Zhang Tianpeng smiled: "When the time comes, you will know, other people's ways are not good, but brother and I are on this road, there are many opportunities for this, all the people we deal with are aristocrats from the former tsarist period, and these people in the Soviet Union were frustrated at that time, and now these people are shaking again, and they are rushing to take out the old foundation of the family to dry, thinking about **** getting rich in exchange for two money to spend, but in fact, most of these people are good mallets, and it is often not possible to use one-tenth of the actual price of the thing itself to get the goods back from their hands, and the lower the price of killing, the more it shows that we are patriotic." , we can be regarded as avenging our ancestors, aren't we? ”
Yang Junhu lay in bed for three days and was basically cured. When he was discharged from the hospital, it took a lot of time because the guy got better too quickly, and the doctors felt a little incredulous and worried that he would not recover well. Fortunately, Yang Junhu's condition is really good, and after this big guy casually carried the big iron window of the ward to the duty room with one hand, the doctor immediately approved his discharge.
Zhang Tianpeng felt that he should take Ye Haodong to Russia for a walk first, and Ye Haodong also felt that it was necessary to go on a trip to see the world first. At the beginning of March of the 2000th year, Ye Haodong took Yang Junhu and Polygang and Zhang Tianpeng to embark on the international train bound for Moscow.
Along the way, Zhang Tianpeng basked in what he knew about the history of Sino-Russian trade. From the "fallen master" era in the first ten years to today, they are now engaged in Chinese businessmen's trade. From the folk who exchanged daily necessities for tanks to a bottle of liquor for a box of bullets; From Mou XX's cans for planes to his own pride of cigarettes for oil.
The railway from Beijing to Manzhouli to Moscow is more than 9,000 kilometers long. The international train runs once a week, six days and six nights, and this international train is the main means of transportation for those international "fallen masters" at that time. And in the eyes of the "fallen masters", this route is as familiar as a country road back to the hometown.
As soon as the train entered the territory of Russia, at every station, the "fallen masters" flocked down with down jackets and leather jackets, and the platform was already crowded with Russians waiting to buy them. These "fallen masters" have made a lot of money, and these legends have been passed on by word of mouth after returning to China, which has a very incendiary effect. For a time, the Sino-Russian border set off a **** for the whole people to engage in border trade. From the initial Heilongjiang "inverted master" and Beijing "inverted master", it developed mainly to Fujian and Zhejiang. It's just that the hardships are only known to these international "masters" themselves. The route of Sino-Russian non-governmental trade was opened by them with sweat and even blood, and the story during it was thrilling, and the people concerned looked back on the past and felt extremely complicated. Almost all of the people who have walked on the road of the fallen father's career have encountered robberies, and some have died.
In Moscow, Russia's largest Chinese goods market, Astai, although the appearance is shabby, the rent is extremely high. The annual rent and various "benefit fees" and "protection fees" of the store built by two waste containers are about 500,000 yuan in total. However, compared to the profits of business, these "small money to send Russians" are no longer in the calculations of the "bad masters". The business has grown bigger, and the money has become more profitable, and the difficult thing is to bring the money back to China. At that time, the seizure of US dollars carried by Chinese merchants became an important task for Russian customs. Because at that time, the train was the only channel, and the predecessors could only risk taking thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars back home with them. As a result, every time I enter and leave Russia, it becomes a kind of carnival-like catharsis. As soon as the train entered Russia, the people who entered the dining car were all Chinese "inverted" predecessors, because every time they arrived at a Russian station, the goods would be immediately out of stock. And as soon as the train left the Russian border and entered China, the "fallen masters" breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good to go home!" ”
The "fallen masters" smashed open the door to Sino-Russian trade. In the past year, the change in the rules has gradually reduced the people to illegal traders, and the road is now basically officially closed to these people. The rest is that officials like my brother have fallen. Now there is no such dual-track system, and there is no need for any approval documents or anything like that, and free trade is emphasized. Let's change our body, and now we are called Chinese businessmen. My brother opened a Pengcheng trading company in Moscow, and its main business is Sino-Russian trade, except for arms and drugs, we buy and sell everything.
Zhang Tianpeng's gushing introduction opened Ye Haodong's eyes and gave him some new ideas.
In the past, so many Chinese goods were sold in the past, which was bound to have an impact on the local economy of Russia, and the good and bad Chinese businessmen were uneven, and counterfeit and shoddy products inevitably flowed into a lot, which was easy to find an excuse for the Russian government to implement trade protection. There can be more and deeper contacts with the Russian government, and if this thing is done, the money will be immeasurable!
The more Ye Haodong thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was extremely feasible, and now the Russian side is transitioning from a political pattern of oligarchic chaos to a relatively stable political pattern, as long as he bets on this treasure, the matter of building a factory is not a problem!
In the next few days in Moscow, Ye Haodong did not go out to enjoy several famous attractions in Moscow. He never figured out where the Kremlin, Red Square and St. Basil's Cathedral were, but these days he has a basic understanding of the latest developments in Russian politics. A name that will shine all over the world in the future has been frequently appearing in newspapers and mainstream media in recent times, Vladimir? Vladimirovich? Putin. A current Russian prime minister who is good at using public opinion guidance. He did not join any political party, and in the arena of power games, his young and hard-line political ideas of governing the country by the rule of law made many people both optimistic about him and worried about him. Ye Haodong asked Zhang Tianpeng's Russian female secretary Kuzuova, who is proficient in Chinese, to translate reports and transcripts about Putin for him every day. He was anxious to know the philosophy and preferences of the man who was about to take power in Russia. He is not doing all this in the hope of bribing Putin, he wants to predict the future direction of Russia's economic policy, find out the potential stocks that will develop in the same camp as Putin, and at the same time find suitable projects and business models for the plans he will implement.
Ayeseyev is currently a Commissioner of the Moscow Press Administration and a permanent commissioner of the Moscow Police Force. It is not difficult to see from the recent news reports the political leanings of this high-ranking Russian official, who is only 39 years old and occupies a key position. Ye Haodong finally locked the target of his friendship on this person. He's going to build factories here, he's going to build his power here, and he's going to have the support of powerful people.
Zhang Tianpeng's special identity and Pengcheng Trade's strong trade ability make him a small figure in this city. Pengcheng Trading Department Store and Pengcheng Export Consignment Company each have two offices in the city that represent two extremes. The tall and splendid Pengcheng Trade is a famous Chinese high-end commodity sales center in Moscow, located in the commercial center of Moscow. In contrast, Pengcheng Export Consignment is committed to a small shop on a nondescript commercial street in Moscow's slums. People who are familiar with Zhang Tianpeng and those who are not familiar with Zhang Tianpeng think that Pengcheng Trade Department Store is his main cash cow, and no one can imagine that in fact, Zhang Tianpeng's most profitable cornucopia is actually that inconspicuous little face.
In the luxurious living room with a hole in the face of the inconspicuous little door, Ayeseyev was dressed in casual clothes, with a cigar in his hand, and a professional smile without the slightest emotion on his face, carefully looking at the young Chinese sitting opposite.
"I don't read much, so I don't have much culture, and I haven't learned my native dialect yet, so please forgive me for not being able to talk to you in your country."
"Where, Your Excellency is too modest, how can a person who can become a partner of a big trader like Zhang at a young age be an uneducated person, I think you are not knowledgeable, and you are self-versatil." The slightly strange but already pure Chinese language came fluently from the mouth of this blonde and blue-eyed young high-ranking Russian official.
was praised by a golden-haired and blue-eyed foreign devil so ****, Ye Haodong's first thought was the arms dealer Victor who had seen the Chinese version of the service, both of whom were so proficient in Chinese culture. In comparison, this Ayesyev is superior. Idioms are good for these foreigners to know, and they are very rare to be used correctly.
"I didn't expect Your Excellency to have such a deep attainment in our culture, since this is the case, let's communicate in Huaxia."
Ayeseyev spread his hands: "No problem, I am an old friend with Zhang, my wife's father has a lot of trade dealings with Zhang's trading company, you were introduced by Zhang, I believe that the young man who can surprise me in Zhang's mouth will never let me down, right?" ”。
Ye Haodong laughed heartily, took out a box from under the table, turned the table to Ayesyev and handed it over with his own hands. Said: "A small greeting gift, not a tribute, please look at it first, if you are satisfied, we will be friends and partners in the future." ”
