Chapter 148: Meeting
In the morning in Moscow, it was already eight o'clock, but it was still not bright. Fortunately, it will be until December or January, and it is said that it will not be until 10 o'clock in the morning.
I slept a lot in the past few days, and although I talked about it until three or four o'clock last night, Zhou Nan still woke up very early.
Looking at the sky outside, the sky in the southeast has turned white, although there are many clouds in the sky, they are all floating clouds in the sky, and the weather is good today.
There will be no meeting this morning, but in the afternoon there will be a meeting in the conference room of the hotel, and from the beginning of the evening, observers from various European countries will go to various parts of Russia for inspection.
Zhou Nan will not go down there to investigate, except for this afternoon's meeting, his itinerary in Moscow is only two cooperation projects with the Red Cross. One was to go to an orphanage in Moscow for a donation drive, and the other was to participate in the Russian Red Cross volunteer organization for an awareness campaign.
So his time in Moscow was very free, and he had a lot of time to work on the copyright-for-grain agreement.
However, having consulted with Stolko and Etinny last night, it was decided that he would not go around Moscow and wait for the call of the strongman.
Since Stolko has worked hard in Moscow for so long without any effect, then even Zhou Nan himself may not be able to solve the problem.
This matter still needs the approval of the strongman leader, as long as he nods, everything can be solved logically.
If he annoyed the strongman because he was messing around in Moscow, maybe something bad would happen.
Zhou Nan was still exercising in the morning when there was a knock on the door. Hearing Zhou Nan's response, Stolko pushed open the door and came in and said, "Jonas, the people from the Soviet Security Department have come, let's go downstairs for breakfast, and then everyone will get a pass." Without this pass, we would not have been able to move an inch in the USSR. ”
"Good...... I know. ”
After washing, Zhou Nan and Halder came to the second floor together. In the restaurant on the second floor, there are large large columns on the food table, and there are hard-boiled eggs in the basket next to it.
Several cooks stand by the stove and also serve fried eggs, grilled sausages and other foods. Two large tubs of hot milk are also placed there, and whoever wants to drink milk can put it themselves.
Although there are not many types of food, there are enough quantities to definitely fill people.
Stolko whispered: "The food supply here is already abundant, and in winter, there is a shortage of vegetables here, and even the Kremlin may not have too many vegetables." ”
Zhou Nan smiled: "I'm not a very picky person, you can get by, I can live too, don't worry about me." ”
This kind of buffet-style breakfast is more casual for everyone, and everyone usually eats it in a few minutes when there is a vacant seat.
Before Zhou Nan finished eating, three officials wearing the uniform of the Ministry of Security came to Zhou Nan, one of them turned out to be a yellow race, not a Mongolian, or a Kazakh, or even Chinese.
The yellow man said in Chinese: "Hello, Mr. Zhou Nan, welcome to Moscow. ”
Zhou Nanleng paused, quickly wiped his mouth, stood up and stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, I didn't expect to meet compatriots here." ”
He smiled and said, "Actually, we are not only compatriots, but also fellow countrymen. My name is Hu Ping'an, I am also from Green Island, I am currently studying in the Soviet Union, and I will return to China in the future. There are quite a few Chinese in Moscow, and you will meet many more compatriots. ”
Zhou Nan nodded and said: "In Europe, there are not many opportunities to meet compatriots, and when you see the same skin color and say the same words, you will have a natural sense of intimacy." ”
"Is it the same for all people?"
Zhou Nan hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Yes." We are all Chinese. ”
"I understand, I don't know if Mr. Zhou has time in the morning, I have completed the formalities for the delegation and want to visit."
"It's very welcome, it's hard to get domestic news in Europe, and I'm very concerned about the situation at home."
He smiled, shook Zhou Nan's hand heavily, and turned to leave.
At the door of the dining room, they set up a table and began to follow the list of delegations. Zhou Nan noticed that the color of the cards received by each different group was also different.
The security department wrote some words on the back of the card, then compared the real person with the photo, stapled the photo to the card, and then stamped it.
Stolko took out his pass and whispered to Zhou Nan: "Different colors represent different access rights and degrees of freedom. The content on the back is the nature and duration of the visit, and no one can violate it. ”
"Got it, let's go back to our room first."
Zhou Nan didn't want to eat, got up and led everyone back to his room. When passing by the door, Hu Ping'an looked up and smiled at him in his busy schedule, and he nodded in response.
Helder and Stolco exchanged problems encountered in the process of grain transportation, in terms of politics, Hyder is not as good as Stolko, but he has been engaged in business for decades, and has a lot of experience in this area, and when he hears many questions, he knows which aspects are difficult and which aspects are easy to operate.
Zhou Nan sat in front of his desk, and there were only a few pages left in the first volume of the "General History of the World" that had not yet been translated. But at this time, he didn't have the heart to translate.
Before coming to the Soviet Union, he thought that when he came to the Soviet Union, he would definitely meet people from his country. In Europe, he met another group, and Zhou Nan had no feelings for them, but just wanted to use them to complete the layout in the international community.
But with these people, his feelings are very complicated.
From the bottom of his heart, he loved his motherland and his people, but because of the hardships he encountered in another life, he was both admired and feared.
As for resentment, he didn't have much.
If his life had ended at the age of sixty, then he would have hated it. But later, after more than 30 years of development, he saw the strength of the motherland, and saw the encirclement and suppression of the country's rise in the world, and he had agreed with most of the reform and development concepts in his heart.
What kind of life is another life, he doesn't want to think about it anymore, and now he is a young man who still has a pure heart.
Therefore, he hopes that his motherland will be strong and prosperous, and that his motherland can develop rapidly. If they want to break through the world pattern that has almost solidified, only their leadership can succeed.
Zhou Nan sat at the desk and pondered for a long time, seemingly thinking a lot, but he didn't seem to think about anything. It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that Zhou Nan woke up from this contemplation.
No matter what the future holds, his desire for the motherland to be strong has not changed. As a Chinese currently living in Europe, he still has the same blood in his body and the same living habits.
Then, he should also do what he can for his homeland.
Seven or eight people came in from the door in an endless stream, and the first one was Hu Ping'an, who had a one-sided relationship, except for the other two officials of the Ministry of Security, the others turned out to be Chinese.
The living room of Zhou Nan's room is not small, but so many people come in at once, and it seems crowded.
Zhou Nan shook hands with them one by one, and in them, he also saw several familiar faces.
After introducing each other, the two Russian interpreters and the guide that Stolko had been looking for here in the Soviet Union got up and left. Several Swiss government officials also willingly stepped out to make room.
Popler and Flegg consulted for a while, and only one person was left to sit in the corner.
Zhou Nan left Etinny and Stolko behind, and Storko was also Zhou Nan's most trusted Russian translator. However, in today's meeting, I am afraid that there will be few opportunities to speak Russian......
Zhou Nan's heart was actually very excited, but he kept suppressing the excitement in his heart. He has had this kind of experience of being able to participate in history and change history many times, but this time it was completely different.
The conversation began with cumbersome diplomatic etiquette ......, and after a long greeting, Etinny handed over photos of the eight of them, and they also gave Zhou Nan a red pass representing the highest rank.
However, this pass is only available to Zhou Nan, and everyone else is blue, and without these assistants, where can Zhou Nan go alone, so this is just elevating Zhou Nan on the surface, and has no substantive effect.
However, the blue one is enough, and Storco introduced that the blue pass is already available in most places, and only some sensitive areas cannot be entered at will.
Then began the formal conversation.
An official from the Ministry of Security, who speaks popular German, first greeted Zhou Nan and congratulated him on his achievements.
Zhou Nan also gave each of them a record he recorded in the UK as a gift, expressing his gratitude to them.
Although Zhou Nan's records are expensive, they are selling very well. His books may not be able to circulate around the world because of language. But this kind of light music can be heard all over the world, after all, music knows no borders.
Therefore, he came to the Soviet Union this time to bring a whole box and more than 100 sets of records, specifically for gifts.
They were also quite satisfied with the gift, because the price of a complete set of Zhou Nan's records, which circulated on the black market, reached ten rubles.
Now the ratio of rubles to dollars has reached one to one, and the salary of an ordinary Soviet person is thirty or forty rubles, and this set of records is a week's salary of ordinary people, but it is still in short supply.
During his time in the Soviet Union, Stolko was hinted by many familiar officials that they wanted to get some records of Zhou Nan through him.
If Stolko hadn't sent him a telegram, Zhou Nan wouldn't have remembered giving the record as a gift.
Just when the friendship between the two sides was harmonious, a familiar face of Zhou Nan pretended to be a middle-aged man sitting in the crowd and asked softly: "Mr. Zhou, as an internationally renowned expert on international relations, do you have any views on the peace talks that are now taking place in China?" ”
