Summary

Since the reform and opening-up, as China's economic development has driven ever-growing demand for energy, a group of Chinese energy enterprises began to "go global." Over nearly three decades, the best of them have succeeded in "going in" and "going up," and China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) is one such standout. In 2019, with nearly RMB 800 billion in overseas assets, RMB 1.2 trillion in overseas revenue, and a workforce of 130,000 overseas employees (Chinese and local), CNPC ranked first among China's multinational corporations. Drawing on his work experience, professional expertise, and personal observations, the author presents his account in a narrative and essayistic style, offering both a professional exposition of corporate transnational operations and management and the story of an energy SOE overcoming difficulties and achieving sustained development overseas.

Editor's review

Central SOEs and Globalization is an in-depth analysis of the strategies and practices of China's central state-owned enterprises (SOEs) on the global stage. Drawing on his deep industry background and frontline management experience, author Lu Ruquan paints a multidimensional picture of Chinese SOEs' internationalization journey. The book's value lies not only in systematically tracing the development trajectory, driving factors, and evolving models of central SOE globalization, but also in its analysis based on a wealth of real cases, revealing the opportunities, challenges, and response strategies facing central SOEs in a complex international environment. Its discussion of the role of central SOEs under the Belt and Road Initiative is particularly profound, going beyond simple policy interpretation to the operational, risk-control, and cultural-integration dimensions of specific projects. In the editor's view, the book's standout feature is its balance between practicality and forward-looking insight. It is both a solid summary of central SOEs' going-global experience over the past decades, and its reflections on future global governance, digitalization, and sustainable development offer key clues for understanding the next moves of central SOEs and the Chinese economy. For readers who wish to go beyond macro narratives and understand the micro-operational logic of Chinese corporate globalization, this is an invaluable reference.
