"You said this Heydar was introduced by Yakovlev?" Zhuravlev asked worriedly. [Full text reading] One Reading·1kanshu·
"Yes, Minister, I just came to ask you if I was not sure how to arrange this Gaidar. I don't know the Minister, what's your opinion?" Xie Liaosha asked respectfully.
"Let me consider this matter about Seryosha, and I will give you an answer in a few days!" Zhuravlev couldn't figure out the sacredness of this Heydar for a while, so he planned to delay it for a while.
After Sergey said goodbye to Zhuravlev, he left his office. Just walking out of the room, I suddenly found that everyone in the corridor was running forward. Sergei didn't understand what was going on, so he quickly grabbed a person and asked what was going on.
"Minister Ulyanov, General Secretary Chernenko seems to have passed away!" The man ran forward after speaking, and Sergei ran two steps to follow up, and walked to the hall where the TV sets were crowded. Got people. Sergey pushed away the crowd and walked forward. When people saw that Sergey had walked past, he consciously gave way to a path.
The announcer on the TV was announcing the death of Chernenko in a painful voice. Sergey was a little surprised at first, then a little sad. Then there was a sense of excitement.
"Today is really a sad day!" Sergey Sha said to everyone, everyone immediately bowed their heads in silence for General Secretary Chernenko, and Sergey also joined them. After the silence was over, Sergey Sha left the unit in advance and returned home. During this time, Sergey Sha did not plan to do anything.
...
The news of Chernenko’s death disrupted all political activities in Moscow, and before the news was announced, the Politburo was arguing about the position of Chairman of the funeral committee of General Secretary Chernenko. To read the book ww to w·1ka book nshu·
The tug-of-war voting process within the Politburo Standing Committee prevented neither Gromyko nor Gorbachev from gaining the upper hand. Tikhonov is now acting as a center to preside over the overall situation. He can only helplessly say: "Comrades, since we cannot reach an agreement, then I suggest that this matter be left to the Central Committee to decide. After all, we have just concluded the Supreme Soviet Conference. All the members of the Central Committee are still in Moscow."
After Tikhonov put forward his proposal, another round of voting was soon held. This time, because Tikhonov's faction and Gorbachev's people stood together, the proposal was passed.
Gromyko felt that he might not have the chance to hand it over to the Central Committee to make the final decision, so he reluctantly accepted the result.
On the same day, the Kremlin notified all the members of the Central Committee to convene an extraordinary Central Committee plenary meeting. As a result, the Central Committee members who had already planned to return home were told to attend a special meeting at the Supreme Soviet in the morning of the next day.
Yeltsin quickly learned about the real background behind this sudden meeting through Selesha. Yeltsin has now put all his chips on Gorbachev, not just him. Many cadres who have been beaten in local governments for many years are optimistic about Gorbachev. For them, the fact that Gorbachev and Ryzhkov entered the Politburo in their fifties and became members of the Standing Committee of the Politburo is simply a role model in the officialdom. The reason why officials like Yeltsin are in the local state committee The level of stagnation is largely due to the fact that the central government has no surplus positions to provide them. Unless an official of Gromyko's age has died or made a serious mistake, he may leave the job.
Since this time the plenary meeting of the Central Committee is not open to the public, Sergei, like most ordinary people, can only quietly wait for the final result.
The meeting was held under the auspices of Tikhonov. First, the general secretary of Chernenko, who had passed away, was expressed collective condolences, and then after Tikhonov announced the candidate for the next general secretary, the voting activities began.
Every member of the Central Committee in the Great Hall has a ballot that can determine the future leader of the Soviet Union. Some people fill out the ballot without hesitation, while others hesitate and are in a dilemma. Everyone can see the ballot box in the middle of the hall, and the fate of many people will be changed because of this result.
After Gorbachev finished voting, he returned to his seat with a smile, and enthusiastically joked with Tikhonov and other old comrades, but only he knew that his heart was about to stop.
Yeltsin put his vote in the ballot box, and then returned to his seat blankly. He raised his head and looked at Ryzhkov in the distance enviously. Feeling a little sad in his heart, he blamed his own why he stopped working hard so that he could be promoted earlier and leave Sverdlovsk.
The Central Committee waited quietly for the final result of the counting of votes in silence. Gorbachev forced himself to try not to pay attention to the numbers on the electronic display. He played with the pen in his hand and calmly waited for his destiny decision.
As the counting of votes progressed, the number of votes obtained by several candidates on the electronic display screen began to widen. Gromico's votes were temporarily ahead of all the candidates. Gromico gave a light glance, and then Leaning on the chair, his tight body gradually relaxed.
Yeltsin clenched his injured fist tightly~www.readwn.com~ a feeling of dead end arose in his heart.
As the counting of votes continued, Gorbachev's votes magically caught up, and the remaining candidates began to be left far behind by Gromyko and Gorbachev.
Gromyko couldn't sit still a bit, he frowned slightly, staring at the numbers on the display. Gorbachev was not turning a blind eye to the display either. He coldly looked at the number of his votes. Every time the number changed, his heart would twitch.
The growth rate of votes under Gromyko began to slow down, and the number of votes under Gorbachev began to increase rapidly. Grishen glanced at Gromico, and then stared at the changes in the numbers. If Gromico were loaded today, he would not be far from retirement.
Gorbachev’s votes finally surpassed Gromyko at an incredible speed. As the counting of votes came to an end, the audience began to applaud. Ryzhkov whispered to Gorbachev. congratulate.
When the counting of votes was finally over, there was thunderous applause from the audience. The new general secretary Gorbachev stood up and greeted the comrades present. Tikhonov and other Politburo members began to leave their seats. Congratulations to Gorbachev on his election.
