The voices in the conference hall were conveyed one after another and quickly arrived on Aliyev's desk.

Although as president, the most important thing in Azerbaijan today is oil field bidding, and it is not an exaggeration to compare it to the basis of national rejuvenation. Aliyev not only needs funds for national construction, but also expects to obtain political, economic, diplomatic and even military support.

There are more oil-producing countries in the world. Some, such as Saudi Arabia, have really become regional powers, and their own construction is getting better and better; some, such as Nigeria, economic sluggish, gap between the rich and the poor, social security declines, and domestic politics are at stake; some, such as Norway, economic recovery, social excitement, and national strength is strengthened...

Azerbaijan has a poor foundation and is not as good as the Oslo countries, but it is expected to become a rich country in regions like Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

Therefore, Aliyev has made many transactions with oil companies from various countries. He hopes that through this time, he can directly trade with more countries, just like OPEC's early Saudi Arabia and Venezuela.

Fairness and justice have never been pursued by politicians. They just hope to seize political benefits in this way.

Now, so many companies are clamoring to announce bids on the spot, Aliyev immediately instructed the Ministry of Petroleum to speed up the bid opening.

The rules for this bid were originally concluded one day later by Azerbaijan. After a night of brewing, the chances of undercover operations naturally increased greatly. Originally, oil bidding was a breeding ground for undercover operations, and oil companies also agreed to this form. However, oil companies are not good kids who are content with poverty and are willing to abide by the rules. They agreed to this form because they have confidence in themselves or are really unable to change the status quo.

The practices of Sucheng and Dahua Industrial were beyond the norm and immediately made many companies feel threatened. In this way, shortening the time for dark-box operations was the natural choice for many companies.

Little Aliyev is the nominal person in charge of this bid. After receiving a call from Aliyev, he announced with a clear understanding: "Since everyone has some requirements, we will work overtime and complete it quickly. If you have time, you can wait here."

If the same content is said in another way, it will naturally be easier to accept than changing the rules.

Of course, the time spent may be one night, but it is more transparent.

Representatives from various companies all chose to wait on site, so they were naturally watching the bidding.

Thakbar brought all the staff currently owned by the Azerbaijan Ministry of Petroleum and formed more than ten groups to read the bids in a scattered manner.

Because there was not enough space, they simply smashed a long wall to expose the room inside and closed the other doors.

As a result, the conference hall became a model of half of the company's representatives and half of the oil department staff.

The representatives had colorful hair and eyes, and sat and chatted casually. The staff had ordinary black hair and yellow skin, and were busy flying.

Now, it is also time for the oil ministry officials to be busy.

Shigeru Nishioka quietly came to the front row of Sucheng and sat upside down. He asked with a smile: "Chairman Sucheng, Dahua has made sufficient preparations."

Su Cheng was also exhausted, relaxed his face and leaned on the chair. He smiled and said, "I saw the results and realized whether our preparations were sufficient."

"Why did Chairman Sucheng send someone to send bids from outside? Bids are so important. Shouldn't they be completed in advance and carry them with you?"

"It's really important, so I found out that I didn't bring it, so I quickly sent someone to deliver it. Fortunately, I was in a hurry." Su Cheng made up a story casually, which was a reasonable explanation.

As for whether it is true or not, Dahua Industry has no need to prove it.

Shigeru Nishioka could not find a reason to refute. He and Ryutaro Watanabe had been discussing for a long time, but they did not expect the reason and came to test Sucheng.

Seeing that Su Cheng was hiding his attitude, Shigeru Nishioka was even more suspicious and said, "Dahua Industrial is bound to win the oil fields in Azerbaijan. I noticed that Spain's Repsol Company and Petrobras have all bid for it. The bid submitted by Director Su in front is the oil block that Dahua independently bids? No. 6 oil block?"

Su Cheng smiled unanimously.

Shigeru Nishioka touched his forehead and said, "It will be difficult to think about it. What is the mystery of the No. 6 oil field that makes Dahua Industrial so troublesome?"

It was only after the bid was submitted that representatives of other companies were more sure that Dahua Industrial's pursuit of No. 6 oil field. Before this, no one could be sure whether it was Dahua Industrial's trick. In fact, even now, Shigeru Nishioka was not 100% sure that the bid submitted by Dahua Industrial was related to No. 6 oil field. Since no detailed exploration of the 11 oil fields was carried out, except Sucheng, everyone was more inclined to obtain more oil fields or oil field shares. In the comparison of one oil field and ten oil fields, Dahua Industrial's desperate bets are unimaginable to other companies.

Because this is not a normal bidding behavior, other companies have no way to start their guesses and judgments.

With Shigeru Nishioka's inquiry, Su Cheng smiled relaxedly and said, "Dahua Industrial is very interested in the oil fields in Azerbaijan and is bound to be unable to say it. With so many company bids, it is hard to say the final result. Didn't the company group formed by inpex have been prepared for a long time?"

"Ha... I've been preparing for a long time, but I don't know what the result is." Nishioka Shigeru continued to use Chinese idiom: "I'm worried about gains and losses."

If Japanese elites want to go to a good school with high deviation values, they have to go through the "Chinese Character" exam from an early age. The synonyms and antonyms of Chinese characters are almost a compulsory course for the improvement of primary schools, and idioms are the source of pain for children who want to take the college entrance examination. Compared with the requirements of domestic English education, Japanese students have stricter Chinese requirements and better results.

Seeing Shigeru Nishioka's accurate idiom usage, Su Cheng clicked his chin and gave him an interested look.

Shigeru Nishioka laughed a little loudly and said, "I worry about gains and losses, I am worried about the failure of the bidding, and the bidding ratio and amount are too high. Well... I mainly worry about the high proportion. If it can be 0.2 to 0.5 percentage points higher than the second place, that is the ideal, otherwise the board of directors will say that it is not prepared enough. Anyway, 0.5 percentage points are worth hundreds of millions of dollars, but if you cannot know the bidding prices and proportions of other companies in advance, relying on judgment alone, it will be too difficult."

"Yes."

"Yes?"

"It's very difficult." Sucheng agreed.

"Although I say that, I still seem to be very sure of Mr. Su." Shigeru Nishioka still meant temptation.

At the same time, there are many people around. If Dahua bids for one of the 11 oil fields independently, it will be equivalent to getting nearly one-tenth of the oil fields released by Azerbaijan this time. There are hundreds of representatives of companies present, and hundreds of companies participating in the bidding for the Azerbaijan oil fields. Whether Dahua will win one, there are many curious people.

Su Cheng curled his lips and said, "Worry about gains and losses."

Shigeru Nishioka smiled and said, "Dahua also hopes that the bid amount can be 0.2 to 0.5 percentage points higher than the second place."

"Of course." Su Cheng admitted.

"How can I do it?" Shigeru Nishioka looked at Sue Cheng's eyes.

Su Cheng smiled and said in Chinese in Japanese tone: "Yes. How can we do it?"

Shigeru Nishioka racked his brains for this and said while thinking: "I think there is only one possibility, but the more I think it is the more I feel it is impossible. Because I can't know the bidding prices and sharing of other companies in advance, I have to make many bids and adapt to the situation. In 3 days, if 10 bids can be made, I can divide the bidding from 55% to 60% at an interval of 0.5 percentage points? However, it seems that the time is too short to make 10 bids in 3 days."

Su Cheng raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything. Of course, he wouldn't tell Shigeru Nishioka that more than 600 people from Dahua Industrial have invested in the bidding process. When they only made the bid for No. 6 oil blocks, they made as many as 70 copies. So it was not a 0.5 percentage point interval, but a 0.1 percentage point interval.

For this reason, the members of the Dahua bidding group were also exhausted and half dead. During three days, they slept for less than 10 hours.

Shigeru Nishioka could not understand this crazy behavior, and soon misunderstood the correct conclusion and said, "Dahua won't get the bid in advance, right? If the government made the bid in advance..."

"The process of bidding was discussed with other institutions, and I can guarantee it." Saqbar walked down from above, sat on the side, and smiled and said, "The Japanese Mitsui Bank participated in the bidding discussion. All the contents of the agreed loan repayment relationship were written by Mitsui Bank. Many of the contents required to be filled were also what they asked. If you ask Mitsui Bank, you can know that we did not finally determine the specific content of the bid until a few hours before issuing the bid..."

"It's about the sharing of oil fields. We must first return the terms of the bank group. Nowadays, banks are becoming more and more stringent." A representative from some company took the opportunity to shout.

For small and medium-sized oil companies, banks and bank groups are indeed annoying existences, because the huge investment in oil development and the long front often puts participating banks under tremendous pressure and demands huge profits. Large oil companies with abundant funds often do not need too many loans for too long, while small and medium-sized oil companies need to pay a lot in order to obtain long-term huge loans.

Thakbar laughed and said, "Don't it be said that banks are vampires?"

Everyone's topic quickly turned to condemning the bank.

Su Cheng did not participate in their chat, so he leaned on the chair with his eyes closed and resting. When the bid results were announced, it was time for a lot of talk. At that time, the representatives of the company who did not win the bid would come over like a tide.

However, they can't get what they can't bid for, and they don't want to get it in dry language.

Sucheng has always believed in practicality.

And language is the most impractical in this kind of occasion.

...

ps: The bidding should have ended today, but I can't hold on anymore...

I really want to have a holiday... Although it seems like it's on holiday every day, it's not a real holiday after all...

Maybe I can get back to my state after taking a vacation?

In fantasy...
