Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Before six o'clock in the evening, Yang Dongxu arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel in Shanghai. With the development of the domestic economy, increasingly crowded international hotel chains have begun to settle in the country.

For example, five-star hotel giants such as Shangri-La Ala, GreenTree Inn, Hilton, etc. are paying more and more attention to the Asian market, especially the Chinese market in the Asian market.

The speed at which these hotels have settled in the mainland is much faster than that of Li Fuzhen, a Samsung princess who created her own hotel brand. Basically, after deciding to invest, they started to launch hotel projects in first-tier domestic cities at the same time.

You can basically see these big hotels in big cities.

"Haha, good evening, Mr. Yang." As soon as he walked into the lobby on the first floor of Shangri-La Hotel, Zheng Tianhe greeted him with a smile.

Yang Dongxu quickly walked a few steps and shook hands with the other person with a smile: "Boss Zheng, there is no need to be so polite. You can call me Dongxu or Xuzi."

"Then I'll ask you to call me Xuzi. Don't be so polite. Just call me Lao Zheng." Zheng Tianhe said with a smile.

As he spoke, he led Yang Dongxu forward, as if he was specially greeted in the lobby. Instead of going upstairs, he went directly to the hotel restaurant.

For international hotel chain giants like this, in addition to their signature hotel management and services, catering is actually one of the important components of these hotels. For example, the Shangri-La hotel's catering service is a three-star restaurant rated by Michelin.

However, Michelin only evaluates Western food, and they are actually outsiders when it comes to Chinese food. If you want to do good business in China, you must make some localized changes, so Shangri-La has high-end Western food and the Chinese food is also good.

Many of the bosses at this trade conference organized by the five countries are from outside the country, so since he organized the bureau himself, Zheng Tianhe was very considerate. He directly booked a room at Shangri-La and let the outside bosses live in directly. He asked for it again at the hotel restaurant today.

It’s a large private room. It can be said that the host has considered everything that I could have considered during this dinner party.

After entering the box, he saw that many people were seated. Yang Dongxu really suspected that he was the last one to arrive.

There were more than a dozen people in the private room, people from all walks of life. There were men and women, but they were basically bosses of various companies. There were no assistants or secretaries coming in to fill in the numbers.

It would be better not to have an assistant or secretary come to such an occasion because it would easily offend people.

"This is Zhongshan, who can definitely be ranked among the top three in our domestic furniture factory. If you want any furniture or play with wood, you can go to him." Zheng Tianhe introduced each other to the people in the room.

The main purpose of this gathering is to invite people who are investing in Russia to get together and get acquainted with each other, and to help each other if we encounter anything or have any difficulties in the future.

The people invited were not Zheng Tianhe's strength, but were carefully selected. They were basically representatives of various industries involved in this investment.

For example, Zhong Shan not only makes good furniture, but is also a big player in the domestic timber market. Not only is Lao Maozi engaged in timber business with Japan, but now the timber business has begun to expand to Southeast Asia, Brazil and Africa.

While introducing each other, they shook hands and said hello. When they introduced a slightly bald, tall man, the other person quickly stretched out his hand without waiting for Zheng Tianhe to introduce him: "Hello, Boss Yang, I am Gao Wanlou.

, Gaowanlou of Tiansheng Pharmaceutical.”

"Hello, Boss Gao, I didn't expect to meet you here. Your business is getting bigger and bigger, and you have even opened up the Russian medicinal materials market." Yang Dongxu smiled and shook hands with the other party.

This is an acquaintance, because Tiansheng Pharmaceutical is a well-known medicinal company in China. However, they do not produce medicines, they only sell some precious traditional Chinese medicines such as deer antler, ginseng, and spiritual plants.

In addition to producing some common cold, skin disease and other popular medicines, the pharmaceutical factories of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Alliance also produce some prescription medicines. Such medicines often require some precious medicinal materials, so the two parties have a lot of business dealings.

"It would be great if we could get through it. The people on Lao Maozi's side are too lazy. The land is so fertile but they don't cultivate it. There are so many precious medicinal materials in the forests and mountains, but they are too lazy to pick them one by one, and they don't let outsiders touch them. They get stuck at every turn.

In addition to looking for benefits from foreign investors, you don't do anything and don't work hard. It's a waste of money." Gao Wanlou laughed and scolded.

In fact, there are many people who view Russia from the same perspective as Gao Wanlou. You said that you need resources and resources, technology and technology, and even the technical reserves can still compete with the Americans.

Not to mention natural resources, oil and natural gas are the main suppliers to the European market. Not only is there a lot of arable land, but it also attracts the attention of Chinese people who like to farm.

But Russia just can't develop. Although there are certain reasons for the U.S. economic blockade that caused this situation, it is not the absolute reason.

After all, China's situation is much more difficult than that of Russia. How can it develop even if it wants nothing? So at first glance, many people feel that the Russians are too lazy and cannot develop despite such good innate conditions.

In fact, the real cause of Russia's current economic depression is themselves. For example, too many oligarchs are a cancer that seriously affects the country's economic development.

Some Russian citizens are lazy, but some are actually very hard-working. For example, Russia has always been a major international grain exporter. Every year, China cannot help but import large quantities of grain from Europe and the United States. Russia is also one of China's grain import partners.

It's just because Russia is vast and sparsely populated, and a lot of the land is not mined or cultivated. It is in sharp contrast to domestic fields where people are just scratching and scratching to grow vegetables. That's why domestic people feel that they are too lazy.

This is actually a cognitive misunderstanding. As for what Gao Wanlou said about the medicinal materials in the forest that are too lazy to be picked, and foreigners are not allowed to do so.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In fact, this is because there were formal channels for trading precious medicinal materials between the two countries, and it is illegal to collect them privately. It is not just businessmen who are pursuing profits, but everyone is also pursuing profits at their core.

For example, a branch of Russian wild ginseng is also very valuable. If a resident digs one out of the mountains, it is worth more than a year's income from hard work in farming.

If the Russian government dares to let this go, Russian residents will go crazy. Anyone caught stealing valuable medicinal materials in the country will be sentenced to prison.

In Russia, regardless of whether you are a native or a foreigner, you will basically be beaten up if you encounter someone, and the mortality rate is extremely high.

Although most citizens in Russia live in poverty, they are not so poor that they cannot survive. Therefore, most of them are naturally unwilling to use their lives as a bargaining chip to take risks to gain wealth.

And if they can't sell it, dig it out and eat it themselves. Except for the matsutake mushrooms whose prices are so high in French restaurants, they can dig it up and eat it themselves. The use of other wild plants in the world can be compared with China.

After all, in China, the delicious food is all the food, the bad food is the medicinal materials, and the inedible ones are the building materials. From the perspective of the Chinese people, all animals and plants in the wild can be eaten, but the Russians cannot cook.

On the one hand, on the other hand, there are too many and people don’t care at all.

For example, Chinese people often think that the proliferation of rabbits in Australia is because Australians cannot cook rabbits, and that the proliferation of carp in the United States is because Americans cannot cook carp.

But this is not the main reason. The main reason is that people in Australia have a vast land and sparsely populated areas, so there is no shortage of food. For example, Australians have better and safer beef and mutton that they can eat freely.

Americans are accustomed to eating fish with less bones. You can eat a large mouthful of fish without worrying about the bones, and it is not expensive to eat as much as you want. If it were you, would you eat the troublesome carp?

Braised or fried in sauce, other less-spiny fish still taste good, so why do I have to eat spiny braised carp?

In the same way, the cooking techniques are rough and the delicious beef and mutton have not yet come out, so why should I eat rabbit?

So when Chinese people see the proliferation of this and that in foreign countries, they always feel that the IQ of foreigners is worrying, but the actual situation is that they have too many good things and there are few people. What you think is good is not what they think is normal for them.

Inside the recipe.

After the introduction, everyone sat down and the waiter began to serve the food. After a few glasses of wine, we started chatting with each other. The general content of the conversation was actually the investment environment in Russia.

There is another important factor in the failure of Russia's economic development, and that is the poor investment environment. Not to mention that foreign investors are being deceived, stuck, and taken advantage of in Russia.

The investment environment in Russia alone makes many foreign investors have no confidence. They are afraid that after they make some achievements, they will be confiscated and kicked away. If they dare to resist even a little bit, they will either go to jail or be kicked out.

Of course, although the two possibilities below are a bit exaggerated, it can be seen that the Russian investment environment cannot create a safe atmosphere for investors.

Although businessmen pursue profits, the profits you make may eventually be packed up and taken away by you. Of course, no one is stupid enough to come to your door to help you work.

The trade fair was successful this time, and private capital was also very active. Most of the reason was because the state endorsed it, which gave many investors peace of mind, so they were willing to spend money to invest.

But this kind of endorsement obviously does not come often. Real investment means that the investment atmosphere is good and a lot of capital actively invests. Therefore, although this investment can alleviate a little pressure on the Russian investment market, if you want to completely develop your own economy, it is

It is still a long-term and arduous issue for the Russian government.

"Brother Yang, I heard that you have invested a lot in the north this time. Although our industries are different, some things are interoperable. Please take care of me when the time comes." Gao Wanlou looked like a very good drinker when he was drinking.

He is a big man from Northeast China, but his face is obviously a little troubled by drinking. After only a few glasses of wine, his cheeks have turned red.

"Yes, yes, if anything happens in the future, please take care of me, Brother Yang." Others echoed beside him.

This time everyone arrived early for the party, and Zheng Tianhe greeted Yang Dongxu in the lobby, treating Yang Dongxu as a guest. No one present was unconvinced and wanted to have some relationship with him.

Many years ago when the Soviet Union collapsed, Yang Dongxu and Su Ri'an stirred up trouble. At that time, he was still relatively low-key, and perhaps not many people present knew the inside story.

But this time in the trade negotiations, Yang Dongxu was confronting the Russian negotiating team, and the other party seemed to be a little afraid of him. Everyone here could see it. Just because Yang Dongxu was sitting in the main seat today, they

Take it heartily.
