MTL - Big Time 1958-Chapter 962 father of the hydrogen bomb
This is the rhythm that Reagan liked. The establishment of the Soviet Mir space station was completed. From the side, it can be regarded as saving Reagan, who was trapped in the Libyan hostage crisis. In recent months, Reagan has focused on domestic matters, even attacking the Soviet Union with far less rhetoric. It was all the result of being pinned down by the Soviet Union in Libya.
This time, the news of the launch of the Mir space station from the Soviet Union made Reagan temporarily get out of the quagmire. It also temporarily diverted the attention of the American media, and a series of public relations began immediately. Compared with his previous remarks about the Soviet Union, Reagan has restrained a lot. However, it is still emphasized that the United States must seek peace with its strength in order to keep the world in a state of peace.
Strength seeks peace, and it has played a role since Reagan's reforms. After the second term began, it has rarely been said from Reagan's mouth. With the Libyan hostage crisis still in progress, the U.S. president, who has always been anti-Soviet, also restrained a lot.
But when it comes to spending, Reagan has never restrained himself. With a single stroke of a pen, a research fund of US$3.5 billion was approved. As the cost of space exploration, the momentum created is very big. Of course, the US NASA welcomes this. In fact, these research institutions are eager for the Soviet Union to do more.
NASA is an administrative scientific research institution of the US federal government, responsible for formulating and implementing the US civil space program and conducting research in aviation science and space science. The most authoritative aerospace department in the world in future generations, why do you say future generations? Because the Soviet Union is still around, most of the world's records have nothing to do with the United States.
It can be said that in addition to the moon landing, the Soviet Union is basically ahead of the Americans in any project, including the space station project.
President Reagan's response immediately caused a lot of discussion. Since the United States promulgated the Star Wars plan, other countries in the world believed that the second round of the space race had begun. After the quiet period of the 1970s, the two countries that had been dormant for ten years If China uses this period of time for technical reserves, this time the space race will inevitably become more intense.
The first completion of the Soviet Mir space station, at least the Soviet Union said so, other countries do not know that the second phase of the Mir space station will begin to be militarized.
As at the beginning of the space race in the 1950s, it was still the Soviet Union who made the first move. The completion of the Mir space station was not as shocking as Gagarin’s liftoff to the world, but the practical significance was not small at all. What Americans are very concerned about is how the United States will accept the recruits.
Even the comics industry in the United States joined in and began to draw comics about the Soviet author's space battleship attacking the United States.
This is a very interesting thing for you. Shelov has also seen a few pictures, and it is indeed very insightful. I also have to sigh in my heart that there are really many fields in the United States that are number one in the world. The field of comics and animation is just one of them. Yes, the United States is also the world's hegemony in these two fields. The export of the cultural industry in the United States is not as intense as that of the Soviet Union.
The animation production in the United States has always been the first in the world, and it has been maintained until the future that Sheloff knows. Japan is only created under the standards specified by the United States. Animation originated in the United States and was first shown in movie theaters. The movie is 24 frames per second, so the animation is also based on this format, 24 frames per second. This requires the producer to draw twenty-four pictures per second of animation according to the duration. This standard is basically the same to this day. That is, there is still a gap in animation technology between Japan and the United States in later generations, not to mention now.
The number of manga practitioners and the chance of a big production are also far more than Japan. Many comics turn into Hollywood movies.
"The Challenger just exploded in the air at the beginning of the year, and now they are starting to catch up? Sooner or later they will be killed!" Serov couldn't feel the shock of the Mir's launch to the Americans on the other side of the ocean. At this time, he was completely in the position of the winner. Cynical.
If someone in later generations mocks the US space power, it is absolutely arrogant. The US is undoubtedly the strongest space country, but now Serov is mocking the US, because the Soviet Union is still the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union did not disintegrate into the Russian Federation. The vast majority of the world's space records are from the Soviet Union.
The space race has always been the Soviet Union's move, and the United States has taken the move, at least so far. The biggest enemy of the Soviet space sector is not the US NASA, but the Soviet Union itself is somewhat weaker than the US. The sluggish Soviet Union made it impossible for the Soviet aerospace scientists to complete all their plans.
In the space race in the 1950s and 1960s, when the gap between the Soviet Union's national strength and the United States was still very obvious, except for the moon landing, the Soviet scientists lost to the United States in all fields. Now, when receiving almost support, there is no reason to lose.
"Reagan was really able to spend money, and so much was allocated for research." Kunayev, the first secretary of the Kazakh Party Committee, couldn't help but be stunned. The Soviet Union's annual welfare expenditure was only 90 billion. To deal with the population of 280 million in the Soviet Union. Kazakhs don't look at the size of the place, but the population is not large, and 3.5 billion is enough for Kazakh's national welfare expenditure.
"American characteristics, no need to make a fuss." Serov tilted his head and looked very happy. He was very happy to see the US increasing spending. The United States before Reagan came to power was actually no different from any other country. The generation of people during the Great Depression who are now in their 50s and 60s is definitely not the 21st century American moonlight.
Americans are no different from people in other countries, and the savings rate is definitely not low. Of course, it's not that high either. Since 1980, the savings rate in the United States has been below 20 percent, and by the 21st century it is already a single-digit percentage. This is also an important reason why Reagan dared to launch Reagan Economics, which stimulates American consumption. Why did the Americans become like that in later generations? Serov does not know this question. He has not been investigated, and he has not put the blame on Reagan for the time being, but it is estimated that it is similar.
It is by no means accidental that the wealth of the Reagan tycoons began to explode, the savings rate fell, and the world began to **** blood. Of course, the result was also very happy. This desperate gamble eventually took the Soviet Union away in waves.
After chatting with Kunayev for a while, little Valya came in and took out a telegram, Serov was silent for a moment after reading it, "We will go see him when we go back, after so many years, if it is not because of his contribution to the country. , he thought he could live for so long, we KGB want a person to die naturally, it's really not too simple."
The well-known spiritual leader of the Soviet Union, the father of Soviet thermonuclear weapons, Andrei Dmitrievich Sakharov. It is the source of the problem that Serov said that he has done good to the country and is now constantly causing trouble for the government. He co-founded the Moscow Human Rights Commission with Valery Chariz and Andrei Tverdochlebov and faced increased pressure from the authorities as a result.
In the 1970s, Sakharov married Yelena Bonner, a fellow human rights activist. Sakharov was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize; the following year he won the Chino del Duca World Prize, and then he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, but he was banned from leaving the Soviet Union to receive the prize, and his wife Yelena was there. The speech was read out on his behalf at the award ceremony.
The Soviet government put the Sakharovs under house arrest in Gorky City, and this time Serov came here before returning to Moscow.
"I don't understand, what's wrong with the country? If it wasn't for your contribution to the country, if it were someone else, would you still stay here and continue to write letters to protest? You also sent people abroad to smear the country?" The leader of the human rights movement has endured to the limit, and the two have known each other for a long time. Sakharov was here with the approval of Serov himself.
"Obviously there are many things, the Americans are right, why can't we compromise? Chairman Serov, oh, it should be Comrade General Secretary, my motherland has unfortunately fallen under your leadership." Sakharov was in front of him. There is no fear when it comes to Shelov, and the two have met several times.
Indeed, Serov and Sakharov have met quite a lot. From the early warning, to the later persuasion, and finally to house arrest, if Brezhnev was a gentleman, he refused Serov's opinion to kill this person, the human rights The leader is long dead.
Even now, Sakharov’s words that the motherland is very unfortunate to be said by Shelov’s leadership still make Shelov’s face change, and this time, no second Brezhnev can stop him.
"I tell you, I understand the meaning of human rights very well. And you are just a scientist. You have been valued by the country and respected by the people since you were young. So you have always raised the **** logic of those socialist parties with a high-level gaze. Do you think Do you know why the Soviet Union can't agree with many of the U.S. claims? Because the U.S. didn't back down, because it was proposed by the Americans." Serov took a few deep breaths before speaking in a steady voice.
"That's the reason, so what if we make some concessions? It's not very good to live in peace." Sakharov still insisted on his own opinion, in that he thought that as long as the Soviet Union made concessions, the matter would be resolved.
Then why didn't the US make concessions? Besides, even if the Soviet Union made concessions, wouldn't the United States propose more? Fortunately, Sakharov didn't see the disintegration of the Soviet Union with his own eyes. He couldn't even cry on that day.
Shelov doesn't know why a respected scientist becomes like this. What's the difference between eating with a bowl and putting it down to curse mother? After a moment of silence, he said with an expressionless face, "Reagan and I are going to talk in a third country about the abolition of intermediate-range missiles. Your house arrest will be lifted from today, but you can't go abroad yet, that's all."
"General Secretary, we let him go?" Little Valiya, who was waiting outside, was puzzled. In his opinion, this person was a trouble for the government.
"The positions are different. The more knowledge you have, the more reactionary you will be. Kill him within a month of his release." Shelov replied simply.
