Chapter 522
The top leader was stunned when he heard Tang Yu's words, and then said, "Xiao Yu, what's going on?" Tang Yu took a deep breath and said slowly to the top leader on the other end of the phone: "Nikayev has just called China again and asked his uncle, who is an admiral, about the specific situation. It has been confirmed that South Korea has recently negotiated with Russia's Pacific Fleet for a price of 13 million US dollars. Ge acquired two main battleships of Russia's Pacific Fleet - Minsk and Novorossiysk! Now this matter has entered the final stage, because the Russian Pacific Fleet can't wait any longer. Not only do they have no money to pay wages, but even heating in winter has become a problem! Therefore, I expect that there will be a result in early August at the latest.
Hearing Tang Yu's words, the top leader on the phone was silent for a long time, and then slowly said, "Xiao Yu, are you sure about this matter?! You should know that every word you say now will affect the decision-making and strategic layout of our country. From our standpoint, we absolutely do not want South Korea to have an aircraft carrier. In terms of geographical conditions, their ownership of aircraft carriers is too much of a threat to us! In the long run, we must build aircraft carriers ourselves! No country in the world will watch our development and growth with peace of mind. We can only protect ourselves.
Tang Yu couldn't help but be silent when he heard the words of the supreme leader. This old man saw it thoroughly! However, it is no wonder that after all, the supreme leader went through the earliest revolution and cooperated with the Soviet Union during the founding of the country until the collapse of the Soviet Union! All the top leaders of all this are involved, drifting in the center of the whirlpool. If he didn't even have this judgment and vision, he would not have become the top leader or even directly set a reform plan that would affect the mainland and even the world for decades! But with this vision and courage, it surpasses how many self-righteous people. At present, Tang Yu said slowly to the top leader, "Grandpa, I'm not only sure but also sure! Now South Korea is indeed buying those two aircraft carriers with Russia's Pacific Fleet! I'm more sure: we have an advantage over them!"
Tang Yu did not retreat in the face of the pressure of the supreme leader, but took a deep breath and organized his own language and said slowly, "Grandpa, you should know: after all, we are still socialist countries, which is in the minds of current Russians, especially those soldiers and researchers. It's much better than their previous enemies, the United States and South Korea! Moreover, we once had a period of gay friendship with the Soviet Union, and even now there are many scientists who have studied in the Soviet Union. The interpersonal relationship and understanding are not comparable to that of the United States and South Korea! And more importantly, I have done a deal with their army, which also confirms our integrity and ability to pay! I believe this is also what Russia value now!"
Speaking of this, Tang Yu suddenly smiled and said, "Grandpa, don't you think there is some overproduction in our country now?! Because of the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the fact that the United States turned its main goal to us, many domestic export enterprises can only turn to domestic sales, and because the national purchasing power did not keep up, many enterprises are also in trouble! Although President Klinton said recently that he had the intention to relax, in fact, we are not sure when there will be a letter. Have you ever thought about how to deal with this matter?!" The chief didn't expect that Tang Yu would say such a thing for a while. After a while, he kept up with Tang Yu's jumping thinking and said, "These are also problems that you and your other grandfathers have headaches. Do you have any good ideas?" Hearing the supreme chief's question, Tang Yu smiled and then said, "Grandpa, don't forget! There is a country around us that lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of scientific research equipment, Seiko materials, machine tools and all kinds of talents we need most! And with all this, their deformed development has led to a large lack of food, TV, radio, and meat products that we have..."
If the top leader can't even understand Tang Yu's words, then he doesn't deserve to be the top leader! At present, the top leader at the other end of the phone said with a smile, "You little devil! Such a bad idea came out of my mind! It seems good to hear you say it! Our things are much cheaper than those in the United Kingdom and the United States, and it happens that Russia doesn't have much money now, but their heavy industry and talents, technology, and machine tools are all what we need! Well... you have proposed a new direction for us! We need to instruct them to study this topic..." Hearing the top leader say this, Tang Yu couldn't help but be very happy and said while the iron was hot: "Grandpa, we need to organize a large number of domestic enterprises to go to Russia to search for gold! If you don't go to this village at this time, there will be no such store!"
Tang Yu paused and added, "And we also have to select those enterprises with excellent quality and take this opportunity to build our own brand in Russia!" At that time, our company will benefit a lot. After all, Russia is the closest to us and rich in resources! The heritage of heavy industry is very profound, and now this chaotic situation cannot last. After all, there will be a strong figure coming out to clean up the mess. At that time, it will not be difficult for them to stand up with Russia's resources and heritage, and the oil and gas owned by Russia can also play a complementary role for our country. What's more, I believe that with our development, the use of resources will become more and more important! For example: iron ore, logs, copper, nickel, molybdenum and other resources are extremely rich resources in Russia! Especially for wood, the forest coverage rate in Russia is about 50%, with 1/5 of the world's wood reserves! Most of our forest farms in the northeast are no more logging, but those excellent skilled workers are abandoned because of this! And the domestic demand for wood is also increasing! From this point of view, we need this wood.
"Well, Grandpa! Why don't we directly exchange our surplus and cheap TVs, tape recorders, washing machines, refrigerators and other light industrial products in exchange for these resources and heavy industrial products in Russia?! You know, now the United States, Japan, South Korea... and other countries have sent people to deal with Russian researchers, design drawings, institutional secrets... and so on!" Speaking of this, Tang Yu paused and said with a smile, "Grandpa, I guess we have done it less, right?" Hearing Tang Yu's words, the supreme chief coughed a few times and said to Tang Yu, "Little devil! Don't be careless to the old man! Keep talking!"
Seeing that the top leader changed the topic, Tang Yu knew that we must also play in it! After all, this is a rare opportunity! If you really miss it, this supreme leader will not be able to become the supreme leader! In his previous life, Tang Yu once read a book called Sunset Gongqing City, in which the author described our introduction of Su 27. The author of this book: Bedler Puyelowsky should be a senior researcher in the Russian army's staff. His identity determines that he can see many analysis documents of intelligence agencies and conduct statistics and research on these documents. And the book also has a deep introduction to the development of the air force. In a word, one of them is the insider. This is the first information book in China that comprehensively introduces various stories and events behind the scenes of the sale and trading of weapons and equipment of the Chinese and Russian Air Force. It was serialized in NAAS Sea, Land, Air and Air Inertial World magazine, and it was not over until Tang Yu traveled. Although the book "Sunset Gongqing City" talks about the introduction of Su-27 from the mainland, more than half of it is about the economic, internal affairs and bureaucratic struggle of Soviet Russia. It writes about how Soviet Russia fell from a superpower to the point of even selling Su-27.
It even describes that the economic growth of Soviet Russia in the 1970s was achieved under the condition that the government stole the people's bank savings and increased investment under the condition of insufficient finances. Through this book, it can be seen that the collapse of Soviet Russia was doomed after Khrushchev was forced to step down by the bureaucratic group. Even if Gorbachev did not reform, he could only survive for a few more years. The abnormal development and chaotic structure led to the collapse of this superpower that once looked up to us overnight! It broke the glasses of most of the politicians on this planet!
"Grandpa, I think our steps are still too small! It must be bigger! What Russia needs now is what we have the most! If you don't do it at this time, how long do you have to wait?! And now Nikayev can match up for us, and we can even buy the most advanced aircraft carrier in Ukraine with those light industrial products in our hands!" Tang Yu resolutely said to the top leader on the other end of the phone, and the top leader was silent when he heard Tang Yu's words. He knew that the aircraft carrier mentioned by Tang Yu referred to Varyag, and he knew the aircraft carrier.
From the end of 1991 to the beginning of 1992, when a teacher from a mainland college exchanged contact with a colleague of the Ukrainian Shipbuilding Institute, the other party mentioned that his country's aircraft carrier could not be built, so he put it near the school and invited him to come and have a look when he was free. After returning from Ukraine, the teacher immediately reported the matter to his superiors. In March 1992, an aircraft carrier expedition from China visited the Ukrainian city of Nikolayev (the city could not be found on the map at that time). The members of the mission are composed of shipbuilding technical experts and military representatives. This mission has two tasks:
First, understand the performance of the ship, and second, understand the intentions of Ukraine. At that time, the disintegrated Soviet Union was being re-divided by 15 republics, and the Varyag, which began to be built in 1985, continued to be left to Ukraine. Because there was no money, the construction of the aircraft carrier was suspended in January 1992. By this time, the ship's engineering volume has been completed by more than 60%. The whole ship has been launched from the platform and moored at the dock dock. The large equipment on the ship has been installed, and many cables have been laid in place. At that time, Ukraine calculated that it would cost 250 million US dollars to disintegrate the ship, but the disintegrated party could only get 5 million US dollars. Therefore, Ukraine is actively looking for a next home for Varyag. At that time, the members of the investigation team saw that there were still many devices on the Varyag that had not been installed, and the power device was only placed on the base without screws. The reason why these devices are not installed, or because the equipment has not been delivered, or because the equipment has arrived but has no money to install.
According to people familiar with the matter, the abandoned fate of "Varyag" had signs before the collapse of the Soviet Union. The delivery of various configurations is not so timely. There are technical and economic problems here. For example, if the shipyard does not pay in advance, each factory will not be able to deliver the goods. After the delegation arrived in Ukraine, the other party was very enthusiastic and thought that the "comrade" had come. I just trust you very much and think you can help me support this 'son'. Some people also said, I'll come to your place to do it. The mission also found that the hull of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier (Ulyanov) was parked not far from Varyag. It is more modern than 'Varyag'. The factory revealed that it would be dismantled and sold to an American company, which was very cheap. When our personnel asked the factory director if he could come and have a look, the other party said helplessly and angrily, "What's the point of view? The ship is being dismantled in the shipyard."
What a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the collapse of the Soviet Union! Unfortunately, our country was extremely poor at that time! Even the army is being reduced! Poor! All the resources and money of the country are turning around in the construction of the country! The most regrettable thing is that the former Soviet Union can match the Nimitz-class, the Ulyanov-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the two aircraft carriers under construction owned by Ukraine could have been sold to us. If it hadn't been for the poor and hesitant personality of our country at that time, even if it cost more than a billion yuan. (In fact, it's not necessarily so expensive, and it's also scrap iron price to sell it to the United States.) Buying back the two dismantled aircraft carrier hulls of Varyag and Ulyanov together will have great direct benefits to our ship-building technology, peripheral technology and indirect benefits!
At that time, it was a big sale in Ukraine: buying ships, sending equipment, drawings, and personnel. If we had been quicker and seized the opportunity, the Americans would not have had the opportunity to deceive Ukraine and dismantle Ulyanov as scrap iron! Even the American personnel didn't pay, and almost pissed the Ukrainians to death! Therefore, the Ukrainian government in later generations has always had no good impression on the United States.
