Chapter 640 The phone appears

   A traitor, and a traitor with a high level, can prove a word, imperialism will never die. This traitor must not be in the KGB, and holding accountable is no joke. One person fell into Serov’s sight, the secretary of Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, Shevchenko. But this guy hasn’t left the country yet. Forget it, Serov can’t force this person to be a traitor now.

Then this matter can be discussed later. There are many things that Serov needs to do, such as being a salesman. After waiting for so many years, Serov can finally wait for something. Soviet engineer Leonid Kupriyanovich, With the support of the KGB for ten years, he finally came up with what Serov had always needed, a portable phone, a cell phone. The phone has finally shrunk to a size that can fit in a briefcase, and the cost is around 240 rubles. That’s two months’ wages for the average Soviet man.

The mobile phone is currently in front of Serov, and the inventor Leonid Kupriyanovich, an engineer who has worked for the KGB for more than ten years, sits carefully in the chair and looks at the Lubyanka. ‘s owner.

“That is to say, the call quality of 500 kilometers can be guaranteed?” Shelov tilted his head and fiddled with the black brick in his hand. The mobile phone was about 20 centimeters long. effect. Similar to the big brother he saw when he was a child.

“Yes, if we build enough signal towers west of the Ural Mountains, I believe that we can cover the whole country.” Leonid Kuprianovich made his proposal cautiously. He is not an engineer who only knows research. , understand the cost of building so many towers. For such a large expenditure, I don’t know how much the government and the central government will invest.

“West of the Ural Mountains? What about Siberia? Don’t care? Don’t the people over there need mobile phones?” Serov looked like you were too young, and deeply criticized the other party’s petty arrogance, “No matter how much it costs, we will have the whole People in the Soviet Union use mobile phones, and we hope that all citizens can use them. It turned out that the cost could not come down, so it has been unable to launch it, otherwise it should have been equipped to the people of the whole country a few years ago.”

  Alfa car phone has been launched for ten years. Now it is not only common in the Soviet Union and its allies, but also everywhere in Italy. More than half of the countries in Eurasia have car phones. Even the United States has a large number of car phones, of course, those are American, and have nothing to do with the Soviet system.

This is one of the mouth-cannon projects of the Ministry of Foreign Trade of the Soviet Union and the United States every year, that is, whether the car phone in the United States has copied the Alpha phone. After the appearance of the Alpha phone, the automobile industry in the United States, Germany and Japan has installed car phones. The United States took advantage of its financial advantages and even developed a better car phone than the Soviet Union. It is not a big deal to spend more than one billion dollars.

   “Leave this to me. Good things must be enjoyed by the people.” Serov installed the first batch of mobile phones. He needs to take these samples to the Kremlin and convince other members of the Central Presidium.

Inflation always occurs in the United States, and deflation always occurs in the Soviet Union. Americans feel that the dollar is becoming less and less valuable. In the Soviet Union, it is the opposite. The Soviet ruble can theoretically buy a lot of things. Often faced with the situation is sold out…

  Who made the wages in the Soviet Union keep increasing, but prices remained fixed. At least the prices of vegetables in the vegetable market have not changed in ten years, and the same is true for fish and meat. Serov implements the adjustable wrench of justice from the sky, and the price is directly stamped on it, which means that the price will never change.

Therefore, the appearance of mobile phones is a good thing. It can eliminate the wages in the pockets of some Soviet people. If people have no money in their hands, they will naturally not empty the optional stores. This will not cause all kinds of sold out situations. .

Otherwise, the KGB kept looting and couldn’t meet the strong demand of the Soviet people. They put a box of mobile phones in front of the members of the Central Presidium. Serov began to introduce the significance of this, “This will be an information revolution, think about a People can communicate directly with relatives in Vladivostok and Moscow, what does this mean, the people will be with the central government, there will be no gaps between us, there will be no situation in the future where things will happen that we don’t know about, and at the same time The illegal behavior of local cadres is avoided, and even the National Security Committee or the NKVD can lay off some members at that time, which can also save our expenses.”

   Serov talked about the information society that he never believed in. That’s right, he never believed in it. He had seen a society filled with smartphones everywhere, but he didn’t find any difference from an industrial society except that it was easier to play games. Although I don’t believe it, the Soviet Union must take the lead in the information industry. There is nothing wrong with this. Many of the information industries in the Soviet Union started late and were not separated by the United States. U.S.

“Can the call be kept open within 500 kilometers?” Brezhnev fiddled with this brick-like thing with great interest. He didn’t remember what industry or layout Serov said, just remember this Practical functions, very convenient.

Serov almost forgot, talking to Brezhnev would be better simple and effective, nodded and said, “Yes, we can guarantee smooth communication within 500 kilometers. If we build more signal towers, we can cover the entire Soviet Union, and even our Our allies can also be like us, so that all their information will be controlled in our hands. Furthermore, we can use our mobile phones to earn a lot of foreign exchange and suppress our enemy’s related industries.”

   “It’s another big expense!” Mazulov, the first vice chairman of the Council of Ministers, smiled and said, “But the prospects sound good. Has the KGB tested the performance of the mobile phone? Can it be guaranteed?”

“This kind of investment is worth it. It is developed as a big project. The factory will be built immediately, the signal towers will be set up immediately, and the relevant patents will be recorded. But are the Italian patents still safe?” Brezhnev simply He gave some orders and asked Serov about Italy.

“No problem, many Italian companies have cooperated with us, and the Alpha car phone is also inseparable from our technical support. If the Italians know that there is something new, they will be very happy, maybe there are French people this time. ‘ Sheloff nodded in assurance.

   “The speed of building the factory must reflect our efficiency. Comrade Kirilenko should pay more attention to the progress.” Shelepin, chairman of the Supreme Soviet, looked at Brezhnev’s comrade-in-arms.

   “Don’t worry, Kirilenko can handle this.” Brezhnev said, looking sideways at his comrades.

Brezhnev and Shelepin agreed successively, and Kosygin also said that there was no problem. He immediately selected a site to build a factory, allocated funds to put the mobile phone into production, and the troika had no objection, and immediately issued a document in writing to formulate a production plan for all departments to go to. implement.

“If you don’t call me uncle, then we can still talk. If you call me that next time, then you won’t come again.” Shelov looked unbearable, looking at him who was not much younger than himself people. Yuri Brezhnev, the son of Brezhnev, the current Soviet general secretary, as for the two people who followed the eldest son, they were eating in the cafeteria below. Serov knew them, and even the identity certificate was made by him personally. of.

The mobile phone industry has been designated as a key development industry, the factory has been selected and the construction has started, and the location of the signal towers in various places has been quickly tested by the cadres of the Seventh General Administration. . Large-scale production will begin within half a year. At this stage, the KGB factory will carry out preliminary production, and the produced mobile phones will be distributed to major ministries and local leading cadres. The tycoon Serov will first equip Valya with one. Anyway, the other party is the deputy minister of the Ministry of Education, and the level is sufficient.

“Then, Chairman Serov, I want to participate in the delegation to Italy. My father’s intention is to let me ask you what you mean.” Yuri Brezhnev’s attitude was relatively calm, he knew that Serov was in the security field of the Soviet Union. Words are very important, if he does not agree with the general secretary’s son to go abroad, then he will never go out.

“You want to go abroad?” Serov touched his chin. It was not impossible. After thinking about it, he finally understood that Brezhnev, an old fox who was not too tired, was testing him again, but this time with his son. , so he said, “You are a cadre of the Ministry of Foreign Trade. There is nothing wrong. The negotiation team to Italy will start in three months, and then let Comrade Zweigon arrange your protection work, you know , if some countries know your identity, it is impossible to guarantee that there will be no bad thoughts.”

“There is no problem with my uncle, but in the field of security, my father still wants to see your opinion.” Yuri Brezhnev seemed to be relieved and smiled, “Andrei said you are harsh, It doesn’t seem so.”

   The uncle in his mouth is naturally Tsvigon, Andrei is Tsvigon’s son, and Tsvigon’s wife is the eldest son’s aunt, Serov waved his hand to indicate nothing, and then invited the other party to eat in the cafeteria. In the past year, it seems that more and more family members are taking food from Lubyanka.

Under the attention of the Soviet troika, some mobile phone factories appeared at lightning speed, and the Soviet Union’s advantage in efficiency was vividly realized. Signal towers in major cities in Moscow, Leningrad, Kyiv, Minsk and surrounding areas Construction is also unfolding rapidly in the eyes of the Kremlin. Even the printed promotional posters have been prepared, and as soon as mobile phones enter the market, the publicity will soon follow. (To be continued~^~)
