"The people of Kazakhstan may not know that the construction plan of our capital is actually based on Almaty. China and Kazakhstan have a long border, and at the same time, they are also friendly neighbors with a strip of water in history...... "The Chinese ambassador is holding a glass of wine and maneuvering around a group of senior Kazakh officials.

Tian Peiwei is not wrong in saying this, in the fifties and sixties, the urban planning reference object of the imperial capital was indeed based on Almaty as the standard. This is the skill of speaking, and I didn't say what era the construction plan was, and the understanding of this sentence on both sides is one and two expressions.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the imperial capital was benchmarked against Almaty, which was the opinion of Soviet experts at that time, and the original planned population of the imperial capital was two or three million. Later developments deviated from the original intent of the plan, and apparently did not blame the Soviet specialists. Although Almaty is far behind the imperial capital in terms of scale, it has the support of the Soviet Union in terms of planning, and it is a relatively advanced multi-city center structure.

More than 3 million ethnic Kazakhs and ethnic Russians live in Almaty, and life was quite good during the Soviet era.

Hearing Ambassador Tian's praise of Kazakhstan, the guests in the reception hall were full of joy. The panic and inferiority caused by the collapse of the Soviet Union seem to have dissipated a lot.

Business blows to each other, this is not the time to talk about discipline.

"Kazakhstan is rich in resources, vast territory and excellent geographical location. China values the prospects of exchanges between the two countries, so it hopes to help Kazakhstan develop faster from the current predicament. For this reason, a group of outstanding and outstanding entrepreneurs in our country have come here with me this time, hoping to make friends with all the outstanding people of Kazakhstan. ”

As soon as he said this, Ambassador Tian raised his glass and signaled that his brief speech had come to an end.

And what responded to him was the enthusiasm that suddenly erupted in the banquet.

Behind Tian Peiwei, a group of old, young Chinese dressed in decent suits and looking rich and well-dressed rushed towards their prey like free-range chickens hearing a whistle.

"Editor-in-chief Umarhaz!"

"Hello, are you the editor-in-chief of the Almaty daily Umarhaz?"

A well-mannered Chinese man who looked to be in his early thirties greeted Umarhaz in fluent Russian.

"I have read your long poem about the train whistling in the mountains, and it is truly an impressive and excellent poem!

Umarhaz looked at the Chinese in front of him with a somewhat confused face, and asked in disbelief: "Hello, what do you call it? In China, can you actually see my works?"

"Oh, look at me, I'm so happy I forgot to introduce myself. I am the Chairman of the Board of Directors of China Newest Media Group, and my name is Xu Hongmin. ”

The visitor hurriedly handed over a business card and said with a look of admiration: "My Russian teacher once gave me a book of poems, which was a gift from a Soviet expert during the period when experts aided China. My favorite of that book is your poem "The Train Roars in the Mountains". ”

Speaking of this, Xu Hongmin simply began to recite aloud in Russian: "The train is whistling through the mountains, looking around at a loss, only the few night returnees in the shaking carriage are in a dream......

This is a poem that describes the social changes that changed the world during the period when the construction of the railway in Kazakhstan was in full swing in the fifties. Needless to say, of course, it is the proud work that Umar Haz has relied on to become famous. With the description of the poem, a picture of the historical process of industrialization slowly unfolded in the sound of recitation.

Hearing Xu Hongmin's emotional recitation performance, Umarhaz really believed that he had a "fan" who seemed quite generous in distant China.

Isn't it?

Look at this Xu Hongmin's outfit, with gold wire glasses with Zeiss lenses on his nose, a well-fitting suit on his body, and a gold-plated tie clip with diamonds pinned to his tie. The watch that is inadvertently exposed on the wrist, although I don't know what brand it is, is low-key in design and reveals exquisiteness.

Whoever looks at it, Xu Hongmin is a standard image of a successful person.

Kazakhs don't have many noses or eyes, and of course they can't see any "earthy" flavor of these people from the high-end image class of the Foreign Affairs Academy.

With such an entry point, Xu Hongmin and Umarhaz soon chatted eagerly.

“…… By the way, I heard that things don't seem to be doing well with the Almaty Daily these days. ”

After the time was almost right, Xu Hongmin decisively guided the topic in the direction he needed: "Teacher Umarhaz, with your literary literacy, you can't even guarantee a basic life, this is really undeserved!"

"This, the difficulties of the Almaty daily are only temporary. Umarhaz shook his head a little embarrassedly: "The situation in Kazakhstan will be better, and the difficulties that the newspaper is currently facing will naturally pass." ”

Xu Hongmin groaned and blinked: "I know that your son Shabutan has recently opened an advertising agency, maybe I can ask him to help with some business, if I can publish some advertisements for Chinese companies in the Almaty Daily, it will be of great help to me." ”

"This ......"

Umarhaz seemed hesitant, but the thought of Chabutan had invested all his family's savings in an advertising agency, but as a result, he had not received a single order for months, if the company had not improved before the budget was spent......

Someone else's business always seems simple, but people who have worked for the CPSU all their lives would think that doing business is so risky?

Between the fact that his family was living on the streets and slightly violating his own principles, Umarhaz happily chose the latter.

The CPSU that established the principles is gone, and it still adheres to the principle of fart.

"Okay, I'll get Chabutan to contact you. Umarhazi put away Xu Hongmin's business card with great importance.

In fact, all kinds of "cooperation", "business", "equity participation" and even "acquisition" behaviors have happened a lot at the reception of the Chinese Embassy.

The Chinese came prepared and intended to enter the Kazakh economy in a big way, and such a signal was unmistakably conveyed to everyone present.

Of course, all this can't escape Victor and Matthew, Victor's sense of smell is keen, and Matthew has seen more.

"The Chinese are crazy!"

Matthew was holding the wine, he had just eliminated a plate of Texas Grilled Chicken, and then he picked his teeth and gathered with Victor.

"In the case of Kazakhstan, they dare to invest such a large amount of resources? Aren't they afraid that there will be some political turmoil and they will lose all their money when the time comes?"

As an important passage to the Eurasian continent, Kazakhstan's geographical location is undoubted, coupled with its rich resources, of course, it has high investment prospects. However, what is the reason why Nazarbayev went around in circles in the international community and only invited back one international investor, Shevron?

To put it bluntly, the policy risk is too high!

After Su Dongpo, the political situation of the former union republics was a mess. From the one-party rule of the CPSU to the multi-party system, as well as the reconstruction of the state system and the impact of Western capital, etc., the political arena in many countries has been in a state of intense turmoil.

This trend is now spreading rapidly from the member states to the Warsaw Pact camps in Eastern Europe, and it is intensifying.

Even if you take a risk to invest, maybe the political mountain that approved your investment today will be overturned tomorrow, and then your political enemies will not only declare the investment illegal, but also ask Warcraft to invest and detain your staff, waiting for you to ransom it with money.

Anyway, the liberals who came to power were more shameless than the other, and under the banner of King Muda, what they did was legal.

Of course, the illegal ones are hanging from the street lamps.

As a result, although the current political situation in Kazakhstan is relatively stable, no one knows how long this stability will last and how strong it will be able to maintain the power of the central government. The policy risk of investment is unacceptably high immediately after a few failures.

In this context, when the political wind in Kazakhstan has not yet completely stabilized, where did the Chinese have the courage to invest so many resources in Kazakhstan?

These Chinese companies are not Shevron!

With this self-confidence and the capital, Shevron believes that it is impossible for any force to come to power and kick out one of the bosses of the US government. But what do the Chinese have to rely on to protect the safety of their investments in Kazakhstan?

Faced with Matthew's problem, Victor was also inexplicable.

"Although I have heard of it before, it is ...... to enter the Kazakhstan market on such a large scale"

Victor knows better than Matthew what the situation in Kazakhstan is now, so it is really beyond his imagination that the Chinese dare to make such a big bet.

"Check, find out all the actions of these Chinese in Almaty. Either way, be sure to find out what they're trying to do!"

Because Ayiman was by his side, Matthew and Victor spoke English, so they didn't have to go out of their way to avoid it anymore.

"Something is wrong with these Chinese, and no matter how well they dress, they can't hide their poor sour taste." ”

Matthew is really well-informed, and the packaging of the Kazakhs who can deceive is revealed in his eyes. He took a sip of the vodka in his hand and snorted.

"With such a lot of effort to deceive people, it is impossible for the Chinese to really come to Kazakhstan to do good deeds, right?"
