As it happens, Alexi Zukhov was waiting for Don Luciano to call, though he was very careful not to let on until Camparelli had already made his sales pitch. Judging by some of his comments, he also wanted to be sure that his organization wouldn't just be absorbed and subjugated like "Serizy and his Frenchmen". (Each had been subsuming the relevant half of Europe's underworld.) He wanted to be Camparelli's equal; Camparelli wanted the same thing, preferring an alliance to a war for dominion.
By the Trinity Universe's 2004, let alone 2008, the collaborative enterprise created by these two men is one of four vice cartels still left standing on a global scale. The other three are the Medellín Cartel, China's Heaven Thunder Triad, and the Yakuza's Nakato gumi. It is no coincidence that all four employ novas.
