Chapter 685: 0-0
In a certain high-rise building in Shanghai, looking at Yan Shao in front of him, Stalin signed his name with a wry smile, and then pushed the agreement in front of Yan Shao and said frankly to Yan Shao.
"To be honest, I really don't want to sign this..."
"I don't want to leave my name on it..."After more than a month of contact, Yan Shao and Stalin have become very familiar with each other, so Yan Shao joked very directly.
Hearing Yan Shao say this, Stalin shook his head with a wry smile, although he didn't say anything, but the default meaning was something that everyone could see.
Indeed, it was not that Stalin did not want to sign this treaty, but simply did not want to leave his name on it. After all, no matter what the reasons are, in the eyes of outsiders, this is a treaty of humiliation and humiliation, and leaving one's name on it is a stain on politics from any point of view, which is to be avoided by a very ambitious person like Stalin.
It's just that no matter how much he tries to avoid it, in the end he still obeys Moscow's orders and leaves his name on it. After all, Lenin couldn't have sent someone to China to sign his name on it instead of Stalin, could they?
It's not impossible, but...
You know, Shanghai is a long, far away from Moscow...
The only thing that made Stalin happy now was that the treaty was signed by Lenin, and he only signed his name in Lenin's place, and even if there was any trouble, he could not find him...
If this were not the case, Stalin would rather follow Trotsky's example. Just turn around and leave, and don't want to leave your name on it...
Anyway, with the signing of the treaty. It's finally over.
With the signing of the treaty, the biggest contradiction between China and Soviet Russia seems to have been resolved to some extent.
ββββββββββββββββββββ
Being able to get Soviet Russia's recognition of China's territorial ownership seems to be very chicken, but in fact, it has solved some more important problems for Yan Shao.
First, now that Russia has recognized China's ownership of its existing territory, there is no need to worry about Russia and its successors arguing with China over this issue. That is, the so-called historical legacy or something.
In this way, unless Yan Shao's future successor is extremely defeated, even if something really goes wrong. There is no need to worry that Russia will reclaim these two places.
Secondly, it is the normalization of diplomatic relations, if these two issues have been entangled all the time, it is obvious that diplomatic relations between China and Soviet Russia cannot be normal. So come on. China must have a large number of troops in the Ural Mountains, which is very detrimental to the economyββββββ naturally, Yan Shao will not be naΓ―ve enough to think that if a treaty is signed, Soviet Russia will really be honest, after all, history has proven that between countries, the faithfulness is basically a big XB...
Moreover, in history, Soviet Russia was not a man of faith, even its successors.
It's like Yan Shao's Emperor Pu in that time and space. How much does an aircraft carrier pit India? At the beginning, it was about giving the aircraft carrier to India for free, and then they only needed some modification costs. As a result, the cost kept climbing, and in the end, the entire rebuild seemed to be able to buy a brand new one...
The end result is that India has got an aircraft carrier converted from a helicopter carrier, and the performance is extremely wasted. As for Russia, it has received a large amount of money, and the most important thing is to get a shipyard that can manufacture aircraft carriersββββββ the only shipyard that can manufacture aircraft carriers in Russia has been distributed to Ukraine because of the disintegration of Soviet Russia, in other words, Soviet Russia has no ability to manufacture or even repair at all, and Russia at that time obviously did not have the ability to build a new shipyard again, not because of no technology, but because of no money...
But after pitting India, Russia used the money of the Indians to get a shipyard for itself, and its technology is amazing...
But seriously, you can't blame Russia for not being authentic, because this is simply the Indians themselves.
When the Soviet Union collapsed, the Indians took advantage of the fire to rob, originally he owed Soviet Russia a lot of money, but now when they saw the collapse of Soviet Russia, they ran to pay back the money with the rubles that had become waste paper, which was shameless...
It's no wonder that the Russians will cheat them hard, and they are also idiots, seeing that the Russians said that they would send an aircraft carrier for free, they will be in a mess...
ββββββββββββββββββ
In any case, after the territorial problem was resolved, at least China's diplomatic relations with Soviet Russia were no longer superficially problematic. Although Yan Shao can't believe in the credibility of Soviet Russia, even if the problem has been solved, it is impossible not to be careful and vigilant on the border, but at least the border pressure can be easier...
The most important thing is that if Soviet Russia wants to restore its original industry, it must need a lot of resources.
From this, China can earn a large amount of commercial benefitsββββββ Yan Shao is saying that the aid, but not that it is free, Russia will definitely want to exchange hard currency, this hard currency is undoubtedly gold, in this way, China can exchange a large amount of hard currency.
Naturally, helping the opponent to restore his strength seems to be a very good thing, but in fact, even if Yan Shao does not make a move, the Russians themselves can solve this problem, but it will take a little longer. So in this case, why doesn't Yan Shao make a lot of money from it?
What's more, in Yan Shao's strategy, it is indeed necessary to have Soviet Russia sandwiched between him and European countries as a buffer zone, and this buffer zone also has to attract hateful targets part-time, so the strength must not be too low
At present, after losing Siberia and Central Asia, the strength of the target of Soviet Russia has been weakened a lot, if Yan Shao does not want to help, if Soviet Russia is destroyed in the future, then Yan Shaoke has to consider directly facing the problem of Britain, France and Germany...
All this is an important reason why Yan Shao made such a decision...
A strong Soviet Russia, of course, is a threat to China, but it is also very necessary, at least until China is stronger than all the others combined...
ββββββββββββββββββββ
After the signing of the treaty, Stalin did not return directly to Soviet Russia, but spent a period of time in Shanghai, which was also what he requested, because he had just arrived in Shanghai, and he wanted to see how Shanghai, the financial center of China, and also the financial center of Asiaββββββ in fact, with the opportunity brought by the European war, Shanghai has now become one of the few financial centers in the world, almost on a par with London and New York, but after all, the time is too short, and there is still a lot of precipitation...
Naturally, this status has also brought great development to Shanghai, and now there are many high-rise buildings in Shanghai, only a tall building with the Woolworth Building, there are no less than seven or eight buildings in Shanghai, and there are naturally more buildings at other levels, but the real most eye-catching is the tallest building...
Empire State Building II...
The reason why it is called such a name is because this building is completely modeled after the Empire State Building in Beijing, not only is it very similar in appearance, but even the identity is the sameββββββ he is the branch building of Yushi Group in Shanghai...
With the expansion of Yushi Group, its original branch in Shanghai can no longer meet the needs of Yushi Group, and similarly, in Shanghai, the financial center of Asia, Yushi Group is also very much in need of a more imposing building...
So this Empire State Building No. 2 came into being, in fact, there were originally people who built yì to redesign one, it is better to make a taller, but to be honest, the design of the Empire State Building has reached the highest level of this era, and it is really no high, so the final result is naturally ...
But even so, this building still stands out in Shanghai, even if it is still at sea, those ships adrift at sea can clearly see this building standing among the many buildingsββββββ after he finished...
Construction of this building only began in 1918, and the time did not need to be as anxious as the one in Beijing, so it was more relaxed, at least not so rushed, and it turned out that it was only mostly completed, but even so, this building has become the tallest building in Shanghai.
And looking at the tall buildings visible in the distance, Stalin was amazed at his height, and at the same time, he secretly made up his mind in his heart. When Soviet Russia is rebuilt in the future, it will definitely build such a building in Moscow, so that the world will be impressed by Soviet Russia...
But before that, he had to return to Moscow and become the new leader of Soviet Russiaββββββ if Lenin had died as early as he has in history...
After spending some time in Shanghai, Stalin used the camera given by Yan Shao to take pictures of the scenery of Shanghai, which naturally included the second building of the Empire State Building...
At last...
Although we only stayed in Shanghai for a short period of time, the Shanghai YiqiΔ still made a deep impression on Stalin.
After bidding farewell to Yan Shao and others, Stalin took a passenger ship and mysteriously went to Iraq, intending to return to Moscow in the same way as he came...
It's just that he didn't know that just as he was about to return to Moscow, in the command of the Ural Military District, there was also a mysterious guest who was visiting Cai Yi, who was the commander of the military district...
And after Cai Ye got Yan Shao's instructions, he also gave this person a very high courtesy... (To be continued......)
