Chapter 1152: Not a Swallow
Needless to say, Pravda used to be the party newspaper of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, and this can tell its former status!
Seeing the boss's shocked but not angry expression, Andrei said again: "That person banned Pravda, but the editors of the newspaper opened another newspaper of the same name every few weeks, but life was very difficult some time ago.
There was no money, and the office building was confiscated, leaving only a library that had hidden all the archives of the newspaper for decades and no one to take care of it, so it was nested in a temporary rented warehouse.
The distribution channels were still there, but all the assets in the other republics were usurped, and the people who returned to Moscow in the branches had no food and clothing.
Those people have been insisting that the new newspaper cannot even pay their salaries, but the other day it was almost impossible to hold on, and the newspaper may stop publishing again at any time, and they will not even be able to pay the printing fee.
The $3 million purchase price included all the property rights to the newspaper building, as well as the printing house, and the editors had returned to their old office buildings yesterday.
The captain's meaning, we will pay the salary for the first few months, with dollars, to increase cohesion.
We also left $5 million in liquidity for the newspaper, and the editors were the best and most cohesive editors in the Union, who dared to give everything for the sake of the newspaper!
Boss, as long as you can give the newspaper a little blood transfusion behind your back, you can control the largest paper propaganda position in Russia, its influence cannot be eradicated by regime change, it is the truth in the bones of the Russians!
In a few years, the newspaper will be profitable..."
At this time, Zhang Nan interrupted him and said: "Andre, pay attention, I don't care how much wealth a newspaper can create for me, and I don't want to influence the Russian propaganda position.
But I also don't care to spend some money to keep such a glorious newspaper going, and I'm a serious reader of Lenin's Selected Works.
The question is: will that person allow this newspaper to exist?"
The problem is serious, it is inevitable and must be faced.
Andrei smiled and said, "Boss, he has agreed." There are compromises everywhere in this world, and the newspaper compromises with him, and the newspaper will not stick a knife in him every day, and he cannot close the newspaper office with a single order. ”
"Very good!"
As he spoke, he sorted out the card and medal boxes on the table, put them back in the lockbox, and pushed them towards Andre.
"Pravda would not be complete without Lenin's medal, and it should be taken back to Moscow.
But don't let anyone know that I'm the real boss of the newspaper, at least for the next seven or eight years.
If you lack funds, you told me that the boss was so poor that he only had money left. ”
Excited, to this Zhang Nandu "oh" sound, "The boss of Pravda, now my TV stations and newspapers are more than a hairy one!"
Money, count it as a ball!"
Well, those who have carefully read the four volumes of "Lenin's Selected Works" have such a mental thinking, compared with "Pravda", the huge "United Television Network" is scum in Zhang Nan's eyes.
The boss is happy, and Andre is relieved.
He took back the box and put it aside, took out a satellite phone and broadcast a number, and said a lot in Chinese after connecting, Zhang Nan heard that the person on the other end of the phone should be his captain.
This is so that Zhang Nan can understand, and his only knowledge of the Russian language is "Hello, comrade, plus a sentence: I love you, young and beautiful girl." ”
After hanging up the phone, Andre said to Zhang Nan: "The captain said that he would make good use of the boss's money and buy as many industries as possible that are the most powerful and can best adapt to the new era."
The main thing is manufacturing and mining, the Russians manage, the Russians come forward, and in a few years the boss of your industrial empire will add a large chunk of Russia.
Also, he thanked you for your support of Pravda and wanted to give you two gifts. ”
When Zhang Nan heard this, he asked with a smile, "What gift?"
Everyone's got a gift.
"You like to collect, the captain wants to give you a Soviet flag, I lowered it from the Kremlin dome with the captain on the night of the 25th, boss, you should have seen it on TV. ”
Well, Zhang Nan always remembered that shot: in a not-so-bright light in the dark night sky, two workers climbed out of the big dome from a movable cover, lowered the sickle, axe and hammer star flag, and then folded it away and then drilled into the movable cover.
Depressed, that kind of atmosphere can be felt in front of the TV, inexplicably depressing!
Then two more people got out of the cover and raised the tricolor Russian flag.
Now suddenly it became clear one thing: why didn't the two who lowered the flag raise that Russian flag!
This detail seems to have been overlooked by people all over the world, and the reason is actually here!
Andrei and his captain don't know how to become the last flag-lowering and flag protectors, but they will never be the flag-raisers of the Russian flag!
People wanted to give the Soviet flag to themselves, but Zhang Nan said: "No, Andrey, that flag should not belong to me, I can't accept this." ”
"Boss, the captain said that the USSR would not return. ”
It will no longer be able to float above the Kremlin's dome, and the captain of the Red Devil knows it in his heart.
Zhang Nan still shook his head, "Let your captain keep it, it shouldn't be me, it should be under the protection of a Soviet."
That's it, no more talk. ”
Zhang Nan's habit, when he says "That's it", is the final decision, and there is no need to change it.
Seeing Zhang Nan's resolute attitude, Andre no longer insisted, so he said: "The second thing is actually not called a gift, but actually to help some people introduce some jobs and see if they can come to the boss of your company." ”
Introducing a job?
It's kind of interesting.
"Who is it?"
"Some of the women who were trained by the KGB from the 80s ..."
Seeing that Zhang Nan's face was different, Andre sped up his speech and said: "It's not the legendary swallow outside, it's a bodyguard, a specially trained female bodyguard."
It is specially allocated to the family members of some central leaders, as well as bodyguards to receive female high-level foreign guests, and two batches are assessed by the captain.
Now that the leaders have been stripped of their privileges by Russia, and some of them are unwilling to work for Russia, the captain told me about it.
Boss, so to speak, we Red Devils not only have muscles, but also flexible brains.
Those women..."
Pointing to his head, "In Huaxia dialect, there is only one tendon left that has been trained, and there are really not many livelihood skills except for protecting people."
If you only talk about the skills of bodyguards, they should be more professional than our red devils. ”
Zhang Nan told the story of "swallows" by hearsay, but he didn't dare to put a group of swallows around him, and the house was uneasy, regardless of it, he was afraid that those "swallows" would eat him alive!
