Chapter 542: Hawaii Meeting (Medium)
Sun Ziming led the third brother and Yang Guozhong to hug and greet the guests, and everyone walked more than 100 meters along the repaired path to sit down in a corridor under the shade of trees on the island. Liu Weiqiang and Chris went outside to guard far away, leaving only Li Chengkai to act as an interpreter for the third brother.
The scenery here is good, the dense rainforest in the middle of the basin has been manicured, paths have been opened, European-style promenades have been built, and milky white real yΓ n rooms are hidden in the green jungle in the distance, and the environment is quiet and elegant.
Tino looked at the surrounding environment, looked at the blue sea and blue sky in the distance, and sighed: "Ming, your scenery is really good, but the name is a little inferior, what is Kuku Island, it might as well be named 'Jurassic Park' after your movie." I see that a house is also being built on the island next to it, and it is ready to be developed into a tourist attraction after the filming, right? β
"OK, it's going to be called Jurassic Park from now on. Tino, the small island next to it has also become my industry, are you interested in investing in it? β
Tino shook his head, just this little thing, how much should I vote for? I still owe him a favor.
Santino was not interested in the scenery, and even less interested in such small scenes, but he was interested in the people standing in the distance, and those two guys were also successful people, and they were like two servants, and they couldn't help but quip: "Ming, you are really magnificent, and you are a servant of the best cinematography in Berlin and the great Hollywood director." β
These words reminded Li Chengkai that He Guanchang touched the nail at Liu Jialing a few days ago, and he couldn't help but turn his head and snicker, while whispering to the third brother to translate.
While pouring wine for everyone, Yang Guozhong said casually: "Mr. Shantino, he is our leader, we are all prosperous because of him, and it is their honor to be a servant for him." β
"Nonsense", Sun Ziming scolded Yang Guozhong, turned his head and explained to Shantino: "Shantino, what happened last time still made me have a psychological shadow, I am not a person who can be absolutely trusted, I don't dare to let them come over at all." β
Seeing that Sun Ziming brought up the old things again, Tino raised his glass and signaled: "Ming, the past, let it pass." Hey, why do you still have those little things? β
"Hehe, people put me together, I will find it back sooner or later. Sandino, are you interested in having a game next time? Those people are rich people, and the funds in Japan last time were not less than two billion, and they tasted the sweetness, and they will definitely raise them next time. β
Who would have too much money? Shantino immediately raised his glass and happily agreed: "OK, it's our honor to work with you!" β
Everyone drank and chatted, as if they were intoxicated by the beautiful scenery of Kuku Island, and when they were all drunk, Shantino signaled Tino to get down to business. Shantino and the others came to use Yang Guozhong's connections to carry out their plans in Russia.
ββ¦β¦ Ming, we need your help, we want to invest in energy in Russia, build an energy pipeline from Eastern Europe to Europe. β
"NO", Sun Ziming shook his head and refused, what kind of virtue the Russians are, he knows too well. If Santino and them enter the energy field in a big way, they will definitely make the iron-fisted successor clean up in the future. They make doomed investments, and if they don't warn them, they will inevitably be a little dirty in the future.
"Ming, you are so smooth in the United States today, we are helping! Without us, would you have been able to acquire the rights to adapt those works? Can you buy ESPN, KCEF without us? β¦β¦ It's a little unfair that you're refusing to do us a little favor now. β
For the sake of this plan, Shantino did not hesitate to make deals with various companies to ensure that Sun Ziming's interests were getting bigger and bigger in the United States, but they didn't expect him to refuse as soon as he made a request!
Sun Ziming pretended not to hear it, and continued to drink his wine, and waited for Shantino to stop himself, before he said-for-tat: "Shantino, I don't owe you, OK?" Without me, would you be able to make a huge profit in the Japanese market? Don't talk to me about those useless, our company has applied for all patents for the first time since the development of digital compression technology, unless you want to kidnap me, it is possible to get the initiative! β
"You", it may be that Sun Ziming's words touched the taboo of Shantino, his face immediately darkened, and he said gloomily for a while: "Ming, make an offer, what else do you want?" β
Sun Ziming knew in his heart that Li Rui's information was valuable, and the rumors were the truth nine times out of ten, and these people were not simple.
"NO, I don't want anything, I'm just stating a fact, I don't owe you anything. As for why we didn't help, Ivan is Russian, he knows the reason better, let him explain it to you. β
Shantino and Tino immediately turned their attention to Yang Guozhong, if they could bypass Sun Ziming, they wouldn't play so many tricks at all.
"OK, I'll explain it to you", Yang Guozhong started with the political parties in Russia and the political factions within the parties, and analyzed the entire Russian society clearly, but deliberately belittled the strength of his own faction.
"This is the case, although my father-in-law was promoted to Minister of Economy and Trade, it was just an ornament with no real power, and it was used to balance the Far East. Several of my relatives are also in high office, but they all serve in the Far East, which has less than 1/10 of the country's population. β
Tino won't believe it all, Yang Guozhong is a man of the year in Moscow, who doesn't know the 'returning Ivan'? He sent people into the Russian Far East several times, but the only way to move by plane was in the airport, and the train was stopped in the Ural Mountains, as if there was another country to the east of the mountain. If it weren't for the fact that most of Russia's gas was in Siberia, would they need to find Sun Tzuming?
Yang Guozhong's face changed, and he had no choice but to tell the strange tripartite entrepot trade in the Far East, "You are right, we do have a certain influence in Moscow, but we can only protect ourselves." Tino, we used this monopoly trade to tie the officials of the Far East to the chariots, and even had the military and police set up a card in the Ural Mountains, prohibiting the Russians in Europe from entering the Far East to trade goods, and only the Russians in the Far East were responsible for the sale of goods. In order not to allow the Kremlin to interfere with our efforts to open up direct trade with China, we must compromise with others on some issues. β
Hearing this, there was a look of disappointment on their faces, and they thought that Yang Guozhong was full of guests and friends in Moscow, and his father-in-law was in a high position, so he should be a powerful person, but they didn't expect them to be controlled by others. The Far East, where there are less than 2 million Russians, will surely make a lot of money by supplying goods to more than 150 million Russians and 1.3 billion Chinese, and it is no wonder that the Trans-Siberian Railway will block them.
Yang Guozhong continued to explain: "Mr. Shantino, energy is in the hands of the president and the Ministry of Energy. The United Russia Party, the Yabolu Alliance, the Alliance of Right Forces, and the Liberal Democratic Party are the main political parties in Russia, and except for the Liberal Democratic Party, which advocates total Westernization, the rest are hostile to the West, and it is impossible for the president not to listen to the opinions of the majority and hand over energy to foreigners. β
Shantino and Tino exchanged glances, foreigners may not be good, but what about natives? Although this Ivan is controlled by others, he also represents the interests of the Far East, and he should be able to speak in the president's name, but what if it is operated in their name? What the Russians need is money, what they need is resources, as long as the two sides cooperate, they can control the European oil and gas market in the future, and the minimum harvest can also have an impact on the oil and gas market.
Yang Guozhong has agreed with Sun Ziming not to wade into this troubled water, and he will agree to this request, "No, our people in the Far East are different from Europe, we don't care who is in power, and we can't be like them who wants to integrate into Europe, we only care about the economic development of our own region." We have reached an agreement with the Kremlin that they will not interfere in the affairs of the Far East and will maintain our autonomy, as long as we pay our taxes in full. We can't get involved in any political bargaining at the expense of our own faction for your benefit. β
This statement is reasonable, the Far East has resources, and China has human resources and markets. They also studied the Far East, where they could only rely on the Chinese market for development, and Europe was too far away. For Sun Ziming's group, it is enough to get the interests of the Far East, and it is too risky to participate in the interests of Europe, so it is no wonder that they do not want to cooperate.
The two of them looked at each other, and concluded that Sun Ziming Group was more than capable and not enough, so his face looked better, "OK, we are just cooperating with them, you just need to help us pull the strings, we will not treat you and Ming badly." β
Yang Guozhong turned his head to look at Sun Ziming, and saw that he nodded slightly, so he continued to persuade: "No, Mr. Shantino, Russia's affairs are far more complicated than you think, if you want to support agents and achieve control of Russia's energy resources, it is estimated that you will fall on your heels." Don't forget, Iraq, Iran, and Syria all nationalized the oil industry, and Russia, which has been engaged in socialism for 70 years, has too much experience in nationalizing private enterprises. β
Shantino looked at Sun Ziming and Yang Guozhong strangely, and suddenly felt that these two people were too cute and kind, and they could think so much about themselves, which was comparable to his brother Tino. Oh my God, could it be that God deliberately gave them so many miracles?
Tino also thinks it's incredible, it is said that a person who can do such a great thing should be a person with deep attainments in politics and economy, how can he not even see through the essence of politics? Is China's education so backward? No, it's not like that, God can't favor just one person, they have other plans.
After Yang Guozhong finished speaking, Shantino said sincerely: "Ivan, your analysis is too reasonable. But we still want to try, maybe we will fail, so what? It's nothing more than a loss of money, but what about success? The meaning of life is to break through, only in the United States, we have reached the extreme point of life, if we want to go to the next level, there must be other opportunities. To go further, we are willing to take risks! β
Then there is no problem, it is enough to be friends and do this step. People insist on jumping into the pit, and if they stop again, they will hurt their peace. Yang Guozhong saw Sun Ziming nodding again, so he said helplessly: "OK, if you insist on entering the energy field, I will help you introduce friends, and the Trans-Siberian Railway will also be open to you." β
βThinkοΌyou!β
Everyone had a drink and began to visit 'Jurassic Park' under the guidance of Chris.
