The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 764: The Wanta Project? (Seeking monthly tickets at the end of the month)
East Germany, Berlin.

A middle-aged man in a suit walked into a hotel. He was inconspicuous and his eyes kept looking around while he walked.

Then he walked towards a table where there was a man who looked like he had an oriental face.

"Mr. Vladimir!" The middle-aged man greeted with a smile.

Vladimir is the name of this middle-aged man in a suit.

Vladimir sat down and said after a moment's hesitation: "I want to know how you know us? Few people know my identity."

He is not an ordinary person, but a KGB agent!
He has been in East Germany for seven years and has become a middle-level manager, but he has kept secrets very well and very few people know him.

But when this man came to the hotel, he told a blonde woman that he wanted to see him.

This seems very abnormal.

This hotel, although it looks like a hotel, is actually a KGB property, and the blonde woman is a Swallow.

"Mr. Vladimir, I am the chairman of the Far East Group, Liu Qi!" Liu Qi greeted the man in front of him with a smile on his face.

Vladimir was stunned.

Far East Group?

He was not unfamiliar with this name, because this was a company specializing in trade between the Soviet Union and China. It was a small company at the beginning, but in just a few years, it had become a large company.

Moreover, the Far Eastern Group has connections with many people in the Soviet Union and has great power.

Even though Vladimir was in East Germany, he had heard of it.

But Vladimir didn’t understand why Liu Qi came here since the Far East Group’s business was not in East Germany.

And I specifically looked for him.

Vladimir said: "Mr. Liu Qi, nice to meet you."

"But please tell me, Mr. Liu Qi, where have I been exposed?" Vladimir said.

For an intelligence officer, the most important thing is confidentiality.

Once the information is leaked, the intelligence officer will be in danger and will also lose his effectiveness.

Liu Qi smiled faintly and said, "It doesn't matter where it was exposed. What matters is that I came here to make friends with you, and someone also asked me to bring you a letter."

"Making friends? Letters?" Vladimir's mind raced as he made a quick analysis.

He came to two conclusions: first, Liu Qi had no ill intentions in looking for him, but rather had good intentions; second, someone had entrusted him to look for him and to bring him a letter.

"Then I am very happy to be recognized by you, Mr. Liu Qi. Compared with you big shots, I am just a small person." Vladimir smiled and said, "I wonder who asked you to bring a letter to me?"

Liu Qi said: "It doesn't matter who asked me to bring the letter to you. What matters is the letter!"

Liu Qi took out an unopened letter from his bag.

He had never seen this letter either.

After receiving the order, he immediately came to East Germany and found Vladimir.

Liu Qi didn't know how his cousin knew Vladimir, and why he wrote to Vladimir. But it didn't matter. What mattered was that he had to complete this mission.

The bigger the Far East Group becomes, the more Liu Qi can feel the enormous power of his cousin. He is now also a big shot, but he still cannot see his cousin from afar.

Vladimir did not open the letter immediately, but chatted with Liu Qi. The two of them ate and chatted together. Vladimir wanted to get some information from Liu Qi.

But he didn't get the information he wanted most.

After Liu Qi left, Vladimir returned to his office, put on gloves, checked the letter first, and after making sure there was no problem, he opened the envelope. There was only a piece of paper inside with a short line of words written on it.

Vladimir was quite puzzled, and then began to investigate.

In just three days, Vladimir had completed the investigation.

"That's right, Liu Qi is the chairman of the Far East Group, and behind him is the Panshan Group!" Vladimir found it incredible. Ordinary people in the Soviet Union didn't know about the Panshan Group, and the Far East Group would be more famous, but Vladimir knew how powerful the Panshan Group was. It was one of the largest arms dealers in the world.

"Could it be that Panshan Group is behind this?" Vladimir guessed, but he had never dealt with Panshan Group, so he didn't understand why they came to him, "And this Leo Wanta, and this Wanta Project!"

Vladimir's breathing became rapid and his eyes were full of coldness.

With a clear target, it was extremely easy for the KGB to investigate this kind of thing. Vladimir managed to investigate the matter completely in just three days.

The United States arranged for this man named Leo Vanta to carry out a secret economic plan in the Soviet Union, with the goal of significantly raising the exchange rate through transactions on the black market and bringing down the Soviet economy.
For this "Wanta Plan", the Americans invested huge manpower, material and financial resources, and even mobilized Americans in the Soviet Union.

"These people deserve to die! They should all go to hell!" Vladimir gritted his teeth.

The powerful Soviet Union actually spawned so many parasites.

There are even some parasites who have already held high positions and provided protection for the actions of the Americans.

Logically, for such a big thing, Vladimir should report it to higher authorities.

But at this time, Vladimir was no longer sure which of the people above could be trusted and which could not be trusted.

He couldn't help but wonder how to deal with this matter.

Even his immediate superiors, the KGB Berlin chief 'Andrei' and the KGB East German chief 'Alexander', Vladimir did not believe them, because he was not sure whether they had been turned.

Yes, during the investigation, Vladimir discovered that someone in the powerful KGB had been instigated to defect.

He also relied on his superb skills and anti-reconnaissance capabilities to escape from the KGB.

Vladimir acted quickly, leaving a backup plan, and then went to Leningrad to meet his mentor, who is now the mayor of Leningrad.

Leningrad was a very important city in the Soviet Union. The mayor of Leningrad was already in a high position and could meet with higher-level leaders.

As a KGB agent, Vladimir did not completely trust his mentor. After all, the two had not met for more than ten years, so he had a backup plan.

If he fails to spread the news, his confidants will think he has been killed and spread the news widely, making it impossible for others to cover up the truth.

Of course, doing so would alert the enemy.

On the train, Vladimir was praying in his heart, praying that the trip would go smoothly, otherwise there would be huge troubles, and the entire Soviet economy might even be hit hard.

This loss is too great!
Vladimir hated those people even more because they betrayed their faith and betrayed the Soviet Union!
