YM778.TV Chapter 1316 - Everyone is exhilarated
Belarus has plans to sell some technologies but did not find any buyers. It is not because their technologies are outdated. It is because of the sanctions from Russia and the US.
This time, Kirilenko had brought Feng Yu over, which means Russia had agreed to let them sell their technologies.
Feng Yu is also glad because he doesn’t know anything about these technologies. He needs to get someone who knows about all these to tell him which are worth buying.
That night, Feng Yu called Hou Haitao to get him to inform the higher-ups. It would be best if they can send a team of experts to prevent unnecessary spending. But the team of experts should not be a lot and must be confidential.
Hou Haitao immediately reported this to the higher-ups, and they called for a meeting at night.
“Xiao Hou, tell the rest what happened.”
Hou Haitao is in his sixties, but he can only be Xiao Hou in front of this Leader.
Hou Haitao said. “Leaders, I had just received information that Belarus is willing to sell all of their aircraft carrier battle group’s technologies to us. It is the aircraft carrier battle group and not just the aircraft carrier technologies!”
“Wait! Xiao Hou, how did you get this information?” Someone asked.
How come they are unaware of such important news, and Hou Haitao gets to know about it first?
“This information is not from our side. It is a patriot businessman who told me that, and I believe all of you have heard of him. He is Feng Yu.”
“Feng Yu? That World’s Richest Man?” Someone asked.
“Yes. Most of you might not know that I worked in Bing City Aviation before, and Feng Yu is from Bing City. I can get promoted because Bing City Aviation bought the more advanced aircraft technologies from the Soviet Union with Feng Yu’s help.”
“Those technologies had saved our aviation sector lots of research funds and time. You should know that our helicopter manufacturing technologies can reach world-class standards because of these technologies. We even exported some helicopters overseas last year.”
“Feng Yu is a patriot and has donated astronomical amount to the country annually. When we won the Olympics bid, his companies and he sponsored a large sum. Their sponsorship is the highest in history.”
“Most importantly, Feng Yu told me that he would be paying for all these technologies, and the country doesn’t need to pay anything!”
Wow....
All the generals gasped in shock. They can imagine how much those technologies will cost, and Feng Yu will be paying everything for the country!
It’s rare to find a businessman who is so patriotic.
“What did you say? Did Feng Yu say he is going to pay for everything?” The Leader sitting at the head of the table asked.
He also doesn’t know about this.
“This is what Feng Yu said. From my understanding of him, he will not let us pay a single cent unless he becomes bankrupt from this transaction!”
“Haha... if he can become bankrupt so easily, he will not become the World’s Richest Man with over 60 billion USD assets.” Someone laughed.
“General Lin, you have not to work in companies before. Assets and cash are different. He can own 60 billion USD assets, but that does not mean he has 60 billion USD cash. It’s just like our Bing City Aviation. We have high assets, but how much cash do we have? That’s why we must not think this is a small price for Feng Yu. Many companies had been bankrupted because of cashflow issues.” Hou Haitao spoke up for Feng Yu.
“Xiao Hou, we know Feng Yu will be paying a high price in this deal. But he is doing this for the country, and the country will not let him suffer any losses.” The Leader sitting at the head of the table said. “His companies are paying high taxes in China, right? I can speak to the higher-ups to give him some tax reliefs.”
Everyone in this meeting is smart. They know Feng Yu is willing to help the country now, which means he will help again in the future. They will not kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.
If they had done something to repay Feng Yu now, they would not worry that Feng Yu will not help them in the future. He might even increase his donations to the country. After all, he can’t finish spending his money for the next few generations.
Hou Haitao did not expect the leaders to do this for Feng Yu.
Everyone at the meeting also felt this is the right thing to do. All these will not be deducted from their military expenses. They do not know much about the economy, but they know money is required to increase their military power.
“Xiao Huo, who else knows about this?” Someone asked.
“No one. I had only reported this matter to you all.” Hou Haitao quickly replied.
“Good. This matter must be kept confidential, or the US or Russia will interfere. I will report this to the Premier. Lin Jianxin, form a team of experts and fly to Minsk. Feng Yu needs experts to verify the technologies. Yuan Xinwu set up a business delegation and let our expert team mixed among them to prevent suspicions.”
“Lastly, this matter must be kept among the few of us here. I don’t think you should blame me for punishing you all if news of this matter is leaked! Old Hou, we will remember your contributions.”
Hou Haitao suppressed his excitement. “Sir, I am only a messenger and had not done anything to deserve this. I also must contribute to the nation, and I don’t need any rewards!”
“Good! You are not greedy and not proud. The organization is lucky to have you, but we must still reward you. This reward will be given to you after the deal is completed. Now... let’s move!”
When one of the top leaders knows about this, he is also very excited. He did not expect a businessman to get the technologies that the country could not get.
The Chief Architect had not picked the wrong person. He had said Xiao Feng is a good comrade.
The top Leader immediately approved. “Agree. Do this as discretely as possible We must respect Feng Yu!”
