On the bank of the Baltic waves.
On the bank of the Baltic waves.
The Kaliningrad area, or the former East Prussia, - most
The western region of Russia. It has no with mother country of general border,
And borders on Lithuania and Poland.
The area is traditionally strong a pulp and paper industry,
Its geographical isolation has caused need in
To the centralised system of a cargo transportation. And still there there is an oil.
The main representatives also have succeeded in these three directions
Business elite of the Kaliningrad area.
Militian training lukojlovskogo the lobbyist.
To become rich and influential it is very simple, if it was possible
To be warmed on a supervising post in an oil kingdom. But a way there
It is accessible not to everyone. On the other hand, for success at all
Necessarily many years burit chinks and to carry an assembly helmet.
Organising abilities and commercial vein have helped the were
To militiaman in the beat Feodor Jaroshevichu to become the chairman
Open Society "LUKOIL-KALININGRAD" board of directors.
In 1969 pjatnadtsatiletnim the boy has arrived Fedja JAroshevich in
Kaliningrad from the Belarus village New Ore. Has entered
morehodku, married, it was hardly executed eighteen, and has left in
Army. Wife Lyudmila waited it already with a small daughter. On
Returning from army Jaroshevich has gone to militia school. Soon
The second daughter was born.
With all family JAroshevich has lodged in a small room
Hostels. Working as the militiaman in the beat, has received the one-room
Apartment in a semi-basement of the old house. The wife and the oldest daughter to these
Time recollect, how it was necessary to take out faecal waters,
Which regularly filled in a ground floor.
Who knows, if have given it then good apartment, can,
The life would develop differently. But habitation have promised only in the regional
goskomselhoztehnike where he as a result also has got over. First
Worked as the engineer, but soon has confidently gone upwards: has made itself felt
Talent of the manager (in present language - the manager). By the way,
Even the name of the speciality received JAroshevichem in absentia in
The Leningrad agricultural institute, sounds as
"Economist-organizer". As a result cheerful and cheeful
The former divisional became in goskomselhoztehnike the chief
Transport management.
He was engaged in oil only in 1988 when has passed in
Production association "Kaliningradmorneftegaz", and already in
1989, in reorganisation, became the chairman oil-extracting
The co-operative society organised at association. By the way, "the black
Gold "has been found in Kaliningrad only in 60th years,
Industrial extraction has begun in 1975. Since then in the most western
Region of Russia it is reconnoitered oil much more, than it is extracted (stocks
Reach 275 million tons, and 700 thousand is annually extracted only
Tons).
In 1992 in region deposits have become interested in
Oil company "LUKOIL", and the Kaliningrad area has visited
The command led by the president of the company Vagit
Alekperov. To regional deposits of "the oil general"
The chairman of co-operative society Feodor accompanied among others
JAroshevich. Speak, then the visitor has paid attention on
The vigorous young head. The skilled manager has appeared
Besides the regular guy, the merry fellow having to
To trustful, informal dialogue. Tell, that JAroshevich
Has acted as "massovikom-inventor" - has organised to the Moscow visitors
Fishing, to an ear and shish kebabs.
The catastrophic situation has developed in the autumn of 1993 in area
With fuel - because of deficiency of gasoline the office refuelled only
Cars, and forthcoming winter without ceremony could become for
kaliningradtsev "blockade". Governor Jury Matochkin has addressed to
To the government of Russia with the request to help with fuel. With the official
Visit to Kaliningrad have welcomed the then first vice-premier
Vladimir Shumejko, Vagit Alekperov and thirty ministers. Their result
Trips - creation in the most western region of Russia of joint-stock company
"LUKOIL-KALININGRAD" which general director was
Feodor Jaroshevich is appointed.
Style of its management combines in itself two, apparently,
Mutually exclusive things: democratic character and authoritativeness.
JAroshevich it is simple in dialogue, likes to joke and pobalagurit, and to other
It seems to the subordinate, that the chief can be patted without ceremony shoulder.
But if the employee, having received the task, starts to discuss it
The expediency, JAroshevich can knock on a table a fist and
Obscenely to swear.
For first two months of job in 1993 the headed
JAroshevichem joint-stock company "LUKOIL-KALININGRAD" has put in a city more than 50
Thousand tons of mineral oil - "LUKOIL" black oil burnt almost all
Boiler areas.
Has passed five years, and today Kaliningrad "LUKOIL" is
Holding from 12 enterprises. Tax payments of holding make
About 25 % of the regional budget. In 1998 oil industry workers have listed in
Regional treasury about 120 million roubles.
Till 1996 at "LUKOIL" of special problems with administration
Areas did not arise: retinue of former governor Jury Matochkina
Had a kind feeling for the oil industry workers, which steels for region
It is black oil-rescue crew, moreover and currency brought. By the end
Powers Matochkina between "LUKOIL" and administration
The Kaliningrad area the agreement on working out has been signed
Sea oil field п -6, but, besides the licence,
The set of other documents was required.
Meanwhile the post was entered by the new governor - Leonid
Gorbenko (there was it in the autumn of 1996), and the further settling
Formalities has stopped. The perspective project on working out
Deposits of high-quality oil became for new
Regional administrations an auction subject. Gorbenko has decided what to give
Shelf it is possible also for other oil company (what - precisely not
Was called) on more favourable conditions. There were even attempts through
Court to recognise the licence for working out of this deposit
"LUKOIL" void, but success they have not crowned.
In connection with the arisen problems to Kaliningrad the head has become constant visitor
NK "LUKOIL" Vagit Alekperov. After dialogue with an area management
And oil bosses of local value it has come to opinion about
Necessities of creation lukojlovskogo a lobby in power structures
Region. To the regional Duma it has been decided to move reliable and
The devoted person - the general director "LUKOIL-KALININGRAD"
Feodor Jaroshevicha. In the end of 1997 just there passed by-election in
obldumu, and the former divisional without special efforts became the deputy.
Feodor Jaroshevich first of all was engaged in compromising evidence gathering on
Area administration. Under doubt the target has been put
Expenditure of means from off-budget currency fund,
Formed at the expense of oil sale - as a matter of fact, from
lukojlovskih money.
Collected documents JAroshevich has directed to Moscow to Alekperov for
Acquaintance, and itself at session of the regional Duma has raised the question about
Incompetence of the expenditure made by administration.
Soon Kaliningrad was visited by Vagit Alekperov. After its conversation with
Business with a shelf was put by governor Gorbenko in motion.
The remained documents on working out by deposit "LUKOIL" were
Are quickly issued.
Feodor Jaroshevicha's first step on a way to the power has followed
The second: in the autumn of 1998 he stood in mayors of Kaliningrad.
It was important to "LUKOIL" to plant the person in an armchair of the head
Cities that is why pre-election campaign did not stint. Thus
JAroshevich has been translated with hlopotnoj to a post of the general
Directors of joint-stock company "LUKOIL-KALININGRAD" on representation job - in
Chairmen of board of directors of holding. So Vagit Alekperov
Has taken care of that distracted nothing the candidate for mayors from
Pre-election race.
According to local sociologists, at Feodor Jaroshevicha were good
Chances to become the mayor. First, it in a city is known from elections
In the regional Duma. Secondly, "LUKOIL" associates with the big
Money which after election JAroshevicha could "fall" on
City. Besides during pre-election campaign of joint-stock company
"LUKOIL-KALININGRAD", and without that engaged
Charity, considerably stirred up the activity in
This direction. After a collapse of rouble oil industry workers there is more than month
Filled ambulance cars free of charge, have opened
Charitable dining rooms.
But good chances of a victory and remained chances. JAroshevich in
The first round became only to the fourth. Local analysts assure: it
Has lost because of erroneous strategy. In pre-election race the rich
Company "LUKOIL" has covered the person most JAroshevicha. Besides
The basten pictures representing the candidate with a fishing tackle ashore
The rivers, together with silence in reply to charges of opponents (about them
Hardly more low) have led the population to a conclusion: is silent - means, it is guilty.
After those elections Feodor Jaroshevich continues to lobby
Interests of "LUKOIL" in the regional Duma, not entering thus in one
From political blocks. And recently at session obldumy it
Has made vast speech in the protection, having responded at last on
The charges which have sounded during elections of the mayor. It is a question of participation
JAroshevicha in operation with a federal transfer for the 221 million sum
Roubles - it is studied now by the State Office of Public Prosecutor within the limits of business were
The deputy minister of the finance Vladimir Petrov. The scheme of distribution of these
Money through local Rostrabank he has offered JAroshevich,
Has co-ordinated it with vice-governors Sergey Buchelnikovym and
Alexander Sakanovym. Under statement JAroshevicha, if the scheme
Has gone, the area in 1997 would receive instead of 221 million roubles
310 million - as a result of commercial operations with transfer
Money.
But materials of check of Kontrolno-auditing management
The Ministry of Finance in the Kaliningrad area say that area
Has got nothing, and opposite, has lost: a part of money (66 million)
It has been ostensibly directed on purchase of bills at "LUKOIL", 95 million
Has gone on repayment by "LUKOIL" of credit Rostrabanku etc.
Anyway, JAroshevich continues to execute the deputy
Duties and simultaneously to work in lukojlovskom holding. Though
Say, that since JAroshevicha began to advance in
The power, it has departed from oil affairs and now, except a post
The chairman of board of directors of joint-stock company "LUKOIL-KALININGRAD", behind it
Only external attributes of "the oil general" were saved: office,
The protection, special communication and management of welfare fund
"LUKOIL".
In the regional Duma it always appears in suits of the classical
Breed and at a tie, and at native office can go and in a pullover
House are viscous with buttons on a stomach. In a shower it the adherent
Sports style - krossovok, the T-shorts, convenient free trousers.
Prefers cars "volvo" because they are similar on
Presentable domestic "Volga". Wife Jaroshevicha, Lyudmila,
Asserts, that for 25 years of a joint life the husband never was in
Hairdressing salon: he trusts a hairstyle of the hair only to the spouse.
Self-defence without the weapon.
The general director of the forwarding company
"transrejlvest" Anatoly Hlopetsky in the early childhood differed
Strong will and ambition. In the homeland, in the small Moldavian
To village hitreshty, ten years' Roofing felt itself has constructed a horizontal bar,
Has got a bar and has started to train. Daily in any weather
It ran on country roads from six to fifteen
Kilometres, was wrung out, tightened, engaged in sambo-wrestling. A recognition
Has come, when an idol of rural boys, the local athlete, has come in
The court yard to young Hlopetsky also has uttered to retinue: "This becomes the champion
The world on sambo-wrestling ". Sneers, contemporaries to Roofing felt zauvazhali have stopped
Also have made in rural "authorities". Since then will, energy and
Persistence on achievement of the purpose of a steel by its vital credo. The champion
The world it and did not become, but sambo-wrestling is engaged all life.
Today Anatoly Hlopetsky supervises over holding from ten
The enterprises with an annual turnover $130 million the Most successful it
Company "ц ц ц б ц ц ц б?б?цЁц ц ц " created in 1994 became business -
The charter agent of Ministry of Railways of the Russian Federation. Then in Kaliningrad area,
Torn off from Russia, there was a sharp necessity for system,
Providing reliability of transport streams, and our hero
In time has occupied an empty niche.
The energetic general director of company "ц ц ц б ц ц ц б?б?цЁц ц ц "
Anatoly Hlopetsky purposefully untwisted the various
Business directions: ekspedirovanie (transportation and
Support of cargoes to destination), customs registration,
Sale of coal and mineral oil, torfodobychu, rybodobychu and
rybopererabotku, sale of cars.
Wide popularity has come to the general director of the company
"transrejlvest" in the autumn of last year after attempt, the truth,
Unsuccessful most to sit down in an armchair of the mayor of Kaliningrad. On the extreme
To the measure, one it has achieved - now everyone in region knows:
Hlopetsky - the person rich. He in every possible way developed this subject,
Assuring the people from screens of TVs and newspaper strips, that on
Pre-election campaign spends the blood. The people have understood so: if
The blood have gone on elections, means, all the rest already is.
It is authentically known, that the very first steps to the world of money-bags
Have been made Hlopetsky quite in the spirit of time: at first it became
"Shuttle". In the most western region of Russia Anatoly Hlopetsky
Has arrived in 1983, after service to armies. Low sambist
Athletic addition 21 years old, it was arranged to work in
"Mortransflot". Four years went to the sea, being responsible for safety
Cargoes (was the assistant to the captain on transportations).
Having descended on coast, in 1986 has entered Kaliningrad
The state university on physical culture and sports faculty, and
In parallel was engaged in realisation of children's dream - creation
Schools of sambo-wrestling and a judo in Kaliningrad. Today its child has
The status of sports school of an Olympic reserve.
The thought about ekspedirovanii cargoes has come to mind Hlopetsky already
After "chelnochestva". Communications since times were saved
"Mortransflota", there were the people who have offered to sports brotherhood
Hlopetsky ekspedirovat the first cargo (100 tons of an onion) from one
The country end in another. It has turned out successfully. Further transportations became
More, other money, allowed to start has gone absolutely to
To development of a new direction - rybodobychi. Hlopetsky has leased
At base of trawling fleet old ship "nerej" also has sent it
To Northern Atlantic on lov a mackerel and a herring.
In 1994 the joint decision of Ministry of Railways and administration
The Kaliningrad area has been created already mentioned
"transrejlvest" where Anatoly became the general director
The Hlopetsky. The company is engaged railway, automobile and
Aviatransportations, transfer of cargoes in ports. Today at firm
More than one and a half thousand constant clients, among them "Uralkaly",
Novolipetsky metallurgical combine, NPV "the Russian seeds",
"Sojuzkontrakt", "prodintorg", "eksima", Petro Carbo Chern,
Atlantik RO-RO Carries etc.
All enterprises and directions in holding are headed by relatives
Friends Hlopetsky - basically the former sportsmen, among which
There are champions and prize-winners of the Russian and international tournaments.
Last year's attempt of advancement Hlopetsky in the power - on
Post of the mayor of Kaliningrad has surprised many. Local politicians
Confirm: as a push the situation connected with compelled has served
Sale Hlopetsky actions of sea trading port. Originally
General director "transrejlvesta" wished to concentrate
Considerable number of actions in the hands to break them into the separate
Packages and to sell to large consignors. It was supposed, that
Solid Russian and foreign firms become owners of actions.
They will be included into board of directors of sea trading port and will start up
Through it the cargoes. But the regional administration has interfered with the plan, too
Reckoning on actions of trading port.
At first from influential regional officials Hlopetsky have gone
Offers to sell a package available for it. Further have begun to sound
Threats from unknown persons by phone, then on Hlopetsky have pressed
Vice-governor Michael Carriage and governor Leonid Gorbenko.
The Hlopetsky did not recede. Then on all enterprises of holding
Checks - infinite, wearisome fell down. Half a year
Hlopetsky with companions held defence, but as a result has decided to leave
With actions that the administration has left him alone.
The Hlopetsky has outright become angry on the power and has decided to become itself
The power - has set in mayors as resolutely, as once in the childhood
Has gone in for sports. Over pre-election image Hlopetsky worked
The skilled Moscow command, was published by 160-thousand circulation
The free newspaper "a support Point". Headings spoke for themselves:
"It is impossible to give the city of L.Gorbenko and M.Karetnomu","L.Gorbenko
Should leave ". The edition has undertaken furious attack to others
Candidates for mayors with application of the compromising evidence and satirical
Materials: "J.Savenko's Anatomy eyes of candidate F.Jaroshevicha",
"Jury Savenko or Who has set fire rejhstag" is afraid of whom. On
To TV even the film about the Sakhalin small town was shown
Korsakove where once was the mayor participating in pre-election
To race Jury Savenko. From the screen assured, that the housing-and-municipal
Economy Korsakova collapsed on eyes because of
Incompetences and divergences of the mayor.
On elections Anatoly Hlopetsky has taken the second place, and the mayor became
Savenko which right after summarising has declared about
The Hlopetsky: "I more never will submit hands to this person".
Meanwhile advancement Hlopetsky in the power, probably, not
Has ended: if it has laid down for itself(himself) the aim will go
Up to the end. Today anybody does not have doubts that the general
The director of company "ц ц ц б ц ц ц б?б?цЁц ц ц " in 2000 will put forward the
Nominee on a post of the governor of area. Now it it is active
Communicates with Vladimir Nikitin, the deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation from
The Kaliningrad area from fraction "Democracy". Hlopetsky
Has put many forces to head regional branch
Movements "Fatherland", but at the last minute on unknown persons
To the reasons has given way to Nikolay Toropovu, too
Standing for mayors of Kaliningrad.
And in December Hlopetsky itself has created the political
Organisation "Alarm" and actively untwists it in Kaliningrad and
Areas by means of under control mass-media. Today in his hands
Broadcasting company "п п п я TV" and printing house "Sprint". There are data, that
Anatoly Hlopetsky tried to redeem a controlling interest
The regional newspaper "Kaliningrad truth", but unsuccessfully.
Every day Hlopetsky it is calculated on minutes. He sleeps no more
Four-five hours, even floats in Baltic sea in the winter. Has passed
On a separate food, almost does not eat some meat and fish. Eats in the afternoon
Only at restaurant "б б б б б б б?ц?" belonging to it. Does not smoke. On
Job Hlopetsky goes by office "Mercedes". Lives in
The spacious house in silent street in prestigious October area
Kaliningrad. Confidants assure, that it the good father. At
Hlopetsky three sons, two from first marriage and one from the second.
The first wife does not hold harm on the former spouse, as
Secretaries Hlopetsky are warned: it is necessary to communicate with it as
Politely, as well as with present "half". The second wife, Elena, -
The leader of Kaliningrad television channel "Prime minister".
Paper "soplivchiki" from the cellulose boss.
The silent voice and intelligent manner of dialogue distinguishes
The general director of joint-stock company of joint venture "п?п п©я я я я " ("Cellulose of Prussia")
Boris Ovchinnikova from neighbours in a business rating. Any dialogue with
Ovchinnikovym very soon turns to its unostentatious monologue,
Plentifully flavoured soft kartavym "r". Suits Ovchinnikova
Always excellent quality: he prefers to fill up clothes in
Trips abroad. But the adherent of classical style
The cellulose boss you will not name: a dark blue jacket, on it
To opinion, it is quite combined with light grey trousers.
Ovchinnikov has ended the Leningrad technological academy, but
Till now the special attention giving is engaged in self-education,
To legal and economic sciences. In business counts all to
Last trifle and always stays in frets with the law. Realisation
Any project Ovchinnikov begins with its detailed study
Legal basis. Anyway, so confirm the business
Partners Ovchinnikova.
The president of company "п?п п©я я я я " never admits, how much
Actions of the native enterprise it is concentrated in his hands, but thus
Does not hide, that possesses the greatest package.
In system of pulp-and-paper manufacture Boris Ovchinnikov
Quarter of the century works, it began with a post of the chief of shop.
The enterprise nowadays headed Ovchinnikovym, in 1990 became
The pioneer of privatisation among pulp-and-paper combines
Areas. On the constituent assembly of shareholders the future cellulose
The boss has offered the scheme of development of the enterprise with the tempting
Exit prospects on the European market. The inspired public
Has almost unanimously selected the then the chief engineer
The general director.
For eight years of board Ovchinnikova "п?п п©я я я я " became holding
From six enterprises, in it money of five foreign is put up
The companies. The export gain in structure of incomes makes nearby
70 %. An annual commodity-money turn - about $100 million Today
31 % of actions "TSeprussa" - at foreign firms.
Boris Ovchinnikov shows consideration for new kinds of production
Combine - talking to journalists, it invariably spreads on
Table of packing with multi-coloured napkins and handkerchiefs, not
Forgetting to underline, that disposable paper "soplivchiki" in
Russia lets out only it "TSepruss". Recently on the Kaliningrad
Television channels have started advertising of these paper kerchiefs. The basic
Campaign slogan: "do not carry viruses in the pocket!".
About care and thrift Ovchinnikova in Kaliningrad
Legends go. For example, there is an opinion: if the cellulose boss
Leaves bank (that is translates money resources in another),
The bank will soon burst. So was in 1996 with BaltVneshtorgbankom, so
Happens recently with Investbank.
But if BaltVneshtorgbank has collapsed for the internal reasons,
With Investbank a situation other. Leading commercial bank of region
(On summer ratings of 1998, it was included into number 200 of the largest
Banks of Russia) has fallen a victim of outflow of investors after a sensation,
Lifted by local mass-media concerning leaving therefrom "TSeprussa". At
tselljuloznikov there was the largest share holding of Investbank: on
To various data, it made from 34 % to 42 %.
Speak, shortly before these events between Boris Ovchinnikovym
And the conflict has occurred the former president of bank Andrey Kubanovym:
The industrialist demanded "transparency" of actions of the bank
Managements before a board of guardians, and the banker with it not
Agreed. Then Ovchinnikov has sold the actions belonging
"TSeprussu", and the structure which has bought them has simply dismissed Kubanova and
Has put on its place of other director. Today and Andrey
Kubanov, and Boris Ovchinnikov assure, that the Investbank quite could
To go through last year's crisis, if not the aforementioned
Scandal. However among the Kaliningrad businessmen occurs and
Other version: Ovchinnikov has sold actions of bank of that to it
There was nothing to return credits to foreign partners.
Direct participation in the politician, unlike JAroshevicha and
Hlopetsky, Ovchinnikov does not accept. Thus it always
It is in opposition adjusted in relation to the power, but it is equal so,
That this oppozitsionnost has not started to harm to it. Recently on
Question of one of journalists: "Why you are not liked by the governor
Areas? "- Ovchinnikov not having blinked an eye has responded:" It speaks about
Correct sexual orientation of the governor ".
Actually relations with the head of area at Ovchinnikova
Neutral or as it is accepted to speak, workers.
Ovchinnikov appreciates a cosiness, at it own two-storeyed house, the wife
And two children. The spouse is engaged in housekeeping. It it is frequent
Prepares dishes from fish and seafood, because the such
The kitchen is preferred by the husband.
Boris Ovchinnikov tries to conduct a healthy way of life.
Thirteen years ago he has stopped to smoke. Drinks only the good
Red dry wines. As the best car for the Russian roads considers
Jeep. Its office car - jeep "Mitsubisi-Padzhero", and
Own - Subaru.
He has a rest, as a rule, with a family. During week-end leaves in wood
Or visits "Darfi club" where plays bowling. In the winter
Prefers to have a rest in mountains, and in the summer - in the warm countries on
Sea coast. It is very captious in a hotel choice, where, on it
To opinion, necessarily there should be a fitness hall, training apparatus, pool,
Sauna and other.
And from foreign business trips Ovchinnikov necessarily brings
Beer mugs of the various form. The collection constantly replenishes
New copies.
