Two days later, west of Moscow, a small village called Arkhangelsk.

A tiger head galloped into the quiet village in a low-key manner, except for the howl of a few hounds, the whole process was silent and unwavering.

At a glance, the No. 15 nameplate on the door of the villa, Fang Chen's expression was inexplicable, and there was a feeling of mixed taste, this was the famous No. 15 villa.

Hidden in a small village, Villa 15 is now the de facto brain, the center of Russia, where Russia's economic policy will be determined for the next nine years.

Gaidar and Chubais led a group of young economists in their thirties to ponder and discuss here, trying to find a road to capitalism and a free market for Russia.

As for why he is hiding here, it can only be said that Yeltsin is still working in the White House and has not officially settled in the Kremlin, and the owner of the Kremlin is still Gorbachev.

Then, except for Gorbachev himself and Fang Chen, I am afraid that anyone should worry about Gorbachev's counterattack, and it is normal to hide here.

Fang Chen got out of the car, his feet stepped on the yellow and rotten leaves, making a squeaky sound, a cold wind blew, and he subconsciously tightened his collar.

Looking up at Gaidar and Chubais, who were already at the door, Fang Chen said with a smile: "It's a little cold in Moscow now." ”

After speaking, the corners of Fang Chen's mouth turned up slightly, looking a little proud.

Not everyone can let Yeltsin's two big think tanks, Russia's two first deputy prime ministers, go out to greet them.

"Fang, the cold winter that truly belongs to Russia has not yet come, but I believe that the cold winter in Russia will pass in a flash, and then we will usher in a permanent spring. Chubais shook Fang Chen's hands attentively, punned on each other, and said with a smile.

Ever since that small circle gathering, Fang Chen was familiar with his most proud papers, and he had always regarded Fang Chen as a confidant, not to mention Yeltsin's two major economic think tanks, and he needed to get insights and help from Fang Chen, the richest man in Russia.

Nodding, Fang Chen said solemnly: "I also believe that under the leadership of Mr. President and you, the Russian people will usher in an eternal spring." ”

Gaidar and Chubais's faces were slightly happy, and now in addition to them, they can actually influence Russia's economic policy, Kadannikov, the current deputy general manager, the former director of the Volga Automobile Plant, the star director of the Soviet state-owned enterprises, and Fang Chen, the richest man in Russia.

This can be seen from Fang Chen's invitation to Villa 15 for a meeting.

And in general, Kadannikov and Fang Chen are considered one, and Kadannikov will agree with Fang Chen's opinion, and vice versa.

In addition, they knew that although it seemed that they had been leading people to discuss and formulate economic policies, Yeltsin attached great importance to the opinions of Kadannikov and Fang Chen.

Because they have an unavoidable disadvantage, that is, they are just economists, people sitting in ivory towers, while Fang Chen and Kadannikov are doers who do real things.

And now Fang Chen's attitude is obviously showing his support for them.

In fact, Fang Chen's heart completely scoffed at Chubais's words, and I have to say that these two economists who have stayed in the ivory tower for a long time are too naïve, and the future is not as optimistic as they imagined.

The current chill is only the beginning of Russia's ice in the next thirty years, as for when spring is approaching and the ice melts, Fang Chen doesn't know, anyway, he didn't see it in 2018.

From now, even from the time Gorbachev came to power in 85, all that the Soviets, or Russia, have, is decline and decline, and Comrade Vladimir is at most delaying this process, not being able to solve it.

The theories of Chubais and Gailda left a vacuum - the breakthrough of free prices and private property, in fact, was put forward without first establishing the main institutions of the market.

In the chaotic era of alternation between Russia and the Soviets, the economy was like a wild horse that ran wild in the wild forest irregularly, because there was no master to manage it.

This vacuum has weakened the ambition and achievements of reform, and without a clear mechanism of rewards and punishments, how can Chubais realize his dream of establishing "effective private owners"?

Is it really good to let the boxers out first, and then build a boxing ring for them to fight?

"Gaidar, it seems that you are quite used to staying here. Fang Chen smiled and quipped Gaidar, who was chubby and similar to Winnie the Pooh in both body and appearance.

After dealing with Gaidar a few times, Fang Chen found that Gelda was really not good at communicating with the outside world, as rumored by the outside world.

Chubais, who was more assertive and tactful, was seen as a more shrewd politician.

However, he never underestimated Yeltsin's first think tank, the future first deputy manager of Russia.

Although he was not as good as Chubais, who had three ups and downs and served as first deputy general manager three times, especially in the era of Comrade Vladimir, he could still retire and serve as chairman of the board of directors of the Russian Unified Power Company, but Gaidar also served as the first deputy general manager twice, and after stepping down, he ran for the post of general manager as chairman of the Russian Democratic Choice Party.

However, it is interesting to note that after Comrade Vladimir came to power, in 2001, at the inaugural meeting of the Union of Right Forces of Russia, the two chairmen of the Executive Committee were elected Gaidar and Chubais.

"It's okay, after all, the fat on my body is thick and frost-resistant. ”

It seemed that because of Fang Chen's affirmation and support, Gaidar made a rare joke.

Chubais just wanted to interject, but Fang Chen stopped him, "Chubais, don't talk, I know you're used to days like this." ”

Hearing this, Chubais paused for a moment, and instead of being angry, he showed a happy smile, "I am indeed used to this kind of day of hiding in Tibet like a mouse. ”

He was accustomed to it, and when he first built up a cadre of free-thinking economists in Leningrad, he kept it extremely secretive.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of the KGB, they hid in the stairwells to debate Nashur's radical views, and the same tension hung over them as now, and the Soviet system forced them to be conspirators, otherwise they would be repressed.

After a few more small talks, Gaidar and Chubais invited Fang Chen in.

The young economists in the villa looked at Fang Chen, who was obviously the younger Russian leader, in surprise.

However, after a pause, everyone greeted Fang Chen eagerly, they knew that Fang Chen was just a businessman, and he was also a Chinese, but his status was not too much inferior to Gaidar and Chubais, anyway, they couldn't afford to offend.

Fang Chen also responded with a smile one by one, but he knew what kind of important role these young people in front of him who were still a little immature would play in Russia in the next nine years, so naturally he would not put on a cold face.

It could even be said that now is a good opportunity for him to make connections.

And he also asked Wu Maocai, Huiming, and Han Guang to bring some beef legs, venison, lamb chops, truffles, caviar, sausages and other messy things he brought with him, which was considered a treat for everyone.

Of course, vogart is essential.

made everyone's eyes light up, and Fang Chen's perception of the big man was much better.

Although there is no shortage of food and drink in Villa 15, it is still a little difficult to eat these.

And as a group of fighters who sacrificed their lives for their ideals, it seems that they should not take the initiative to ask for extravagant and sumptuous food.

After chatting with everyone for a while, Gaidar and Chubais mysteriously pulled Fang Chen into a hut and handed Fang Chen a document.

"Fang, this is the economic policy we are discussing during this time, and I hope you can give your opinions. Gaidar said nervously.

Fang Chen smiled and patted Gaidar's strong shoulder, "Dear Gaidar, you don't have to be nervous, my trust in you will definitely not be inferior to Mr. President, even if this document has some flaws, it must be flawed and harmless." ”

Hearing this, Gaidar's expression couldn't help but relax a lot, and he said with a smile: "Dear Fang, every time I talk to you, I seem so pleasant. ”

He obviously knew that the point of Fang Chen's words just now was Yeltsin's trust in him, and this was the most important thing.

"So do I. ”

Fang Chen laughed twice, and then looked down at Gaidar and the others, the fruits of their labor during this time.

However, the content of the document was not unexpected by Fang Chen, or he probably knew these things in his previous life.

This is a document on shock therapy, which is densely written in Russian, after a year of study, Fang Chen's Russian communication is probably no problem, but Russian, there is still some power, very difficult.

"Fang, this is our negligence, we should prepare an English document for you, I'll read it to you now. Chubais said apologetically.

For them, there is absolutely no problem in instructing an economist in a villa to translate the document into English first, and most of their affairs are idle anyway.

Fang Chen said with a smile: "Then I'm afraid I have to thank you for your negligence, allowing me to enjoy the presidential treatment once." ”

Chubais and Gaidar paused for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing, Chubais is now the chief of staff of the president, and the only person who can read the document to himself is probably Yeltsin.
