Seryosha was not enthusiastic about the upcoming 28th Congress of the CPSU, because he did not expect this meeting to reunite the scattered Soviet Union. However, Seryo still took the time to have in-depth communication with Yeltsin, Sobchak and others.

From the current political structure of the Soviet Union, the city of Leningrad has a hint of an economic center, and since Seryosha set the first special economic zone of the Soviet Union here, it has become the locomotive of the national economy. It is against this background that the cadres of the Leningrad Special District are inherently superior, because as soon as any region can get investment or cooperation from Leningrad, the economy of the region will increase significantly.

Because of their status, the cadres of the Leningrad Special Economic Zone naturally hope to have a greater say in the second ******. Yeltsin and Sobchak, in particular, very much hoped that Seryosha would stand up and enter the ****** in the second ******. But this was not included in Seryosha's plan, Seryosha was unwilling to be the one standing in the foreground, he preferred to hide quietly behind the scenes, quietly controlling everything.

Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, Georgia, and Moldavia, who had declared independence, did not pay much attention to it, and did not devote any resources to these regions from the beginning to the end. Seryosha has always rooted his roots deep in Russian soil, so judging from Seryosha's true thoughts, he would prefer to let Yeltsin be elected as the supreme leader of the Russian Republic as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, the situation still did not go according to Seryosha's vision, because of Seryosha's outstanding performance during this time, he was nominated as a candidate for the secretary of the CPSU ********** in charge of economic construction, and the weight of this position Seryosha knew that if he was elected, he would become the helmsman of the Soviet economy, and his immediate boss would be Yakovlev, who was in charge of ideological and international affairs. Seryosha was tempted to turn off the nomination, but he didn't have a suitable excuse. For this reason, he could only silently pray that his age defect was enough to allow him to pass by this position.

The 2nd ****** conference program focused on seven issues, including the seven current challenges facing the CPSU – "Party Innovation", "Ideological Work", "Economic Policy of the CPSU", "Agricultural Policy of the CPSU", "Party, Soviet and Socio-Political Organization", "National Question" and "International Question". Among them, the reform of the party involves the revision of the constitution of the CPSU, while the ideological work involves the central question of whether to continue to uphold Marxism-Leninism. Among them, only economic and agricultural issues are the main tasks for which Seryosha is actually responsible. The remaining three questions are about the future political structure of the Soviet Union, how to deal with the independence of the union republics, and the loss of strategic buffers in Eastern Europe.

Seryosha originally came to the meeting with the attitude of watching the show, but he soon found that he actually had many supporters in the party, and many party members wanted Seryosha to share his experience in the Leningrad Special Economic Zone. This suddenly pushed Seryosha to the cusp.

Seryosha's sudden rise attracted the attention of the other two factions in the party, the Democratic Program and the Marxist-Leninist Program. The bosses of these factions were Yakovlev and Ligachev, who fought to the death ********** the CPSU, Yakovlev hoped that the CPSU would become a similar existence to the British Labour Party, while Ligachev wanted to continue to uphold the leadership of the CPSU. But the struggle between the two factions was always about ideology and political lines, and they did not come up with a good solution to the economy, which made many party members from the grassroots interested in the successful Leningrad road, including Lithuania, which had already declared independence.

As Ligachev and Yakovlev made speeches at the meeting, many delegates improvised a new motion, that is, they hoped that Comrade Ulyanov would share his views. This proposal quickly gained the support of the majority of deputies, in which case Seryosha could only come to the stage to give an impromptu speech without preparation.

"Hello comrades from all over the country! It is an honor to meet party members and representatives from all over the country again. Some people want me to talk about the experience of the Leningrad Special Economic Zone, but I want to say that it is a lesson! ”

"At this meeting today, I heard a lot of voices that I had never heard before. Some people suggested that the name of our party should be changed to Social Democratic Party, and some comrades said that the ethereal party would never be realized. But in my opinion, are these issues really the concerns of the common people of the Soviet Union? ”

"Speaking of **, I am reminded of an interesting incident when Comrade Khrushchev visited Hungary in 1950, when the Hungarian masses asked him, ** is like? Khrushchev replied that if ** was realized, the Hungarian people would be able to eat "Gulasi" (that is, roast beef with potatoes) every day. Just last year, Hungary lost power, and many Hungarians had an unforgettable Christmas without Gulassie, but I am glad that our people briefly reached the Khrushchev-style **...... during the Meat Thanksgiving Festival."

Seryosha was about to continue, but was interrupted by the applause below, which lasted for more than a minute. Seryosha smiled and waited for the applause to end, then continued.

"At this very moment, on the site of the Eurasian gas pipeline, a million Soviet workers are hard at work, and I don't know how much of the issues we are discussing here today are of concern to them. If what we're talking about is too far from their lives, I don't know if we're still qualified to represent them. I hope that you will focus on the issues that the people are concerned about, and as for other issues, I think it will not be a big deal if we discuss them later or even not at all. ”

Seryosha finished what he wanted to say and walked off the podium, not even making any response to the applause that followed. It wasn't until the final election of the new ****** committee members that Seryosha suddenly heard his name.

"Comrade Ulyanov of the foreign economic and trade system was elected second secretary of the ********** of the CPSU, and Comrade Ulyanov was invited to take a seat on the rostrum......"

At this moment, Seryosha suddenly felt that everything was so unreal......
