Chapter 353 Capital and Technology
A special dismantling center has been built at Yaroslav Railway Station in Moscow.
Many of the scrap steel arrived by train are equipment parts, or simply intact equipment. Researchers from Dahua Laboratory and hundreds of workers from Jinan Power Plant first analyzed the equipment, and then decided whether to continue to treat it as waste steel or as old equipment.
If it is an old device, it will get a set of shock absorption equipment and ship it in a wooden box. If it is used steel, it can only be piled up with other used steel, and then arrive in Beijing before deciding the fate.
There are many people who are interested in Soviet equipment, but there are very few companies that can go deep into the Soviet Union like Dahua Industry. There are few Chinese companies that can transport back two or three train equipment every day. Therefore, those who are interested in Soviet equipment and have no resources to go to the Soviet Union to select equipment will come to Huochang in Dahua to "gold".
It can only be regarded as a gold panning. The intact equipment will definitely be picked away by Dahua, and the equipment with expensive parts will be listed separately. Only the extremely rare equipment will be sold to other factories at the price of cabbage. It is rare to expect the technicians of Dahua Laboratory and front-line workers to look at the same time, especially when there is a list of Soviet factories selling equipment, the price of the equipment will almost get a similar evaluation.
Nevertheless, the equipment from the Soviet Union is cheap after all. Moreover, Dahua is indeed not ready to make money through this method... to reduce the cost of affiliated enterprises and improve the production capacity of supply chain enterprises. There is an improvement in Dahua Industry itself that cannot be ignored.
The depth of an enterprise is not necessarily reflected in profit, but it will be reflected in anti-loss. With the support of thousands of enterprises and technical efforts to continuously reduce costs, such enterprises can survive for a long time and resist the impact of political movements and economic climate to the greatest extent.
The Russians watched cars of light industrial products coming in, and cars of used steel shipped out. Most of them don't feel anything. Most of them still believe in shock therapy in Western countries. Many officials, including the upper class of the country, believe that the economic suffering of the Soviet Union was caused by ideology. As long as the ideology is changed, the Russians can immediately become rich, just like people in Europe and the United States.
That's the idea. Supporting the Russians through many difficult years... Long, long and difficult years...
Before that, few people care about whether some dismantled machines can be used. Anyway, the factories don't produce any more. What does it matter whether they are good or bad?
Of course, there are always some responsible workers, or officials with ulterior motives will try their best to keep the factory, but in a chaotic situation, few enterprises can do this. Some enterprises can stay not because of how hard the management works, but because it is not cost-effective to dismantle it.
Dahua Laboratory also organized a technical team. Select equipment in the Soviet Union. However, what can be dismantled and seen is not as much as Su Cheng thought, that is, a few devices a day - of course. In the eyes of technicians, there are enough of these devices.
Corresponding to expenditure is an increasing small deposit.
This was not expected by the Bank of China Group and Sucheng. Because of small loans, the reputation of Chinese banks such as Shenzhen Development in Russia is quite good, so that it has attracted many people to deposit money in banks, many of whom have completed the loan. Not only do you deposit money in Chinese banks, but you will also deposit more for convenience.
In March, when the State Bank of Russia first surveyed national banks, it suddenly found that the number of deposits and loans in deep development had entered the top 100 banks, followed by several other Chinese banks...
At this time, there are many banks in Russia, and foreign banks are as numerous and promiscuous as winter bamboo shoots. It is not easy to enter the top 100, especially the banks of non-Western countries, which are already weak and have lost many government thresholds, and have little resistance to banks in developed countries.
The success of deep development has suddenly aroused the interest of other banks.
It didn't take long. For example, Menatpa Bank also began to operate the same business. Even Sucheng, when passing through the Red Square, you can see billboards on the roadside, with people's heads and big Russian characters.
"What did you write?" Su Cheng sat in Volkane and asked Sikong crown next to him.
The latter squinted for a while and said with a smile, "It's a bank advertisement. I'm Mikhail. Khodorkovsky, for your future guarantee, buy the stock of Menatpa Bank! Menatpa is a commercial bank.
"The famous Yukos Oil Company in the future." Su Cheng sighed, not to say whether it was praise or belittling, but more, just a pure admiration.
As one of Russia's seven financial emperors, Khodorkovsky has shined in the financial and oil industries since the first barrel of gold, and was once regarded as the hope of Russian industry. However, after all, he made Putin's sacrifice and used his life to interpret the character and characteristics of another public figure.
He made a family faster than Sucheng. His money-making funds and position in the national economic system are far better than that of Sucheng.
Hodorkovsky's ending also made many people sigh.
At present, the billboard seen in Sucheng is the toddler Khodorkovsky, who is proudly taking the first step of monopolizing the oligopoly.
Su Cheng couldn't help sighing.
Sikong, who was in the same car, looked at Su Cheng in puzzledly, then at the outside, and asked, "Yucos Oil Company?" It's Russia's ranked oil company that relies on money, right? Does it have anything to do with Khodorkovsky?
"I heard that he is interested in Yukos Oil Company." Su Cheng's explanation in this way is enough to dispel Si Kongguan's questioning.
The latter really didn't ask much, but just shook his head and said, "Yucos Oil Company is worth billions of dollars. This is the lowest estimate. Where can Menatpa Bank take it out? Or are you interested? With Dahua's asset situation, it is still possible to buy Yukos Oil Company.
Su Cheng was moved, but he still shook his head and said, "The situation is turbulent. Such an investment is too big."
If there is no evil Putin in Russia, he may have really done it. But Putin, who was born in the KGB, is really not a good bird. In the process of promoting the renationalization of the oil and gas industry, he can be said to do everything. Khodorkovsky was arrested and detained in a wave of opposition, a foreign executive plane crashed by Yukos, and journalists and government officials were shot to death... Russian environmental inspectors and special prosecutors were rampant throughout Russia. They even created some models to nationalize and threaten dismembered Yuko on criminal charges. The more peaceful low-cost redemption is the Siberian model, and the helium model that was once used on Shell and BP - officials claim that there is world-class helium stored somewhere, and the business license may be revoked...
This renationalization policy is completely unreasonable. Energy companies have encountered not only in Russia, but also in Venezuela, Egypt or Saudi Arabia, which is a strategic risk in the company's operation. Forget it if Sucheng doesn't know. Now that he foresaw the occurrence of nationalization, he can't rush over like a wild bull... Judging from the experience of BP, no matter how many large oil fields he has obtained, it's good to get back hundreds of millions of dollars when he finally leaves. Counting the cost investment in the whole process, whether you have made money or not is two different, not to mention wasted energy and time.
Sikongguan just said casually. Hearing Su Cheng say that "the situation is turbulent", he couldn't help turning his head and asking, "I thought you were optimistic about the situation in Russia. If the situation was turbulent, our loan would be dangerous."
"It's just the turbulence in the energy industry. Russia's foreign exchange revenue mainly depends on oil and gas. The government is now powerless and has no enforcement power to do with all enterprises. But after all, there is. This is different from financial investment. Once the oil industry enters, it will withdraw in ten or twenty years. Not to mention making profits, it's good not to lose money.
Hearing what he said, Sikongguan nodded and said, "I thought Dahua Industry would learn from those foreign oil companies and settle in Russia. It seems that Su Dong won't do this?"
"If it's just technology and capital. It's not completely impossible." Su Cheng smiled slightly. Since the 1990s, Russia's economic development has not been slow, exceeding 5% every year. In this, the income of energy and financial oligarchs is doubled. If it only appears in the name of shareholders, although it does not have a high profit from a whole oil field, it can also save a lot of trouble and the influence remains unchanged.
It's not good. Around 2000, it's enough to withdraw from Russia. Before Putin showed his fangs, Russia's financial oligarchs must be willing to go crazy with a lot of money.
Si Kongguan suddenly realized: "No wonder you want to meet the Communist Youth League Chamber of Commerce."
The Communist Youth League Chamber of Commerce is actually a Chinese statement. In the process of Gorbachev's reform of the Soviet Union, the Communist Youth League was one of the few institutions allowed to dispose of its own gains and was a typical representative of self-financing. The result is that the Communist Youth League of Soviet universities has become a chamber of commerce, and they are all doing their best to do business.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Communist Youth League Chamber of Commerce changed its name and became a real company. Because they are commercial institutions that have been operating for a long time, they are also the companies that are most qualified to inherit the heritage of the Soviet Union. Many Russian richest people started from the Communist Youth League. Those young senior officials of the Communist Youth League often have a prominent family background and a dense network of relationships.
What they lack is funding and technical support.
