The few months after the Spring Festival were very monotonous for Li Guangyu. He basically went from home to the company and back again. During this time, he did not fly to other places. Even in June, Echeng Port and Echeng Chemical Base were officially put into use.
Guangyu did not attend.
Du Yuemei, Xie Tao and Zhou Zhigang were present there. Li Guangyu himself attended the graduation ceremony of Hong Kong Chung Hwa University. This was the first undergraduate graduation ceremony of Hong Kong Chung Hwa University. The school attaches great importance to this, and all the directors of the school attended.
for this ceremony.
Also since this time, the number of fresh graduates from Hong Kong universities has more than doubled. In the past, there were only Hong Kong University and Hong Kong Chinese University. The graduates from the Hong Kong Flight Attendant College, which started last year, basically went to work in airlines due to their professionalism.
This year is different. Not only the Chinese University of Hong Kong ushered in its first undergraduate graduates, but also the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and Hong Kong City University also welcomed their first undergraduate graduates.
The more than 10,000 graduates graduating this year will bring new vitality to the economic development of Hong Kong and alleviate the shortage of talents in many industries in Hong Kong.
The world situation has also undergone major changes. The Soviet Union withdrew its troops from Afghanistan in June, marking the overlord's beginning to shrink its military strength around the world.
Moreover, under the auspices of the Soviet leaders, vigorous political reforms were launched in June. Economic reforms are still being promoted, and corporate autonomy within the Soviet Union is also increasing.
At the same time, the control over the members of the Warsaw Pact has also been significantly weakened, which has caused undercurrents to surge within many Eastern European countries.
The trade volume between Donghua Trading Company and Eastern European countries is also increasing. Even excluding the equipment worth 500 million US dollars in Xiangjiang and Echeng Chemical Industry and other transactions, the bilateral trade volume has exceeded 6 billion US dollars in this half year.
, there is no trade deficit in the end, it is a barter transaction, that is, each side is 3 billion US dollars.
However, Donghua Trading Company has made a lot of money here. The products traded to Eastern Europe are worth only 2 billion US dollars after all costs. And because the unit price of the products exchanged in Eastern Europe is far lower than the market price, they
The $3 billion worth of goods exchanged for Eastern Europe were sold for about $4 billion.
In other words, in the past six months, through reselling on this scale, Donghua Trading Company made a huge profit of two billion U.S. dollars. This second-hand reselling dealer really has a future.
It's a pity that this kind of business can't last long, otherwise Donghua Trading Company would really be able to suppress several major retail groups.
As the reform of the Soviet Union intensifies, the Group of Seven has been communicating and negotiating with the Soviet Union. These guys are ready to get involved, especially the American consortium. They have long been eyeing the Soviet Union. What Li Guangyu is doing now has a serious impact on their plans.
.
Originally, they wanted to use their economy to drag across the Soviet Union. As a result, Li Guangyu greatly eased the economic situation of the Soviet Union and even the Warsaw Pact member states through this form of trade.
Although Li Guangyu is also squeezed in terms of price, at least the products of these countries can be sold. Moreover, Li Guangyu focuses on purchasing resource-based products such as oil, natural gas, and coal mines. These products are relatively low-priced for the Soviet Union.
It doesn't matter, the main thing now is that it can be sold. Anyway, if you don't mine it and put it there, you won't be able to exchange it for living materials and food.
Using these resources in exchange for urgently needed food and light industrial products can improve people's lives and reduce some social conflicts. Warsaw Pact member states are very willing to do this.
They also want to trade with Western countries, but these countries want to drag down their economies, so they can only find another way. The Li Group is an important cooperation channel for them.
It's not that they don't understand that Li Guangyu and their transactions are squeezed, it's just that this is the way of business, and they have to bow their heads now when facing such a situation. In such a period, there can be a powerful force that does not need their foreign exchange and is willing to
It is already very rare to adopt the barter trading model.
After all, the Li Group has to take great risks and earn high profits. If they still have objections to this, I am afraid that no company or force will be willing to conduct such a transaction with them.
Now Gan Qinglin can be said to be a man of the hour in Central and Eastern Europe. In order to ensure his safety, Li Guangyu specially mobilized the 13th, 14th, and 15th action groups to go over and replace the previous groups.
72 people guarded Gan Qinglin’s safety.
After all, Gan Qinglin is now a member of the Li Consortium contacting various forces in Eastern Europe. They have suffered dissatisfaction and resentment from many people for doing this. Who knows if someone will suddenly take action against Gan Qinglin.
And because the trade volume there is increasing, Li Guangyu also specially investigated Liu Haohua, the executive deputy director of the Ministry of Examination, Huang Chenguang, the executive deputy general manager of the accounting firm, Qiu Liuqiang, the first deputy director of the confidentiality office, Liu Wenbin, deputy director of the legal department, and Hengyu Supermarket
Fang Ruoqiang, executive vice president of the group, went to Vienna to assist Gan Qinglin in charge of Eastern European affairs.
Li Guangyu has arranged an action team for each of these personnel to be responsible for their safety. After all, it is not a peaceful place there.
The curtain is about to open in Eastern Europe, and Li Guangyu is also waiting for the time to come. It will also be one of the important markets for the Li Group in the future.
Some actions of Donghua Trading Company have obviously affected the plans of the Group of Seven led by the United States. At the G7 summit to be held in Japan this year, countries will discuss issues related to the members of the Warsaw Pact, one of which is related to
of Donghua Trading Company.
Li Guangyu still doesn't know that the difficulties facing him are approaching. When the time comes, he will have to give in despite the joint pressure from the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Japan, Italy and Canada, no matter how capable he is.
The members of the Warsaw Pact are currently the main enemies of the Group of Seven, which are also seven countries with very strong global economies. They are also communicating with the Soviet Union and even providing loans to the Soviet Union to support the Soviet Union's drastic reforms.
But it is true that they support Soviet reforms. What they want to see more is political reform, and economic reform is also acceptable, but they absolutely do not want to see reforms develop in the Soviet Union's favor.
The threat from the Soviet Union to them is too great. The more serious the Soviet Union's internal economic problems are, the better, so that they don't have to worry about it.
And they are not just making moves in the Soviet Union. They are also making a series of moves in the Warsaw Pact member states in Eastern Europe. The most important factor here is that the local economy is getting worse and worse, and people's lives are getting more and more difficult. In this way
Only then do they have a chance.
The results are good now. Li Guangyu used this trick to enable the products of these countries to be purchased and the necessary supplies to be purchased. As a result, the economies of these countries have improved a lot, and daily necessities are not too scarce.
After all this peace, they are still fooling around. Even if they want to provoke internal conflicts in these areas, not many people will support them.
In order for the plans they have laid out for many years to be implemented smoothly, the Group of Seven will never allow any power to destroy their plans. If anyone jumps out and affects their plans, they will suppress them.
In the past, Donghua Trading Company's transaction volume was relatively small, so they didn't pay much attention to it. However, in the past few months this year, the transaction volume has increased significantly, and they had to take a crack at the Li Group.
