Chapter 480: Strange things to live in
Chapter 480: Strange things to live in
One needs to be bold and have an open mind. Gao Yi dare not say that he taught Alexander a lesson, but he could at least give him some inspiration.
This is how people's ambitions are cultivated. Perhaps Alexander does not have any extravagant hopes at the moment and can only accept the arrangement of fate, or accept the unfair arrangement of Nickley for him.
But with Gao Yi's words, Alexander can get a glimpse of a window to a new world, and who knows what Alexander will become.
Alexander did not leave immediately. Although Gao Yi asked him to go back and help contact Nick Ray, which was already an order to expel him, but Alexander, who could be a black glove and an elite agent of the KGB, how could he be the kind of person who is thin-skinned and timid.
Being ruthless and cruel is a basic quality, and turning one's back on someone is standard.
Alexander sat still, deep in thought, and Gao Yi decided to give him some more time.
Maybe there is no need to wait, Alexander can give him a surprise right now.
Sure enough, Alexander thought for a long time and suddenly asked, "What do you want?"
Gao Yi smiled and said, "I told you, I have big ambitions, and I want too many things."
"How can you help me?"
Gao Yi spread his hands and said, "I don't know either. It depends on what you need."
Alexander nodded, and then he said seriously: "You say you want everything, but in fact you want nothing. If you say you don't want anything, there must be something you want. You'd better tell me what you want, and I will judge whether I can afford it."
What a smart guy.
Seeing the essence through the phenomenon, Alexander was not someone who could be easily fooled. He did not believe that there were people in this world who existed specifically to benefit others.
In Alexander's opinion, a normal person has something to ask for and something to plan for. If someone really appears in front of him with an angel's face, then that person must be a devil.
Gao Yi spread his hands and said, "Uh..."
"Let me know what I can get and what price I need to pay, then I don't mind making a deal with the devil. But don't pretend to be an angel, because I don't know what you want, which will make me resist out of vigilance."
Alexander has said this already, what else can Gao Yi say?
"I want someone, Yuri. If you can get the power you want, find a way to give this person to me."
Alexander was confused at first, but soon he suddenly realized something. He shouted, "Damn it, I see. You are trying to rescue someone for Dongda!"
Gao Yi spread his hands and said, "Not really, but why do you think it's unimportant? Frankly speaking, if you really can have a greater say, wouldn't it be more beneficial for me to cooperate with you? Since you know Gao Shi's poem, do you know the idiom "Rare goods can be occupied"? "
Alexander nodded and said, "I know."
"You are the rare commodity. If I invest in you, I will only lose a little money if I fail. If I succeed, I will have a powerful ally in my network. You say I am not an angel? You are wrong. In fact, I am an angel investor."
Alexander stopped talking and just looked straight into Gao Yi's eyes.
Gao Yi retreated to advance. He said calmly: "There is still time. You can go back and think about it slowly. Don't worry. I will stay here for a few more days to see if you can put me in touch with Nick Ray. I will leave only after I meet Yuri."
The name Yuri is as common in Russia as the surnames Zhang, Wang, Li and Zhao. But Alexander didn't even need to confirm that it was that Yuri. He just said that Gao Yi was rescuing people for Dongda, so he obviously knew which Yuri he was talking about.
"I can see Yuri, and I can let you see him too." What was shocking was that Alexander could skip all the detours and let Gao Yi see Yuri directly.
I didn't expect things to develop in this way.
Gao Yi was surprised and asked, "Oh, really?"
Alexander continued, "You don't have to waste time on Nikola. He won't be around for many days. He will lose his current position, but there won't be any serious consequences for him. He can retire with the money he earned. In Russia, such things are allowed."
Gao Yi nodded and said, "I really don't know about this."
"I'm just not sure who will be the next director. There are many contenders and several qualified people. So far, there are at least six candidates, and they all have the potential to become the next director of the KGB."
Gao Yi smiled and said, "It seems that you have been prepared for this as well."
"But it's useless because who can become director depends on what the president thinks. In other words, whoever the president wants can be appointed, regardless of qualifications or ability."
Gao Yi asked: "What about you?"
"It's impossible for me, because my level is still too far away. My best outcome is to become the chief officer of a powerful unit and be qualified for the next promotion. After fifteen years, I will have the possibility of becoming the director."
Alexander exhaled and said, "I don't want to reach the sky in one step. Running fast is not necessarily a good thing. Walking steadily and going far is what I pursue."
I don't mean to argue, but if Alexander said this, then his character is completely different from what he actually did.
"Then why do you want to be a Black Glove?"
Being someone else's black glove, you still say that only by walking steadily can you go far.
Alexander said in a deep voice: "Do you think I have a choice?"
"Well, well, there are many things that we really don't have a choice about."
Alexander said in a deep voice: "I will help you meet Yuri. I will arrange it immediately. Then, I will also look for a suitable person. I don't want to rely on anyone anymore. I don't want to depend on anyone. I want to control my own destiny. You are right. Rare goods are valuable. You invest in me and I invest in others."
Gao Yi did not take the initiative because Alexander made it very clear that he did not want to be controlled by others, he wanted to control his own destiny.
A lamp was lit for Alexander in the darkness, and the light guided Alexander's direction, and Alexander's direction was basically the same as Gao Yi's.
That's all. There's no need to control anyone, nor is there any need to take the initiative. As long as both parties are heading in the same direction, they will naturally come together.
Gao Yi was very happy. He smiled and said, "I'll wait for your good news."
This time Alexander stood up. He didn't need to ask Gao Yi any more questions. He probably wouldn't show up again before Gao Yi met Yuri.
Because only after demonstrating his strength and sincerity as a collaborator, Alexander is now qualified to become an ally of Gao Yi and to ask Gao Yi to help him.
A black glove who lives very clearly and transparently is often the one who lives the most painful life.
