Chapter 2 Big Shots
In a world where the strong prey on the weak, weakness itself is a sin. The two ideas are opposite, and no one is right or wrong. Either the Soviet Union falls or the United States falls, and there is absolutely no third way for you to choose.
A phone ringing interrupted Selov's imagination. The old-fashioned phone sound made Selov stunned for a moment before he realized. While answering the phone, he did not forget to take the time to look at the structure of the phone, which felt very fresh.
"Comrade Yuri!" Shelov was stunned for a moment before remembering that this was his name. However, the classic image of a big bald head flashed in the red alert.
"It's me, what are your instructions?" It's not that Selov is polite, but now he is a Sibei product. He can't remember who the person's voice belongs to? As he spoke, Selov's head became dizzy and had to put his hands on the table so that he could maintain balance.
"There are comrades in the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League to come to us for inspection, which is your position in itself!" The loud voice over there paused, as if he was afraid, and his tone was mixed with some impatientness. "In short, let comrades from Moscow not find some problems in us!"
The dizziness gradually faded, and Selov calmed down and said, "I understand. I will definitely let the comrades in Moscow have a good taste of the scenery of the Caspian Sea!"
"I hope so..." As he spoke, the phone number there had been hung up, leaving Selov holding the phone here.
"It seems that my boss is not a very easy-to-talk person!" Shelov touched his chin. After a short dizziness, he had already remembered who the person on the phone! Azerbaijan's first secretary, Nikola Vladimir?
After thinking about it carefully, Selov did not find this person in his memory of his previous life. It is obvious that the General Secretary should have fallen into various ** groups during the Khrushchev period, otherwise he would have been removed directly after Stalin's death. Of course, there is another possibility, that is, he was promoted, but he did not have the famous names in Selov's memory of his previous life.
But by the way, who is the person who can make Nikola Vladimir a headache? Selov just heard the fear in Nikola Vladimir's words clearly, and seemed to be a little disdainful. Then that person is definitely not something that Nikola Vladimir, who are loyal to Stalin's route, can be favored by Selov, so he kicked Selov and asked him to deal with it.
Not likeable in character? The Communist Youth League? Xie Luov was suddenly shocked at this time, "It can't be him, right? It seems that he is really well treated this time! He is really not a person who is easy to contact..."
There were many arrogant people in the entire Soviet Union, and there were even more people with corpses. Unlike other officials who had little in their minds except Mazhe, Xie Lieping instilled his strong style into the ruling style from beginning to end. However, he, who has always been open and upright, did not take the last step and fell to the hands of the mediocre Brezhnev. The mediocre talent he mentioned was at most Brezhnev, who could only control one state at most, but eventually controlled the Soviet Union for eighteen years.
Regarding Brezhnev, Selov only said one thing, mediocre and avoided countless political struggles. He became the supreme leader of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union because of his incompetence. He cultivated a huge bureaucratic group, and finally this bureaucratic group buried the Soviet Union with his own hands.
Seeing Xie Lieping's hairstyle, Xie Luov suddenly felt a little funny. He didn't expect that Xie Lieping's aesthetic style was very similar to the founding leader of the Republic. He kept smiling. Xie Luov stepped forward and shook hands with Xie Lieping who had just got off the plane, and said, "Welcome from Moscow to Baku to inspect. If you have enough time, please stay here more. Believe me, you will fall in love with the beautiful Azerbaijan. The Caspian Sea scenery here is rare in the Soviet Union!"
Xie Lieping's straightforwardness made Xie Lieping feel a little favor. Xie Lieping himself likes direct people very much, which has a lot to do with his personality. He who doesn't laugh often also smiles at this time, "All are comrades in the same system, so don't be too polite to Comrade Xie Lieping."
It can be said that the Communist Youth League has things that the Party has, the Organization Department, the Propaganda Department, the Literature Department, and the Sports Department. Basically, it is the specific work of the Communist Youth League in joining the Republic. Of course, cultivating youth is the most important work of the Communist Youth League. The National University of Baku, the National University of Petroleum, the National University of Economics of Azerbaijan, the Azerbaijan Medical University, and the four most important universities in Azerbaijan have departments of the Communist Youth League running.
At this time, Selov was walking along the campus of the National Petroleum University with Xie Lieping. Although the group was in the school, it did not attract attention. The male students were doing exercises, and there were many students who vented their excess energy on sports equipment. Maybe they would become unparalleled sports talents in the future.
"Look, how young they are!" Xie Lieping pointed to a group of boys on the horizontal bar in the distance and sighed. Xie Luof looked at the fingers. The young man's smooth movements made him envious. No wonder there was a period of time when gymnastics was called the socialist movement in the United States. It was understandable that the Soviet Union's popularity in gymnastics was invincible.
"That's right, it's really enviable!" Selov said sincerely. He thought of himself. If there was another chance, he would definitely stay in the campus environment for a while.
Xie Lieping wondered for a while, but she didn't think much about it. At this time, Xie Lieping really felt like a university life and was completely relaxed. When talking to Xie Lieping and his group, he looked like an ordinary student.
"I forgot that Comrade Xielov is still very young and has a more common language with these peers!" Xie Lieping quipped at the people behind him.
The random topic turned around and seemed to say something casually, "In the future, many talents that countries need will come out here!"
This sentence surprised Selov. Of course, universities are a place to cultivate talents for the country. This is true for all universities. Why did they say so abruptly?
National University of Petroleum? Shelov suddenly felt that he had found the answer. Baku began industrial oil production in the 1970s. At the end of the century, it became the Transcaucasus industrial center and a world-famous oil base. It has 22 major refining bases and the oil industry is developed. At the beginning of the century, the socialist Baku Commune was established.
Thinking of this, Selov replied, "Yes, these students have a bright future. Maybe the entire Soviet Union is their stage! You may see them anywhere in the future..."
Sherepin was very satisfied with Selov's answer. As Sherepin's identity, of course he knew that in 1940, Baku's oil production reached its peak, accounting for 71.5% of the total Soviet output at that time. Since then, Baku's crude oil production began to decline, but until 1950, it was still the largest oil field in the Soviet Union, and oil production accounted for 40% of the total Soviet output. However, in just a few years, due to the increasing decline in reserves, crude oil production declined after a total of 1.2 billion tons of cumulative mining, and the production situation took a sharp turn. Although the trend has just begun, the top leaders in Moscow have turned to the next oil field that can support Soviet industry.
However, although Baku's importance will decline, Baku still has many things that have attracted attention from the leadership far away in Moscow. As the earliest oil base in the Soviet Union, it is natural for many industrial sectors in Baku to be closely related to oil. For example, petrochemicals, petroleum machinery and other industries are quite developed. These industrial sectors and related university facilities will surely become the pioneers and backbone forces of other oil fields.
In addition to oil and gas mining, Baku has gradually developed and grown in other industries such as machinery manufacturing, metallurgy, mining, machine tools, motors, shipbuilding, automobile repair, cement and building materials, fire-fighting equipment, etc.; light industry has also grown from scratch and has become an important light industrial base in the Transcaucasus region. Carpet and food industries are quite developed, and the granular black caviar and caviar they produce are well-known worldwide. Oil development has also promoted the development of military-industrial enterprises, transportation, urban transportation, residential construction, commerce, and services. It can be said that once oil production transfers to other cities, Baku does not need to worry about recession, and Baku has spare no effort to support the construction of other new oil cities.
I just don’t know if what I will support at that time is the Volga-Ural Oilfield with the second Baku or the Tyumen Oilfield with the third Baku.
"Comrade Xielov, these graduates may need you to worry too much!" As Xie Lieping spoke, everyone had already visited the playground. Xie Lieping was fine, but the officials in their fifties and sixties could not stand it. After all, the temperature in Baku and Moscow was very different. Many Moscow officials who were accustomed to the severe cold were not adapted to the climate around the Caspian Sea.
"Comrade Xie Lieping, let's go and have a rest. I believe that your memories on campus have been long ago!" Xie Luof smiled and said, "How about we solve the food problem in the school cafeteria today?"
"This proposal is very novel!" Xie Lieping said enthusiastically, "Comrades, let us experience the life of our youth together!"
"Which life did we have like this when we were young!"
An official behind shook his head, and Selov immediately saw a person about fifty years old but looked sixty years old, and his head was very obvious to support the central government, and he was quite premature.
This face made Selov feel a little respect. How much pressure can this make a person become such a virtue?
