Resource Tycoon Reborn

Early the next morning, Fang Mingyuan was woken up by the ringing of the phone while he was still sleeping. He was still a little confused and just picked up the phone when he heard Belevsky's urgent voice coming from the other side. "Fang,

We can get to your hotel in fifteen minutes!"

"Old Wilder!" Fang Mingyuan's mind immediately woke up. He looked at his watch and said with a bit of annoyance, "It's only seven o'clock in the morning!" This old guy doesn't know that disturbing other people's dreams is a sin.

?

"I know, but at eleven o'clock this morning, I have to rush back to Moscow!" Belevsky said urgently, "Before I leave, let's settle the things that can be settled."

"Ah? What happened?" Fang Mingyuan was also surprised. Yesterday, Belevsky said that he could stay in Vladivostok for three days. How could he rush back to Moscow in less than one day? Could it be that he could stay in Vladivostok for three days?

Say, what big thing happened in Moscow? You can’t even make a phone call, so Belevsky has to go back in person!

"It's not convenient to talk on the phone. I'll be at the hotel soon!" Belevsky hung up the phone. Fang Mingyuan quickly got up to freshen up and called Lin Rong again. Chen Zhong and others had already gotten up.

As soon as this was done, Belevsky and his party came to his guest room in a hurry. After an inspection by the accompanying professionals, it was finally left for Fang Mingyuan to communicate with Belevsky.

"A call came from Moscow in the early morning. One of our country's attack nuclear submarines had some problems while cruising, causing seven deaths. During the emergency refloating process, it also overturned a Norwegian yacht, killing three people and leaving one missing!

Your Excellency, the President, wants me to return to Moscow urgently to discuss countermeasures!" Belevsky said straight to the point. Anyway, it is difficult to hide this kind of thing, especially for someone like Fan Mingyuan who is already in the upper class. As long as he wants to know, he can

There are countless ways to find out. Instead, it would be better to tell him openly.

"A nuclear attack submarine capsized a Norwegian yacht?" Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but be startled for a moment when he heard this. This is such a rare thing. The people on the yacht were also too disappointed. This kind of thing has only happened once in several years. How can it happen?

It fell on their heads!

Russia inherited most of the naval strength of the former Soviet Union, which naturally included a huge fleet of submarines. In the 1950s, the United States and the former Soviet Union began to build nuclear-powered submarines. By the 1970s, the number of nuclear submarines in the two countries was roughly the same. By the 1980s, the number of nuclear submarines in the two countries was roughly the same.

In the 1900s, the size of the former Soviet Union's naval fleet greatly exceeded that of the United States and reached its peak. Its number of nuclear submarines ranked first in the world, with more than 250 ships, accounting for one-half of the world's total!

Its number of nuclear submarines ranks first in the world, and its number of nuclear submarine navigation and shipwrecks also ranks first in the world. From the 1970s to the end of this century, judging from the accidents disclosed in the world, it has included all the sunken nuclear submarines in the world.

.

By the mid-1980s, a large number of nuclear submarines had begun to age. According to the usual practice of the former Soviet Union, these submarines would be forced to retire when their fuel assemblies were severely damaged and it was difficult to replenish fuel. However, the sudden disintegration of the Soviet Union and the subsequent

The shock therapy has made the finances of the Russian government that inherited them extremely tight, and the level of military expenditures has shrunk greatly. These undersea weapons, which require huge amounts of money to maintain every year to operate, have become unbearable for Russia's finances.

Gold-eating beast! So a large number of former Soviet-era submarines began to be decommissioned and scrapped in the early 1990s. In Fan Mingyuan’s memory, according to World Military Magazine, the total number of decommissioned nuclear submarines of the Russian Navy in the previous life was as high as more than 210. And even

Those submarines that remained are now suffering from constant accidents due to various reasons such as insufficient maintenance of the ships and insufficient training of the crews.

Therefore, it would not be surprising at all if a Russian nuclear submarine had an accident.

Belevsky couldn't help but let out a long sigh. This was the point where he had reached the extreme point. The attack nuclear submarine didn't know why. Two steam condensers suddenly exploded, and the steam entered the submarine's turbine to generate electricity.

The engine room was damaged, causing eight crew members on the ship, including the captain, to die of suffocation or burns. The nuclear submarine also had to be refloated urgently to prevent a bigger accident. Who would have thought that the house leaked and it crashed again during the continuous rain.

Three people died and one person went missing on a Norwegian yacht. The missing person has not been found yet. It is estimated that the situation is more serious than the other.

The trouble doesn't end there. The owner of the yacht is a Norwegian newspaper tycoon. Among the three people who died were his young son and daughter-in-law, and the missing person was his younger brother. This suddenly stirred up a hornet's nest. Norway

The government contacted the Russian government as soon as possible and demanded justice.

But can this be blamed on the Russian officers and soldiers on nuclear submarines? Because the levels and models of Russian submarines are too complex; the safety standards of equipment are low; the quality of personnel is poor; the daily management system and the repair and maintenance of submarines are lacking, etc. Large and small

Small accidents can be said to occur in endlessly. Many naval officers and soldiers regard submarines as movable coffins in the sea, because once an accident occurs, they may all be buried at the bottom of the sea. This has too many precedents in the former Soviet Union!

Such a big accident occurred, and the captain unfortunately died in the line of duty. It is reasonable for everyone to emerge in a panic and not notice the situation on the sea. Who could have imagined that by such a coincidence, on the boundless sea, there would be something like this?

It will collide with the ship! It can only be said that they are really unlucky. Such a small probability event actually caused them to collide!

It can be said that the Kremlin takes this accident very seriously. Recently, Russian leaders have also realized that over the years, because the navy has not received enough military spending, a large number of naval ships have been decommissioned, resulting in a significant decline in the navy's combat capabilities.

In fact, it has seriously weakened Russia's influence on the international diplomatic stage. In 1998, the Americans bombed Iraq despite Russia's reactionary unilateral actions, which caused great dissatisfaction in the Kremlin. The then President even ordered

Parts of the navy, air force and nuclear weapons forces have been put on alert. However, the United States has long understood that the Kremlin and the Russian army are now just paper tigers, and has simply ignored them.

This year, NATO launched air strikes on Yugoslavia, and the Kremlin also threatened to dispatch the Black Sea Fleet to the Mediterranean, but in the end it was anticlimactic and had no impact on the Americans. Under the tremendous pressure of NATO's continuous air strikes, Yugoslavia passed through Russia.

Thanks to the good offices and mediation of Finland and other countries, Yugoslavia finally softened its position. On June 3, Yugoslavia President Milosevic accepted a proposal led by Russian envoy Chernomyrdin and Finnish President Ahtisaari.

According to the peace agreement co-written by US Deputy Secretary of State Talbot, the multinational force stationed in Kosovo will be established in accordance with the spirit of the United Nations Charter. The exact nature of Kosovo’s future autonomous status will be determined by the United Nations Security Council. Arrangements for the return of refugees to their homes will also be determined by the United Nations.

Implemented under the supervision of the High Commissioner for Refugees. On June 4, the Parliament of the Republic of Serbia, Federal Republic of Yugoslavia passed a resolution accepting the above-mentioned agreement.

Given that Yugoslavia can be said to be Russia's main ally in Eastern Europe, the large-scale NATO air strikes on Yugoslavia led by the US military have actually triggered Russia's national security considerations, and its severity is far greater than the air strikes on Iraq. This result is undoubtedly

This has greatly weakened the strength of the already declining Yugoslavia. And NATO's indiscriminate bombing has set back the Yugoslavia's economy for more than ten years!

Therefore, in the Russian military, there is now a view that in order to curb the activity of NATO warships in the Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf, and in order to maintain Russia's inherent sphere of influence in these areas, it is necessary to send warships back to the Mediterranean. If during the Kosovo crisis,

There are several Russian nuclear submarines in the Mediterranean. NATO and the United States may not dare to launch air strikes, at least they dare not send aircraft carriers to launch air strikes from the sea! But now that something like this has happened, I am afraid that a lot more problems will arise!

"That's really a trouble!" Fang Mingyuan murmured. No wonder the Russian President was eager to recruit Belevsky and his staff back. Of course, he didn't completely believe what Belevsky said, but there was no need to say it.

Just come out.

"Old Wilder, well, since your time is so urgent, let's not talk nonsense. Will my proposal yesterday come true? If there is room for negotiation, then I will send someone to come and let us have detailed negotiations. If

If there is no room for negotiation, then I will just come to Vladivostok and take a tour to see the current situation in Varyag. On the Japanese side, I will also participate in the negotiations for Guo's Shipping Group to purchase oil tankers!" Fang Mingyuan said as he dug out his wallet.

He took out the checkbook, wrote the amount in a flash, pulled it off and presented it to Belevsky.

"Ten million dollars!" Belevsky looked at Fang Mingyuan in surprise. What did he mean by the money? Could it be that he planned to bribe himself?

"This is for your Excellency, the President, as my condolences for the unfortunate tragedy that happened to your country. Of course, due to some reasons, I will not recognize this donation to the outside world!" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "It's not much money, anyway.

It’s also my intention. I can’t let you go to Vladivostok in vain, no, how many times have you been back... Haha.”

Although Fan Mingyuan did not continue talking, Belevsky already understood it clearly. He came to Vladivostok this time, but he came to raise money on the order of the president. Although the incident happened suddenly, he had to rush back to Moscow immediately.

, but if you can bring back 10 million US dollars, it is somewhat of an achievement, isn't it? Today's Russia is no longer the rich and powerful Soviet era, and these 10 million US dollars can seriously do a lot of things.
