In 1986, the company heard about the Soviet pupil Katya Lychev.The friendly girl with blue eyes made a worthy substitute for the US "ambassador of peace" Samantha Smith.She traveled to the United States, talked with the head of government by Ronald Reagan.Katya Lycheva, photos that are printed form of publication, no time to give interviews.That's only in the 90s girl secretly disappeared, which caused a lot of variety of rumors.
Childhood
Katya Lycheva, biography which began its history June 10, 1974, grew up in a family of intellectuals working in science.Pope Alexander Lychev, its activities are carried out in a higher educational institution of the world economy.His mother, Marina Lycheva - in addition to being highly skilled, so also the candidate of economic sciences.Since childhood, parents are strongly developed her daughter, trying to form a multifaceted personality: from the age of four, she studied foreign language, engaged in sports sections at the same time studied at an English school and attended art classes, but also successfully passed the casting for the role in the movie.
Samantha Smith and Katya Lycheva
Whatever it was, but the popularity of the girl gave no acting, and a trip to the United States as a "goodwill ambassador".This happened in 1986.Its predecessor was the American Samantha Smith, who came to the Soviet Union in 1893, by special invitation Andropov.And in early 1985 it was decided to organize a return visit.Is holding a contest, the participants were about six thousand, but the choice fell on Katya.Travel Lychev US cities commented by journalists and correspondents of the Union of the United States.Of course, her performances have been memorized, and the level of spiritual openness is much inferior to Samantha.Despite this, Kate Lycheva still became an object to follow a huge number of teenagers.
Tears of despair
Paradoxically, despite this recognition, the girl was not quite friends.Most of my classmates did not take it, but only envy.They said that a huge number of applicants for the trip it was pushed through connections - have been the talk of family blood ties with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union.In fact, everything was much simpler: the girl chosen for its excellent English language skills and natural charm.
It is possible that some role was played by her grandmother, who at the time was an employee of the Soviet Union, the Commonwealth and the international relations, and his mother worked in the school, led by Alexander Yakovlev.In 1986, he became head of the department of the Central Committee of the CPSU.
Nevertheless, glory, that fell on Catherine, did not go to her advantage.Many of her peers were drawn away.She studied the girl at school quite well.Most of it came to government vehicles and taken by cities with a prepared program advocacy.The school Lycheva Katya went walking with her grandmother, but raising a child engaged exclusively mother, who kept a tight rein on Katya.It happens that the girl was crying from exhaustion in the stairwell, but still came home and sat for lessons.
up the ladder
In 1988, her mother Kathy has been a change in the work, she became the owner of scholarships François Mitterrand, and with her daughter moved to live in France.The young woman continued her studies at the Sorbonne, but was taking final exams in their own school.After Lycheva lived abroad, she has changed in the nature of affectedness were many, although it has always been really sincere person.
When her classmates celebrated the anniversary of the school, the girl did not come to the meeting, even though the invitation had been sent to her.After leaving the Soviet Union, Catherine is completely and cut off communication with the press.Since no information about it was not, journalists began to invent various stories: that she began to live with a wealthy businessman, became the elite prostitute.
And it was so: in 1995 became Lycheva graduate of the Sorbonne, received a degree in economics and a lawyer.While still a student her mother was seriously ill.After that, she became a member of Promotion Centre in Paris.
Buying apartments
After Lycheva Katya and her mother moved to France, her father quickly got himself a woman.It was rumored that it is nearing divorce, although it was kept in strict confidence.In order not to undermine the credibility of his daughter, Alexander bought another apartment in the same house, and then in the nearby area.Few people in the yard of the family loved them.They nicknamed capitalists.All interested in the question: "Where they have enough money to buy an apartment?" Here, truly, "the Soviet people in a bakery in a taxi do not go»! ..
say about what Kate Lycheva now pretty hard.Some of her classmates saw her last about 8 years ago.She arrived on an expensive jeep.His face remained the same, but the extra padding added.Ask her about her husband and children, and received the answer that at the moment a woman traveling and living for yourself.
Return to Russia
In 2000 Katya Lycheva arrived in Russia.Served as deputy head of the global community, the Ministry of Labour and social development, has been linked to the Ministry of Industry, also headed "United Aircraft Consortium."Her last position - the vice-president of "AvtoVAZ", which, according to journalists from Togliatti, the amount of her salary is one million rubles a month.Catherine singled luxurious house, but she lived there rarely.From Moscow came on the service truck only on issues related to the work.
According to the staff of "AvtoVAZ" Lycheva became vice president because of his good friend - Aleshin.At that time, he was director of the auto giant and gladly took her to the post.They were very warm and friendly relations.After Boris was removed from his post, everyone was sure that Kate is also gone.And so it happened, she was gone, but that's only in the decree.At your workplace will not be back soon.
