Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

Hu Zhenhua and Qi Shuhuan's voices became quieter. They walked to the map and continued to mutter.

Carter was pretending to be asleep. After about twenty minutes, he felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and he actually fell asleep.

Hu Zhenhua listened to the even breathing, and felt relieved. He lowered his voice even more.

"Brother Qi, the situation is dire. After losing a large area of ​​territory, our population, resources, influence, and mobilization capabilities have all been severely weakened. If we want to turn the tide, we can only rely on one weapon!"

Qi Shuhuan understood and blurted out,

"Big firecrackers!"

Since ancient times, it has been almost impossible to win when one's own territory is used to attack the entire country! Throughout history, there is only one successful case: Prince of Yan Zhu Di. In order to successfully counterattack, no, it should be said that in order to protect oneself, one must possess the power to deter the enemy.

There is no choice but to use big firecrackers!

Hu Zhenhua sighed and said,

"Although Heneng Company has been established, it still faces a talent shortage. Chadwick joined, but he's been absent for three days and then absent for two days, only coming once or twice a week. This won't work! I hope you can use your diplomatic power to help me gather relevant talent information."

"no problem!"

Qi Shuhuan was a little embarrassed and asked tentatively,

"As for funding, can TA company provide some?"

Hu Zhenhua's face darkened and he said unhappily,

"Brother Qi, am I being too hasty? Why do you think this is just my problem? It's already this late, and you're still waiting for help! I'm telling you this: I won't give you a penny! It's up to you whether you want to do it or not! I, Hu Zhenhua, am a billionaire no matter where I go. At worst, I can move my whole family to the United States."

Qi Shuhuan laughed dryly twice and quickly comforted him.

"Zhenhua, I was just saying it casually, I didn't mean anything else. Calm down! Calm down!"

Hu Zhenhua didn't tolerate him and continued to scold him.

"If you ask me, you've got this situation entirely to blame! Those corrupt officials are living off their wealth! We should just confiscate all their property, and the government would be able to raise a huge amount of funds right away!"

Qi Shuhuan's face flushed. He was one of the corrupt officials that Lao Hu mentioned.

"Zhenhua, the situation has deteriorated to this point. If we investigate corruption again, we're afraid we'll have a major internal chaos. We need to take a long-term approach."

Hu Zhenhua stared at Lao Qi, smiled very creepily, and said sarcastically,

"Fight corruption and the party will perish! If we don't, the country will perish!"

He suddenly thought of something and continued,

"The people you sent to Heneng Company eat too much. I can't afford to support them. So, you will be responsible for their salary and food expenses. It's not much. Just pay me 100 million yuan per month!"

Qi Shuhuan's eyes widened upon hearing this. Lao Hu had said many times that all expenses would be borne by his company, and that participants from other countries would not only not have to pay but would also receive a salary. Why was it that when it came to the authorities...

Qi Shuhuan looked at Lao Hu and began to complain.

"Zhenhua, if this matter is reported, Brother Qi will probably have to retire!"

Hu Zhenhua was unmoved. The purpose of the existence of those employees of the authorities was to cover up for the red scholars. Otherwise, Old Hu would have cleared them out long ago. A few big cats and small cats would not have made much of a difference.

"Brother Qi, this isn't about you. The authorities won't value free stuff. I've been ripped off too many times. If I don't see the authorities' resolve, I'll reevaluate the Thunder Plan!"

Qi Shuhuan wanted to say something, but Hu Zhenhua interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"That's it!"

Qi Shuhuan was filled with disappointment. He came here to ask for help, but not only did he not achieve any results, he also lost a lot of foreign exchange!

How cruel God is that he doesn't bless me!

Qi Shuhuan wanted to fight back, but he couldn't open his mouth because he had no bargaining chips.

An excellent politician must possess an indomitable spirit. Qi Shuhuan quickly adjusted his state and asked,

"Zhenhua, do you think it's still possible to continue the Spark Project?"

As he spoke, he pointed his finger at Hong Kong on the map.

The four words "Spark Plan" brought back countless memories for Lao Hu. When he was just reborn, he was captured by the Magic City Station and taken the blame. In order to save his life, Lao Hu came up with this plan.

At that time, the reactionaries still occupied a large area of ​​Jiangnan, and their strength was still not to be underestimated. However, in just half a year, the world changed dramatically.

Although Hu Zhenhua was the originator of the Spark Plan, Wang Yu, in order to take credit for it, did not allow Hu to participate in the subsequent implementation. Therefore, Hu knew nothing about the details of the plan.

Hu Zhenhua rolled his eyes and decided to give Wang Yu some eye drops, so he said,

"If I had carried out this plan at the time, the outcome would have been very different. What a pity! What a pity!"

This statement is a bit of hindsight, and also a bit of adding insult to injury.

Qi Shuhuan just laughed. After all, Wang Yu was his old superior, and there was still some affection between them. But he couldn't help but respond to Hu Zhenhua's words. Old Qi thought about it and said,

"Zhenhua, Director Wang has truly lost both his wife and his army. Let him retire peacefully, right?"

Hu Zhenhua narrowed his eyes slightly. The saying "accompanying the wife and losing the army" was so apt! The big spy had indeed been very well behaved recently and hadn't caused any more trouble, but Old Hu was still worried.

If you are a man, you cannot tolerate the hatred of having your wife taken away!

Wang Yu is lying dormant now, he must be preparing for a big move.

Hu Zhenhua punched Qi Shuhuan on the shoulder and said with a smile,

"Brother Qi, what are you thinking? I'm just speaking the truth, not targeting anyone. No matter what, Director Wang was a benefactor on my road to success. I have no resentment towards him, only gratitude! I've always taken care of Director Wang's children, providing them with good food and drink and giving them the best education!"

Qi Shuhuan nodded slightly and praised Lao Hu.

The Bureau of Secrets has been sending people to secretly protect those children, and Lao Hu has indeed not treated them badly.

Maybe Wang Yu also knew that he had offended too many people, so he refused to take the child back.

"Zhenhua, let's get back to the point. Do you think the Spark Project should continue?"

Hu Zhenhua waved his hand and said indifferently,

"Whatever you want! Facing an absolute disadvantage, no plan can turn the tide! I still hold the same view: trade space for time and wait for change!"

After saying this, he stared at a certain place on the map again. Qi Shuhuan observed his expression and immediately understood. He pointed his finger at the stick on the map and said,

"This may be a breaking point, but I'm worried we won't make it to that point."

"So pessimistic?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Shuhuan's eyes showed a trace of resentment, as if to say: "You son of a bitch, you're talking without any pain in your waist! You don't even know how strong the enemy is now!"

Hu Zhenhua seemed to see through his thoughts and retorted,

"Brother Qi, it's not like I haven't fought them before. Back in the Devil City with Xie Zhiyu's group, I carried a gun and defended the bunker. It's not that the opponent is too strong, but you are too weak! As the saying goes, I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of pig-like teammates..."

After Hu Zhenhua finished his babble, he felt so relieved. He waved his hand and made a summary speech.

"Your biggest problem is corruption! Okay, I won't say anymore. There's no point in me getting anxious!"

Qi Shuhuan suddenly grabbed Lao Hu's hand, looked at him earnestly, and said in a pleading tone,

"Zhenhua, I urgently need your help!"

"How to help?"

"You've made a fortune in protective clothing, can you..."

Seeing that Lao Hu's face had turned cold, he quickly changed his words and said,

"Of course, I'm not asking to borrow money from you. What I'm trying to say is that the Western consortium will inevitably have to contact you in order to obtain protective clothing. Could you please help lobby them to sell us a batch of Spitfire fighters?"

Hu Zhenhua agreed without any hesitation, since it didn't cost any money.

"No problem, I'll do it even if you don't mention it!"

Qi Shuhuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. This was the main purpose of his trip. As long as he had air superiority, there was still room for maneuver.

He also knew that friendship alone was not reliable, so he said,

"Zhenhua, anyone who contributes to the Party and the country will be remembered by the Party and the country. The higher-ups have decided to give your company the most generous investment treatment. On Dongfan Island, you will receive 10 mu (approximately 5 hectares) of free industrial land, and enjoy five years of tax exemption for building a factory! If you want to purchase commercial land, the price will be halved!"

Hu Zhenhua punched Qi Shuhuan again and said with a smile,

"TA company will definitely go all out to promote economic prosperity!"

Lao Hu is well aware of the authorities' little tricks. They want to tie TA company to the authorities' chariot through the binding of interests. Because so far, although TA company has shouted slogans loudly, saying that it will invest 2 million yuan within a year, in reality, it is all talk and no action. In addition to the grain store, TA company has only built a few small factories.

In other words, if there is any change, Hu Zhenhua can leave at any time.

Even if the authorities wanted to control Lao Hu, they had no power to do so.

Introducing a large number of factories in the name of preferential treatment will be different. It will not only boost the economy, but also make Lao Hu "obedient", killing two birds with one stone.

Qi Shuhuan did not feel complacent about fooling Lao Hu. Instead, he began to wonder in his heart: Does this guy really have a pure heart?

This possibility does exist, because Lao Hu is less than 20 years old, which is the age of passion.

When people are young, they always think they are very good! Like Hu Zhenhua, who suddenly soars to fame, it is easy to lose yourself!

Qi Shuhuan quickly suppressed this idea. Everyone was not a three-year-old child, and it was more reliable to bind them with interests.

"Zhenhua, your sister-in-law is bored at home lately..."

He didn't say anything else, but Hu Zhenhua understood. He was worried that Dongfan Island was not safe and wanted to move his family and property in advance, but the rules of the Bureau of Secrets were very strict, and he couldn't let Han Xue leave early, so he hinted.

Of course, Lao Hu wanted to help the other party, so he immediately replied,

"What a coincidence! A few days ago, An Lan was still talking about Sister Han. They haven't seen each other for a while. Let's find a chance to get together and bring the kids along!"

"Good good!"

Qi Shuhuan was overjoyed. Even if the bureau had objections, he could use the excuse that it was An Lan who invited him and that he wanted to maintain his relationship with TA's company.

The two guys, each with their own ulterior motives, completed an exchange of interests in just a few words.
