Warship of Great Power

Chapter 622: Gangster's way

  Chapter 622 The Way of the Big Brother

  Before the collapse of the Red Empire, Vinogranov started his activities, and after that, he flourished. Now his Moscow International Commercial Bank is already the most famous private bank here in Da Mao.

However, Qin Tao knew that Vinogranov's good days were over. In the coming economic crisis, Vinogranov lost everything, and tried several times to make a comeback without success. The luxury villa in front of him has long belonged to someone else, and he spent the last journey of his life in a two-bedroom house in Moscow.

  Vinogranov has no political ambitions, purely because of business failures. In the financial crisis, entrepreneurs like him have suffered countless misfortunes. He is not the first, nor will he be the last.

If it was someone else, Qin Tao would never bother, just stand by and watch. However, after all, he and Vinogranov have been old friends for many years. In the past few years, many accounts of Qin Tao have been obtained from Moscow International Business The bank, so, at this time, he must remind.

   Everyone walked through the corridor and entered the luxurious restaurant. Qin Tao stood on an oil painting on the front.

There are seven or eight people in the picture, the most conspicuous place on the left is a standing man, he passed the door of the room and walked in, on the right is a dining table, and the people sitting on it who are eating stand up one after another, looking at the person who came in people.

   ""The Exile", Repin's masterpiece, I guess it's not a high imitation, did you spend a lot of money to collect this painting?" Qin Tao said.

  Vinogranov nodded with a smile: "Mr. Qin, you really have a good eye. That's right, this is the real thing. It cost more than 20 million US dollars at that time."

Repin, a famous painter in Damao, was born in poverty, so his paintings reflect the characteristics of that era. Of course, the most famous one is "Trackers on the Volga River". This "Exile" is exiled to the people.

  The work depicts a scene in which an exile returning from Siberia suddenly appears in front of his family. The painter freezes the drama in the momentary silent gaze between the characters, and the expression of each character reveals the special relationship with the returnee, which is accurate but not repetitive.

   Only the richest people can afford these collections, and after Vinogranov's career failed, these collections of paintings were also sold off.

   "Qin, sit down, I have prepared the most sumptuous dinner for you." Vinogranov said, "Come, let's open a bottle of 82-year-old Lafite."

  Qin Tao smiled and sat down: "My friend, you spend too much money."

   "Qin, can you tell me about the financial crisis?" After drinking for three rounds, Vinogranov finally spoke.

When I first met Qin Tao, he was just an ordinary loser, but now, Qin Tao is the boss of a multinational corporation. Such a person must have excellent knowledge. Vinogranov has been thinking Listen to what Qin Tao said when he got off the car.

   "Let's talk about Da Mao's market. The financial market here is very unstable now, and the danger is great. Once a large amount of foreign capital maliciously sells short, the wealth will be swept away."

Vinogranov pondered for a while, and nodded after a few minutes: "Yes, in terms of market economy, we are still at the level of children, and we are not as good as those capitalist countries that have been around for hundreds of years. The risk you mentioned is indeed true. Yes. So, what do we do?"

   "If I say to give up everything now, anyway, the money will never be spent in a lifetime, I guess you will definitely not agree."

   Vinogranov nodded, that's for sure! Now that I have started such a big business, how can I give up just based on Qin Tao's few words? Even if Qin Tao is his good friend, he can't completely listen to him.

In fact, if you stop now, the money you earn will indeed last for several lifetimes. However, as a successful entrepreneur, you will not just stop like this. Just like an empire, as long as it exists, it needs Constantly expanding, without end.

"So, what if the Moscow International Commercial Bank is transferred to someone else? Find a suitable person to be your bank's legal person. If you encounter special circumstances, you can withdraw your own deposits from the bank and transfer them to other banks. , As for whether other customers can successfully cash out their deposits, it has nothing to do with you." Qin Tao said: "In our East, this trick is called the golden cicada escape. Of course, you have to find a suitable candidate. It is best This person has no idea that he owns such a bank, and once this crisis is successfully overcome, you can transfer the equity back."

   There are too many such things in China. I originally went to work as an employee of a certain company, but somehow became a legal person of the company. I didn’t receive any dividends from the shares. When the company went bankrupt, the employees of the corporate legal person got into big trouble.

   This kind of cheating method has been played too much, Qin Tao can bring it up casually, but it is the first time for Vinogranov and others to hear it, and their eyes light up, indeed!

  If you escape the crisis, then quietly transfer the procedures to your own name, if you don’t escape the crisis, take your own money and run away, and let this irrelevant person handle other things, yes, yes!

   This operation is very complicated, but he has a lot of energy, so it is no problem to handle such small things.

  Vinogranov nodded: "This method is feasible. We still need to sell a large number of national debts we hold to minimize our risk."

   "Qin, if our bank really has an accident, where should we go next?" Alexander asked.

"Anywhere is fine. If you want to go to the East, you can go to the Pearl of the Orient. Vitalia is also there, and she has established a good big company. You can also continue to engage in the banking industry there, maybe in the future We will still do business."

  Vinogranov nodded: "Qin, it is my greatest honor to know you as a friend."

   "It's an honor to meet you too." Qin Tao raised his glass: "Come on, let's toast to this friendship!"

   While Qin Tao and Vinogranov were drinking, Nicholas was reporting to his superiors.

  After listening to the whole project, the superior nodded with satisfaction: "Nicolas, your suggestion is great, but I'm just a little surprised, you are just a soldier, how can you be so good at these capital operations?"

   "I, I am also worrying for the country." Nicholas said: "I have also been studying economics over the years..."

   "Really? Then tell me the three-dimensional sniping theory of Wall Street in detail." The superior said.

  Nicolas was dumbfounded at the moment. If he was talking about the three-dimensional warfare at sea, he could say it all. If he was talking about the theory in the financial field, how could he understand it!

   "This theory is very complicated. How about I summarize it and report it to you in detail tomorrow?"

  The superior nodded: "Okay, then you can analyze for me why Siam is the first target of Wall Street capital attack?"

  Nicolas was dumbfounded again: "Well, of course it's because, because..."

   "Nikolai, you came to Moscow with Mr. Qin from the Mingzhou Group, right? In the Far East, and on the way here, what did you talk about?"

  Nicolas was stunned for a moment, and then he realized in his heart that he couldn't fool the superior in front of him at all. The other party knew that these plans of his were all proposed by President Qin!

   "I'm very interested in President Qin. If I have time some other day, I invite him to come over and have a chat." The superior said.

   "Yes." Nicholas backed out, feeling his body was drenched in sweat, why was he so stupid, he forgot where he came from!

  Qin Tao stayed in Vinogranov's villa that night and slept very comfortably. When he woke up, the sky was already bright.

  Where are you going today?

   It's time to find Boris, let him recognize the situation, and go to the east to find his daughter, if he stays here, he might be killed.

   Just before Qin Tao planned to go, Nicholas' car drove to the gate of the villa. He got out of the car and greeted Qin Tao with a serious face: "Qin, let's go?"

  Qin Tao was taken aback, what happened?

   "Qin, the superior already knows that you came up with the idea, so he wants to see you." Nicholas said.

   "Nicolas, you have eyeliner by your side." Qin Tao also responded immediately: "Do you know who it is?"

  Nicolas nodded, his eyes were already murderous. He has been in the Far East for so many years and has become a high-ranking military officer. How could he not know who has a problem?

"Just know it. If you want to let your superiors know in the future, just spread it through this eyeliner quietly. If you don't want him to know, you should have a way, but you must not kill him, otherwise, You'll be sitting on the bench forever."

  Nicola nodded: "Okay, this matter is up to you. Qin, you won't blame me, will you?"

   "There is nothing to blame you. If we want to maintain a friendly relationship in the future, we must establish a good relationship with our superiors. It is my honor for a person of my status to be in his eyes."

  Qin Tao knew that this day would come, so he was already prepared, and he would never be overwhelmed by the sudden blow.

  The superior was too busy, and Qin Tao finally saw this person until after seven o'clock in the evening.

"It's nice to meet you, I'm very sorry, my status is limited, I can't contact higher-level people, and I can only make suggestions through Nicholas." Qin Tao said: "Please believe that I have no malicious intentions. "

   "I know, otherwise, do you think there are some people who secretly protect you to ensure that you are safe and sound here?" The superior's words are both important and intimidating.

Qin Tao smiled: "As long as you do things frankly and with a clear conscience, what is there to be afraid of? We have a lot in common. For example, we have all been fooled by the West, and then we will be wary of the West. We have a common interests, so it should be in our best interest for us to deepen our cooperation with each other.”

   "The oil pipeline in the Far East is part of this deepening cooperation?" the superior asked.

   "That's right, but it's not limited to these. Next, we will also support the Arctic route."

Da Mao wants to develop the Arctic route, because it can make money. The fleet that has traveled the Arctic route has to pay them tolls, even if it is not clear, the fees for the navigator in the dark, the rescue fee for the icebreaker, etc., are also quite a lot .

  Although something happened to the fleet of the South Kimchi Country this time, it was because they were reluctant to spend money. If they hired a professional navigator and Da Mao's icebreaker, would this happen again?

For the East, it is the Strait of Malacca that can get rid of the danger. The products of the East have begun to occupy the European market in large quantities. The East needs a safe sea route. If the Arctic route can be navigated normally, it will be closer than the Malacca and Suez Canal. Also more secure.

   Moreover, it can also transport the energy in the Arctic Circle of Da Mao to meet its own energy needs.

  Qin Tao talked about these strategic cooperation projects.

"The next focus of our Mingzhou Group is to manufacture a large number of ice-breaking ships. We will also cooperate with the Red Star Shipyard, so that both of us can develop and benefit each other." These benefits thrown out by Qin Tao are impossible for the superior unmoved.

  Nicolas was still afraid of any accidents. As a result, Qin Tao was calm and eloquent when facing his superiors, which made Nicholas admire him very much. This is the courage of people who do great things.

   "Is that all?" the superior finally asked.

Qin Tao thought for a while and continued: "There are a few more words, which are my personal opinions and do not represent the official position. The Red Empire has collapsed, but this does not mean that the Cold War has completely disappeared. The United States has a powerful army. Find an opponent for yourself. You must develop and grow in order to deal with any possible crisis, and strengthening economic cooperation with us is the best choice."

"Is it only economic?" The superior said, "We are also very envious of the large number of advanced warships manufactured by your Mingzhou Group. Is it the right time to conduct a joint military exercise?"

   "This, let the superior decide." Nicholas hesitated to speak.

  After coming out of it, Nicholas finally let out a long breath: "Qin, your performance just now was too calm, it's really impressive."

  Qin Tao smiled: "My back is also soaked, but this test is over, and we can continue to do what we should do in the future."

Back then, when Qin Tao was a traitor, he took away a lot of things from Da Mao. However, his superiors should not settle old scores. After all, the Mingzhou Group now wants to help them. The existence of Qin Tao has a great influence on Da Mao's development. great help.

  The two of them walked outside while talking. When they got out of the gate, Qin Tao saw another smiling face.

   "Vitalia? Why are you here?" Qin Tao asked curiously.

   "I'm tired of staying in the East, come back and have a look."

  Tired of staying in the East? Qin Tao remembered telling Vitalia that he wanted to let her participate in the financial crisis in the East, and get a lot of benefits along the way. How could Vitalia come back when she was free?

   "Nicolas, you don't have to wait for me tonight. Vitalia and I are leaving." Qin Tao said to Nicholas.

  Nicolas had an understanding smile on his face: "I wish you a nice night."

When Qin Tao got into Vitalia's car and Xu Zhengyang sat in front of it familiarly, Vitalia started talking about the business: "Qin, my father heard that I want to do something big in the east, So, he also raised a sum of money, those people on Wall Street want to play finance, and we have to play too, to see whose pockets the money will go into in the end!"

Qin Tao nodded: "Vitalia, your luck has always been good, I think you should be able to triple the profit this time, with this money, your father should retire, right? "

retire?

  The expression on Vitalia's face became serious: "Qin, do you think my father may be in danger next? I know, he has some rifts with the person you just met, but..."

"Weina, you are on the wrong team, and your end is terrible. Think about how many high-ranking people were in the era of the Great Cleansing, but because you were on the wrong team, you ended up with no good end." Qin Tao said: "Your father Not a politician, he's just a businessman, he's got enough money now, stop in time, times have changed."

   Vinogradov is okay to say, after all, he just opened a bank. Although he called the wind and rain, he collapsed in the financial crisis. What about the others? Vitalia's father controlled an important energy sector, such a person would not end well.

   "Qin, I'm afraid I can't convince my father. You met my father this time, can you help me talk about it?"

  Looking at Vitalia's expectant eyes, Qin Tao nodded: "I'll try my best."

  Boris also attached great importance to Qin Tao's arrival. After the car drove into the villa, he immediately ran out to greet him in person.

   "Mr. Qin, although we have met frequently in recent years, it is for business, and we rarely have such personal exchanges. It is great that you can come to my house today." Boris said to Qin Tao.

"I am also very honored." Qin Tao warmly stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party: "Now, our oil pipelines in the Far East are continuously transporting oil, and these black energy sources have played an important role in the development of our national economy." On behalf of the relevant departments, I would like to thank you for your contribution."

   After being polite, he entered the villa. Qin Tao looked at the magnificent decoration like a palace, and said, "My friend, it is said that you were only a professor at Moscow University before. You probably never thought that you would have the achievements you have today, right?"

   "Yes, at that time I just opened a newspaper office and dumped a few cars. I never thought that I would have the status I have today." Boris said: "Of course, you are also credited for it."

"My friend, there are a few proverbs in our east. Birds are exhausted, good bows are hidden, cunning rabbits are dead, and lackeys are cooking. Nothing can be enjoyed for a lifetime..." Qin Tao was thinking about the words over and over again. Was beaten to death? After all, if these words were placed in the ears of ordinary people, they would be a proper curse.

  Faithful words are harsh!

  Boris looked at Qin Tao with burning eyes: "Qin, I know that you are my most sincere friend, so you are willing to tell me these words. In fact, I have been thinking about your suggestions for the past few years."

  After meeting Boris that year, Qin Tao advised him to make multiple preparations. Later, Vitalia went to the East to start a business for this purpose.

  Now, Qin Tao mentioned this matter again, and Boris felt even more emotional.

  Because he has seen that the rope is slowly approaching his neck.

  Back then, when the Red Empire had just collapsed, vigorous reforms were carried out, and all state-owned enterprises were turned into private ownership. As a result, the wealth in the hands of a large number of people became waste paper, and the enterprises fell into the hands of a few people. When the economy was about to end, Da Mao initiated shock therapy.

  Shock therapy made Da Mao's economy worse. The inflation rate was as high as 2,500%. Private oligarchs emerged in various industries in the country.

   In 1994, Da Mao gave up shock therapy and returned to a safe route.

That is, in that era, Da Mao began to attach importance to the state's control of large enterprises. Only these state-owned enterprises can bring more fiscal revenue to the country. If the country's economy is controlled by a few people, the government will become the puppet of these enterprises .

  In the past few years, although Boris has been doing well in the energy field, he has already seen that the future is not very optimistic, and he also feels more and more how correct the warning Qin Tao gave him at the beginning.

   By his side, no one would tell him this, only Qin Tao.

   "Qin, what do you think I should do?" Boris asked.

   "You should have two paths." Qin Tao was very satisfied with Boris' performance, and finally felt relieved.

  “The first is to sell the company to the country and leave with the wealth. You can go to the East or Europe to live a happy life as a rich man.”

   "What about the second one?"

  “It is best not to take the second path, because there is no possibility of success.”

  Boris' body shook.

  Some things don’t need to be explained too clearly, as long as the two of them understand each other, the second way, of course, refers to killing the people who stand in front of them. However, this way is also very dangerous. Once you fail, you will be doomed.

  Qin Tao has made it clear that there is no possibility of success in this road!

   "However, if the company is sold to the country, our country may not have so much money to buy it now. The only way is to issue a batch of national bonds. The money is in my hands, which is almost like waste paper."

"No, there is an opportunity right now. The large amount of national debt in your hand will soon be exchanged for dollars." Qin Tao said: "As long as you are not so greedy, you should be able to sell it at any time. The money is enough to make you rich." It's an enemy country."

  Boris nodded: "Okay, I will consider your suggestion."

   "Well, I hope you make a choice as soon as possible. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to wait for another opportunity."

  Qin Tao breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that this matter has been successfully completed, and he has done his best to his friends.

   PS: I changed the previous ten times to a hundred times. Sorry, I didn’t learn math well. .
