Putin knows that he actually has no choice. If he wants to be president, he has to cooperate with the Chinese. Even if the United States can play a certain role in checking and balancing, in fact, the Americans can do too little for him.

And the Chinese can do so much

"Mr. Liao, I am very grateful to my Chinese friends for their support and help, but I also firmly believe that there is no free love in the world, and there is no free lunch. In contrast, what does China want to get?" Putin looked at

He looked at Liao Huairen with a burning gaze and asked rather stiffly.

He is a person with quite a nationalistic complex, and it is not easy for him to do anything to sell out the interests of the country. Qi Yiming also saw this clearly, so he considered a lot of conditions to achieve the goal.

It can be accepted by him and at the same time it will be beneficial to China.

Liao Huairen laughed, saw Putin's intention, and said: "Actually, what we need is not excessive. The first and most important thing is the healthy development and goodwill and friendship of China-Russia relations. I will not use those diplomatic rhetoric. We

We hope that Russia can give more consideration to China’s opinions on many international issues. Of course, we also believe that Russia has its own national interests and cannot always keep the same pace as us, but the general direction still needs to be guaranteed.”

Putin nodded. Even though Russia has declined terribly, its seat on the Five Permanent Stations has been preserved. Now no one will jump out and say that Russia will not continue to be a gangster. Germany, Japan, Brazil, India and other countries do not have the courage. Russia

It still has international influence, which can naturally help China's foreign affairs to a certain extent.

Putin believes that this is not a big problem, and the other party has reserved room for it. Next, he believes that he must try his best to carry out reforms and economic recovery at home. He really does not think much about diplomatic issues, and even if he did, he would not have the ability to intervene.

Because Russia simply doesn’t have the financial resources and energy right now.

"Secondly, we hope that in the process of Russia's reconstruction and economic recovery, the Russian side can give priority to our Chinese companies. Our Chinese companies have a strong ability to restore economic development, which must be obvious to all in recent years. This is beneficial to both parties.

We also hope that Russia can open its domestic market to our country’s commodity exports as much as possible and provide care and preferential treatment for our country’s investment.”

This is not a big problem. With its extraordinary ability in foreign aid and construction, China has brought the three Eastern European countries together in two or three years. Now it is said that the southern region of Iraq is slowly recovering, and it is in line with the central and northern areas controlled by the United States.

The regions are very different. If we can borrow Chinese capital, it can indeed play a relatively large role in economic recovery.

Effect. Moreover, all Russians now know whether the medicine prescribed to Yeltsin by the West is effective. Putin is not good at economics, and he is bound to find foreign aid. Obviously, the country helped by China has not failed.

As for the Western countries, except for the Marshall Plan and the Dodge Plan, basically everything has problems.

"Finally, we still hope that Russia can protect our country's interests in Russia. Of course, we will also provide Russia with most-favored-nation treatment and welcome Russian people to travel, study and work in our country." After saying this, Liao Huairen's face changed.

I couldn't help but blush a little.

How can Russia have interests in China now? So in the final analysis, it is China's interests in Russia. And how do these interests come from? It is not because the Chinese are aggressively "hunting local tyrants and dividing their fields" in the occupied areas during these days. The former private ownership

Vouchers have made many bureaucratic oligarchs cheaper, and now these privatization vouchers have made it cheaper for the Chinese. In just one month, the Chinese have controlled nearly a thousand businesses of all sizes in Russia, including farms, factories, shops, mines, etc.

of enterprises.

The number of these enterprises may not be large compared to the overall Russian economy, but they are all important. By simple calculation, they account for about 15% of the total Russian economy. Moreover, taking into account other factors such as employment, social stability, and national operation, they can be said to be very important.

The impact on the Russian economy is huge.

Putin didn't know exactly how much the Chinese had at first, but he instinctively felt that something was wrong and said that he would not agree to this until he saw the specific number, and that Russia's property needs to be protected and its economy needs to be independent.

Sex also needs to be maintained.

The idea of ​​Qi Yiming and Liao Huairen is actually to control Russia economically. Politically, even if there is independence in the future, it will be more or less subordinate to the economy. Although the industries that Qi Yiming grabbed are not similar to hydropower, transportation, etc., which are very related to the national economy and people's livelihood.

, but it controls a considerable amount of manufacturing, industrial and mining industries, and then things like real estate. These things are either related to a strong country or are operating profit-making, which are much gentler than directly controlling Mingmen-type industries.

Liao Huairen finally issued a list to Putin. After reading it, veins began to appear on Putin's calm face. In fact, he didn't know many things at all, but he felt that he couldn't accept the part he knew. So

Putin suspended his first meeting with Liao Huairen.

Afterwards, the Strategic Bureau secretly ordered Nikolai to lobby Putin, and Qi Yiming also made some modifications to his own conditions. Finally, two days later, Liao Huairen came up with a new proposal: the shares of the above companies were transferred to Chinese ownership for 2 years.

During this period, taxes will be paid as usual, and the remaining 102 shares retained by China in the above-mentioned enterprise will be transferred to the Russian Federation free of charge after two years.

This is actually equivalent to the transfer of operating rights. Some resource enterprises and ports in many countries are accustomed to doing this, especially in relatively backward countries. They do not have technical capabilities and funds, but they hope to make money through this, so

Just look for companies from more mature developed countries to do it.

Putin also knows that this may be the last bottom line for the Chinese. They fought a war with more than one million people. If they don't get any benefits, they will definitely not be able to explain it. And if it is a time-limited transfer, in the end, these

Things will still belong to Russia, Putin comforted himself.

Large tracts of farm land are fine. After two years of farming, there will be no problem unless they are destructively planted. But if the Chinese are ruthless, those large-scale industrial and mines may be mined out in 20 years. Putin has added several binding clauses.

, resources must not be exploited in a predatory manner, and the resources must be supplied to Russian companies at the lowest price and given priority.

As for some factories and stores, Putin doesn't particularly care. He himself doesn't see the impact clearly, so he doesn't think much about it. He only thinks that if the Chinese can take over these enterprises that have been shut down for a long time or are not operating well, they can turn around their losses.

For the sake of profit, it also saves them considerable energy to do it.

In addition, many of these enterprises are no longer state-owned enterprises, but private ones. Putin just wants to take them back and go through some trouble. He even wants the Chinese to help him take back some private companies so that he can keep them for himself in the future.

.Putin actually has a very Soviet spirit. He fights against private oligarchs in another dimension. In the case of Yushchenko, he used disgraceful means to turn a private company into a state, which is evident.

This issue was eventually settled, and Putin raised the issue of diplomatic recognition of Siberia and the Far Eastern Republic. After all, he did not want to bear the crime of cutting off territory.

At this time, Liao Huairen smiled and came up with his own proposal: "We are going to form a temporary government and a temporary State Duma, and let these transitional government officials with only a few months of political life to support you. What do you think?

how?"

Putin understood that the independence of Siberia and the Far East was inevitable, so he could only sigh and said: "Okay, let's leave it like this."

"Now let's talk about the issue of aid," Putin said again.

"Well, in terms of economy, we will restore the normal operations and production of most Russian enterprises through direct investment and assisted guidance and management. This of course requires a coordinated economic recovery and development plan. After all, Russia now needs to re-establish a

own economic system. And most importantly, it needs to meet the daily living needs of the Russian people, so the economy may focus more on this part, and then enhance market vitality. It can also use high-quality foreign products to improve the lives of Russian people.

In fact, the path of privatization is not completely wrong in Russia's case. Proper regulation by the market will make the economy dynamic and flexible. Initially, we still encourage individual small-scale operations.

Private economists play a relatively large role in improving the economic environment.

Now Russia is also facing financial difficulties, so we will also provide approximately 2 billion U.S. dollars in interest-free long-term loans for the initial operation of the Russian government and the development of some plans. If necessary, our country will also

Consider adding an additional part. In addition, Mr. Putin can also consider ways to obtain funds from the World Bank or the International Monetary Fund. But I can assure you that their conditions will never be better than ours."

Liao Huairen came well prepared and brought with him some specific economic development plans, all formulated by the Strategic Security Bureau. They looked like flowers. Putin didn't know much about economics, but he still found it very meaningful and enlightened. In fact, there was something inside

There are some small backdoors buried in them, which either facilitate the penetration of China's economy or may have negative effects. Liao Huairen doesn't understand it, but Qi Yiming understands it very well.

Putin expressed satisfaction with this, and then added: "There are almost no Russian troops now. When the country is rebuilt, the army must also be rebuilt. What are your thoughts in this regard?"
