Zhang Xingming said: "It's too early to think about this, and now, living is something that needs to be carefully considered." ”

Vladimir said: "You got what you wanted, will you ship it back to China?"

Zhang Xingming shook his head and said, "No, I said it, I don't want to get involved in politics, it's too troublesome." People are good at things and things they are not good at, and politics is what I am not good at.

Everything will take root here, and this will be a new industrial center in the future, and I am confident in this. Of course, if some technical countries need it, I will not refuse, let them come and study it themselves. After all, who doesn't want their motherland to be strong and prosperous? Aren't you different?"

Vladimir smiled, touched his calf and said, "I still want to thank you for your help this time, so that my comrades-in-arms can come back alive." ”

Zhang Xingming said: "Our generation, or the generation of our country, has received Marxist and Leninist ideological education since childhood, and our classrooms are hung with large pictures of Lenin and Comrade Steel, and we call you the big brother of Soviet Russia, and our extracurricular reading materials are how steel is made, it is Paul Kochakin, and the songs we sing are the evenings outside Moske, which are birch forests.

The building I grew up in was called a Soviet-style I-building, and the master in our factory didn't know a few words, but he was fluent in Russian. The movie we watched was Walter's defense of Sarajevo, the defense of Moske. On the square of the Mukden railway station stood the tanks of the Red Army. Valodya, the Chinese trust Soviet Russia very much, and have always regarded Soviet Russia as a brother. You are not polite between brothers. ”

Vladimir laughed, a real smile. He asked, "I wonder if your subordinates would know about me, and it is not surprising that we were injured and decisively abandoned the mission, can I understand that you have arrangements for this?"

Zhang Xingming nodded and said, "When they went to East Germany for activities, I told their leaders about this. I know you're over there, and it's not a secret to me. I said, if you meet a Russian named Vladimir or Valodya there, don't clash with him, and if he has a problem, help him. ”

Vladimir asked: "Why?"

Zhang Xingming said: "No matter when, in front of the bald eagle, we will be comrades-in-arms, we were and will be in the future, this cannot be changed." Do you need any reason to help a friend? You will get to know my Valodya in the future, don't apply what you're good at to me, never. ”

"Soviet Russia needs money, it needs light industrial products and technology, it needs factories to get up and running," Vladimir said. ”

Zhang Xingming said: "Anything is possible. Valoja, but it will take time, and we will have to wait for the water to clear up. If, if you can stand in that position, the Eastern European Development Bank can cooperate with you in all aspects, and everything that China can provide will continue to be transported by rail, this is my promise to you.

If you can't reach this level, then it depends on the specific conditions of the specific thing. To be honest, I am deeply suspicious of all these people in office right now. Russia will face a catastrophe, it will lose its blood and muscles, and what role will these people play in this? ”

Vladimir asked, "So, what do you need?" or rather, what do you want?"

Zhang Xingming smiled and said: "If I talk about friendship, you will definitely scold me in your heart." If that day happens, I would like to ask you to be kind to China. To be honest with you, in the civilian field, the technology in my hands is no worse than that of Bald Eagle, and it will definitely surpass you. I haven't touched on the military technology, China is relatively backward and may need your help. Let's benefit each other, we can exchange. ”

Vladimir asked: "You didn't do military work?"

Zhang Xingming said: "Will the systems of our two countries allow a private person to enter this area? However, it cannot be said that there is no such thing as none. I just bought the whole of Silkida, you know, Silkkida has an arsenal in Brno. Why don't we work together to make a decent arsenal? ”

Vladimir looked down and thought, Zhang Xingming said: "No matter how powerful a person is, there are times when he has to compromise, and there are times when he has no choice but to do so, so do you think it would be a good idea to have a very powerful partner with in-depth cooperation abroad?

Vladimir touched his chin and tilted his head to look at Zhang Xingming, who pointed to his nose: "I, the successor of socialism, a staunch Bolshevik, a generalized nationalist, a capitalist with huge dollar assets. Most importantly, I am Chinese. ”

Vladimir lowered his eyes and whispered: "Things between countries are not so simple. ”

Zhang Xingming said: "But you can't deny that if there is only one choice, China and Maoist Russia will inevitably stand together, because there is no other choice, unless, Maoist Russia chooses to give in, like Eastern European countries have succumbed to Soviet Russia in recent years." ”

Vladimir said: "If there is a conflict between us and China in the future, what will you choose?"

Zhang Xingming said: "China and Bald Eagle are always in contradiction, don't I do the industry on Bald Eagle's side? You have to understand, first of all, I am a businessman. It is inevitable that some minor problems will arise between countries, and when you see friction between two countries, you will expel and shut down each other's merchant industries? Merchants are bridges, and where in the world is there a market that does not need to be circulated?"

Vladimir said: "I mean, just in case, let's assume it. ”

Zhang Xingming said: "If it was a war, then I would choose to fight, shut down factories and buy officials to sabotage and plant bombs everywhere." ”

Vladimir smiled, shook his head, put the cigar in the ashtray, clapped his hands lightly and said: "Soviet Russia is fighting now." The war in the future will no longer be the artillery of the planes, but the war of money. ”

Zhang Xingming said: "It is the war between Asia and the Americas, and perhaps Europe, and the whole of Europe is already prostrate at the feet of the bald eagle. ”

Vladimir looked up at the chandelier, his hands kept clenching his fists and opening his fists, and the already textured facial lines were now more three-dimensional like knife sharpening.

The room was silent, except for the faint sound of listening.

Zhang Xingming coughed lightly to break the silence and asked, "Valojia, do you really want to enter politics?"

Vladimir still looked at the chandelier and nodded imperceptibly.

Zhang Xingming said: "Are you going back to Moske or Leningrad this time?"

Vladimir said: "The order is for me to return to Leningrad." ”
