Vanya Zhukov and a performance according the book "Napoleon" by Yevgeny Tarle
Vanya Zhukov went into the office of the Great Diplomat. Vanya had a new project.
It seemed to Vanya that the Great Diplomat was in a stymied mind. Still, all the phrases were familiar.
- "All your projects have long been known."
A nod towards a stack of folders lying on the table.
- "All right. Speak".
The eyes are directed in an office space.
Vanya was in doubt: "Not in time I came!." But he did decide. And he began to present his project:
- "I propose to organaze a performance according to the book by Yevgeny Tarle "Napoleon". "Soldiers! Forty centuries look at you today from the height of these pyramids!" A financing - through interest-free and unlimited loans of state banks. Plus the issue of shares under a loans. With the subsequent sale of shares to everyone who wish. "
The Great Diplomat automatically took out the diplomatic casket and began to move the thimbles.
"Under what thimble a little ball is situated?"
- "You initially put three thimbles on the table, and now before you - four. And besides, you didn 't put on the table a little golden ball. So, most likely, there is no little ball under thimbles. "
The Great Diplomat slammed the casket with frustration, having put the thimbles in it:
"All your ideas have long been known."
A nod, again, towards the stack of folders. The eyes are a little defocused.
Vanya went outside and decided to stand for a few seconds near the kiosk with a fast food - to breathe in of a smell of food. There is a wish to eat.
"He was a little overworked and slightly confused."
"But he is moving fastly. Excellent prospects!"
From a passing car, the turned-on radio sent a sound wave towards Vanya.
"Soldiers! Forty centuries look at you today from the height of these pyramids!" - Vanya heard.
"All my ideas have long been known!" - Vanya said sadly. - "Because there is no novelty in my ideas, I propose projects that have already been proposed by experts..."
Vanya ran further on a little assignments.
