Chapter 557: Seduction
"Comrade Lyudmila Maslyukov, this is Comrade Hu Wenhai, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Xinke Group. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Korolev introduced Lyudmila to Hu Wenhai: "Comrade Lyudmila is the political commissar of the Vladimir Institute, and his father is the chairman of our USSR Planning Committee, Deputy Prime Minister Maslyukov, and there are some things that he wants to discuss with you. ”
"Hello Comrade Lyudmila. ”
Hu Wenhai smiled very kindly, and he couldn't tell at all that this was the person with the most personal wealth in the world.
In Lyudmila's view, she must be so popular because her father was Deputy Prime Minister Maslyukov.
Of course, this is a normal thing for him. Many people in the Soviet government would be very amiable to him, even a little flattering, but by no means because he was the political commissar of the Vladimir Institute.
"Hello Comrade Hu Wenhai, my father asked me to greet you on his behalf. ”
"Thank you Prime Minister Maslyukov for your greetings, please sit down, what do you have to drink?" Hu Wenhai personally went to the bar to inquire, poured a glass of St. Petersburg Liviz vodka for Lyudmila, and handed it to him.
Lyudmila looked a little flattered and took the wine glass from Hu Wenhai's hand. He sniffed the smell first, and then drank the wine from the glass in a gulp.
Lyudmila took a sip of wine in admiration and said with satisfaction: "The top Liviz vodka, I haven't drunk it for a long time." ”
"If Comrade Lyudmila likes it, I'll have someone pack a box for you to take away in a while. Hu Wenhai smiled and said disapprehantly.
He himself is not a good drinker, let alone Maozi's blood vodka, and he is even more unaccustomed to drinking it. The wine in your hand was meant to be given away, and it is much more convenient to give a gift in Russia than in China. Gift-giving in China also needs to consider the other party's receptivity, and you must do what you like, and work hard to study the other party's hobbies and methods. But in Russia, if you don't know what to give, you can just give vodka.
For Hu Wenhai, who planned to "kill and kill" in the Soviet Union, vodka was basically a cannonball that opened the way. Like the St. Petersburg Liviz-class vodka, which is a sacred 152mm grenade, which can only be enjoyed by the most important targets.
Sure enough, when she heard a box of St. Petersburg Liviz vodka, Lyudmila's eyes lit up, and she almost forgot her purpose for the day.
Among the families of today's senior leaders of the Soviet Union, they belong to the stage of dying of fat and starving to death of thin. Those who dare to go to the big fishing are basically rich. And if you have a better tutor at home, you can get a decent job at most.
Apparently, Comrade Lyudmila belongs to the latter. Compared to the second generation of powerful people in those circles, he really doesn't have too many opportunities to use his privileges.
"That's not good, I can't accept such a valuable gift......"
"Comrade Lyudmila, are you looking down on me?" Hu Wenhai straightened his face and said pretending to be angry: "How can you think that a box of vodka is just a valuable gift for me? You misunderstood! For me, this is not a gift, it is the same as a good friend visiting my house and I bring you a glass of water to drink, so difficult that a glass of water in the Soviet Union is a gift?"
Hu Wenhai's righteous words made Lyudmila really powerless to refute, not to mention that it was a thought of St. Petersburg Liviz vodka!
"Well, well, thank you Comrade Hu Wenhai for your generosity. ”
"That's right, I hope we can be honest. What kind of relationship you Russians have, please get along with me as I do. We don't need to be polite to each other, but if your friends need anything, please feel free to ask. ”
Hu Wenhai simply sat down with Lyudmila, put his arm around his shoulder, and then poured him another glass of vodka: "Say, my friend, if you need my help, I will do my best to help you." ”
"My father, that is, Deputy Prime Minister Maslyukov. We have a request to be able to ask you to arrange for our family to live abroad, and we intend to live abroad for a period of time. ”
"Of course that's no problem!" Hu Wenhai nodded dryly, without the slightest hesitation on the surface, and asked in a heartfelt manner: "Where are you going to go to? London, Paris, New York? or, uh, I have a good suggestion-"
Hu Wenhai snapped his fingers and pointed to Korolev to a document book on the desk next to him: "Dear Korolev, please bring the document of the Hainan Resort." ”
With a look of "again", Korolev took the notebook from Hu Wenhai's desk and handed it to him.
Under Lyudmila's gaze, Hu Wenhai flipped through the booklet. The first thing that catches your eye is a beautiful picture of a white tropical sand beach as far as the eye can see.
It was only at the first glance that Lyudmila found that she could not take her eyes off.
"This is a resort specially built by our ST Group in Wuzhizhou, Hainan Province for important related personnel. Maybe Comrade Lyudmila doesn't know where Hainan is, but it doesn't matter, here is our full set of information. ”
Hu Wenhai opened the document, and there were photos that could be called art photos, where did the Soviets in this era see this?
The life of the Americans, who relied on the self-confidence of the Soviet system to smash to pieces, was nothing more than the level of the average middle class. At most, it's a two-story townhouse and a supermarket, a car with a radio and the California sun.
With the modern design with swimming pool and landscaped villas in the photos, Rolls-Royce luxury cars, beach loungers in front of the door and a seafood market by the pier – it's paradise.
"Hainan is a province of China, and the tropical climate means that there is no winter in the year. In addition to being particularly suitable for vacations, we have also invited professional international curriculum lecturers from Eton College and Wellington College in the UK to set up an exclusive international school of ST Group. With all due respect, Comrade Lyudmila would not have been able to enjoy such living conditions in London, Paris or New York. You don't think that MI5 and the FBI let the family of the Soviet Deputy Prime Minister live in their own country. ”
"And if you choose these hostile countries of the Soviet Union, it is inevitable that at a critical moment it will not become a weakness of Deputy Prime Minister Maslyukov attacked by political enemies. And we in China are still a socialist country after all, no matter what we say?"
Hu Wenhai saw that Lyudmila was obviously a little moved, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then quickly retracted, and then opened the content behind the document book.
"If Comrade Lyudmila doesn't like the tropical scenery of Wuzhizhou very much, and I don't know how he feels about the European-style Qingdao base......?
Lyudmila was pulled by Hu Wenhai in a daze, and just looked at the photos of the resort for nearly two hours. In his impression, this old and poor country has become such a beautiful place?
Whether it is Wuzhizhou with tropical climate, or Qingdao with four distinct seasons but infinite scenery, Beidaihe, a traditional Chinese summer resort, and the embroidery city that is growing rapidly, as well as the big port full of Russian style, all of them are deeply attracted to him.
Compared to China, which offers a good life, life in London, Paris, and New York is very bleak in Hu's description.
Official surveillance from hostile states, economic distress and traditional discrimination can severely reduce the happiness of living in these cities.
What's more, with Lyudmila's self-confidence, he doesn't feel that he can live a life above the middle class on his own in a foreign country. Because foreign countries do not recognize either Soviet academic qualifications or Soviet work history, and because the content of Lyudmila's work is bound to be subject to strict scrutiny and glass ceilings in Western countries. Compared to China, which is full of sincerity, life in Western countries is really not attractive.
"Howen Haidavarishi, we can talk about these things later. ”
Lyudmila relied on her "strong" self-control, and finally closed the document book in her hand: "Let's talk about serious things, my father came this time to get your help." ”
Hu Wenhai waved his hand disapprovingly, and said with a straight face: "Comrade Lyudmila, I must oppose your words. Please put your father's affairs aside, no matter how big the matter is, it seems to me that people must let themselves live first!"
"Actually, the importance of the metal ionizer you are working on to the next generation of PVD electromagnetic sputtering technology does not need me to analyze, right? But these studies could no longer be carried out in the Soviet Union, don't you realize it? Soon there will be problems not only with heating, but also with the deterioration of the financial situation in the USSR, even with the problems of wages. Not to mention the rest of the institute, even you may go hungry. ”
"If Comrade Lyudmila you are willing to come to China, I can support you and other researchers of the Vladimir Institute to continue research on plasma. As long as you are willing to share the contents of these studies with the ST Group, you can bring them back when you think the time is right to return to the Soviet Union! In this regard, I can sign a contract with the official institutions of the Soviet Union, and even guarantee it with China's diplomatic credibility!"
Hu Wenhai's words made Lyudmila deeply shocked.
In Hu Wenhai's body, he seemed to see the warmth of a great socialist family. What kind of spirit is this spirit of selflessly helping the Soviet Union to tide over the difficulties? What is the spirit of the Comintern!
