When Yang Dongxu came back from the company, Zhou Ya, who had gone to the bank to check the company's accounts, had already returned and was sorting out the information in the room.
"There was a call from China just now. You may have to go back."
"Why do you need to return to China at this time?" Yang Dongxu was stunned for a moment.
"The country attaches great importance to Ukraine, so I want you to go back and give some advice."
"What advice can I give? I've said everything I need to say?" Yang Dongxu still looked confused.
After Ukraine declared independence in August, almost all capable people in the world joined in the feast of carving up the Soviet Union as a superpower.
The one who benefited the most from the disintegration of the Soviet Union was undoubtedly Russia. It inherited 70% of the Soviet Union's heritage and was a fearsome polar bear when it became independent.
Among all independent countries, Ukraine follows Russia and accounts for about 30% of the remaining political heritage. Compared with Russia's strength, Ukraine is undoubtedly more chaotic, so it has become the best target for various countries to poach. Of the many talents and technologies that Yang Dongxu has poached, 90% of them were poached from Ukraine.
And since poaching rose to the national level, Yang Dongxu, a little shrimp, stopped his actions very wisely, and only occasionally encountered suitable opportunities to drink some soup through an intermediary.
The country has thoughts about Ukraine, which is not something that happens in a day or two. Before Ukraine became independent, Yang Dongxu had an in-depth discussion with his godfather about this matter. How the country will operate after that is naturally not something he can participate in. So it was almost a month since Ukraine became independent, and he was a little baffled when he was brought back to talk about this matter.
"The country has sent several business delegations to Ukraine to cooperate. A week later there will be the largest delegation. I hope you will join in." Zhou Ya said.
Ukraine's independence is the beginning of this gluttonous feast for all countries. Commercial acquisitions are then split and sent back to the country. This is a poaching method currently used by many countries.
Yang Dongxu has poached so many talents, and many of them have been brought back to China in the name of academic exchanges. As for the academic exchanges between technologically advanced Ukraine and backward countries, that is a question that God needs to think about.
As for this kind of business delegation, Yang Dongxu had never been to it, but Wu Aibing followed him many times. Although he spent a lot of money, he really got back a lot of good things.
"Why do you have to let me go?" Yang Dongxu had a question mark on his forehead.
He has almost never been to the Soviet Union in recent years. Even after Wu Aibing's intermediary (White Gloves) straightened things out, he stopped going there. So he was very surprised that the country asked him to participate in this business delegation.
Zhou Ya frowned slightly, "They said there was a shipyard selling some things. Didn't you want to buy a freighter before? This is an opportunity."
Apparently she was opposed to this decision. Not to mention that there is a war everywhere, but it is really chaotic, with a mixture of fish and dragons and constant conflicts. It is undoubtedly dangerous for Yang Dongxu to go there at this time.
"I mentioned buying freighters before. Are there any freighters for sale in Ukraine?" Yang Dongxu nodded. He had indeed mentioned this matter to domestic shipbuilding companies before, but because the current domestic shipbuilding technology could not meet his requirements, so This matter can only be given up.
After nodding and thinking carefully, Yang Dongxu felt that something was wrong with this matter. It was just that he didn't need to go in person to buy the boat. Wu Aibing could handle it well, so there were obviously other reasons for asking him to go by name.
"You don't want to borrow money, right?" After thinking about it, Yang Dongxu thought of the most likely reason for calling his name. It is false to say that he is allowed to go, but it is true to want the foreign exchange in his hands.
What the country lacks the most now is foreign exchange. As a small businessman, he can only follow the country to drink soup. The foreign exchange in his hand is the most important thing. Instead of asking him to go by name, Yang Dongxu can't think of anything other than asking him to follow and pay. possible.
"It's really possible." Zhou Ya didn't think much about it at first, but now she was reminded by Yang Dongxu.
She also realized that Wu Aibing was handling such matters before. This time, Wu Aibing in Yanjing was left alone. Yang Dongxu had to be named. It seemed that there was no other possibility except to borrow money, and the amount borrowed this time was definitely Not small, otherwise Wu Aibing could make the decision and there would be no need to ask Yang Dongxu.
"Wait a minute, I'll call downstairs and ask." Yang Dongxu picked up his coat and walked out. There was a phone in the house, but it couldn't make international long distance calls. He needed to use the hotel's dedicated line downstairs.
Yang Dongxu didn't find anyone else and called Zhou Yiren directly. Although his godfather's answer was a little tactful, it was basically as he guessed.
The scale of this business delegation is very large. The reason why it is so large is naturally because they are interested in good things. If there are too few people going there, they will not be able to get them back. And if you want to get the things back, you have to bring enough money.
Over the years, the country has never had enough foreign exchange, so someone mentioned Yang Dongxu, the former money-giving boy.
"How much money do we still have on hand?" Yang Dongxu asked Zhou Ya when he returned to the room and rubbed his forehead.
He didn't have much capital to begin with, because it was really expensive to poach people from the Soviet Union, and it would definitely be even more expensive for him to digest these technologies later, especially after he had just burned a lot to take over Maserati. Being named by the trade group undoubtedly made him very troubled.
"Currently, we can still mobilize about 300 million U.S. dollars. This is the result of mortgaging some other shares in our hands. The Maserati we just acquired can also be used as a mortgage, and the mortgage of your comic copyrights in Japan is also a bit As for the money, it should be no problem to raise 1 billion, but how much do they want?"
When Yang Dongxu went out to make a call, Zhou Ya was already calculating the funds in her hand, so when Yang Dongxu asked, she gave the specific number.
"There is no limit to the state's money. The more the better." Yang Dongxu walked to the sofa and sat down. After careful calculation, he gritted his teeth and said, "Take it all out and see if we can raise more funds. "
"You've given it all, but you still need to raise more funds?" Zhou Ya looked at Yang Dongxu in surprise.
According to her understanding of Yang Dongxu, if she encountered such a thing in the past, she would definitely do her best to help. This time, all of his family's assets were lost at once, and he still had to raise more funds. This was not his style at all.
"Help as much as you can. This kind of thing may not happen once in a thousand years. If you dig more now, the country will develop faster." Yang Dongxu rubbed his forehead and said.
He knew that the funds in his hand would be tight if he took out all the family assets at once, but as he said, such an opportunity may not come once in a thousand years. Now he would tighten his belt and dig out more, not only It saves a lot of time for national development, and the R&D funds saved are astronomical. So no matter what the angle, he should try his best to help.
"Then I'll think of a way." Seeing that Yang Dongxu wasn't joking, Zhou Ya nodded. She didn't ask the reason. As long as he wanted to do something, she would never ask the reason. She would only try her best to help him do it well.
"Let's deal with the matter here as soon as possible. I may really have to go back to China."
"Why don't you just give them the money? You don't have to go there in person, right?" Zhou Ya didn't hesitate to give the money, but she would definitely not agree to letting Yang Dongxu go to such a chaotic place as Ukraine.
"Don't worry, I don't have to go there in person. But there are some things that I need to go back and talk about." Yang Dongxu smiled and pulled Zhou Ya over to sit next to him.
He is trying to raise as much money as possible, and the country must not be idle either. Although the small amount of foreign exchange now is a carrot and a pit that is basically unusable, he still hopes that when he goes back, he can persuade the top management to squeeze out some of the tight foreign exchange and put it in Ukraine.
Life is a little tight and uncomfortable now, but as long as he can dig out more things, Yang Dongxu feels that it is worth it even if he sells iron. No matter how uncomfortable it is, it will only be uncomfortable for the past few years. After this, the country will definitely usher in a take-off.
In fact, if he wants to poach other companies, even military companies, he will spend one billion US dollars, which will be enough for the country to use. After all, the military industry in Ukraine is really worth a lot of money, and many politicians are now trying to take advantage of it. When state-owned assets are privatized, as long as they are given some money to put into their own pockets, they will sell them no matter how good they are.
But this time it was different. This time the country had a huge appetite and directly targeted the Black Sea Shipyard and the Antonov Design Bureau. The Black Sea Shipyard can produce aircraft carriers, and the Antonov Design Bureau is one of the most famous aircraft design bureaus in the world.
If you want to dig things from these two places, it is obviously impossible without spending some money. Therefore, you must prepare sufficient funds when you go. Don't be afraid of too much, but be afraid of not being enough. When the time comes, we can decide what to do and start bringing it to China directly.
Otherwise, when the Soviet Union really disintegrates and Russia stabilizes, European and American people who have enjoyed a feast will once again set their sights on China and want to dig up something to return home. Even if Ukraine wants to sell it, it will be difficult to transport it back to the country. .
The 'Varyag' in the previous life is a good example. The second-hand aircraft carrier was acquired for 20 million U.S. dollars. However, in order to bring it back, we negotiated for a year or two. Not only did we pay hundreds of millions of U.S. dollars in tolls, but we also transferred some missiles. Only then can the technology be shipped back to the country smoothly.
So now not only does the country feel that there is not enough foreign exchange, Yang Dongxu also deeply realizes that his own money is not enough. He hopes to have more, more dollars, so that he can help the country dig out more good things, and take advantage of those imperialist Before the reaction is realized, all the goods will be shipped back to China, so that the country will have less weaknesses for others to manipulate in its future development.
"If it doesn't work, just get involved." In urgent need of money, Yang Dongxu immediately thought of Ivan, an old man whose personality has become somewhat surly in recent years.
Although he did not have an in-depth understanding, Yang Dongxu could feel what kind of amazing capital Ivan, or the force to which Ivan belonged, held in his hands just by looking at the tip of the iceberg.
And these capitals will undoubtedly become the private property of these people under various privatization trends this year. You must know that capital predators are also one of the products after the bankruptcy of the Soviet Union. Although these people were severely punished after Putin came to power, it is undeniable that they were really fat when the Soviet Union collapsed, and they were super fat.
