Chapter 591: Persuasion

The president of Russia, the leader of the world's second-largest power system, stood in the center of the living room, smiling at Li Zhiyang and them.

“a#￥%……※*|”

Pu Ting looked at Li Zhiyang who came in with a smile and said a word in Russian, but where could Li Zhiyang and James know what Pu Ting meant.

At this time, Kozlov hurriedly walked up to the two and translated for them.

"Mr. President said, welcome both of you"

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, President Putu"

Or James is well-informed, after all, he has seen a lot of dignitaries in the United States or Europe before, so he still knows a lot about etiquette.

Although at first, he was also shocked by the appearance of this Pu Ting, but he immediately came to his senses, so he stepped forward, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Na Pu Ting.

Kozlov, at this time, hurriedly walked to the front and translated it into Russian, and Pu Ting listened to Kozlov's translation while laughing with James. Rockefeller shakes hands.

“a#￥%……※*（”

Pu Ting spoke Russian again, and then Kozlov hurriedly translated to James.

"Mr. President said that Uncle David. When Mr. Rockefeller came to the Soviet Union to meet Gorbachev, he was fortunate to be there, and he was quite impressed by Uncle Ling."

"Haha, yes, then we have some origins."

James laughed and gossiped, then shook hands vigorously with Nap

After James and Pu listened to the greetings, Li Zhiyang stepped forward, Kozlov hurriedly introduced Li Zhiyang to Pu Ting, Pu Wen did not look down on Li Zhiyang because he was an unknown person, but shook hands with a smile.

Li Zhiyang smiled and didn't say much, this general is not tall, but his body is very acquainted, and it seems that it is the previous KGB experience, which laid the foundation for him

It's really unimaginable that such a character is actually the Yuan of the world's second most powerful country

After a few people finished greeting each other, Pu Ting invited a few people to sit down in the sand in the living room

When Li Zhiyang came in, he glanced around roughly, but because Pu Ting was waiting in the living room at the time, he didn't take a large number of the room very carefully

At this time, after taking a seat, he began to look around a few times, after all, he still had a bit of curiosity about the president's official residence

This is a typical European parlor, with wallpaper on the walls, a large crystal chandelier on the roof, and a large fireplace in front of it

There are some knick-knacks on the side of the fireplace, which look inconspicuous, but Li Zhiyang knows that those are very likely to be some antiques, just like the peach wood cloth sand made under their buttocks, it is very likely that they are the things left over from the original Sha Wang

At this time, Pu Ting was talking to that James, and it seemed that Pu Ting was also this James. Rockefeller was the main figure in the meeting, while Li Zhiyang was merely a foil, and Kozlov was eager to act as a translator between the two.

For a while, Li Zhiyang became the most idle person, but he was not in a hurry, he knew where the two sides were still testing each other

I haven't really gotten to the point yet

Sure enough, after a while, James became a little impatient, and he frequently glanced at Nakozlov, and then gave Li Zhiyang another look, and then began to speak.

"Honorable President Puting, I believe that you should know the meaning of our meeting with you this time, and I would like to ask you what you think about the Kissingkan iron ore mine that we will open together?"

James didn't hide it, so he simply asked directly, otherwise this general Tai Chi technique is too high, if it continues to talk like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk about the right point if I talk about dawn

"Well, is that iron mine honest, if it is opened, it will be of great benefit to the Russian people, it will be able to bring tax revenues, and it will be able to bring jobs to the Russian people...... |

The general listening is full of political tone, where there is empty talk.

But Li Zhiyang here, listening to it, suddenly had a bad premonition, I'm afraid that if he can't say a few words, this general listening president will say that 'but'

Sure enough, it didn't take a few words to speak.

"But, Mr. James, you have to know that there are conservative forces in Russia at present, and they oppose the excessive involvement of foreign capital in Russia's domestic economic construction. Especially on the project that has not developed resources, they believe that this will be detrimental to Russia's national security, especially such a large iron mine, the exploration of this Kissingkan iron ore mine shows that this is a world-class large iron mine, he should be the wealth of the Russian people, if it is intervened by foreign capital, will it damage the interests of the Russian people? ”

The words of the general hearing are completely official, completely official

When Li Zhiyang and James came again, they all knew that this Pu Ting was not a person to deal with, and now this Pu Ting is here to set up a ** formation for them, and no one knows what this guy's idea is?

"President Pu, we are friends of the Russian people, please believe us, we are only here to do business, we will not participate in Russia's own politics, our cooperation will only bring benefits to the Russian people, and there is no harm."

Li Zhiyang, who had been silent, finally spoke up, and his words were also very official

In fact, everyone knows that Pu Ting will definitely want to get something from this project, and he is not an honest person anyway, but this old boy does not say what he wants for a day, and Li Zhiyang and their Kissingkan iron ore mine will not start work for a day

So first of all, he must satisfy this appetite for listening, and then force him to say what he wants.

At this time, Kozlov had already translated Li Zhiyang's words to Napu, and Pu Ting also noticed Li Zhiyang at this time, and then he felt that this Li Zhiyang was not a follower, but seemed to be more like a participant

"I also know that the opening of this iron mine is very good for the Russian people, and it is also very good for Russia's taxes. But now in the parliament, there is a lot of opposition to foreign investment, especially in these resource projects, so I am also under a lot of pressure, and this year, it is the time of the election of the president and the Duma of Russia, as you may know, and now the outside world is saying that I will amend the constitution and extend the term of office of the president, so the opposition to me is very high now."

Pu Ting told Li Zhiyang about some of the domestic situation in Russia, and then he had a sad face.

Who doesn't know, then the Russian Duma is your hall? Those oppositionists, even if they are happy, in fact, in the end, it is not a matter for you to listen to the words of adults?

And it's obviously this kid, who is reluctant to give up his rights, why is he still aggrieved here?

Li Zhiyang listened to this politician and slandered him, and it seems that he is quite an outstanding politician, and he really has to be cheeky

"Haha, I think I listen to the president, even if the constitution is amended and the presidential term is extended, what can be done? After all, during your term of office, Russia's economic and social development is obvious to all, and it was you who single-handedly put an end to the chaotic situation of the Yeltsin era and allowed the Russian people to live a good life. What right do they have to object? ”

Li Zhiyang said indignantly at this time, his virtue at this time was exactly the same as when Broad bet on Pu listened

Now the whole world knows that even if Pu Ting steps down, he will not relax his grip on Russia, but no one knows in what way Pu Ting will continue to control Russia.

Will it be to amend the constitution and extend the presidential term, or will it step down completely, and then go into seclusion behind the scenes and remotely control the president?

Now many Western speculators are studying this issue, because they also need allies in Russian politics

But at this point, Li Zhiyang, who has been reborn, has an advantage over those people, he knows that after this, he will not be the president of Russia, but he will serve as the prime minister of Russia, I believe this, many people will not think of it

Therefore, when others are still wavering about the future investment in the rectification of Russia, Li Zhiyang has already firmly chosen his investment object

James and Kozlov, as well as Pu Ting, are all looking at Li Zhiyang with a strange look at this time, James and Kozlov are because, they are also betting on Pu Ting, but I don't know what will happen to this Pu Ting after the change?

And Pu Ting has a good impression of Li Zhiyang's words, after all, everyone likes sycophants, and such a loud sycophant, Pu Ting is really the first time to meet it

"And, in fact, even if you are no longer the president of Russia, can you continue to waste your spare heat in other positions? I think that if you are no longer the president of Russia, can you become the prime minister of Russia, so that you can continue to contribute your talents to Russia, and continue to guide the Russian people on the road to happiness. ”

Li Zhiyang's words, if he usually felt disgusting, but now for the sake of that big iron mine, even if he is numb, he has to say it.

Li Zhiyang's words stunned the few people sitting opposite.

James and Kozlov were a little dumbfounded, how could this Li Zhiyang say that? But his idea is really new, isn't it?

Isn't it a good choice to be a prime minister? You must know that the Russian constitution does not stipulate that the outgoing president is not allowed to serve as the country's prime minister

This is indeed a very good way to invest in politics

And Pu Ting was even more shocked, what is the origin of this Li Zhiyang, how can he know his calculations?

You must know that most of the speculation in the outside world is that he will amend the constitution and continue to rely on the position of president, and now in Russia and internationally, there are indeed many people who oppose this, and they all say that this will undermine the democratic process in Russia

But their own thoughts, how can those people guess? Not to be the president, to be the prime minister, this method is also a trick that he took a lot of effort to come up with

There are not many people who know it at present, how did Li Zhiyang guess this?

Can't you help but be surprised by Li Zhiyang's idea?

"And now a world-class economic crisis is spreading from the United States, I believe it will soon affect the Russian economy, at this time there is a change of president, I believe he will also have a headache for Russia's economy at that time, in case the government formed by this president, if the prestige is not high, it will easily cause dissatisfaction in Russia, or chaos, so I think that the president, who is very prestigious and talented in the psychology of the Russian people, should stay in the future Russian government."

Li Zhiyang was talking at this time with foaming at the mouth, and even a little radiant, feeling that this kid was not like a businessman at this time, but more like a politician who could fool

"So, if Mr. Pu Ting, if you want to become the prime minister of Russia at that time, we will provide you with a considerable amount of public relations expenses."

Li Zhiyang's words, when they get here, can be regarded as the end.

But in the living room, there was silence for a while, and Pu Ting changed to his usual expressionless look, while James and Kozlov were dumbfounded at this time.

As soon as Li Zhiyang saw this situation, he hurriedly gave James a look, this James is also a smart person, and at this time he already understood what Li Zhiyang meant just now, so his mind turned and he immediately followed.

"That is, I also very much agree with Zhiyang's point of view, if the time comes to listen to the president, you as prime minister, when the time comes, I will contact some Western news media and ask them to comment on the election situation in Russia from the perspective of fairness."

James's words are already very explicit, what he means is that if Pu Ting provides support to them in this project, then Li Zhiyang and he will give financial support and publicity, and build momentum for Pu Ting to serve as prime minister

You must know that some of the news media in Russia are very much influenced by the international news media.

And he also knows that the fact that he wants to be prime minister, whether in Russia or internationally, will definitely cause an uproar*.

At that time, his reputation will definitely suffer considerable losses, which makes Pu Ting, who has always had a good reputation since he became president, a little unacceptable

But if there is a person like James, who has a huge influence on the Western media, then when he runs for prime minister, it will not cause too much controversy in the international community, and then there will not be so much trouble at home, which will be of great benefit to him as prime minister

These two people are quite sincere

"Well, thank you for your support of me, but let's postpone this matter for now."

Pu Ting said very calmly, there was no joy or sadness on his face, he was worthy of being an old fox who had been rolling in the political arena for many years, and his acting skills were first-class.

"About this Kissingan iron ore mine, I think it is still very necessary to open now, originally I have been hesitating, but just now Mr. Li put forward a point, that is, affected by the economic crisis in the United States, Russia's economy may fall into a downturn in the near future, then we need a new economic growth point, now your Kissingkan iron ore development plan, I think it is the right time to put forward. This will be of great benefit to Russia's economy in the future, especially when Russia's economy is in trouble, and the opening of this iron mine may become the motivation for Russia's economic recovery."

Pu Ting continued with a serious expression.

But as soon as he spat out like this, he choked on the joy of Li Zhiyang, James and Kozlov, who were sitting opposite

It seems that finally, the old fox was moved by what he said, and he finally relented

Originally, James and Kozlov also planned to sacrifice a little more interests at that time, give this general hearing more shares, and then get him to agree to support the opening of this Kissingan iron mine.

They also know that there is no shortage of money in Puting, and this negotiation may be a very time-consuming and labor-intensive negotiation.

But who would have thought that Li Zhiyang really found another way to make a fuss about the political future of Puting, and at once, he grabbed the heart of this Puting and made him feel relieved

Both of them were feeling a little ecstatic right now

Listening to this pass, the high-sounding words are actually the opening of the Kissingan iron ore mine

"However, Mr. James, we in Russia are not yet a member of the WTO, which makes some of our companies, when trading with foreign companies, especially European and American companies, not enjoy some treatment, and are at a disadvantage in the competition, I hope that the WTO can approve it as soon as possible, and we will join the WTO, so that our businessmen can enjoy equal treatment as soon as possible."

As soon as James heard this, he was relieved, not afraid that he would want it, but he was afraid that he wouldn't want it

He knew that in fact, the WTO was led by the Rockefeller family, just as the Morgan family actually dominated the World Bank.

So at this time, this benefit of joining the WTO, of course, has to be asked for by this James, who made him a very important member of the Rockefeller family

"No problem, but listen to the president, I think, you see, after you become prime minister, isn't it better to achieve it? Russia joined the WTO after you became prime minister, so isn't that even more convincing to the Russian people?"
