Seryozha immediately called Churbanov. Churbanov seemed very sad, and Seryozha comforted him on the phone. Churbanov asked Seryosha on the phone if he wanted to attend the farewell ceremony for Mr. Bo's body, and he could help arrange it. Sergey Sha thought about it, but still politely refused. Because Seryozha knew that the people who could go to the farewell ceremony for the body were all dignitaries from various countries and high-level domestic party, government and military officials. Seryozha knew that he did not have the qualifications. If you go hastily, it will attract attention.
The farewell ceremony of President Bo’s body was broadcast live on TV. The red venue was solemn and quiet, and President Bo’s coffin was surrounded by flowers, pines and cypresses. People from all over the world who attended the funeral would wear red and black armbands on their sleeves. Sergey saw many international figures on TV. He saw the picture of Churbanov comforting Galina on TV. It seemed that the two were very affectionate, and they didn't look like they were being separated at all. In front of the media, the Vice President of the United States praised President Bo, and everything seemed harmonious.
Although Seryozha did not participate in the farewell ceremony for Mr. Bo's remains for fear of publicity, he still participated in the burial ceremony for the coffins of 100,000 people in Red Square. On this day, the temperature in Moscow was still more than 20 degrees below zero. Seryozha stood in the front row of the square of the Youth League Committee and watched the solemn and solemn funeral in its entirety.
The newly succeeded general secretary Andropov first delivered a speech, and then he and several members of the Politburo carried President Bo's coffin down the viewing platform. The coffin was placed on an armored artillery vehicle and circled the Red Square for three weeks, followed by a long procession. Bo's coffin was then sent to the Red Square Cemetery for burial. At this moment, Seryozha sincerely missed this elder who had only met a few times. After all, he was able to live his current life largely thanks to Mr. Bo.
Shortly after the funeral, a city called Cherny-na-Kama in the Tatar Republic of the Soviet Union was renamed Brezhnev in memory of the man who had ruled the Soviet Union for eighteen years. The Brezhnev era has since come to an end.
. . .
As the end of the year approaches, the first phase of the workers’ new village is about to be completed, in order to try to get the first batch of workers to live in their new homes before the new year. Seryozha pressed harder on the project. At present, the exterior and main body of the ten buildings in the first phase of Gonggong Xincun have all been completed. Each building has about 30 floors. Based on three or four households per floor, the workers’ new village in the first phase can accommodate thousands of ordinary families in Moscow.
However, although the building has been improved, the corresponding supporting facilities have to wait until next year, such as greening, transportation facilities and surrounding supporting facilities have not yet been built. Greening has to wait until spring, and traffic requires leveling and secondary construction of the road, which is a lot of money.
To be honest, most of the funds mobilized for these ten buildings actually came from Seryozha. Moreover, Sergey Shale was originally for money laundering. The unexplainable income of many officials was turned into their legal income by Sergey through this new workers’ village project, and he also gained a good reputation for supporting the country’s construction. , How can these officials not thank Nicholas. Of course, they only knew that their own money had participated in this project, and they didn't know that Seryozha was that Nikolai.
The contractors rushed to complete the first phase of the workers' new village in mid-December, and the first batch of lucky ones also got the long-awaited house keys. This incident became the happiest thing for the common people in Moscow at the end of 1982. Many people can finally have their own home in Moscow, which is not easy to live in. Different from the traditional staff dormitories, the houses in Workers’ New Village have independent kitchens and bathrooms.
Simple decoration. However, Seryozha did not provide furniture and appliances, which just gave Hassan and the others a chance to make money.
On the day when the project was completed, Xie Liaosha didn't want to make a big fuss to celebrate, but just wanted to give some bonuses to the subordinates of the Youth Industry Department and comrades in the trade union who had worked hard for more than half a year to celebrate, and then get together Have a meal to connect with your feelings. But Seryozha is not a veteran of the officialdom after all, he thinks things too simply.
On the day of completion, the shameless Zyuganov and Grishin came to claim the credit. Sergey doesn't really mind, he just needs to firmly control the project. After all, Sergey's original intention is to launder money. For safety's sake, it's better to be as low-key as possible. However, Zyuganov accepted the interviews of the four major domestic newspapers and Moscow TV station with a shy face. This made the staff of the Ministry of Youth Industry and the comrades of the trade union who knew the truth very indignant.
Even Korolev, the chairman of the Moscow trade union, couldn't stand Zyuganov's behavior. He refused to take a photo with Zyuganov, which made the reporters a little puzzled. However, some reporters knew what was going on inside. For example, Damara, the female reporter of "Komsomolskaya Pravda", knew about Zyuganov's filth. This female reporter became famous all over the world because she was the first to expose the rape case at Gorky University and pulled down Bogdanov, the secretary of the Gorky City Party Committee. As a reporter of the Communist Youth League system, the matter of the Moscow Youth League Committee could not be hidden from his eyes and ears. At this moment, secretary Ulyanov, who had worked so hard and suffered an injustice, was pushed aside, while Zyuganov, who was sitting on a vegetarian meal, blatantly spoke in front of the reporters, which made Damara feel angry.
Damara squeezed to the front of the interview crowd and asked with a smile: "Dear Secretary Zyuganov! Congratulations on completing this great project that will benefit our city of Moscow. Our "Komsomolskaya Pravda" I want to ask you a few specific questions!"
"Okay, this beautiful female reporter, I promise to tell you everything!" Zyuganov puffed up his chest and replied with a serious expression.
"That's good! We all know that this place used to be an unfinished building. May I ask how much the total investment of the first phase of the new worker's village project is, and how to solve the source of funds!" Damara asked with a smile.
"Well, this...is this a question? I may have to ask the responsible comrades before I can answer this!" Zyuganov replied hesitantly.
"Then may I ask how many types of houses are there in Workers' New Village, and what is the floor area of each type?" Damara continued to ask.
"Well, I remember it's on the information, you can go and look at the information, I won't say anything more!" Zyuganov even had cold sweat on his forehead, you know it's more than 20 degrees below zero.
...
Damara deliberately teased Zyuganov, leaving him speechless. Many reporters immediately saw that there was a problem. Just when everyone was thinking about whether to interview the cadres in charge, Several unexpected big shots also came. (To be continued..)
