Chapter 217 Report to the superiors After Kovlevich arrived at Leo Gago's office, he told him the details of the negotiations with Lin Chenran. As Leo Gago listened, a look of shock gradually appeared on his face. "what?" "Cooperation on the Arctic route?" “And it’s an Arctic route that is open all year round?” Leo Gago couldn't help but gasp, frightened by Lin Chenran's grand blueprint plan. After being shocked, he quickly calmed down and began to think about the feasibility of this plan. The more Leo Gago thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. If the Arctic route can really be open all year round, it will definitely be an achievement that will attract worldwide attention.
Lin Chenran was very clever in making their Far East Fleet one of the executors, which made the operability of the process greatly increased. Leo Gago secretly suppressed his inner greed, looked at Kovlevich calmly and asked: "Kovlevich, what do you think about this?" Kovlevich secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had just seen the greed that flashed in Leo Gago's eyes, and he knew that his boss had been tempted, but he pretended to be calm. So, he said, "General Gago, I think this is worth a try. Although Lin Chenran did not reveal all the details of the plan, from his description, this is indeed a plan with great potential." "The most important thing is that our operability is huge." Kovlevich gave a mysterious smile. Leo Gago understood instantly. Indeed, the operability is huge. "Kovlevich, next you will discuss the details of the cooperation with Lin Chenran and the benefits we will gain from it." "I will report this to the capital later and ask the senior leaders to consider the pros and cons." When Leo Gago saw that his subordinates were very confident about the project, he also felt confident. The Arctic route has always been open, but the profits earned by the Russian bear are very thin. This is mainly due to the powerful deterrent power of the Russian bear and various restrictions from Western countries. More importantly, the Arctic routes are uncertain and their safety cannot be guaranteed. You may encounter icy roads at any time and anywhere. Although the cost of crossing the Suez Canal is high, it is relatively safe. This is also the reason why other large cargo ships prefer to take the Suez Canal instead of the Arctic route. Safety is of utmost importance. A large cargo ship carries cargo worth at least several million, sometimes tens of millions. The boatman will certainly not take risks easily.
If the Arctic route is planned and icebreakers lead the way, safety will be greatly improved. At that time, large cargo ships will choose the Arctic route instead of the Suez Canal. Everyone knows that it is very difficult for super-large cargo ships to pass through the Suez Canal. Every time they pass through, they have to be very careful. If they are not careful, it may get stuck, causing the entire canal to be blocked. …… Leo Gago was filled with anticipation and excitement as he thought about the huge wealth he might gain in the future. He seemed to see countless green dollar bills flying towards his pocket like little birds with wings, making his wealth continue to grow. The idea made him extremely excited, and he even couldn't wait to take action. Kovlevich responded with a smile: "Yes, General Gago, I will discuss the relevant matters with Lin Chenran first and wait for the capital to send a professional negotiation team." Although Kovlevich and Lin Chenran have discussed the issue of the Arctic route, this only involves the general situation. The specific distribution of benefits still needs to wait for the capital to send someone to determine. Kovlevich left the office of the commander of the Far Eastern Fleet, leaving Leo Gago anxiously reporting important information about the Arctic routes to his superiors, who would then report it to the capital. Leo Gago anxiously awaited feedback from the capital of the Russian bear. …… At the same time, Lin Chenran, who returned to the 077 Mechanical Arsenal at the Russian Bear’s base from Kovlevich’s private residence, started negotiating with Situ Hua. Situ Hua gave a thumbs up and praised him: "Lin boy, I don't think you can easily control Kovlevich without my help." “The Yangtze River’s waves behind push forward the waves ahead, and the new generation is better than the old.” Lin Chenran scratched the back of his head with a smile and said modestly: "It's just so-so!" "It's mainly because of our cooperation. Kovlevich has clearly stepped into the big network of interests that I have carefully laid out. He can't break free at all and can only let me control him." "Continuing to gain greater benefits is the only way out for Kovlevich. When the truth comes out, he can take the huge sum of money and go to other countries to live in anonymity and live a carefree life." From the very beginning when he cooperated with Lin Chenran to resell his country's assets, Kovlevich embarked on a path of no return. If someone asked Kovlevich whether he regretted it, he would certainly say so without hesitation. There are no assumptions in life. Once you make a choice, you must bear the consequences. At this moment, Situ Hua stared at the stunningly young Lin Chenran in front of him and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. In his eyes, Lin Chenran is undoubtedly the leader among the younger generation, and no one can compare with him. Situ Hua secretly sighed: "This generation of the Lin family is really full of talents, which makes people envious!" Lin Chenran's brother was also highly regarded in the Yan Kingdom's army, especially in the previous war against the Monkey Kingdom, where he performed outstandingly and bravely, and was therefore received and commended by senior leaders. Lin Chenran is even more brilliant in the military industry. His 077 Mechanical Military Factory has become the "secret weapon" of the Yan State Army. Lin Chenran said confidently: "Kovlevich and the forces behind him are extremely greedy. I don't believe they will be indifferent to the Arctic route project." This can be seen from the very beginning of the cooperation.
Lin Chenran didn't believe that they were not tempted. After his explanation, Situ Hua nodded repeatedly, agreeing with the other party's statement. Although Situ Hua had not had much contact with Kovlevich before, he had "traveled" a lot and could see the other party's general background at a glance. Now Lin Chenran and others can only wait for Kovlevich's reply. …… The top leaders far away in the capital of the Soviet Union also received reports from Leo Gago. This report has attracted great attention from senior executives. They quickly convened an emergency meeting to discuss cooperation between the "Arctic Route" and Yan Country. "Arctic route?" a senior executive asked in surprise. Another senior official continued, "Cooperate with Yan Country? This is an important decision." “Unimpeded access all year round? This means huge business opportunities and economic potential!” said the third senior executive excitedly. "We are going to create a new prosperous waterway!" said the fourth senior executive confidently. The top leaders in the capital of the Russian Federation were shocked and excited by the news. They realized this could be a rare opportunity. (End of this chapter)
