War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 302
"You were just kissed by the mouth on the brown bear's ass!"

Ji Ma gestured his middle finger angrily, then sighed, and said with a bitter face, "I used to be just a hunter, working for half a year and half a year as a hunter, although I learned a lot at Hongqi Forest Farm under your influence , but managing two such large camps has long been beyond my ability."

"You can let."

"Let Alili manage it? Or Misha?"

Jima took off the cigarette clipped to his ear, sniffed it under his nose, and said with a hint of nostalgia in his tone, "The farthest city Alili and Misha have ever been to in their life is to go to Kazan to go to school. I remember the jokes made by these two primitive people when I took the two idiots on the subway for the first time, so who do you think can manage such a big two camps?
Not to mention this, so many guests sent by Aurora at one time this time have already made us feel terrified.If there is no accident this time, it is not difficult to imagine that there will be only a lot more tourists in the next winter, so what about next year?What about the year after?With us laymen, no matter how hard we try, there will be an accident one day. "

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Wei Ran became more and more confused.

"Most of the equity in this camp belongs to Hongqi Forest Farm"

Jima threw the cigarette in his hand on the table, "But obviously, regardless of Karp or Teacher Daria, or even Teacher Gorman and Anna who followed us to familiarize themselves with the flight route, they must not be interested in managing the affairs of these two camps. .

Even half a year ago, Karp told me that they just need to get back the money they bought the two camps, and these rich bastards don't even care about the profits here. "

Seeing that Wei Ran didn't speak, Jima took a deep breath and continued, "So Victor, I discussed with Alili and Misha, and we are going to take out 5% of the equity in these two camps and find professional people to come Run here. We hope you can recommend someone who is professional enough to take over the management of these two camps starting next year."

"Have any of you chosen?" Wei Ran asked, but he already guessed the answer in his heart.

"The best result is undoubtedly Ms. Zhou, after all, she is also one of the shareholders of this camp."

Jima looked at Wei Ran and said seriously, "Victor, I hope you can help persuade Ms. Zhou to take over the management and operation of these two camps."

"You didn't talk to my aunt directly?"

"What we can take out is only 5% at most."

Jima said with a bitter face, "I heard Mr. Nicholas talk about the scene when Ms. Zhou and Teacher Daria were negotiating about the Time Film Studio. Even Teacher Daria was not her opponent. She and I Let’s talk, I’m afraid I’m going to sell myself to work for her travel agency.”

Wei Ran couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, the last time the negotiation about Time Film Studio made his aunt famous, even Teacher Dalia praised her unceasingly.

"How is it? Do us this favor?" Jima looked at Wei Ran eagerly.

Wei Ran hesitated for a moment, took a sip from his teacup, and said with a smile, "Jima, there is actually a better candidate."

"A better candidate?" Ji Ma looked at Wei Ran suspiciously.

"How's Aurora?"

Wei Ran put down his teacup and explained, "She will graduate next summer, majoring in tourism management, and you can see her ability. The 5-odd tourists sent this time are definitely not her limit. But [-]% The equity is definitely a big enough temptation for her."

"How did I forget her!"

Ji Ma patted his forehead hard, but then asked worriedly, "But can she manage two such big camps well?"

"Have you forgotten who her mother is?"

Wei Ran continued to remind, "Even if she has no experience at first, there will definitely be someone to help her, right? And the most important thing is that she will come here soon, and then you can talk to her in person and ask Her idea, as long as she is interested, it is definitely more appropriate for her to convince my aunt than me."

"But will she be interested in our small place?" Jima frowned and began to set the threshold for himself.

"If that little bastard had no interest in this place, he would never have brought so many people here." Wei Ran said with certainty, he knew Sui Sui, that ghostly little money fan too well, she was almost a The most picky "tour group" in my aunt's travel agency.

"Victor, you have done me a great favor!" Jima said, and personally picked up the purple sand teapot that he did not know where to find, and filled Wei Ran's cup with fragrant tea.

"An extra reminder"

Wei Ran held the cup symbolically and said, "Whether I or Aurora, we are friends with you, Alili, and Misha, so."

"I know!"

Jima grabbed the topic without waiting for the former to finish, and said in a relaxed tone, "Victor, I really just want my friends to live a better life, so there is no deception or use in it. I'm here to find You talk about it because of these reasons, you just want to find someone you can trust."

"She won't let you down"

Wei Ran confidently made a guarantee for Suisui, and he pushed Suisui out, naturally he had his own considerations.

If auntie, the "elder", is allowed to participate in the management of this camp, then the nature of the camp will change in the future, but if Sui Sui is allowed to come, it will be another matter.Everyone is a joint venture of the nature of friends, but there will not be too many other elements mixed in.

After finishing the private chat between the two, Wei Ran and Jima brought the topic to the itinerary plan of these tourists.According to Sui Sui's request, the eighty-odd people will be divided into two groups, and they will move in the two camps respectively, and there will be a rotation in the middle.

To put it simply, people who go to the hot springs are basically there for taking pictures, hunting experiences, and the rare aurora, while those who come to the abandoned military base are mostly there to experience gun shooting.

For this reason, Ji Ma and Alili even specially invited a few friends with service experience to come over to help watch the venue to ensure safety. By the way, they can also teach some tactical moves that look fancy but are useless.

The group stayed in the abandoned military base for a long time, until the sky outside the window completely darkened. Then Gorman took the silly dog ​​who had a good relationship with him, and greeted Wei Ran and Jima to fly the plane in the night Lifted off, climbed over the Ural Mountains and returned to Inta.

I waited all night in the hotel arranged in advance by Alili. Early the next morning, Sui Sui, who was as arrogant as a handle on a certain mountain, also brought tour guides seconded from two parent travel agencies, and A large wave of tourists landed at Inta Airport.

Allowing this little thing to give him an overly enthusiastic hug from a sloth, Wei Ran waited until the other party landed on his feet again, and then asked helplessly in a low voice, "What's the fuss about you?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Sui Sui grabbed Wei Ran's arm and said in a low voice, "There are two idiots in the group who want to chase me, honestly act as a shield for me, scumbags."

"Which two idiots?" Wei Ran asked happily.

"The one in the yellow down jacket, and the one with the hair dyed blue, the two sea kings who are famous in our school." Sui Sui finished speaking with a look of disgust, and immediately raised the red tweeter that she had been holding all along, and greeted The guides she brought with them waited in line with their respective tourists.

Under Wei Ran's advance notice, Ji Ma and the others deliberately did not go up to help, but secretly observed Sui Sui's arrangement, evaluating the possibility of letting this little girl who has not yet graduated help them run two camps in the future.

Fortunately, Sui Sui, who had no idea that he was about to be entrusted with the task of heaven, did live up to expectations. In less than 10 minutes, he divided the 8-odd people into two equal teams and [-] groups, and arranged boarding by the way. Order.

It was also during this period of time that Wei Ran actually met acquaintances in this tour group. They were Chen Guangling who taught him how to play the piano and his son Chen Luoxiang, and they met briefly when he was learning the piano at the beginning of the year. On the one hand, Chen Guangling's wife.

"Mr. Chen, why are you here?" Wei Ran hurried up to say hello.

"Luo Xiang said that student Sui Sui organized a tour group, and it happens that there are people everywhere in the country, and the group of student Sui Sui is quite cheap, so why don't you just come and see what's new."

Chen Guangling with a bookish face said this, and turned to ask expectantly, "Wei Ran, is it true that Suisui said that you can shoot guns here? Any gun can be fired? Is there any AK?"

Seeing the father and son looking at him expectantly, Wei Ran nodded quickly while suppressing a smile, "Yes, there must be!"

"Brother, can the deer here really be killed casually?"

Chen Luoxiang, who was about the same age as Suisui, asked while wiping his fogged glasses. As for the traditional title in the other party's mouth, it was given by his father Chen Guangling when he was learning the piano in the first month.

"do not worry!"

Wei Ran patted his chest and made a promise, "Others don't dare to say it, and you will definitely let you beat a deer back then!"

"Dad, do you think reindeer antlers can be used to burn antler cream?" Chen Luoxiang asked a question that didn't go to the village or shop.

Looking at the father and son who began to discuss how to burn the antler cream in a low voice, Wei Ran shook his head dumbfounded, but Chen Guangling's wife looked familiar, and gently gave some small gifts to Wei Ran.

While they were chatting here, the tour guides and hunters had already boarded the four An-2 planes waiting side by side with the first four groups of passengers.

Looking at the talking and laughing passengers, and the three teachers standing at the door of the cabin who are both waiters and pilots, Wei Ran couldn't help but want to laugh, and then an inexplicable whiff of it came out of nowhere. Sense of desolation.

Those three teachers used to be the KGB of the KGB. It may not be an exaggeration to describe them as dragons and phoenixes. However, more than [-] years after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, these proud sons who once belonged to a certain red totalitarianism have been reduced to Greeting them with a smiling face, they drove an old plane that was in the same era as "running for a taxi".

Of course there are Ji Ma or my own favors in it, but if it weren't for the upheaval, no matter whether I or Ji Ma, how could I have the opportunity to talk to these people, and how could I make the other party willing to look at my face , "Condescending" to waste my time doing this kind of thing?

They should be like 007 in the movie, flying helicopters and fighter jets to fight wits and bravery. They should wear decent suits, hold exquisite red wine glasses in a bustling city, and get important information while talking and laughing.

Instead of coming to Inta in the cold weather like now, she wouldn't happily put on the Soviet Air Force uniform just because of Sui Sui's sudden imagination, stand beside the old An-2 plane, and touch her with one hand. Looking at the remnants of the Soviet Air Force logo on the fuselage, he smiled and greeted the tourists who were looking for the taste of the Soviet Union.

Is it funny?Maybe it's funny?Is it sad?Maybe?

Wei Ran silently looked at the three dignified teachers, and finally he could only sigh. What about KGB, which was once frightening and almost equated with terror?

After the solid backing behind them fell apart, their remaining prestige may only exist in legends.But they themselves had changed into mud tires and wooden bones 30 years ago.
