Once upon a time, in Russia, there was a boy who wanted to be the president when he grew up. He loved everything about the government and dreamed of making the country a better place. One day, he found a mine while exploring the countryside. Excited about his discovery, he immediately went to the general in charge of the government mines to report his find. The general was impressed with the boy's initiative and offered him a scholarship to college to study mining engineering. Years passed and the boy graduated with honors. He became a successful mining engineer and eventually rose to the position of president. And so, the boy who once dreamed of being president, had now become one! And every time he looked back at that mine, he smiled and thanked the general who believed in him.
