Chapter 478

"Down with the Bolsheviks! Down with the Soviets! ”

"Down with the General Secretary! Down with the president! ”

Banners of all kinds, shouting anti-government slogans, were accompanied by the voices of the demonstrators outside the exclusion zone. A large number of bricks, stones, wine bottles, and garbage bags were smashed into the riot police team like a torrential rain. There were even some violently burning Molotov petrol bombs mixed in. Despite wearing steel helmets and holding tempered glass panes cast into riot shields, as the conflict intensified, there were still police officers who were smashed from time to time bleeding and wailing.

Of course, the riot police are not dry and face the increasing tendency of violent attacks on the demonstrators. As soon as the whistle from the mouth of the on-site commander sounds, a needle-point counterattack against Maimandi will be launched in an instant. Smoke bombs, tear gas. One after another, six or seven high-pressure water cannons were sprayed at the same time, and the overwhelming wails and coughs resounded through the streets in an instant, and the demonstrators, who had flaunted their might a few seconds ago, were quickly blown away.

It's really what I've seen in books in the past, Ye Laosi actually witnessed it himself when he stood here, and to be honest, it didn't feel good.

In the past few days, it should not be said that in the past half a month, Ye Laosi has become numb to this kind of conflict between citizens and the military and police, and their farce of violent conflicts that come and go is staged seven or eight times a day. It is said that several hospitals in the city have been filled with wounded people in the past two days, and even more so of those who have lost their lives in the clashes.

"Hmph, it's all a bunch of idiots! Idiots, stupid, and poor creatures! Seeing that a new round of conflict was about to be staged on the street outside the window, Ye Laosi watched coldly. pursed his lips disdainfully, sneered, and said to himself.

Don't look at the excitement now, the number of people who demonstrate in the evening will drop sharply, because everyone will go home to watch TV after work.

Ye Laosi bought the news media in the Far East, including TV stations, to be honest, the TV stations in the Soviet Union are too boring now, and in addition to the news, most of the TV dramas produced by the Soviet Union itself, patriotic educational films.

You can't put these on every day! Ye Laosi's head turned. Through Cheng Shigui in Hong Kong, he asked him to collect a large number of local, American, Japanese, and Southeast Asian videos, and there are dramas. There are cartoons, there are movies, etc., there is a wide variety, it is everything.

Ye Laosi sent people to enter the Soviet Union through the underground passage. After all, Hong Kong was a free port and the TV industry was relatively developed. Finally, there is fresh blood input, so that it will not be boring, and the video recorder behind him is showing the Hong Kong drama "I am Kind", of course, in Chinese. It's not Russian, and it's a relief from homesickness.

In recent years, the Soviet Union has become a pot of porridge and the legal situation is in chaos, so it is difficult to include any copyright issue in the scope of national laws and regulations. And this has also created a good foundation for the transformation of Ye Laosi TV Station. He has accumulated a lot of popularity, and this is what he wants, and the news media is just a tool he needs to master. Whether it's a Hollywood blockbuster or an animated children's show. As long as the group can get the tape, after a little processing, it will be able to be screened on various TV stations immediately.

At present, the states of the Far East are subordinate to Ye Laosi's television stations, and every night after 8 o'clock, all kinds of overseas translated films begin to be screened, and this kind of novel and popular television programs have swept the entire Far East in a very short period of time. And the so-called demonstrations seem to have become a routine, going to work at the end of the day and leaving work after dark.

In fact, as early as a month ago, the Far East was in a state of total martial law. The three violent departments of the Ministry of Defense, the State Security and Intelligence Agency, the KGB, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, acted in unison, without any scrambling or pushing, and were unprecedentedly united. If there is nothing hidden in this, Ye Laosi will not believe it.

Later, when he saw the intensifying demonstrations in the distance, Ye Laosi had a deeper consideration, and he didn't have to think about the capital at this time, it was estimated that it was more serious than this, and he analyzed the current political situation in the Soviet Union, and the answer was about to come out. At present, the domestic political situation in the Soviet Union can be said to have come to the cusp, and Ye Shidi has a "party purging order". Pushing the centrists and traditionalists to a dead end, it is obvious that within the centrists and traditionalists, all the officials of the same size, are members of the Soviet Union, and the traditional one-party regime model of the Soviet Union. So that those who were not Bolsheviks outside the party had no chance of rising to high positions.

Now, the radicals led by Ye take control of Russia, the largest union republic in the Union of Republics. They wanted to purge the party in the all-Russian government and in the military departments, and change the previous political model of direct Soviet control over the army and government, and replace it with the so-called political model of the local parliamentary system of universal elections. In this case, once the policies pursued by this careerist become a reality, there is no doubt that the local roots of centrists and traditionalists will be swept away. They will completely lose their influence over Russia as a whole.

There is a limit to any forbearance, especially for the traditionalists, who are already on the verge of despair. They now have most of the violent apparatus of the Soviet state in their hands, and the main source of power is the Soviet Central Committee, and if they remain indifferent in the face of Ye's purge order, then when the dust settles. They will lose all the trump cards they have to fight back. If the traditionalists want to fight back, they obviously cannot rely solely on mobilizing the masses and organizing speeches, as the radicals do. Then, by taking the so-called grassroots line, they will have more powerful tools to fight back -- the army, the police, the KGB and secret agents -- than the "democratic elites" of the radicals, and if these three tools of violence can be used well, all the preparations that the radicals have done before will be useless.

But then again, it is very difficult for the traditionalists to make the violent institutions they control work, and the corruption of the Soviet Union corrupts all strata. Under the influence of the current domestic political environment in the Soviet Union, the boldness of corrupt officials is shocking, they only have money in their eyes, as long as they have money, then there is nothing they dare not do, at the same time, the appetite of these officials seems to be increasing day by day, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands of rubles in bribes are no longer in their eyes, they need much more than this.

The minds of these people are so clear, and the way they reach out to ask for bribes is also so direct, and compared to this, the answer given by Ye Laosi is also clear - "As long as you dare to reach out and ask for it, I dare to give it, provided that you must give me sufficient returns." ”

These officials, who are looking forward to taking more money out of the pockets of Ye Laosi's fast-rising wealthy people, are probably completely disappointed in this country, and they are eager to directly auction all the power in their hands, and then flee abroad with these bribes to start their new lives.

It is impossible to lose the support of the people and not come up with sufficient excuses to want these countries to mobilize violent machines, and the current Soviet Union is no longer as good as it used to be, and the military is not discouraged and can be dispatched if it wants to, and the secret police are not able to arrest whoever they want. They are all bent on selfish interests, no matter whether this country lives or dies, it's a big deal to get enough money and pat their butts and leave, and the world is big.

All kinds of changes here, Ye Laosi was frightened to see it, a regime that had been fought hard and fought through the blood and fire revolution was ruined in a few days, it can really be said that he has been fighting the country for 18 years and sitting on the country for 18 days. This tragic ending is terrifying, who can afford to make such a mistake? In the words of the ancestors, "In fact, since the Qin State for more than 2,000 years, those who have promoted social progress have been corrupted because of pride, and the country has perished because of corruption." "It is suitable for any country, an eternal and unchanging law.

"Knock knock......" The knock on the door sounded, and Ye Lao said lightly without looking back, "Come in!" "The voice is powerful and majestic.

"Squeak!"

Just when Ye Laosi was full of thoughts, the door of the living room was gently pushed open from the outside, and then a young man in a suit and leather shoes, holding a roll of documents in his hand, walked in with a smile on his face.

"Boss, the typesetting of the newspaper news section of tomorrow has come out," the leather shoes under his feet knocked on the smooth wooden floor, and he stood one meter away from Ye Laosi and stopped, respectfully handed the manuscript in his hand to Ye Laosi, and said with a smile, "Take a look!" What else needs to be redacted. I had the time to revise it. ”

Ye Laosi took the scroll in his hand and said without raising his head. "Sit down!"

"Yes!" He sat down according to his words, raised his head with his chest straight, did not squint, sat very respectfully, and looked at Ye Laosi with adoration with little stars in his eyes.

Although the news media is now controlled by Ye Laosi, Ye Laosi still has a very strict grip on news broadcasting, whether it is newspapers, radio or television programs, what kind of things can be published and broadcast, and what kind of things cannot be publicized to the outside world. He has to take care of it himself, especially when it comes to journalism. He stared even closer.

Just like the news section of the newspaper every day, he asked that after the draft of the newspaper came out, he had to personally review it, and the news news that he felt could be published could only be published in the newspapers under the company, and the part that he felt could not be published. It had to be deleted and replaced.

And the rest of the power is given to the people below, who come out of the country, and they all know that the propaganda position is very important. (To be continued.) )
