Chapter 1314 – Minsk
Feng Yu finally heard from Kirilenko after waiting for two days.
“Feng, do you have the time to go to Minsk with me?”
Feng Yu is overjoyed. This means there is a possibility of getting the technologies he wanted. Although this is not confirmed, it’s better than nothing.
“Yes. I can leave anytime.”
Feng Yu might consider again if he is going to Minsk alone. But with Kirilenko going with him, there shouldn’t be any safety issues.
Feng Yu told Hou Haitao about this and asked him to inform the higher-ups. He will try to speak to them, and if he can get it, he will pay for it and donate it to China.
Some people have a lack of identity towards their country, and some are the opposite. But the Chinese are a race, and no matter which country you are from, people will still see you as Chinese.
Feng Yu has a high sense of identity towards his country. When doing business, he prefers to deal with the Chinese. Of course, if the other party refuses to identify themselves as Chinese, then he will not give them any business.
This is a great opportunity. If Feng Yu succeed, the Chinese military will become more powerful. Just look at the Afghanistan war. Although the US does not have any airports there, they can use their carriers to launch air raids and support their ground troops.
Aircraft carriers are floating airports and are critical in modern warfare. If a country does not have any aircraft carriers, it will never be a superpower.
Even if China has nuclear weapons, it will be useless. No one dares to use it, and they can only use other military weapons and equipment to go against other countries. This is where their disadvantage lies.
…….
The plane landed. Feng Yu and Kirilenko walks out of Minsk airport.
A Bentley limousine is parked outside the airport. A young man alighted from it and ran to Kirilenko with open arms.
Feng Yu is surprised because that young man is younger than him.
Kirilenko and that young man hugged and introduced him to Feng Yu. “Feng, this is Alexander, which I was telling you. Alexander, this is the World’s Richest Man, which you had always wanted to meet. Feng Yu.”
Feng Yu extended his hand for a handshake, but Alexander pulled him over and hugged him.
Luckily, Alexander is around Feng Yu’s size, and his hug is not as strong as Brother Ki’s.
“Kirilenko, Feng, please get on board.”
Feng Yu looked at the interior of the Bentley and noticed it is an older model. This is not as comfortable as Songjiang’s limousine.
This guy’s net worth should be much lesser than Brother Ki. This is not surprising as Ukraine’s economy is much better than Belarus.
This is the former Soviet Union’s third country, and they will not even enter the world’s top 50 countries. When the Soviet Union dissolved, Belarus had gotten much lesser benefits compared to Ukraine.
“Feng, try this alcohol. This is China’s imported Huangjiu. The alcohol content is very low, and I heard you don’t like to drink high alcohol content drinks.”
Feng Yu smiled and took a sip. The alcohol content is very low and should be around the same alcohol content as red wine. But Feng Yu stopped after one sip.
Feng Yu does not like to drink before any business negotiations. Smart businessmen must be alert at all times. Those that drink and sign contracts are not up to standard.
“Not bad. It’s rare to taste my country’s wine overseas. Thanks.”
“Hahaha… Feng, you are just like what Kirilenko said. You will not take big gulps of wine. Don’t worry about this. I will not laugh at you.”
Feng Yu looks at Kirilenko. Why should I be laughed at when I don’t like to drink?
“Alexander, you are quite impressive to get to where you are at your age.”
“Feng, stop mocking me. I am nothing when compared to you. Also, I got my father’s support, unlike you. I heard from Kirilenko that you had started from scratch.”
Alexander is also a second-generation in Belarus. He can be friends with Kirilenko means his father must also be a high-ranking official in Belarus.
But Feng Yu does not know a lot about Belarus. If not, he can guess who his father or grandfather is.
“Alexander, you don’t need to say this. We had been working well all this while, right?” Kirilenko laughed.
“Of course. If you had not asked me to set up the supermarket chain with you, I would not have my fortune now.”
Feng Yu did not know that Alexander is Polar Bear Supermarket Group’s partner.
Kirilenko can choose this person to be his partner means his family is influential in Belarus.
All of Kirilenko’s partners in the former Soviet Union countries have strong and influential backgrounds.
“Feng was the one who suggested the supermarket business. China’s biggest supermarket chain, which is also the world’s fourth-biggest supermarket chain, is set up by him.” Kirilenko laughed.
Even though the Tai Hua Supermarket Group had become the world’s fourth-biggest supermarket chain, its assets are still far from the top supermarket chains. If the supermarket chains are ranked according to their assets only, they will not even enter the top ten.
But if they compare their market size, Tai Hua Supermarket is ranked third, behind Walmart and Carrefour. They also have stronger potential than the first and second.
“Of course, I must thank Feng. According to your Chinese customs, I must host a banquet to welcome you. I had made arrangements to let you try our Minsk cuisine. It is a Chinese tradition to drink in banquets, right?”
Feng Yu’s face changed. Is this Alexander an alcoholic like Kirilenko?
