Chapter 1303 General Election

PS: PS: I just wanted to rest my eyes, but I overslept.

Since the countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States separated from the Soviet Union, most of them have not lived the good life they imagined. The domestic economy is in a mess, and the demand for energy is not as good as when the Soviet Union was a republic.Before their economy improves significantly, Gazprom is already content to be able to guarantee a stable import quantity.As for Europe, the economic development of those countries has reached the peak of the current stage and reached a bottleneck state. Unless there is a new technological revolution and the economy gains a strong development momentum, otherwise, their demand for Russian natural gas is also quite stable.Of course, if there are a few rare cold winters, the demand for natural gas in Europe will also fluctuate upwards.

The economy of Central Asia itself is not so developed, and it is rich in oil and gas, so the energy market there has nothing to do with Gazprom, but a competitor.The rest are Mongolia, China, and North Korea, South Korea, and Japan in East Asia.

Needless to say, Mongolia has a demand for natural gas and its consumption is limited. It is not enough to lose money if we really need to lay natural gas pipelines.North Korea is already clinking poor, and even its debts are not cleared. Naturally, Gazprom will not ponder its market when it is full.South Korea and Japan are big consumers of natural gas, but they already have stable gas sources. Even if they want to switch to Russian natural gas, they still have a lot of scruples, so the market is limited.

Gazprom looks left, right, up, and down. At present, the only country that can provide a stable and broad market for its expanded gas source is Huaxia.And China is currently flirting with Central Asian countries... so Gazprom is also a little anxious.Bie gas field has been developed, but there is no market.Wouldn't that wink at the blind?
But it is easy to say to enter the Chinese market, but it is not so easy to operate in practice!Some people, including Gazprom and the Russian government, couldn't help regretting that when Huaxia made this request, it shouldn't have refused so happily.In fact, this cannot be blamed on the Russians. If possible, no country is willing to be a pure energy supplier. The Russians did not expect that after so many years, the Russian economy is still difficult to see a real improvement.The domestic military expenditures have repeatedly hit new highs, and the Russian government must find new sources of taxation.

In order to solve the imminent funding gap, they need to borrow a huge amount of debt from the outside world, and the Second Gulf Bank, which generally does not attach political conditions, has become their first choice.The combination of these factors contributed to Belevsky's trip to China.

Fang Mingyuan took two deep breaths, but he really spent a lot of time thinking.That's how the whole thing came together.Of course, this also has a lot to do with the cooperation of Belevsky and his son.

Belevsky said: "Our government hopes that the US$40 billion in loans and US$30 billion can be converted into shares of Gazprom, but except for matters related to China, your side only has the right to dividends, no Voting rights. Loans for the remaining billion. Can buy natural gas...”

"Wait. Only dividend rights, no voting rights. How can I guarantee the investment income of my Fang family?" Fang Mingyuan interrupted Belevsky, "Your country's company is also famous for its financial chaos. Moreover, How do I transport the billion-dollar natural gas back? Could it be sent to Vladivostok first, and then shipped to the port of Huaxia?"

Belevsky spread his hands and said, "I'm just passing on the proposal of His Excellency the President. If you have any different opinions, you can definitely raise them and we will negotiate."

"Then you talk first." Fang Mingyuan waved his hands.

Belevsky stretched out his hand to his son, and the little Belevsky handed Fang Mingyuan a briefcase knowingly.Belevsky said: "This is the information I brought about Gazprom. Although it is not a top-secret document, it is not accessible to ordinary officials. I believe it will be helpful for you to understand Gazprom. It will be of some help. There is also a folder in it, which is our draft proposal, and I have given you everything I know."

Fang Mingyuan casually handed the briefcase to Zheng Jiayi who was at the side, and Zheng Jiayi quickly put it away. A small briefcase is worth thousands of dollars.

The Belevsky family was naturally arranged in the courtyard of the ancient city of Pingchuan, and the people who accompanied them were also arranged there.Although Belevsky came to China in a private capacity this time, due to his status, the Russian side still sent as many as seven entourages.According to Chen Zhong, there must be elite military guards inside.Although the yard prepared for them is smaller than that of the Fang family, it is more than enough for the Belevsky family, even including the accompanying personnel.And behind it, there is also a back garden full of ancient Chinese characteristics.

"It's so beautiful here!" Aurora couldn't help screaming when she saw it for the first time, and then pulled her classmate, her little grandma, and rushed in excitedly.

"Fang, this place is really good!" Belevsky praised heartily. This kind of courtyard full of ancient Chinese style is more exciting than a modern hotel.Moreover, the place has undergone a modern transformation, and the comfort of living here is not inferior to that of a modern high-end hotel.

"It's good that you are satisfied. If you are not satisfied, then I can only send you to a five-star hotel in Fengyuan." Fang Mingyuan laughed.

"Hehe, forget it, the five-star hotel in your country is just a brand!" Belevsky said.Fang Mingyuan listened indifferently, Huaxia's hotel industry has caught up in terms of hardware, but in terms of service level, compared with the world's top hotels, there is still an obvious gap.

"Old Belevsky, do you have anything else to say?" Fang Mingyuan looked around, and at this moment only the two of them said, "If you don't say anything, I'll leave, and at least tomorrow is when we see you again." It's gone." The Belevsky family flew here from Moscow, but the distance was not close, and they needed to rest and beat the jet lag.Moreover, Fang Mingyuan also needed time to carefully consider Russia's proposal.

"Hehe, this year is [-]. At the end of the year, there will be a new presidential election." Belevsky said softly.

Fang Mingyuan was stunned, and smiled lightly: "I understand!" No wonder that person took out the shares of Gazprom and the Sino-Russian natural gas pipeline project this time. It turns out that this year is the presidential election year in Russia. Fusky reminded him that he was so busy that he almost forgot about it.It is no wonder that Belevsky came to Fengyuan in person. The task of contacting the Fang family has been in charge of Belevsky since the former Russian president.

"Your Excellency the President hopes to be re-elected for one term. I think this is also in the interests of both of us." Belevsky laughed.This is also an important task for him to come to Fengyuan. Although Aso Xiangyue also provided funding to His Excellency the President, due to the successive occurrence of terrorist attacks in Russia, the hearts of the people are a little unstable, so more funds are needed to support Presidential campaign canvassing.As for financial support beyond the budget, Fang Mingyuan's nod was necessary.

"I heard that the president of your country intends to amend the constitution and extend the term of the president?" Fang Mingyuan asked with a smile.The term of office of the President of Russia is four years, with the possibility of two consecutive terms.Although Russia's current economic situation is not good, the current Russian president has a relatively high support rate among the Russian people.

"I want to go back to thinking, but it is very difficult to do, and it is easy to attract criticism from the media and the public!" Belevsky shook his head.From his personal point of view, he certainly hopes that His Excellency the President can be successfully re-elected and extend his term.But Russia is not a country dominated by one party. Today, there are many parties in the Russian Parliament.Although the party of the current president is the largest party in the Russian parliament, compared with the influence of the other major parties, the gap between them is not that big.Therefore, it is prudent and prudent to do something like this—as early as the first time, it was denied.

"We also very much hope that Your Excellency the President can be re-elected smoothly, and hope that our friendship will last forever and we will continue to cooperate for a long time." Fang Mingyuan said that the necessary support for the current President, including funding, will only be provided by If the Russian company controlled by Aso Xiangyue does it, it will not leave any handles for those who are interested.And this matter is already familiar to Aso Xiangyue.

"However, has the current situation in Russia really reached this point?" Fang Mingyuan asked seriously.As the president's senior aide, Fang Mingyuan believed that the safety of the Belevsky family could still be fully guaranteed.

"The occurrence of three terrorist incidents in succession makes people feel a little panicked, especially the Moscow subway terrorist incident, which caused some confusion in Moscow's social order. Of course, this will not affect the upper class of Moscow. I will send them to Huaxia, What's more, I hope they can have one more chance to understand China." Belevsky said seriously.Fang Mingyuan secretly raised his middle finger in his heart. This old guy is worthy of being a politician, and he was able to say such a lie without changing his face, which is probably a lie that he himself did not believe. (to be continued~^~)
