Chapter 220: Negotiations in Progress (Part II)

In peacetime, in order to prevent these generals from forming cliques for personal gain, the Central Committee of the CPSU stipulated that the top military commanders of all theaters were not allowed to leave their defense zones without reason. That's why Alice asked.

Well, few of these guys are willing to leave their nests, and now the outside world is not very peaceful, so it's safer to squat in their nests.

"No," Govorov thought for a moment with a frown, and nodded affirmatively, "I'm sure no." ”

"That's right," Alice frowned and muttered to herself, "It would be nice if everyone could sit down together and discuss this matter, it would be very time-consuming to run from military region to military region." ”

"Can you get Comrade Kryuchkov to think of a way?" Govorov hesitated, but still said his proposal, "If Comrade Kryuchkov takes the lead in organizing a special meeting of the commanders of military districts by the Ministry of Defense, maybe these guys will come." "I don't have any confidence in saying this, when this war is in chaos, that guy is willing to leave his safe nest and get into someone else's pocket? What should I do if I can't get out if I get in? Who knows if it's a trap or not?

With the passage of the August 19 coup, not only did the Soviet Central Committee's ability to rule and govern the following republics drop to almost zero, but even the ability to rule over the commanders of various military regions was also greatly reduced. When the war is in chaos, it is better to say that everything else is fake, and it is better to use the gun in your hand at the critical moment. Attending a meeting of the Ministry of Defense? It is estimated that more than two-thirds of the commanders of all military regions will be unable to attend the meeting if they are on sick leave, and the remaining one-third will definitely be able to find all kinds of bizarre and absurd reasons for not attending the meeting.

Who would leave their nest and put their safety in the hands of someone else? The more these guys are, the more afraid they are of death, and just now Govorov proved this with his own practical actions.

Fuck, you can't come, then I'll go by myself! Listening to the conversation between the two sides that Singh translated to him, Zhang Lan pondered for a while, in fact, it is not very far to go, and there is no need to take a train to get there, right?

"That's it." Zhang Lan whispered to Singh, "You ask Alice to ask him, can he first say hello to the commanders of the various military regions we pass through, and then send a transport plane to send us over?" We don't know those guys well, though. But Govorov is still more familiar with them, right? He said hello to the old men, and I don't think we would have a problem meeting with them. If you can, do it. From Moscow to the Pacific Fleet, albeit far, it will be much faster if there are aircraft. ”

"Good way," Singh's eyes lit up. hurriedly conveyed Zhang Lan's thoughts to Alice.

After listening to Singh's words, Alice nodded, turned her head and asked Govorov, "General, are you familiar with the commanders of several other military districts?" ”

"It's okay, they're all old guys who have been fighting together for decades, and if they don't know each other, they can't be more familiar," Govorov nodded, a little curious about what Singh and Alice had just said.

"In that case, can you please ask Your Excellency the General to say hello to these generals. And then send a plane to send us over? Alice asked, "It may be a good solution for us to go and talk to the commanders of the various military districts in person." ”

"That's right," Govorov thought for a moment, feeling that this was not a good idea, it only took a few days to take a plane to visit all the military districts, and the time was basically spent on visits, and very little time was spent on the road, nodding, "I'll try." But I don't think there's a problem. ”

"Wait a minute," Govorov said, standing up, "I'm going to call these old friends." ”

"General, please." Alice nodded.

Govorov smiled apologetically at the others, turned and entered a nearby room.

I guess that room is a confidential call room. Zhang Lan pondered to herself, because no sound came out at all. It is not at all surprising that such a level as Govorov is equipped with a special confidential call room.

After a while, Govorov finally came out of the secret call room.

"No problem," Govorov nodded to Alice and the others with a happy expression, "I promise you will receive the best hospitality from the generals when you arrive." "I asked." When are you going to pass? ”

"The day after tomorrow," Alice and the others looked at each other, "tomorrow we will prepare, and the day after tomorrow we will leave." Is it too late for the general's side? ”

"We, the Soviet Air Force, are guaranteed to be ready to take off at any time," Govorov was very proud of, "and I can arrange for a few people to take off at any time, if they need it." ”

"Then thank you, General," Alice said, standing up, looking sorry, "Oh, I didn't notice that the time passed so quickly, not only did it already be eleven o'clock, it was too late, we should go back early, it would be our sin to disturb the General's rest." ”

"Don't bother," he said without disturbing, but Govorov had already stood up, this was a standard send-off action, "It's a little dark on the road, you guys should drive slowly on the road, and come to me more often when you have time." ”

The old man had to wait for Alice and the others to take a good look at the check for half a million dollars.

More visitors? Zhang Lan scoffed, thinking that she would send you more money, right?

Two flowers bloomed, one for each branch, and when Zhang Lan had a headache for transportation in the Soviet Union, Zhang Zongjun in China was also starting to jump up and down.

"Dude, I have to say, you can really toss." Director Liu smiled bitterly and looked at Zhang Zongjun who was sitting opposite him, "Your company's movement is big enough, aren't motorcycles produced well, others don't know, but I know how much money you make in a year!" Good guys, billions of dollars! When the data came out, I was taken aback, and I thought that I had been dazzled by looking at a zero and counting it several times before I dared to be sure that it was true. Why is it that all of a sudden, all of a sudden, you have to start working on cars now? ”

"I didn't expect it either, who would have thought that Alice would suddenly want to get a car?" Zhang Zongjun also smiled bitterly, and pointed to the north as he spoke, "But now is also a good opportunity, not only us, it is estimated that our country's movements over there are not small, right?" If it weren't for such an opportunity, I guess it would be a few years before I got a car. ”

"I'm in charge of the economy, and I don't know very well about those things, but I think it's probably so." Director Liu snorted. Apparently, the facts are not as unclear as he claims. Hearing Zhang Zongjun's words, Director Liu finally suddenly realized, "It turns out that you also have the idea of fighting the north, how about it." How's it going? ”

"I don't know very well," Zhang Zongjun looked depressed, "In fact, this matter was planned as early as 89 years, but it wasn't until a few days ago that Alice and that kid in our family started planning, but they didn't tell me until a few days ago." You say I don't want to be aggrieved? Saying that, Zhang Zongjun began to complain to Director Liu, "I didn't expect to live a lifetime and end up being deceived by my son and daughter, do you think I'm depressed or not?" ”

"Why didn't I see that you were depressed, but found that you were very proud?" Director Liu teased, "I guess you have already blossomed in your heart, right?" By the way, which car factory are you eyeing and how much do you plan to invest? First of all, this is completely my personal curiosity, and it has nothing to do with the country's final decision on you. ”

"It is said that there are two of them, the Gorky Automobile Plant and the Stalin Automobile Plant, and I really don't know how much to invest. But I heard Alice say that they plan to take everything down in the Soviet Union for 200 million dollars," he tilted his head and thought, "As for the domestic aspect, I don't know exactly how much it will cost, except for the land and the cost of factory construction, there is not much else to spend money, and these don't cost much." I don't think I can use 500 million yuan more, right? Now it depends on the country's attitude towards us. ”

Zhang Zongjun had never been to the Soviet Union, and since he started school, the country's introduction to the Soviet Union was mostly negative, so he naturally had no impression of the two largest automobile factories in the Soviet Union, and he did not know how large the scale of these two automobile factories was, so he was quite indifferent.

"Good fellows. It's actually these two car factories, your appetite is really big enough, and you're not afraid of choking? Director Liu gasped, Zhang Zongjun didn't know. Director Liu is very clear about these two automobile factories, which are the boss and second boss of the Soviet automobile industry, which is much more bullish than the status of the domestic FAW and the second automobile.

Hearing Zhang Zongjun say nonchalantly that the domestic investment will not exceed 500 million at most, Director Liu was choked by Zhang Zongjun's words and rolled his eyes: 500 million, you had five cabbages at that time, and you said that you would take it out?

"Investing so much? Aren't you afraid that the capital chain will be broken, which will cause your turnover to be ineffective? Director Liu asked curiously.

"Have you forgotten that we had $2 billion in money coming in a year ago?" Zhang Zongjun was curious. "Isn't that much money enough? Basically, we don't have to use a dime of our company last year. ”

"I really forgot," Director Liu patted his head, annoyed by his forgetfulness: Alice Motorcycle Company's net profit last year was nearly 6 billion, and in the first three quarters of this year, it earned as much as last year's net profit, and Zhang Zongjun, who has deep pockets, naturally dared to say such a thing, not to mention that Alice Motorcycle Company took the opportunity to make a big profit in the international crude oil futures market during the Gulf War last year. "In other words, your company is not worried about money, technology, or equipment, but is worried about whether the state can give you policies and grant you land, right?"

"That's pretty much it!" Zhang Zongjun nodded.

"This matter is too much to do, and it can be said that it is a big project related to the national economy and people's livelihood," Director Liu stopped laughing, "This matter needs to be discussed at a special meeting of the State Council before it can be decided, and it cannot be decided in a day or two." And the most important point is that there has never been a precedent for this kind of thing before, and no one dares to say what will happen to this matter in the end, and no one can bear this responsibility if something goes wrong in the end. ”

Saying that, he sighed, and patted Zhang Zongjun's shoulder heavily, "Brother, just the two of us today, brother, I will give you a bottom-up, and say something from my heart, I won't admit it when I go out: Your matter is very difficult, very big!" "Unless you can move the one at the top and let him support you." But you also know that basically you don't have this opportunity to meet him. ”

"As for the following," Director Liu sighed, and there was a bit of loneliness in his tone, "The resistance to reform is still very great!" ”

"So you can't do it?" After listening to Director Liu's words, Zhang Zongjun, who was originally full of confidence, was depressed for a while, could it be that he hadn't started to do anything, and things were going to go wrong?

"It's not that there is no hope at all, the key is that things are man-made." Director Liu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You also know the situation in our country, although some things seem difficult, but it is difficult to say, and it is actually very simple to say that it is simple. ”

"The American Alice Group has organized a negotiation team, and it is estimated that they will arrive tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Hearing Director Liu say this, Zhang Zongjun was a little excited, but he was still a little disappointed that he would still die, "Is there only a thirty percent certainty?" ”

"Thirty percent is less?" Director Liu couldn't laugh or cry, "You must know that at the beginning of Shanghai Volkswagen, we thought that we couldn't even grasp 20%, but now you look at the situation of Shanghai Volkswagen?" You should hurry up and prepare your automobile company's project analysis report, and I will submit this matter to the State Council to convene a special meeting to consider this matter.
