Chapter 441 The ambition to snipe the Japanese
Regarding the matter of Lin Zhenhua and others poaching talents in Russia, Pyuzin had already obtained information, but he could only watch helplessly and had no way to intervene.

Firstly, the Gaidar government is out of the mentality of showing favor to the West, and secondly, it is said that it has some theory of stimulating consumption. In short, it has adopted a set of policies to significantly reduce military expenditures.As soon as this policy was introduced, the vast majority of military enterprises fell into the predicament of suspending work and production, and the various upstream research departments also ran out of food at the same time.

Driven by the pressure of life, a large number of military scientific research personnel began to lose, some went to emerging private companies, and some went to foreign countries.For this situation, Pyujin, as the head of the security department, knows best.At the beginning, he had submitted a report to the president and the prime minister, requesting to prevent researchers from those key departments from going abroad, but the prime minister told him that restricting the flow of scientific research personnel is not universal, because everyone is born free.

Pyuzin knew that the prime minister said this because he was worried that the policy of restricting personnel from key departments to go abroad would offend the West, because those who come to Russia to poach people are institutions from Western countries, and quite a few of them have government backgrounds in Western countries.After the prime minister made a statement, Pyuzin had no choice but to know that the funding of the FSB in his hand has also been greatly reduced, and some senior government officials even said that they want to abolish the FSB. The reason is natural. Also because of some universal standards.

Regarding the fact that the Chinese military came to Russia to poach people, Piyuzin was also guilty of muttering.Gaidar's staff team is a group of scholars who don't understand military and strategy, but Pewzin is not stupid. He knows very well how much promotion these military industrial talents will bring to China's national defense force once they flow into China.When he learned that Tuchinov, the aircraft carrier authority, had been invited to go to China, Pyuzin met with the old scientist Savyev and asked him to evaluate the possibility of China building an aircraft carrier and the possible threat to Russia.

In that conversation, Savyev talked to Puyuzin about a young Chinese businessman like Lin Zhenhua, and mentioned Lin Zhenhua's point of view that peace between China and Russia will benefit both, and confrontation will hurt both.

Pyuzin is a person with an excellent memory. When Savyev mentioned Lin Zhenhua, he immediately remembered the meeting he had with Lin Zhenhua in Frankfurt seven years ago.Lin Zhenhua felt that he was an ordinary person, and thought that Pewzin could not take him seriously, but he did not know that the meeting left a very deep impression on Pyzin.After all, Lin Zhenhua is a time traveler, and his speech and behavior are somewhat different from other people.Pewzin is engaged in intelligence work, so he is naturally very sensitive to such abnormalities, so even after many years, he can still think of such a strange person as Lin Zhenhua.

Having had previous contacts and the situation introduced by Savyev, Piuzin was sensitively aware that Lin Zhenhua might be a possible partner for cooperation.Pyuzin has always been critical of the Gaidar government's China policy, but in his capacity, he cannot change the status quo at all.Now, with Lin Zhenhua, a non-government entrepreneur who has considerable status and can clearly see the essence of Sino-Russian relations, perhaps the Sino-Russian relations can be broken from him.

Pewzin did not make appointments with Chen Tian, ​​Liu Xianghai, and He Haifeng because these three are members of the Chinese government system.In their capacity, they can only cooperate with the Russian government, and it is impossible to cooperate with Pyuzin in private.What Pewzin needed was a collaborator outside the system, who would enable him to hide from government interference and realize his vision.What the Gaidar government rejects is only cooperation with the Chinese government. They will not interfere with non-governmental cooperation.After all, non-governmental exchanges also belong to the universal category, don’t they?

As Lin Zhenhua realized, the real purpose of Pewzin's accusation against Lin Zhenhua just now was to set Lin Zhenhua's words and let him speak his true thoughts.Now, Lin Zhenhua's answer has verified Saviev's previous introduction, and Pyuzin believes that there is no need for him to go around in circles with Lin Zhenhua.Cooperation between smart people is best not to go around too many circles.

"Mr. Lin, I invited you here to discuss cooperation with you. We need help from China very much now." Piutin said.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Director Pewzin, shouldn't it be more appropriate for you to discuss this issue with officials of the Chinese government? Officials from China's State Planning Commission are currently in Russia. Why don't you choose to discuss this topic with them?"

Pewzin said: "I am not in charge of the negotiations with the Chinese government, and I have no control over them. But the current situation forces me to seek help from China. Otherwise, Russia's security will really be at risk." It's a huge threat."

"Oh? What happened?" Lin Zhenhua asked solemnly.

"The Japanese government sent a delegation to negotiate with the Russian government and expressed its intention to provide low-interest loan assistance to Russia," Piyuzin said.

"It's a good thing." Lin Zhenhua smiled slightly. Of course he knew that when Pyujin mentioned this to him, it was definitely not to show off, but to have something to say later.

Pyujin also smiled slightly, and said: "However, the Japanese government's loan is not free. They hope that Russia can hand over the South Kuril Islands to Japan to show its sincerity."

"Damn!" Lin Zhenhua finally couldn't help shouting.He has always known that the Japanese can't afford it early, so he offered to provide loans to Russia, and he must have some intentions.But he never imagined that the Japanese would have such great ambitions that they proposed the ownership of the southern Thousand Islands as a loan condition.

The South Kuril Islands, also known as the Four Northern Islands by the Japanese, refer to the four islands of Kunigo, Otoro, Hamai, and Shikotan between Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula and Japan's Hokkaido.The ownership of these four islands is one of the bad debts left by World War II.Russia has long maintained control of the four islands, while Japan has firmly claimed that the four islands are Japanese territory and demanded that Russia return them.

The total area of ​​the four northern islands is about 5000 square kilometers, and they are very rich in resources.According to statistics, the continental shelf of the four islands has about 16 billion tons of gas resources, about 1867 tons of gold, 9284 tons of silver, 2.73 million tons of iron, and 1.17 million tons of sulfur.In addition, Iturup Island also contains 36 tons of very precious rhenium, which is a metal deposit that is more precious than gold.

In addition to resources, the four northern islands are of strategic significance to Russia. They are one of the few remaining important channels for Russia to freely enter and exit the ocean.Affected by geographical location, most of the sea passages in the Russian Far East will be frozen in winter, while the waterways of the Kuril Islands are still navigable in winter due to the influence of the warm current in the Sea of ​​Japan, which ensures that Russia’s sea outlets to the Pacific Ocean can not limited by climate.

It is precisely for these reasons that the former Soviet Union ignored Japan's request for the return of the "four northern islands".Naturally, it is impossible for Japan to directly use force against the Soviet Union to regain these islands.Now, taking advantage of the decline of the Russian economy, the Japanese actually proposed to exchange the southern Kuril Islands for yen loans.

"Director Pewzin, you don't want to tell me that the Russian government is ready to agree to the Japanese request?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Puyuzin nodded slightly and said, "That's right, that's exactly what they mean."

"This is drinking poison to quench thirst!" Lin Zhenhua said, "You can earn money when you run out of money, but if you throw away something like territory, you have no chance to get it back. This is a decision made by some fool. How can such a request be agreed? ?”

"Russia's economy is currently very difficult. If we can't get loans from abroad, then Russia's economy may go bankrupt completely. Now those people in the government have nothing to do. Let alone the South Kuril Islands, the Japanese want the entire Kansai Chaga Peninsula, I guess those people will agree." Piyuzin said calmly.

It stands to reason that the negotiations with the Japanese on the issue of the South Kuril Islands are classified as Russia's confidential matters, and Pyuzin should not have disclosed them to a Chinese like Lin Zhenhua.But he also knew that it would not be easy for Lin Zhenhua to cooperate with him if he did not come up with some real things to tell Lin Zhenhua.To take a step back, even if Pjuzin doesn't expose this matter, the "free" media will expose this matter in a few days.I don't know what kind of magical powers these media have. It seems that Russia has nothing to hide from them.

"I heard that the U.S. government is already planning to rescue Russia? Why don't you wait for the U.S. rescue funds?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Puyuzin smiled and did not answer, but the mocking smile on his face said everything clearly.As a security officer, he was still able to learn some inside information.The rescue promised by the United States, Britain, France and other countries is still a pie on paper so far. Not to mention Piuzin doesn't believe it, even Gaidar has begun to be a little disappointed.If this were not the case, they would not have rushed to discuss the issue of returning the four islands with the Japanese.

"Director Pewzin, are you going to change this matter?" Lin Zhenhua continued to ask.

Pewzin asked rhetorically, "I think the Chinese don't want Japan to take back the South Kuril Islands, do they?"

Lin Zhenhua was silent. He had to admit that Pyujin had handled his psychology very well.If it was changed to another matter, maybe Lin Zhenhua would still have to negotiate the price with Pewzin, but when it comes to Japan's issues, Lin Zhenhua and Pyzin became comrades-in-arms in the trenches, and their goals were the same , that is, the Japanese cannot be allowed to succeed.

Russia's occupation of the South Kuril Islands is equivalent to strangling the top of the Japanese. If the Japanese want to act rashly, they must worry about the threat from the north.If the South Kuril Islands are returned to Japan, there will be a buffer zone between Japan and Russia, and Japan has the initiative in this zone, which can in turn threaten Russia.Without the worries of the north, Japan can be more unscrupulous in the southwest, which is very detrimental to China.

Even if Japan's military threat to China is not considered, Lin Zhenhua is unwilling to see the Japanese take back the South Thousand Islands purely from the perspective of national sentiment.It is undeniable that Lin Zhenhua is a cynical youth with strong anti-Japanese sentiments in his bones.

"If Russia can obtain funds from other channels to alleviate the current economic difficulties, then I hope to persuade the president to reject the Japanese threat. But if the funds cannot be implemented, then even if it is poison, the president will have to drink it Yes," said Pyuzin frankly.

Lin Zhenhua began to understand what Pewzin was thinking, and he tentatively asked: "Director Pewzin, you mean that you want to get funds from China, but you don't want to deal with the Chinese government, is that true? "

Pew Jin said: "That's exactly the case, so I hope to cooperate with private entrepreneurs like Mr. Lin."

It is clear that the Gaidar government is afraid and unwilling to cooperate closely with the Chinese government in order to show favor to the West.Pyuzin had no choice but to turn to Lin Zhenhua for help, hoping to solve Russia's immediate difficulties through him and through private channels.Lin Zhenhua has already expressed his attitude before that he believes that a Russia with certain strength is more beneficial to China. In this way, it will be difficult for him to refuse Pyuzin's request.

What's more, the thing that Puyujin asked him for help was his ambition to attack the Japanese, which was also a reason that Lin Zhenhua could not refuse.

"Mr. Puyuzin, how much money do you think Russia needs to get through the current predicament?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Pewzin said: "We have calculated that it will take about 50 billion to 100 billion US dollars to alleviate Russia's current difficulties. As for the future, more funds are needed."

In 1992, the exchange rate between the RMB and the U.S. dollar had been adjusted to the level of 1 U.S. dollar to 5.5 yuan. If you want to raise 50 billion to 100 billion U.S. dollars, it is equivalent to a scale of 300 billion to 600 billion yuan. Such a large sum Where can Lin Zhenhua raise funds?

Pewzin seemed to see Lin Zhenhua's hesitation, and he said: "Mr. Lin, of course I know that it is difficult to raise these funds by relying on your own business alone. However, I heard that your relationship in China It is very extensive, especially the relationship with the military is very close. Think about it, can you solve these funds through these relationships of yours?"

military!Lin Zhenhua was taken aback for a moment, he raised his eyes, and met a meaningful look from Puyuzin.Lin Zhenhua suddenly realized, he understood what Pyuzin meant.

Yes, in order to avoid suspicion, the Russian government is currently inconvenient to have too many entanglements with the Chinese government, but there is absolutely no obstacle to non-governmental exchanges.As long as Lin Zhenhua can put forward what the Chinese government wants in the name of the people, and Pewzin beats the side drum again, the Russian government will definitely be willing to turn a blind eye or close one eye.This move is called saving the country by curves, and it is estimated that Puyujin has also seen model plays such as "Shajiabang", and has a deep understanding of this.

　Let me explain again that the novel is just unofficial history and should not be taken seriously.Regarding the details of Sino-Russian cooperation after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, I strongly recommend everyone to buy a physical book "Sunset Komsomolsk".The author is PUPU, the leader of the military circle that Chengzi admires very much. As a person who experienced the introduction of Russian equipment in China, what he wrote is extremely authoritative.
