225 Three Hundred and Sixty-Five
After returning to the Soviet Union, Seryozha immediately became busy. This was something he never thought of before going abroad. Eight? One Chinese? Text ≤≥≥≈≈≤=≈≈≥ The first thing is to open an overseas branch of the Moscow Trading Company. Not long after Sergey returned to China, he was called by Gorbachev to the Supreme Soviet to discuss food imports. In front of several leaders including Gorbachev, Sergey explained the Canadian government’s The attitude on this matter pointed out that if you only rely on imports from Canada, you will be easily sanctioned. Therefore, in addition to increasing domestic food production, you must actively expand new overseas import channels.
Seryozha’s remarks are mainly to pave the way for the overseas expansion plan of the Moscow Trading Company, because everyone here knows that there are mainly four countries in the world that have the ability to control other countries through food, namely the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
These countries have strong food production capacity and their own food consumption is not large, so they can use their ability to manipulate food to achieve certain political goals, which is called food power internationally. The status of the above four countries in the food field is similar to that of Saudi Arabia and other countries in oil. This is not alarmist. Many African countries have suffered food blackmail from these countries. They can use their market position to control international food prices, implement food embargoes or export food with political conditions to achieve their goals. In fact, everyone knows what Seryozha means. The so-called overseas branches are measures taken to break the food blockade in these countries. Smuggled into the Soviet Union. That is to say, the government can acquiesce in the smuggling of food from abroad by Sergey Sha Lesha.
It was impossible for these good things to fall on Seryozha's head, but a missile in the Far East completely changed everything, and trade sanctions must be inevitable. Now in response to the trade blockade of the Soviet Union's imports of grain and major agricultural products, the Soviet Union has officially reduced the tax rate on agricultural product imports to close to zero, but the Soviet Union's food imports continue to decline. To a certain extent, Seryozha shouldered the responsibility of saving the country's food security.
After the meeting adjourned, Gorbachev called Sergei to his office and clearly demanded that he must guarantee the import of one million tons of wheat and certain other agricultural products to the country every month. Xie Liaosha understood that Lao Ge was putting all his treasures on himself. If he can't handle this matter, he won't be able to get along here at Old Ge's place. Not only will Lao Ge's prestige be ruined, but he will also lose all his prospects. Import volume.
After leaving the Supreme Soviet, Seryozha went back to the Youth League Committee to find Mikhail to discuss the matter of the Moscow Trading Company. Seryozha planned to change the name of the Moscow Trading Company, at least not to know that it was a Soviet company. Because such a name can easily attract the attention of others abroad. So the first thing is to give the Moscow Trading Company a new name. Seryozha expects that his first batch of branches and offices will mainly be opened in Italy, Turkey and other places, so he finally named it the Mediterranean Trading Company.
After negotiating with Mikhail, everyone decided to focus on the two branches in Italy and Poland, and will also open offices in Switzerland, Turkey and other places. After Seryozha and Mikhail settled the major issues, Seryozha asked Mikhail to negotiate with the Soviet Civil Aviation Company, and rented five tu-144ds of the Soviet Civil Aviation Company to open a freight company in Poland. , and also discuss the maintenance of these five aircraft and the training of pilots with the tu-144d production line in Voronezh. Seryozha gave Mikhail a lot of work at once, except for one thing, a trivial matter.
This matter is about William Hill, with the help of Rothschild Bank,
Yuri won William Hill very smoothly. William Hill's two major business chain hotel chain and sports betting will be split into two companies. There is nothing wrong with chain hotels, and Yuri will naturally deal with this matter. However, William Hill's gaming business is a bit troublesome. This company operates sports events, including the English League, the League One, the FA Cup, as well as tennis, horse racing, greyhound racing and many other events. But all events have to do one thing before starting to accept betting, and that is to calculate the odds of the event.
This kind of thing is not an easy job. You must know that the reason why William Hill faced a shortage of funds before was related to the large error in their odds, which caused the poor management of the gaming business. Therefore, the calculation of odds has become the key point of the company's operation.
Seryozha happened to know the most suitable candidate, and that was Grigory. Grigory's talent in gaming is undoubted, so Seryozha went to Leningrad to ask Grigory what he meant, and see if he was interested in taking charge of the newly acquired gaming company.
The day after Sergey came to Leningrad, he made an appointment with Grigory to go fishing in the countryside. He asked his guards in Leningrad to help him find a small yacht, and then sent someone to pick up Grigory on board, and then the two sailed along the Neva River to the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea.
The two set up fishing rods on the side of the boat, drinking beer and admiring the beautiful scenery of the sea, quietly waiting for the fish to bite. Seryozha and Grigory chatted and explained the ins and outs of this matter clearly, and Grigory was very interested when he heard it. Predicting the outcome of a sporting event is just so much fun.
"But Seryozha, I can't do this alone. It involves statistics, probability theory, and even non-Euclidean geometry. I'm afraid I have to find a lot of people to do it together!" Grigor Li thought for a while, and told Seryozha all the difficulties that came to his mind.
"It's okay, do you still remember that our Moscow Youth League Committee has a youth science and technology center? We can pay your friends, you can rest assured that money is not a problem, even if you want a large computer, I can get it for you!" Seryosha He patted his chest and promised.
"That's really great. Many of my classmates and even teachers are living a tight life, and who wouldn't be happy to earn extra money!" Grigory said excitedly. Let everyone have an extra income, apply mathematical knowledge to practice, and watch foreign competitions. This is the most ideal part-time job for mathematicians.
"I plan to set up a small company for this project under the name of the Moscow Youth League Committee. How about calling our company Good Luck 365?" Seryozha asked Grigory for advice.
