Chapter 22 Swan Lake Played Nationwide
Due to the time difference, when Zhou Ming and Karelina arrived in the capital of the Soviet Union, Kristo, it was the early morning of the 25th local time, and when Zhou Ming walked out of the hatch, it was pitch black, and there were no stars and moons in the sky.
Zhou Ming walked down the escalator and walked towards the exit under the instructions of the ground staff, here Zhou Ming noticed a detail, that is, when Karelina stepped off the plane, she looked at the dark sky above her head and was stunned for a while, until she turned back to call her, she didn't react, of course, she only said that she was tired when asked her what was wrong, but her appearance was obvious, she must have something on her mind, she just didn't want to say it.
For Zhou Ming, since she didn't want to say that Zhou Ming had no interest in asking, after all, everyone was just a temporary cooperative relationship, and there was no need to get to the bottom of many things.
They came to the exit, but this time Zhou Ming stopped, because there was a television set here, and a ballet Swan Lake was playing on it.
"I didn't expect the country to be in such a mess, and the TV station is still in the mood to show Swan Lake?" these hateful domestic bureaucrats!" Karenina gritted her teeth and said hatefully, she then turned her head and asked Zhou Ming, who stopped here to watch, "Mr. Zhou Ming, why do you also like to watch this dance drama?"
"I'm really interested in this dance drama," Zhou Ming said to Karelina, "Miss Karelina, do you CCTV usually show this dance drama at this time?"
"I don't know about that, because it's up to the central bureaucrats to decide which programs to broadcast on the TV stations. Karelina said that she then felt that Zhou Ming's question was very serious, and then continued, "This time must be the time for late-night shows, which are usually interesting TV series or movies, and ballets are also very good, but they are rarely played at this time." ”
Zhou Ming nodded and didn't say anything, so he directly called the staff at the airport and asked the staff to help change the station, but the staff told Zhou Ming that he couldn't change the station.
Zhou Ming glanced at Karelina, and Karelina asked the other party in Russian: "Why can't you change the station?" I have never heard of when the airport has such a regulation. ”
The staff gave an unexpected answer: "It's not that you can't change the channel, but it's useless to change the channel, because all the TV stations are broadcasting Swan Lake these days." ”
This answer struck Karenina as ridiculous: "Then why don't you change the TV or check the line?"
"It's not that the TV is broken, or that the wiring is faulty, but it's really the case with every station. The staff member replied anyway.
Karenina still couldn't understand, and she didn't understand what Zhou Ming meant, so she could only go back and translate the situation truthfully to Zhou Ming, Zhou Ming didn't say anything about it, and directly gave the staff member a tip and thanked him in Russian, which he learned from Karenina on the plane.
The staff member's eyes straightened when he saw the dollar handed over by Zhou Ming, and then he put on a smile on his face, and said to Zhou Ming very enthusiastically: "This gentleman, you are really a good person, although I don't know what you are going to do when you come to Chrisco, but I still want to tell you, you came at a bad time, because our city has just entered a state of emergency, there is a group of conspirators who are engaged in a coup d'état, and there is a lot of chaos outside, I have better wait for dawn before entering the city." ”
Zhou Ming patiently listened to Karelina's translation, and finally thanked him again, before he turned around and left, of course, before leaving, he shouted to Zhou Ming: "Good luck sir, I hope to see you again!"
After sending the staff away, Karelina came back and asked Zhou Ming: "Mr. Zhou Ming, you care so much about this dance drama, is there anything wrong?"
"It's not a big deal, it's just a little curious, and as you said, I also think it's problematic to put this on a central station at this time slot. ”
Zhou Ming shook his head and said this, he left a sentence "If it doesn't work, it's related to this coup", he didn't say it, because there was no need and he couldn't say it.
In fact, when he saw the ballet just now, Zhou Ming suddenly remembered a very interesting thing, that is, in his previous life, he saw an incident in the later life, saying that it was during this Soviet coup d'état, in order to prevent the people from getting the news, the committee of the Central Committee ordered to cut off the national television network and collectively broadcast this ballet Swan Lake.
The fact itself is ridiculous, and it is entirely a cover-up, and God knows what kind of thinking the person who gave the order at the time had.
However, for Zhou Ming, he did not do this to ridicule anyone, but Zhou Ming thought of another problem, that is, if according to the timeline of the previous life, today is already the early morning of the 25th, the coup has ended as early as the day before yesterday, the president of the Soviet Union has returned to Krishko, and the current ruling party of the Soviet Union should also be dissolved.
But if this is the case, why is this scene still showing on television? Is the coup not over yet? But before he left, didn't the leaders of North Russia go to the White House and lead the opposition in the final struggle against the senior officials of the Soviet coup, shouldn't this coup be quelled quickly? Or is there something wrong with what happened in this life compared with the previous life?
Zhou Ming remembered what the airport staff said just now that the city was very chaotic, and he was even more convinced.
"Let's go, let's go out and have a look. ”
Zhou Ming said this, and then walked out of the terminal with ** and Karelina, just like the exit of the domestic railway station in later generations, at the exit of the terminal of Chrisco Airport, there were also many drivers waiting for customers, they saw Zhou Ming and the three of them come out, and all of a sudden they hula came over, and everyone shouted at Zhou Ming and them.
"This gentleman and young lady are very temperamental at first glance, you should take my car, I promise to get you wherever you want to go as soon as possible. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen are here to visit Chrisco, right? I tell you that I know all about any part of Chrisco, and I can take you to the most affordable hotels, or the best and safest hotels, and I can be your guide here!"
"You guys are the best in my car, because I'm different from them, and my car is the cheapest!"
"What's the cheaper of your car? It's not all because your car is a black car, how can your unsafe car be compared to us? Get out of here, or we won't let you go!"
......
These drivers were still arguing with themselves at first, and then with the addition of several black car drivers, these people were about to fight, although Zhou Ming couldn't understand what they were talking about, but from their appearance, as well as the experience of contacting the drivers outside the train station in their previous lives, Zhou Ming could also roughly guess it.
Karelina, on the other hand, was ashamed of the behavior of her compatriots, who were arguing here for this bit of soliciting money, and it was really shameful that they were still in front of a Chinese.
Zhou Ming thought for a while and said: "Actually, I can take any of your cars, but I think you may not be willing to go where you want to go." ”
Listening to Karerina's translation, the drivers laughed and said, "Are you kidding? Unless you plan to let us go directly to the Supreme Prison or the Presidential Palace, where else do we dare not go?"
"You're right, I'm still going to go to your highest authority, the White House, the Capitol of your North Russian Republic, I think you all know how to go, right?" Zhou Ming asked.
In the face of Zhou Ming's question, the smiles on the faces of these drivers, who were still disdainful just now, suddenly stiffened, some did not know how to answer, and some said: "What are you going to do there, this Chinese gentleman? Didn't you watch the news when you came, sir? There is a war going on there, whoever goes in the past will kill whom, aren't you just going to die now?"
Someone else questioned Zhou Ming: "You're not joking, are you? But your joke is not interesting." ”
Zhou Ming said: "I think I'm normal, I'm not joking, which of you is willing to take me there?"
Hearing Zhou Ming's request, the North Russian drivers who were still hospitable just now suddenly dispersed: "You are simply a psychopath, we won't go to such a dangerous place there! If you want to go by yourself, if you don't have a car willing to go there, you just walk over by yourself!"
This situation allowed Zhou Ming to be completely sure of what he thought in his heart: this coup d'état was really not over yet! And the situation seemed to be getting worse and worse.
Because if Zhou Ming is not mistaken, in his previous life, the army of the coup d'état, the KGB and the people of Kristocco, were on the side of the opposition, coupled with the indecision of the putschists themselves, the situation that should have been one-sided was turned over by the North Russian side in just one day, but these high-ranking officials in the Soviet Union fell one by one.
But now it seems that there is no telling what happened over there, the two sides are actually deadlocked at the gate of the White House, because there are troops, tanks, and KGB agents, and the central government has also sounded the alarm of a state of emergency, no matter how you look at it, it looks like it is going to enter a civil war, how can this not make ordinary Soviet people panic?
But the stalemate in this coup d'état may also be a good thing, especially for itself.
Zhou Ming thought so in his heart, and at this time, a few thoughtful drivers came forward and said to Zhou Ming: "Sir, do you think this is good, we really don't dare to go to the White House, because there is really a war over there, and people will die, we can only send you to the periphery at most, and then you can walk over by yourself." ”
Zhou Ming nodded and said, "No problem, but only if I can see the White House." ”
"Yes sir, but you have to tip me a little more. The driver said.
Zhou Ming smiled: "No problem." ”
