Chapter 511 I am a killer

Between two points, a straight line is the shortest.

But when we really do things, we find that going straight won't work. If we take a turn or go in a circle, things will be easier and can be accomplished.

Now Gao Yi has roughly felt Yuri's pulse.

The most treacherous appear loyal, and the most loyal appear treacherous, this is all Yuri.

It seems that everything is for profit, but in fact it is for the ideals in my heart that have never wavered.

Yuri is an honest man, and he has never hidden his goals. However, his goals are too lofty and great, which makes it difficult for the normal people who occupy this world to believe them.

So, to Russia, Yuri is always a big traitor.

To most normal people, Yuri is a big madman, and the big one here means he can cause great harm.

To Gao Yi, Yuri is a dreamer whom he cannot understand.

But the advantage of Gao Yi is that he knows that there are many things in this world that cannot be understood, so there is no need to understand them, just respect them.

Each takes what he needs on the basis of respect.

Don't underestimate the role that this attitude of misunderstanding but respect can play.

Let’s put it this way, in this world, people whose status and strength can reach Gao Yi’s level are absolutely not humble.

Because people who are humble enough and know how to respect others are unlikely to have the strength of Gao Yi.

It was probably because Gao Yi rose too quickly, and his pride and temper had not had time to match his strength, so he was able to maintain this domineering yet humble attitude.

If Gao Yi could just stick around for a few more years with this strength, he would probably get angry if anyone dared to say no to him.

Gao Yi is now humble and low-key, and he doesn't even know how much terrible power he holds, so he is Yuri's perfect collaborator.

Only a leader with a high degree of tolerance can gather a group of subordinates who claim to be extraordinary and are indeed extraordinary.

Anyway, the world is often changed by a group of people inadvertently. At the beginning, these people don’t know how far they can go. It is often not until many years later that they look back and realize what great things they have accomplished.

Just like Gao Yi now, he knows that what he is doing seems to be extraordinary, but he has no idea how extraordinary what he is doing is.

Influencing the selection of the director of the KGB is such a thing that few people can do, let alone dare to think about it.

But Gao Yi felt that everything was so natural and everything was so logical.

"Then how do you think we can be good foreign aid?"

The humble and low-key Gao Yi strives hard to get more guidance from Yuri.

Although Yuri didn't have the problem of being a know-it-all, he really couldn't refuse his boss's inquiry.

"It's very simple. Provide funds, show political achievements, and attack opponents. When all the better candidates have been eliminated, the person you choose will naturally become the director."

"Will it be too obvious if we do this? Will the people above us be wary and disgusted, and then they will refuse to choose us?"

Yuri laughed, and then he whispered, "Then don't be so obvious."

"But as long as we are here, as long as we do these things, well, we can't hide it..."

Gao Yi felt that it was unlikely that Qin Pu, such a powerful man, would not be able to see that others were trying to influence the selection of the KGB director.

But Yuri didn't see it that way. He said earnestly: "The superiors make the choices, and the people below are responsible for providing the choices. Do you understand?"

“I don’t quite understand…”

"Multiple choice question, choose one from ABCD, but who provides these four answers?"

Gao Yi smacked his lips for a long time, and then he finally realized.

Yuri had a calm face and a tone that seemed to carry a hint of sarcasm as he continued in a low voice: "No one is omniscient and omnipotent. It is impossible for one person sitting in an office to grasp the situation of everyone. If you want someone to see what you want him to see, it is enough. Decisions are made by people, not gods."

No need to ponder. This time Yuri's words were straightforward and easy to understand. "I see. Who do you choose?"

Yuri smiled but didn't answer.

Gao Yi whispered, "I know nothing about them. If you don't tell me their names, I don't even know their names, so you have to tell me who is the most suitable."

Yuri said calmly: "Let Alexander choose."

"Let him choose?"

Yuri whispered, "You can provide options, but let Alexander decide the final candidate. After all, he will be the one dealing with the new director in the future. If you think you can control Alexander, make choices for him and handle everything, then when he has enough power, the first thing he will do is to rebel against you."

It doesn’t seem to be a very profound truth, but when it comes to actual application, I find that Yuri is still the best.

Gao Yi could understand every word Yuri said, but if Yuri didn't remind him, he couldn't think of what to do.

This guy is not that amazing, he just takes every step well, even though it seems unimportant.

Gao Yi thought deeply for a long time, then nodded and said, "I understand. Now I seem to be looking at the problem with the manipulator's mentality of Alexander. This is not right and not good."

Yuri smiled and said, "It's rare that you can understand this. Okay, Alexander is familiar with the KGB and everyone. Now he has reached a critical period of making a choice. We should not control him or even influence him. Let him think for himself and make his own choice."

"What if he chooses the wrong one?"

"I have already exerted some influence on him. He will definitely not choose the three unsuitable people. As for the remaining few people, as long as he is not blind or stupid, then he will certainly know who to choose."

Gao Yi took a deep breath and said, "Great, you are very far-sighted."

“Basic operation.”

"What if the person he chooses is really not suitable?"

"Influence him, not control him. Just give suggestions, not choices, and let him correct his own ideas."

With the intention of learning more deeply, Gao Yi continued: "What if he insists on not changing his wrong ideas?"

"Generally speaking, when we encounter such a situation, it usually means that our own choice was wrong, so it is time to change someone."

Choose a person and ask him to select his own team to perform a task. If he can't even choose his own team well, then it means that this person is wrong.

Gao Yi couldn't help but smile and said, "The solution is so simple."

"Yes, it was simple."

Yuri said slowly: "Alexander is also observing. He has not reached the most critical moment yet. When he feels that he can no longer delay and has no other choice, and starts to take the initiative to make a choice and start to execute it, then he will ask us for help."

"If he succeeds, it's his choice and his success. If he fails, it's no loss to us anyway."

Gao Yi finished speaking, he exhaled, and said to Yuri: "You don't think like a Russian, really, you are too cunning."

“No one likes to be a puppet.”

Yuri answered the question irrelevantly and looked at Gao Yi and said, "A capable and ambitious person especially doesn't like to be a puppet. Alexander is someone worthy of long-term investment and cooperation, so we must take care of his feelings from the beginning."

"What I did before was okay?"

Yuri thought for a moment and said, "You keep saying that you are a killer. Frankly speaking, I can't tell whether this is just a disguise or you really just think of yourself as a killer. But I think Alexander thinks you are a killer."

Gao Yi whispered: "I really am a killer..."

Yuri whispered, "It looks real, but it's just acting, because anyone with a normal mind should realize their true position by now anyway."

After that, Yuri pointed to his head and turned his index finger around twice. Then he said seriously: "This is a common sense issue and has nothing to do with acting. So I admire your acting, but I despise your script. It's too stupid and insults people's IQ."

Gao Yi said helplessly: "I am really a killer. I really only think of myself as a killer. I don't think of anything else, really... at least I used to think so, at least I still thought so before today!"
