Chapter 245 Invest in advance
Jiang Xinwei put down the telegram in his hand, picked up the telephone and dialed a number, and soon there was a busy tone on the phone.
He thought for a moment, then dialed another number. Soon an English-speaking voice came from inside. Jiang Xinwei immediately asked in English, "Frankl, are you familiar with the officials of your country's embassy in our country?"
Frankl asked puzzledly, "Jiang, what are you looking for our embassy for?"
Jiang Xinxu said: "I have something to look for your sister Mayoni now, and now there are some problems in the Soviet Union, and I just received a telegram from her. ”
Frankl was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Jiang, are my sisters okay?"
Jiang Xinwei deliberately said lightly: "It's okay! It's that the situation in the Soviet Union is a little chaotic now." Their president has now been replaced because of illness, as if the vice president had been sworn in. ”
When Frankl heard that his sister was fine, he was much more relieved and said, "The president of the Soviet Union has changed? What does this have to do with my sister?...... I'm familiar with the people at the embassy, what do you want them to do for you?"
Jiang Xinxu said: "It's very simple, just let them try to inform your sister and tell her not to worry, the situation will stabilize soon, and the work of our bank will just go with the flow." ”
Frankl asked, "The situation will really stabilize soon, and there is really nothing dangerous for them?...... If so, then you still need to contact her through diplomatic channels? Is it that you can't get through to her phone?...... Ah, was there a coup d'état in the Soviet Union?"
Obviously, he is not a fool, and he can see at once that there is a problem with zài in it.
"It can be said that it is a coup d'état. However, the specific situation ......," Jiang Xinwei said in a positive and confident tone, "There are indeed some problems with the telephone line now, but please rest assured, there is definitely no danger." However, for her own safety, she and her colleagues are asked not to go out casually, and to keep as little cash as possible at the bank counter. …… , maybe three or five days...... Ten days at most, it's fine. ”
In fact, this influential coup d'état lasted only three days, and it ended with the reinstatement of the president, but Jiang Xinwei didn't want to be regarded as a god by others, so he deliberately said a little longer, and said that he was very uncertain.
Frankl was surprised and said: "How is it possible, how can a coup d'état involving the president be ended in just 10 days? Do you think that the Soviet Union is a small island country in the Pacific Ocean, with a combined population of less than 10,000 people? They have a population of hundreds of millions, and once chaos breaks out, it will be chaos! Even if an island country of 10,000 people makes a fuss, it will be stable in more than 10 days, right?"
Jiang Xinwei, who knew the result of this coup d'état, smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I promise that it will end in less than ten days." Now the USSR has been messed up by this new-thinking president, the foundations have been hollowed out by him, and the collapse of the edifice is inevitable. Those few people who have no courage want to straighten this edifice and prevent it from collapsing, daydreaming. …… , since everyone knows that they are going to fall, there will be no chaos, and the vast majority of Soviets will go with the flow. ”
Frankl is obviously not an ordinary person, let alone a fool, plus he has been impressed by Jiang Xinwei's strong self-confidence, and he has long been full of trust in Jiang Xinwei, he said that his sister is okay and thinks that it is really fine, as for what Jiang Xinwei said about the collapse of the building, he didn't expect that the Soviet Union fell entirely, thinking that it was just the current Soviet president who stepped down.
If it were only the president who stepped down, the head of state of the Soviet Union would not have been replaced, and there should be no major incident.
After listening to Jiang Xinwei's words, Frankl was finally relieved, and then he showed the face of a businessman and asked with a smile: "Jiang, if this is the case, is it possible for us to reap more benefits from the Soviet Union? Is it possible to take advantage of this chaotic opportunity to make some preparations? Is it what your country calls fishing in troubled waters?"
He had invested millions of dollars in Soviet banks, and if he could make some good money this time, if he could make more money for the banks, wouldn't he be able to make more profits?
Jiang Xinwei was also stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said: "It is said that those of us who do business should try not to get involved in politics, but this time is indeed a good opportunity. So let's ask your sister to contact the President of Russia, if possible, to give him some support as much as she can, or to reassure the population in the bank, claiming that our bank is confident in the future of the USSR and is open as usual to reassure all customers. ”
Frankl was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Isn't it now that the president of the Soviet Union has changed? Why do you want my sister to go to the president of Russia? The president of a union republic has so much influence? Should he find this sworn vice president." ”
Jiang Xinwei smiled: "You are only busy with business, and you don't know anything about the situation in the Soviet Union. I can tell you that the current Russian president has a lot of power, and this guy is a very favorite leader of Western countries, and he is favored by countless people with a great future,...... , forget it, I can't say anything more, you think about it, since he is the president of Russia, he must have control over Moscow, in case the situation really becomes messy, asking him for help can at least prevent gangsters from taking the opportunity to rob the bank, right?"
Frankl hurriedly said: "Just now you said that the situation in the Soviet Union would quickly settle down, but the president of the Soviet Union changed, how can you say that someone will rob the bank?"
Jiang Xinwei said with a smile: "I'm making an analogy, it's 10,000 steps back, even if the situation is chaotic, the president of the Russian republic can help us a little, and there is no harm in looking for him." ”
Frankl also said: "But once he is a member of one of the two forces, we will choose a side so quickly, what if his opponent takes us acutely? The Soviet people hate Westerners, and those ordinary people will definitely fight against those who have defected to Western countries, and perhaps this Russian president named Ye Liqin has already been arrested by the common people." ”
Jiang Xinwei didn't want to talk too much to this foreigner, so he had to say in a very positive tone: "Don't worry, I promise that nothing will happen to him, and he will live well now." Our bank has only good and no harm in following him!"
When Frankl heard this, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay. I'll pass on your words to my sister. ”
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xinwei smiled: This Ye Liqin will be arrested by the common people? What people are best at is agitating the common people. Those ordinary people were obviously fooled by him to be poor and white, and a little savings were fooled into waste paper, but they still liked him and regarded him as a national hero of Russia.
In this coup d'état, he was the ultimate beneficiary, whether it was the vice president of the Soviet Union who carried out the coup d'état, or the president of the Soviet Union, who was temporarily replaced in office, they were all losers. Immediately after the coup, Yelitchin, the president of the Russian republic, issued a statement claiming that the replacement was illegal and incited thousands of ordinary people to take to the streets in protest.
Under the combined pressure of the domestic population and Western countries, the putschists abandoned the operation and allowed Ye Liqin to welcome back the president from abroad. The returning president naturally regarded Yeliqin as the greatest contributor to the "pacification conspiracy", and he claimed to the outside world that he and Yeliqin would work together harmoniously and would bring the Soviet Union to the light.
It is a pity that the president miscalculated the shape shì, and Yeltsin had no intention of establishing a position with him, the Soviet gravedigger. Just two days later, on August 24, the president, who had dug down the Soviet edifice with his own hands, announced that he was surrendering power. Then the Soviet Union began to fall apart, and one after another the former Soviet republics began to declare independence, and the Soviet Union soon ceased to exist.
Ye Liqin also rose with the wind and water, step by step to the peak of power, and directly became the president of Russia, with the largest territory, the most resources, and the strongest military power in the world, and became a world-class leader with a lot of power.
After he became the president of Russia (not the previous president of the Russian republics), under the guidance of Western political and economic circles, he began the famous economic shock therapy, and Russia itself was dying, and the wealth accumulated by the Soviet Union for decades was handed over to others, so that Western bankers and giant businessmen were full of stomach and happy.
In particular, the people headed by Speaker Khasbulatov and Vice President Rudskoi are very opposed to Yelichin's economic reforms, and the two sides attack each other and go their own way.
Two years later, in 1993, the struggle between the two sides intensified: one side announced the dismissal of Rudskoi as vice-president and the dissolution of parliament, while the other announced the suspension of Yeltsin's presidency and the appointment of Rudskoi as acting president.
In the face of the confrontation between the two sides, Ye Liqin was much more decisive than those who staged the coup d'état in 1991: on the one hand, he sent military and police to surround the parliament building, cut off the parliament from telephone contact with the outside world, and cut off the power and water supply to the parliament building. On the other hand, Ye Liqin also organized ordinary people to protest in the streets, and commanded tanks to shell the parliament building, sweeping down all those who opposed him.
The end result was that Yeliqin sat firmly in the presidency, and Russia continued to move forward under his baton. Enterprises are sold cheaply, resources are sold cheaply, resources are sold cheaply, and scientific and technological achievements are sold cheaply...... This situation did not completely change until Lisboa became president, and some of the giant businessmen who bought the Russian oil fields at a low price were even cleaned up by this iron-fisted president, and the oil fields were taken back, which made several happy Western bosses who woke up laughing from their dreams dumbfounded......
The honeymoon period between Russia and the West under the leadership of Ye Liqin also ended with Lisboa's iron-fisted methods. In the 21st century, Russia and Western countries have become enemies, and they have scolded each other and imposed sanctions on each other because of the affairs in Ukraine.
