What is Confidence, Confidence?

The oil spill in the Bohai Sea was exposed on June 4 of this year and has so far exceeded 3 months. In spite of the rampant buzz, the State Oceanic Administration of China has repeatedly ordered the responsible party ConocoPhillips to thoroughly investigate the risk of oil leakage and block the source of oil leakage. However, in the past three months, ConocoPhillips’ production has been incessant and the oil spill has continued. . On these two days, CCTV reported that employees of ConocoPhillips said that the company’s implementation of the “two thorough” directives of the Bureau of the Ocean was to lie to you. Subsequently, ConocoPhillips issued a statement saying that their employees did not say such things, CCTV's recording was false.

Regardless of whether the recording is fake, but ConocoPhillips’ oil wells have been leaking oil and polluting the Bohai Sea on a large scale, causing serious losses to many industries that rely on the sea for their livelihood. However, it is an indisputable fact. Obviously, the problem is not whether CCTV or ConocoPhillips had lied. The key is how an oil company can be so unscrupulous. In the past 3 months, it has insisted on side-by-side leakage of oil production, and has completely ignored the Chinese national ecological environment. Laws and regulations of the national law enforcement agencies are at play. Moreover, relevant investigations point out that this time ConocoPhillips' oil spill accident was originally a very low-level error. It is difficult to imagine an international company that can commit such a low-level liability accident. However, people have committed, and there is not much to correct it.

We have seen that in the course of a long accident, despite the "two thorough" directives of China's State Oceanic Administration, there are two tolerations in the ConocoPhillips production environment that are tolerant of corporate pollution accidents with huge profits. And the tolerance of large state-owned enterprises and multinational companies.

Behind ConocoPhillips, CNOOC, one of the Big Three of China National Petroleum Corporation, was the major shareholder of ConocoPhillips. Since the accident happened to Conoco, CNOOC has been invisible and then exposed its face under pressure. Still, I still hold a half-covered cover. The so-called supervisory responsibility has so far only talked about it. The penalty imposed by the State Oceanic Administration on ConocoPhillips was actually only 200,000 yuan. When people think of the oil spill of the British Oil Company in the US Gulf of Mexico last year, BP has paid billions of dollars for this, and people seem to laugh.

In recent years, there have been many environmental pollution incidents caused by large domestic companies and foreign companies in China. However, there is something like BP, which was in trouble, being penalized for bankruptcy. They are gently lifting and gently letting go. Production is still in production and pollution remains. Just as these giant companies can bring astronomical GDP, everything else seems to be forgiven. Confederate's madness, fundamentally, is the Chinese's own problem.
