Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

"Xu, my dear friend, are you talking about dollars?"

Xu Cun looked at the cautious Peter Shevardnadze and said with a smile, "It can be dollars or rubles."

Today, the dollar-ruble ratio is 1:00.6, and has been at that rate for nearly three decades.

In other words, if Xu Cun invested 10 billion rubles in the Soviet Union, it would be 1.8 billion U.S. dollars when converted into U.S. dollars.

Moreover, what Xu Cun said was at least 10 billion.

In other words, Xu Cun may even invest more than 20 billion U.S. dollars in the Soviet Union.

Peter Shevardnadze first peeked at the reactions of Bush Jr. and Bill Francis Adams, and found that their expressions were as usual—this shows that Bush Jr. and Bill Francis Adams did not doubt that Xu Cun could come up with 20 billion Dollar.

With this judgment, Peter Shevardnadze immediately laughed and said: "Xu, my dearest and dearest friend, there is a saying in your Chinese, yes, it's too late, I'm Peter Shevardnadze Denazir really regrets not getting to know you sooner!"

With a smile on his face, Xu Cun said meaningfully: "Peter, I am a businessman after all, so if the cooperation plan proposed by your Soviet Union can't impress me, or your Soviet Union can't clear the way for me to invest, then I can only You can say sorry to my friend."

Peter Shevardnadze said solemnly: "Don't worry, my friend, if I can't even do this little thing, then I will be ashamed to come out to attract investment!"

There is water in what Peter Shevardnadze said, a lot of water! Moreover, the moisture did not come from within the Soviet Union, which could be easily regulated, but from its opponent, the United States.

After experiencing the global economic recession in the 1970s, the North Sea coastal countries led by the United Kingdom turned their targets to the North Sea oil fields that had been dormant for many years. Therefore, starting from 1980, the North Sea has gradually become an important oil production place in the Western world, which has weakened its dependence on Middle East oil to a certain extent. Of course, this is also the result of the countries in the Middle East. After the defeat in the Middle East war, the countries in the Middle East first blocked the oil of the Western countries, and then raised the price of oil wantonly and arbitrarily to force the Western countries to turn against Israel.

The oil market is so big, and the large-scale development of the North Sea oil fields immediately caused the overall price of oil to plummet.

Back then, when oil prices were high, the shortage of materials caused by the imbalanced development of the Soviet Union’s light and heavy industries could be covered up by a large number of imports—the Soviet Union mainly relied on the contribution of traditional blood transfusion sectors, including the oil and gas industry, to develop its economy.

But when the price of oil plummeted, the Soviet Union was immediately dumbfounded-the rigid economic system made the Soviet Union suddenly fall into poverty.

In the autumn of the previous year, that is, in the autumn of 1985, at the instigation of the United States, Saudi Arabia announced its withdrawal from the OPEC price agreement. The price of world oil fell from 29 to 30 US dollars per barrel to 12 to 15 US dollars immediately, more than half. As a result, the hard currency income of the Soviet state treasury fell sharply. This in turn caused the Soviet Union to suffer even more!

In addition, the United States has been blocking the Soviet Union's oil exploration technology, and even blocked the Soviet Union's natural gas pipelines.

The most ruthless thing is that the United States also asked Saudi Arabia to increase oil production to seize the oil market with the Soviet Union.

In a word, the United States has been suppressing the Soviet Union to make money from oil.

In the last life, some people even said that the reason why the Soviet Union disintegrated was because the United States defeated the Soviet Union with oil.

Therefore, although Xu Cunti's conditions are not many, it is extremely difficult for Peter Shevardnadze and the Soviet Union behind him to achieve them.

Of course, this is not to say that Peter Shevardnadze and the Soviet Union behind him have no possibility of meeting the conditions proposed by Xu Cun-after all, it will not be long before ************ It is not impossible to reach a concession of tens of billions of dollars during the visit to the United States.

Does that mean that Xu Cun would really not invest in the Soviet Union if the Soviet Union could not convince the United States?

How can it be?

The disintegration of the Soviet Union may be the biggest gluttonous feast in this century, including the next century!

Just ask, how could Xu Cun not participate in this feast?

Therefore, regardless of whether Peter Shevardnadze and the Soviet Union behind him can clear the way for Xu Cun to invest in the Soviet Union, Xu Cun must get this P seat in the VIP to participate in this feast.

The difference between the two is simply that one is half-truth investing and the other is all-fake investing.

...

After the four of them played, Bush Jr. made an excuse to visit Xu Cun's home in the United States and walked to Neverland with Xu Cun.

en route.

Bush endured it and said, "Are you really going to the Soviet Union to invest in oil?"

Xu Cun looked at Bush Jr. with a smile and asked back: "Is it not possible?"

After hesitating for a while, Bush Jr. suggested Xu Cun: "For a long time to come, the price of oil should not exceed 20 dollars per barrel. If you invest in oil outside the United States, the possibility of losing money is very high, and the Soviet Union The environment is so special…”

Bush Jr. is a typical American redneck, so he admires Xu Cun, a self-made man, so he couldn't help mentioning Xu Cun whom he regards as a friend.

Of course, this also shows from the side that Bush Jr. is not that mature politician yet.

Xu Cun is definitely the kind of person who reciprocates. When Bush Jr. mentioned him, he couldn't help mentioning Bush Jr.: "Where there is great chaos, there are great opportunities."

Bush Jr. frowned and said, "But what happened in the Soviet Union was not great chaos, but great rigidity. So how could there be great opportunities in a rigid economic environment?"

Xu Cun didn't argue with Bush Jr. - he had already given Bush Jr. the opportunity, and he had fulfilled his duty as a friend. As for whether Bush Jr. could seize it, he had no control over it.

Xu Cun changed his tone, and said again: "Uncle will participate in the presidential election next year?"

Seeing that Xu Cun didn't accept his kindness, Bush Jr. didn't insist on persuading Xu Cun anymore—like Xu Cun, Bush Jr. also believed that he had fulfilled his duty as a friend.

Shaking his head and throwing the conversation with Xu Cun out of his mind just now, Bush Jr. said: "I should participate."

Xu Cun said with a smile: "Then I must do my best to my junior. Hmm... How about I honor my uncle with a billion dollars first?"

"this……"

Bush Jr. was amazed by Xu Cun's generosity, but also hesitated whether he should accept Xu Cun's large amount of funding?

Xu Cun pretended to be stern, and said, "Why, George, can it be that your Bush family can accept political investment from other people, but can't accept political investment from my friend?"

Just like what Wang Xifeng said in "Dream of Red Mansions", there are big difficulties-the Bush family is rich, but it is not an easy task to support such a large family.

Moreover, since both Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. have not yet become the president of the United States, the current Bush family is not one of the four major American families that dominated the American political and American business circles in the previous life.

Therefore, Bush Jr. really has no way of rejecting Xu Cun's funding on behalf of the Bush family, especially such a large amount and continuous follow-up funding!
