That's why one of the great skills in business is forging, if not friendships, then at least partnerships between the various people involved in a deal. But it can be very difficult to make it work. Take the relationship between the world's second biggest mining company Rio Tinto and the government of Mongolia. In the last few years, Rio Tinto has spent over $6 billion building a vast copper mine way out in the Gobi desert. It's designed to dig out a huge reserve of copper, gold and silver. When the Oyu Tolgoi mine is fully operational, it'll generate billions of dollars a year in profits and revenues for the government of Mongolia and for Rio Tinto. But the mine has only just gone into production. I was there two weeks ago when the first rather modest mound of copper concentrate was produced. Yet already the two parties are squabbling about who gets what. I met Tsakhaiagiin Elbegdorj, the president of Mongolia, in the presidential palace in the centre of the Mongolian capital Ulan Bator.俗话说，友谊和金钱就像油和水，互不相容。这也是为什么商业中最主要的技巧之一是加强友谊，至少也是加强交易时人与人之间的伙伴关系。但即使是这种关系也很难一团和气。我们以世界第二大采矿企业力拓和蒙古政府为例。在过去的几年中，力拓为在遥远的戈壁沙漠打造出一个巨型铜矿花费了60多亿美元，经鉴定，该地有大量可开采储备资源——金、银、铜。如若奥尤陶勒盖矿完全运转起来，将会为蒙古政府和力拓集团每年创利创收几十亿美元。但该矿才刚刚投入生产。两周前，该矿生产出第一堆小量铜精矿，我就在那里。但双方已经产生利益纷争。我在蒙古首都乌兰巴托市中心的总统府有幸见到了蒙古总统额勒贝格道尔吉阁下。
