Big Time 1958

   It seems that Serov has forgotten one thing for a long time. The problem of the Soviet Union is not a problem of the Soviet Union, but generally exists in socialist countries. Since such problems exist, they do not necessarily need to be solved in the Soviet Union first. You can find a country that has this kind of problem first and see what the situation is. Cybernetics is not necessarily useful, but if it does, who knows what's going on if you haven't tried it?

   At this time, the friends of the Soviet Union have value. In terms of loyalty, in fact, he should have started from Bulgaria. Geographically, however, he did not believe that under the care of the Soviet Union, a single country would still appear in disaster due to the promotion of cybernetics. The GDR is located on the front line. If it is really effective, it will first change the atmosphere of the GDR. The bureaucracy in the GDR must exist, but the bureaucracy in this country is not that powerful for the Soviet Union. Opinion is certainly not as strong as it was in the Soviet Union, and it is not difficult to suppress it temporarily.

  Persimmons are also called soft pinch first? Serov won't know about the south, south, north and west just because he is the first vice-chairman of the KGB, and the boss is still strong enough, and really treats other departments as one thing. As long as it is effective, the use of these allies to influence the Soviet Union in the future is acceptable.

"The establishment of this kind of network will make it easier for us to control the movements of the GDR. If I had known your purpose, I should have called Lieutenant General Gresco together, and our two general offices may act faster. "Lieutenant General Shevalev said to Serov after Markus Wolf had left.

Lieutenant General   Gresco is the new director of the General Directorate of Surveillance and Investigation Management, ranking seventh within the KGB, and Lieutenant General Shevalev, the director of the Eighth General Directorate, is working together on electronic investigations, but the focus of the two is different. Together, the two general bureaus concentrated 80% of the electronic reconnaissance force of the KGB.

"The movement to control the GDR is only a part of it. If the goal is limited to only one country, it will be a little short-sighted. In the name of academics, we will first expand the network to the entire Warsaw Pact. We will complete the first in three years. Step!" Shelov didn't hide his purpose, and said directly, "Eastern Europe and our alliance must be integrated into a whole, our technology and academics are no worse than any country, and even from the standard of a country, the scientific research of the motherland is There are far more personnel than any country, but our potential is far less than that of the enemy. The ideals who are safe and sound let other departments continue to do it. Our department must take the initiative to do some swear words, improve our potential, and at the same time. To eliminate the enemy's potential."

"First Vice-Chairman, you seem to have a soft spot for cybernetics? I'll be honest, some of the proposals made by cybernetic scholars are really amazing, but the specific process is too much to discuss. You picked the GDR to promote this kind of I can probably guess the meaning behind the theory!" The meaning of Lieutenant General Shevalev's words is obvious, and this roundabout way of fighting has shown the seriousness of some problems.

"No one knows what the result of cybernetics will be. Maybe the effect is good, maybe it's just theoretically feasible. It doesn't matter. If we don't succeed, we will think of other ways, but we must not even have the courage to try. Your focus is always wrong, for us at the KGB, the really important thing is not the promotion of cybernetics, but the establishment and control of this computer network!” Serov reminded Lieutenant General Shevalev to pay attention to the real key points, don’t think too much For matters other than multiple powers, it is enough to regard the establishment of this computer network as an electronic monitoring platform, which is also in line with the consistent work style of the KGB.

If the    cybernetic system is useful, a natural enemy will appear immediately. This is the current controller of the economic operation of the Soviet Union, the Soviet planned economy and development committee. These expert mathematicians Shelov are very respected. You can’t say that they don’t work hard. A country of more than 20 million square kilometers with different geographical conditions can work in their hands, but in the market economy it becomes a piece of land. The ruins, in and of themselves, illustrate the capabilities of the Planning and Economic Commission. But the problem is that it is different now from the Stalin period. The development of science and technology has made more and more products, and the growth of consumption has made the simple life in the Soviet Union somewhat unrealistic. The amount of calculation has far exceeded that of the Stalin period. planning ability.

  According to the words of cybernetic scholars, with the current explosive capacity of science and technology, in 50 years, the Planning and Economic Commission of the Soviet Union may need to absorb all the college students of the entire Soviet Union. What a joke. Do other departments still exist? People have joined your Planning and Economic Commission. What are other departments doing? Watching you play math every day? Who doesn't want to see their own department stronger, Serov also hopes that the KGB can really know everything and be omnipotent...

Oh? Serov forgot one thing, according to the normal course of history, there will be no Soviet Union fifty years later. Thirty years later, the Soviet Union has disintegrated, and the mathematicians of the Planning and Economic Commission can find an American university to show the door.

   "The computing power of today's computers can't actually be trusted. Our computer production may need to be strengthened," Lieutenant General Shevalev sighed a little, "First Vice-Chairman, can't we wait?"

"There is not only the Soviet Union in the world. Think about the scenario where we first promote computer networks to the whole world. If our opponents complete this thing first, what kind of dilemma will we face in turn?" Serov said in a low voice. Said, "Once the computer network is controlled by the Americans, our original information disadvantage will become more obvious, and if it is reversed, we will be able to overtake. Today, the hundreds of thousands of people in the KGB can only achieve the world's major events and be quickly known by us. The future KGB will be able to understand everything in the world without leaving the office..."

   For Serov, the KGB is a part of himself. The stronger the military department of the Soviet Union, which integrates national security, foreign intelligence, and domestic security, the more secure he can feel. If the technology of the robot is now mature enough to replace the role of human beings, he will soon replace all seemingly unreliable forces with machines.

  The computer technology of the GDR is about the same as that of the Soviet Union in the next era. Of course, Serov did not know this. This is what Lieutenant General Shevalev told Serov after investigation.

   "In other words, you need some programming experts to discuss with the experts in the GDR? It's nothing, you can!" Serov understood what Lieutenant General Shevalev meant. This is normal, and not all Eastern European countries speak Russian. Speaking of this, Serov suddenly remembered that the computer is really a good thing. He can use this computer network to eliminate other languages ​​in the Soviet Union. Anyway, in the future, only the Russian version will be available. The promotion of Russian is more acceptable.

This is not something that will result from the first day of consultation between Serov and Lieutenant General Shevalev on the second day. Even with the cooperation of the German Stasi, it will not change the time needed for the experts from the two countries to run in, and the computer manufacturers and computer manufacturers. Breakthroughs in hardware technology all take time, and it takes time even for the KGB to go to Western Europe to steal products for comparison.

Another thing is that in Poland, with the organized and premeditated cooperation of the French, Algeria is now full of flames all over the country, and the Poles seem to have realized the style of liberators. . The French army of hundreds of thousands seems to be preparing for a decisive battle, and the Poles who feel good about themselves think so too. They seem to really think that the support of millions of Arabs can make the Algerian People's Army win this war.

"From the current situation, this decisive battle should break out in the second half of the year. If the French lose, Algeria's independence will be a foregone conclusion! What do the Poles think?" Serov calculated the time and felt that the decisive battle should be in the Cuban missile crisis. after. At that time, with the urination of the French, it will be more likely to take advantage of the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union in Cuba. The French are idiots if they don't take their chances. In this way, when the US and the Soviet Union are staring at Cuba, two wars will break out during this time period, one is China and India, the other is the military advisory group of France and Poland, the Communist Party of Algeria and the National Liberation Front Alliance. Leading People's Army?

"Comrade Korzinski is in a pretty good mood? I think he doesn't take the French army seriously!" Marcus Wolf replied with some amusing, "Should we help him or contact Egypt? Play a little part in this war!"

"It's useless. Even if the entire Egyptian army is dispatched, it will be difficult to defeat the French army on the frontal battlefield. The key point of victory or defeat is actually in terms of time. If our Polish comrades are smarter, prolonging the time is not without a chance of victory. , but if there is a decisive battle? It depends on luck..." In the final analysis, it was the Poles who rushed up. Originally, Serov was ready to sacrifice the strength of the Soviet Union, but now the Poles have jumped out to grab the son, which is not bad.

Now because of the Algerian war, the deficit of the French is still high. De Gaulle's persistence in this regard has already damaged his prestige. If a decisive battle wins everything, de Gaulle's prestige can even reach its peak, but if he loses, he may lose his prestige. To accompany the results of the currency reform, but this is a good thing for the Soviet Union, isn't it? If the French were not determined to maintain the face of their colonial empire, how could they have given the Soviet Union a chance to beat the French with their money? (To be continued~^~.)
