The name of the Inté Naychonar, the idea of international communism, could not be better, both nominally and in terms of propaganda. Of course, the difficulties in popularizing this kind of computer network are very enormous, and the greatest obstacle is not others, but the departments under the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, the Secretariat, the House of Nationalities, and the Council of Ministers, which together there are nearly 100 departments.

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union had a computer network, but it did not form a network that extended to the whole Union, and this was where the resistance came from, because the computers used by each department were networked with the institutions of its own department, and even the computer software was specially customized for the sake of secrecy, so it can be said that the computers of each department were different. This attitude of various departments made the Soviet Union not only not lag behind in the process of developing computers in the early stage, but in some places it was a little faster than the United States, but just like the process of many works in the Soviet Union, in the later stage, the help became a resistance.

As an ordinary person who does not know much about computer networks, Serov's most intuitive feeling is reflected in one aspect, that is, if the Soviet Union can promote the Internet earlier than the United States, it is likely to reverse the current unfavorable propaganda situation. New technologies will break Americans' public opinion advantage. As the first vice chairman of the KGB, he can also see that breaking the public opinion advantage of the Americans is of course not to achieve equality, but to take this public opinion advantage into his own hands.

It can be said that Serov, as the first deputy chairman of the KGB, is more interested in cybernetics than experts like Academician Glushkov and Colonel Koskitov, and the progress of technology will make the KGB more comfortable in this kind of department, after all, the KGB is not only an intelligence department, it is only a part of the KGB's work, and the current KGB is still an important part of the Soviet police system, and the emergence of the Internet will greatly improve the operational efficiency of the KGB.

Academician Glushkov and Colonel Koskitov would not have thought of it. Their conversation today will make the entire department of the KGB a strong reinforcement for cybernetics, and of course the KGB's support is not for nothing. When mentioning this matter to the security cadres within the department, Serov mainly mentioned the great improvement of the monitoring ability of the whole alliance, which is naturally the most exciting thing for every security cadre, and the anti-rebel workers in this line of work have a common wish, that is, they hope that there are no secrets in this world in their eyes.

"The first step in building the Internet was to break down the independent computer customization of each department. Otherwise, it will become a local area network, which will not develop the advantages of the Internet! Serov painted a big picture for the two cybernetics experts. All kinds of benefits are as if he has seen them with his own eyes, of course he has seen them with his own eyes, and he almost became an otaku who can live with just a network cable.

"It's difficult, there may be no progress in a few years, the interests of the departments are different, and it takes time to persuade them!" Serov shrugged his shoulders helplessly and hoped that the two experts would be mentally prepared, saying, "Even the intellectual class must have a very strong opposition, and maybe they will think that the KGB is ready to use this network to monitor the whole society." ”

These people are not wrong in their fears. If it were not for the comparative monitoring of society as a whole, the KGB would have naturally supported the establishment of the Internet, but it was definitely not so zealous. Even Serov, if the Internet is born in the Soviet Union in the future, it is foreseeable that the power and importance of the Seventh and Eighth Main Directorates of the KGB will be greatly increased. and the current First and Second Directorates, which will not become auxiliary institutions.

The three of them talked for a whole day, and Serov used the national conditions of the Soviet Union to dispel the more idealistic ideas of the two of them, from technology and funds to the interests between departments. It can't be solved in ten years. Technically, you can't just build a batch of tube computers and then make them obsolete. Americans can do that, people have money. Wouldn't it be idle for the Soviet Union to do this?

Sent the two away Serov thought for a moment. A telephone call was made to the director of the Seventh Directorate, and the ternary computer research group, which was subordinate to the General Directorate of Military Administration, was transferred to the management of the Seventh Directorate. As for the group of scientists of Academician Sukachev, there is no need for them, the military and agriculture are not separated, and the seven sets of TV stations of the motherland in the previous life are not agricultural and military channels......

"You're interested in cybernetics? Yuri! "The newly appointed NKVD, an old friend of Serov and a remnant of Beria's party, Lieutenant General Alexey, came to the office of the First Deputy Chairman, and in the past few days Serov and a group of specialists have learned computer knowledge, and the entire KGB knows about it.

"Wrong. I'm not interested in cybernetics, I'm very interested in control! Serov had nothing to hide in front of his old friend, and he just said what he thought, and looked up directly into Alexey's perceptive eyes, which were appreciative and agreeable.

"A real KGB!" Alexey didn't know if he was talking about Serov or himself. Or both.

There are many of the most important characteristics that a real KGB can have, but the most basic one should be loyalty. At present, Khrushchev's reforms are the most intuitive feeling that Serov can have, that is, the thaw of the Soviet cultural circles, in fact, Fortseva should have felt the information in this regard earlier, which of course has mixed results. Serov has asked Major General Kadpov to keep a close eye on the movements in this regard, and to record the intellectuals who have recently been quite critical of the Soviet Union, after all, the free country needs them, and this is also for the good of these people, and in the United States these people can be scolded even more bitterly.

The best way to interpret this loyalty of the KGB is to destroy the enemies of the state, and heavyweight enemies. It is a pity that there is no such person as Malenkov to show the loyalty of the KGB now. In a sense, Serov is also waiting for the historical coup d'état.

Of course, he had more important things to do, and Khrushchev was having a good time talking with the visiting Cuban delegation. It is estimated that the result of the talks will be that the Soviet Union is ready to eat all the sugar produced in Cuba. The security cadre next to him was not Serov alone, but also the head of another powerful department, and this person Serov knew his former immediate boss, General Serov, the former chairman of the Soviet State Security Council and the current head of the GRU. Because of the Pyotr Popov and Pyongkovsky cases, General Serov was transferred to the GRU as the head of the bureau, but what is a little stronger than history is that Serov discovered two people earlier so he did not cause huge losses, and General Serov's fate was not as bumpy as in history, at least not for the time being.

"Long time no see, Yuri! You are now the first deputy chairman of the National Security Council, and Shelepin has already gone to work in the Secretariat, and it seems that sooner or later the National Security Council will fall into your hands! General Serov saw Serov and said with great emotion. It can be said that half of the reasons why this young man left the State Security Council was because of this young man, and the other half was because of his personal education with Marshal Zhukov, which caused Khrushchev unease. After he left the State Security Council, the Third Main Directorate was quickly formed as a sword against Zhukov, and the head of the Main Directorate of Military Administration was this young man.

It's so young, it's so young! General Serov also had to admit that the age of Serov in front of him was only seen during the Great Patriotic War or earlier. Because of the Great Patriotic War, the Soviet Union had a shortage of adult men, and many young cadres were activated, but it is still rare for Serov to climb so fast, and only Semychasny, who is also the rising Azerbaijan, can hold him down.

"Hello, old chairman!" It can be said that a large part of the reason for the departure of the former KGB chairman was because he captured Peter Popov, and now he thought it would be embarrassing for the two sides to meet. But it did not occur to me that General Serov did not have much resentment.

As for the fact that Serov mentioned that he would succeed the KGB Serov, he did not answer, firstly, Serov was wrong, secondly, Khrushchev was in the dacha in the forest, and it was better for the KGB and the GRU to not talk about these sensitive issues.

The GRU is a specialized intelligence agency of the Red Army, mainly concentrated in the military field, and like the KGB, the GRU also has its own global intelligence network, and there are many jokes about the GRU within the KGB.

The KGB's worst enemy is not the CIA, not MI6, not the FBI, but the GRU.

The security cadres of the KGB had the necessary skills to recognize a GRU at a glance in any situation and environment. Any GRU sent from within the Soviet Union to a foreign country would be the first to leak and find out that they were the KGB.

Jokes such as these are a good example of the relationship between the KGB and the GRU, and one of the GRU's resident lieutenant generals serves as the KGB's representative to the GRU, which means that the Soviet Union's intelligence work is dominated by the KGB. Historically, the semonial of Semychasny by Brezhnev was the sudden death of the KGB representative in the GRU during military exercises.

Soon the conversation between Khrushchev and the Cuban delegation ended, and one of the guards came out and saluted the two and said, "Senior General Serov, Lieutenant General Serov, First Secretary, please come in!" The guards also felt that the names of the two were a little awkward, and the tone of their voices was a little strange.

The two men followed the guards and walked through the snow of the forest path to Khrushchev's dacha. (To be continued.) )
