Chapter 358

After dealing with the affairs of Monsanto, Donia, EVA and Karim come to Switzerland together, intending to settle here for a long time. Dongnia was seconded to the office of the Mediterranean trading company as director by seryosa. However, this is only a temporary arrangement, because Xie liaosha has put the preparatory work of the air cargo company on the agenda.

The existing five tu-144d aircraft are all in the hands of the Soviet civil aviation, but because this type of aircraft has strict requirements for pilots, and the cost is too high, the Soviet civil aviation has always wanted to get rid of them. Now Xie liaosha came to the door on his own initiative and hit them right. Seryosa soon reached an agreement with Soviet air. Seryosa's air cargo company would lease the aircraft for five years. After five years, the aircraft would automatically be owned by seryosa's air cargo company. In addition, Xie liaosha also contacted Tu-144 production line in Voronezh. Although Tu-144 has been shut down, Tupolev design bureau is obviously not willing to let tu-144d die in this way. They have never stopped the work related to t-144. Xie liaosha and they have reached an agreement on the maintenance and use of the aircraft, and they will provide all-weather repair and maintenance services, And the training of pilots.

In this way, Xie liaosha has actually saved most of the maintenance cost of tu-144d. According to the current situation of Tu-144, the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of aircraft are obvious. Of course, the advantages are fast speed, long range and fuel saving. The disadvantages mainly focus on the high maintenance cost and the difficulty of pilot training. But now the Tupolev design bureau is begging for others to use it, in order to make this kind of aircraft survive. In fact, the cost of sheriesha is not big.

Mikhail, on behalf of the Mediterranean trading company, took over all assets related to tu-144d from the Soviet civil aviation, including pilots, ground crew and other technical personnel. Dounia was responsible for the application of routes and the admission to the airport. She would poach some competent talents from the Soviet civil aviation to deal with this matter, It is expected that the follow-up problems will not be solved until January next year at the earliest.

Over the past year, she has been living in fear almost all day. Only after the incident of flight 007 in the Republic of Korea, can she have the energy to really do what she wants to do. So in the last few months of the year, he was very busy, mainly because Secretary GE's urging was a little too tight, and Xie liaosha could only keep urging Mikhail to speed up his pace. In order to give Secretary Ge an explanation, Mikhail first prepared the Italian branch of Mediterranean trading company, and then the Romanov merchant's cargo ship carrying commodity grain set sail from Canada and drifted on the sea.

He planned to make these grains processed in Italy and transformed into wheat produced in Hungary. Then he sailed from Italy, crossed the Turkish Strait, landed from Rostov, and transported them to Volga and Gorky respectively through the Don River and Volga River, and then transferred them to the domestic market. Along the way, Yakov has already done a good job. Neither the Italians nor the Turks will have any problems.

However, the expansion of grain trade means that Romanov will receive more cotton, electrolytic aluminum, oil and other resource products. Romanov must recruit more traders.

Romanov's traders now mainly face the resource markets in Europe and North America, but over the years, the market growth rate in Europe and North America has begun to decline. As a market intruder, Romanov has a cost advantage, but it is facing the run of old trading companies. Romanov is not the rival of these old firms, so we must find the virgin market as a new business breakthrough. Therefore, after careful research, Romanov will focus on opening up the Asian market, especially the Japanese market. Therefore, Romanov urgently needs a large number of traders who are familiar with the Asian market.

However, Romanov's recruitment plan has aroused the interest of an American who has just arrived here. Mark Ritchie, who used to work for Philip brothers, the world's largest oil trader, left the company to start his own business. Mark Ritchie was born with a passion for adventure. He made huge profits from the trade rights of countries in turbulent situations by all means for the sake of interests. He traded with Iran during the Iranian hostage crisis and with Cuba and Libya during the U.S. trade embargo. Just over a month ago, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a number of charges against mark Ritchie, including fraud, trading with the enemy, tax evasion and so on. Mark Ritchie fled to Switzerland with his partner, green.

As a veteran trader with many years of experience, mark Ritchie soon noticed Romanov's distinctive trading model. There are only wheat, cotton, oil and electrolytic aluminum involved in the spot trading of Romanov. However, these commodities span agriculture, non-ferrous metals and oil, and the general trading companies will only focus on one or two of them, which makes mark rich have a strong curiosity about Romanov.

Romanov's recruitment has just begun, mark Ritchie through some of his own contacts to find Kalim, and Kalim made a request to meet. Karim didn't take it seriously until his men reminded him that Karim noticed mark Ritchie's tough resume, so he agreed to mark Ritchie's request. The meeting was held at Romanov's headquarters.

Mark Ritchie came to Romanov half an hour in advance, and Karim, who got the news, went to receive him immediately. Mark Ritchie was surprised at first when he saw Karim. But he didn't show it. Instead, he said with a smile: "it's hard to imagine that the leader of Romanov is still a beautiful girl. Although I heard about you before I came here, I was surprised to see you!"

"Mr. mark Ritchie, you are the legend of our industry. It's my honor to meet you!" Karim flattered.

"But now I'm just an unemployed wanted criminal. I wonder if you'd like me to get a job in your company?" Mark Ritchie said straightforwardly.
