Chapter 1582 Kings’ Cooperation

After thinking for a long time, Malashenko finally spoke after lighting a cigarette.

"Although you are not entirely right, I am really glad that you think so."

"After all, if you and Morozov can cooperate more than compete, it will be better than the current situation anyway."

After hearing this, Kotin smiled slightly.

"So what? What is your answer?"

Malashenko took a breath.

"You and Morozov should cooperate. Even limited cooperation is better than pure competition."

"The war has reached the stage of strategic counterattack. Our front line will be extended, and the enemy's armored forces are getting stronger. The demand for the quality and quantity of new tanks on the front line will become greater and greater."

"As a leader, it's no big deal to help the weaker and pull him up. It won't have much impact. It is our priority to defeat the Nazi fascists as soon as possible. Ending this war one day earlier can save countless soldiers' lives and countless families that will be broken apart because of the loss of their loved ones.

"On the front line, I try my best to increase the chance of survival for every soldier. I want all the heroic families to wait for the day when their heroes return home with victory."

"I hope you can do the same as me, brother. Let's join forces, count Morozov, kick these fascist bastards into the graves they should go to as soon as possible, and nail the coffin lid, so that these bastards will never be able to turn over! Let more soldiers live to see the day of the motherland's victory, which is more meaningful than anything else. I always believe in this! I hope you can believe it too! "

Malachenko thought that his words were bold enough and there was absolutely no problem in impressing ordinary people. These were all his sincere words from the heart.

But Kotin is not an ordinary person as usually understood. He has high IQ and EQ. This is the case of Kotin.

Malachenko didn't know what Kotin, who was extremely smart, was thinking about now. He just saw Kotin slowly get up from his chair, leave his desk, walk alone to the window sill of the office, and look at the street view downstairs along the wooden window frame inlaid with shiny glass, and remain silent.

The back bathed in the sun near noon did look a bit full of glory.

"Maybe I set too high a requirement for myself. I always want to run to a higher place to see what kind of things are waiting for me there. For this reason, I will do everything in my career and do my best to do all the things within my duties. "But sometimes, the best definition cannot be measured only by career achievements. This is what I suddenly realized after you said those words to me just now. I have been immersed in my own world and my own career for too long. " "Compared to the career that can keep moving forward until it is forced to stop when it is old and dying, some things are more worthy of our struggle now. I finally understand this point." Kotin, who was facing the window and talking to himself, finally turned around at this time. The smiling and relaxed expression on his face was still the Kotin that Malashenko was familiar with. "Go, my brother, do what you should do, and help Morozov to solve those backward designs that he has not been able to catch up with me until now. " "In addition, after I finish these important things at hand and have a preliminary result. I will take time to go to Morozov in person. I have a lot to talk to him face to face. This guy who is not as good as me in career and interpersonal relationships is stubborn and stupid. Ha, forgive me for evaluating him like this. But he never took the initiative to find me, so I'll take the initiative to talk to him. "

It can be seen that Kotin is in a good mood, chatting and laughing, and even Morozov, who has always refused to admit defeat to him, is not so worried. Some things have indeed been put aside by Kotin at that moment, and a truly decisive man should be like this.

"Morozov is Koshkin's direct disciple. This guy may have a bad temper, is not good at communication, and is stubborn and a bit rigid. "

"But this person is really capable and is a truly talented tank designer. After Koshkin's death, he was able to take charge of the overall situation of medium tanks, which is enough to prove this. "

"If you can give him some guidance and help with design ideas, I believe he can come up with some eye-catching designs. Koshkin was able to focus on training him at the beginning, and I think he should not have made a mistake. Sometimes some of his design ideas will even make me shine and bring some inspiration. "

"It's just, well, you know. Morozov has been under great pressure since the Battle of Kursk. The design of medium tanks has seriously lagged behind the actual needs of the battlefield. This is an indisputable fact. Comrade Stalin asked Morozov about the progress of the project many times at meetings and urged him several times, but the actual results were always lacking in novelty, or they could not match the latest German main tanks and were far behind. "

"I can see that he is under great psychological pressure and has a heavy burden on his shoulders. Sometimes when I see him at a meeting in Moscow, I feel like he has just been released from a prison cell. He is a little depressed due to overwork. If he continues like this, his health will be in big trouble. He might die young like Koshkin."

"Go and help him. Don't let him break down before he finishes what he should do. If that happens, I will have no competitors even after the war. None of his young apprentices can compete with me. It would be too boring and would make me lose the motivation to innovate and move forward."

To be honest, Kotin is also a person who refuses to admit defeat.

Even if he had agreed to let Malashenko help Morozov, he still set up a so-called competitor for himself without mercy. Malashenko could only shake his head helplessly and smile instead of laughing.

"This is probably the best news I have heard recently. I am serious.

"The two outstanding tank design masters of our motherland are finally planning to cooperate. Oh, my God, I promise Comrade Stalin! If the Germans knew this news, they would be scared to death! Because it won't be long before they will face the full strength of the real Red Army's iron torrent, and even their dreams at night will be shrouded in terror. "
