Chapter 948 News Report
"Ding..." At this time, it was already three in the middle of the night. When he heard the phone ringing on the head of the bed, Robert Baker picked up the phone with sleepy eyes.
As a Times reporter, Robert was very lucky to be able to enter Kiev city to conduct an on-site news report, report on the economic situation and people's lives here, because before that, Western journalists could hardly involve the land in the East, and would be considered spies, and would be closely followed and intervened. Now, after Gorbachev came to power, he began to let go of this aspect.
In his bed, another blonde with a full body was still sleeping.
"Hey..." He answered the phone in a daze, and suddenly, his eyes suddenly appeared.
"What? A big explosion occurred in the nuclear power plant? This is really explosive news!" Robert all woke up and was thinking quickly in his mind.
A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and a reporter who doesn't want to be a world-renowned reporter is not a good reporter. The only way to become a world-renowned reporter is to report the news that caused a sensation in the world as soon as possible! Robert bribed some local people to inform him of the news. Of course, he had to buy these news for a price.
Sure enough, he didn't waste his worries. The news was very sensational. At that moment, he made a decision: go there and report the news!
After putting down the phone, Robert thought about it again. The explosion at a nuclear power plant was different from usual. What was the degree of explosion? He was also very concerned about it. After all, the sensational news was very exciting, and his life was even more important. He still had a little understanding of it. The demon of nuclear radiation would inadvertently swallow the lives of people who were unaware of it.
What to do? Are you just retreating like this? This is a great opportunity! He gritted his teeth and remembered that he opened a new fire equipment store in Kiev. There are various protective clothing, including fire protection and nuclear radiation protection clothing. Go there to buy one. If you don’t buy two radiation protection clothing, go in quickly, and you will definitely not get close to dangerous places, take a few photos and come back. It should be no big problem, right?
At this time, the woman around her was still sleeping soundly and did not notice that the man around her was about to engage in a very dangerous activity.
Robert put on his clothes. Finally, he looked at the woman who was still asleep, left a note, and turned around and went out.
When he drove there, not only him, but also many reporters he knew, but also, like him, they all got the news, and at the same time, they all chose to come here first to buy a set of radiation-proof suits.
They didn't know that all this was the result of Kusai's secret operation. Kusai could not stop the occurrence of this incident, but it was just a word for how to deal with the impact of this incident, and it must be fast!
Why is it soon? When all European newspapers reported this matter tomorrow, Kusai didn't believe that those bureaucratic guys wanted to cover up this matter. Moreover, Kusai would contact Gorbachev directly. Last year, he bought a large number of heavy protective clothing from Europe at a high price, and donated it to Gorbachev, except for some necessary ones.
Thinking of the citizens here, they did not receive any news at all. They were still holding a celebration on May Day two days later. All innocent children were infected with fatal radiation, which made this terrible demon torture their lives. Those directly responsible persons who deceived their superiors and concealed their subordinates were not enough to make up for their faults even if they were shot.
So, letting this happen a few hours after it happens, the world knows that letting the truth be revealed and urgently taking measures to evacuate everyone is the main plan of Kusai.
The most core part of this plan is the reports of these reporters. Fortunately, Kusai’s plan was completely successful.
Just as if businessmen saw the benefits, for journalists, nothing can impress them more than valuable news.
Robert spent a high price to buy two sets of radiation-proof clothing with the strongest protection ability. Although it was very heavy, even if it couldn't be worn, it would be good to block his body. He finally felt that he had sufficient safety guarantees, but if he followed the plan in advance, he needed to take a bus to Pripyat. Although there was only more than 100 kilometers there in Kiev, a reporter must have taken the lead.
Then, if you want to get high-value news, you need the most shocking photos. Nothing is more shocking than observing from the air. So, he thought about it and changed his way and drove to the civil aviation airport in Kiev, and rented a helicopter from there!
Thinking of the last time, he interviewed a minister in charge of dispatching there, he was quite confident. Moreover, he had almost all his US dollar bills in his pocket, which was the weapon that impressed them the most!
As the first batch of people who rushed to buy radiation-proof clothing left, the store manager who was still sleeping half an hour ago was full of worry. It seemed that something big happened to the nuclear power plant. While praying for their safety, he began to contact the European side and airlift the radiation-proof clothing that he needed the most to come here as quickly as possible.
The helicopter's rotor stirred up a huge airflow and made a rumble sound. Sitting in the bumpy cabin, Robert felt a feeling of vomiting. This was completely different from sitting on a comfortable civil aviation passenger plane. Thinking of just now, he still felt a little painful. The other party gave various reasons, that was, he did not agree to rent the helicopter. Until he took off the expensive Swiss watch on his arm, all his belongings were worth 100,000 US dollars, he finally rented the helicopter. Of course, the rent had to be calculated separately.
It's so dark!
The pilot of this helicopter was very pleased and took off without saying anything. Moreover, Robert originally wanted to give him a set of radiation suits, but the helicopter pilot did not take them over and laughed at Robert indifferently. It must be fake news.
In the bumpy cabin, wearing a radiation suit, Robert operated his camera, and it would arrive soon.
He also has to thank Gorbachev for being able to conduct an interview here. If it weren't for him, they would not have been able to conduct an interview freely, and would follow KGB agents at any time, and there would be a possibility of being locked in a small black room at any time.
Hopefully there will be some rewards this time.
Just as he thought of this, Robert was stunned by the scenery in front of him. It was so beautiful!
In the sky, from bottom to top, a beautiful light belt appeared, red, purple, blue, colorful and extremely beautiful. However, this beautiful scene is a complete devil. After the top of the nuclear reactor was blown up, nuclear radiation filled the sky, and the scene that appeared after ionizing the air was very similar to the formation of an aurora.
He pressed the shutter and took a picture, but he didn't know that when he returned and cleaned the photos, he found that there was nothing there, all white.
The strong radiation has exposed all the photographic negatives before taking pictures.
Robert was very excited at this time and continued to take ten photos, and then he found that the damn camera had a malfunction?
Although Robert was wearing a radiation suit, he was still exposed to excessive radiation because, with the explosion of the nuclear reactor, countless radioactive dust filled the sky here, and the pilot, who knew nothing and was very confident in the nuclear power of the Soviet Union, was exposed to more radiation and died of radiation disease a few months later.
However, their sacrifice was not in vain, because they arrived at the scene immediately, and were shocked.
Due to longitude issues, the West will be several hours later, but Western news organizations are already running at full speed.
When it comes to grab news, no one has ever snatched AFP. AFP first issued a special article and issued an alert to the world: the world's largest nuclear accident occurred at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the Soviet Union.
Ajelina once again made contributions to AFP. In fact, she had already started planning this manuscript and received instructions from Kusai to write an article about the nuclear accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. As a result, after she completed the second manuscript, the accident suddenly happened.
Although none of the reporters could reach the nuclear reactor site, which was originally a forbidden area. They only saw the spectacular scene on the outside and knew that something big had definitely happened.
Although no photo was taken, it further illustrates the problem, and a major nuclear leak occurred there.
The next morning, when this incident began to spread in the Western world, the accident handling of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant was still underway.
The fire caused by the heat flow ejected from the reactor is still continuing. Firefighters and nuclear power plant staff are urgently extinguishing the fire. Inside the nuclear reactor, the fission reaction is still continuing. They are temporarily unable to manage so much.
However, when the news was reported to Kiev, the leaders here suppressed it. A serious accident occurred in the nuclear power plant, which would be greatly affected by their own career. They hoped that they could solve this problem with their own strength, and then their responsibilities would be smaller.
If you want freedom of the press, it will definitely make the Soviet Union mess! You will know now. If it weren't for the Western reporters who rushed to report it, this matter would have been suppressed by them! Ukrainian first secretary Xuebisky was a little dissatisfied with Gorbachev's current decision. Now he has only let go of part of his power to allow Western journalists to interview freely, and such a big mess has occurred.
Chapter completed!
