super energy power

In the editorial department of "Yangcheng Evening News", there was chaos.

The books, newspapers and periodicals that are so cherished on weekdays are scattered on the floor at this time.A few young interns were like ants, crawling on their backs to search for them, jotting down key points from time to time, rushing back to their desks, and handing them over to the writers.

The text reporter was so busy that he didn't even bother to say "thank you", his eyes were fixed on the stamp on the table, and he had to keep writing, for fear that he wouldn't be able to catch up with the time.

In the center of the editorial office, the distance between the red line representing the deadline and the minute hand is only a quarter of the dial.

"There is still an hour and minutes, so hurry up." The deputy editor-in-chief poofed his head, roaring like a lion.

A painful moan of "Oh yeah" came from below.

The deputy editor-in-chief jumped onto the table and cheered up his morale: "I know, everyone is tired! And everyone is hungry. But, we don't have time to eat. The morning papers are time-sensitive all the time, but Dahua The news that the industry won the bid for the oil field in the Middle East was released at 8 o'clock in the morning, and today's newspaper in his shed is already on the shelves, now, it's up to our evening newspaper!"

He waved his arms like he was riding a horse, dancing rhythmically on the table, and shouted: "The master shed for typesetting is ready, and the bicycle team is also ready. The deadline is 2:3 p.m., and it will be printed at 4:[-] p.m. , it can be delivered to newspaper outlets at [-] o’clock. Zampeng Yangcheng Evening News will be the first newspaper to comprehensively report on Chinese companies winning bids for foreign oil fields, what an honor it is!”

An editor quietly ran to his lap and asked in a low voice, "Is the introduction to the Middle East war we wrote before usable now?"

"Change! I want a new report." The editor-in-chief of Lion Head shouted in a high tone: "Whether it is suffering or not, think about the [-] Red Army. If Dahua Industrial can take down foreign oil fields, how much sweat will it take? How much persistence, how much hard work? Everyone thinks that the search for information is tiring, can it be exhausted by the comrades of Dahua Industry? We must report the deeds of his shed as soon as possible, and let the people of the whole country understand the achievements of Dahua Industry. How many great deeds have been accomplished!"

He was as impassioned as a speech, shouting: "Napoleon is a sleeping lion in China. Now, the awake lion has opened his eyes and let out his first roar. Moreover, this roar is from a private company. I believe that the future The news yearbook will list the "Yangcheng Evening News" on January 1. Please hold on and think about it until the task is completed, and the newspaper office will invite everyone to drink sugar water!"

I have been preparing day and night for a copy reporter and editorial studio without sleep, but I will continue to persevere.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the first batch of "Yangcheng Evening News" met with the citizens.

Also published are "Beijing Evening News", "Chongbo Evening News" and other well-known newspapers.It's just that the investment is different, and everyone's reports on the Middle East, especially the UAE, are also different.

What's more special is that government workers who used to like a cup of tea in the morning and a newspaper in the morning naturally walked out of the office building and took the initiative to buy a newspaper or even a few newspapers at the newsstand and canteen.

Naturally, Su Zhenguo didn't need to buy newspapers, but the director of the office who figured out what he was thinking had already sent someone to wait at the newsstand. As long as a newspaper was delivered, it would take less than 5 minutes for someone to run and deliver it to Su Zhenguo's office.

The contents of the first few newspapers were relatively reliable. At worst, they used reports from Xinhua News Agency or made some personnel introductions.

However, the newspapers delivered around 6 o'clock gradually became unreliable.

By the time Director Zhao discovered the problem, the newspapers had already arrived at Su Zhenguo's office.Just as he was feeling uneasy, a burst of hearty laughter suddenly came from the suite.

The director was stunned for a moment, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at the second page of the "Xiangye Evening News" that was sent to the back. Books of more than an hour, and mainly focused on petroleum technology, once told people that to be a member of China Petroleum, the motherland will donate oil...

Director Zhao smiled, made himself a cup of tea, and thought to himself: The brilliant Peking University talent has become an idler.The same is true for the current newspapers, what is there to worry about, you can’t write properly after collecting information.

"Click."

The door hinge of the suite slammed lightly, Director Zhao subconsciously straightened his back, raised his chin slightly, and waited for a second before looking in the direction of the door.All the people in the office all made one movement.

Su Zhenguo stepped out of the office in two big strides, collected several new newspapers, and ordered: "Xiao Zhao, go and find out about the situation of Dahua Industry and the Ministry of Energy. Don't disturb others."

"Yes"

"What is Su Cheng doing?"

Xiao Zhao hurriedly said: "I haven't heard any definite news. There is a time difference of several hours between us and the United Arab Emirates. They are still celebrating over there."

"Well, call the embassy and ask about it." Su Zhenguo left the office and went for a walk, which was his daily routine.

The secretary immediately picked up the microphone, and after inquiring about the embassy, ​​he asked the car class to prepare the car and go to the Ministry of Energy.

The Ministry of Petroleum was transformed into the China National Petroleum Corporation by the reform of the ministries and commissions in 1, and administrative responsibilities were handed over to the newly established Ministry of Energy.Although the master is weak and the minister is strong, the execution ability is almost zero.But for central cadres like Director Zhao, it is a formal channel to go to the Ministry of Energy first.

When he arrived at the ministry, Secretary Zhao immediately felt a completely different atmosphere.

If other departments are looking for novelty and excitement, the Department of Energy is simply miserable.Of the dozens of cadres passing by, none of them had a smile on their faces, and none of them spoke to each other.It feels more like a prison.

Yes, like a prisoner awaiting verdict.

Only then did Secretary Zhao realize how much the Ministry of Energy was hit by Dahua Industrial's winning the bid.

The Chinese delegation composed of three stones was led by the Ministry of Energy, directed by the Ministry of Energy, and ordered by the Ministry of Energy to withdraw.

If Dahua Industrial also fails in the bidding, mistakes and dirty water can be poured on Dahua Industrial, and the non-existent "infighting and internal friction" alone can drive it into the abyss of eternal doom.

However, Dahua Industrial actually won the bid!

Sanshi, who didn't even get the right to bid, suddenly became a negative model and a national negative model...

All the dirty water and mistakes, all fell on him.

Even looking for the director gave him a headache, thinking: the department-level cadres who are in charge of the work of the delegation must not be qualified to carry the bag. It seems that someone is going to be unlucky.

With that in mind, he knocked on Minister Guo's office door.

Door open.

A head popped out and asked softly, "Hi, what's the matter?"

"I'm Zhao Zijun from the Su Office. If you need anything, I'm looking for Minister Guo."

"Hello, Director Zhao." The other party recognized him immediately, and said embarrassedly: "Please wait a moment. Have a cup of tea first."

Director Zhao often went to the ministries and commissions to convey information, but he didn't have much time to wait.However, he was not in a hurry and took the opportunity to observe the newspapers in the secretary's room.

More than half of them are newly bought evening papers, which are different details from usual. In this way, Secretary Zhao has a bottom line in his mind.

"Snapped".

Hearing the sound of a glass being thrown from the door, Minister Guo's secretary smiled awkwardly.

There was a faint scolding sound from inside.Secretary Zhao thought in surprise: As Minister Guo, at least the department-level cadres are being scolded.At such a high position, even the superiors and subordinates have to save face, forcing Minister Guo to yell at him, I am afraid that he is in a hurry.In this way, the main person in charge appointed by the Ministry of Energy is Minister Guo. Minister Guo's secretary lowered his head, and in desperation, made an internal call to the inside, saying: "Secretary Zhao from the Soviet Union has arrived."

The scolding inside stopped.

After a while, the two palace members bowed their heads in disgrace, and left the office in a hurry, without the face to say hello.Secretary Zhao recalled that both of them were officials of the oil system, they were over years old, and they were trained like grandchildren. It is indeed better to pretend not to know each other.He tidied up his mood, entered the door and said with a smile: "Minister Guo, Mr. Su wants to know about the situation, about Dahua Industrial's overseas bidding."

"Well, I also just received the news, from the newspaper." Minister Guo blushed, unable to tell whether he was ashamed or angry.He thought for a while, and said roughly: "Dahua Industrial has a small force, and it is most appropriate to develop a joint venture with CNOOC. In my opinion, discuss an appropriate ratio with Dahua Industrial. CNOOC can contribute more funds. Send more people to carry out a big battle against the Seitan oil field."

"Oh." Secretary Zhao just listened.

Minister Guo had to ask: "What does Mr. Su mean?"

"Mr. Su just understands the situation and has not made a decision." I understand, and if there is any progress, I will contact you at any time. "

"Is there no progress now?"

"I haven't contacted Sioux City yet." When Minister Guo said this, he was still a little ashamed.

"I called the embassy before, but he didn't see Sioux City."

Minister Guo turned his head and said in surprise: "Dahua Industrial's total assets are only tens of millions of yuan, and all the patents are in his name. If you don't answer the phone and don't go to the embassy now, will you go to some country without coming back?" gone."

"This is unlikely." Secretary Zhao was a little amused, and had to say: "The most is to hide and not see idlers." Minister Guo, who was classified as an idler, laughed twice, knowing that he was in a hurry.He really wanted Su Cheng to defect and not come back. At that time, all kinds of flattery in the newspapers would become a joke, and he could criticize the unruly behavior of private companies with a prophetic tone...

Of course, all of this is just like his fantasy. After a light test, Minister Guo smiled and said: "I will let the Petroleum Corporation continue to contact him. Su Cheng is a cadre from the Petroleum Corporation. Big and capable, I reckon that he doesn't really want to see me."

Minister Guo actually doesn't like the big oil company, so he pretended to be helpless and said: "This is the first project to go out of our country's oil industry. It is very important. However, some leading cadres, selfish, Disregarding the interests of the country and the people is really heartbreaking..."

"Minister Guo, Dahua Industrial, which won the bid, must be a private company." Director Zhao smiled lightly.

"Private companies are also Chinese companies. They accept the guidance of the Ministry of Energy of China..." Minister Guo complied, and only then did he realize that the other party was Director Zhao of the Su Office. .

Minister Guo quickly remedied: "Overall, Comrade Sioux City is still good. His current problems mainly focus on breaking away from the organization and the masses. If the embassy and ministries lose his news, it will be misleading. What are you doing hiding in my shed, and my shed is not a man-eating wolf, right?" Director Zhao nodded and smiled secretly, you wolf, you are probably going to be hung up.If no one can be found, who should we turn to for the oil conference.

Minister Guo also knew this, and said with a wry smile: "Comrade Su Cheng's selfishness is a bit more serious, otherwise, I will organize a few large companies in the shed to develop the Setan Oilfield together, which will be beneficial to both parties..."

Director Zhao smiled without saying a word.

Minister Guo had no choice but to continue: "We don't necessarily want the shares of Setan Oilfield, nor are we pursuing the benefits of overseas oilfields, but purely to help domestic companies... Now, the main problem is that Sioux City doesn't contact me. This kind of problem is more serious…”

"Bang bang." His secretary knocked lightly on the door.

"What's going on?" Minister Guo sullenly said, "I'm done with something."

"It's news about Su Cheng." The secretary was instructed to notify him as soon as possible.

He didn't get in touch with Su Cheng just now, but he got in touch now. Minister Guo's old face, which had just turned pale, was turning red again, and asked with a snort, "Where did he go?"

"It is said that I got on the plane and the destination is Shan, Dongdong, and Ying."

"Shengli Oilfield?" Minister Guo's eyes froze.Director Zhao asked, "Is there no flight from the UAE to Baying?"

Minister Guo understood instantly, and hurriedly said: "Yes, he is going to transfer from the capital, go, stop him."

"It is said that it is a private jet, and the Civil Aviation Administration has approved it." In the era when private cars were rare, his secretary did not understand the concept of private jets very well, so he could only say: "It seems that they don't pass through Beijing."

Minister Guo was stunned for a moment, and said decisively: "In this case, let's go to Shengli Oil Field. He avoids us, we can't avoid him, Director Zhao..." Director Zhao thought for a while, then smiled: "You and I—— Get up and see if he's a deserter or something!"

Such strong ridicule, Minister Guo probably could smell it with his nose in the past.But he was too nervous now, so he just nodded, put on his clothes and went out.

The importance of oil in the Middle East is not understood by anyone who works in energy.The reason why Minister Guo asked the Chinese delegation to withdraw was a prudent way to protect himself when there was no hope in sight.Now, he is in a dilemma because of this decision, and the only solution is to take over the Setan Oilfield from Sioux City.Director Zhao has been immersed in officialdom for decades, how can he fail to see Minister Guo's little girl.But he didn't get authorization, so he just followed, ready to report to his boss at any time.hours later.

Minister Guo, Director Zhao and Lin Yonggui who were waiting at the airport saw Sioux City who got off the plane.He was wearing a windbreaker, and there were only a few people following him, without pause or sentimentality, with a warm smile hiding his determined eyes.

Looking at this outstanding young man, Director Zhao, who had a protective mentality, suddenly realized that a person who can walk out of the international oil battlefield where corpses are strewn all over the place needs his own protection.Those Arab predators who cannibalize people without spitting out their bones, and those international oil companies who rely on arms trade and politics to survive, how can they have a fuel-efficient lamp.In comparison, Minister Guo, who stomped his feet to keep warm, was simply an insignificant person.

For some reason, Director Zhao looked at the smiling Sioux City, and he thought of Chen Yi's "Mei Ling III": I went to Quantai to recruit the old department, and killed Yan Luo with a hundred thousand banners. ...! .
