443. Advice
Night.
In the living room on the second floor of Lao Guo's house, it was late at night.
Everyone else in the family slept, but there were still three people sitting in this small living room, all of them were full of alcohol, and their words and deeds were also drunk.
On the glass coffee table in front of the small fabric sofa where the three of them were seated, there were several plates of appetizers, such as peanuts, pig's trotters in sauce, orchid beans, etc.
There are also a few empty wine bottles next to it.
Guo Yongkun can't remember how much wine he drank today, in short, there are many, many things.
Foreign appearances have also appeared.
When I came back from the hotel in the afternoon, I fell before I walked into the house, but the eldest brother helped him return his clothes, because the rain outside has not stopped.
However, as the saying goes, people are in good spirits when they are happy.
Drinking depends on the mood, and when you are in a good mood, the amount of alcohol will skyrocket.
Although his body is a little out of control now, at least his mind is still clear.
The other two are naturally Li Youguang and Guo Yongnian.
Li Youguang's state is not much different from Guo Yongkun, and the two have always had the same amount of alcohol.
Only Guo Yongnian has a lot of money, so his brain is a little dizzy, and nothing else.
The three of them hadn't drunk much now, and were mostly chatting.
Li Youguang talked about what he had experienced in the Soviet Union over the past year or so in a disorderly manner, and what he thought of and what he said.
Even if some of the logical relationships are confusing, you can still hear the thrilling feeling.
For example, one night, his villa on the outskirts of Moscow was invaded by a gang of outlaws, and the gangsters' double-barreled shotguns were put on his head.
If the trigger is pulled, where can he Li Youguang still be here now, his head would have become a rotten watermelon.
Fortunately, he was able to bend and stretch, and he was not a miser, he tried his best to please him, and he also gave away the millions of dollars hidden in the villa, so he escaped by luck.
"No wonder you have so many bodyguards with you now. Guo Yongnian said with emotion.
"Hmm. On the eve of the collapse of the Soviet Union, many people went crazy, and materials became more and more scarce, and we were rich foreign businessmen living there, and we became fragrant and sweet in the eyes of some people. ”
Li Youguang himself sighed.
Outsiders only see his current scenery, but they don't know that everything he has now is in exchange for his life.
Opportunities and risks are always proportional.
He now realizes that whoever can do it to his level can risk his life. I can't say that I can't move because I'm rich all my life, but at least I can't be a poor person.
However, how many people can really do it?
Even if it were him, if there was another such opportunity in front of him, he might back down.
At the same time, he also understands one thing: the richer the person, the more he spares his life.
His current wealth can't be spent in his lifetime, and there is really no need to use his life as a bargaining chip.
"Xiaoguang, how much money did you make from the Soviet Union?" asked Guo Yongnian with interest.
"Well, Brother Nian, it's not that I sell Guanzi, I really haven't counted much, there are accounts on the financial side, and I have been doing sweeping work for a while, and I am busy with things one after another. Anyway...... There are a lot of them, and ordinary people should not be able to spend them all in ten lifetimes. ”
"Ten lifetimes?" Guo Yongnian was shocked, his eyes widened.
"That's right. Li Youguang said with a smile. "But no matter what, I can have today, all thanks to Brother Kun. ”
Guo Yongkun smiled and waved his hand, "It's not that exaggerated, it's mainly about yourself, do you remember, when you were going to the Soviet Union, I didn't agree at first, if you don't have the determination to go out and the courage to face danger, even if others show you the way, it's useless."
"Why don't I go, for example, because I'm afraid of death! ”
Li Youguang smiled, but he couldn't refute it.
"But Brother Kun, let's not talk about anything else between our two brothers, my money is your money, your business is my business, the 350 million yuan from Sister Huihui's side, I will transfer it tomorrow. ”
Guo Yongkun looked at him deeply, and sure enough, he didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand.
Two brothers, two slaps slapped heavily in the air, and then clasped tightly together.
......
Following.
Li Youguang fulfilled his promise and transferred a sum of foreign exchange converted into RMB at the current exchange rate to the Bank of China branch in New York through an international bank.
Soon after, Guo Yongkun received a call from Lao Wang from the capital.
"Yongkun, I just received a notice that the money has arrived. There was an unconcealable joy in Lao Wang's voice.
If this matter is settled, the rest of the problems will be taken care of.
Guo Yongkun held the eldest brother's hand and tightened it slightly, this small detail betrayed his calm expression at the moment.
"Hmm. You talk to them right away and bring my sister back as soon as possible. ”
"Okay, don't worry, our promise has been fulfilled, and the next thing is relatively simple, I'll go to them now. ”
"Good work. ”
"Do we still need to say this, wait for my good news. ”
After ending the call with Lao Wang, Guo Yongkun used the landline in the office to make a phone call to the United States.
Now that the money matter has been resolved, the assets of New Century Real Estate in the United States naturally do not need to be sold again - it is destined to be a loss-making transaction.
Davis was so happy that he probably jumped up and stammered.
"Knock, knock. ”
There was a knock at the door.
"Enter. ”
"Brother Kun, Jianlibao is getting better and better now. Li Youguang walked in from outside the door with two foreigner bodyguards with a smile.
He arrived half an hour ago, but he didn't come over immediately, but went to walk around the factory.
"You can't go back more and more, right?" Guo Yongkun quipped.
Invite him to sit on the couch by the wall.
Then make kung fu tea, and the two brothers drank and chatted.
"What about you, what are your plans next?" asked Guo Yongkun.
"When the New Year is over, go back to Russia. ”
Guo Yongkun frowned and asked, "Why are you going back, there is something that hasn't been dealt with?"
"Not really. After Li Youguang shook his head, he restrained his smile, looked at him, and said, "Brother Kun, I should develop in Russia in the future." ”
"Oh, why?" Guo Yongkun was surprised.
It's not that Russia is bad, but that China's current economic situation is very good, and the second southern tour, which is of great historical significance, has just ended, and now the newspapers and news are full of news about this.
The leader's important speech has completely pulled the people out of the shadow caused by the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the timid business environment, and now the whole country is full of excitement and enthusiasm.
It is said that in the industrial and commercial bureau in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, the business license cannot be issued now, and there are not so many blank documents at all, so they have to be seconded from other areas nearby.
Countless Chinese people have gone to the sea to do business, and countless private enterprises have emerged.
China is about to usher in a golden age of rapid economic development.
And these, Guo Yongkun remembered telling Li Youguang last night.
He has so much money now that he can't use it at all, Guo Yongkun conservatively estimates that he is worth the Chen family in two port cities, and he has a lot to invest in any industry.
"Mainly I have bought a lot of companies in Russia, such as a four-star hotel, which can be ordered for only 1 million yuan.
I see.
"Of course. ”
Just kidding, a four-star hotel can get it for 1 million yuan, which is no different from giving it away for free.
How can you not take a plate if you have a chance?
As soon as he said this, Guo Yongkun understood.
"So you're not only worth a lot of money now, but you're also a proper Russian capital tycoon?" he quipped.
"I don't blame you for that. ”
Li Youguang said with a smile: "Now many officials know that I have money, and they are desperately stuffing those companies and enterprises into my hands, and I still don't accept them for the things that make a head? Besides, now that they have been capitalized, there is nothing wrong with being a capitalist." ”
Since this is the case, Li Youguang wants to continue to return to Russia for development, and Guo Yongkun is completely understandable.
After thinking about it, he said, "Xiaoguang, I give you a piece of advice, you must remember. ”
Seeing that his tone was so serious, Li Youguang also sat upright, put on a serious listening appearance, and motioned for him to continue.
No one in the world knew the horror of the man before him better than him, and his words were as prophesied.
Therefore, whenever his advice is given, Li Youguang will never doubt him, and will implement it as an oracle.
"There are two things you should not do when doing business in Russia. First, don't touch the energy industry, and second, don't try to monopolize one industry. ”
Li Youguang frowned after hearing this.
"Brother Kun, I can understand the monopoly, this thing is a crime in many countries. But why can't energy be touched?"
He asked because one of the Russian companies he bought happened to be a small oil company.
"Because energy is the backbone of Russia's economy. ”
Guo Yongkun said: "Don't look at the trend of capitalization in Russia now, but after all, it is in transition from a socialist country, and it will never be able to achieve pure capitalization like Western countries."
"So this kind of thing that involves the lifeblood of the country's economy, the government will never let it easily fall into private hands, not to mention that you are still a foreigner over there, and it is not too simple for people to rectify you.
"The thing you said last night is actually very right, don't be too greedy, you must know how to make trade-offs, only earn what you can earn, what you shouldn't earn, and don't care how tempting it is, don't touch it. ”
Li Youguang muttered to himself, pondered these words carefully, nodded after a while, and said, "Okay, Brother Kun, I know, I listen to you." ”
"Hmm. ”
Guo Yongkun nodded with a smile, suddenly thought of something, and added: "One more point, I know that you have a lot of friends with many officials in Russia, and as for how to get acquainted, I don't know it in my heart."
"But you have to remember that now that Russia has become independent, it is no longer the smoky miasma environment of the past, and it is naturally better to govern when the plate is smaller, and try not to use bribery to engage in relations anymore.
"This kind of thing is to bury mines, if nothing happens, if you really want to have an accident, you will inevitably be involved. ”
Li Youguang listened thoughtfully.
If someone else said this, he would have to spray the other party in the face.
With the current environment in Russia, how to make profits without engaging in relations, ten officials and nine greedy.
If he does not go to the "activity", others will definitely go, and in this way, it is inevitable that he will lose a lot of benefits.
But what Guo Yongkun said, he didn't dare not listen.
"Okay, Brother Kun, I understand. ”
Guo Yongkun raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and he could only say that, and if he was more detailed, he would reveal his secret.
You can't tell Li Youguang that there will be an emperor who will come to power in the near future, and the first thing he will do after taking power is to clean up the oligarchs, right?
There is no mistake
