Chapter 127: Mobile Phone

"Any comments?" Xie Lepin blew on the hot coffee in front of him and asked with a rare look of leisure.

"No, it's just a piece of waste paper! What can he do to me? Serov's reaction was a surprise to Shelepin, and if it were a normal situation, the normal reaction of this Caspian tiger would have been to jump up and bite. Even the old marshal of the Ministry of Defense dared to jump up and bite it, there is no reason why he would let Lysenko go......

The problem was that Serov was in an abnormal reaction, and Lysenko's status as a scientist saved his life. If Serov really holds a grudge, he only needs to wait for the passage of time to prove that Sukachev's theory is correct, and then Lysenko can let him do whatever he wants. But Serov would not do this, so that the use of politics to interfere in scientific research is no different from Lysenko.

What's more, Lysenko's mistake was to veto the whole with partial mistakes, not really ignorant of learning, Lysenko still made a lot of contributions to the Soviet Union back then, if Serov did things like Lysenko, it might have a very bad impact on the scientific community, and this kind of bad consequences were avoided by Serov since he was working.

"Old secretary, don't talk about such trivial things! I'm here today for funding! "I always felt that something was wrong, and after thinking about it for a long time, Serov understood that the furnishings of Shelepin's office had changed, and the sofa that could lie down was gone, which made him twist very differently.

But it didn't matter, Serov stretched his body in a difficult posture, and said lazily, "Old secretary, I need two million rubles to do research!" Can you say hello to the Ministry of Finance and Funds, our General Administration has no money to spare! ”

"Do you care if I want money? Don't you have the funds in your hands? Sherepin was very surprised, and stared at his ace director with an unkind look, if Serov dared to say that he had no money, the anti-corruption department of the Second Main Directorate should have a job. Obviously, he has so much money overseas from the KGB in his hands. How dare you run to 11 Lubyanka Plaza and say that you have no money?

"That's not rubles! Domestic research gives them dollars, marks, francs? It's better to give them toilet paper directly to solve their life problems......" Serov's answer relieved Sherepin that his ace chief was not corrupt.

"What project?" Scientific research, Xie Lepin is very supportive, he believes in the power of science and technology more than those old men, and the General Administration of Technology is in his hands, and it is obviously developing more rapidly. A variety of new types of monitoring equipment emerge in an endless stream.

Serov was not ambiguous and sent the prepared documents directly to Shelepin, which contained what he needed to promote. The year before last, the outstanding engineer of the Soviet Union, Leonid . Kupriyanovich invented the mobile phone of the ЛК-1 type. In the last year, he has made further improvements to his mobile phone. Reduced from 3 kg to 500 grams (including batteries) and reduced to the size of two cigarette packs, the device can be used to make calls anywhere in the city and to any landline.

This is when Serov was in the United States, he deeply felt that communication remained unchanged, and he remembered that there was such a thing as a mobile phone. After returning to China, he immediately summoned the General Directorate of Technology Management for research and development, but was told by Isenmodny that mobile phones had already appeared, and put the inventor Leonid . Kupriyanovich came to him, and Serov learned that the first place where mobile phones appeared was not the United States, but the Soviet Union.

With a thoughtful look, Shelepin finally put down the document and said disoptimisticly, "Leonid. I have known about the invention of Comrade Kupriyanovich for a long time. Yuri, you may not know much about the situation if you are not in the country! Ordinary people simply can't afford mobile phones. The price of a mobile phone is equivalent to the price of a television set, which is a huge cost for the people! ”

It means that it can't be promoted, the cost is too high but there is no profit? Serov patted his head, this question again, the originator of mobile phones was just abandoned? This is not good, I heard Sherepin say. "The Academy of Sciences has taken another more cost-effective approach, the base station is developed by the Voronezh Research Institute of Communications Sciences, and the antenna system is developed by the Moscow State Special Engineering Design Institute. Ready to put in the car as a car phone ......"

"Old secretary, I understand!" Just when Sherepin thought that his ace chief was not entangled, Serov continued unmoved. "It seems that two million rubles is far from enough, add two million!"

"Why do you need money? Didn't I tell you, the Altai system car phone of the Academy of Sciences is being developed? "Shelepin found that there was a communication barrier with Serov, and sometimes Serov showed this kind of brainlessness.

"This kind of development idea is a dead brain!" Just kidding, car phone? Can that stuff compare to a cell phone? Have a car to have a phone? This is the fifties, how many people in the USSR had cars? And how many people will install a phone in a car, with the development of technology, the price of mobile phones will definitely decrease, and car phones limit the development of mobile phones! Serov can conclude that even if the United States starts to develop mobile phones after 20 years, it will soon be able to leave the Soviet Union behind, and this is how history develops, the Soviet Union took a detour and tied the development of mobile phones to the car.

Serov couldn't see this happening, and said directly, "Old secretary, let's talk about the issue of mobile phones, just like the contact between our KGB, car phones are obviously very inappropriate!" All we need is a phone that can fit in the pocket of the uniform, and if you don't give me money, I'll live here today! Not only do I live here today, but I will stay here in the future, you can consider adding me an extra bed at 11 Rubyanka Plaza! The beds in the inner prison are okay too, they are empty anyway, I don't care......"

Sherepin has already released most of the prisoners of the Inner Prison at Lubyanka Square 11, and the current Inner Prison is in vain, as Lieutenant General Alexey, who is directly in charge of the Inner Prison, knows best, and Serov, although he has rarely been in the country for a year, knows about it.

"Believe it or not, I removed you from the position of vice chairman!" Sherepin's expression was quite exciting, Serov dared to bargain with himself now, not because he felt threatened, but because he felt that Serov would not be unreasonable, so it seems that this matter still needs to be considered.

"Old secretary, the removal of my post as deputy chairman needs to be discussed at a plenary meeting of the KGB Presidium, and then sent to the Central Presidium for approval! Of course, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that even if you remove me, I still want this money! Serov, who had already gotten up, returned to the difficult posture just now, and lay directly on the sofa where he could only sit, like a hooligan, "The development of technology will definitely make mobile phones smaller and smaller, then let the Academy of Sciences develop vehicle-mounted mobility, and I will let the General Administration of Technology develop handheld mobile phones, I will definitely be faster than they promote......"

"I want to start by promoting it in all KGB garrisons, including border military districts and internal affairs units, and all officers above the rank of major have mobile phones, so that the KGB can communicate more smoothly! However, I can help the Academy of Sciences to promote the Altai system to Italy as a place to accumulate experimental experience...... "Serov changed his perspective, from the perspective of national security, in short, he must knock out the money from Shelepin.

I have to say that because of Serov's awakening, Italy is the place that has changed the most, at least he thinks of any products that make money and new technologies, and will carry out the first step of manufacturing in Italy, but I don't know how many chicken farts in Italy are contributed by him, a KGB agent, according to Western algorithms, Serov thinks that he completely deserves to be called an old friend of the Italian people.

Serov, who came out of Lubyanka Square No. 11, was refreshed, got into the car with Sherepin's presidential order in his hand, and said to Isemotny easily, "Go to the Ministry of Finance!" Serov, who was immersed in excitement, didn't even notice that his voice had changed tone.

Serov, who had a huge amount of money in his pocket, returned to the headquarters of the General Directorate of Military Administration, although he did not get all the funds back, but the huge sum of one million rubles he brought back could still dry the mouth, at least Leonid in front of him. Kupriyanovich is so.

Taking off his hat, military uniform and gloves, Serov couldn't help but complain, "Comrade Kupriyanovich, it's really hard for you to wait here so late, it's not easy to ask for this money, I'm almost hanging myself on the Lubyanka!" But the result is good, I've seen your invention! Although I can only maintain communication in the city at the moment, you can rest assured, I am going to Siberia to shave potatoes, and I will also support your research! ”

"Thank you for your support, Deputy Chairman Serov! The country chose the car mobile phone, and I thought my research was over! I should be thanking you! Kupriyanovich, dressed in a black suit, thanked him very excitedly.

"Mobile phones are for people, not cars! I have already seen samples of the Altai system, the quality is good, the weight problem is too obvious! Handheld phones are for the people, I hope you can serve the KGB in the General Administration of Technology, I believe that the huge technical capabilities of the General Administration of Technology will play a great role in your research! You're still too small alone! Almost without any hesitation, Serov co-opted the inventor of the mobile phone, put Kupriyanovich in the KGB, worked as a researcher at the Institute of Electronics of the Main Directorate of Technology Administration.

Serov directly took out a stack of million rubles from the table, stuffed it into Kupriyanovich's hands, put the rest of the money in a bag and said, "Tomorrow you will go to work at the Main Directorate of Technical Administration, and the rank will be set at Major first!" As a technical officer, I would like the entire Soviet Union to have a mobile phone that can fit in your pocket......"

"Deputy Chairman Serov, there will be such a day! I will definitely ensure the quality and reduce the cost, so that our people can use handheld mobile phones, and they can contact friends thousands of miles away without leaving home! Kupriyanovich said excitedly. (To be continued.) )
