Chapter 237 Disorganized Thoughts

Just when the oil spill in the Bohai Bay was exposed, Zeng Lingfeng discovered that the direction of the news on the Internet had changed a lot, and various reports quickly pointed the finger at ConocoPhillips China's major shareholder CNOOC.

Among these media reports, CNOOC has become the biggest obstacle to the delay in resolving the oil spill in the Bohai Bay. It is said that CNOOC owns 51% of ConocoPhillips' shares and will bear the main responsibility if it wants to compensate for this incident. ConocoPhillips is so arrogant because China's laws are not sound, China is a corrupt country, and CNOOC protects ConocoPhillips from behind.

These reports seem very reasonable and have won the recognition of many netizens, and have expressed strong dissatisfaction with the inaction of relevant government departments, and are even more resentful to state-owned enterprises. However, Zeng Lingfeng, who knows the inside story, understands that things cannot be viewed like this.

Take the China Aviation Defense Aerospace Company jointly established by Hanyu Mimeng Group and the government for example. The government holds up to 55% of the shares, and Hanyu Mimeng Group only holds 45% of the shares. However, the company's daily management is entirely responsible for Hanyu Mimeng Group. So, once the company has an accident, the only one who bears the responsibility is Hanyu Mimeng Group, because the government does not participate in the company's management, so naturally it will not bear the corresponding responsibility, and it is even more impossible to bear the losses.

Of course, if such a thing really happens, the government cannot be completely unresponsible. At least, their supervision functions have not been fully fulfilled. However, this and compensation are not compatible.

Similarly, in this Bohai Bay oil spill, CNOOC, as the largest shareholder of Penglai Oilfield, although CNOOC is not the "involved party" and does not have to bear compensation for economic losses, it cannot completely stay out of the matter. On the one hand, as far as the oil spill itself is concerned, CNOOC should "strengthen regulatory functions" and use its professional ability to restrain ConocoPhillips and balance responsibilities, and then safeguard its own interests; on the other hand, through a safety accident together, CNOOC should also reflect on the matching of its development goals and regulatory technical capabilities, reflect on its "international bidding, foreign investment" mining model, and better assume the important mission of central enterprises, especially in international cooperation.

However, the responsibility it should bear is nothing more than that, as some media said, 51% of the financial compensation.

If this is true, CNOOC will not give up ConocoPhillips China's daily operation and management authority, and ConocoPhillips China's managers should be Chinese, not American.

According to the logic of these media in the Bohai Bay oil spill accident, it is equivalent to a boss hiring a worker to work, and the worker's random operations cause a major accident. Because the boss has 100% of the equity, the boss bears 100% of the accident responsibility. Who makes him unfavorable for supervision?

There is no such reason!

However, how can ordinary people learn about such inside information? Of course, they believe in whatever they report on it.

In other words, many Chinese people have been deceived and fooled by some media with special backgrounds.

However, not many people have pointed out such things, because if someone really pointed out, maybe many people will jump out and say that you were brainwashed by a certain party, or you received a few cents of rewards, or something. In short, there are so many ways to despise you, and so many people despise you.

This is also impossible. In recent years, due to some serious phenomena, the image and status of the government and the party in the hearts of the people have dropped rapidly, and even reached the point where the sings are popular and the sings are popular.

In short, many Chinese people now have been confused. Although, in recent years, with China's international voice increasing and national pride has greatly improved, the internal and external problems faced by the country are still very serious, especially now in the information age, which makes it even more difficult for the country to change its image in the hearts of the people.

Not only are the people's thoughts on this matter, but they are also very confused about this matter at the top of the country.

In the following days, Zeng Lingfeng learned from Lao Zeng that the top government officials still had not reached a unified opinion on how to deal with the oil spill in the Bohai Bay. The main reason was that the Politburo members with the background of the Southern Department firmly opposed the country's compulsory measures. The reason was very simple. On the one hand, China had just experienced a fierce confrontation with the United States last year, and the relationship had just begun to ease. At this time, it should not touch the sensitive nerves of the Americans, so as not to trigger another fierce conflict between China and the United States. On the other hand, this is a commercial matter and should be resolved through commercial means, otherwise it would be too undemocratic. This will give Western countries more excuses to say that China is not democratic and is not conducive to China's democratization process.

Some members of the Politburo, mainly Zeng Chuipu, Zhou Peilin and Bo Dongyang, asked the government to take decisive measures in this incident, requiring ConocoPhillips to stop drilling and mining operations immediately, carry out pollution cleaning operations, and make clear requirements for ConocoPhillips to compensate.

However, the power of this group of people seems to be weaker.

Of course, the most people have not yet decided to make up the main point and are in a hesitant state. This also reflects the ambiguous attitude of the central high-level leaders.

Zeng Lingfeng was completely speechless after listening to his father's retelling.

However, Zeng Lingfeng did not want to participate in this matter. First, he had no reason to participate in it, which had nothing to do with the interests of Hanyu Mimeng Group; secondly, his father was not responsible for the energy and state-owned enterprises, but belonged to the other two deputy prime ministers of the State Council.

In this matter, even Lao Zeng does not have much say, otherwise, there will be suspicion of stretching out his hands. Even if Zeng Lingfeng extends his hands to this, it will have adverse effects on Lao Zeng.

Everyone is in charge of their own business, and it is very jealous of crossing the line.

However, this has caused certain losses to the interests of the country and has also caused considerable damage to the country's marine environment.

Of course, it is also because this has not reached the level of causing significant losses to national interests. It is just through this matter that we can see the face of some people clearly. Otherwise, Zeng Lingfeng would not care whether it crossed the boundary or not. Anyway, in the eyes of some people, Boss Zeng is just a fool and doesn't care about making these people's viewpoint go further.
