Who brought the carrier Varyag back to China?

It was Xu Zengping,

During the period of 1988, Xu Zengping, the chairman of Hong Kong Chuanglv Group (Macau Chuanglv is its subsidiary), led his assistant to Ukraine for many times to negotiate, and finally bought the old carrier Varyag at a price of 20 million US dollars (including penalty interest and lawsuit, which cost 1 100 million US dollars).

(Attachment: After public bidding, China officially won the bid for the aircraft carrier with US$ 20 million and more than 300,000 design drawings weighing nearly 20 tons. Of course, some key design drawings are missing. )

1In July, 1999, Chuanglv Company hired a tugboat to tow the Varyag for a long voyage, which lasted four years (detained in Turkey for one and a half years) before it was towed back to China from Ukraine.

Mr. Wang was born in the army before and went to Hong Kong after he retired. I can't say more about the rest, just experience it for yourself. .
