After leaving Yuan Xinwu's place, Feng Yu went to look for Kirilenko.
"Brother Ki, what's wrong with your cooperation with Alexander?"
Kirilenko looked at Feng Yu. "It's a normal business cooperation. He is the President's youngest son, and what's wrong with me working with him? Are you not going to work with him and instead look for those second-generations? "
"No … I am asking Alexander's father. Isn't he anti-corruption? Why would he allow his son to do business? Also, his son is one of China's top tycoons, and this will affect his political career. "Feng Yu asked.
"Hahaha … Feng, I think I did not explain clearly to you. The company that Alexander is working with is a state-owned enterprise! Alexander is only the liaison for this enterprise. Hmmm … he is a junior leader now. Didn't you notice that his house isn't very big? Also, the places we stayed in were all government hotels. "
Huh?
Kirilenko is working with a Belarus state-owned enterprise, and Alexander is one of the representatives? No wonder Feng Yu felt that Alexander's cars and houses were not compatible with his status as a tycoon. So, this was the reason.
"Feng, our partners are from a few state-owned enterprises. Of course, many of them are like Brother Ke. Different countries have different national conditions. You should understand this, right? "
Feng Yu bit the bullet and said: "Of course I know. I am just asking."
Feng Yu realized he needs to change his strategy. Feng Yu had planned to give Alexander more money to lower the prices of the technologies. But now, it seems this will not work.
Actually, Feng Yu was not very confident about this business negotiation. His team cannot participate in the negotiations, and Feng Yu can only negotiate alone. This was much more difficult.
Luckily, Feng Yu is alone, and the other party's negotiator can only be one person. From the looks of it, this person is Alexander.
However, Alexander definitely had a strong team behind him. As for Hua Xia's side, they were all technical talents. Feng Yu even suspected that they didn't know how to evaluate the price of the information.
In the eyes of these engineers, some information may be priceless, but in the eyes of businessmen, these information must be measured by money.
Feng Yu regretted it a little. If he had known this would happen, he would have asked the country to send at least two people who had participated in similar negotiations, so that Feng Yu could use the price as a reference.
Although Feng Yu didn't care much about money at the moment, he didn't want to throw it to outsiders for nothing, right?
Even if he were to donate, he would donate to Hua Xia so that his own people could benefit. Feng Yu didn't know why he had such a narrow-minded mindset, but he wasn't going to change it.
Yes, it would never change!
"Feng, I can only be the middleman this time and help you to contact him. I will not interfere with the rest. I hope you can understand."
"Brother Ki, you don't need to explain to me. I am already very grateful that you can contact me. Also, you know me. I don't care about money when it comes to things I like. I don't mind spending more. "
Kirilenko kept quiet for a while and looked into Feng Yu's eyes. "Feng, after you return to China, I will tell my father about this. My father might report this to his higher-ups. Do you understand what I mean?"
Feng Yu understood what Kirilenko meant. The Russian Government must know about this, but only after the transaction is completed.
Kirilenko is a Russian, and Feng Yu can understand this. Kirilenko was willing to tell Feng Yu about this, and Feng Yu is very grateful.
"Don't worry, Brother Ki. Our relationship will only get better and will not drift apart. Also, I believe the relationship between our two countries will get better. "
Hua Xia and Russia do not have many conflicts of interest, and the US is also there. That's why even though both countries are neighboring countries and are very powerful, there will not be any wars.
Of course, some small conflicts would occur between any two countries. These were unavoidable.
… …
Feng Yu returned to his room and start reading the documents Yuan Xinwu brought him.
Feng Yu put down the documents after reading half of it. He is still thinking about Alexander.
If Lukashenko needs money to be re-elected as the President, then Alexander must be representing Lukashenko to sell these technologies to Feng Yu. No … he must be representing Lukashenko.
No wonder Alexander agreed immediately when Feng Yu asked Kirilenko to contact him. Feng Yu even suspects that Lukashenko had wanted to sell these technologies. After all, Belarus is not near the sea and does not have a naval army. Those technologies are useless to them.
Belarus can dock their merchant ships at other countries' ports, but it is impossible for them to dock their warships. Although the Commonwealth of Independent States had been cooperating with each other, their cooperation is limited.
Furthermore, maintaining a naval army requires a lot of expenditure, and this is a huge burden for Belarus. After all, this country only has a population of 10 million, and its annual income is only a few billion USD.
Hong Kong and Belarus can be compared. Hong Kong's income is higher than Belarus, but its population is lesser. Hong Kong does not need to maintain a military, and Hong Kong's per capita income is much higher. The government also has more funds for the people's livelihood.
That's why Belarus can be considered a poor country, and its people's happiness index is not high.
Lukashenko had announced that anyone who retires will be able to get a pension. Just this alone is enough to make the people support him. Furthermore, Lukashenko had announced that he will increase the investments in education, health care, culture, etc., and the people support him even more.
But all these require money.
Without money, those could only be slogans, empty promises. If Lukashenko wants to be re-elected, he must do something to make the people believe that he can make their lives better.
Feng Yu suddenly remembered something. Yuan Xinwu had told him that Hua Xia had contacted Belarus many times, and they must have discussed this. After that, Hua Xia went to Ukraine to purchase an aircraft carrier, which is also short of funds. But Hua Xia only managed to buy a half-built aircraft carrier with all its weapons removed.
This time, Alexander had contacted Kirilenko, and he immediately agreed. Could it be that Alexander had treated Feng Yu as Hua Xia's representative or agent?
Feng Yu thought about it and felt this is possible. No one will expect Feng Yu to personally pay for these technologies and donate them to the country.
No tycoon in the world had done this.
Since Kirilenko thinks he is Hua Xia's agent, then let them think so. Feng Yu wants to make the best of it. Maybe he will have the upper hand in the negotiations.
