Chapter 1065: Gaidar and Chubais come on a surprise visit
Immediately afterwards, Berezovsky explained his analysis to Fang Chen and others.
After Fang Chen smiled, he suddenly lowered his head and fell silent.
After a few breaths, Fang Chen's face was serious, and he said seriously word by word: "No! Not really, as a large amount of money begins to buy and sell vouchers, and make a profit from them, the price of vouchers will skyrocket! However, the most important thing is that the price of vouchers should not be so cheap!"
After saying this, Fang Chen glanced deeply at Berezovsky and the others.
According to modern economic theory, capital, like water, will find a depression in value in time, and flow rapidly, and then fill it.
Theoretically, the value of the same goods, including labor, should be highly unified in a similarly developed country and region.
In other words, if the impact of tariffs is excluded for an imported steak, even the price of a haircut, whether it is in New York or London, the price should be almost the same.
Obviously, these factories and enterprises in Russia, oil and gas fields, mines, etc., belong to the value depression, and it stands to reason that capital will quickly pull up the prices of these factories, enterprises, and natural resources in Russia.
And now, the main reason why these Russian factories and enterprises have such a price difference of hundreds or thousands of times is that Chubais and Gaidar did not intend to calculate the actual value of these factories and enterprises when they designed this voucher scheme.
In other words, in their opinion, the value of the ticket is just a symbolic symbol, whether it is ten dollars, or a hundred dollars, or ten thousand dollars, the final representative of this voucher is 148 million of all Russian industrial property.
However, another important reason is that the economic theory just mentioned has a necessary premise if it is to be realized, that is, in the case of an efficient market.
But now, with the existence of such an empty glove white wolf as the Foundation, Russia's voucher trading market can definitely not be called an effective market.
The price at which these foundations acquire the plants and resources of Russian enterprises is close to zero, so when they sell these factories and resources to real buyers in competition with each other, it will naturally not be higher, and the market will not give them a real price.
But once his trading rules are established, everyone who wants to get the voucher must spend real money, and to ensure that they spend more money than others to get the voucher, then the voucher trading market will become a real effective market.
In this case, the price of the voucher will naturally rise.
He expects the price of a voucher to rise from the current minimum of $4 to $100 or even $200 in the future.
But he doesn't think it's particularly strange that Berezovsky can get 20 percent of Russia's oil and gas resources for about $100 million.
Anyone who has spent a lot of time in Russia, in this so-called free country, especially in business, has such an illusion.
Because now Russia has not always been an effective market!
Can a country that can take tens of billions of dollars in assets with his signature be called an efficient market?
Berezovsky: They are more accustomed to relying on influence, networks, and unspoken rules to do things, and they do not know what wonderful changes will occur in trading in an efficient market.
After pondering the meaning of Fang Chen's words, Berezovsky couldn't help but be shocked, and looked at Fang Chen with some surprise, and there was a trace of deep emotion in his excited eyes.
"Mr. Fang, as Yelena said, you are really an angel......"
Speaking of this, Berezovsky's voice suddenly choked a little, and he couldn't go on.
Seeing this, Ma Yun glanced at Fang Chen and Berezovsky with understanding, he already understood something, while Chen Mingyong and Yelena looked at the scene in front of them a little blankly, obviously they didn't quite understand.
Fang Chen patted Berezovsky's shoulder comfortingly, and said with a smile: "Okay, once the rules are established, then the price increase of the voucher will not be transferred by our will, what we do is to go with the market and take the money we should pay." ”
Speaking of this, Fang Chen paused, winked at Berezovsky, and said with a hint of playfulness in his tone: "After all, no matter what, we must always give the price on the tickets of Chubais and Gaidar, and we can't take advantage of them too much, otherwise they will come to me to protest." ”
Russia's oil and gas resources account for about one-third of the total value of Russia's industrial value of $12 billion, or $4 billion, and if he wants to get 20 percent of Russia's oil and gas resources, it means that he needs to pay $800 million.
If you count the premium, one billion should be the same, or even more expensive He is not surprised, after all, this is at least a property worth hundreds of billions of dollars, even if it is only for seven years.
If this is 100 million US dollars to take away all of Russia's oil and gas resources, Chubais and Gaidar will have to go crazy.
Moreover, he was also afraid that after Comrade Vladimir came to power, he would settle accounts with him, so he still tried to be as authentic as possible and make his reputation better.
At the very least, there can be talks before Comrade Vladimir intends to attack him.
Seriously, to lay such a large foundation in Russia, saying that he can abandon it all without care, I'm afraid the ghost won't believe it.
It's just that when he thinks of Vladimir's ruthless methods against those big oligarchs after he came to power, Fang Chen has a feeling of helplessness, which is probably not easy to talk about.
Seriously, sometimes, he really felt the urge to finish off Flakimi ahead of time.
With his current strength in Russia, it should not be difficult to do this, after all, Vladimir at this time was only an assistant to the president of Leningrad University for foreign affairs and an adviser to the mayor of St. Petersburg, and for him, he was just a small person.
But he can't afford the price, and the devil knows whether the Russian president who will come to power at that time will join the arms of the United States to fight against China, let alone whether it will cause a third world war.
Of course, it does not mean that Vladimir is pro-Chinese, in the early stage after he came to power, he basically continued Yeltsin's pro-Western policy, and has been seeking to join the G7, and even to join NATO, but later his face was swollen by the United States, coupled with the fierce sanctions of Western countries after taking Crimea, which made Vladimir choose to be with Huaxia.
Seriously, Russia joined NATO, and Vladimir really dared to think that the reason why this NATO was established was to deal with the Soviets, and if Russia joined, who else would NATO target?
What else do you do with the annual drills?
It can be disbanded directly.
In any case, he did not dare to bet on whether Russia would become a wild horse on the loose, and what he would do after becoming a wild horse.
Thinking that one day in the future he would have to face an existence like Vladimir, Fang Chen felt a pain in his head.
"But you're still going to raise the price and get these vouchers to where they should be, aren't you?" Berezovsky lowered his head, rubbed his eyes, and then suddenly raised his head and said with a chuckle.
He believed that with his boss's reputation in Russia, once Huaxia Bank began to announce the acquisition of warrants, even at a price of four dollars, it would be able to absorb a large number of vouchers.
After all, Russia has become accustomed to depositing money and withdrawing money in Huaxia Bank, handling all kinds of financial business, and even saying something unpleasant, the vouchers were originally issued to various Russians through Huaxia Bank.
After all, you can't let the Central Bank of Russia do this, right?
Although the central bank is a bank, it is actually a government department, which is responsible for managing the bank and formulating and implementing monetary policy, and does not involve actual business.
At this time, Chen Mingyong and Ye Lina also came back to their senses, and they both looked at Fang Chen with complicated expressions, especially Ye Lina almost shed tears again.
She already understood that Fang Chen's doing this would allow the Russians to sell their vouchers at a much higher price, two, five, or even ten times higher than now.
"Boss, the Russians are so pitiful, this voucher is probably their most important asset, you are too great. Yelena said seriously with tears in her eyes.
After working in Huaxia Bank for a long time, she has seen more poor people, especially some orphans and widows, who are really pitiful, so she can basically help everything, and her heart is becoming softer and softer.
"Well, as for such hypocrisy, if outsiders know about it, they will think that I have done something very good, and sooner or later the voucher will return to the position where it should be. Fang Chen said with a smile.
He didn't feel like he could be called great, he just did what he had to do.
As for formulating such a rule, and raising the purchase price of vouchers, and even taking the initiative to raise the purchase price of vouchers again when the price of vouchers is suspended in the future, it can only be said that he has a little more conscience than those big oligarchs, foreign tycoons, liars, and robbers.
And in this conscience discovery, there are still many reasons for making too much money and being embarrassed.
If he could buy 20% of Russia's natural gas and oil fields, worth tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, for only one billion dollars, he would really wake up laughing from his dreams.
The extra money should be used to buy peace of mind.
Stopping Berezovsky and the others from continuing to pat him on the back, Fang Chen carefully discussed with the four of them how to act.
It's okay to say that if these foundations are brought down and stink, they still have to be well planned.
Chatting and chatting, suddenly there was a knock on the door, Fang Chen subconsciously glanced at Wu Maocai, generally speaking, when he was discussing things, no one would disturb him, especially the service staff of the hotel.
But if someone visits, the person on guard below will also notify you.
Hui Ming and Han Guang's eyes couldn't help but shift to the gate, and Han Guang also touched his waist.
Wu Maocai walked over gently, and through the cat's eyes, he saw two men in hoodies who couldn't see their faces clearly standing at the door, and he couldn't help but feel that his hairs stood up, and then looked back at Fang Chen.
After Fang Chen nodded in agreement, Wu Maocai asked in Russian, "Who." ”
After the two men in hoodies took off the hats on their heads, Wu Mao couldn't help but be stunned, and after a few breaths, he turned his head to Fang Chen and said, "It's Gaidar and Chubais." ”
Hearing these two, human lives that should never have appeared at this time, Fang Chen couldn't help but pause.
Gaidar, a former first deputy prime minister who had resigned, and Chubais, who was now Yeltsin's most trusted chief of staff, suddenly ran to him without saying hello, and Fang Chen really felt like the sun was coming out of the west, which was really weird.
And this is no longer an adjective that there is something big going to happen in the dark, these two come in this way, there must be something big going to happen!
But now, he knew why someone could go straight to his gate and knock on his door without being informed, because Gaidar and Chubais were already qualified.
Fang Chen took two quick steps, walked over in person, opened the door, and then invited the two in.
As the three of them sat down, Fang Chen looked Gaidar and Chubais up and down, his expression suddenly became a little weird, if he didn't say it, I'm afraid no one would have imagined that the two young men with haggard faces and heavy black bags under their eyes in front of him at this time were important figures in Russia.
Especially Gaidar, he felt that he had really lost a lot of weight, the original Gaidar was a little fat, but now his body is much more shapely.
"Gaidar, should I congratulate you on losing weight?" Fang Chen said with a smile.
Gaidar smiled bitterly, "Fang, what you see now is the result of a lot of weight gain recently, and I only lost weight in December last year." ”
Fang Chen nodded solemnly, and then patted Gaidar's shoulder comfortingly.
In December last year, when Gaidar was most attacked by Rudskoi, even Gaidar's presidential nomination was rejected by the Duma parliament, and he was forced to resign and step down, and even Yeltsin did not keep him.
After he learned of the news, he also made two special phone calls to Gaidar.
Gaidar patted Fang Chen's hand with his backhand, and said with a free smile: "Okay, Fang, you don't have to comfort me, everything is over, I'm not fat again, but seriously, it's better to be thinner and live longer." ”
Hearing this, Fang Chen couldn't help but have a strange look on his face.
Gaidar did not end well in his previous life, and after the second time he was removed from the position of first deputy prime minister, Gaidar was basically left at home, that is, in 1999, he was elected a member of the third session of the State Duma, and joined the "Union of Right Forces", and became one of the two chairmen of the executive committee together with Chubais.
And he broke his wrist twice with Vladimir.
Of course, not surprisingly, all lost.
In 2006, when Gaidar was speaking at an international conference in Dublin, he suddenly felt unwell, vomited blood, fainted, and was hospitalized.
Moreover, Gaidar strangely fell ill on the second day after the death of former Russian agent Litvinenko, so some people suspect that Gaidar was also "poisoned".
However, both Gaidar and Chubais have refused to accuse the Russian security services, claiming that anti-Russian government forces have poisoned him.
After three years of suffering, Gaidar died in 2009 at the age of 53 from complications caused by blood clots.
