Recently, all the Ukrainian media reported about the alleged messiah – a businessman, the owner of the Khortytsa vodka company Yevhen Chernyak. He decided to pass himself off as “Wang of the 21st century” and forged his own post of two years of explicitness, I do not understand that Facebook is showing all the edits to publications. “Antikor” writes about this and talks about the career growth of a businessman known today.
Today Evgeny Chernyak is a role model for many, a successful businessman, a start-up, and more recently, also a YouTube star. After a hiatus from 2016, Forbes created a fresh ranking of the richest people in Ukraine, in which Chernyak is in 30th place with a total capital of $ 295 million. In fact, Chernyak’s fortune for 5 years remains at the same level, but only in 2016 he was in 14th place among the richest, but now he has dropped to 30.
A lot is known and written about Yevgeny Chernyak’s past. Was born in 1969 in Zaporozhye in an ordinary Soviet family. At the age of 25, Chernyak received his first higher education with a degree in Foundry Machines and Technology. In the same 1995, Chernyavsky united a group of private entrepreneurs, organizing a distribution company – Trading House Megapolis, until 2002 was its general director. This is where the questions begin. First and foremost: as a young guy who has just finished his professional education in metallurgy, has created a whole successful corporation, I have neither the experience nor the funds for this. The answer may be logical – this is all the brainchild of parents who helped a progressive son, but not everything is so simple. Evgeny’s father Alexander is indeed a fairly well-known person in Zaporozhye, respected since Soviet times. Here is the truth of his merits are not entirely honest and righteous. All his life he was engaged in the purchase of scrap metal in industrial volumes.
The 1990s became a real gift for the Chernyak family, when the Soviet Union began to crumble, and most of the production went “under the machine”, then the field of activity of Alexander Chernyak began to be in excess of what was demanded, and as a result, earnings began in good volumes, although, of course, dishonest.
But still, Chernyak’s parents had nothing to do with distribution, the alcohol industry or sales. Therefore, young Yevgeny Chernyak was able to immediately “break into” adulthood and become a successful businessman in the 1990s, like many at that time, thanks to his good connections in the criminal world, of which Yevgeny himself was a part, being an active member of the group of “Indians” …
“Indians” in the late 1990s, early 2000s had a huge influence in Zaporozhye and the region. Many representatives of the authorities, police, prosecutors, and large businessmen had a relationship with the group. Srednyaya Balka became their home and an opportunity to earn good money.
Chernyak does not deny that in the 1990s he worked in Srednaya Balka, and there he earned his first capital by “working” on landslides, supplying raw materials to the Russian oligarch Konstantin Grigorishin (approx. A native of the city of Zaporozhye), who had the Dneprospetsstal enterprise there “. Even despite the fact that at that time Grigorishin had a conflict with the Surkis brothers on the basis of political disagreements, nothing prevented Chernyak from working with Grigorishin on Srednaya Balka. Primarily due to the fact that, as Chernyak himself said in a 2006 interview: “Surprisingly, the bandits treated me with some respect. They knew that I did not participate in intrigues, that I was not noticed in politics, that I did not climb into gangster squabbles. I don’t go anywhere that goes beyond the system business. These are my unbreakable principles. And if you have principles, then Surkis and Grigorishin, bandits and policemen will respect you.
But there is nothing surprising in this – as has already been described, the “Hindus” at that time had tremendous authority among all the decisions of Zaporozhye – be it the authorities or the security forces, or even the bandits. Everyone knew, feared and respected, so Chernyak was able to work without hindrance in Srednaya Balka, knowing that nothing threatened him there.
After 2001, when Grigorishin’s political project “Yabloko” failed miserably, and people controlled by the Surkis entered the Verkhovna Rada, but this did not prevent Chernyak from controlling the area until 2004. Only at the beginning of 2004, Evgeny Chernyak’s brigades left the dumps. And in 2005, after Medvedchuk’s withdrawal from the imperious “Olympus”, a new attack on the dumps began by Konstantin Grigorishin.
Chernyak returned to the “dump” already in the governorship of Yevgeny Chervonenko and turned around in earnest. A certain Schneider “Mogilevich Semyon” and Shifrin Edik took a share in Chervonenko’s business in the Zaporozhye region. Friends from childhood have been running a joint business quite successfully.
In addition, Evgeny Chernyak, who at that time already had the alcoholic empire “Khortytsa”, was involved in the redistribution of property, and was the founder and owner of CJSC “Charistet”, OJSC “Globalcom-Ukraine”, LLC “Ukrainian Center for Expertise and Reconstruction”, LLC ” Gedeon “, LLC” Ukrainian Registration Systems “, Kharkiv Commodity Exchange, OO Insurance Partnership Ilyichevskoe, agricultural firm” Niva “,” Ukrainian Insurance Company LIFE “, insurance company” East-West “) and Dvoretsky Igor Vladimirovich (head and one of founder of Industrial Bank, as well as the “First All-Ukrainian Bureau of Credit Histories”, TD “Zaporizhstal”, “New Television Channel”, the “Shield” charity foundation), also representing the interests of the “Indians”.
And since that time, Chernyak did not manage to turn into a civilized businessman. To this day, Ukrainian journalists feel the whole quarrelsome character of Chernyak – constant threats, courts, illegal wiretapping, etc. Employees of “Khortitsa” claim that bandit orders still operate at the enterprise, and as confirmation of their words, several years ago they leaked an audio recording of Chernyak during working negotiations in 2011 in Khortitsa. Here is the transcript of the sound of this audio recording (attention, a lot of profanity!)
Chernyak: It’s come! Moron, what is your name, say it !!!
Employee: my name is Belokon
Chernyak: Say your bitch clearly your last name, don’t spit!
Employee: Belokon, my name is Evgeny Oleksandrovich

According to the workers of “Khortitsa”, such working meetings for the manager-Chernyak were the norm, and the staff reacted absolutely indifferently to the drunken tantrums of the vodka baron.
