Chairman of the KGB, one of the Soviet hardliners who opposed Gorbachev.
After the secretary opened the door and walked into his office, Hu Wenhai observed this spy leader with the temperament of some university professors curiously and carefully.
Saying that the head of the spy is inevitably a bit insulting, Hu Wenhai thought about it, and felt that it was better to change it to the gatekeeper of national security.
After all, the work he is engaged in may have to do a lot of cruel things. Judging by the enemies of the Soviet Union, he, of course, was the head of the secret service, the most evil one. But judging by the people he protects, he's a hero.
The reason why the KGB is the source of crime and the CIA is the messenger of justice is purely because the Western countries have the media channels and the United States has won the Cold War.
In the post-Cold War era, the voices of anyone and any country are only the dark side of the KGB.
But the CIA and the KGB, two old rivals, have committed fewer crimes?
Vladimir Kryuchkov may not be very capable, but he at least fought to defend his homeland, and that is enough.
"This is Mr. Hu Wenhai from China, welcome!"
Vladimir Kryuchkov got up from behind the desk, walked over to the couch of the receptionist, and stretched out his hand to invite Hu Wenhai to sit down.
"I have long heard that China has produced the richest man in the world, and he is so young, it is really a magical country!"
"Chairman Vladimir, I've also heard of it for a long time. β
"Haha, I'm afraid it's not a good reputation. β
Vladimir laughed and muttered: "Sino-Soviet relations are now changing to normalization, Mr. Hu came to the Soviet Union, and the Chinese side specifically asked the Soviet Central Committee to endorse your security, which shows that you are really very valued in China!"
"Probably because I'm young, I don't know what kind of trouble I'm going to cause. Hu Wenhai took the water cup handed over by the other party with both hands, and the temperature was just right.
"You Hu Wenhai are used to getting into trouble, this is not a secret in international intelligence organizations. Truth be told, we KGB can put a filing cabinet on your file. It is said that the CIA's intelligence about you can fill a room! Last year, we really made a plan to get the secret of manipulating the US stock market from your mouth! But all our efforts have been stopped by your secret front personnel, and the Chinese counterparts are still very terrible in your country!"
Hu Wenhai was stunned for a moment, a little surprised by Vladimir's honesty, and even more heartache for those who paid silently in places they didn't know.
"This, our personnelβ" Hu Wenhai asked with concern, "Are there any casualties?"
Vladimir waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there are no casualties." If there is a human life, the matter will not be over. β
"Whew, that's good. Hu Wenhai breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he really hadn't paid attention to it when he was in China, thinking that he would be safe in China.
But in fact, his false sense of security is actually a precious gift that many people have paid silently.
Hu Wenhai thought that after returning to China this time, he should really meet these people. Some people say that it is the duty of the police to catch thieves and soldiers to go to the battlefield, but this kind of work, just doing their duty is enough to be admired!
Vladimir took a document from the table, opened it and said, "I have a few things here, and I would like to ask Mr. Hu." Of course, it is completely voluntary and will not have any impact on our cooperation. β
Hu Wenhai has long known that this is the way it should be, and his experience is so legendary that any intelligence agency would probably be interested in some of the things he knows.
This attitude of the KGB can be said to be the best situation he expected.
"Let's talk about your first contact with the KGB, how much do you know about the American fourth-generation fighter?"
Hu Wenhai thought for a moment and said slowly: "I don't know much about the fourth-generation fighter of the United States. At present, there should be two proposals, one proposed by Lockheed and the other proposed by Northrop. It is not clear which one will land on the contract. But the request for bidding by the US side, I think Chairman Vladimir should already know about it. The main characteristics of the fourth-generation aircraft of the United States are super patrol and stealth, and the advantages of the avionics system are also very strong, and the ability to super-maneuver is also emphasized, which is the so-called 4S. β
"Since Mr. Hu can treat each other with sincerity, then I am not welcome. For the development of fourth-generation aircraft, our Soviet Union has its own ideas, but stealth is indeed negligent compared to the Americans. But after research, some of our scientists believe that stealth of fighters is still very difficult to do. Because stealth requires a wave-absorbing coating, but this coating is very easy to wear when the fighter is flying. Our scientists, it has never occurred to us how the Americans solved this problem......"
Hu Wenhai was stunned for a moment, and replied simply: "What's so difficult about this, won't you arrange a logistics staff who is specifically responsible for aircraft coating, and apply it when it falls?"
"Huh?"
Seeing Vladimir's stunned appearance, Hu Wenhai felt that it is likely that Soviet scientists really did not think of this solution?
Of course, this is not surprising. Because the United States and the Soviet Union had different ideas on the use of fighter planes, the Soviet Union was ready to fight a world war and a nuclear war at any time, and required aircraft to have small logistical requirements, easy maintenance, and preferably solid and durable, with excellent survivability.
Whether it is the MiG-29 or the Su-27, it is almost the same number.
But the American F22 is completely different from this kind of thinking, but takes a high-precision route.
One reason why the F22 is expensive to maintain is because of the high maintenance and preservation costs of the F22. Not only do you need a high-level hangar such as constant temperature and humidity, but also a special person to check the absorbing coating of the aircraft, and respray it at any time for the place where the aircraft has lost its absorption ability in flight.
The bulk of the F22 maintenance cost is mainly the cost of spraying the absorbing coating.
With such a solution to the "extravagance of imperialism", it is no wonder that Soviet scientists could not turn their heads.
"Well, I'll relay this to our scientists. Vladimir nodded, and began to write a line on the paper.
"Next question, about the F-14 ......"
"I'm sorry. Hu Wenhai did not wait for Vladimir to ask a question, and immediately interrupted him: "I will not answer a question about China, even if the F-14 is an American plane." β
"Oh, this is our negligence. Vladimir nodded, skipping the question.
Of course, Hu Wenhai will not expose why such a thing as negligence of the chairman of the KGB happened.
......
Vladimir's questions then focused mainly on the Americans, occasionally asking about Britain and Japan. As for the news about China, there is no more than that.
Hu Wenhai frankly answered all the questions he could answer, such as Motorola and DuPont themselves are arms suppliers to the United States, and Vladimir's problems are basically revolving between these two companies.
Japan's problems were mainly focused on the development of electronic technology, and the Soviet Union also seemed to have some interest in integrated circuits. In particular, Hu Wenhai himself runs a wafer factory, so some of the questions he asks are very professional.
The Q&A work went on for at least an hour and a half, and Vladimir closed the folder with a little satisfaction.
He put the folder back on his desk, and then sat down across from Hu Wenhai.
After Vladimir sat down, he actually looked at Korolev first, nodded and said: "Oh, I remember you, an agent of the Ukrainian KGB, whose name is Korolev Jovovich, right?"
After an hour and a half of talking, Korolev's spirit also relaxed a lot, and he immediately straightened up and said: "Yes, Comrade Chairman. β
"It's good, relax, don't be nervous. I am satisfied with your work, and I see the contribution of you and the Jovovich family to the economy of the USSR. β
Speaking of this, Vladimir took advantage of Korolev's words to look at Hu Wenhai and change the topic: "Speaking of which, it is a good thing that you are willing to invest in the Soviet Union and sell Chinese goods to the Soviet Union, which alleviates the problem of our shortage of light industrial products." β
"The economy of the Soviet Union has some problems right now, and I have noticed this. As international oil prices fell, the output of the livestock industry fell seriously, and there was no capital to import feed grains. What is commendable is that the current Sino-Soviet trade is neither gold nor oil, and China and the Soviet Union take what they need, and this is what Western countries call a win-win situation. β
"It stands to reason that I should support such a trade. But I still have something to say. β
Hu Wenhai knew that this was Vladimir's request for himself, and he was a little embarrassed to speak. If you don't take the initiative at this time, you really can't be considered a businessman.
Hu Wenhai nodded sincerely and simply: "Chairman Vladimir, you said, if there is anything I can do, I will do my best." β
"Some of our leaders in the USSR have some children abroad. Vladimir sighed: "Some of them are studying abroad, some are working abroad." As parents, our leaders certainly want them to have a better life. Because I'm abroad, I entrusted it to me. But for the KGB, it was already difficult for us to carry out our own work abroad......"
When Hu Wenhai heard Vladimir's words, his heart almost jumped for joy! What is this? This is a group of Soviet princes! If we can grasp the money bags of these people abroad, will they not be walking sideways in the Soviet Union?
But then again, these people may not really be the children of the leader, maybe they are more likely to be KGB agents?
Things need to be done, but they still have to be done smartly.
Hu Wenhai pondered, let's find a vest to put on to do this.
Thinking of this, Hu Wenhai nodded heavily: "Chairman Vladimir, if you can trust me, I can set up a fund for these people's lives abroad." In a completely legal way abroad, let them live a comfortable life. (To be continued.) )
