MTL - Big Time 1958-Chapter 934 Crowd tactics

"Are you trying to get the Portuguese's attention with countless messages, distract the protesters, and then find a way to quell the protests? You always have a lot of options for this kind of problem." Sherbitsky's expression remained unchanged. He picked up the wine glass and put it to his mouth, then leaned his neck to drink it, the taste was not bad.

   "It's my job after all!" Shelov chuckled, the country cannot step back unprincipled. Retreat to the enemy country is a map, and retreat to the people is the disintegration of the Soviet Union. In a better situation, there will be heavy obstacles on the back. If a powerful institution can't deal with the people, then what is a powerful institution, and it should be changed to a charitable institution.

   There were 200,000 people participating in the protest, which seemed like a lot. However, in the face of the socialist camp, don't mention the word overpopulation. The Soviet Union is the third most populous country in the world. After the integration of India and Pakistan, India is the most populous country in the world. Even China is now a member of the nominally socialist camp.

   In Eurasia, the Soviet camp has an absolute manpower advantage, and this manpower advantage is overwhelming. With this support, the Soviet Union's various industrial indicators are still growing at a high speed, and the longer it takes, the more obvious its advantage over the United States will be.

The problem with   Portugal is that it cannot enjoy this manpower advantage. Geographically, the Portuguese mainland and the Soviet Union are separated. This does not give full play to the collective advantages, and it is still under military pressure, which is not optimistic.

"Compared to the population of the whole country, although the number is large, it is not impossible to solve the problem. The party and trade union organizations are still in operation. As long as the Portuguese Communist Party can persist, it is not impossible to calm down." Sherbitsky thought for a while and asked, "I have to look at the industrial structure of Portugal, and then there is a way."

"Very good, but the first step is to seize power, and let the union leaders restrain the protesters' actions and exclude the unhealthy forces. This is necessary!" Shelov looked up at the church not far away and said, "This is the most important thing. Yes, and there is to immediately sign a treaty with Portugal, absorbing Portugal to formally join the Warsaw Pact."

  Scherbitsky nodded in approval, once Portugal officially joined the Warsaw Pact, the stick of limited sovereignty theory could be lifted. Being a part of the Warsaw Pact must serve the interests of the entire socialist camp.

   Let the forces under his control enter the ranks of the protesters and seize the leadership, which is not incomprehensible to General Secretary Cunyar. It may seem difficult, but in fact, as long as the Portuguese Communist Party specifically selects these forces that it can control when talking with the protesters, it will naturally help these lurkers to establish their prestige.

   Those who are the real instigators, General Secretary Cunyaar will not pay attention at all, and only talk to leaders who are soft-spoken. After a few times, the instigator's influence becomes less and less. This is a left-to-right fight. General Secretary Cunard pretended to be in dialogue, while the lurkers who seized the leadership pretended to be protesting.

   After General Secretary Cunyar made the first step, Serov generated electricity to urge Angola and Mozambique, as ties between the Soviet Union and Portugal, both of which were already the spokespersons of the Soviet Union in southern Africa. The pro-Soviet parties in the two countries are more likely to have influence, and the official language of the two countries is Portuguese, which makes it easier to communicate with the Portuguese.

   Even if these two countries have no commendable development, over the years, there have always been some propaganda cadres who can do it well, and they can always be found if they choose more. Two days later, the delegations of the two parties arrived in Lisbon on a Soviet Airlines flight. In the past few days, the people of Lisbon have welcomed delegations from all over the world. Many of these delegations have hundreds of people, and there are also dozens of people.

   Advance News also followed up on interviews at all times to spread the significance of the Comintern Conference. At the same time, General Secretary Cunyar is also calling for dialogue, and the lurkers who have established a firm foothold in the protest crowd responded positively, and the action of this internal and external attack is beginning.

"Keep an eye on the U.S. embassy and U.S. companies. History has proved that there is no wrongdoing for these ambassadors to be shot." Serov suggested to General Secretary Cunyar, inciting the people to create pressure, so as to draw chestnuts from the fire, and it is not only the American Congress, The Soviet Union is also very skilled at this trick, and the general secretary is an expert. His judgment is more accurate than that of the working group here in the United States.

  During this process, the Soviet airline worked hard and took the tasks given by the general secretary as orders. Collect pro-Soviet parties from all over the world and ship to Lisbon. When you can play the advantage of numbers, you don't need to be a fool. At least half of the Soviet Union's misgivings about China were in the Chinese population. When India destroyed Pakistan, why didn't China start a war from the east to stop it? Haven't you been stunned by Bangladesh's 200 million people?

  More is beauty, big is good, caliber is justice, turret is truth! If you can crush it, you can crush it, and when you can't crush it, let's talk about the issue of not being crushed. At least now, even if three members of the Icelandic Communist Party came, in the parliament building where the conference was held, the original Portuguese parliament building, Portugal raised the flag of Iceland and the flag of the Communist Party of Iceland.

  The arrival of more and more party representatives in Portugal has caused some changes in the hearts of Portuguese. The protest wave is still going on, but it is more like a walk than a protest, and the intensity is not as strong as it used to be.

  The subsequent news made the protesters even more excited. This Comintern meeting will formally discuss some of the problems currently encountered in Portugal, and the whole meeting will be broadcast live to ensure that it will be open to the Portuguese people. Under the premise of democracy, solve some of the problems that Portugal urgently needs to solve.

The live broadcast will be seen by all the people in front of the TV. Now the crowd of protesters has two choices. One is to continue protesting here, and the other is to go home and watch TV. After learning the latest news, they are considering whether to Take to the streets.

"Let most of the followers go home first, and the rest will not be able to make a big storm. Fighting with our KGB, isn't that courting death? What am I doing? Dare to use such a pediatric thing in front of me?" Serov praised himself unceremoniously at all, even if he was not very skilled at the beginning, after so many years of KGB career, he would become an expert.

   Sherbitsky watched the itinerary seriously, turning a deaf ear to the boast of the second generation of the Soviet Union. With a slight movement of his body, he moved the swivel chair under his butt, and turned his back to the general secretary. Um! It's so much better...

  I may be a fake general secretary, Serov narrowed his eyes and felt that he had nothing to say to this ruthless, unscrupulous, but highly capable person, wait! These comments also seem to be suitable for his general secretary. Is the discord between two people the reason for same-sex exclusion?

"Why are you speechless? Caspian Tiger?" Sherbitsky turned around again and said calmly, "Exactly, should we learn from Reagan and experiment with tax cuts in Portugal? Cut off welfare spending. "

   "Thank you for thinking about it. Portugal is the terminal of the European Internet and the restraining force behind NATO. I would rather bled this country than adopt reforms that may fail." Serov shook his head vigorously, joking. There is a lot of bad water in Sierbitsky's move, which is to sacrifice an ally to see the effect of his own ideas. However, we can't sacrifice Portugal, or sacrifice anything in Poland. The general secretary has no opinion at that time.

"Actually, it will be delayed by ten or eight years. It's not difficult." Shelov said to himself, "When will the Chinese delegation arrive?" Can we solve the Portuguese problem? Simple and simple. Reagan can use this trick, and Serov can also use this trick, isn't it just to take advantage of China's labor cost advantage, reduce costs, and create an illusion of easy life? Portugal itself wants to maintain its current state, either with a blood transfusion from the Soviet Union, or industrial transfer. Serov does not want a blood transfusion from the Soviet Union, so he can only choose the latter.

In mid-September, the Comintern Congress opened in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal. On the opening day, there were very few protesters in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal. Leaders of the Soviet Union and other Eastern European countries were all present. Behind the rostrum, various national flags were densely arranged side by side. It perfectly embodies the losing team.

   Shelov and Sherbitsky looked at each other. Shelov himself was mainly responsible for flicking, while Sherbitsky was supported by theory and experience in managing the Ukrainian economy to solve practical problems. Cunhaar, General Secretary of the Portuguese Communist Party, announced the opening of the conference, and Serov first made a report on the international communist movement.

Having said some conventional nonsense that the situation is not good but good, Serov began to talk about the ruling experience of the Communist parties in various countries, and introduced the new development and difficulties of the Soviet planned economy, "We must admit that, for now, the primary stage of socialism is In the process of exploration, socialism is far from exerting its crushing advantages over capitalism. Previous assessments were too optimistic, and there was no overwhelming advantage over capitalist countries, which is the root of many problems.”

   In terms of speech, Khrushchev is his best teacher, and the eloquent Serov is much higher than Brezhnev. When the general secretary finished his speech, the audience stood up and applauded, and then Shcherbitsky used a big data report to maintain the authenticity of the general secretary's speech. After that, representatives from various countries came to power one after another. In addition to Eastern European countries, Latin American countries and Southeast Asian countries, even Angola, Mozambique, and Benin introduced their experiences.

   "We have not concealed some of the current structural problems in Portugal. Some industries have reached a bottleneck. Portugal also hopes to gain a favorable experience at this conference." Cunhaar, general secretary of the Portuguese Communist Party, looked honest. Many Portuguese sitting in front of the TV listen carefully, they are waiting for this time.
