v4 Chapter 335: hard choice

? Domestic investment in the aluminum industry in Chita Prefecture? This news is somewhat important to Guo Shouyun. At least he can learn two pieces of information from it. First of all, China obviously tacitly acknowledges his vested interests in the Far East, and to a certain extent, is also willing to support his interests in the Far East. exhibition. Secondly, in the face of the international environment of the post-Soviet era, especially the trend of Russian diplomacy that has added more variables, China has abandoned the post-repressive diplomatic approach in the past, and high-level decisions are to expand China’s presence in Russia. influence, and to maximize its influence.

The leaders of several ministries and commissions in Beijing who came to Harbin this time are all deputy positions, but Guo Shouyun does not think that this is a deliberate contempt for him by the domestic side. After all, his identity is quite sensitive, and there are many uncertainties in this negotiation. , so by convention, such occasions are all supported by the deputy.

At the luncheon, Guo Shouyun and Sun Hongyu sat at the same table with the leaders of the ministries, while Shoucheng and Dongting sat at another table. They had their own officials to greet them, despite their relationship with Guo Shouyun. It is unusual, but there are still a lot of concerns in China. Like these more private issues, it is natural that the fewer people know about it, the better.

Chinese people have their own customs. Take commercial negotiation as an example. Westerners like to settle things in formal occasions, especially in formal meetings, while Chinese people like to talk about things like negotiation. Put it on the wine table to solve, at this point, there is no difference between officials and businessmen.

During the luncheon, a deputy secretary-general from the Planning Committee proposed the investment plan that Sun Hongyu had previously mentioned. The specific content is: Shanxi Aluminum Industry. That is, Jin Aluminum is currently planning to invest in Chita, Russia, and establish a joint venture with the existing local Terelsk Aluminum Plant to build a large-scale aluminum group with an annual output of no less than 500,000 tons. Currently. For this investment plan, Jinlu plans to raise 180 million yuan. If the project is approved, it is expected to greatly improve the local backward economic situation in Chita. At the same time, it can also solve the employment problem of 24,000 local people. Frankly. This is a win-win investment project for the country and Russia.

According to the information provided by the planning committee, Guo Shouyun learned that now, this project has been reported to the planning department of the Russian Federation and has been approved, but unfortunately, the project was resisted by the Chita state government because of "Sumitomo Metal", one of the three giants of Japan's aluminum industry, is also planning such a project, and their project reporting plan has been approved by the Chita state government.

how to say. The current situation in Russia is quite complicated. The phenomenon of competition in power in all aspects is serious, and the division of power between the central and local governments is quite confusing. Originally, for such a large-scale project dedicated to the development of state-owned natural resources, the first procedure to go through was to report to the Moscow Federal Central Committee. But now, because Moscow's centralization has been weakened. The local centrifugal tendency is severe. So on a lot of things. Moscow has lost its effective control of the local area. Just like this investment project of Jinan Aluminum, the domestic report to Moscow is not working at all.

And what is the result of the local authority meeting? There is no doubt that corruption is prevalent and corruption is rampant. Guo Shouyun didn't have to think about it to guess that the little Japanese must be throwing gold dollars in Chita Prefecture, and there are colorful banknotes, which is absolutely invincible in Russia today. Follow the normal path to walk this road, and it is a strange thing to be able to walk through it.

Previously, Guo Shouyun's identity was also considered sensitive in China, so in this matter, they did not plan to let him come forward to solve this matter. The way they preferred was to use Khodorkovsky's energy to infiltrate the Japanese into the country. Chita's power squeezed out. The location of Chita Prefecture is very special. It directly borders China, and at the same time, it is close to the Far East. The little devils can't move the Far East, where the Guo Group's strength is deeply rooted, so they go to Chita's idea. Wedge nails----A large investment project brings not only economic benefits, but also great political influence, and sometimes even a series of chain reactions. Therefore, it can be It is blunt to say that the competition between Jinlu and Sumitomo Metal for the Chita investment project is a major event related to the political radiation of China and Japan in Russia. This issue must not be taken lightly in China.

Khodorkovsky now has a clear tendency to move closer to China. He and Vinogradov secretly visited Beijing four days ago, during which the country raised this issue, hoping he can help in this regard. However, Khodorkovsky is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Although he did not explicitly reject it, he raised a very crucial question, that is, Chita State does not belong to his sphere of influence. Yat and even the eastern part of Siberia, these areas directly bordering the Far East, several Russian giants including him did not intervene. For nothing else, just because there is a Guo Shouyun in the Far East. This guy is not a man of temper. Anyone who touches him will give his life to fight with others. In addition, these areas themselves are poor and white, so the big guy Yes, no one is willing to provoke a sheep for so few pieces of chicken ribs. To this end, Khodorkovsky proposed that he could extend his hands on Chita's investment projects, but the premise is that Guo Shouyun's work must be done well in China, otherwise, this matter can only be handed over to the Guo Group. Do---Chita is close to the Far East. Although Guo's Group did not show to Chita, his influence must have radiated to that area, so as long as Guo Shouyun came forward, there would be no problem in this matter.

All in all, Khodorkovsky put a double-choice question in front of Guo Shouyun: you can take care of this matter, or I can take care of it. You can choose one of the two.

"Khodorkovsky is a bastard!" During the luncheon, while listening to the introduction from Beijing, Guo Shouyun cursed Khodorkovsky in his mind. It's to give himself room to choose, he's making it clear that he is calculating on himself.

There is no doubt that facing the conditions given by Khodorkovsky, no matter what Guo Shouyun chooses, this small life is not very easy. If he doesn't intervene in Chita's side, well, Khodorkovsky is about to do it, so what will he do? Obviously, to be a small and impoverished border state, Chita's gang of bureaucrats will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure from a big domestic giant. Khodorkovsky can easily take down this enclave, thus bringing this place that has been left untouched all the time under his wing. In other words, is Guo Shouyun willing to see such a situation? There is no doubt that he absolutely does not want to see such a situation appear. As the saying goes, how can others sleep soundly on the side of the couch? A dignified Khodorkovsky came to be his neighbor. Guo Shouyun is expected to sleep in the future. Can't be safe.

So from another angle, if Guo Shouyun intervenes in this matter, what kind of result will it be? Needless to say, if he intervenes, Khodorkovsky will still have a lot to gain. At least one thing is obvious, that is, in his political stance, he completely takes Guo Shouyun, a factor that has always been uncertain, completely. Pulled into the water.

In today's Russia, especially in Moscow, the phenomenon of differentiation between the two major power groups based on external factors is becoming more and more clear, and this differentiation is based on reform policy positions on the one hand, and diplomatic inclinations on the other hand. In a nutshell, the Kremlin is currently committed to moving closer to the US-led Western world, and the US is the priority of their foreign policy. At the same time, the economic reform policy they pursue is a liberal capitalist economic policy that is fully Westernized. Opposing the Kremlin are some political dignitaries whose positions tend to be left-wing and are inextricably linked with the Bolshevik Party. The United States and other Western countries, on the other hand, advocate that in terms of economic reform, follow China's reform and opening up policy, and gradually deepen various economic reform measures on the premise of strengthening centralization.

Similarities and differences in political views mean the division of forces, and the division of forces means a series of power struggles. Recently, Khodorkovsky is trying his best to get rid of the manipulation that Western countries have imposed on him behind his back, and is trying to move closer to Beijing in terms of position. Before this trip to Beijing, he and Vinogradov I once asked Guo Shouyun about the position of the Guo Group, but Guo Shouyun has a lot of hearts, and his attitude is also very ambiguous, making people unsure what he is thinking.

Frankly speaking, although Guo Shouyun was very close to Khodorkovsky and Vinogradov during this time, it was difficult for them to achieve mutual trust in the true sense based on their status. Guo Shouyun all day long. He was suspicious, he couldn't trust him, and he couldn't trust him either. Under such circumstances, if Khodorkovsky is not sure about Guo Shouyun's extroverted stance, his trip to Beijing will definitely not be at ease.

While eating lunch, Guo Shouyun kept pondering. He estimated that this time Beijing wanted him to contribute to the Chita State Aluminum Investment Project. Maybe it was because of the drunkard's intention not to drink alcohol. Action: If he intervenes in the Chita issue, then everything will be over. Not only can Beijing take down this project and squeeze the Japanese power out of Chita, but at the same time, it can also let Khodolko Vsky rest assured, the most important thing is that they can tie Guo Shouyun firmly to his "chariot", so that he can no longer swing left and right like he did before -- this is really a trick to kill three birds with one stone. Chess. In other words, Guo Shouyun pondered that if he didn't intervene this time, things would be tricky in the future. Khodorkovsky's hand would never reach Chita for no reason. Maybe, That is the precursor of the domestic and Huo's joint attack on him.
