Chapter 1453

The flight of the Chinese delegation led by Vladimir korkoshko arrived at Livni West Airport at more than 10 a.m. on Monday, December 21.

After returning to his home in the south of the city for a simple rest, korkoshko hurried to the Rovno National University in the city.

A graduation ceremony has just been held here this morning.

The school of Business Administration of Rovno National University, which is mainly funded by Westeros system, held a one-year on-the-job training course last year, which mainly provides enterprise management training for middle and senior managers of Rovno group's enterprises, adopts the advanced case teaching mode of Harvard University, and adapts measures to local conditions, in line with the industrial layout of Rovno group and the economic status of Eastern Europe, A batch of specially customized cases.

Because Simon has personally paid attention to this refresher class, and there is a real shortage of business administration talents here, the top and bottom of the Rovno Gang attach great importance to it.

After missing the graduation ceremony, korkoshko could only attend the noon reception.

Arriving at the school auditorium of the National University as the banquet hall, in addition to nearly 60 students who graduated today, governor Andrei Smirnov, founder of oldek company Sergei komorov, current mayor of rivni Vasily nazorov, general referee of rivni Development Bank boguslav Edelman, President of ufms Kerim jeleviyanko Yuri dovlinko, President of rmsr, and other core members of the Rovno Gang all appeared here.

Obviously, we all know that to cultivate special enterprise management talents and improve the operation level of the subordinate enterprises of the Rovno Gang is to improve the strength of the whole Rovno gang in the final analysis.

Because this is an era when economy is king.

However, in addition to the core members of the Rovno Gang, there are not many people in Ukraine who can firmly believe and adhere to this truth. For example, the group in Kiev still continues the rough model of seizing power and interests in the era of the former Soviet Union.

Different patterns are doomed to a different future.

Earlier, the result of the internal struggle between Kuchma and Lazarenko has proved that the model of seizing interests by relying on power cannot last long. Instead, it is Rovno who helps us concentrate on economic development.

Of course, the Rovno gang will not be naive enough to think that they can work hard and live up to their obligations.

There's still a backstage.

Fortunately, their backstage is large enough to easily crush the whole country, so they can put aside their worries and concentrate on their work.

From 1994 to now, just a few years later, through economic expansion and this year's Ukrainian State Duma election, we have obtained enough political capital. At present, even if the Rovno Gang is not deep-rooted, it is definitely not easy for anyone to shake it.

The next step is to continue deep ploughing.

The group of students who graduated today are the backbone of enterprises at all levels of the Rovno gang. They are the main force for the next expansion of the Rovno gang. Therefore, the core of the Rovno Gang is basically complete.

He patiently greeted many students who were familiar with him one by one. After a round, korkoshko, who had drunk a lot of wine, was already red.

He went to the bathroom and washed his face with cold water to wake up. Korkoshko returned to the hall and saw the governor waldmirka waving to him, so he walked over.

After a few more greetings, the topic naturally turned to korkoshko's trip to China.

In the past two weeks, korkoshko led the team to spend most of their time in Hong Kong. Others went to several cities such as Beijing, Suzhou and Shenzhen. The specific schedule is very boring to outsiders, basically three kinds: government exchanges, enterprise visits and business seminars.

If it is other government teams, it is easy to turn such visits into public travel. Of course, kolkoshko and his party did not do so, but really went to learn from the Scriptures.

In other cases, such visits and exchanges often have the nature of attracting investment or negotiating cooperation.

In the past few years, with the help of Westeros system, the Rovno gang has indeed reached a lot of cooperation with China, such as the Chinese chain restaurants launched from Livni and spread to many major cities in Ukraine, such as the VCD and DVD factory built in Livni by a Chinese brand called bubugo, such as the large export of amber produced by Rovno to China, For example, the garment factory in Livni has reached fabric import cooperation with some Chinese enterprises, etc.

Even some factories here have specially hired many senior managers from China, involving production and marketing. There's no way. Eastern Europe with a strong smell of the Soviet Union really lacks relevant talents, and China's reform and opening up has been 20 years, which has accumulated a lot.

This is actually the reason why the core of the Rovno Gang attaches so much importance to this executive training class.

In any case, after all, it is easier for our own people to use it.

Besides, korkoshko's just concluded trip to China is different this time. There are no arrangements for investment promotion and cooperation.

Because Livni has not enough resources for foreign enterprises for the time being.

There is no shortage of people.

However, infrastructure resources such as electricity, transportation and water conservancy can only barely support the development of the existing pattern in Rovno region.

Of course, priority is given to supply itself.

For this reason, the Rovno Gang also took the initiative to push off many projects that seem very high-quality to outsiders.

Just in October, Volkswagen of Germany sent a delegation to Livni, hoping to build an automobile factory here. Therefore, the Kiev authorities paid close attention to it personally.

Finally, we can only decline.

First, the heavy industry of automobile is inconsistent with the development idea of Livni light industry.

Secondly, and most importantly, it consumes too much resources.

If an automobile factory is built in Livni, not to mention the large consumption of infrastructure resources, even the human resources here will be pinched by Volkswagen's automobile factory.

This is not what the Rovno gang would like to see.

It's not over yet.

After Livni declined, the Kiev authorities were very eager to offer retention conditions. Whether it is Kiev, the important industrial town of Donetsk in the East, or Odessa in the South with convenient sea transportation, the public can choose. Obviously, the Kiev authorities also understand the huge economic benefits that can be formed after an automobile factory drives the surrounding industrial chain.

As a result, the public didn't like it.

In fact, Southeast Ukraine still has a certain automobile industry foundation. On the contrary, Rovno state is almost poor. Under normal circumstances, it is against common sense for the public to choose to build an automobile factory in Livni rather than other prosperous industrial areas.

Of course the public is not stupid.

In Eastern Europe, everything is cheap now. According to the principle of natural capital seeking low cost, it should have developed rapidly with a large amount of capital inflow in recent years.

Why not?

The key is the business environment.

Political turmoil, public security collapse, infrastructure collapse and so on, all of which will inhibit the inflow of capital, which basically accounts for the whole of Eastern Europe.

And play with wool.

Even with the direct support of the national authorities, it is the same all over the world that kids are difficult to deal with.

Therefore, Volkswagen hopes to build a factory in Livni. The only thing it is optimistic about is the excellent business environment of Livni under the control of Westeros system.

With a good external environment, even if the region has no foundation in the automobile industry and has a stable base, it can build the required talent and parts system from other regions of Ukraine where the industrial foundation is not weak.

The key is to do business well.

Unfortunately, Livni doesn't have so many resources for the public. In other regions, with a $1 billion project investment and the prospect can't be guaranteed, the public really dare not go. For a large Volkswagen Group, the loss of US $1 billion is still second, and it will not hurt the muscles and bones. The key is that if the production plan is disrupted, the loss can not be calculated by US $1 billion.

The reception lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon.

Because of the work arrangement, the core members of the Rovno gang who took the time to join in basically left in advance, such as Sergei komorov, who controls the core of the Rovno Gang, aldek company.

Just after one o'clock in the afternoon, komorov left the reception and rushed to Livni railway station in the city center.

For Livni's railway system, the most dissatisfied point of the Rovno Gang is that the railway trunk line just passes through the city center.

The railway station is also built in the city center.

With the rapid development of the whole city, the railway station originally built for a small town with a population of 200000 is obviously not enough, but it is very troublesome to expand because it is located in the crowded city center, and the transportation of surrounding goods to the station is also very inconvenient.

This is a legacy of history.

Fortunately, the new railway station in the north of the city has been planned and will be officially started after the thaw next year.

I can only make a living now.

Sergei komorov personally came to rivney railway station this afternoon to see the smooth completion of the latest batch of business of aldek company.

Arriving at the railway station, just after meeting with the person in charge who was busy directing the loading of workers here, komorov saw a beautiful woman in a pink windbreaker and a bun coming, but it was Yulia Tymoshenko.

Taking another look at the brand-new freight car on the railway rail, komorov suddenly understood why this woman appeared.

Seeing the other party approaching, komorov showed a smiling face and took the initiative to meet him, which inevitably filled his heart with emotion.

After Lazarenko was taken by Kuchma, many people thought that the former natural gas princess would be silent quickly. After all, without the natural gas distribution right in Ukraine, Tymoshenko's so-called business empire also lost part of the main source of income. As for other businesses, it has not been on track at all.

Unexpectedly, the woman soon made a comeback.

It is rumored that Tymoshenko formed an alliance with Victor Yushchenko, another central bank governor who holds the Ukrainian money bag, and reached a settlement with Kuchma, so he was able to recover. In fact, as one of the core members of the Rovno Gang, komorov knew that the woman was actually able to gain a foothold again by catching up with her big boss.

Simon hoped to cultivate Tymoshenko into his own dark son, but it was not a dead chess, so he informed several cores of the Rovno gang.

Of course, at the public level, even if some other intuitive people roughly guess, they will not be confirmed by Simon.

As for Tymoshenko's closer and closer relationship with the Rovno Gang, Ukraine is now very close to the Rovno Gang, both in Kiev and the Donetsk gang in eastern Ukraine. On the one hand, the giant westero system behind the Rovno Gang, on the other hand, the Rovno gang does not compete with everyone for the assets left over by the former Soviet Union, Who is not willing to make friends with such forces?

Tymoshenko is not conspicuous.

After the two sides approached and shook hands warmly, komorov looked at the new car on the track and said with a smile, "Yulia, you really helped us a lot."

With the rapid development of Livni, the limitation of transportation capacity has also become a short board restricting urban development.

The railway system that has not been updated since the disintegration of the Soviet Union is fairly good. In the past two years, what bothers Livni most is the serious shortage of train cars as the main freight force. Whether it is importing raw materials or exporting products, it requires a large number of cars, so that there will be disputes within the Rovno gang in order to compete for cars.

Obviously, seeing this business opportunity, Tymoshenko bought a locomotive factory in Odessa this year, specializing in the production of train cars. At present, Tymoshenko can stably supply 50 brand-new carriages for Livni every week, which is exactly equivalent to the number of a freight train.

Of course, this business is not just Tymoshenko.

Even Victor pinchuk, the president's son-in-law, has stepped in, but pinchuk mainly produces equipment such as train wheels and tracks, followed by carriages. For the planned new railway station in the north of Livni, the equipment supply was won by pingchuk.

Therefore, komorov said Tymoshenko was a great help, of course, just a compliment.

After all, it's always right to praise the woman who is a big boss and is so capable.

Yulia Tymoshenko didn't get complacent. Just as politely, she looked at the workers busy loading and asked, "I heard you have opened up a new business this time?"

Komorov did not hide, nodded: "Yes, the cooperation with German parity Supermarket Chain Aldi has actually started since last year. Initially, it only supplied simple flour, granulated sugar and edible oil. This time, four new categories were added, candy, coffee, sausage and vodka. Oh, they are all our own brands. The water test sales are good, and some marketing has been carried out. This is the first large-scale distribution."

Ordinary people may not feel anything when they hear these. They are all daily, but Tymoshenko is envious.

As the "bread basket" of the former Soviet Union, Ukraine once supplied 20% of the flour, 40% of edible oil and up to 80% of granulated sugar of the whole Soviet Union. With the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Ukraine's agricultural production once collapsed. In fact, it has only recovered to about half of all aspects of production before the disintegration in recent years.

But it is still enough to earn foreign exchange through export on the basis of self use.

In addition to Rovno, Tymoshenko generally knows that before, it was only basic flour, granulated sugar and edible oil. Livni's average daily output is the volume of one train, about 40 to 60 wagons. The output of three basic foods reached millions of tons in the past year, and the annual income is expected to exceed 600 million US dollars.

Even if the profit margins of the three basic foods are very low, and the average net interest rate is only about 5%, it is expected to bring a net income of US $30 million to Rovno gang.

30 million dollars, for the little man standing behind all this, may not be much, but in Ukraine, it is a business that makes many people jealous.

Now, obviously further.

The profit margin of deeply processed products such as candy, sausage and vodka is more than 5%.

Besides coffee, Ukraine does not produce coffee beans. Tymoshenko knows that these are imported from Africa and exported to Western Europe after processing in rivni. Unlike local flour and other products, the profit will also be very high.

Seeing the big from the small, this further undoubtedly means that the strength of the Rovno Gang is increasing rapidly.
