Chapter 930 Pandora's Box

This series of introductions made Zhao Donglai feel very awesome, and he still couldn't finish introducing the boss' achievements.

Everyone is a person with exquisite thoughts, and there was a round of warm applause immediately.

"And the lady next to him, Miss Xue Fang, is his female companion tonight." Zhao Donglai said, "Let us welcome them."

Applause broke out again.

Su Chen had a smile on his face: "Thank you everyone, I just came to meet you tonight, thank you for your applause."

Zhao Donglai brought him to meet these people.

They are all heads of departments, ministers, directors, and so on.

Although many people are not very high-level, Su Chen doesn't care. As long as they spend money, these people can find someone with a higher level for themselves.

Tymoshenko felt that she had come to the right place tonight.

At first, I thought it was just to get to know some officials, but I didn't expect to come to such a person who can be regarded as a successful person.

Although she didn't know whether it was true or not, it didn't prevent her from coming to chat.

Although she was able to make the family business prosperous, if what Zhao Dong said was true, her little family business would not be enough.

"This is Mr. Vladivel and his wife." Zhao Donglai brought Su Chen over and introduced: "Also, this is his wife and his friend's daughter-in-law, Ms. Tymoshenko."

In fact, the name Tymoshenko was because she married Alexander Tymoshenko, who came from a family of officials. Anyway, people here have to take a husband's surname after they get married.

"Hello, nice to meet you." Su Chen greeted them with a wine glass in one hand.

Vladimir smiled and said: "Mr. Su, hello, I have always heard that there is a famous oriental wizard in China, and I finally met today. I didn't expect you to be so young."

"Mr. Vladimir, there are some things that cannot be judged by age, right?" Su Chen said with a smile, "I'm just standing on the shoulders of my predecessors."

After everyone greeted, Vladimir asked again: "Mr. Su, I heard that you have a lot of research on economics. What do you think the Soviet Union's economy will be like?"

"This..." Su Chen pondered for a while, and said: "Everyone's life is not easy, which means that the economy is in recession. I have been in Kiev for a few days, and I feel something different."

"Something different?" Vladimir looked surprised, "What? Can Mr. Su explain it a little bit more clearly?"

Su Chen said: "Upheaval is coming, the Soviet Union is losing prestige, economically incompetent and exhausted."

Vladimir's face became serious.

But any insider can see this situation. After all, things in Poland have gotten bigger and bigger since the beginning of March.

It's normal to be seen.

Su Chen continued: "But tonight's dinner is not an economic exchange event, so I think we have relaxed now and enjoy this rare good time."

"Yes." Vladimir smiled, "Mr. Su is right."

"Hello, Mr. Su." Tymoshenko saluted Su Chen, "Nice to meet you, may I ask you a question?"

Vladimir said from the side: "She has always liked business, and she is very capable. She manages the Tymoshenko family's property in an orderly manner."

In fact, what she manages now is just a chain of rental video stores.

Su Chen responded: "That is indeed an excellent lady, Ms. Tymoshenko, I don't know what your problem is."

"May I ask if you have so many industries, are they family industries?" Tymoshenko asked.

After all, it was hard for her to believe that such a young person could own so many properties, so her first impression was of a family business.

Su Chen shook his head: "No, my family is very poor, my parents are both factory employees, and their monthly salary is only about [-] yuan. These enterprises are all created by myself."

"It seems that Mr. Su is also a business genius." Vladimir said, "Then I won't bother you, I'll go chat with an old friend."

Xue Fang continued to meet other people with Zhao Donglai, because she was Su Chen's girlfriend tonight, and it was inappropriate to sit in a corner coldly.

"Mr. Su is amazing." Tymoshenko raised his glass, "I toast you."

The two raised their glasses, touched each other lightly, and then took a sip.

Tymoshenko then asked: "Mr. Su, can I understand your business methods with you? If it is convenient."

"There is nothing to talk about. Mergers, reorganizations, joint ventures, strategic alliances and other activities are the expansion process of corporate capital." Su Chen said, "In addition, the vision of decision makers is also very important. I heard that your family is in the local business is booming?"

Tymoshenko smiled slightly: "It's not as good as Mr. Su's business at all, we just do a little bit better."

That's what he said, but his face was full of arrogance.

I don't know what's so arrogant about a small rental video chain.

"If your husband's father, Mr. Gennady, is promoted to the head of Kirov District, as long as you can rely on the help of power, your business will grow bigger and bigger." Su Chen smiled.

Tymoshenko was shocked for a moment.

Because she didn't expect the Chinese in front of her to be so clear about her family's affairs, just like the KGB.

Su Chen said with a smile: "Please don't be surprised, I have to understand everyone who is here tonight, because I am here this time mainly to carry out business activities here, and I am also looking for a suitable partner people."

Tymoshenko immediately understood that, in fact, if an outsider wanted to carry out a big business normally, he had to meet the local snake.

Even if it's a stall or something, it's no exception.

She couldn't help asking: "I wonder what kind of business you plan to do, Mr. Su?"

"Natural gas, Ukraine's natural gas reserves are scarce, and among the tens of billions of cubic meters of natural gas consumed each year, three quarters depend on imports." Su Chen said in a low voice, "As long as I can monopolize the supply of natural gas in all parts of Ukraine, the profits will definitely be huge .”

"But these are all run by the government." Tymoshenko felt that this person was joking.

Su Chen smiled mysteriously: "Don't you know that my nickname is 'Oriental Wizard'? Since I have this idea, it means that I am not optimistic about the future of the Soviet Union.

Although we just met each other, if you believe me, you still have to prepare early. In fact, I think this business is better for your family because your family has this relationship. "

Anyway, he can't do this business, so it's better to pretend to be generous and create an illusion of 'I want to do it, but I'm optimistic about you, so I let you'.

It's not that Tymoshenko doesn't doubt Su Chen's words. She is not a fool. All signs indicate that the Soviet Union will not survive, but no one is sure whether it is really unable to survive.

Such half-truths and half-false words are the most difficult to figure out.

She said: "Mr. Su, if it's what you said, then you can completely control this business, and there is no need to give it to us."

"Because I'm not Ukrainian." Su Chen glanced at her, "So, I have to deal with local forces in Ukraine, such as reaching a good relationship with everyone present today, including you."

He lowered his voice again: "Also, don't you want to go into politics? If the Soviet Union really disintegrates, why not try to be the prime minister or president of Ukraine..."

Open the Pandora's box in her heart for Tymoshenko. I believe that once this box is opened, it will be difficult to close.
