Should one go with the flow of the times and ride the wave, or use the advantages of rebirth to avoid misfortune and seek goo...
Chapter 554 Change to a bigger one
Sheng Xiping, Alexander, and others rarely get together, so they inevitably have to chat about their recent situations.
Andrei, Sergei, Vishnyak, and several others joined together to start a trading company, and their business expanded from the Far East to Moscow along the railway.
Today, their accumulated wealth has already placed them among the ranks of the rich.
Alexander, Viktor, and Ivanov have special identities; they have no overt roles within the company and can only provide support from behind the scenes.
Of course, they also benefited greatly, depositing large sums of wealth in overseas banks.
Moreover, through these special trades, Alexander gained the respect of his superiors and his position continued to rise.
If things continue to develop like this, the future is limitless.
It doesn't matter if it's a Su-27 or anything else, as long as it can be exchanged for money.
This soda machine was specially commissioned by Iceberg Cola Factory and Sheng Xiping to be designed and manufactured by another factory, modeled after the Pepsi machine, and is intended for use in the catering areas of several major shopping malls.
Ivanov seemed afraid that Sheng Xi might change his mind, and quickly gave his assurance.
About an hour later, Guo Shouye called back and said that he had agreed to Sheng Xiping's request.
"Alexander, I'm thinking of buying another batch of Su-27s, about twenty or so. What do you think, is it possible for you to take this deal?"
Once the drinks had reached this point, it was time to get down to business. So, after putting down his glass, Sheng Xiping took the initiative to bring up the purpose of his trip.
This year, the Iceberg Beverage Factory earned five to six million US dollars in foreign exchange. The factory will likely have to operate 24 hours a day to ensure timely delivery of these orders.
This time, we don't need Su-27s. TY-114s, TY-154s, Il-76s—any of these will do. At least five in the first batch. We'll trade supplies. How about it?
Alexander and his men slept for a day, and after waking up the next day, they returned to Blagoveshchensk and then contacted their superiors.
Alexander and his entourage were visiting for the first time, and everything in the capital was new and exciting. So they visited all the major attractions, including the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, and the Temple of Heaven.
Sheng Xiping understood that Guo Shouye had gone to discuss things with Director Xu, so he left his phone number and the two hung up.
And so, Sheng Xiping finished his meal with Alexander and the others, and then escorted them back to their hotel to rest.
Sheng Xiping had already guessed that Guo Shouye, with his limited intelligence, could never have generated millions in foreign exchange with mineral water; there must be a mastermind behind him.
In this way, Sheng Xiping successfully persuaded Alexander and others to accept his offer.
Having collaborated so many times already, there was nothing to be shy about, so Sheng Xiping asked directly in front of everyone.
Our elders always say that friends should share money, meaning that friends can help each other and spend each other's money.
The rest will be paid for with supplies. As for the price, it will be the same as last time.
Looking at the dazzling array of goods, especially the internationally renowned luxury brands, Alexander and his companions were filled with envy.
This year, our beverage factory earned over five million US dollars in foreign exchange, most of which came from mineral water orders, with the remainder from fruit juice.
After obtaining approval from his superiors, Sheng Xiping invited Alexander and others to visit the capital and Shanghai.
"It's not that I'm amazing, it's that my brother Xu is amazing, hahaha." You could hear the smugness in Guo Shouye's voice over the phone.
Upon hearing Alexander's tone, Sheng Xiping knew that the Russians were truly rotten to the core these days.
Sheng Xiping relayed Andrei and Ivanov's proposal over the phone and asked Guo Shouye for his opinion.
"Ivan, this machine needs to be equipped with concentrated cola juice, compressed carbon dioxide, etc. The machine alone is useless."
Upon receiving the news, Sheng Xiping immediately reported it to his superiors, who deemed the payment method acceptable.
Guo Shouye was overjoyed on the other end of the phone.
If cola concentrate is supplied directly, there is no need for dilution, bottling, packaging, or transportation.
By exporting, most of the workers can be freed up to focus on mineral water orders.
As for what brand Andrei and his team would use after purchasing and producing the goods, that's not their concern.
Sheng Xiping looked in the direction Ivanov was pointing and saw that it was a Coca-Cola machine.
"What do you want? Whether it flies in the sky, runs on the ground, or swims in the water, just name it and we'll get it for you," Ivanov promised happily.
Alexander and Victor looked at each other and then both laughed.
The first batch of Su-27s landed at Heihe Airport on April 18th, and the second batch arrived shortly after.
Guo Shouye was incredibly straightforward; he agreed without even asking any questions.
"Great, then I'll wait for news in Heihe."
"Brother, leave this to me. It's just candy, right? I'll get it for you." Sheng Xiping laughed as soon as he heard that.
"We don't need the formula. You just need to bring the concentrate and equipment, then dilute, fill, and sell it." Andrei had a sudden inspiration and excitedly spoke while gesturing.
Helpless, Guo Shouye could only tell Sheng Xiping to give him some time to discuss it, and that he would reply to Sheng Xiping later.
With all these arrangements made, Sheng Xiping breathed a sigh of relief and immediately went to find Andrei and the others to tell them the good news.
Sheng Xiping had also drunk a bit too much, but when dealing with Russians, you can't back down when it comes to drinking. If you don't drink, how can you discuss the cooperation later?
So Sheng Xiping also picked up his wine glass, clinked it with everyone, and downed it in one gulp.
"It's okay, we're friends, and friends don't distinguish between each other."
