The Soviet Union completely collapsed, the only existence in the world that could contend with the United States disappeared, and the United States became the strongest superpower. In the process of the collapse and establishment of the Soviet Union, research and development in some scientific and engineering fields were invested at any cost, and a large number of world-class talents were cultivated, creating miracles that could not even be replicated by mankind decades later. Because...... The cost of many miracles is high, and even many countries are daunted and unwilling to invest.

In the process of the disintegration of the Soviet Union, some local forces in the former Soviet Union countries have begun to divide the wealth of the Soviet Union through various connections and means. For example, plants, machinery, resources, etc......

And the mainstream powers of the world have also begun to dig up the walls in the territory of the Soviet Union! Of course, only the top and most worthy people will be poached by the Western countries on their own initiative.

In fact, talent is the most valuable asset, for example, Japan and Germany were able to rise economically again after World War II. The main factor was the fact that before the war, basic education had been universalized and the basis for industrialization had been established. Even if the factory is blown up to ruins and many entrepreneurs go bankrupt, but there is a bunch of talents, then, as long as there is an opportunity, it can rise.

The United States has also tasted a lot of sweetness in the importance of talents, and once, a bunch of first-class scientists were Europeans, but the United States relied on World War I, World War II and other factors to attract turbulent European scientists to immigrate to the United States. For example, the theory and concrete realization of nuclear weapons mainly rely on the role of the immigration of top European scientists, and the training system of local talents in the United States is lackluster.

After World War II, the United States and Soviet troops occupied half of Germany successively, and the Soviet Union paid more attention to machines and drawings, and almost emptied the industrial materials worth moving in East Germany, because, compared with the German precision machines, the stupid black vinegar machines of the Soviet Union at that time were all garbage. Later, the development of East Germany was not as good as that of West Germany, to a large extent, because the Soviet Union was too powerful in looting machines and means of production in the 40~50s, and almost dismantled the production capacity of East Germany, so the development was more and more inferior to West Germany.

After World War II, the United States looted Germany, mainly in the areas of finance and scientific and technological talents. The financial side borrowed money to Germany for reconstruction, and there were troops stationed in the country, and they were not afraid of not repaying it. In addition, the United States can produce a large number of machines, and the labeling is not the same as Germany, so it may not be necessary to dismantle the machines to the United States, resulting in incompatible standards and duplicate construction out of thin air, so the United States searches for a large number of German technology patents and design drawings, and the key is talent!

Many of the weapons of the U.S. military during World War II were only reflected in production capacity, which was the resource and economic advantage of the United States, not that the weapons were better than those of the Axis powers. For example, Germany is stronger than the United States in many weapons. As a result, a large number of scientific research projects during the Third German Reich were transplanted to the United States on a large scale, and the talents used were still the talents of the Third Reich. After World War II, the biggest dividend of the United States, in addition to the real hegemony and re-ordering of the United States, was the search for top European scientists and scientific research teams to the United States, and these scientific and technological dividends were also the reason for the blowout in the post-war scientific and technological field of the United States.

So...... After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States naturally operated on a large scale in an attempt to poach the talents of the former Soviet Union! Unfortunately, the Soviet Union only disintegrated and split within itself, not was occupied. So...... The efficiency and intensity of the United States in poaching talent are far inferior to those after World War II. After World War II, the US military stationed troops in many parts of Europe, and directly sent troops to "invite" valuable people to cooperate with the work and continue research in the United States according to the list. But now, the United States cannot rely on the military to forcibly requisition Soviet scientists, but can only rely on money and treatment to attract.

Of course, the United States is only attracting a small number of top talents, the vast majority of the Soviet Union's grass-roots scientific and technological talents, the United States is not looking down on, this kind of low-end scientific research workers, the United States is not lacking, every year there are low-level scientific research workers from all over the world to go to the bottom, even lower than the cost of the Soviets.

However, top talents are irreplaceable, and those top talents with names and surnames can be regarded as national treasures in any country in the world.

Like what...... Kinchenko Valery is one such person.

Professor Kinchenko Valery has worked in the Antonov Design Bureau of Ukraine for more than 20 years, presided over and participated in the design and testing of "An-72/74/71", "An-26/30/32", "An-124", "An-225", "An-70", "An-140" and other aircraft, and has rich experience in aircraft life assessment, aircraft structure design and wind tunnel test testing.

Among them, the An-225 transport aircraft (Ukrainian: АнтоновАн-225 "Мр?я", English: Antonov An-225 "Mriya"), NATO code name "Cossack" (Cossack), is a super large military transport aircraft with an off-land weight of more than 600 tons, and until the collapse of the Soviet Union, the An-225 transport aircraft was the world's largest transport aircraft.

It was not until the 21st century that the United States developed a super-large transport aircraft that surpassed the An-225 transport aircraft.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States immediately found Kinchenko Valery and offered attractive conditions, including arranging an annual salary of several hundred thousand dollars in domestic scientific research institutions, and providing the whole family to immigrate to the United States, providing housing, welfare insurance, and a series of treatments. After that, according to the performance of the project, you can get more bonuses, and even earn millions of dollars!

However, Kinchenko Valery angrily drove the lobbyist away: "I would rather die than work in a hostile country that has been suppressing and trying to destroy my homeland in the past." My whole life has been dedicated to socialism, and even if the Soviet Union no longer exists, I will not work for the enemy! Get out, never again!"

His family did not understand that the conditions offered by the United States were too tempting, and the state had stopped paying them wages if they stayed in Russia. The relevant military research projects have not had a budget for a long time, and they continue to be maintained. Moreover, the Soviet Union has collapsed, and the homeland and ideals to which Kinchenko Valery was loyal are gone, and the goal of confronting the United States for the sake of the Soviet Union no longer exists. The whole of Russia and other member states have turned their backs on their ideals, why, is Kinchenko Valery still so stubborn?

And after Kinchenko Valery drove out the lobbyists of the American military-industrial complex, Lin Qi soon heard the news.

"Hello, Professor Kinchenko Valery, it's a pleasure to meet you. Lin Qi came to the door with a group of bodyguards, and he did not come empty-handed, but moved a ton of various daily necessities from Diana's supermarket, including wine, food, clothes, etc., each of which is very inexpensive, but it is very sought-after in Moscow now, because after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the depreciation of the ruble has been faster, and many people will lose their wealth and purchasing power at a faster rate.

Kinchenko Valery is clearly angry, but Lin Qi's name has been seen many times on the news two months ago. This person is Chinese, and China's socialist country makes Kinchenko Valery a little kind.

"Mr. Lin, you know, my belief is to achieve communism and eliminate classes and exploitation, and you are a capitalist...... "Kinchenko Valery said, "Originally, I had a lot of opinions about your China, but ...... Now that the Soviet Union already exists, I hope that your country will adhere to socialism. ”

"Yes! Your ideals are worthy of admiration!" Lin Qi said, "Although, no matter how you embellish me, I am still a capitalist. That's true, but I don't make capital appreciation and profit my only goal in life. Profit is only a tool to achieve the goal, and the other is ...... The collapse of the USSR illustrates pure socialism, which is not yet realistic. Our country, with a mixture of planned and market economies, although, in the eyes of idealism and pure dogmatism, our country is a traitor. But in fact, from the perspective of our country, we are just seeking truth from facts and figuring out a development path that can enhance economic strength and gradually improve people's living standards. As long as we never forget our original intention, even if we use other methods and systems to achieve our goals in the process, it does not mean that we do not pursue socialism!"
