Big Time 1958 Chapter 190

"Congratulations to the athletes of the motherland for this good result, don't get me wrong, I'm not here to help you celebrate, our Soviet Union is the world's No. 1, not now or in the future. It seems that this result will become the norm in our country in the future. , there is no second place in competitive sports, and there can only be one country that ranks first in the overall gold medal list in the future, and that is our Soviet Union!" To say that the whole Soviet Union is not as powerful as Serov, the way he brags is also very special, not to prove that he is right. The propaganda of athletes' achievements shows the strength of the entire Soviet Union from the side, and the final result is the same.

   This is of course reason to be happy. Shelov made a small profit of three million after accounting, and did not act in vain. At the same time, let the United States taste the taste of failure. From today, a gossip will spread in Italy. Serov once challenged the US ambassador to Italy, but the US ambassador did not accept it. Of course, this will not bring some actual losses to the United States, but it is an indisputable fact that the Olympic gold medal list also shows the strength of a country. Sports power is often related to the country's comprehensive strength, which no country will deny.

  If anyone doubts this point, the Italians will not do it at first, because after the Soviet Union and the United States, Italy ranks third in the gold medal list of the Rome Olympics. No matter from any point of view, Italy's Olympic Games are quite successful this time.

Serov, who has achieved a win-win situation, entertained these Soviet athletes and found a hotel to celebrate. As long as there is everything in Italy to make these athletes happy, at the same time, he patted his chest and assured that he had found a place for them to go on vacation. brilliant.

   As for what the Americans will say about this defeat, Serov will not look at it. Only the winner can enjoy the joy, and who will care what the loser thinks in his heart. How one day the United States lost all-round competition with the Soviet Union. At that time, Serov can step on the corpses of Americans to prove that the US government has been a bunch of idiots for two hundred years. The whole country is the slave of the capitalists, but the advantage of occupying the geographical position is not hit. At that time, no matter how he puts **** on the head of the Americans, no country will come out to speak for the Americans, and even the people of their own countries will jump out and prove that Serov is right.

This trip to Italy can also come to an end. All contracts have been finalized. The KGB's presence in Italy will only become stronger and stronger. This time, Serov, who spent his blood in Italy, helped the Italian government at least solve the problems of tens of thousands of people. Employment problems, of course, are not for nothing, as long as Shelepin starts to lay off KGB agents. Serov would send KGB cadres with rich work experience to Italy to serve as cadres in these factories.

   is fair, right? At least there are many things in the light industry in Italy that are of interest to the KGB. For the same electric fan, the Italian products are energy-efficient and silent. The Soviet-made ones are noisy and cost-effective. Of course, we should learn from the Italians. In order to prevent Italy There is no spirit of internationalism. If you don't teach yourself, it's normal to send some agents to prevent future troubles. It's best if you can exchange it. If you can't reach an agreement, you can steal it…

   At the Minsk Railway Station, Serov and Valya kissed goodbye, nodded to a row of female agents behind his wife, and got a positive response. Serov, who tidied up his clothes, watched his wife turn to Kyiv. It has to be said that the Soviet highway network must be reformed. At least the European part should find a way to develop a new architectural model. Otherwise, this road condition will delay the strength of the Soviet Union sooner or later, and the development of the Soviet Union is greatly constrained by the geographical conditions of the cold zone. Shelov must admit this.

   Tundra exists in more than 80% of the country, like the long winter in Siberia, half of the Soviet Union. In this kind of land, it is unreasonable to build a road network first. A new expressway only needs to go through a rotation of four seasons, and it is no different from a muddy dirt road in the second year. The national highway network is not realistic at all. The Soviet Union has been building railways to solve this thorny problem, and at the same time constantly upgrading domestic railways. The electrification of railways in the Soviet Union has been ahead of the United States since the 1960s, but it still cannot change the logistics. Bad disadvantage.

At least the European part of the Soviet Union should promote the construction of the road network, but the expressway network in Asia can only be a supplement to the railway. For example, a local high-speed network has been built in Central Asia, the Far East and near Lake Baikal, relying on the Trans-Siberian Railway to maintain smooth logistics. .

  The construction is also affected by the climate. The thicker the walls of high-rise buildings are built toward the north, the 50th wall may be cracked due to the sudden cold winter, and the cost of this is huge. If the Soviet Union opened the household registration system, the Soviet population in Siberia could travel to Europe in a few decades and never return. There is no need to worry about Siberia being occupied by other countries. Serov himself was a Northeasterner in his last life, and he still does not know the population of the Northeast. Is it always negative growth? Who would want to live in such a cold place if they could move freely?

It seems that since this year, Serov has entered the Kremlin alone a lot more times. In the past, he was still laughing at Shelepin, saying that Shelepin was about to set up his home next to Khrushchev's office. almost. The KGB is the department that enters the Kremlin most often. Various reports are handed over to Khrushchev's desk through the KGB. Serov wants to report the situation in Italy to Khrushchev, and naturally this hurdle cannot be avoided.

"Overall, we have opened up the Italian defenses with a novel design, and the future Italy is very likely to be a country like Yugoslavia, in fact, compared to when I was in Italy six years ago, between us and the Americans. The voice is a lot louder! In a sense, Europe is still the front line of our confrontation with the United States. It is not easy to achieve any results, and it is not easy to dismantle the European defense line of the United States.” Shelov took the The contracts signed with Italy in light industry, shipbuilding, and communications have made Khrushchev look over them one by one.

"Yes, it can be said that a gap has been opened in the capitalist camp, Italy is the Yugoslavia of the United States!" Khrushchev affirmed Serov's achievements in a loud voice, and then asked, "However, the Ministry of Communication Equipment Industry is right. Altai mobile phone system and Italian cooperation have some criticism, what do you think Yuri?"

"Altai's mobile phone system is undoubtedly very advanced, and I never deny it! The reason why I always insist on including communication equipment in the cooperation project also has my considerations! I am a KGB agent, and I will not Do things that endanger national security." Serov saluted and explained, "I want to promote the Soviet mobile phone system and squeeze out the copycat products that may appear in the United States. At the same time, it is also because there is still huge room for improvement in mobile phones. Our scientific research The agency is researching smaller and more comprehensive communication equipment, and people in other countries will find out that the Soviet Union is better! Countries that have accepted our previous generation Altai system must be consistent with us! Because we are the Soviet Union and the United States The technology is completely different, and the future benefits are unimaginable.”

   In front of the first secretary, Serov painted a good vision, which is different from some cadres who put satellites in Khrushchev. He is very confident in his work and can completely realize these visions.

  The future depicted by Serov interested Khrushchev. Since the second half of Khrushchev's reign, he has also begun to get out of reality, otherwise the corn movement in the Soviet Union would not have paid a huge price. Thinking of this, a tangled question reappeared in Serov's mind, whether he would take the initiative to go inside this mine, or wait until the incident broke out. According to Khrushchev's order, he will attack the pompous winds that promote the corn movement in various places. Doubt that if the investigation starts now, the Soviet Union will lose a little less. If it waits a year for the corn movement to break out, it can make greater achievements and enhance Khrushchev's trust in the KGB.

"By the way, First Secretary, the rainy season in Sudan is coming soon. The huge corn piles in Sudan must be built in large warehouses and stored in the arid areas in the north near Egypt. Sudan's own construction industry and heavy industry are very backward. Sukache Academician Fu sent back a message that if the Soviet Union did not help Sudan build a large number of giant warehouses, more than 20% of Sudan's corn production would rot due to the arrival of the rainy season.” Serov still took a crucial step and chose to choose on this issue. Take the initiative to travel to mines, but still start from Sudan.

   Sure enough, this kind of phalanx of saving the country by curve has aroused Khrushchev's interest. If a country learns from the Soviet Union, especially from his own corn movement, Khrushchev as the initiator is very happy. In particular, a leader like Khrushchev, who always used his personal will to govern the country, was pleased to directly approve Serov's proposal, and his aid to Sudan was immediately launched.

   "I believe that General Aboud of Sudan will be very happy with this decision!" Shelov flattered the first secretary without hesitation, and then said that he would go back to study where to build large warehouses to help Sudan complete food reserves. The main reason is that he is afraid of the corn movement in Khrushchev's country, so he has to flee the Kremlin as soon as possible, in case the gentleman's first secretary asks him to go to various places to investigate the corn movement.

Returning to the Third General Administration, Serov convened a group of operational staff to discuss and set the site for the construction of a large warehouse at Wadi Halfa in northern Sudan. Wadi Halfa is very close to the border with Egypt, where Sudan is located. It is an important location for trade with Egypt, but Shelov chose the location there because of operational considerations. If the domestic corn problem breaks out, Sudan has the intention of not cooperating, and it is also convenient to send troops from Aswan. (To be continued~^~)
