This is undoubtedly the wisest choice.

The emergence of a cheap car has an obvious impact on the market. Only those with a keen sense of the market will respond accordingly.

But this is only limited to people with a keen sense of smell. In fact, for some people, they don't care at all whether ordinary people have cars.

They care more about other things than cars designed to be a ride for everyone.

However, even if they don't care, there are still some people talking about cars even in the embassy.

After all, people always yearn for a better life. Even people who are determined to liberate all mankind, their aspirations are also to let people live a better life.

"...It's only 399 yuan. You can buy one with one year's salary!"

"But a car like that may not be suitable for the weather in Moscow. The winter there is so cold, and a convertible car is definitely not suitable for the weather there..."

"Jeeps also have a soft canvas hood. It's better to have a car to block the biting cold wind than walking or riding a bicycle."

"It's really hard to imagine..."

As soon as he arrived at the restaurant in the morning, Ivan heard them talking about Nanyang's "Rongguang Automobile". To this, he just smiled and didn't even bother to talk about this topic.

Neon lights will turn the whole city into a feasting place, and people will enjoy the charming tropical night.

And his job itself is to collect information on technology and other aspects to help domestic research avoid detours.

Although on the surface Ivan is the commercial attaché of the Soviet Embassy in Nanyang, in fact, he is an intelligence officer responsible for collecting information about Nanyang. He has been paying attention to the C717 since its test flight, and not just because of it It was the world's second jet airliner, but it was based on the instinct of an agent.

This is why he cares about this aircraft - he hopes to introduce this engine to Russia just like the British Neen engine.

While sighing, the door of the office opened and it was Major Alexander. As soon as he entered the room, he asked.

Pacing back and forth in the office, Ivan finally opened the curtains, stopped and glanced out the window. There were a few pedestrians passing by on the street. It was time to go to work, and there were not many pedestrians on the street.

A seemingly ordinary passenger plane can always make many people think about it.

Although he came to Nanyang not long ago, Ivan already knew that life in Nanyang is at night. During the day, the hot equatorial sun will cause skin peeling, and everyone needs to work. After six o'clock every night, the city becomes lively.

Ivan locked himself in the office again, and then the slide projector projected various photos. What was on the screen was the "White Swan" that shocked the world.

"It's very difficult to get these things. I don't know if the Nanyang people are willing to sell the aircraft to Russia."

"I didn't expect that they actually made the aircraft so unique and elegant..."

After writing these words on the notepad, Ivan frowned and said to himself.

Picking up the photo on the table, Ivan stared at the engine on the photo and said to himself.

He cares more about Nanyang's planes than cars.

There are envious people, there are jealous people, and of course there are longing ones, and Ivan is the longing one.

"Nanyang people will definitely not make the same mistake twice!"

"Still looking at White Swan's information?"

"C717, WP100 turbofan engine..."

"This kind of engine is really suitable for use on bombers!"

"Yes, Major, its engine technology is very advanced. We should be able to use its engine in our development of bombers and passenger aircraft."

It has to be said that as a spy, Ivan is competent. He can see at a glance the importance of the "White Swan" to Russia.

"Indeed, but whether they will provide an export license is still a question."

Alexander closed the door of Ivan's office, walked to his office, looked at the information stacked above, and then said.

"Without a license, everything is empty talk, so the most critical thing is the export license."

While talking, Major Alexander took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff and said. "If there is no license, everything is empty talk. Now Western capitalist countries have implemented a comprehensive technological blockade on Russia, making it difficult for us to introduce technology as we did in the past. Therefore, we must rely on us!"

Even as the head of the KGB in Nanyang, Major Alexander did not know about the secret cooperation between Chang'an and Moscow. That kind of cooperation was secret and unknown.

Alexander said after taking a drag on his cigarette.

"So, for us now, the most important thing is to develop our offline. Only in this way can we obtain more intelligence, especially technological intelligence."

"This is indeed important, but our development here is not easy. After all... you see..."

Pointing to the window, Ivan said.

"They are all grateful that they can live the life they have now. After all, many of them couldn't even eat in the past, so..."

He left half a sentence before he finished speaking. But everyone knows the answer. People here are full of gratitude for this country, and because of this, they are very content with their current lives.

In this case, few people would choose to cooperate with foreigners like them.

This is also the most special place in this country. And what this country gives you is something that many other countries can’t give you.

For these intelligence officers, operating in such a place was something of a nightmare.

"So they can't possibly help us, can they?"

Alexander asked knowingly.

Ivan said nothing. The major spoke his mind.

"But you have to believe that people always have ideals, we just need to adapt to them..."

In fact, sometimes things are not as complicated as imagined. After all, everyone has their own reasons for betraying the country. They just need to find an appropriate reason for each other at the appropriate time.

"But that doesn't matter now. Did you receive a telegram from Moscow a few hours ago?"

Alexander took out a telegram and said.

"Moscow has asked us to invite business elites from Southeast Asia to attend the Moscow International Economic Conference to be held in Moscow on the 3rd of next month. Of course, this is a private event, and it is best to send invitations from Ivanovich's trading company. Moscow’s instructions are something we must invite with sufficient weight.”

……

"Enough portion?"

Ivanovich looked at Ivan and said.

"What does it mean?"

“It means you have to have a lot of influence in the business world.”

Ivan said as he lit his cigarette.

"You should know that since the United States planned and established the "Paris Coordination Committee", Western capitalist countries have begun to impose trade embargoes and technological blockades on us, so Moscow hopes to break the capitalist countries' restrictions on us through private trade. Blockade, that’s why it was decided that business people in Western capitalist countries, and of course business people from Eastern countries, should jointly discuss expanding private trade, taking advantage of Western capitalists’ greed for money and their naivety, to carry out private trade, and break through politics. Bondage.”

"Is this... feasible?"

Ivanovich asked rhetorically,

"Now since the distribution of the Batumi Agreement, there are hundreds of embargoed products against us. What businessman is willing to take the risk to sell goods to us?"

After listening to Ivanovich's rhetorical question, Ivan thought for a while and said.

"Moscow is now looking for a possibility, a possibility to break through the blockade... After all, all capitalists are greedy! All we need is to exploit their greed!"

Nodding his head, Ivanovich said.

"So who do you think we should extend the invitation to?"
