Chapter 998 Are You Interested in the Prototype Car?
Malachenko couldn't help but shout out the complaints that were on his lips and in his heart, but he didn't consider the impact and influence that his words would have on the Red Army tank masters around him.
Dr. August, who was in a daze and thinking about his brain circuit, couldn't answer. He still needed a long time to slowly digest the machine gun-like words that Malachenko had just uttered.
To this day, Dr. August's Russian level is still not very good, but fortunately his high IQ helps him learn the language quickly. Even if he stutters a little, he can still understand what Malachenko means.
On the other hand, the expressions on Kotin and Shashmurin's faces are much more interesting than Dr. August's.
The expressions of Kotin and Shashmurin looking at Malachenko can almost be described as "stunned".
The two Red Army tank masters didn't understand why Comrade Malachenko seemed to know the new tricks that this German had come up with very well.
Kotin, who was savoring what Malashenko had just said, was the first to come back to his senses.
He first glanced at the handmade object in front of him and stared at it for about ten seconds.
Then he turned his head and moved closer to Malashenko and asked in a low voice.
"We can talk about the details later, Comrade Malashenko. But I want to know right now, are all the things you just said true?"
Kotin's question sounded simple, but there was obviously something behind it. The so-called "true" does not only refer to the handmade product, but also concerns the character of Dr. August.
If you are still willing to think about the fourth level, this can even be understood as a questioning of Malashenko. The key is to see what kind of mood changes the person who heard this has, so as to finally make a final conclusion.
Fortunately, Malashenko can understand Kotin's surprise and inner emotions at this moment. If you think about it from another perspective, if you are Kotin, you will be in a similar situation at this moment.
Knowing that all this would happen sooner or later, Malashenko did not hesitate too much and whispered to Kotin without much thought.
"Of course what I said is true, but what August did and said is also correct, at least in essence."
What? You are not wrong and he is not wrong? Then did I misunderstand it?
Kotin, who was confused by Malashenko, did not even know what to say next. Fortunately, Malashenko, as a breaker, did not let this embarrassment last too long.
"If you are willing to believe me, Comrade Kotin, just do as I say for the time being."
"Let this German put down everything he is doing and announce the suspension of the plan. There is no need to proceed."
"Also, we can go to a place with fewer people to talk, and I will personally explain to you what I just said.
Looking at Malashenko's expression that didn't seem to be joking at all, Kotin, who was a little confused, finally nodded and did as he was told, and then followed Malashenko's promise to get the answer he wanted.
Malashenko is not a top student in the field of machinery and electricity. He studied civil engineering in a domestic university, and studied a programming major that was not related to Moscow. He was angry. Dad once cursed this bastard for squandering the money of the Lin family and leaving him to study for nothing.
So according to Malashenko's professional level, he could only repeat the faults and defects of the Porsche electric wire system that he brought from the future according to his memory.
The core is a sentence, the cooling system of this thing is ridiculously bad! If you don't want to catch fire and explode, say goodbye to this junk quickly. Mechanical transmission plus diesel engine is the ultimate king of our Soviet Red Army.
And when Kotin asked Malashenko why he knew all this, Malashenko's impromptu answer was even more outrageous.
"There is a guy named Karamov in our brigade. He is a genius in tank maintenance and proficiency in mechanics."
"When I was chatting with him before, I accidentally talked about the application of this system. We have thought of many possibilities, but none of them is more reliable than mechanical transmission. What we need in wartime is to ensure quality and reliability. This is not a peacetime period to concentrate on research and experimental work, and there is plenty of time to use. What do you think? Comrade Kotin. "
Malachenko, who tried to change the subject, succeeded. Kotin, who was unable to react for a while, was really fooled by Malachenko.
After carefully tasting the second half of Malachenko's words, Kotin, who was familiar with the war on the front line, thought that the initiative of the war was still on the German side, and that a large area of his motherland was still occupied and was on the overwhelmed side, it was not difficult to understand the final conclusion that "there is really no time, energy and resources to continue to waste on this unreliable project".
Besides, what Comrade Malachenko said was indeed very logical and almost completely overturned the superiority of the electric transmission system that attracted him. This must be acknowledged.
Of course, compared to a German prisoner who might not be so reliable, Kotin was more willing to believe in his comrade, friend, and a Soviet hero, which was also a very important reason that played a guiding role.
"Did this German really do this on purpose? He knew that this system was unreliable, but he still wanted to copy one here to deliberately deceive us and sabotage us?"
When Kotin said this, Malashenko suddenly felt that the words had changed a bit.
Malashenko knew that Kotin was good at political struggle and class struggle.
It was certain that he had been listed as a trustworthy person by Kotin and didn't have to worry.
But if August, the low EQ and high IQ idiot, was remembered by Kotin, Malashenko estimated that he might only be able to see him in Siberia in the future, provided that this weak and frail scholar really didn't become potato fertilizer.
Malashenko, who had pulled Kotin to a deserted place at the factory gate and squatted to smoke, took a deep breath of smoke, turned to Kotin with a serious face and blurted out again.
"I knew how low his EQ was the first time I captured him alive, and I believe you know it as well."
"I think he just put his focus and energy in the wrong place. Maybe he hadn't completed the system when he was in Germany, and now he just wants to pick up his old job and continue to complete it? Carpenters who haven't finished carving wood usually don't give up, always wanting to take some time to complete it to satisfy themselves. Karamov from our brigade is the same."
"Correct his mistakes and give him some guidance. Maybe he can play a role in other places. Anyway, there is no loss in trying. Besides, this is also a full utilization of the enemy's surplus value. Isn't it good to do so? Comrade Kotin."
Make full use of the enemy's surplus value?
This is the first time Kotin has heard this fresh statement. Although it sounds a bit familiar, it does make more and more sense, as if not doing so would be a loss.
Nodding, Kotin temporarily dispelled his concerns and decided to join the side of the spectators and observe for the time being.
Every time he talked with Malashenko, he could find something new and fresh, which was why Kotin was always looking forward to meeting Malashenko again.
But now that he had said this, Kotin suddenly remembered that he had not yet explained something to Malashenko, and it might be the right time to talk about the two things together.
"Comrade Malashenko, are you interested in the new prototype?"
