Chapter 67 Invited

The next day, the foreign ministries of the two countries got in touch.

The two parties established initial contact through letters and phone calls, and exchanged opinions on cooperation.

On October 27, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Dragon State announced that, at the invitation of the Yan State, it would officially go to the Yan State on October 29 to discuss strategic cooperation between the two countries.

As soon as this incident was released, it immediately aroused heated discussions around the world and became the focus of everyone's discussion.

"Holy shit, oh shit, is Long Country going to establish diplomatic relations with Yan Country?"

"It was so sudden, there was no news at all."

"How come it's so fast?"

"This is the real big move!"

"The boss didn't reveal any news at all. He was so well hidden!"

"I never expected that the first country to establish diplomatic relations with the Yan Kingdom would be the Dragon Kingdom! This is one of the five permanent members!"

"If diplomatic relations are truly established, will Yan Country be considered a sovereign country?"

"What does Long Guo see in Yan Guo? This is too sudden."

This incident not only aroused widespread attention and heated discussion on the Internet, but also surprised governments of various countries.

In the U.S. Congress, the Speaker of the House of Representatives convened a temporary group meeting on this matter to conduct relevant discussions.

This is the first time that the United States has paid real attention to the country Yanguo.

In other words, they are not paying attention to the Yan Kingdom, but the Dragon Kingdom.

Because of Long Guo's actions, they began to pay attention to this new country that had been popular on the Internet for more than three months.

They compiled all the information about Yan Kingdom and analyzed it.

"For a country that has just been established for more than three months, what does Long Guo see in its sights?"

"Could it be that natural resources were discovered in Yan Country?"

"It makes no sense." The Speaker shook his head.

Not to mention that the exploration of oil and gas resources requires an extremely long period of time and cannot be determined in a short time.

Even if the Yan Kingdom did have oil and gas resources, it would be difficult to independently exploit them with the technology of the Dragon Kingdom.

Then there are the transportation conditions and costs.

Yanguo is 1,000 nautical miles away from the nearest Philippines, Lubin, and even further away from Longguo.

After extraction, the cost of transporting oil and gas by sea or shipping is extremely high. If you choose to build a pipeline, the cost is like a bottomless pit.

There are many large oil fields in Longguo itself.

Among them, oil fields with reserves of more than 40 million tons have been discovered in Inner Mongolia, natural gas reserves of more than 1 billion tons have been discovered in Xinjiang, and oil fields with 500 million tons of oil have been discovered in Qinghai.

It stands to reason that Dragon Kingdom has no shortage of oil and gas, but Dragon Kingdom still spends more than 10 billion to build ocean transportation pipelines and import oil and gas from other countries.

Why?

It is because of technical conditions and transportation costs.

In contrast, directly importing oil and gas is more economical than extracting it yourself.

So it cannot be about oil and gas resources.

Moreover, judging from the development direction of Yan State, Yan State's natural resource reserves should be extremely low and have no mining value.

As we all know, there is a financial group behind Yanguo, and the financial group is profit-seeking.

If Yan country has rich resources, why is it still struggling to build a country?

Just unite the countries directly, distribute the benefits well, and just exploit them directly.

But looking at the current situation in Yanguo, the city has been built, the furniture factory has been built, and now it is starting to follow the industrialization route.

You can doubt the character of the rich, but you cannot doubt the vision of the rich.

Yanguo's current development path must be the result of weighing the pros and cons.

This is also the reason why no matter how popular Yan Guo has been in the past few months, the United States has not paid much attention to it.

They had already analyzed it from the time Yan Guo showed its strong financial resources.

The result of the analysis is that Yanguo is an island lacking resources.

Therefore, the Dragon Kingdom must have other plans.

But just from the information collected so far, we still can't tell what the specific points are that attract Yanguo to Longguo.

In the end, the group meeting did not discuss specific content, and decided to wait until the two countries established diplomatic relations to see what cooperation matters they announced.
