage, and he could not pin his hopes on all newspapers to listen to the greetings. Su Xing had made up his mind that if Su Cheng talked about the loan from the Jinshi General Factory, he would make a big fuss in the venue.

But Su Cheng did not talk about the loan. He looked at the audience and smiled: "The main reason is that the problem of the triangular debt of the Tianjin Petroleum Corporation is very serious. In other words, from the book, the Tianjin Shi General Factory seems to be a little profitable. In fact, since the receivables cannot be collected, their profits are only reflected in the book. The company itself has very little cash, but it has actually fallen into an insolvency situation."

Triangle bonds were the first economic problem that China encountered in the 1990s. Before Xinhua News Agency issued the State Council resolution in April 1990, it was already the core issue of China's economy. Compared with the dark stories of illegal loans, triangle bonds are open and upright problems.

Just look at the large flashes displayed by the reporters, you will know how much they care about this issue.

In 1989, the concern of journalists was the concern of society.
