My Realistic Simulation Game

Chapter 147 sets up a grand scheme, ruthlessly undermining the Soviet Union.

Volga Automobile Plant.

As evening fell, several luxury cars slowly drove into the Volga Automobile Plant area without attracting much attention.

However, when the people got out of the car, it clearly surprised Greev, the factory director's secretary who came to greet them.

Because among those who came down, besides Qin Yuan, Binzi, and Magan'er, Berezovsky also came.

He was the one who arranged Kadanikov's itinerary and knew very well that the factory manager would be meeting the "King of Used Cars" at noon the next day.

Now, what's going on?

"Mr. Berezovsky, did you come with Mr. Qin?"

Gleev asked cautiously.

Berezovsky merely gave a cold snort, offering no comment.

His thoughts were still lingering in the train station lounge, on the groundbreaking "new cooperation method" that Qin Yuan had presented to him.

Qin Yuan smiled slightly, taking the initiative to defuse the situation, and asked calmly, "Hello, where is Factory Director Kadanikov now?"

His gaze fell on Gleev, with an undeniable composure.

Glev looked at the unusually young yet distinguished Chinese man before him, paused for a moment, and then realized: "The factory manager is in the finished goods warehouse right now."

"Everyone...did you have dinner before coming? The factory canteen has prepared it..."

"No need, just take us there." Qin Yuan waved his hand.

“Okay, everyone, please follow me.” Glev didn’t dare to delay and immediately led everyone to the dedicated bus stop inside the factory area.

An internal bus connecting the various workshops was already waiting here.

Everyone gets on the bus.

The car drove through the vast and empty factory area, with endless factory buildings, towering chimneys, and cars piled up in the open square outside the window.

Berezovsky seemed very familiar with the place. He noticed the fleeting look of amazement in Qin Yuan's eyes and spoke up: "The Volga Automobile Plant, one of the backbones of Soviet industry."

"This factory covers an area of ​​over 600 hectares and has a total production line length of over 140 kilometers, which is why buses are needed to connect it."

"The finished goods warehouse is where new cars that have just rolled off the production line are parked and are waiting for quality inspection and testing."

Qin Yuan nodded and exclaimed sincerely, "No wonder it is the largest state-owned automobile factory in the Soviet Union and the largest automobile manufacturing base in Eastern Europe."

"The city is planned and built around the city, and the economic lifeline of a city with more than 700,000 people depends on this... The scale is indeed astonishing."

He recalled Wolfsburg, the Volkswagen town in Germany, where the two shared similarities in their "factory-city integration" model.

Seeing Qin Yuan's interest, Glev added a few words about the factory's history and current situation, his words filled with pride, yet also revealing a hint of worry.

Qin Yuan listened attentively and silently wrote down this information.

The bus soon came to a stop in front of a huge factory building that resembled an aircraft carrier hangar.

"Everyone, we've arrived. This is our finished goods warehouse."

The bus slowly came to a stop, and Gleev pointed to the tall factory buildings outside and said.

Several people followed him into the factory warehouse.

What you see first is a row of brand-new Lada and Volga cars.

There are so many that you can't see the end of them!
Unlike the cars parked outdoors, the cars here are noticeably newer and more upscale.

"My God, there are so many cars here?" exclaimed Ma Gan'er, who was following behind Qin Yuan.

Although Binzi didn't say anything, he was also shocked.

The market is so hungry, yet such a huge amount of wealth is hoarded here?
This is simply...a terrible waste!
Qin Yuan narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze sweeping over the steel forest, and the weight that had been hanging over his heart lifted a little more.

The scene before him was even more "spectacular" than he had imagined, which also meant that the Volga plant's predicament was more severe than he had realized.

His gaze inadvertently swept over Berezovsky beside him, and he saw that the "King of Used Cars" had an undisguised gleam of greed in his eyes.

Clearly, the two were thinking the same thing at that moment.

"How are you all doing?"

A deep male voice came from not far away, and with the voice came a tall man with a hooked nose and sharp eyes.

He stepped out from behind a Lada.

It was none other than Kadanikov, the director of the Volga Automobile Plant!

"Factory Director, Mr. Qin, and... Mr. Berezovsky has arrived." Glev immediately stepped forward to report.

Kadanikov nodded slightly, his gaze lingering on Berezovsky for a moment with a hint of scrutiny, but he did not show much surprise.

His gaze was mainly fixed on Qin Yuan: "Mr. Qin, I heard that you closed a big deal in Kuibyshev?"

"Yes, that's true." Qin Yuan admitted frankly, without any attempt to hide it.

The news had already spread, so there was no point in hiding it.

"Mr. Qin, you contacted me through your connections at the Moscow State Bank, is it for a car? Are you planning to barter like Kuibyshev?" Kadanikov asked directly and bluntly.

He disregarded the fact that Berezovsky was right there beside him, and openly stared at Qin Yuan as he walked over step by step and asked a question.

"The original plan was indeed to purchase a batch of Volga and Lada cars from your factory and ship them back to China to test the market response."

Qin Yuan didn't hide anything, but then he smiled and said, "But now, I have a new idea."

"A new idea?" Kadanikov's pupils contracted slightly as he slowly turned his gaze to Berezovsky, who was standing to the side.

If variables arise, why do they arise? It must be because someone is acting as a variable factor.

"Yes, a new idea."

Qin Yuan's aura slowly rose, and he slapped one hand on the hood of the Volga car next to him.

“I have observed that there is a high demand for cars among the Soviet people nowadays, otherwise companies like Rogwarts would not have emerged.”

"In China, the market has been open for more than a decade, and the demand for cars has been rising steadily."

“When I came over, I took a look,” he said, surveying the densely packed rows of new cars around him, “besides the hundreds and thousands parked here, tens of thousands more are lying dormant in the snow in the square outside. This all shows…”

Qin Yuan's gaze returned to Kadanikov, and he said, word by word, "...Your Volga Automobile Plant's original sales system has completely collapsed!"

Kadannikov's expression remained unchanged as he coldly said, "Mr. Qin, don't just say what I know, say something I don't know!"

Having his most painful wound exposed to his face caused him, even a man of such deep composure, to feel a wave of embarrassment and anger.

Qin Yuan, however, didn't seem to care. He pointed at Berezovsky, then at himself, and finally at Kadanikov.

"Distribution channels! Market! Product!"

"The three of us respectively control the Soviet Union's most powerful car sales network, China's huge and hungry consumer market, and the production capacity of the Soviet Union's largest car factory!"

Why not organize a grand event?

"Organizing a gathering?" Kadanikov frowned, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

“That’s right, let’s set up a meeting.” Qin Yuan said decisively, throwing out the long-brewing, earth-shattering plan that was enough to overturn the Soviet automobile industry.

"The three of us will partner up to establish a brand new company and monopolize the exclusive sales rights for all Volga Automobile Plant products in the Soviet Union and China!"

boom--!
Kadanikov felt as if a thunderbolt had exploded in his mind!
Monopoly sales rights?!
This Chinese man... his ambition is so great!
This is no longer a simple transaction; it's about seizing the most core profit link in the entire industry chain!
He immediately looked at Berezovsky.

Berezovsky's gloomy face now looked at him with a serious expression.

There is no doubt that Berezovsky approved of the collaboration.

Upon hearing the plan, Berezovsky immediately envisioned a vast future.

Once there, the new company obtained a monopoly on the exclusive sale of Lada cars in the Soviet Union and China.

They could then leverage their monopoly position to purchase large quantities of cars from the Volga Automobile Plant at prices close to or even below production costs.

After acquiring the cars, they don't even need to sell them directly to consumers. Instead, they sell them at a markup to their own dealer network, who then sell them to consumers at an even higher market price.

The price difference is enormous.

Moreover, once this monopolistic company controlled the supply, it could artificially create market shortages in the Soviet Union, further driving up automobile retail prices.

People who want to buy a car not only have to pay several times the price of the factory price, but also have to wait patiently in a long queue.

Most importantly, they have deep connections with banks!
They could easily leverage financial resources and obtain a continuous supply of cars from the Volga plant by taking out loans without any investment!

Qin Yuan's vast supply network could utilize a "barter trade" model, using raw materials, parts, and even food urgently needed by the Volga Automobile Plant.

They traded cars with factories at a "discounted price" far exceeding the market value in exchange for more vehicles.

This is a business with zero investment and huge profits!
Therefore, how could Berezovsky not be filled with fervor?

After listening to their stories, Kadannikov lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

This is a conspiracy to undermine the Soviet Union!
They are exploiting loopholes and chaos in the system to seize astonishing wealth!

The risk is enormous!

But...why not dig?
How could we not dig?

If we don't dig.

Why did he want to see Qin Yuan? Why did he use force to intimidate Berezovsky and force him to submit?

He already had a rough idea in his mind, but it wasn't as clear, as bold, or as... alluring as Qin Yuan had described!
Qin Yuan's suggestion instantly transformed the vague idea in his mind into a dazzling, tangible reality!

The exorbitant profits involved are enough to make any rational person collapse!
Time passed by minute by minute.

Kadanikov slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping over Qin Yuan and Berezovsky's faces one by one.

Finally, his eyes fixed on Qin Yuan, and he asked a seemingly insignificant yet profound question:

"Mr. Qin, have you decided on a name for this new company?"

Qin Yuan's smile widened instantly: "Auto Union, an alliance of our three companies."
