Chapter 217 Negotiation

The next day, Liang Yuan was taken to Hong Kong Island Ocean Park by twins to see Dabai. Dabai is the nickname the twins gave to the "cute" great white shark.

After hearing this nickname, Liang Yuan was in a bad mood. Looking at Dabai who was swinging in the aquarium, Liang Yuan could not meet the warm man Dabai in the comics. However, Liang Tuhao, whose memory was destroyed, could only silently complain.

Liang Yuan was taken away by a girl and destroyed his childhood. Qilianshan, Nuobijian and others started to contact Dongyang with the negotiation team.

Long before the negotiations began, in order to better accept it for overseas investors, Liang Yuan dismantled the entire Liwan project, including three wholly-owned subsidiaries of Liwan Energy, including China Gas, Liwan Resources and Liwan Power.

Among them, China Gas and Liwan Power are responsible for developing the global power and natural gas market. Liwan Resources is just a shell company that currently provides resources worth US$14 billion. In other words, Liwan Resources has only 80 million tons of complete natural gas fields codenamed 3-1 and 30 million tons of complete light oil fields codenamed 3-3. There is nothing else except resources.

Among the shares of Liwan Resources, a company called South Africa United Mineral Resources holds 50% of the shares, Liwan Energy holds 40% of the shares, and Republic of Offshore Oil Corporation holds 10% of the shares. Liwan Resources enjoys mineral mining rights in the Liwan area for 50 years. Once the period is reached, the Republic of Offshore Oil Corporation takes over all the interests of the Liwan project.

Generally speaking, in the marine blocks where the Republic opens the mining rights to the outside world, the Republic's Ocean Oil Corporation holds a shareholding ratio of more than 50%, with a cooperation period of 20-30 years. Once the cooperation period reaches the joint venture partner, all the rights and equipment of the project belong to the Ocean Oil Corporation.

Among the projects that the Republic's marine resources investment projects have only made an exception. Norway has a 80% stake in the near-shore oil fields at the Pearl River Estuary, and the cooperation period is as high as 50 years. Norway pays the price for this generous treatment to transfer marine technology to the Republic.

Yuanjia has made an exception in the Republic's marine resource policy in the Liwan project. One is that the Liwan Regional Republic has not yet explored it at this time, and I don't know if there is any resources there. The other is to repay the merits. The Republic used a relatively hidden way to donate the F14 fighter jets to everyone.

Of course, Liang Tuhao later cheated and threw out a 100 billion US dollar oil and gas field, which no one expected.

During this negotiation with the Dongyang Consortium, Wang Xinhua, the president of the project's shareholder, was dispatched. The valuation of Liwan Resources is US$14 billion, and it is 1.4 billion over the offshore oil company. Currently, the Republic's foreign exchange reserves are only a few dollars. For the Offshore Oil Corporation, it is not an exaggeration to pay attention to the Liwan project.

However, after the first negotiation, the two sides unanimously found that the differences between the two sides were too big.

One party is full of ulterior motives and wants to kill someone, while the other party tries to take the lead in the project into his own hands. The so-called negotiation only has the value of negotiation when the bottom line of both parties is similar. If the bottom line is too far different, there is no difference between talking or not talking.

"We can promise to provide a 20-year interest-free loan of at least 500 billion yen for the Liwan project. All you need to pay is to hand over the construction of the Liwan oil and gas field to Dongyang Company to complete it."

"The fact that Qi Jun mentioned that you plan to develop marine equipment, Mitsui Marine Development and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries can transfer technology or establish a joint venture with you."

"This cannot be changed when paying US dollars. We have a wholly-owned deep-sea marine equipment subsidiary in Norway. We do not intend to deal with the construction of oil and gas fields."

"Qi Jun, I really don't understand why your party is obsessed with US dollar settlement. Although our economy has encountered some difficulties, this does not affect the strong international trade status of the yen."

"Mitsui Marine Development and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries are both world's top equipment suppliers for deep-sea resource mining. Although Norway's related technologies are also very distinctive, I think the strong alliance will help Liwan oil and gas resources be put into use as soon as possible, and will not affect your ambition to enter the field of offshore equipment."

To be fair, Ono Dazhi made a lot of sense, but Liang Yuan planned to use the research and development of marine engineering equipment to deceive the big black fish in the north. How could the ignorant Japanese hit the head and disrupt the situation?

"Frankly speaking, Ono Jun's principled differences are mainly two points. You insist on paying yen, we insist on US dollar settlement, and you insist on providing interest-free yen loans in the hope of gaining technical dominance in the Liwan project. We do not want to be technically controlled by others. We do not consider accepting any other plan except for plan a."

“Given that the basic positions of our two sides are too different, I recommend a week off and hope that the beautiful Hong Kong Island view will help us break the differences and reach a consensus the next time we start negotiations.”

Realizing that there was no point in continuing the talk, Qilianshan decisively overturned the table and announced that the round of negotiations had completely failed.

The so-called plan a means that the first and second largest shareholders of Liwan Energy respectively transfer US$3.5-5.5 billion of Liwan Resources shares to the Dongyang Consortium respectively, making the Dongyang Consortium account for 25%-39% of the 3-1 and 3-3 projects.

Of course, if the Oriental Consortium is interested, it can also do the work of the Republic's Ocean Oil Corporation, and the project equity that can be obtained can reach 49%. Although it cannot be project control, it is of great significance to stabilize the energy source composition of Oriental and reduce energy costs.

Using the loan solution provided by Toyo can only solve the problem of developing this single project in the Liwan Resource Project. Although Qilianshan's plan has not been implemented, the response given by the Hong Kong stock market is crazy.

The next day, looking at the news that the Toyo Consortium Joint Group came to Hong Kong in a low-key manner and Liwan Energy's market value of 200 billion yuan was in sight. In addition, the Hong Kong Island Daily used six rare full pages to explain the current status of international natural gas supply, the current status of Toyo natural gas procurement, the significance of Liwan Energy to the Toyo energy field, and the natural gas seafreight costs. Then, the stock price of Liwan Energy directly exploded.

Before the acquisition by Liwan Energy, the share price of Zhonghua Gas was only HK$1. After the successful acquisition of Zhonghua Gas, the market responded positively, the stock price rose from HK$1 to HK$5. This price also reasonably reflects the Hong Kong financial market's expectations for Liwan Natural Gas Energy.

After all, judging from the current situation, Liwan Energy's only designated purchaser is China Gas. As for the world's only mobile power station, it has no reference system and can only be reflected in the stock price after it is launched.

As soon as the article "Hong Kong Island Daily" which can be regarded as an international natural gas prospect survey was released, the share price of Liwan Energy soared to HK$15...m.
