Chapter 0656 cold night
Late at 2 o'clock in the evening, Lieutenant Colonel Lviv walked out of the Nikolskaya Hotel in the center of Moscow. He looked back at the magnificent hotel lobby, and foreigners were hugging beautiful women in and out.
The lieutenant colonel felt very uncomfortable.
The Slavs in Eastern Europe were a messy mixed race in terms of blood and culture. Over the long history, they were in a state of backwardness in the tribal alliance for a long time.
It was not until Peter I began to carry out drastic reforms to the country in the early 18th century that the bear gradually formed a formal country.
This was already the middle and middle period of the Qing Dynasty, and Kang Mazi had been in power for almost forty years.
Anyone who wants to say that Mao Xiong has a long history and culture, please slap him in the face directly.
Hairy bears have strong Mongolian genes. The population of 2-mao and 3-mao is still white. In fact, there are more yellow-skinned people.
But from a geopolitical perspective, the Russians always wanted to become European countries from the bottom of their hearts. After the disintegration of the alliance, as a remnant of a great empire, the Russians did not want any outsider to be better than themselves.
It’s like the old and young men in the Qing Dynasty were dissatisfied with the end of the country.
From a historical perspective, the rise and fall of a country are not completed in a short time.
for example
The decline of the Qing Dynasty can be calculated from the **** War in 1840. But this is just the beginning.
Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement in 1851.
The Second **** War in 1856.
The Westernization Movement in 1861 intended to revive.
Sino-French War of 1883.
The Sino-Japanese War of 1894.
The 1911 Revolution.
Behind them are the chaos of the Republic of China, the War of Resistance Against Japan, and the War of Liberation.
We have been able to survive until 1949, and more than a hundred years have passed. We have suffered so much before we crawled out of the abyss. We looked around and the world has changed. We still have to grit our teeth and continue to endure hardships and rebuild the country.
Judging from the series of situations in the next thirty years, the bear in 1991 was still in the '**** War' stage. The unlucky days have just begun, and the bigger, deeper and more bitter mud pit is waiting for it in the future.
As an adjutant of General Chechevatov, Lieutenant Colonel Lviv was full of resentment about this trip to Moscow. He had to ask for help from an Asian monkey and let the other party find ways to meet his needs.
For three months since he took office, the General has been walking on a tightrope. He is in a group of wolves and hungry tigers, and may be swallowed by a certain force at any time. He cannot even trust his subordinates because no one is reliable.
Lt. Colonel Lviv's trip was secret and unknown to outsiders. The content he talked with "Holy Light" was also sensitive, and the two sides agreed to establish a fixed contact group to discuss the details of barter trade.
The General will sell a batch of valuable assets in his hands, such as the fleet of Il-76s with a total of more than 100 aircraft. These military transport aircraft are very detrimental to commercial transportation, and it is meaningless to keep these things.
"Sheng Light" is currently forming an airline. The General decided to sell at least half of these transport aircraft and quickly exchange for a batch of daily necessities to appease the market.
Considering that the four Tu-154s have only replaced 500 trucks of frills, and fifty second-hand Il-76s are 10,000 trucks of frills. Don’t think there are many of them, it’s just the capacity of two or three large container freighters.
I guess I can only change my hands to clothing, side dishes, low-end home appliances and other things.
Lt. Col. L. L.V. argued for this and even slapped Zhou Qingfeng on the table, ultimately safeguarding national interests and demanding additional high-end products worth 100 million US dollars.
Mainly they are communication base stations, program-controlled switches, mobile phones, pagers, and computer equipment. These things are indeed very expensive at present.
Currently, the price of electronic equipment is extremely expensive. Just one communication base station is $100,000, and there is no attachment facility. The price of one hundred base stations is more than $100 million.
Faced with the "blacklist", Mr. Zhou endured the "pain" in his heart and agreed with an extremely "chaotic" expression. However, the President proposed the attached conditions.
"Why don't this be it? It's barter trading anyway. Why don't we make it bigger. I'll give you another $100 million worth of electronic products, and you sell me Nikolayev shipyard, how about it?"
It’s not that you can’t afford to send one hundred communication base stations. At worst, you can get the towers, batteries, cables, and all the auxiliary equipment that the base stations are all provided for free.
Zhou Qingfeng felt that his barter trade was very conscientious.
Anyway, Nikolaev Shipyard located in the Black Sea is currently in a state of suspension, and neither Damao nor Ermao will invest money in the shipyard.
Instead of letting this shipyard rot in the next 20 or 30 years, leaving thousands of technicians separated, tens of thousands of workers unemployed, and the largest and only aircraft carrier assembly base is scrapped.
Not as good as
Sell me for one hundred communication base stations? This transaction sounds quite cost-effective!
Bah!
You a bad-hearted capitalist, blood and dirty things from head to toe. You actually want to spend $100 million
No, this guy is barter. He just wants to buy the shipyard that the Soviets spent decades and invested huge amounts of money to build?
You dream!
The aircraft carrier in the shipyard, with a total of more than 60% completed, is more than this price.
Lieutenant Colonel Lviv "sprays fragrance" at Zhou Qingfeng, and he almost sprayed him to death with salt soda.
"Don't be excited, don't be excited. If you have something to say, isn't this bargaining?"
Zhou Qingfeng comforted him for a long time, but he was still muttering silently in his heart.
"'Nicolayev' was an aircraft carrier with a total of more than 60% completion. But after a lot of trouble, he sold only 20 million US dollars in scrap iron.
There is another "Ulyanovsk" that has built more than 30% of the time. The nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, which is loaded with nearly 90,000 tons, was dismantled into scrap iron by the Eagle Sauce.
As for the Nikolayev shipyard, it is the rusty industrial wasteland on the beach. The empty and expensive ship platform is covered with weeds, and the huge gantry can only be used to recall regrets.
There are only 2,000 elderly and weak workers left to survive, and young people have to leave to make a living. All the equipment and assets in the factory can only be sold at a low price, and everything has gone to nothing."
well
Lviv was walking in the wind and snow outside the hotel, and the low temperature of more than ten degrees below zero made him tighten his neck. He had to hike for a distance before he took an old-fashioned "Volga" he was riding on when he came, and he recalled the conditions that Zhou Qingfeng drove.
"One hundred million US dollars is not enough, you can add it."
As for how much to add, there is no discussion. This requires the leaders of both sides to have relevant intentions and arrange for the liaison team to conduct further consultations.
In real history, rabbits have asked for prices in 1992 years, but they only asked for prices. Ermao quoted a billion US dollars, which directly scared the poor rabbit away.
Lviv walked out of the hotel and thought with certainty: "The shipyard will not sell it, and it will definitely not sell it. This is a national heavy weapon. How could you sell it?"
But when he sat in the old "Volga" sedan and held the faded steering wheel with both hands, Lviv, who came to meet in secret, was not so confident.
At least he came to the talks on behalf of the forces that dominated one side, but he had to sneak in and not even have many entourages, for fear of being exposed.
Your Excellency General is now like a mouse in a bellows, looking for a way out everywhere.
Selling at a low price? Only outsiders can't imagine it, but there is nothing that Ermao can't do. But when you think a deal is very poor, Ermao can create a more loss-making deal that will shock you.
In November 1991, a Norwegian company had already proposed to Nikolayev Shipyard to build six cargo ships and indicated that it would be built on the Shipyard's Shipyard's Shipyard's Shipyard.
At the same time, an American steel company expressed its willingness to offer a high price to acquire scrap steel from the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "Ulyanovsk", provided that it is removed.
This is what has happened. It was just because General Chechevatov came to power, Ermao's family was in chaos and things were not going well.
Lieutenant Colonel Lviv knew the interests behind such a big deal, and only those who had a mind would believe that this was not a coincidence. To put it bluntly, isn’t it just that he wanted to dismantle the only nuclear-powered aircraft carrier under construction by the Red Navy?
But this really happened.
The 'Ulyanovsk', the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier of the Red Navy, began construction at the end of November 1988 and stopped at the end of November 1991.
In just a few months, in early February 1992, Damao and Ermao would reach an agreement to remove the "Ulyanovsk" on the Zero ship platform in order to build a cargo ship order placed by the Norwegian company.
This decision is amazingly fast. If you don’t have any inner demons, you won’t believe it.
As a result, as soon as the ship was dismantled, the Norwegian order disappeared, and the Americans who collected scrap iron also repented.
The people at Nikolayev's shipyard were stunned and found nothing.
It doesn't matter, a small scene.
Do you think this is the biggest loss Ermao has ever suffered?
The pattern is like this!
There will be even greater losses later.
Ermao is so incompetent, falling from one pit to another bigger pit. The global champion is a title that is definitely not a praising name.
And now
Chapter completed!
