While Soros and the rest were down on their luck, Kirilenko was having a good time.
Russia had adjusted some of its companies' strategies to control the proportion of foreign companies' shares. With the withdrawal of foreign investors, the market value of many Russian companies had dropped.
At this time, Feng Yu also came to Russia with Kirilenko. He and Kirilenko are going to invest in more mines.
"Feng, did you see that? This mountain will be ours in the future. Do you know how much we spent? "Kirilenko had a proud look on his face.
"This area is worth at least 1 billion USD based on the mineral content and the years of mining, right?"
"No, no, no. We are using Rubles to calculate. I had spent 1.1 billion USD worth of Rubles at that time. But now, it is only about 700 million USD. "
Feng Yu raised his brows. Kirilenko had done a good job. This was a good deal. Feng Yu does not know how Kirilenko got his men to agree to use Rubles for this transaction.
This non-ferrous metal mine will belong to their mining company in the future. Kirilenko had not brought him here to tell him that he had bought a mine.
Kirilenko pointed to a map on the table. "Some of our mines are too far away from here. I will not bring you around. This oil field is ours. This is coal. It's ours. This is natural gas. It's ours. This is also non-ferrous metal. This is the most common iron ore, but it is very rich in minerals! "
As he spoke, Kirilenko drew circles on the map with his pen. Every stroke was bold and unrestrained.
"How much do we need to pay for these mines?"
"About 5 billion USD. The contracts had been signed, and we are just waiting for your funds." Kirilenko replied happily.
"Ok. I will call them when I get back and ask them to transfer the funds to you." Feng Yu nodded. The prices of minerals will increase in one to two years. At that time, the value of these mines will increase by several folds!
Moreover, he could also use it himself. He could set up one or two chemical factories, metal processing factories, and so on. He could also obtain higher profits.
But Feng Yu is disappointed that Russia has some regulations on foreign companies. The shares of strategic companies cannot exceed 50%, and some even cannot exceed 25%. This mining company has the license to produce special metals, which can be used to manufacture weapons. So, Feng Yu gave 2% of the company's shares to the Russian executives.
Of course, Kirilenko also compensated Feng Yu with a sum of money. These 2% shares were given to the executives of those companies.
The executives were excited. The market value of this mining company was close to 10 billion USD, and 2% was close to 200 million USD.
Although the shares were split among a few dozen of them, the smallest share was worth millions of USD, and the largest share was worth more than 20 million USD!
They all sighed. They had followed the right boss, and they all put on a look of loyalty, which made Kirilenko especially proud.
"Lev, our mining company had not made any profits for the past few years, and all of you are only getting basic salaries. All of you deserve this. After all, all of you had contributed a lot to the company. Of course, all of you must thank Feng. Without him, our mining company will not be where it is today! "
Lev and the executives of the mining company thanked Feng Yu, but Feng Yu's face changed.
Damn! Why are all of you raising your glasses? That was fucking vodka! I don't like to drink!
But Feng Yu could not reject this kind of hospitality. He could only bite the bullet and finish the glass of vodka. After that, he expressed that he still likes to drink beer. He had heard that Russian beer tastes good.
After saying this, Feng Yu regretted. Damn! Can't you all drink beer from a small glass? Why are you all using beer mugs?
Also, this is not an ordinary beer mug. This is a 1 liter beer mug!
After finishing the mug of beer, Feng Yu used the excuse of going to the toilet to hide. Is Kirilenko's company all have this drinking culture? Or are all Russian companies like this?!
I am here for an inspection. How did it turn into a cocktail party?
After a while, Feng Yu saw Kirilenko coming to the bathroom to pee. He should have drunk a lot of beer.
"Feng, why are you still here? Many people want to have a drink with you."
Feng Yu was shocked. "Errr … I have diarrhea and should not drink!"
"That's a pity. I had asked my men to send 10 kegs of beer over. Seems like you will not be able to enjoy it. Do you want to go to our company's hospital for a check-up? "Kirilenko asked.
"No need. I will be fine after resting for a while."
"Ok. Wait for me for a while. I will go and have a drink with them before sending you back to rest."
Feng Yu is satisfied with this arrangement. Feng Yu felt drinking in moderation is good. A small amount of alcohol can make people excited, and there is no need to drink so much every time. Anyway, Feng Yu does not agree with Kirilenko's theory of drinking without getting drunk.
After a while, Kirilenko came out with a few men behind him. They are holding bottles of beer in their hands.
"Feng, look. Everyone is so happy. In the future, we will be Russia's biggest private mining company. Maybe we will be the world's biggest in the future! "
"Brother Ki, remember what I told you. You must buy insurance for everyone and pay attention to their safety. Human lives are priceless!" Feng Yu reminded Kirilenko. Kirilenko wonders if Kirilenko had listened to him.
"Don't worry. I had told Lev and the rest about this. Our mining company is now a safety demonstration company in Russia's mining industry, and I will not skimp on insurance. Those companies are all Russians, and I will not let anything happen to them! "
Feng Yu nodded. This is good. Normal operations can bring in high profits, and there is no need to put the workers in danger just to save on insurance.
"Oh, I have a piece of good news for you. Our supermarket is opening soon!"
"So soon? Didn't you tell me last month that the location of the supermarket is still not decided? "Feng Yu is puzzled. Even if the location is decided quickly, what about the renovations? Marketing? A month's time was simply not enough, right?
"Hahaha … I had discussed with the boss of the second-biggest supermarket chain in Russia. We will invest in their supermarket group. He will own 30% of the shares, and you will own 30%. I will own 40%. Isn't this much easier?"
This is an idea Kirilenko's men came up with for him. Although it will cost a little more, Russia's economy is not doing well, and the boss of that supermarket chain is suffering losses. He cannot get loans from the banks, and he owes the banks a lot. Russia's banks had imposed strict restrictions on loans.
This is a good opportunity for Kirilenko to invest in that supermarket chain and set up 20 new supermarkets based on the locations of that supermarket chain. He will become Russia's biggest supermarket group.
"Feng, I am very happy. Drink with me tonight!"
Feng Yu's eyes opened wide. Damn! You want me to drink with you again? Can I have tea with you?
