a brave newer world

At the Regional administration building. https://www.google.com.ua/maps/place/Luhansk,
All the day long, Johnny is on the phone , IM's , SKype,  chat requests, heavy, long, intense database documents rolling across his screen at his administrative office building, along with annoying interruptions, odd stoppages on the fiber optic networks,  data hiccups,
There is  a constant service of tea via his whimsical secretary ALyosha: she is in a laughing mood, which suits him, telling stupid jokes to entertain him, he puts off all his personal stuff, it's just too intense:

Patrushev messages Johnny,
among other things, strangely,  the head of the Russian Federation's Presidential administration, he is asking about the status of a younger girl, Anna, a redheaded orphan  ,
she has a small business baking pies  for  the long distance truckers, for some reason, he is asking to send a team to provide for her personal security, he claims that she is targeted by some Pravy Sector extremists , for some unspecified reasons,  yet Johnny knows her,  and likes her, she is not political:
he finishes the brief note inviting Johnny to be a key note speaker at an upcoming  Russian Federation Small Business Network Conference.  The hotel, transportation and event schedule papers/persons/are attached. Johnny senses that they want his political support in this protective detention of the girl, and seems odd to him, why was this so important ?

Johnny tries to reach her number, and sends one of his personal assistants to check her roadside kitchen shed, apparently she was missing today, her companion,  from the orphanage,  Arthur, he was working in her place :
 he said that she seemed troubled and needed some personal time
he sends a text to "the boss" Tuka, along with a carrier pigeon, the grey dove he relies on so heavily:
 about this Anna : <RU bosses asking about Anna, some  girl who feeds the truck drivers. Why do they want to take her into protective custody ?  >
Johnny knew she had never left the East of Ukraine, she is a dispassionate, calm and focused girl, and a girl Johnny knew as a friend, she was very kind and funny with him, the first time they met, so he has concern ,  what is up with her ?

five minutes after all this, the special assistant to Petro Poroshenko sends a query about his availability for an upcoming  inter regional government management conference in Zhitomir. The President wished to introduce Johnny along with the European Central Bank's Public Administration Liaison :\ecb.europa.eu/ecb/
 Johnny checks his schedule and quickly agrees, although he will need to reschedule some things .

Multitasking  and getting antsy about too many things, seldom sitting : Johnny gets up from his desk to work his secret messaging system, the carrier pigeons, he is intentionally being not - encrypted today, allowing them to see and hear all his digital junk: he gets the bulk dump from the psychological analysis team, about the hires for the factory projects (actually there is a set of 3 separate factory consortium forming)

Unwrapping the note from the pigeon's leg, in Urdu,
 it's written from his personal security manager Imran:
"your personal risk is greatly increased, exercise caution in public today"
from another source, flying into the little coop in his office balcony
An unusual variant,  Black and white  pigeon arrives next :
"all elements are controlled for your defense, others are at risk"
there is a code with the message on the pigeon leg, a lemon with the sun to the left, Johnny breaks his tensions to think about it all,   quickly  he is doing 3 sets of 17 pushups.

Johnny's Uzbek guest soon enters :  Umid,
/ he's dressed in a sort of Urban Outfitters version of Uzbek fashion/
Umid, he  has a half crazy grin on his face, he's been joking with Alyosha: (Johnny's secretary)      

something about "your fortune, ..... interposed "with Tea"/

Johnny: "Umid-iji my friend , later on, we need to meet the special emissary from Turkmenistan, they are a very formal people , and today is their National Revival and Unity Holiday, do you mind being my guest later on , at the Reception dinner ?


Umid : well, I'd certainly like to meet my colleagues from Turkmenistan, chat a bit about business and the like https://www.ecb.europa.eu/events/pdf/

Johnny  :  For now,  we have an agenda, some work at the factory , then the formal dinner,
and perhaps later a bit of play, shall we ?

Umid :  How is it going Zhenya ?

Johnny : "really it's a shit storm, my inner investors group continues to request anonymity, the Russians want to take credit for the components of their  initial Peace and reconstruction plan, in attracting The Consortium /persons/, Consortium strategy continues to allow that,  to some extent ,  give them credit,  the Ukraine central government  continues to distrust the  pace of our business agenda , yet they're being cooperative about it, they simply want a bigger piece of the action going through their hands , and they want greater clarity about the Private Security forces we've retained /  the USA/ EU, they want an absurd amount of trivial details to green light what we need, to move forward, and our Saudi partners have delayed a payment to the investment fund, due to the greater involvement by  Iran in the DPR investment and reconstruction portfolio, now there is growing concern about a micro-conflict, if the trade and transit issues fail to resolve quickly.

News comes across the TV screen in Johnny's office : an unusual early morning press briefing from the White House ,
  President Ryan to announce measures concerning canceling Russian sanctions lifting 
in light of recent incident on the Black Sea, and massing of Russian troops on the Turkish border for live fire military exercises. 

Johnny, Tea Umid?
Umid : No thanks, I had mine earlier. let's go.
