Chapter 856: Trip to the Middle East

The two sides signed a series of cooperation agreements.

Panshan Group entered Saudi Arabia in an all-round way, taking Saudi Arabia as the most important market in the Middle East, and then radiating to the entire Middle East.

By the millennium, Huaxia Automobile Group will establish at least one 4S store in major cities in Saudi Arabia. At least one 4S store should also be established in major cities in Middle Eastern countries to strengthen Huaxia Automobile's sales channels and after-sales service capabilities.

4S store is a car franchise model with "four-in-one" as the core, including whole vehicle sales (Sale), spare parts (Sparepart), after-sales service (Service), information feedback (Survey), etc.

In addition to the layout of automobiles, Huaxia Jinlong Computer Group Co., Ltd. will establish a Middle East headquarters, a research institute, and specialty stores and after-sales service stores in Saudi Arabia.

The cooperation agreements in all aspects cover the military and civilian fields.

It can be said that this visit to Saudi Arabia has achieved the expected goals.

Saudi Arabia thought that these cooperations would provide jobs for Saudi Arabia and train industrial workers, but Liu Tao was not optimistic at all. He did not think that these could provide many jobs for beach people, and more would be transferred from Huaxia at that time.

There is no way, Saudi Arabia is too rich.

It is estimated that no Saudi is willing to work in factories, repair shops, or even after-sales service shops for technical maintenance.

After leaving Saudi Arabia, Liu Tao went to Kuwait.

Even after the Gulf War, Kuwait still maintained an armed force of 50,000, and the number of mercenaries reached 5,000.

Kuwait is really scared!

By now, Kuwait has restored the oil market and brought in oil revenue continuously.

Liu Tao came here to discuss the mine clearance business.

There are minefields on the Kuwait-Iran border, which is a headache for Kuwait, and mine clearance is not so easy.

The risk is high and the mine clearance speed is slow.

The key is that Kuwait does not have this ability.

Panshan Group is very good at this. It can clear the minefields in less than a year by transferring a few mine clearance vehicles.

Mine clearance vehicles are one of the few non-sale products of Panshan Group and have never been exported.

In addition to the mine clearance project, Liu Tao also hopes to strengthen cooperation with Kuwait.

As a country with extremely rich oil resources, Kuwait's importance is self-evident, and Kuwait is rich. Liu Tao hopes to make more money from Kuwait and also hopes that Kuwait will increase its investment in China.

With the continuous construction of LNG ships, natural gas resources will also turn into huge wealth, and Liu Tao must speed up the layout of these.

In the field of natural gas production, it is difficult for Panshan Group to be very large. This is an objective limitation. Even if Huaxia Petroleum Group is about to be separated from Huaxia Southwest Industrial Group Corporation and become the thirteenth secondary sub-group under Panshan Group, Huaxia Petroleum Group will grow into an international energy giant in the future, but the ceiling in production is obvious.

If you can't control this area, then naturally control the transportation and sales area!

Liquefied natural gas, whether it is Europe, Huaxia, Japan and South Korea, etc., is needed.

The market is very large.

Huaxia Petroleum Group focuses on Huaxia offshore oil, natural gas and overseas oil and natural gas. This is a huge difference from the newly established Huaxia Petrochemical Group. Huaxia Petrochemical Group focuses on the exploration and development of oil and natural gas on land in Huaxia.

The two sides are in a competitive relationship, but also complementary to a certain extent.

At present, China Petroleum Group is at the forefront in terms of layout and operation, playing an important role in reform pilot projects.

Liu Tao will not only go to Kuwait, but also to Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Oman, Iraq, Syria, Iran, Tanzania, Djibouti and other places.

It is not only to inspect the industry of Panshan Group, but also to seek cooperation.

Now is a good time.

The world is generally peaceful, and all countries are solving their own problems and working hard to develop their economies.

The United States is now focusing on solving internal problems and promoting its own economic development.

This has also led to the development of the economy in the world.

Everyone works hard to develop, and there will be fewer conflicts.

If Latin America is not too close to the United States and is not the backyard of the Americans, Liu Tao would like to go to Latin America.

In the past ten years, oil prices have been high. In order to suppress oil prices, the United States has gradually increased its development of Latin American oil, which has made Latin America's economic development better in recent years and has emerged from the economic crisis.

There are even countries like Venezuela that have developed rapidly relying on oil trade.

When Liu Tao arrived in Kuwait, he was warmly received by Prince Fahd and King Emir.

They were all very grateful to Liu Tao.

If there was no Liu Tao, there would be no Kuwait today.

It can be said that because of Liu Tao, Kuwait has reduced its losses by at least 150 billion to 200 billion US dollars.

Moreover, Kuwait has also benefited a lot from the cooperation between the two sides in the past ten years.

Kuwait's investment in China has brought great asset gains every year.

The most important thing is that Panshan Group is very trustworthy and can be relied on at critical times.

After the Gulf War, Kuwait quickly resumed its life. If it were not for personal experience, no one would say that Kuwait had been destroyed.

Kuwait is naturally happy to see the strengthening of cooperation between the two sides and joint development.

After staying in Kuwait for three days, Liu Tao went to Qatar.

Just when Liu Tao was on his ocean trip, the southern section of Shanghai Metro Line 1 was opened and put into trial operation, making Shanghai the fourth city in the mainland to have a subway after Beijing, Tianjin and Kunming.

Soon, Guangzhou and Pengcheng will also have subways.

Other cities have also looked at subways in terms of transportation planning, planning to build subways in their own cities.

The advantages of subways are beyond doubt.

This will greatly promote the transportation of a city.

Xiangjiang and Kunming have become the templates of the Chinese subway, and major cities have sent inspection teams to Xiangjiang and Kunming to inspect the subway.

It can be expected that in the next thirty or forty years, the Chinese subway will be everywhere in major cities, promoting the development of Chinese cities and the economy.

In addition, there is a very obvious change, that is, to further promote the development of commercial housing.

Before, the housing in China was mainly distributed by unit welfare and supplemented by commercial housing development. At that time, the units provided money and land, and the developers developed houses and earned a certain profit. A small number of them got a piece of land for commercial housing development. However, in the next period of time, we will enter a stage where both unit welfare housing distribution and commercial housing development will be given equal importance, thereby further promoting the real estate industry and improving people's housing needs and environment.

When it develops to a certain extent, unit welfare housing distribution will be suspended, and commercial housing will be the main focus, and the government will build a batch of low-rent housing as a supplement, thus maintaining the healthy development of the real estate industry.

The whole world is working hard to develop the economy, and China is no exception, and it pays more attention to it.
