() Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russians have been poor, and although they have a lot of technology, they do not have the funds to maintain progress in balance with the times, so the gap between them and the United States is getting farther and farther

The Black Sea Shipyard was originally the largest shipyard in the entire Soviet Union during the Soviet period, comparable to the Newport News Shipyard in the United States, and one of the largest shipyards in the world, but after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Black Sea Shipyard was assigned to Ukraine, but Ukraine has been economically sluggish, so it is impossible to maintain the operation of the shipyard

After Ukraine broke away from the Soviet Union, it got a chicken rib, wanted to introduce foreign capital injection, but it was a pity that it was directly dismantled and sold due to Russia's restrictions, so it became the current mess, except for the Russian Black Sea Fleet and shipyards have business dealings, basically no big orders can be received every year, which is not enough to maintain the shipyard's huge size

Canglong proposed to take a controlling stake in the Black Sea Shipyard, and the interests behind it are also very simple, using the influence of China and Russia to act as a medium for future shipyards behind the scenes, and even if a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is built, the Americans will have no choice, so the fundamental problem will be solved, and all that needs to be done is to share the cake with the two countries

But Hamullet still decided to consider whether it was good to discuss on the Russian side, after all, Russia has no money now, and it urgently needs aircraft carriers to maintain its status as an old power, if he pays for it, Russia will definitely not stop it, but will support it

But on China's side, this is the problem, although Canglong looks confident, but before getting the actual chips on the table, Hamulet will not invest in blood

However, he promised that Canglong would go to the Black Sea shipyard to investigate, and make a risk assessment report at that time, but this time he couldn't pay alone, but he had to pull Canglong to pay together

Canglong has no objection, after all, cooperation is cooperation, there are more pitfalls, and there may be huge risks in the next cooperation, at least after rì, the use value of Hamullet is definitely not limited to a Dubai, and the same Hamullet also values the use value of Canglong, otherwise he would not have invested so much money to cooperate with him on so many projects

The arms industry is not like an investment in China, although the benefits are huge, but it is also very risky, compared to Canglong's Dongning investment plan, Hamullett actually knows that it is just a lack of money, so it seems very naïve, but if there is really money, as long as it is not a fool to operate, it will basically not lose money, and it is definitely profitable or profitable

Otherwise, Hamullet would never be so generous, although there is also a relationship between Mariam and Merlin, but it is only a passing relationship, not the main reason

When Canglong and Hamulet came out of the cubicle, the two were no longer as cold as just now, and everyone could see what agreement the two of them seemed to have reached, Secretary Yu did not ask her, she felt that this should be an internal negotiation between the two companies, which was not important to her, the important thing was that she got the investment contract, so that she was ninety percent sure to persuade the Reform Office to change her mind

Mariam, on the other hand, was crying, she felt that Canglong must have used herself and her brother to achieve some shady purpose, but she also did not speak

After a few people finished eating, they were about to leave, but Canglong said to Maryam: "Stay and talk to your brother, Secretary Yu and I still have things to do, and I will come to pick you up after I finish it."

Hearing this, Mariam's face changed, and she looked at Canglong with a longing expression, as if she was saying, please don't leave me here, don't let me go back

Even Secretary Yu saw something, but she couldn't speak, and finally Canglong spoke: "I promised you, if you don't want to go back, no one can take you away."

After receiving Canglong's answer, Mariam was relieved and finally agreed to stay, while Hamulet just shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and suddenly felt that it seemed that Mariam should be treated in a different way

Still in the taxi, but only Secretary Yu and Canglong, this time Canglong did not sit in the passenger seat, the taxi driver was not so talkative, both of them were silent all the way, and after a long time, Secretary Yu broke the silence and asked: "Where are we going now?"

Canglong looked at his watch, it happened to be three o'clock in the afternoon, and he made an appointment with Commissioner Du that it was four o'clock, but he didn't tell Secretary Yu, just said: "You'll know when you arrive."

For Canglong's pretense and mystery, Secretary Yu didn't think so, because she was holding the contract in her hand, even if it was for the sake of the contract, she couldn't ridicule him

Taxi then arrived at Běi Jīng's famous Tang Lang restaurant, which is located in the South Gate Park of the Workers' Stadium and serves Chinese jīng tasting and special sè casual bars

Its secluded elegance is one of the biggest reasons why many people come to visit, and the whole restaurant presents a sense of tranquility and tranquility

Under the leadership of the waiter, Canglong and they went straight to a private room on the second floor, which was the place he had already set

Seeing that no one came for a long time, Secretary Yu asked: "Who are we waiting for, and how are you so familiar with this place, haven't you always lived in France?"

"This is a place recommended by the person we are waiting for," Canglong said with a smile, "How about the environment, isn't it?"

"It's really good," Secretary Yu rarely praised, and she couldn't create such a quiet atmosphere in a metropolis like Běi Jīng, without praise

At about four o'clock, the person they were waiting for finally came, and when Secretary Yu saw Commissioner Du, he was stunned for a moment, and then when he saw Director Xu beside her, his face changed directly, and she came, běi jīng, who still knows this director of the Reform Office many times, can be described as a person who is in power and decides the life and death of Dongning

"Why are you," Director Xu frowned, and then asked Commissioner Du beside him, "Du Xiaomin, this is what you said about godson, when will you also learn to fool people?"

After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but Commissioner Du took his hand, looked at Canglong and said, "Well, that's my godson, Secretary Yu is here, I really don't know."

"Godson" Secretary Yu was surprised, especially when he saw Commissioner Du holding Director Xu's hand, his face was even more colorful, even Canglong was like this, when did he become Commissioner Du's godson, but at Commissioner Du's age, being his godmother was not an advantage

Thinking of yesterday, Commissioner Du said yesterday that Director Xu was a strange temper, Canglong understood something, especially when he saw Commissioner Du still holding Director Xu's hand intimately, if he still didn't understand, then he would be a fool, with Commissioner Du's character, it is absolutely impossible to be a mistress or something

"Xiaolong is not going to call Godfather soon," Commissioner Du took Director Xu's hand with one hand to prevent him from leaving, and winked at Canglong as he spoke

Canglong was stunned for a moment, he probably hasn't called a father in his life, so he held back for a long time before saying: "godfather"

Although everyone heard Canglong's cry and did not petition, but Director Xu finally decided to stay, but he didn't return to Canglong, he just sat on the main seat by himself, Secretary Yu hurriedly poured him tea, but Director Xu didn't appreciate it and said directly: "You are the secretary of the Dongning Municipal Party Committee, you should know that engaging in this set is illegal and undisciplined."

"I" Secretary Yu didn't know what to say, because she didn't know about it beforehand, but she didn't feel embarrassed, because since she knew this Director Xu, she had never seen him have a good face with people

"Lao Xu, are you really not going to give me this face," but at this moment, Commissioner Du suddenly sat down on Canglong's side with a straight face, "Although I promised Xiaolong to introduce you to him, but I never said that you would promise them anything, as for the final decision, it is still up to you to decide, so it is embarrassing for you?"

Secretary Yu didn't speak, Canglong couldn't help but lower his head, he didn't expect it to be such a scene, if he had known that Lao Xu was the husband of Commissioner Du, it is estimated that Canglong would not have made an appointment here, now what's going on

But obviously, Lao Xu is a person who loves his wife very much, and when he saw his wife angry, he didn't feel that he had lost face, but just said: "Okay, okay, my fault is my fault, can't I make amends?"

"That's pretty much it," Commissioner Du suddenly laughed again

Seeing this posture, Secretary Yu hurriedly said that he didn't dare to pour tea for Director Xu again, and then Director Xu was a little dissatisfied and said, "Since you even found your godmother, then you can tell me about your plan."

Director Xu looked at Canglong, although he was careless, but Canglong felt that his eyes were sharp, and he was always watching his every move, but Canglong was not nervous at all, but said calmly: "Do you think there is anything wrong with my plan?"

Hearing Canglong's tone, Secretary Yu hurriedly glanced at him, but Canglong didn't care at all, and Commissioner Du was still drinking his own tea, and he didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with Canglong's tone

Director Xu was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Canglong deeply, at first, he thought that Canglong was the kind of impolite young man, but when he stared at Canglong's eyes, he found that Canglong was also staring at him, and the two exchanged glances, Canglong did not have the slightest intention of taking it back, which made Director Xu a little surprised

There are very few people who dare to face him in his position, especially those of Canglong's age, who are not trembling when they see it, let alone such an aggressive gaze, and even he saw a little attack in Canglong's eyes

Director Xu was not angry, but thought it was very interesting, so he was straightforward and merciless: "It's naïve and ridiculous, if it is really estimated, Dongning will become a mess"

Saying that, he looked at Secretary Yu: "Are you also a child, follow him so nonsense?"

Secretary Yu didn't know what to say, but Commissioner Du glared at Director Xu, his eyes showed a bit of blame, and he turned his head to Canglong and said, "Don't care, he's just this temper."

Canglong didn't say anything, but Director Xu continued: "Oriental International was able to bid for the main project of the new economic zone in Dongning City because of the abundant funds behind it, but later we found out that the capital chain of Oriental International was not stable, and even many of them were not coming from the right way, Dongning City is a reform pilot, Secretary Yu, you will find such a company to cooperate with and follow him to mess around, it really disappoints me."

Saying that, Director Xu took a deep look at Canglong, and Commissioner Du didn't speak, and looked at Canglong strangely, because she didn't know that Canglong was the president of Orient International, and thought that Canglong was just setting up a line for Secretary Yu, but now it seems that things are completely different

So she politely didn't speak, if Canglong was just a line, she could still help, but when it came to national interests, Commissioner Du would definitely not interfere with her husband's handling if he liked Canglong

And Secretary Yu also looked at Canglong, and there were doubts about the bidding at that time, but the president of Longteng International made a guarantee, so she was relieved, but now it seems that this is not the case

But no one could have imagined that Canglong didn't care at all in the face of Director Xu's questioning, but said: "Every foreign-funded company has its own funding channels, as for whether the way is right or not, it doesn't seem that we should negotiate, and I am not ready to use these funds to invest in Dongning City."

"Since you are not ready to invest so much money into this childish plan, then what is there to talk about," Director Xu chased after him, "Young people, be careful, be pragmatic, don't always engage in some crooked ways."

"Hehe," Canglong smiled and said, "This is a letter of intent that my company has just signed with a foreign-funded company, which includes the company's investment in Dongning City, if you still think that my plan is naïve after reading it, then I will immediately withdraw from the investment in Dongning and let you fancy those enterprises."

Hearing this, Director Xu was a little strange, but he still picked up the contract and looked at it, but within a few minutes, the expression on his face suddenly turned colorful
