Big Time 1958

Chapter 425: Pepsi

After    left Suslov's house, Serov couldn't hide his joy, at least he got support from Suslov. In his heart, he certainly hoped that the big ship Sheleping would not capsize, but in the event that the ship capsized, he also hoped that a big boss would cover him. As long as Brezhnev begins to have the tendency of personal leadership, I believe that other members of the Central Presidium will definitely think of him. You have to get through the years in peace.

  This plan can be implemented as long as it waits for Suslov’s approval. I believe this should not be a problem. In essence, this is still the infiltration of the enemy's public opinion, not that he has reached out to Suslov's domain. It should not be as disgusting as Andropov did to Suslov.

   Andropov's lofty ideal is to one day succeed Suslov and take charge of the party's ideological and morphological power. However, fate played a joke on him. Although he was neither a member of the Khrushchev line nor participated in the conspiracy to overthrow He, after He stepped down, Suslov, the leader of the CPSU in gray, insisted on expelling An from the Central Committee and letting this Future contenders go to the KGB. This is because there is no precedent for returning to the Party Central Committee from the KGB in the history of the Soviet Union.

Andropov left a sentence when he left the CPSU Central Committee and the Secretariat: "I want to come back." Sure enough, after Suslov's death, Andropov not only came back, but also sat in the Soviet Union. Slov's office eventually became the general secretary. However, it is still unknown whether Khrushchev will be coup d'etat. It seems that it is not easy for Suslov to expel Andropov from the Secretariat. The Secretariat is not what Suslov said. Khrushchev believed that he was willing to use Andropov to give Suslov eye drops.

"You can't think about these things, it's too complicated!" For Serov, the political circle at the top of the Soviet Union is extremely chaotic. It is impossible to make a simple judgment on who has a good relationship with whom. One thing is more certain, the current situation in the Soviet Union. The situation is fairly stable, of course it is stable, because he is now the chairman of the KGB, isn't the unstable slap in the face...

   As the chairman of the KGB, he always had to submit security reports to the Kremlin for a while, so he always said that Sherepin and Semichasny always ran to the Kremlin for no reason. Now this work has been done by Serov. He is now starting to draft security reports on the situation at home and abroad in the Soviet Union at regular intervals. Of course, Serov will definitely not do it himself, but let his secretary Servanov do the drafting.

"The security situation abroad is like this. We are still confronting Europe. Generally speaking, it is relatively stable, and there is no unexpected situation. Among them, the development of the Communist Party of Western Europe is still not out of proportion. After Turkey expelled the Greeks back to Constantinople, the Communist Party of Greece protested and helped the returning Greeks live and work in peace! It seems that their strength is gradually recovering..." Although he did not write his own report, he ordered it all. Why didn't Serov remember that he had said so much and asked Servanov to write it?

   And how long was the security report that Sherepin and Semichasny had in front of them? Serov doesn't know this, and now he suspects that the two seniors will not write the report too long, because they all wrote it by themselves.

While sighing, he turned the security report to the next page, and continued to read, "The struggle situation in the East is that the Chinese comrades have spent a lot of effort in exporting revolutions, and the communist movement has flourished in Southeast Asian countries. At the same time, the amount of China's aid to foreign countries is expanding, and the number of countries involved is increasing! Among them, the security situation in Vietnam is deteriorating, and according to our KGB assessment, the hope that it will turn into another Korean war is growing!"

"Stop, will China's aid to other countries become a burden on their countries? Also, please explain China's situation in Vietnam!" The security report is far less than that of Serov, and everything has to be written.

"China's targets are mainly concentrated in Africa and Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia can be understood as China's efforts to crack down on American forces, and for Africa's assistance, I personally think it is to break the current isolation situation!" Shelov paused and said, "It should be It is to break the wave of anti-China that has been set off around the world after the Sino-Indian war!"

  In the online public opinion of later generations, China's diplomatic isolation was attributed to the blockade of the United States and the Soviet Union. This is only an external cause, and there is no specific blockade action on the Soviet side. In fact, China's diplomatic isolation is very simple, Sino-Indian war! This can be seen by Serov from the 75-nation joint statement to support India. Even the Arab countries support India. This kind of isolation atmosphere can only be compared with the Soviet Union's war in Afghanistan.

   This wave of global opposition to China, does China dare to say that it really doesn’t care? In fact, it still cares, otherwise it will not start a diplomatic breakthrough after the Sino-Indian war.

  The sudden increase in China's foreign aid since the 1960s is completely understandable. That is, to break through diplomatically, Europe and the United States plus the countries of the US-Soviet bloc should not be considered. Who will help whom? Therefore, China weighed it and decided to set the direction of the picture in Africa, because it is relatively poor there, and a small investment can have a big impact.

   "As for the analysis of China's aid in Africa, the report is here!" Serov put down the security report in his hand, and turned to the reports of the French and British African Divisions of the KGB First General Directorate for Khrushchev to read. Several modes of aid have emerged, ranging from the military to industry, to agriculture, education, medical care, and more.

  The evolution of China's aid policy to African countries. China's military assistance to African countries, analyzes how Chinese military experts transform African countries' "capitalist army" into "people's army" in Africa. The focus of the later narrative is how China has practiced in the construction of complete industrial and transportation projects in African countries.

   also pays attention to China's agricultural aid to African countries, and examines the process and results of China's attempt to transplant its own agricultural model to Africa through agricultural aid. Discuss China's educational assistance to African countries, focusing on the process and results of China's training of African students and interns. The content of medical assistance focuses on China's medical assistance to African countries by dispatching medical teams. The sanitation approach based on cooperative medical care has been practiced by means of doctors, setting up clinics, medical tours, and training local doctors.

Export China's political, economic and even military development model, and expand China's political influence in Africa, so that African countries can learn from China's path, so as to consolidate the legitimacy of the Communist Party's domestic governance and compete with the United States and the Soviet Union and other Cold War opponents in Africa. Competition is the core interest of China's aid to Africa.

"It seems that our Dongfang comrades have a lot of thought, and they are desperate to break through the diplomatic dilemma! Yuri, how do you think we should deal with it?" Khrushchev also knew the diplomatic dilemma China was facing. It is in solidarity with China, but as most countries have expressed their support for India, the Soviet Union can only adopt a neutral attitude. The Soviet Union has its own national interests, and it is absolutely impossible for China to be hostile to so many countries because of its support, and China would not do the same.

"Although China is a little more extreme than us, it is still a comrade in our camp, and China's participation is beneficial to us. At present, the biggest enemy is the United States. We and China are just a quarrel between brothers!" The report said, "In fact, the most troublesome in this situation is the Americans, especially the Americans in Vietnam..."

"Speaking of the Vietnamese, the Vietnamese comrades have asked us for assistance, but I have already refused. Now I have to take advantage of a little spare time to deal with our domestic problems. There is no time to confront the United States!" Khrushchev said. , and then wait for the more important report later.

   The domestic security report Serov did not read out, but directly let Khrushchev read it himself. In fact, to put it bluntly, the domestic security report is the KGB's supervision of the country, and it is actually an assessment of whether the current Soviet Union is stable. With Malenkov's precedent, the KGB has stricter supervision over the cadre group to prevent another Malenkov group from happening again.

"What's unusual, the KGB must eliminate danger in the bud, understand?" Khrushchev nodded and said, Comrade First Secretary is also a man with a lot of nerves, how can he not know that he will definitely play the cadre rotation. Dissatisfied? It's just that Khrushchev never dreamed that a group of young cadres he promoted would betray him.

"Understood, no one will be out of our sight. Our anti-rebel workers will keep the country in a state of security! Once there is an undercurrent, the first secretary will definitely know immediately!" Shelov let out a sigh of relief, finally It's really hard work to report this more than 30-page report. It may be the reason why Servanov has just become Serov's secretary. In order to express his ability, he created such a long security report. Next time, he must be told that he can't do it.

"Well, pay close attention to the movements at home and abroad. The current situation is rather complicated. The KGB must do a good job of security!" Khrushchev emphasized, "Donald Kent seems to want to inspect our Soviet Union. This person's safety It's up to you!"

   "Understood, I will personally deploy this work!" Sheloff agreed simply, Donald Kent, the general manager of Pepsi, the head of the secret police and capitalists have always had a common language. (To be continued~^~)
