Chapter 225 Good Luck 365

Seriosha, who returned to the Soviet Union, immediately became busy, which was something he had never expected before going abroad. The first thing was the opening of an overseas branch of the Moscow Trading Company. Not long after Seriosha returned to China, he was called to the Supreme Soviet by Gorbachev to discuss the matter of grain imports. Seriosha explained the Canadian government's attitude on this matter in front of several leaders including Gorbachev, and pointed out that it is easy to suffer sanctions if he only relies on imports from Canada. Therefore, in addition to increasing domestic grain production, he also needs to actively expand new overseas import channels.

Seryosha's remarks were mainly to lay the foundation for the overseas expansion plan of Moscow Trading Company, because everyone here knows that there are four main countries in the world that have the ability to control other countries through food, namely the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

These countries have strong food production capacity and their own food consumption is not large. Therefore, they can achieve certain political goals by relying on their ability to manipulate food, which is called food power internationally. The status of the above four countries in the food field is similar to the voice of Saudi Arabia and other countries in oil, which is not an alarmist statement. Many African countries have suffered from food blackmail from these countries. They can control international food prices with their own market status, implement food embargoes or use political conditions to achieve their goals. In fact, everyone knows what Selyosha means. The so-called overseas branches are measures taken to break the food blockade in these countries. In an emergency, Selyosha can even smuggle grain to the Soviet Union through these branches by default. In other words, the official can acquiesce to smuggle grain from abroad and return to China.

Originally, these good things could not fall on Seriosha, but a missile in the Far East completely changed everything, and trade sanctions were inevitable. Now, in order to deal with trade blockade of Soviet food and major agricultural products, the Soviet Union has reduced the tax rate of agricultural product imports to nearly zero, but the Soviet Union's grain import volume is continuing to decline. Seriosha has to a certain extent shouldered the responsibility of saving national food security.

After the meeting, Gorbachev called Selyosha to his office and clearly required him to ensure that he had to import one million tons of wheat and several other agricultural products from China every month. Selyosha understood that Lao Ge was putting all his treasures on him. If he couldn't handle this, Lao Ge would be completely unable to survive. Not only did Lao Ge's prestige be ruined, but he would also lose all his future. This time, Selyosha must do his best to hold on to the import of grain.

After leaving the Supreme Soviet, Seriosha returned to the Youth League Committee to discuss the Moscow trading company's business. Seriosha planned to change the name of the Moscow trading company, at least not knowing that it was a Soviet company at first glance, because such a name can easily attract others' attention abroad. So the first thing is to give the Moscow trading company a new name. Seriosha expected that his first batch of branches and offices would mainly be opened in Italy, Turkey and other places, so he was finally named the Mediterranean Trading Company.

After consultation with Mikhail, everyone decided to devote their main energy to two branches in Italy and Poland, and also to open offices in Switzerland, Turkey and other places. After Seriosha and Mikhail decided on the big things, Seriosha explained to Mikhail to negotiate with the Soviet Civil Aviation Company to rent five tu144d tus from the Soviet Civil Aviation Company to open a freight company in Poland, and also discuss the maintenance and training of these five aircraft with the tu144d production line in Voronezh to discuss the issues of maintaining and training pilots of these five aircraft. Seriosha suddenly explained a lot of work to Mikhail, except for one thing and a small thing.

This matter is about William Hill. With the help of Rothschild Bank, Yuri successfully won William Hill. Now William Hill's two major businesses, hotel chains and sports betting, will be split into two companies. There is no problem with the chain hotel chain, and Yuri will naturally deal with this matter. However, William Hill's gambling business is a bit troublesome. This company runs sports events, including the Premier League, the English League One, the FA Cup, and a variety of events such as tennis, horse racing, and dog racing. However, all events have to do one thing before they start to accept betting, that is, calculate the odds of the event.

This kind of thing is not an easy job. You should know that the reason why William Hill faced a shortage of funds was due to their large odds error, which led to poor management of the gambling business. Therefore, the calculation of odds has become the key point of the company's business.

Seriosha happened to know the most suitable candidate, that is Grigori. Grigori's talent in gaming is unquestionable, so Seriosha wants to go to Leningrad to ask Grigori what he meant to see if he was interested in managing the bookmaker he just acquired.

The next day after Seriosha arrived in Leningrad, he made an appointment with Grigori to go fishing in the suburbs. He asked his guards in Leningrad to find a small yacht for him, and then sent someone to pick up Grigori on the boat. Then the two of them drove along the Neva River to the nearshore of the Baltic Sea.

The two of them set up fishing rods on the side of the boat, drank beer and enjoyed the beautiful scenery on the sea, and quietly waited for the fish to bite the hook. Seryosha and Grigori chatted and explained the whole story of the matter clearly. Grigori was very interested when he heard it. Predicting the results of the sports event was simply too interesting.

"But Seriosha, I can't do this alone. It involves statistics, probability theory, and even non-European geometry. I probably have to find a lot of people to do it together!" Grigori thought for a moment and told Seriosha all the difficulties he had thought of.

"It's okay, do you remember that our Moscow Youth League Committee has a Youth Science and Technology Center? We can pay your friends. Don't worry, the money is not a problem. Even if you want a large computer, I can get it for you!" Selyosha patted his chest and promised.

"That's great. Many of my classmates and even teachers live a tight life. Who wouldn't be happy if you earn extra money?" Grigori said excitedly. This kind of good thing is to kill more people, to make more income, to apply mathematical knowledge to reality, and to watch foreign competitions. This is the most ideal part-time job for mathematicians.

"I plan to set up a small company for this project, which is under the name of the Moscow Youth League Committee. How about you say our company is called Good Luck 365?" Selyosha asked Grigori for advice and asked...
