    In international relations, there are never eternal friends.  Just like China and the Soviet Union before, in the beginning, they were good enough to wear a pair of pants.  But then, the relationship between the two parties dropped to a freezing point in just one year, and there was no contact for twenty years.

    ?????????????????????? There was no time when the Soviet Union and Japan didn¡¯t have good relations.  During World War II, although the Japanese had a hostile relationship with the Soviets, the materials shipped back to the island by the Japanese from Southeast Asia did not fall into the hands of the Soviets.  Especially rubber, which was simply not available in the Soviet Union. Without the Japanese exchange, Soviet car wheels would have become a big problem.

    Therefore, Liu Dong is too lazy to pay attention to these ups and downs of international power relations.  God knows when the Soviet Union disintegrated, how much advantage did the Japanese gain from the Soviet Union?  Those experts in Soviet machinery also lived very happily in Japan.  Liu Dong could only ignore these messy relationships.  As for what Yeltsin said, the Soviet Union praised Liu Dong's actions, but Liu Dong didn't take it seriously.

    Rather than saying that the Soviet Union praised Liu Dong's actions, Liu Dong would rather think that the Soviet Union had taken advantage of not having signed the Plaza Accord, thereby envying Liu Dong's achievements.  The Soviets are also jealous of Japan's wealth!

    The meeting with Yeltsin, according to **Si's account, was: first we discussed the weather issue, then we discussed the international issue, then we discussed the issue of relatives, and then we discussed the issue of the aunt.  Anyway, after all is said and done, the issue that really wanted to be discussed was not discussed.

    Yeltsin, as a national leader, is obviously very familiar with such frivolous matters, but for someone like Liu Dong who has no intention of officialdom, it is a torment.  Even though Yeltsin was very good at grasping the rhythm of topics, such boring topics still made Liu Dong lose his energy.

    ??The friendship between China and the Soviet Union, which we have talked about for a long time, will last forever, and long live the friendship between the revolutionary classes.  Finally, when Liu Dong was about to become impatient, Yeltsin started to talk about the main topic.

    "This time your business inspection team came to our Soviet Union, what kind of cooperation do you want to seek? Especially you, Mr. Liu Dong, your experience is very extraordinary. I think you should have some very good ideas.  I wonder what I can do for you?" Yeltsin asked curiously.

    Although the KGB did not find out how much money Liu Dong currently has in his hands, the money Liu Dong made in Japan was definitely not small.  But now that the gluttonous feast is over, Liu Dong needs to find a suitable project for the money he earned.  Otherwise, putting money there would be an absolute waste of resources.

    Think about it again. Liu Dong has only been involved in a few industries since his rise to fame. Apart from the financial industry, Liu Dong's most important industry is industry. Although the industry accounts for only a small amount of Liu Dong's assets, seeing that Liu Dong has  After Liu Dong's actions in Japan, KGB intelligence analysts believed that Liu Dong had great interest in industry.

    ¡°Otherwise, Liu Dong would not have spent a lot of money to poach those technical talents in Japan.  Although Liu Dong has now established a research institute in the capital of China, those Japanese technicians also have a good place to go.  However, the research institute alone is definitely not enough.

    If Liu Dong didn¡¯t have industrial ambitions, he wouldn¡¯t have set up a research institute, and there would be no place for so many technical projects to be applied.  As for the Soviet Union, they did not find that Liu Dong shared these talents with Chinese officials, which meant that Liu Dong intended to start industrial projects on his own.

    In this case, Liu Dong will definitely open a factory.  When it comes to opening factories, the Soviet Union has something to do.

    Back then, the Soviet Union aided the construction of 156 major projects in China. Although it laid an extremely solid foundation for China's industry, the Chinese industry, which relied on the development and changes of Soviet technology, was more interested in Soviet machinery than machinery from other countries.  more familiar.

    Although the scientific researchers recruited by Liu Dong are all Japanese, if Liu Dong wants to build a factory, Soviet equipment is also a good choice.  Therefore, Yeltsin was very enthusiastic about Liu Dong. The root cause was that Liu Dong had money and a desire to do industry.  The Soviet Union is also very likely to get a share of Liu Dong's pie.

    ¡°And the intelligence shows that Liu Dong holds a large amount of foreign exchange in his hand, not RMB, but US dollars and Japanese yen.  Foreign exchange is not only needed by China.  The big brother, the Soviet Union, is also needed.

    The Soviet Union¡¯s hard currency in foreign exchange had two major supports, one was oil and the other was gold.  But just a few years ago, countries led by the United States were all buying gold and pushing the price of gold very high. This was originally a happy thing. After all, the price increase also had a negative impact on the Soviet Union¡¯s foreign exchange earnings.  Good news.

    It¡¯s a pity that Americans can¡¯t be so kind, watching the Soviet Union¡¯s wantonIn order to make money in international finance, it was necessary to trip up the Soviets.  The Americans used their own gold reserves, exchanged gold for funds, and competed with the Soviet Union for the market.  Therefore, at the highest price, the Soviets did not actually get much advantage.

    ??Then the Soviets also prepared a large amount of gold, and when they were preparing for a tough battle with the Americans, the Americans brought the market price down again.  Although the Soviets sold a large amount of gold, they did not make much money. Instead, they helped the Americans fill up the gold reserves they had used before, which can be said to have caused heavy losses.  At this time, the price of gold had already fallen. No matter how much gold the Soviets had, they could only fill the bottomless pit.

    Therefore, a few years ago, the Soviet Union was secretly bitten by the Americans in the international gold market.  The loss of gold was secondary. After all, the Soviet Union's heritage was still there, but the shortage of foreign exchange, especially the U.S. dollar, became a headache.

    Now, Liu Dong happens to have US dollars in foreign exchange in his hands. Although compared to the huge Soviet Union, this amount of funds is not enough at all, but it is better than nothing.  Therefore, if Liu Dong can be allowed to exchange the US dollars in his hand for Soviet machinery, it will definitely be a good deal, even if it is a loss, it is still a good deal.

    After all, the right to issue rubles lies with the Soviet Union, and the money spent on things made by the Soviet people themselves is also calculated in rubles.  This is just like China now, which would rather lose money than earn foreign exchange through exports. This is actually the same truth.

    Liu Dong was reluctant to answer Yeltsin's question.  It would be a lie to say that he did not covet Soviet machinery.  Although Soviet machinery is represented as stupid, big, black, and rough, when it comes to the quality of those machinery, it is still much better than what China makes itself.

    Liu Dong¡¯s background is in the Machinery Engineering Department, so he certainly knows what kind of machinery is being manufactured in China.  Although China has built a lot of machinery based on the machinery aided by the Soviet Union, fundamentally, these machinery manufactured by China are just imitations of Soviet machinery.

    Due to inadequate technology and defects in material science, these new machines made by China always have defects of one kind or another.  It would indeed be a wonderful thing to have access to original imported machinery.

    However, Liu Dong felt that it would be too much of a loss to order these machines now.  You know, the Soviet Union will disintegrate in a few years. If you buy these machines by then, you can get them for whatever price you pay.

    Now we need to buy some machinery back. Although there will definitely be a certain discount due to the relationship, it is not as refreshing as buying it at cabbage price.  Liu Dong, who is accustomed to bargain hunting, would still find it quite uneconomical if he were asked to buy machinery at normal prices.  Even if the Soviet Union gave him a 50% discount, it would still be the same.

    But now, since Yeltsin asked, of course it was impossible for him to express his innermost thoughts.  But if he was not interested in anything, wouldn't his visit to the Soviet Union become pure sightseeing?  I believe that at that time, both the Soviet Union and China would express dissatisfaction with Liu Dong's sightseeing behavior.

    But Liu Dong also had to think carefully about what kind of machinery he wanted to buy.  The Soviet Union had a developed military industry, so buying arms would be a good choice.  But even if the Soviet Union would sell arms to Liu Dong, Liu Dong wouldn't dare to ask for them.  It would be a very taboo thing for him to buy arms without domestic approval. Not to mention that he would not have any merit, he might also be held responsible.

    Arms are not a good thing, but Liu Dong has no idea what to buy for other things.  The company he opened in the capital was engaged in precision machining. If you needed to buy equipment, it was best to buy CNC machine tools.  It's a pity that the Soviet Union is not good at this stuff. Even if Liu Dong wanted to buy it, he couldn't buy anything good.

    The five-axis machine is still at the advanced level in the world, and the Soviet Union is just as difficult as China in this regard.  Their machine tools still need to be obtained through underground means, so how can they sell them to Liu Dong?  Therefore, the Soviet Union cannot provide Liu Dong with what he needs most now.

    Although Liu Dong has a little money now, it is impossible to establish a new project without purpose.  In the industrial area, the projects are really too extensive.  It is basically impossible to cover all projects.

    Even the United States, the Soviet Union, and China claim to have the most comprehensive industrial base.  However, some things still need to be imported.  Just like the United States, they divide the industry into various modules, and then have multiple countries undertake the corresponding parts.

    Japan¡¯s electronic precision industry is considered the world¡¯s top, and the United States purchases the electronic precision industrial components it needs from Japan.  Germany has the best materials science, and the United States imports material components from Germany.  This distribution creates the appearance that American industry is extremely powerful.  In fact, if the United States cannot import things made in other countries, the quality of its industrial finished products will also drop a lot.?Grade.

    Therefore, if Liu Dong wants to develop in industry, he must clarify which industrial projects he will develop in industry instead of making random purchases.  If the limited funds are spread evenly on all industrial projects like pepper noodles, then Liu Dong will not be able to achieve any results no matter how much money he has.  Because no matter how great his strength is, he cannot be greater than the power of the country.
