After explaining the detailed process of the collapse of the Soviet Union, Mr. Liu was silent for a moment, and then sighed deeply and said: "What a powerful Soviet union fell apart overnight, and I happened to be in Moscow this month, when the leaders of the three former Soviet republics signed an agreement in the Belovezh Forest in western Belarus to declare the establishment of the Commonwealth of Independent States. This agreement www.biquge.info called the "Soviet Death Certificate". At that time, all kinds of political gossip were flooding the streets, the economic situation was deteriorating, and ordinary Russians were at a loss for what to do about the future. In the case of a shortage of supplies, people have to spend a lot of energy on buying daily necessities, to buy some non-staple food to go to the queue early, before the store opens, no one tells you whether there is or not, waiting for a long time to wait for the door to open, maybe only a few people can buy. Just after the New Year in 1992, the Russian government announced the liberalization of prices. In the case of commodity shortages, prices are like wild horses that are out of control. After listening to Mr. Liu's words, Brother Chao nodded and said, "Yes, when I just graduated from university, I accompanied the group to Moscow once, and it was also when the Soviet Union had just collapsed, when the store was empty and there was nothing, but now it is much better." ”

After taking a sip of tea, Mr. Liu continued: "Well, this is also the contribution of the inverted masters, not to mention our Chinese inverted masters, there are many Russians with flexible brains who have made a fortune in this situation." When I was a visiting scholar at the university, I met a young lecturer named Andrei, who often talked to me, learned a lot about China from me, and also learned some simple Chinese from me. At that time, many Russians were fashionable to wear Chinese trench coats and cold-proof clothing, and I also brought some with me, and Andrei helped me sell them, and he made some money himself. At that time, the government had no money, and it was difficult to even pay salaries in the university, so Andrei saw that the money came quickly, so he decided to quit his job as a university lecturer, go to the sea to become a traitor, and buy goods from China to Moscow to sell. I told him that he could buy goods at the Ritan Hotel in Beijing, and when he first arrived in Beijing, he was afraid that he would be fooled, so I asked my brother to accompany him to buy goods. He was very smart, and after a few trips, he became a small wholesaler, buying goods from the Ritan Hotel in Beijing and wholesale them to small traders in Moscow. He is worthy of being a university lecturer, likes to use his brain, and every time he comes back with very popular and in-demand goods, his business is getting bigger and bigger. Once, at the Ritan Hotel, Andre took a fancy to a down jacket, which was fashionable and the price was also available. But it's out of stock, so I'll have to wait another three days. Andre had an idea and carefully wrote down the address on the trademark: Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province...... He immediately drove to Shijiazhuang, found a factory that produced down jackets, and ordered 3,000 pieces at once, and the price was 10 percent cheaper than in the Ritan Hotel. When he returned to Moscow, he immediately sold all the goods, and he began to order them directly from the factory. Since then, he has run more frequently, and orders for clothing have increased from three or four thousand pieces to one or two thousand pieces. Hearing this, I couldn't help but admire: "This Russian master is smart enough, he can do business better than the Russian master I know, and he must have made a lot of dollars in recent years." ”

Teacher Liu nodded and said, "Yes, Andrei, who used to live in the school dormitory, bought a three-bedroom house in the best residential area near Moscow University in the second year, and specially invited me to his new home as a guest. As a thank you for the help I gave him, he gave me a Swiss watch, which was said to be worth three or four thousand dollars. "Saying that, Mr. Liu raised his wrist and revealed a very high-end watch for us to see, although I don't understand watches, this watch looks very valuable." He also bought a new Mercedes car. At first, he and his girlfriend ran alone, and now he has more than 20 people under him, with a warehouse of more than 1,000 square meters. Brother Chao and I couldn't help but "Wow! With a sound, Brother Chao gave a thumbs up, "The Russian master who is good enough!" ”

After taking a sip of tea, Mr. Liu said with a smile: "He is definitely a Russian master who is good enough, and he is the first batch of charter flights in Russia." Until now, he chartered a plane himself, and it was no longer a passenger plane, but a cargo plane. Brother Chao and I couldn't help but "Wow!" After a while, I blurted out: "It's too good, it's really too good, it's better than China's inverted masters." Teacher Liu continued: "That is, China's ordinary masters really can't compare with him. On the one hand, he is smart and can do business, on the other hand, he has many advantages that China does not have, after all, he is doing business in his own country, he knows more about the market, and the key point is that he dares to take risks and dare to try. For the first time, he scraped together two or three thousand US dollars and took an international train to Beijing to buy goods. After making some money, I thought that the international train was too long, so I began to take a plane and use the way of plane consignment, so that I ran three times in two months to once in ten days. The goods he bought were very in demand in season, his goods were updated very quickly, and his customers were increasing, and later, he not only chose factory samples to order, he also went to Italy and France to buy fashion samples and take them to China to place orders. After the business became bigger, the limited weight of the plane consignment could no longer meet his needs, so he began to study the charter flight delivery with several Russian inverted masters with large purchases. Do you know which airport in the country where the CIS charter flights land? Brother Chao and I replied in unison: "It must be Beijing Airport." Teacher Liu shook his head with a smile and said, "Wrong, many people think it's in Beijing, but it's actually at Tianjin Airport." In this month, a group of CIS guests took off from Lithuania on a Yak-42 plane and landed safely at Tianjin Airport on the same day, which opened the prelude to the flight of a CIS chartered plane at Tianjin Airport. Andrei and his friends also chartered a plane from the CIS airline to Tianjin, filled the plane with cargo, and then flew back to Moscow. As the appetite for shopping in the CIS grew, and the CIS charter flights alone could no longer meet their needs, they began to rent freighters. I once went to Ritan Hotel and Tianjin Airport with Andre, and Ritan Hotel said it was a hotel, but it was a special commercial building. The door of each room is open, and a variety of clothing, shoes, and daily necessities are hung in a dazzling manner. The leaders of the CIS use simple Russian or simple Chinese to communicate with stall owners, and clothing and tourist shoes in Tianjin, leather clothes in Xinji in Hebei, and small goods in the south are all in demand. After shopping, there is a special person to transport the goods to a special place for packaging and warehousing, and a special person is responsible for renting a car to transport the goods to Tianjin Airport and waiting for loading and air transportation to Russia and other countries. In the Tianjin airport's markets, in the departure halls, and on the tarmac, there are Russians with yellow hair and blue eyes. Some of these men and women CIS men are in a hurry, just out of the terminal; Some of them carried all kinds of large bags and small bags on their shoulders and went straight to the security channel to enter the waiting hall. Cargo piles up inside and outside the airport warehouse, and there is a steady stream of vehicles delivering to the warehouse. The planes lining the tarmac are mostly freighters. According to staff at Tianjin Airport, there are an average of five or six charter cargo flights a day. ”

On average, there are five or six charter freighters coming in and out a day, wow! I was shocked, there were not almost 2,000 charter flights in and out of Tianjin Airport that year, what a large amount of cargo was transported, it was simply astronomical. The international column is no longer worth mentioning compared with this one. In addition, the story of Andrei going to the sea also well confirms the fashionable saying in Russia nowadays: "It is better to sell eggs than to make missiles".
