industrial overlord

Chapter 440 Summoned by Emperor Pyujin
The car drove through half of Moscow City, drove into an unremarkable courtyard, and parked in front of a four-story building.

"Mr. Lin, we are here. Please get out of the car." A Russian man sitting in the passenger seat quickly jumped out of the car, opened the door of the back seat, and said to Lin Zhenhua in fluent Chinese.

"Let's go, Lan Lan." Lin Zhenhua said to He Lan who was sitting with him in the back seat.

When the two of them got out of the car, the Russian man very naturally covered the top of the door with his hand, lest they accidentally kowtow.Such a subtle movement also made Lin Zhenhua feel respect from the other party.

"Where is Chief Pewzin?" Lin Zhenhua asked the Russian man.

"The director is waiting for you in the office, please follow me." The Russian man bowed slightly, then stretched out his hand and made a guiding gesture.

Lin Zhenhua nodded, and led He Lan into the building following the Russian man.

Just as Chen Tian guessed, it was the staff of the Russian Federal Security Service who went to the hotel to find Lin Zhenhua.As soon as they saw Lin Zhenhua, they bluntly stated that their chief, Pyujin, wanted to have an interview with him and asked him if he had a convenient time.

Hearing that it was Pewzin who summoned him, Lin Zhenhua was very excited.Anyway, this man is also a person who can make the world hear something by stomping his feet ten years later. Now that he wants to meet Lin Zhenhua by name, how can he not feel flattered?
Chen Tian, ​​He Haifeng, Liu Xianghai and others were very surprised that Pewjin wanted to meet Lin Zhenhua.If it is said that Pewzin wants to meet with any one of the three of them, there is some reason, but Lin Zhenhua is not from the security system, the military, or a senior official of the Chinese government. How could he enter Russia? What about the sight of the FSB?

"Uh... Lao Pi and I met once, you know, seven years ago, in Frankfurt..." Lin Zhenhua said wildly.However, for this reason, even he himself could not believe it.At that time, he was just an ordinary exhibitor. Although he had a few chats with Puyuzin, after 7 years, do people still remember him?

"I'll go with you." Chen Tian volunteered.

The Russian agent who came to invite Lin Zhenhua refused Chen Tian's request with a smile, and told him that the only thing the director wanted to see was Mr. Lin. If you are interested in other people, you can make another appointment with the director.

In the end, Lin Zhenhua took He Lan with him in the name of a secretary, and they got into a car driven by Russian agents.The purpose of him bringing He Lan is also to let He Lan open his eyes. After all, such opportunities don't come along all the time.As for safety, there is no need to worry at all. Since Pyuzin has made an appointment with him publicly, there is naturally no danger.

Regarding Lin Zhenhua's purpose of bringing He Lan, Chen Tian and others have a different interpretation.They believed that maybe Lin Zhenhua brought He Lan to witness in order to avoid going to the Russian security department alone.

"Director, they are here." The agent pushed open the door of Pyudzin's office and reported inside.

"Bring them in," ordered Puyuzin.

The agent guided Lin Zhenhua and He Lan into the door, sat them down on the sofa, poured tea for them, and then quietly closed the door and left.While the agents were doing these things, Piutin had been sitting upright behind his big desk, concentrating on correcting a document, until the agents left the office, he raised his head, smiled and said to Lin Zhenhua in English: " Mr. Lin, very glad we met again. Do you remember me?"

Of course I remember you, Lin Zhenhua Haoxuan didn't blurt it out.Seven years ago, at the Frankfurt International Equipment Exhibition, Pewzin brought two former Soviet military personnel to the Chinese booth to seek cooperation. At that time, Lin Zhenhua had a conversation with Pyzin.For Lin Zhenhua, this incident left a very deep impression on him, because he has the consciousness of a time traveler and knows who he is talking to.Lin Zhenhua was surprised that Pewzin still remembered meeting Lin Zhenhua.Perhaps, this is where Puyuzin excels. How about he can be the head of the All-Russian KGB?

"Director Pewzin, I'm very glad to meet you again. I'm very sorry. I didn't know your identity when I was in Frankfurt seven years ago, so I neglected you so much." Lin Zhenhua also replied in English.

"I don't have any special status. I'm just an ordinary state worker. It was so in the past, and it's still the same now." Pyujin said lightly.

"Yes, we are just ordinary workers." Lin Zhenhua also replied with a slight smile.In front of Pyuzin, he felt oppressed, but he still had to pretend to be calm, not wanting to show his timidity.

"Mr. Lin, you don't mind if I take the liberty to invite you here this time?" Puyuzin asked.

"I feel very honored." Lin Zhenhua replied, "It's just that I still don't understand something. Director Pyujin is so busy with work, how can he have time to meet an ordinary businessman like me?"

Pugh said: "Mr. Lin, you are by no means an ordinary businessman. As far as we know, one of the people who came to Russia with you this time is a senior official from China's national security department, and the other is from the Chinese military industry department." Senior officials. If you can walk with them, then you are no ordinary businessman."

Lin Zhenhua was not surprised by Pewzin's straightforward words.The identities of Chen Tian and Liu Xianghai could not be kept secret.What's more, they are running around in Russia to recruit technical talents, and they certainly cannot escape the sight of the Russian security agencies.It's just that, instead of looking for Chen Tian and Liu Xianghai, Piyoujin only looked for Lin Zhenhua, what was his intention?Could it be that he really wanted to recruit him as an insider for the KGB?

"I think the situation that Chief Pewzin has learned should be more detailed." Lin Zhenhua replied noncommittally, and he would wait to hear Pewzin's next words.

Pugh said: "According to the information we have, your activities in Russia during this period have already posed a threat to the security of the Russian Federation, so I think it is necessary for me to communicate with you."

There was no expression on Puyuzin's face as he said these words, neither as a joke nor as a real accusation.Lin Zhenhua couldn't figure out what Piutin meant when he said these words, so he had no choice but to reply calmly, "Director Piutin, I don't quite understand what you said. We just visited some friends in Russia. Our What we did was completely public, and there was nothing that violated Russian laws. So, you say that our actions pose a threat to Russia's security, and I don't quite agree."

"Mr. Lin, we don't need to go around the corner. The people you are visiting are all the best military personnel in Russia. You hire them to go to China to do military industry research. Isn't this threatening Russia's security?" Pyuzin Said, while staring at Lin Zhenhua's eyes with eagle-like eyes.

He Lan's English level is also good. She could hear the conversation between Lin Zhenhua and Puyujin clearly.Seeing that Puyujin broke the layer of window paper unabashedly, He Lan's heart skipped a beat. She turned her head to look at Lin Zhenhua, not knowing how Lin Zhenhua would answer.

Lin Zhenhua's heart was also up and down, and he didn't know what Puyuzin's intention was.It is an open secret that they are poaching talents in Russia. If the Russian side wanted to stop them, they would have already done so.Now, some of these people have already arrived in China, and it has become a fait accompli. What is the purpose of Pewzin's remark at this time?

"Director Pyuzin, you are right. We are indeed recruiting some Russian researchers to work in China. However, not all of them go to the military industry, and some of them go to the private sector to serve. .According to what we have learned, the United States, Europe, Japan and other countries are also recruiting talents in Russia. If you want to say that they threaten Russia's security, I think their actions are more threatening." Lin Zhenhua said.

There seemed to be a hint of a smile on Puyuzin's face, but the smile was buried so deep that it was hard to see clearly without looking carefully.He asked: "Mr. Lin, why do you think the actions of the United States and other countries are more threatening?"

He's playing tricks on me!Lin Zhenhua's mind flashed like lightning.If he is not a time traveler, he would never be able to guess Pyuzin's political orientation, but he is just a time traveler. He knows very well that when Pyuzin took power in Russia a few years later, he would not be able to guess Pyuzin's political orientation. It was somewhat hostile.In other words, if there is one person in Russia who is wary of the West at this time, it can only be Pyuzin.

After figuring this out, Lin Zhenhua knew how to speak.Reminiscent of what He Haifeng told him about the attitude of Russian officials towards China, Lin Zhenhua believes that Pyuzin is currently a loner in the Russian government.The whole world is drunk, but Pewzin is alone. He obviously wants to learn about China's true attitude towards Russia from Lin Zhenhua.

"Director Pewzin, with all due respect, your government currently has too many illusions about Western countries. Some government officials are willing to express hostility towards China in order to flatter the West. I think this kind of thinking is politically It is very naive. Russia is a big country. If Russia becomes stronger, it will pose a geopolitical threat to Western countries. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Western countries to really help Russia. At this time, Russian military personnel will flow to the West The country will inevitably become a hidden danger to Russia's national security in the future." Lin Zhenhua said calmly.

"What about China? For China, Russia is also a big country in geopolitics. Doesn't China have any wariness against Russia?" Puyuzin asked.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Of course China is wary of Russia. There is an old saying in China that it is necessary to have the heart of harming others and the heart of defense. China and Russia share thousands of kilometers of border, and there have been frictions in history. It is impossible to expect China to fully trust Russia."

"Go on," Puyuzin nodded.It seemed that he wasn't annoyed by Lin Zhenhua's words. On the contrary, he seemed to think that Lin Zhenhua's openness was more to his liking.

Lin Zhenhua also had a good understanding of Pewzin's psychology and personality, so he expressed his opinions so bluntly.He knew that with his practice, it was impossible to lie in front of Piuzin, so he might as well say something.He believes that his views should be able to get Pewzin's appreciation.

"However, although China is wary of Russia, there is more room for cooperation between the two sides. In the next 20 years, China and Russia will face threats from the United States and other Western countries. Therefore, China and Russia must cooperate with each other Only by being the horns of each other can they gain their proper status in future international struggles. From this point of view, making China stronger quickly is the most in line with Russia's national security requirements." Lin Zhenhua continued.

"So, for China, does a strong Russia conform to China's national interests, or does it not?" Puyuzin continued to ask.

Facing Pjuzin's pressing, Lin Zhenhua had no way out. He bit the bullet and replied: "China and Russia can only coexist peacefully when they are in a balance of power. If one side compares with the other If it is strong, then the other side must be insecure. In the former Soviet Union era, China has always suffered from threats from the north, so an overly strong Russia is not ideal for China.”

"Mr. Lin, you are very straightforward." Pew Zinpi praised with a half-smile.

It's not that I'm being straightforward, but because this is a truth that everyone on Earth knows, and it doesn't make sense for me to hide it any more, Lin Zhenhua thought to himself.He continued: "However, now that the Soviet Union has disintegrated, I don't need to say more about Russia's economic situation? I think that if Russia's economy continues to decline, it will not be a good thing for China. China needs A powerful Russia, to share international pressure with China.”

Lin Zhenhua's words are quite artistic. If he wants to be more straightforward, he can say that China actually needs a relatively powerful Russia to serve as a shield for China.Pewzin was well aware of the subtext in Lin Zhenhua's words, and he asked, "Mr. Lin, is what you said just now your personal opinion, or the official Chinese opinion?"

"I have no right to represent the government." Lin Zhenhua said, "What I said is only my personal opinion. However, I think that people of insight in China should be able to see this. The top officials of the Chinese government, His vision should be broader than mine."

Pyuzin was silent for a while, and then said: "Thank you, Mr. Lin, thank you very much for being able to speak your mind frankly. I invited you here today because Academician Savyev recommended you to me. , he believes that we should be able to carry out some in-depth cooperation between you and us."

　Let me explain that the novel is just an overhead history, and some things don't need to be delved into.In 92, Puteri was still a teacher at St. Petersburg University, and it was 6 years later that he returned to the KGB.In the novel, he was appointed an official in advance, just for the needs of the plot.The future plot will deviate more and more from the historical reality, so we will not clarify them one by one.
