In real history, when the former Soviet Union collapsed, the entire country fell into anarchy for a long time. During this period of time, both tangible fixed assets and intangible human capital in the Soviet Union were frantically carved up by the Western powers. Some of the advanced equipment was sold for scrap iron, and many scientists were poached by brokers and thrown into the arms of Western countries.

Lin Zhenhua has some knowledge of this history, so as early as a few years ago, he began to carefully plan, intending to compete with Western countries for these precious legacies of the former Soviet Union when the Soviet Union collapsed.

Four years ago, with the help of Wu Jie, an international leader, Lin Zhenhua obtained a lot of machinery and equipment from the Far East of the Soviet Union, as well as a large number of technical materials. These technical data are still the treasures of the Hanhua Technology Information Research Institute at the foot of Xiangshan, and have played an important role in several major technical breakthroughs.

Previously, Lin Zhenhua's actions were relatively cautious, after all, the Soviet regime was still there, and those assets were ownery, and if he went too far, he would inevitably be interfered with by the authorities. Now that the Soviet Union no longer exists, the emerging Russian government is preoccupied with political, military, and diplomatic thorny issues, and has no energy to focus on the loss of assets in specific companies. One by one, Western countries have already sharpened their knives and killed Russia, and if the Chinese do not make a move, there will be no soup left.

"What? Go to Russia to grab resources? ”

In Beijing, in Chen Tian's office, Liu Xianghai looked at Lin Zhenhua dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe what Lin Zhenhua had just said.

Lin Zhenhua waved his hand and said, "Mr. Liu, you misunderstood. I'm talking about rescuing resources, not grabbing them. Snatching resources is a crime, and it is impossible for an aspiring young man like me to do such a thing. Salvage resources are different, this is to protect the property of the Soviet people. ”

"Nonsense, other people's resources, why do you want to rescue them?" Liu Xianghai shook his head, "Your behavior is the act of robbing while the fire is hot." I now understand why a few years ago, you asked me to have a good relationship with the Russian military-industrial department, could it be that you had such a mind at that time? ”

Chen Tian interjected on the side: "Dean Liu, I agree with Zhenhua's opinion. You say it's robbery while it's hot, or it's rescuing resources, in short, it's time for us to take action. If we don't make any more moves, all the thousands of family fortunes accumulated by the former Soviet Union will fall into the hands of Western countries. ”

"How is this possible?" Liu Xianghai asked, "Even if the Soviet Union is gone, Russia still has a government, is it just watching outsiders come to steal things?" ”

Chen Tiandao: "Dean Liu, you don't work in our system, so you may not know much about some Russian situations. Now the situation in Russia is completely out of control, and even the Strategic Missile Forces are no longer in charge. For the sake of money, some troops even dare to take out nuclear warheads and trade them on the market. Now terrorist groups around the world are rushing to Russia, all planning to get one or two nuclear warheads. ”

"No," Liu Xianghai was shocked, "This is a big event that is going to break the sky, is your news true?" ”。

Chen Tiandao: "We have only gotten some rumors, but the Americans are already contacting us and asking for cooperation with us to stop the nuclear weapons deal in Russia." As you know, the U.S. intelligence services don't have much contact with us, but this time they were really anxious, so they came straight to the door. ”

Liu Xianghai said: "This is natural, if the nuclear warheads are lost, it will threaten the security of all mankind, and in this kind of matter, ideological differences can also be put aside." ”

"Dean Liu is right." Chen Tiandao, "Therefore, what Zhenhua said makes sense, these legacies of the former Soviet Union, rather than letting them fall into the hands of Western countries, it is better for us to get them back." In any case, we are also a socialist country, and we have the most inheritance rights. ”

"How could it be?" Liu Xianghai said thoughtfully, he turned his head to look at Lin Zhenhua and asked, "Xiaolin, you called me to Beijing for this purpose?" I still don't understand one thing, why are you looking for me about this? ”

"There are two reasons for this." Lin Zhenhua said, "First, the most powerful technology in the former Soviet Union is mainly concentrated in the field of military industry, so most of the technologies we are going to engage in this time are related to the military industry, and in terms of military industry, the most powerful one is naturally Mr. Liu." "...,"You Xiaolin, what is Mr. Liu called in a weird way?" Liu Xianghai said angrily, "You still call me Lao Liu." ”

"Well, then let's call you Lao Liu." Lin Zhenhua said with a smile, he called Liu Xianghai Mr. Liu, originally to amuse him, "This second reason is naturally because your old Liu was born in the Soviet Union and has a large number of relatives and friends in Russia, and those relatives and friends of yours are the technical backbone of various departments." If we want to dig talents, it is most appropriate for you to draw the strings. ”

"Are you going to get scientists from the former Soviet Union to China?" Liu Xianghai asked.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Of course, what is the most important thing in the 21st century? I don't have anything rare in the former Soviet Union, but that large number of scientists are priceless, if we don't get them, if they are taken away by the Americans, the impact on us will be too great. ”

Liu Xianghai nodded and said, "You're right. The military industry of the United States and the Soviet Union each has its own strengths, and if the Americans get the military technology of the Soviet Union, it will be equivalent to adding wings to the tiger, and the threat to us in the future will be even greater. Xiaolin, you don't know how much impact the Gulf War last year had on our entire military industrial system. The technological gap between us and the United States is really terrible, and if the Americans get the technology of the Soviet Union again, we can really only be beaten passively. ”

The Gulf War two years ago was the first high-tech war in human history. The high-tech prowess displayed by the US military in the war has really taken the global military community by surprise. It was at that time that the Chinese military began to deeply understand the need for a change in military technology.

However, when it comes to practical action, China is still very sluggish. The reason for this sluggishness lies in the fact that the national strength is really not good, and high-tech is something that burns money, and with China's economic strength at that time, to compete with the United States for high-tech level, it is simply a beggar who is richer than a dragon king.

"Lao Liu, in this way, you also approve of our plan to go to Russia to poach people?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Liu Xianghai said: "I am basically persuaded by the two of you now, however, this matter is very important, and I still need to report to the Naval Equipment Department, maybe, this matter will have to be jointly decided by the three headquarters." ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "Lao Liu, I can tell you, if you are wrong, there will be no store in this village, don't you study it for more than half a year, most of the year, enough for the Americans to dig up the foundation of the Soviets." ”

Liu Xianghai said: "No, there are priorities, things like this are the top priority, and I don't think the leaders of the headquarters will delay." In this way, Xiao Lin, Xiao Chen, you can roughly sort out your thoughts, and I will bring these thoughts to Minister Zhang Zhifang and ask him to report to the three headquarters again. ”

"No problem, I've already written a report, you can bring it to Minister Zhang." Lin Zhenhua said and handed Liu Xianghai a plan he had written. Liu Xianghai flipped through it roughly, and couldn't help but sigh: "Xiaolin, your heart is too big, according to your plan, you want to sweep away the wealth of the former Soviet Union." No, no, your idea is too big, and the leaders of the headquarters will not agree to it. ”

It is no wonder that Liu Xianghai felt scared, and in Lin Zhenhua's plan, it was suggested that the state organize a huge headhunting team to go to all research institutes and universities in Russia to recruit all valuable scientists and engineers. In addition, it is advisable to recruit high-level mechanics in large factories in Russia on a civilian basis. In view of Russia's large-scale dismantling of the former Soviet Union's armed forces, the report also proposes the acquisition of heavy equipment from the former Soviet army, including the Varyag aircraft carrier, the Glorious-class cruiser, the Typhoon-class nuclear submarine, and the Backfire strategic bomber......

"Hehe, how big the heart is, how big the stage is." Lin Zhenhua said proudly, "Lao Liu, you also have to change your concept." The collapse of the Soviet Union was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you want to have such a chance again, you can only wait for the disintegration of the United States. If you don't make a lot of money at this time, you will regret it for the rest of your life. ”

"Dean Liu, Zhenhua's plan is just an idea. Some things may not be achievable, but it just means be prepared. If we don't think things through first, I'm afraid we won't have time to think about it when we get to Russia. Chen Tian was beating a side drum on the side. Lin Zhenhua's report was made up by Chen Tian with the help of Chen Tian, and he had already sent a copy to the leaders of the Ministry of Security.

Liu Xianghai's passion was also stirred up by Lin Zhenhua and Chen Tian, he solemnly stuffed this report into his bag and said, "Okay, then I'll accompany you two young people to go crazy once." Good guys, if we can really succeed in directly acquiring the aircraft carriers, cruisers, and nuclear submarines of the Soviet Union, our strength will jump to several steps at once. Xiaolin, I can tell you, if there is a real opportunity to buy these things, you companies will have to help pay for them. ”

"No, Lao Liu, you dignified military, can't you even take out this little money?" Lin Zhenhua said bitterly.

"Little money?" Liu Xianghai glared, "These things, I'm afraid I can't take them without tens of billions, right?" A lot of words, how much do we spend on the military a year? ”

"Let's issue Treasury bonds." Lin Zhenhua suggested, "Make a suggestion to the Military Commission, it is called the special public bond for rescuing Soviet resources, and I will personally subscribe for 2 million first." ”

Chen Tian smiled slightly: "Come on, Zhenhua, don't be poor, you let Dean Liu hurry up and report." We still have things on our hands. To go to Russia, we have to figure out under what name and with whom to go. Also, whether to deal with the Russian authorities or not. ”

"Okay, you guys discussed, I'll go see Minister Zhang now." Liu Xianghai said......,
