On June 6, 1992, Ye Kai took another plane and flew directly to Moscow. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This is the third time he has been to Moscow in a year, and it is really difficult to say what happened in his life.

To say that more than a year ago, his father Ye Ziping was kicked out of the Propaganda Department and came to Moscow to visit in a marginal way was a helpless move, then Ye Kai turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands into rain, stirring the general trend of the world, and pushing his father Ye Ziping to the altar in one fell swoop, which is the finishing touch.

This time when he went to Moscow, Ye Kai also brought a lot of people with him.

The first thing worth mentioning is Zhong Liyu, she followed Ye Kai this time, as Ye Kai's economic agent, to contact the magnates in Moscow, and finalize some asset acquisition plans made before, in fact, these things have been done a lot, this time to focus on the acquisition of several oil companies and oil fields.

Taking advantage of the imminent large-scale depreciation of the ruble, Ye Kai obviously planned to slaughter the Russians fiercely.

The other is Wang Luodan, the daughter of the commander of the Navy King, she appeared with Ye Kai as a naval technology expert, and she should have the opportunity to play a role at that time.

The other is Xie Junyu, as a registered disciple of the master, Xie Junyu's kung fu is extremely good, so she appeared as Ye Kai's security personnel.

It's just that Ye Kai also feels a little distressed about this, there is no him and Xie Junyu in the Shengwang New District, and Huo Donglai, secretary of the Party Working Committee, can be said to cover the sky with one hand, which makes Ye Kai feel a little unhappy, a little worried, and a little uneasy, but there is no other good way.

However, one thing is certain, that is, these big projects at hand have begun to settle in Shengwang New District, and once these extremely heavy enterprises settle down, then no one can curb the development of Shengwang New District.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of this matter, Ye Kai also specially entrusted the boss Ye Jianhuan to go to Jiangzhong to sit down.

With Ye Jianhuan, a great god, in charge, the people in the river did not dare to mess around.

Ye Kai couldn't be idle in his heart on the plane, he thought about a lot of questions, for Chen Zhaowu's matter, although it was said that it was difficult to do it because of Old Man Ye's order, but it was impossible to say that he didn't have any opinions in his heart.

Although Chen Zhaowu is indeed old, he is not as old as Old Man Ye, and now he is pretending to be old and confused, instructing the people below to mess around, what will happen in the future, no one knows, if he is allowed to live to be more than 100 years old, wouldn't it mean that he will harm the country for thirty or forty years?!

Ye Kai has objections to Old Man Ye's tolerant policy, but at present, he will not do it, otherwise it will be too bad to give the old man face, and how to get it will still have to fall on his sons and grandsons Chen Zhaowu.

If Chen Zhaowu's son, Chen Jianhao, deputy director of the General Political Department, can be brought down, it is estimated that Chen Zhaowu will really be angry, as for his two grandsons, they are already a pair of wasted people.

"What are you thinking?" Wang Luodan sat on Ye Kai's side, and when he saw him thoughtful, he asked.

Domestic airlines have also begun to introduce foreign cabin classification systems, they sit in the first class, the facilities are very complete, a few people sit in it, sleep when they should sleep, and those who don't sleep can listen to songs, or read books or something.

But Wang Luodan could see that Ye Kai's heart was more serious, and he didn't know what he was thinking about in his young mind?

It's just that judging from the fact that Commander Wang ordered his daughter to obey Ye Kai's command, Wang Luodan knew that Ye Kai's identity was definitely not ordinary, and what she already knew was that Ye Kai was a serious major general, and at the same time, he was also the director of the management committee at the deputy department level, which could only show that Ye Kai's ability was very terrifying.

"I'm thinking about Russia, in fact, it's only been a little more than a month since I last came to Russia, but from the feeling point of view, it seems that I have been away for a long time." Ye Kai replied.

Wang Luodan thought about it, and finally didn't understand the meaning of Ye Kai's words.

It wasn't until after they landed at the Moscow airport and drove the car onto the street that Wang Luodan somewhat understood what Ye Kai meant, in Ye Kai's description, the difference between here and a month ago was really big.

In January of this year, Russia began to implement "shock therapy" with the help of the Americans.

The main part of shock therapy, and the first step, is to liberalize prices.

The Russian Government stipulated that, from 2 January 1992, 90 per cent of the prices of consumer goods and 80 per cent of the prices of means of production would be liberalized. At the same time, restrictions on income growth were lifted, salaries for public servants were raised by 9 percent, pensioners were raised to 900 rubles per month, and family allowances and unemployment benefits were also raised.

In the first three months of price liberalization, it seems that the results were immediate, and the results were obvious, the long shopping queues were gone, the shelves were full of goods, and the Russians, who were accustomed to waiting in long queues with tickets, seemed to see the benefits of the reform.

But it didn't take long for prices to skyrocket like a kite with a broken string, and by April, the price of consumer goods had risen 65 times compared to December 1991. The government originally wanted to stabilize prices through state-run stores, but unexpectedly, black-market vendors and state-run store workers colluded to resell goods and make huge profits.

Due to the premature liberalization of fuel and raw material prices, the production costs of enterprises have increased sharply, and by June, the wholesale price of industrial products has risen 14 times, so high prices have made buyers daunted, the consumer market continues to be sluggish, and the demand is not strong and in turn inhibits supply, enterprises have compressed production, and market supply and demand have entered a dead cycle.

The second step of shock therapy is the introduction of fiscal and monetary "double tightening" policies and price reform almost simultaneously. The main reason for fiscal austerity is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Tax incentives are abolished, and all goods are subject to 28% value-added tax, while excise tax on imported goods is added. Along with the revenue increase measures, the government cut public investment, military spending, and office spending, included extrabudgetary funds in the federal budget, and restricted local governments from using bank loans to cover deficits.

Tight monetary policy, including raising the central bank's lending rate, establishing a reserve requirement system, and implementing loan limit management, is used to control money flows and curb inflation at the source.

This time, however, the government miscalculated.

Due to the excessive tax burden, the production of enterprises has shrunk further, and the number of unemployed has surged, and the government has had to increase relief subsidies and direct investment, and the fiscal deficit has risen instead of falling. Tight credit has led to a serious shortage of working capital for enterprises, mutual arrears between enterprises, and increasingly serious triangular debts.

Under these circumstances, the Russian government was forced to loosen the monetary system, issuing an additional 18 trillion rubles in 1992, 20 times the amount issued in 1991. Amid the roar of the money printing press, fiscal and monetary austerity was aborted.

The third step in shock therapy is large-scale privatization. According to the assessment of relevant experts, the total value of Russia's state-owned property is 5 trillion rubles, and the population is exactly 1.5 billion, so each Russian receives a 10,000 ruble privatized securities, which can be freely purchased with certificates.

However, what Ye Kai knew was that by the time the privatization was officially launched, it was already October 1992, and 10,000 rubles could have bought a car, but at that time it was only enough to buy a pair of high-end leather shoes.

Therefore, Russia's privatization measures have actually caused a large number of state-owned enterprises to fall into the hands of the privileged stratum and nouveau riche, and what they are most concerned about is not the long-term development of the enterprises, but the fact that they will change profits as soon as possible, and that the workers will not receive dividends and have no right to participate in decision-making.

As a result of shock therapy, Russia's GDP has been reduced by almost half, the total GDP is less than 1/10 of that of the United States, and the structure of the economy has also undergone major changes, with the fuel, electricity, and metallurgical industries becoming the key sectors of the national economy, accounting for about 1% of GDP, 50% of the total industrial product mix, and more than 70% of exports.

Foreign investment is reluctant to enter Russia, the standard of living of the population has plummeted, and the health and life expectancy of Russians have deteriorated.

What Ye Kai is concerned about is happening now, when foreign banks and financial institutions absorbed a large amount of ruble savings of Soviet private and corporate enterprises through various gray means with relatively high interest rates and a free cup of coffee, and foreign banks also used various gray means to extract ruble money from the Central Bank of the Soviet Union and Russia, state-owned banks and state-owned financial institutions (loans for various engineering projects, etc., similar to the current fake real estate mortgage loans in China, etc.).

After a sufficient amount of ruble ammunition from Soviet depositors and Soviet state banks, which were entirely borrowed, an operation began to weaken securities (stocks) in the market.

Now the popular saying on the street is, "Those bonds are the bonds (stocks) of state-owned enterprises that have no ability to pay dividends, and it is better to throw them out for cash than to keep them useless!" ”

As a result, the Russians believed it and began to sell bonds (stocks) one after another, and bonds (stocks) plummeted.

At the same time, foreign banks began to quietly privatize the bond purchase in the market, and the entire Russian state-owned enterprises were sold off.

Ye Kai's people are also operating the same thing, but their methods are more aggressive and targeted, and they directly target Russia's energy industry, use a lot of connections to borrow rubles, and then buy shares in Russia's energy industry.

If you calculate it carefully, the interest that needs to be paid after this year alone is as much as tens of billions of rubles, and even if you sell all of Ye Kai's assets, you can't afford to lose it.

It can be said that if the ruble will not depreciate significantly this year, then Ye Kai is really dead this time.

Of course, Ye Kai will not be stupid enough to go into battle shirtless, he used a lot of Major Bute's subordinates who have developed in Russia to operate this matter...
