Fang Mingyuan sighed slightly. These people may have thought of this matter too simply. Do you really think that Russia is like China, where laws can be changed with a government order? "Minister Ding, okay, even if

It is possible to use this method to make the oil pipeline pass outside the Tonka National Park, thereby avoiding the restrictions of relevant Russian laws! But have you ever thought about how much time this will take? How much cooperation is required from the Russian government and parliament? We need

How many people and interest groups need to be convinced? When will this plan be approved by Russia?"

Ding Yi was a little surprised. From Fang Mingyuan's tone, it seemed that time was very tight! But the problem is that China's current demand for Russian crude oil has not yet reached an urgent level. The reason why it actively promotes this project is largely due to

, just for long-term preparation, to diversify China's crude oil imports as much as possible, so as to avoid being choked by the Americans in the future! The Russians, on the other hand, are much more interested in this project than China!

"Master Fang, what do you mean..." Ding Yi frowned and said.

"Minister Ding, I can tell you responsibly that the Japanese government is also very concerned about this project. Many people in the Japanese government have proposed to persuade the Russian government to build the project from Angarsk to Baikalsk to Tenda.

The oil pipeline plan from Khabarovsk to the Nakhodka Port in Primorye! In this way, Japan can also share Russian crude oil!" Fang Mingyuan said solemnly, "This voice has not yet formed in the Japanese government.

It has enough influence, but I think in the future, with the recovery of the international crude oil market, the Japanese government will definitely formally propose it to the Russian government!"

"What?" Ding Yi was startled and almost knocked over the tea cup at hand! What Fang Mingyuan said is very important!

"Japan will propose a new oil pipeline plan. And this plan is likely to be supported by South Korea and the United States!" Fang Mingyuan said slowly and clearly!

Ding Yi's face finally changed a little. He imagined the oil pipeline route mentioned by Fang Mingyuan in his mind. Only then did he truly realize why Fang Mingyuan behaved like this! To be honest, he didn't doubt Fang Mingyuan's words at all.

.In East Asia, Japan and South Korea, two countries that do not produce much domestic oil, are definitely more enthusiastic about oil than China!

"Minister Ding, how do you think things will develop if Japan intervenes?" Fang Mingyuan's voice was not high, but Ding Yi felt that his question was like a sharp-edged dagger, unstoppable!

"Anyway, if I were the president of Russia, at that time, I would not consider environmental protection, ecological issues, political and geo-security factors. From the perspective of economic security alone, I would not hesitate to veto the Security Line!" and

Fang Mingyuan, who did not wait for his answer, continued, "Only one reason is enough. Because doing so is in Russia's best interests!"

"Why?" Ding Yi couldn't help blurting out.

"Because our predecessors have told us a long time ago. Don't put all your eggs in one basket!" Fang Mingyuan said.

Ding Yi looked at Fang Mingyuan dumbfounded, and after a long while he nodded slowly but firmly and said: "That's right. In this case, whether it is the An-Qin Line or the An-An Line, Russia is putting all its eggs in the air.

In this basket of China!"

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia's economy has been in decline over the years. From the original second largest economic power in the world, it has fallen to a point where it cannot even enter the top ten! The national finance is riddled with holes.

, overwhelmed by heavy domestic and foreign debts. And oil foreign exchange revenue is undoubtedly an important pillar of the Russian government's fiscal revenue! It can be said that the ups and downs of crude oil prices in the international oil market are the barometer of the Russian economy and government finances!

If Russia's oil pipeline only leads to China, then it will undoubtedly tie an important pillar of its economic development to China's chariot!

In this way, although Russia has gained a stable and large buyer of crude oil, it also faces great risks!

For example, when international oil prices fluctuate violently, especially when they rise, Russia, as an oil exporter, should be able to get a lot of huge profits. However, after building an oil pipeline that only leads to China, Russia may enjoy

There is no such huge profit, because China may use various means to suppress Russian oil prices. And Russia will not be able to transport the oil out because the oil pipeline only leads to China. If it does not sell to China, it will not be able to transport it with its railway capacity.

An embarrassing situation. Moreover, Russia is also worried that once the oil price is too high, China may have to reduce its imports from Russia because it cannot afford the high oil price, resulting in unsaleable Russian crude oil!

The Russian government's worries are not unfounded. Russia has had quite unpleasant memories before when it comes to oil and gas pipelines that only connect to one country. During the Soviet period, Russia laid oil pipelines to a country in Eastern Europe and a country in West Asia.

, but later both countries, citing the sluggish domestic economy and declining energy demand, put forward demands that either Russia lower crude oil export prices or they stop oil imports, which greatly annoyed the Russian government.

Moreover, China is currently in the process of reform and opening up. Although the economy is developing rapidly, the Russian government still cannot 100% believe that there will be no possibility of major political, economic, and social crises in China during this period. After all, the Soviet Union has

It is not impossible that some kind of crisis will occur in China. Once this happens, China's economy will suffer a heavy setback, and the oil exports of the Russian oil pipeline may come to a standstill. At this time, China's crisis is

In Russia's crisis, Russia's oil finance will be dragged into the water by China, which is obviously not in Russia's national interest.

All in all, in short, if we only build oil pipelines leading to China, as long as something happens to China's "basket", all the "golden oil eggs" in Siberia, Russia, will turn into rotten eggs! Such a risk, if

If given a choice, the Russian government will naturally not agree!

If we switch to the plan of building an oil pipeline from Angarsk via Baikalsk, Tenda, and Khabarovsk to the Nakhodka Port in Primorye, Russia will be able to move forward and retreat more freely. Through the Nakhodka Port, Russian Petroleum

It can be sold to Japan, South Korea, the United States, China and other countries by sea. There is no need to worry about the impact of problems in a certain oil market on its oil sales! Although the cost of the oil pipeline will be much higher, but

The buyer will change from one Chinese buyer to multiple buyers from China, Japan, South Korea, the United States, etc. This will undoubtedly put Russia in the best position to have both sides.

In fact, Fang Mingyuan has always had doubts. In his previous life, Yukosky Petroleum Company took the initiative to propose the construction of an oil pipeline to China. Is this an attempt to attract attention? Because the Russian government's financial capacity at the time simply could not afford to build this pipeline.

The oil pipeline across Siberia, so they threw out the An'an Line to lure other oil consuming countries in East Asia to compete in order to maximize their profits!

So when Japan jumped out, waving banknotes and clamoring to help Russia build the Annan Line, the Russian government was forced to "give up" the Annan Line after a "struggle"!

The more Ding Yi thought about it, the more frightened he became. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Fang Mingyuan’s reminder was not without purpose! And once the wealthy Japan intervenes, it may use favorable conditions that China cannot offer to induce the polar bear to change its mind!

"The international crude oil market price will not remain low. Moreover, compared with the Middle East, which is now like a powder keg, for the Japanese, the relatively stable political situation and the nearby Russian oil are also a good choice. You

Are you saying that?" Fang Mingyuan said in a longer voice.

Ding Yi has been convinced by Fang Mingyuan at this time, because Ding Yi knows very well that in terms of domestic understanding of Japan, Fang Mingyuan is definitely one of the most well-informed people, not only because he has a

The title of Honorary National of Japan is due to his close connection with Japan's economic circles! So it is not surprising to know some news about the Japanese government's future trends in advance! Moreover, Ding Yi believes even more.

Logically, Fang Mingyuan's theory can be said to be reasonable, connected and completely in line with the development trend of today's international situation!

If... what Fang Mingyuan said is true... Ding Yi couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart!

First of all, if Japan really intervenes and the An'an Line becomes the Anna Line, then the share of Russian oil that can be distributed to China will naturally be reduced a lot when there is a lot of monks and a shortage of food. The significance of this oil pipeline to China's energy security

It will also be significantly reduced. It feels like the Chinese government has been busy for several years, but it is making wedding dresses for Japan and South Korea. This will undoubtedly make the people in the country feel dissatisfied after learning about it.

Secondly, the original exclusive oil pipeline has become the Annan Line that is equally shared by everyone. This is undoubtedly a failure of the Ministry of Energy, and I, who have been in charge of this project, will naturally become the main person responsible. In that case, I will

In the remaining days, it will be difficult to become a ministerial-level cadre! Maybe he will be relegated to the sidelines and relegated to the second line! For Ding Yi, who is only just over fifty, this is

Of course it is unacceptable!

Thirdly, if this is the final result, what would the Fang family, who had worked so hard to create the current situation, think? What would they do?

Although compared with the Chinese government, the Fang family is just a stronger ant, but compared with Ding Yi, maybe he can not care about the Fang family's opinions when he is in office, but what about when he retires?

?Where are his nephews?

Ding Yi's heart finally became confused!
