Business man god [rebirth]
Work related
It has been three weeks for Ke, and he found that the business is not as easy as expected.
Last year, the Soviet Union promulgated the "Regulations on the Establishment and Development of Small Enterprises", which should have been a policy to encourage investment. It is said that in the northern Ivanovo Oblast, the number of enterprises has increased from 13 to 300.However, this figure is very watery, 60% of which are organized by state agencies and enterprises, and 18% of the enterprises have the participation of local people's representatives.Only 18 were founded by other citizens.
It can be seen that the so-called promotion of business is just changing the soup without changing the medicine, and the bureaucracy is too heavy.I, a foreigner who came here alone, can't seem to see a way out.The Chinese here also rely a lot on the domestic government to do business. Do you think I can find a clear way?
If there is a relationship in China, why should I come here to fight, and even if there is a relationship, it is useless.The china counter I told you about last time had a different look when I went there yesterday.Those good-looking ceramic mugs cost the same as hard plastic mugs from the Soviet Union.I inquired about it, and it was the price department here that issued the approval document, saying that they violated the pricing regulations and fined them.Even if we think that these cups are handicrafts, artistic and completely different from those hard plastics, Lao Maozi's price department doesn't listen at all.
There are many people buying things at the counter now, but I am not optimistic at all.Although it is said that small profits are quick to sell, such pricing does not even cover the cost. I am afraid that the more you sell, the more you will lose.It is said that this ceramic products factory was originally a cooperative project between the local governments of China and the Soviet Union, and it has become like this. Can I, a person with no background, only rely on trains to resell materials? '
Yue Cangzhou is not a person without worries. He is good at investing, but here he feels that he has no way to start, and he doesn't know where to start.The key is that there must be huge profits, and there is no such business from a logical point of view.
As the letter said, is there no shortage of things in the Soviet Union?Lack! But ceramic factories with a background cannot escape the fate of failure, because the prices here are fixed, and their exquisite products are actually priced at the same price as hard plastics. Business in a foreign country is not so easy.It seems that the spring of Soviet industry has not yet come.
This kind of emotion is only suitable for talking to Gu Yao, and he has to pretend to be very calm in front of other people, at least Donald is still waiting for his touch to turn a stone into gold.
Gu Yao can't give Yue Cangzhou any advice on business. He doesn't know much about it. Except for what he saw in the crew, he always talks about things that Yue Cangzhou doesn't understand at all. The remnants of blue and white can be repaired. What kind of history is behind this thing? It has passed through the hands of high-ranking officials, but now it has also flown into the homes of ordinary people.It's a pity that he can't afford the materials used to repair this Yuan blue and white.
Gu Yao sounds a little out of date. In this era of rapid change, like a green pine planted in a busy city, although it is stained with red dust, it still lets wind from east to west.But it was the stories in these piles of old papers that calmed Yue Cangzhou's impetuous mood.
There was a 'click' sound of the door opening, and Donald saw Yue Cangzhou in front of the desk, "I'm writing letters again."
Yue Cangzhou saw the sweaty Donald, who was about to take a shower, "Didn't you go to meet your old classmates, it's so cold outside, you can sweat all over?"
"The meeting is in the morning, and I am back from sports." Donald said casually about his recent busy work, "I recently found someone to practice kung fu with, and that is Mochevsky next door. At the back of the school, I learned Tai Chi from a physical education teacher from China. Are you interested too?"
Yue Cangzhou looked at the golden-haired Donald, he learns Tai Chi?Really crazy.The image gap between this person and Zhang Sanfeng is too great to make up for.The so-called physical education teacher from China is really not cheating money?
"You paid tuition, how much?"
"Oh! Yue, you can't be so vulgar, how can you talk about money when you practice kung fu! If it weren't for our sincerity, Master Wang would not accept us." Donald said in a fuss, and questioned Yue Zangzhou's idea of calculating the price of everything, " He taught us for free, and this kind of mentoring relationship cannot be bought with money. Of course, I cannot owe this debt for nothing, and I am also teaching his children English, which can be regarded as learning from each other."
Yue Cangzhou could only sigh in his heart, maybe people in this era are more simple?No longer entangled in this issue, it is obvious that Donald, an American, has lost his mind in the study of 'Kung Fu'.
"I look forward to your success in your studies. By the way, Asakawa from upstairs invited us to spend New Year's Day together and eat neon hot pot. I also plan to cook two dishes. Do you have time that day?"
"Of course!" Donald wanted to drool when he heard the hot pot. Even though he is an American, he is used to steak and potatoes, but he really kneels down to the food of the Soviet Union. There are too many choices compared to the American ones. At least he has to eat Seafood is hard.It would be nice to be able to eat hot pot this time.
**
There should be a celebration in the Kremlin that night, but after the four of Yue Cangzhou had a big meal, there were actually two of them sitting in front of the TV watching martial arts movies!Such a choice is naturally the favorite of Donald and Mochevsky, while Asakawa Sakura has no particular preference, and even takes care of the work of washing dishes after meals.
After all, Yue Cangzhou was too embarrassed to let the girl do all the work. She did everything from preparing ingredients before meals to cleaning up after meals, while the three men were watching TV on the sofa.
So Yue Cangzhou still took the initiative to help put away the dishes. In fact, the fundamental reason was that he really didn't have any interest in the martial arts movie being played. If there was no fault in his memory, Donald had already played this movie for the third time.
"Yue Jun, I can come alone." Asakawa Sakura seemed to be very used to such a situation, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with her doing everything.
Yue Cangzhou recalled that in island countries, women generally take care of the housework, and now it is far from 20 years later, but this is his family, "You have worked hard, and I can do these things."
Asakawa Sakura didn't insist, she wiped the stove instead, and chatted casually to keep the scene from being too quiet, "Didn't Mr. Yue want to study here? Do you still want to do business on the train after the New Year?"
"You've heard of it too?" Yue Zangzhou actually felt a little confused about Asakawa Sakura's coming to the Soviet Union to learn Russian.The relationship between the island country and the Soviet Union is definitely not good, and most Neon people go to the United States to develop.
"I just heard some talk from my classmates." Asakawa Sakura's voice was gentle and unchanging, "There are individual businessmen like Yue Jun, but many of them have their own gangs. I heard that they are divided according to regions. In Wenzhou in the south, in the capital area, and in Heilongjiang in the north, the Chinese pay attention to the solidarity of the villagers, so the more people there are, the faster they can make money. Some of my classmates who work in the capital have asked me to do it a few times, and they can also earn a lot of money. Half a year's living expenses."
Yue Cangzhou paused when he heard the action of washing dishes here, he turned his head to look at Asakawa Sakura, and just met her gaze, but his expression was still calm.But those two sentences just now have stirred Yue Zangzhou's mind, this kind of understanding is not at all like a superficial understanding. "Asakawa-san is amazing, and he knows such details. I also ran several times before I knew the distribution of forces on the train."
So, how can you say it so lightly, this is not the era when you can find many things with a network cable.
"It's not surprising, girls like gossip." Asakawa Sakura raised her head and replied naturally, "I just listen to these when I have nothing to do. Not only the things on the train, but I have also heard a lot about the scams in the Red Square market. Well, when I first got here, I was also cheated out of twenty dollars."
"Oh? For a beautiful and gentle person like Asakawa-san, there are people who have the heart to lie to him. That's really inappropriate." Yue Zangzhou said with a hint of teasing, as if the distance between the two was shortened, but Asakawa Sakura was already in his heart. Putting it in a position that needs to be dealt with, he is not really 16 years old, and anyone can share a little secret with him to make friends.
"Isn't there another sentence that same-sex repels? I met a female liar. Yue Jun must be careful in the future. I remember your Mr. Jin said in the book that beautiful women are the most deceptive." Asakawa Even though Sakura said this, she didn't feel much upset, and didn't care about the money she lost.
Yue Cangzhou couldn't help but pay attention to Asakawa Sakura, that Yin Susu's famous saying was said from a neon mouth, or from a beautiful woman, there was always something weird about it.
Sixteen chapters
"I wanted to buy a piano that time." Asakawa Sakura didn't care about Yue Zangzhou's suspicion, but just talked about the experience of being cheated.
"We all know that money is not enough to buy something in the Soviet Union. Items like pianos have to be lined up in advance. When I first came here, I thought the pianos here were cheaper, so I wanted to buy one. In the mall I met a girl who was registering goods. She said that there were a lot of people queuing up for registration in front of her. If she followed the normal procedures, she would have to wait at least a year. It is not impossible for me to open a door of convenience. As long as I pay an extra $20, I will help me The name was moved to the front. I looked at the registration book in her hand, and it was really densely packed with names, and it took a long time to wait in the regular queue. Because I was not short of the twenty dollars, I believed her this time, and then took the note , Waiting for someone to contact me about the specific delivery arrangements after a month, who knows, there is no news at all after a month.
I went to the mall again, looking for this girl, but there was no one there.After careful inquiry, I realized that the unified registration of pianos is on the top and seventh floors of the shopping mall, and that Anna is not their employee at all.That registration book does not have my name on it at all.With my twenty dollars, that person can exchange at least six thousand rubles on the black market. "
Yue Zangzhou guessed that if this story is true, then the Soviet girl who lied to Asakawa Sakura should grow up harmless to humans and animals, and she is the well-trained Khlestakov. Pass.It's just that what is the purpose of Asakawa Sakura saying this?
Asakawa Sakura had already cleaned the kitchen, put away the apron, brought four glasses of drinks to the living room, and started watching martial arts movies.From time to time, I discussed with Donald and Mochevsky that this move is good, and it is more practical than the one in a certain movie.
**
After seeing off Asakawa Sakura and Mochevsky, Yue Zangzhou told Donald what he had just heard, mainly to let him have a better understanding and not to be cheated in the market.The Soviets like to pick people who have US dollars, so that they can double their profits in the foreign exchange market.
"Asakawa-san is really a good person." After listening to Donald, he said this first, "We got her advice, and we can avoid some detours."
"Is that not bad?" Yue Cangzhou couldn't keep up with Donald's brain circuit, but he just talked about one thing she encountered. Although it surpassed the casual chat of meeting by chance, it didn't rise to a certain level.
Donald also asked slightly puzzled, "Isn't it? You see, Asakawa-san told you before that you shouldn't trust the words of a beautiful woman, and then she told you what happened to her. Don't forget that she is also a woman. Speaking frankly like this, we are not afraid of causing our defenses and misunderstandings about her, just to prevent us from being deceived, isn't it a good person?
In fact, she doesn't seem to keep a distance from people like she seems. She also proposed this dinner, so that we can get closer.Moreover, he is careful in doing things, and even cleans up after meals. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is considerate and considerate.What more can you ask for?I also think that Asakawa-san may take care of Yue as a younger brother. "
Is this how normal people should think?Yue Cangzhou thought about Donald's words carefully. According to the general logic, there is no problem with this understanding, the other party just wants to make friends.I am also six or seven years younger than her, is the other party reminding me to take care of myself?
"I think Yue, your thinking is always a little different from ordinary people." Suddenly Donald said this directly, which surprised Yue Cangzhou, "It's not that there is anything wrong with it, but there is always something weird about it. Weird. For example, it’s about kung fu. As far as I know, everyone likes to watch martial arts movies. Today, Asakawa-san also said that many people in island countries like Huaguo Kung Fu. Mochevsky also said that there are many people in the Soviet Union. It fascinates, and even in Beijing, many people insist on practicing Kung Fu.
I have also been to the martial arts gym in the capital, and there are many young people practicing kung fu.But Yue can always look at it rationally, as if he thinks this thing is unreasonable.In fact, I also somewhat understand that the possibility of practicing flying over the roof and walls is very low, but it is also good to keep fit, why do you have a slight rejection? "
"Do I have it?" Yue Cangzhou also asked himself, and then he realized that what Donald said was not necessarily wrong.Because he knew that this trend was destined to recede, and it exited in a state of annihilation, and later it involved issues of national security.Therefore, he was doomed not to understand the fanaticism of people in this era who almost lost their minds, and almost subconsciously he looked down on these deceitful things.
However, Donald's words are correct. He habitually looks at problems with the perspective of 20 years later. This is a kind of advanced help, but it will also blind him.
Donald was still talking, "I don't know if you have any. But it's true that you don't care. You shouldn't know that there were articles on martial arts in the "Pravda" in April 90. This is a Soviet article. The official newspaper! The most authoritative newspaper in the Soviet Union!"
"Is there such news?" Of course, Yue Cangzhou knew about Pravda, which was the most authoritative newspaper in the Soviet Union. It can be said that from the beginning of its publication by the Russian Communist Party, it has been the most faithful to Soviet news theory in the past 80 years. Practitioners and leaders of China should say that it is equivalent to the domestic "Guangming Daily" in terms of similar comparison status.
Yue Cangzhou didn't delay, and looked for it directly. In order to understand the dynamics of the Soviet Union, he had a lot of stockpiles here, and the "Pravda" in April 90 was definitely among them.
Then, in the fourth edition of the issue on April 1990, 4, Yue Cangzhou saw a long report about a sinologist visiting Henan Shaolin Temple, which was very long and very positive.
Seeing that Yue Cangzhou was finally willing to face up to the kung fu that he had been thinking about, Donald said a few more words, "Yue, I knew you didn't care about this. Look, I still have the magazine "Soviet Sports" here, but I and Mo Che Fowski managed to snatch it up. The magazine was out of stock as soon as it hit the market. If it weren’t for Mochevsky’s good relationship with the boss, we wouldn’t have bought a copy. You can see that there are many detailed explanations of kung fu in it. I decided to go to the Songshan Shaolin Temple in Huaguo this year, and maybe I could meet an eminent monk as well."
Yue Cangzhou has already turned a deaf ear to Donald's later words. He never counts on such stalks as the high monks in the mountains. Is there anyone else who can explain why he has a new life?
He took the "Soviet Sports" and saw that this issue contained reports on the Huaguo Wu Qinxi with pictures, and explanations of every step of the movement. Absolutely rich in pictures and texts, very vivid.
Yue Cangzhou closed the magazine, he had to make sure of one thing, "Are all introductions to Kung Fu like this selling well?"
"Of course there are a lot of them, and I bought some from street stalls myself. There are quite a few small bookstalls at the entrance of the Moscow subway, and there are all the hottest novels on them. Unfortunately, I can't read Russian, but the cover is printed with I am not mistaken about the ancient Chinese people. And Mochevsky said that among the students he taught, almost no one in the Soviet dormitory did not put up posters of Bruce Lee. He is an idol of the whole people, but unfortunately he is no longer alive. Yes. But Hong Kong Island’s Jackie Chan is also very famous, and Mochefsky has a poster of him.”
"You mean that many people are obsessed with kung fu, but I remember that the Soviets were more optimistic about their martial arts masters than Chinese kung fu." Yue Cangzhou didn't know much about the sports world, and he remembered that there seemed to be Russian fighters in the United States. The radio station publicly said such big words, Huaguo Kung Fu is a fighting skill for the incompetent!
"Oh! Yue, who did you listen to?!" Donald felt that someone must have instilled something extremely absurd in Yue Cangzhou, "You should have let me know that you were led into such a prejudice, you never watch TV Don’t you know that martial arts is a craze in the whole Soviet Union, and we never get tired of watching martial arts movies several times. A few years ago, the All-Su Huaguo Wushu Association was established, and the global program of the Soviet Central Television was almost always a topic of Huaguo Wushu I have watched the previous videos, and there is a theory put forward in it, such as judo and boxing are just for people to practice external skills, while Huaguo Kungfu such as Taijiquan is to exercise internal skills, more practice can also make people People are getting smarter. You really don't know?"
Yue Cangzhou's mind was a little messed up. Tonight, he was popularized as a raging trend of being around him, but he was like a person from a different dimension. He had clearly seen a master like Gu Yao, but he turned a deaf ear to it.
Therefore, on January 1991, [-], Yue Cangzhou was in no mood to pay attention to other things at the beginning of the new year. He spent a day reading all the relevant news.I finally realized what the meaning of Huaguo Kung Fu is at this time.
The phrase 'the martial art of the incompetent' was spoken more than 20 years later.If one dared to speak out publicly in this Soviet era when Chinese martial arts movies flooded the country, he would definitely be drowned by the spitting of every single person in the Soviet Union.
Hehe, Yue Cangzhou is a little dumbfounded at this situation. What Donald said is true, even worse than this. This is a national craze. He asked Professor Ivan, and the old gentleman was also eloquent. He actually I also plan to find a Hua Guo martial arts school to learn Kung Fu after arriving in the United States.
Hearing this sentence, Yue Cangzhou felt mixed emotions. It turned out that Huaguo culture had become popular abroad in the same way before he didn't realize it, almost to the point of blindness.Huaguo's movies and Huaguo's martial arts are all weather vanes. When will such influence cease?When Huaguo manufacturing spread all over the world, there are no more foreigners who sincerely admire Huaguo culture.
Yue Cangzhou was a little confused, his thinking was ahead of his time, but those who are half a step ahead are geniuses, and those who are one step ahead are madmen.He saw that the thinking of this era is 20 years behind the people here. These 20 years have been the most turbulent 20 years of global change. Numerous old rules have been broken and many new viewpoints have been derived.
This sounded a wake-up call for Yue Cangzhou, he had to correct himself, detachment was also a departure from the times, he could not break away from the rhythm of the times.
Even so, he still has reservations about some points, such as Asakawa Sakura.After reflecting on himself, Yue Cangzhou paid more attention to Asakawa Sakura, because her knowledge is beyond the level of ordinary people.
However, none of these were put on the surface, and now Yue Cangzhou finally found a way of making money by his side.
The author has something to say:
seventeen chapters
Think about it and do it!The first step in this matter is to see how the martial arts market in the Soviet Union is.
Yue Cangzhou's first step was to focus on the video tapes brought by Donald. According to Mochevsky, who watched with him, none of these films had been brought into the cinema.
In this era, there are only a small number of foreign films that can be introduced into cinemas. If you want to watch foreign movies and TV, you can only rent video tapes or go to those privately opened video halls before the omnipotent network bypass technology. Go to the movies.
How many Soviet people understand Chinese?Yue Cangzhou read those so-called best-selling martial arts novels sold at small stalls. They were all shoddy translations, sometimes really unsightly. Most of these books were pirated.But there are also many people who buy it, which shows how popular Kung Fu is.
So why not see how many people these translated videos can attract to watch the movie.
Yue Cangzhou had a clear goal, and first released Donald's pile of videotapes one by one. He held back the complaints about the plot and characters in his heart, and spent five days translating all these videotapes into Russian. Version.
At the same time, Donald listened to Yue Cangzhou's suggestion. They only had tapes in their hands, but they had no roots in the Soviet Union. They must find a reliable partner. Mochevsky, who also loves martial arts movies, is one. A very good candidate. His younger brother just happened to open such a video studio, and the rich water would not flow to outsiders. This first step of a sure-win business was handed over to Mochevsky.
Don't look at Donald's lack of rationality when it comes to kung fu, but once he heard Yue Cangzhou say that their love can be turned into real money, his mind suddenly cleared up.As I mentioned earlier, one of his alumni also came to Moscow. That person is called Tom, and his brother is named Jerry. I don’t know if my parents watched too many cartoons when they named it.Looking back, Jerry is not a student of Princeton University, but he is also a graduate of the law department of a prestigious school, and he is very proficient in this aspect of business terms.
At Business Talk Business, formal business cooperation is always inseparable from a good lawyer.Yue Cangzhou took over the affairs of translation technology, and other trivial matters were handed over to Donald.
Donald was not sure at first, but after this investigation, he found out that in the gray area, the transaction value of such video tapes is very high.The more abundant entertainment activities are lacking, the more expensive entertainment products imported informally will be able to command high prices.If they are accompanied by a Russian translation, they will definitely earn a lot of money.If the level of translation is excellent, it is not difficult at all to ask for tens of thousands of rubles for a tape, but it is only a drop in the bucket compared to the money that a video studio can make.The number of people who go to watch the movie is large, so we only charge the entrance fee, and if we accumulate less, we can earn back the money paid for the translation tape in one session.
The video room in Mochevsky's home is not large, but he didn't hesitate to eat the twenty tapes at once.Mochevsky knew that although Yue Cangzhou didn't have a diploma, his Russian level was not much worse than that of doctoral students in those schools.The key is that language must be used, especially when the audience is ordinary people. What they need is not professional terminology, but a translation that can be understood and smiled.In this regard, it is really difficult to find a person who can surpass Yue Zangzhou with rich language knowledge.
Experts look at the doorway.Anyone who has read foreign works knows that in the absence of familiarity with the native language of the other party, a good translation can make a work, and a poor translation can ruin a work.It can be said that these twenty third-rate martial arts movies were translated by Yue Cangzhou, and they were immediately upgraded to a higher level.
So without blinking, the Mochevsky family ate the twenty tapes at a price of 120 tapes.Regardless of the high price, this was buying out Yue Cangzhou's translator at once, and he couldn't sell the same film to another company.But it is not a small sum to come up with 60 million rubles all at once.They can't come up with this large amount of working capital for the time being. Under Donald's negotiation, they will finally pay half of the [-] yuan first, and then pay the other half after the film in the video hall becomes popular. Big red packets.
Yue Cangzhou packed these video tapes in big bags, and Mochevsky loaded them into the car as carefully as if he was holding a gold brick.
Donald still seemed to be dreaming. Just an hour ago, he got 60 rubles like a white wolf with empty hands.
60!Not six thousand!Not sixty thousand!
It can be said that if converted into U.S. dollars, even at the black market price, the [-] U.S. dollars earned in these ten days is the per capita income of the United States for half a year!
Not to mention the conversion into RMB, 10 RMB can definitely become the ranks of rich people.
The key is how much they paid. These twenty tapes definitely don't exceed one hundred dollars, which is a fraction of a dollar!
No, Donald felt that he had to be quiet, don't ask who Jing was.
Then, according to Yue Cangzhou, he should never hold rubles, and try to exchange them for US dollars or other western currencies.So the big box shrank into two envelopes containing [-] and [-] dollars respectively.
He stared at the envelopes containing [-] dollars on the table with glowing eyes, then shook his head pretendingly, "Actually, it's not very thick, and it's not so thick that it can smash me to death."
It would be even better if Donald looked at Yue Cangzhou with less fanaticism.
Why are some people who are also born as human beings with golden fingers that can turn stones into gold?This unscientific!
However, science is not required, and science may not necessarily be converted into dollars, but Yue Cangzhou can.Donald had already despised himself, obviously he had brought the video, but he only saw the kung fu in it, but Yue Cangzhou saw [-] rubles hidden behind a tape.What is the gap? This is the gap, the gap that can make people vomit blood.In the beginning, Yue Cangzhou was blind and didn't pay much attention to kung fu, and it didn't matter if he didn't pay attention to co-authorship.I heard that there is a God of Wealth in Huaguo, so he can worship Yue Zangzhou in the future.
Yue Cangzhou took his share. This time, he and Donald were split [-]-[-]. He got [-] and the other [-]. It was really a worthless business.This further reflects that knowledge is very profitable, and there will be a day when studying well will be useful.
But Yue Cangzhou was very calm, it was only [-] US dollars, and he could pay off the debts owed by his uncle and himself.
After the final payment and the red envelope arrive, the total will be 25 US dollars, [-] RMB.Donald just said you, can you calm down and don't act like you have never seen the money.
"Yue, that's not right, God Yue, see if I go back to the capital once and bring another batch of tapes." Donald also knew that now the market is dominated by sellers, and the Soviets have no access to well-translated martial arts movies. , then ten days a million rubles is not a dream.Video halls like the one in Mochevsky’s house are spread all over the Soviet Union. This time, I promised them not to sell the same film translation tapes to others, but they can translate new films. This is not a violation.Next time, I won't do a one-shot deal, even if it's only [-] yuan per set, but if you go to a few more stores, you can earn more than this time.
"No." Yue Cangzhou cruelly crushed Donald's dream with two words.
"Why?" Donald stared at Yue Cangzhou with wide eyes in bewilderment, should he let such a business with no profit at all?
Yue Cangzhou looked at Donald with hatred, but fortunately he came from the United States, so he had no sense of genuineness at all. "I made this order just to test the waters. You think my wisdom is only [-] rubles a tape? Such a cheap price?"

2. The background of the article, such as the situation in the Soviet Union, is adapted from historical facts, and the situation in the general environment is the real social status at that time.Seems amazing, but they really happened,
However, the author did not go to the Soviet Union at that time, but according to the description of the materials, there may be errors (⊙o⊙)
Eighteen chapters
Donald was choked by Yue Cangzhou's tone, [-] US dollars for ten days is still cheap, so how much does it cost to make him fancy.Although Asking himself is also a long-term viewer, Donald thinks that they should not be too ambitious. In fact, to put it bluntly, people cannot push the money they get out.If he wasn't proficient in Russian, he would have rolled up his sleeves and done it himself.How many copies can be turned over is how many copies, there is no need to worry about market saturation, the Soviet Union is so big, and there are so many people chasing movies, so there is no need to worry about selling, but not enough movies.
Yue Cangzhou glanced lightly at Donald, who had fallen into the eyes of Qian. From this incident, he could already see that his thinking in communicating and negotiating with outsiders is still good. As expected, he studied sociology and minored in psychology. The grasp is deeper than others.Although there is still a lot of immaturity, the best learning is in practice.
"Drink some water and calm down." Yue Cangzhou poured a glass of cold water into Donald's glass, and now he needs to cool down. "Money is just a number, so don't take it too seriously, and don't plunge into it."
Donald gave Yue Cangzhou an angry look, "Why are you so fake when you say this? Others can say it, so forget it. If I plunged into Qian's eye, you would have already shouted inside. Your ancestors all said don’t laugh at fifty steps in a hundred steps.”
Yue Cangzhou shook his head, the use of this allusion is still not in place, and he needs to learn more, and now Donald needs to learn the word patience, "I didn't say to stop here, why are you in a hurry. Let me ask you, what are you doing now? Do you think it is appropriate? Although the accumulation of capital is always full of blood, which big capitalist did not do some cruel things when he made his fortune. But if it can be avoided, it is better to set a bottom line from the beginning. We rely on translation Video tapes can make money, but it is not legal. Those video halls do not have authorization to show movies. To put it bluntly, we are porters, stepping on the shoulders of others, helping them spread the fruits of their labor abroad, so that the Soviets Appreciate the beauty of Chinese culture. But if you say a thousand words and ten thousand, you are actually just a thief, using the fruits of other people's labor for nothing, and no matter how much you earn, I feel that this money is hot."
When Donald heard Yue Cangzhou say this, all the excitement on his face faded away, and what they did was not qualitatively different from piracy. Maybe they took advantage of legal loopholes, but they always couldn't stand firm on the ground.If the other party really cares about it, there is every reason to file a lawsuit.
Perhaps, some people will scold them why they have to think so much since they have done it, but some things really can't be done once.Donald is not a fool, he immediately understood what Yue Cangzhou meant, "You want to do it yourself? But we don't have the capital to make movies, do we?"
Yue Cangzhou looked at Donald, and touched his forehead in surprise, "I don't have a fever, why did I hear someone talking nonsense, who said that a movie is going to be made? Even if it is made, the Soviet Union will not import it, and you are still an American. Want to open a film company in the Soviet Union? Our small amount of money is not enough.”
Donald shut up, he wanted to hear what Yue Cangzhou had to say.
"Of course, movies are the best way to make money. If I have the capital of the Shao family on Hong Kong Island, then I will also seize the opportunity of this golden age. If one day we really make it, you want to enter this industry. I have no objection either. However, it’s better to be down-to-earth now.” Yue Cangzhou agreed with Donald’s daydream, who hasn’t had a dream.
Instead, Yue Cangzhou took out his own plan and put it in the Tang Dynasty.
Last year, the Soviet Union promulgated the "Regulations on the Establishment and Development of Small Enterprises", which should have been a policy to encourage investment. It is said that in the northern Ivanovo Oblast, the number of enterprises has increased from 13 to 300.However, this figure is very watery, 60% of which are organized by state agencies and enterprises, and 18% of the enterprises have the participation of local people's representatives.Only 18 were founded by other citizens.
It can be seen that the so-called promotion of business is just changing the soup without changing the medicine, and the bureaucracy is too heavy.I, a foreigner who came here alone, can't seem to see a way out.The Chinese here also rely a lot on the domestic government to do business. Do you think I can find a clear way?
If there is a relationship in China, why should I come here to fight, and even if there is a relationship, it is useless.The china counter I told you about last time had a different look when I went there yesterday.Those good-looking ceramic mugs cost the same as hard plastic mugs from the Soviet Union.I inquired about it, and it was the price department here that issued the approval document, saying that they violated the pricing regulations and fined them.Even if we think that these cups are handicrafts, artistic and completely different from those hard plastics, Lao Maozi's price department doesn't listen at all.
There are many people buying things at the counter now, but I am not optimistic at all.Although it is said that small profits are quick to sell, such pricing does not even cover the cost. I am afraid that the more you sell, the more you will lose.It is said that this ceramic products factory was originally a cooperative project between the local governments of China and the Soviet Union, and it has become like this. Can I, a person with no background, only rely on trains to resell materials? '
Yue Cangzhou is not a person without worries. He is good at investing, but here he feels that he has no way to start, and he doesn't know where to start.The key is that there must be huge profits, and there is no such business from a logical point of view.
As the letter said, is there no shortage of things in the Soviet Union?Lack! But ceramic factories with a background cannot escape the fate of failure, because the prices here are fixed, and their exquisite products are actually priced at the same price as hard plastics. Business in a foreign country is not so easy.It seems that the spring of Soviet industry has not yet come.
This kind of emotion is only suitable for talking to Gu Yao, and he has to pretend to be very calm in front of other people, at least Donald is still waiting for his touch to turn a stone into gold.
Gu Yao can't give Yue Cangzhou any advice on business. He doesn't know much about it. Except for what he saw in the crew, he always talks about things that Yue Cangzhou doesn't understand at all. The remnants of blue and white can be repaired. What kind of history is behind this thing? It has passed through the hands of high-ranking officials, but now it has also flown into the homes of ordinary people.It's a pity that he can't afford the materials used to repair this Yuan blue and white.
Gu Yao sounds a little out of date. In this era of rapid change, like a green pine planted in a busy city, although it is stained with red dust, it still lets wind from east to west.But it was the stories in these piles of old papers that calmed Yue Cangzhou's impetuous mood.
There was a 'click' sound of the door opening, and Donald saw Yue Cangzhou in front of the desk, "I'm writing letters again."
Yue Cangzhou saw the sweaty Donald, who was about to take a shower, "Didn't you go to meet your old classmates, it's so cold outside, you can sweat all over?"
"The meeting is in the morning, and I am back from sports." Donald said casually about his recent busy work, "I recently found someone to practice kung fu with, and that is Mochevsky next door. At the back of the school, I learned Tai Chi from a physical education teacher from China. Are you interested too?"
Yue Cangzhou looked at the golden-haired Donald, he learns Tai Chi?Really crazy.The image gap between this person and Zhang Sanfeng is too great to make up for.The so-called physical education teacher from China is really not cheating money?
"You paid tuition, how much?"
"Oh! Yue, you can't be so vulgar, how can you talk about money when you practice kung fu! If it weren't for our sincerity, Master Wang would not accept us." Donald said in a fuss, and questioned Yue Zangzhou's idea of calculating the price of everything, " He taught us for free, and this kind of mentoring relationship cannot be bought with money. Of course, I cannot owe this debt for nothing, and I am also teaching his children English, which can be regarded as learning from each other."
Yue Cangzhou could only sigh in his heart, maybe people in this era are more simple?No longer entangled in this issue, it is obvious that Donald, an American, has lost his mind in the study of 'Kung Fu'.
"I look forward to your success in your studies. By the way, Asakawa from upstairs invited us to spend New Year's Day together and eat neon hot pot. I also plan to cook two dishes. Do you have time that day?"
"Of course!" Donald wanted to drool when he heard the hot pot. Even though he is an American, he is used to steak and potatoes, but he really kneels down to the food of the Soviet Union. There are too many choices compared to the American ones. At least he has to eat Seafood is hard.It would be nice to be able to eat hot pot this time.
**
There should be a celebration in the Kremlin that night, but after the four of Yue Cangzhou had a big meal, there were actually two of them sitting in front of the TV watching martial arts movies!Such a choice is naturally the favorite of Donald and Mochevsky, while Asakawa Sakura has no particular preference, and even takes care of the work of washing dishes after meals.
After all, Yue Cangzhou was too embarrassed to let the girl do all the work. She did everything from preparing ingredients before meals to cleaning up after meals, while the three men were watching TV on the sofa.
So Yue Cangzhou still took the initiative to help put away the dishes. In fact, the fundamental reason was that he really didn't have any interest in the martial arts movie being played. If there was no fault in his memory, Donald had already played this movie for the third time.
"Yue Jun, I can come alone." Asakawa Sakura seemed to be very used to such a situation, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with her doing everything.
Yue Cangzhou recalled that in island countries, women generally take care of the housework, and now it is far from 20 years later, but this is his family, "You have worked hard, and I can do these things."
Asakawa Sakura didn't insist, she wiped the stove instead, and chatted casually to keep the scene from being too quiet, "Didn't Mr. Yue want to study here? Do you still want to do business on the train after the New Year?"
"You've heard of it too?" Yue Zangzhou actually felt a little confused about Asakawa Sakura's coming to the Soviet Union to learn Russian.The relationship between the island country and the Soviet Union is definitely not good, and most Neon people go to the United States to develop.
"I just heard some talk from my classmates." Asakawa Sakura's voice was gentle and unchanging, "There are individual businessmen like Yue Jun, but many of them have their own gangs. I heard that they are divided according to regions. In Wenzhou in the south, in the capital area, and in Heilongjiang in the north, the Chinese pay attention to the solidarity of the villagers, so the more people there are, the faster they can make money. Some of my classmates who work in the capital have asked me to do it a few times, and they can also earn a lot of money. Half a year's living expenses."
Yue Cangzhou paused when he heard the action of washing dishes here, he turned his head to look at Asakawa Sakura, and just met her gaze, but his expression was still calm.But those two sentences just now have stirred Yue Zangzhou's mind, this kind of understanding is not at all like a superficial understanding. "Asakawa-san is amazing, and he knows such details. I also ran several times before I knew the distribution of forces on the train."
So, how can you say it so lightly, this is not the era when you can find many things with a network cable.
"It's not surprising, girls like gossip." Asakawa Sakura raised her head and replied naturally, "I just listen to these when I have nothing to do. Not only the things on the train, but I have also heard a lot about the scams in the Red Square market. Well, when I first got here, I was also cheated out of twenty dollars."
"Oh? For a beautiful and gentle person like Asakawa-san, there are people who have the heart to lie to him. That's really inappropriate." Yue Zangzhou said with a hint of teasing, as if the distance between the two was shortened, but Asakawa Sakura was already in his heart. Putting it in a position that needs to be dealt with, he is not really 16 years old, and anyone can share a little secret with him to make friends.
"Isn't there another sentence that same-sex repels? I met a female liar. Yue Jun must be careful in the future. I remember your Mr. Jin said in the book that beautiful women are the most deceptive." Asakawa Even though Sakura said this, she didn't feel much upset, and didn't care about the money she lost.
Yue Cangzhou couldn't help but pay attention to Asakawa Sakura, that Yin Susu's famous saying was said from a neon mouth, or from a beautiful woman, there was always something weird about it.
Sixteen chapters
"I wanted to buy a piano that time." Asakawa Sakura didn't care about Yue Zangzhou's suspicion, but just talked about the experience of being cheated.
"We all know that money is not enough to buy something in the Soviet Union. Items like pianos have to be lined up in advance. When I first came here, I thought the pianos here were cheaper, so I wanted to buy one. In the mall I met a girl who was registering goods. She said that there were a lot of people queuing up for registration in front of her. If she followed the normal procedures, she would have to wait at least a year. It is not impossible for me to open a door of convenience. As long as I pay an extra $20, I will help me The name was moved to the front. I looked at the registration book in her hand, and it was really densely packed with names, and it took a long time to wait in the regular queue. Because I was not short of the twenty dollars, I believed her this time, and then took the note , Waiting for someone to contact me about the specific delivery arrangements after a month, who knows, there is no news at all after a month.
I went to the mall again, looking for this girl, but there was no one there.After careful inquiry, I realized that the unified registration of pianos is on the top and seventh floors of the shopping mall, and that Anna is not their employee at all.That registration book does not have my name on it at all.With my twenty dollars, that person can exchange at least six thousand rubles on the black market. "
Yue Zangzhou guessed that if this story is true, then the Soviet girl who lied to Asakawa Sakura should grow up harmless to humans and animals, and she is the well-trained Khlestakov. Pass.It's just that what is the purpose of Asakawa Sakura saying this?
Asakawa Sakura had already cleaned the kitchen, put away the apron, brought four glasses of drinks to the living room, and started watching martial arts movies.From time to time, I discussed with Donald and Mochevsky that this move is good, and it is more practical than the one in a certain movie.
**
After seeing off Asakawa Sakura and Mochevsky, Yue Zangzhou told Donald what he had just heard, mainly to let him have a better understanding and not to be cheated in the market.The Soviets like to pick people who have US dollars, so that they can double their profits in the foreign exchange market.
"Asakawa-san is really a good person." After listening to Donald, he said this first, "We got her advice, and we can avoid some detours."
"Is that not bad?" Yue Cangzhou couldn't keep up with Donald's brain circuit, but he just talked about one thing she encountered. Although it surpassed the casual chat of meeting by chance, it didn't rise to a certain level.
Donald also asked slightly puzzled, "Isn't it? You see, Asakawa-san told you before that you shouldn't trust the words of a beautiful woman, and then she told you what happened to her. Don't forget that she is also a woman. Speaking frankly like this, we are not afraid of causing our defenses and misunderstandings about her, just to prevent us from being deceived, isn't it a good person?
In fact, she doesn't seem to keep a distance from people like she seems. She also proposed this dinner, so that we can get closer.Moreover, he is careful in doing things, and even cleans up after meals. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is considerate and considerate.What more can you ask for?I also think that Asakawa-san may take care of Yue as a younger brother. "
Is this how normal people should think?Yue Cangzhou thought about Donald's words carefully. According to the general logic, there is no problem with this understanding, the other party just wants to make friends.I am also six or seven years younger than her, is the other party reminding me to take care of myself?
"I think Yue, your thinking is always a little different from ordinary people." Suddenly Donald said this directly, which surprised Yue Cangzhou, "It's not that there is anything wrong with it, but there is always something weird about it. Weird. For example, it’s about kung fu. As far as I know, everyone likes to watch martial arts movies. Today, Asakawa-san also said that many people in island countries like Huaguo Kung Fu. Mochevsky also said that there are many people in the Soviet Union. It fascinates, and even in Beijing, many people insist on practicing Kung Fu.
I have also been to the martial arts gym in the capital, and there are many young people practicing kung fu.But Yue can always look at it rationally, as if he thinks this thing is unreasonable.In fact, I also somewhat understand that the possibility of practicing flying over the roof and walls is very low, but it is also good to keep fit, why do you have a slight rejection? "
"Do I have it?" Yue Cangzhou also asked himself, and then he realized that what Donald said was not necessarily wrong.Because he knew that this trend was destined to recede, and it exited in a state of annihilation, and later it involved issues of national security.Therefore, he was doomed not to understand the fanaticism of people in this era who almost lost their minds, and almost subconsciously he looked down on these deceitful things.
However, Donald's words are correct. He habitually looks at problems with the perspective of 20 years later. This is a kind of advanced help, but it will also blind him.
Donald was still talking, "I don't know if you have any. But it's true that you don't care. You shouldn't know that there were articles on martial arts in the "Pravda" in April 90. This is a Soviet article. The official newspaper! The most authoritative newspaper in the Soviet Union!"
"Is there such news?" Of course, Yue Cangzhou knew about Pravda, which was the most authoritative newspaper in the Soviet Union. It can be said that from the beginning of its publication by the Russian Communist Party, it has been the most faithful to Soviet news theory in the past 80 years. Practitioners and leaders of China should say that it is equivalent to the domestic "Guangming Daily" in terms of similar comparison status.
Yue Cangzhou didn't delay, and looked for it directly. In order to understand the dynamics of the Soviet Union, he had a lot of stockpiles here, and the "Pravda" in April 90 was definitely among them.
Then, in the fourth edition of the issue on April 1990, 4, Yue Cangzhou saw a long report about a sinologist visiting Henan Shaolin Temple, which was very long and very positive.
Seeing that Yue Cangzhou was finally willing to face up to the kung fu that he had been thinking about, Donald said a few more words, "Yue, I knew you didn't care about this. Look, I still have the magazine "Soviet Sports" here, but I and Mo Che Fowski managed to snatch it up. The magazine was out of stock as soon as it hit the market. If it weren’t for Mochevsky’s good relationship with the boss, we wouldn’t have bought a copy. You can see that there are many detailed explanations of kung fu in it. I decided to go to the Songshan Shaolin Temple in Huaguo this year, and maybe I could meet an eminent monk as well."
Yue Cangzhou has already turned a deaf ear to Donald's later words. He never counts on such stalks as the high monks in the mountains. Is there anyone else who can explain why he has a new life?
He took the "Soviet Sports" and saw that this issue contained reports on the Huaguo Wu Qinxi with pictures, and explanations of every step of the movement. Absolutely rich in pictures and texts, very vivid.
Yue Cangzhou closed the magazine, he had to make sure of one thing, "Are all introductions to Kung Fu like this selling well?"
"Of course there are a lot of them, and I bought some from street stalls myself. There are quite a few small bookstalls at the entrance of the Moscow subway, and there are all the hottest novels on them. Unfortunately, I can't read Russian, but the cover is printed with I am not mistaken about the ancient Chinese people. And Mochevsky said that among the students he taught, almost no one in the Soviet dormitory did not put up posters of Bruce Lee. He is an idol of the whole people, but unfortunately he is no longer alive. Yes. But Hong Kong Island’s Jackie Chan is also very famous, and Mochefsky has a poster of him.”
"You mean that many people are obsessed with kung fu, but I remember that the Soviets were more optimistic about their martial arts masters than Chinese kung fu." Yue Cangzhou didn't know much about the sports world, and he remembered that there seemed to be Russian fighters in the United States. The radio station publicly said such big words, Huaguo Kung Fu is a fighting skill for the incompetent!
"Oh! Yue, who did you listen to?!" Donald felt that someone must have instilled something extremely absurd in Yue Cangzhou, "You should have let me know that you were led into such a prejudice, you never watch TV Don’t you know that martial arts is a craze in the whole Soviet Union, and we never get tired of watching martial arts movies several times. A few years ago, the All-Su Huaguo Wushu Association was established, and the global program of the Soviet Central Television was almost always a topic of Huaguo Wushu I have watched the previous videos, and there is a theory put forward in it, such as judo and boxing are just for people to practice external skills, while Huaguo Kungfu such as Taijiquan is to exercise internal skills, more practice can also make people People are getting smarter. You really don't know?"
Yue Cangzhou's mind was a little messed up. Tonight, he was popularized as a raging trend of being around him, but he was like a person from a different dimension. He had clearly seen a master like Gu Yao, but he turned a deaf ear to it.
Therefore, on January 1991, [-], Yue Cangzhou was in no mood to pay attention to other things at the beginning of the new year. He spent a day reading all the relevant news.I finally realized what the meaning of Huaguo Kung Fu is at this time.
The phrase 'the martial art of the incompetent' was spoken more than 20 years later.If one dared to speak out publicly in this Soviet era when Chinese martial arts movies flooded the country, he would definitely be drowned by the spitting of every single person in the Soviet Union.
Hehe, Yue Cangzhou is a little dumbfounded at this situation. What Donald said is true, even worse than this. This is a national craze. He asked Professor Ivan, and the old gentleman was also eloquent. He actually I also plan to find a Hua Guo martial arts school to learn Kung Fu after arriving in the United States.
Hearing this sentence, Yue Cangzhou felt mixed emotions. It turned out that Huaguo culture had become popular abroad in the same way before he didn't realize it, almost to the point of blindness.Huaguo's movies and Huaguo's martial arts are all weather vanes. When will such influence cease?When Huaguo manufacturing spread all over the world, there are no more foreigners who sincerely admire Huaguo culture.
Yue Cangzhou was a little confused, his thinking was ahead of his time, but those who are half a step ahead are geniuses, and those who are one step ahead are madmen.He saw that the thinking of this era is 20 years behind the people here. These 20 years have been the most turbulent 20 years of global change. Numerous old rules have been broken and many new viewpoints have been derived.
This sounded a wake-up call for Yue Cangzhou, he had to correct himself, detachment was also a departure from the times, he could not break away from the rhythm of the times.
Even so, he still has reservations about some points, such as Asakawa Sakura.After reflecting on himself, Yue Cangzhou paid more attention to Asakawa Sakura, because her knowledge is beyond the level of ordinary people.
However, none of these were put on the surface, and now Yue Cangzhou finally found a way of making money by his side.
The author has something to say:
seventeen chapters
Think about it and do it!The first step in this matter is to see how the martial arts market in the Soviet Union is.
Yue Cangzhou's first step was to focus on the video tapes brought by Donald. According to Mochevsky, who watched with him, none of these films had been brought into the cinema.
In this era, there are only a small number of foreign films that can be introduced into cinemas. If you want to watch foreign movies and TV, you can only rent video tapes or go to those privately opened video halls before the omnipotent network bypass technology. Go to the movies.
How many Soviet people understand Chinese?Yue Cangzhou read those so-called best-selling martial arts novels sold at small stalls. They were all shoddy translations, sometimes really unsightly. Most of these books were pirated.But there are also many people who buy it, which shows how popular Kung Fu is.
So why not see how many people these translated videos can attract to watch the movie.
Yue Cangzhou had a clear goal, and first released Donald's pile of videotapes one by one. He held back the complaints about the plot and characters in his heart, and spent five days translating all these videotapes into Russian. Version.
At the same time, Donald listened to Yue Cangzhou's suggestion. They only had tapes in their hands, but they had no roots in the Soviet Union. They must find a reliable partner. Mochevsky, who also loves martial arts movies, is one. A very good candidate. His younger brother just happened to open such a video studio, and the rich water would not flow to outsiders. This first step of a sure-win business was handed over to Mochevsky.
Don't look at Donald's lack of rationality when it comes to kung fu, but once he heard Yue Cangzhou say that their love can be turned into real money, his mind suddenly cleared up.As I mentioned earlier, one of his alumni also came to Moscow. That person is called Tom, and his brother is named Jerry. I don’t know if my parents watched too many cartoons when they named it.Looking back, Jerry is not a student of Princeton University, but he is also a graduate of the law department of a prestigious school, and he is very proficient in this aspect of business terms.
At Business Talk Business, formal business cooperation is always inseparable from a good lawyer.Yue Cangzhou took over the affairs of translation technology, and other trivial matters were handed over to Donald.
Donald was not sure at first, but after this investigation, he found out that in the gray area, the transaction value of such video tapes is very high.The more abundant entertainment activities are lacking, the more expensive entertainment products imported informally will be able to command high prices.If they are accompanied by a Russian translation, they will definitely earn a lot of money.If the level of translation is excellent, it is not difficult at all to ask for tens of thousands of rubles for a tape, but it is only a drop in the bucket compared to the money that a video studio can make.The number of people who go to watch the movie is large, so we only charge the entrance fee, and if we accumulate less, we can earn back the money paid for the translation tape in one session.
The video room in Mochevsky's home is not large, but he didn't hesitate to eat the twenty tapes at once.Mochevsky knew that although Yue Cangzhou didn't have a diploma, his Russian level was not much worse than that of doctoral students in those schools.The key is that language must be used, especially when the audience is ordinary people. What they need is not professional terminology, but a translation that can be understood and smiled.In this regard, it is really difficult to find a person who can surpass Yue Zangzhou with rich language knowledge.
Experts look at the doorway.Anyone who has read foreign works knows that in the absence of familiarity with the native language of the other party, a good translation can make a work, and a poor translation can ruin a work.It can be said that these twenty third-rate martial arts movies were translated by Yue Cangzhou, and they were immediately upgraded to a higher level.
So without blinking, the Mochevsky family ate the twenty tapes at a price of 120 tapes.Regardless of the high price, this was buying out Yue Cangzhou's translator at once, and he couldn't sell the same film to another company.But it is not a small sum to come up with 60 million rubles all at once.They can't come up with this large amount of working capital for the time being. Under Donald's negotiation, they will finally pay half of the [-] yuan first, and then pay the other half after the film in the video hall becomes popular. Big red packets.
Yue Cangzhou packed these video tapes in big bags, and Mochevsky loaded them into the car as carefully as if he was holding a gold brick.
Donald still seemed to be dreaming. Just an hour ago, he got 60 rubles like a white wolf with empty hands.
60!Not six thousand!Not sixty thousand!
It can be said that if converted into U.S. dollars, even at the black market price, the [-] U.S. dollars earned in these ten days is the per capita income of the United States for half a year!
Not to mention the conversion into RMB, 10 RMB can definitely become the ranks of rich people.
The key is how much they paid. These twenty tapes definitely don't exceed one hundred dollars, which is a fraction of a dollar!
No, Donald felt that he had to be quiet, don't ask who Jing was.
Then, according to Yue Cangzhou, he should never hold rubles, and try to exchange them for US dollars or other western currencies.So the big box shrank into two envelopes containing [-] and [-] dollars respectively.
He stared at the envelopes containing [-] dollars on the table with glowing eyes, then shook his head pretendingly, "Actually, it's not very thick, and it's not so thick that it can smash me to death."
It would be even better if Donald looked at Yue Cangzhou with less fanaticism.
Why are some people who are also born as human beings with golden fingers that can turn stones into gold?This unscientific!
However, science is not required, and science may not necessarily be converted into dollars, but Yue Cangzhou can.Donald had already despised himself, obviously he had brought the video, but he only saw the kung fu in it, but Yue Cangzhou saw [-] rubles hidden behind a tape.What is the gap? This is the gap, the gap that can make people vomit blood.In the beginning, Yue Cangzhou was blind and didn't pay much attention to kung fu, and it didn't matter if he didn't pay attention to co-authorship.I heard that there is a God of Wealth in Huaguo, so he can worship Yue Zangzhou in the future.
Yue Cangzhou took his share. This time, he and Donald were split [-]-[-]. He got [-] and the other [-]. It was really a worthless business.This further reflects that knowledge is very profitable, and there will be a day when studying well will be useful.
But Yue Cangzhou was very calm, it was only [-] US dollars, and he could pay off the debts owed by his uncle and himself.
After the final payment and the red envelope arrive, the total will be 25 US dollars, [-] RMB.Donald just said you, can you calm down and don't act like you have never seen the money.
"Yue, that's not right, God Yue, see if I go back to the capital once and bring another batch of tapes." Donald also knew that now the market is dominated by sellers, and the Soviets have no access to well-translated martial arts movies. , then ten days a million rubles is not a dream.Video halls like the one in Mochevsky’s house are spread all over the Soviet Union. This time, I promised them not to sell the same film translation tapes to others, but they can translate new films. This is not a violation.Next time, I won't do a one-shot deal, even if it's only [-] yuan per set, but if you go to a few more stores, you can earn more than this time.
"No." Yue Cangzhou cruelly crushed Donald's dream with two words.
"Why?" Donald stared at Yue Cangzhou with wide eyes in bewilderment, should he let such a business with no profit at all?
Yue Cangzhou looked at Donald with hatred, but fortunately he came from the United States, so he had no sense of genuineness at all. "I made this order just to test the waters. You think my wisdom is only [-] rubles a tape? Such a cheap price?"

2. The background of the article, such as the situation in the Soviet Union, is adapted from historical facts, and the situation in the general environment is the real social status at that time.Seems amazing, but they really happened,
However, the author did not go to the Soviet Union at that time, but according to the description of the materials, there may be errors (⊙o⊙)
Eighteen chapters
Donald was choked by Yue Cangzhou's tone, [-] US dollars for ten days is still cheap, so how much does it cost to make him fancy.Although Asking himself is also a long-term viewer, Donald thinks that they should not be too ambitious. In fact, to put it bluntly, people cannot push the money they get out.If he wasn't proficient in Russian, he would have rolled up his sleeves and done it himself.How many copies can be turned over is how many copies, there is no need to worry about market saturation, the Soviet Union is so big, and there are so many people chasing movies, so there is no need to worry about selling, but not enough movies.
Yue Cangzhou glanced lightly at Donald, who had fallen into the eyes of Qian. From this incident, he could already see that his thinking in communicating and negotiating with outsiders is still good. As expected, he studied sociology and minored in psychology. The grasp is deeper than others.Although there is still a lot of immaturity, the best learning is in practice.
"Drink some water and calm down." Yue Cangzhou poured a glass of cold water into Donald's glass, and now he needs to cool down. "Money is just a number, so don't take it too seriously, and don't plunge into it."
Donald gave Yue Cangzhou an angry look, "Why are you so fake when you say this? Others can say it, so forget it. If I plunged into Qian's eye, you would have already shouted inside. Your ancestors all said don’t laugh at fifty steps in a hundred steps.”
Yue Cangzhou shook his head, the use of this allusion is still not in place, and he needs to learn more, and now Donald needs to learn the word patience, "I didn't say to stop here, why are you in a hurry. Let me ask you, what are you doing now? Do you think it is appropriate? Although the accumulation of capital is always full of blood, which big capitalist did not do some cruel things when he made his fortune. But if it can be avoided, it is better to set a bottom line from the beginning. We rely on translation Video tapes can make money, but it is not legal. Those video halls do not have authorization to show movies. To put it bluntly, we are porters, stepping on the shoulders of others, helping them spread the fruits of their labor abroad, so that the Soviets Appreciate the beauty of Chinese culture. But if you say a thousand words and ten thousand, you are actually just a thief, using the fruits of other people's labor for nothing, and no matter how much you earn, I feel that this money is hot."
When Donald heard Yue Cangzhou say this, all the excitement on his face faded away, and what they did was not qualitatively different from piracy. Maybe they took advantage of legal loopholes, but they always couldn't stand firm on the ground.If the other party really cares about it, there is every reason to file a lawsuit.
Perhaps, some people will scold them why they have to think so much since they have done it, but some things really can't be done once.Donald is not a fool, he immediately understood what Yue Cangzhou meant, "You want to do it yourself? But we don't have the capital to make movies, do we?"
Yue Cangzhou looked at Donald, and touched his forehead in surprise, "I don't have a fever, why did I hear someone talking nonsense, who said that a movie is going to be made? Even if it is made, the Soviet Union will not import it, and you are still an American. Want to open a film company in the Soviet Union? Our small amount of money is not enough.”
Donald shut up, he wanted to hear what Yue Cangzhou had to say.
"Of course, movies are the best way to make money. If I have the capital of the Shao family on Hong Kong Island, then I will also seize the opportunity of this golden age. If one day we really make it, you want to enter this industry. I have no objection either. However, it’s better to be down-to-earth now.” Yue Cangzhou agreed with Donald’s daydream, who hasn’t had a dream.
Instead, Yue Cangzhou took out his own plan and put it in the Tang Dynasty.
