Chapter 637: What Happened to the Former Soviets?

At the beginning of the year, Yeltsin and others came to the Kremlin to persuade Gorbachev to hold talks and ask him to hand over the supreme command of the armed forces, the "nuclear button" for launching 270,000 nuclear warheads, and the presidential palace of the Kremlin. ，/

In the presidential palace, Yeltsin looked at Gorbachev with a heavy face and said, "Your Excellency has understood the current situation, and since we have chosen the road to glorious democracy, it is necessary to make certain changes." ”

When Gorbachev heard this, he sneered and shouted at Yeltsin, "Does change mean the disappearance of the Soviet Union?" Is the superpower that we once could compete with the United States just broken down by you? ”

Yeltsin didn't seem to hear his roar, but replied lightly, "But in fact, they want to pursue their own path, and we should respect their choice." ”

"Respect their choice?" Gorbachev spread out his seat sadly, looked at Yeltsin coldly, and after a long time, he said, "What a high-sounding reason, all this is calculated by you====== well, I know that even if I don't want to hand over power, I'm afraid I can't, I can give you everything you want." ”

Yeltsin sighed deeply, looked at Gorbachev, and said, "Your choice will not be disappointed, I will lead Russia to prosperity and strength." ”

"I hope so," Mr. Gorbachev replied grimly.

Yeltsin thought for a moment and added, "In order to thank Your Excellency for your contribution to the country, I can promise you that after your resignation you will continue to enjoy the state dacha, cars, security personnel, and SSSS" Speaking of this, Yeltsin took out a check from his bag, "This is a thank you to you. ”

Gorbachev picked up the check, glanced at it, put it away, stood up dejectedly, and said loudly to the door, "Help me arrange for me to wait for something to be announced." ”

"Yes, Mr. President," a woman's voice came from outside the door.

On 5 January, Gorbachev held a farewell meeting with his staff, and after saying goodbye, he signed a final presidential decree: resign as supreme commander of the armed forces and transfer control of the armed forces and the "nuclear button" to Yeltsin.

At 5 p.m., Gorbachev delivered a speech to the nation and the world about his resignation from the presidency of the Soviet Union in front of the cameras in the presidential office, after which the Soviet flag with a sickle and axe was lowered over the Kremlin and replaced by the Russian white and red tricolor, and then the Supreme Soviet Union of the Soviet Union was dissolved, and the national parliaments replaced the mission of the Soviet parliament.

In the evening, Yeltsin came to the Moscow Hotel and saw Yeltsin and Lin Yu sitting opposite each other in the room of the ultimate controller of this series of events.

Yeltsin took out a document bag from his briefcase and handed it to Lin Yu, "Mr. Lin Yu, this is the property right of the Kremlin that you want." ”

Lin Yu took the document bag from his hand, patted it in his hand, and sighed secretly in his heart, a Kremlin representing the Soviet Union and Russia has finally arrived in his hands, and a Soviet force that can make Europe compete with the United States has finally arrived?

"Mr. Lin Yu," Yeltsin on the side looked at Lin Yu in deep thought and called softly, after Lin Yu came to his senses, he looked at him suspiciously, and only heard him say, "Now what I want to do has been done, you need to ensure the interests of Russia Now Russia is facing great difficulties, this year's financial and economic situation is not good, although privatization has been carried out, but the shock therapy proposed by Mr. Milor is difficult to be effective in a short period of time, so, I hope that the EU can greatly assist in the economy, and I can promise to guarantee your interests, And we are ready to support the EU internationally against the United States. ”

Lin Yu smiled when he heard this, and said, "Don't worry, I have already notified the French side to arrange your country's loan, and the interest can be calculated according to the lowest affordable price, and you will not be disappointed." ”

"Then thank you Mr. Lin Yu, if there is nothing else, I will leave first," Yeltsin was reassured, and his heart was happy, so he hurriedly prepared to leave, now that the Soviet Union has just disappeared, he has a lot of things to deal with.

When Yeltsin left, Fika walked out of another room, glanced in the direction of the door, and then said to Lin Yu, "Boss, when will you deal with him?" ”

Lin Yu looked at the document bag in his hand and said, "Now he still has use value, and when the Soviet economy is on the verge of collapse, then is the time to deal with these people, I hope he can cooperate at that time, otherwise I don't mind letting him disappear." ”

"Yes," Fika replied with a smirk.

The Soviet Union collapsed in months, and at the same time, another battle was underway: a war against 70 years of Soviet wealth, a bloodless war that filled the smoke of gunpowder.

The Soviets who got the privatized securities were rejoicing, but they forgot one thing, that is, they only got the securitized wealth on the books, and these wealth were denominated in rubles, and this became a breakthrough for Lin Yu and others to attack the wealth of the Soviet Union.

After gathering the rubles of the Soviet Union by various means, the major financial institutions began to prepare intensively, and a financial strangulation against the superpower officially began.

After hoarding a sufficient amount of rubles, borrowed entirely from the people and banks of the Soviet Union, a war to depreciate and suppress privatized securities began.

Everything came so suddenly, just when the Soviets were sinking into the yearning for a better life in the future, the international action against the Soviet Union also kicked off.

The major media in the United States, France, Germany, Britain, and other countries have successively published a number of "research reports" on the state-owned enterprises of the former Soviet Union, and the reports all hold that the state-owned enterprises of the former Soviet Union have no ability to survive on their own.

Standard & Poor's, a well-known U.S. rating agency, subsequently downgraded the debt rating of Soviet state-owned enterprises, believing that the bonds of state-owned enterprises in the former Soviet Union were seriously overvalued.

Then, the other two major rating agencies also expressed concern about Soviet corporate bonds, and the outlook turned from positive to negative.

At the same time, the IMF also believes that the ruble needs to be repriced, and the ruble should adopt a more liberal market-based float.

On the one hand, the accurate research reports of the international financial institutions and the overwhelming negative reports of the international financial media, and on the other hand, the corporate securities prices of the state-owned enterprises of the former Soviet Union have been falling rapidly.
