offwithout him.
- The mast won't hold.
- Hold it!
Hurry!
Move it!
To the cabin.
Do we take off' Arthur Arthurovich?
Start'er up' guys!
We're flying!
Hold it! The boy!
My formulas!
My papers!
Wait!
Wait! Wait!
Garin has seized an island
in the Pacific
and declared himself its owner.
He built a gold mine on it.
Here're Mantsev's diaries.
I ask you to rise
in memory of him.
Now we've got a lot cleared up.
The olivine belt has three layers.
The middle belt is iron and nickel.
The upper one is slags.
And' finally' the lower' third' layer
is gold' platinum and mercury.
Day and night'
we're getting deeper and deeper'
to the inexhaustible reserves of gold.
The Siberian placers'
the goldfields of California'
it's just peanuts'
a cottage industry.
We've got gold under our feet!
We just have to break
through the boiling olivine.
This morning we got down
lower than the magnetic belt.
All the instruments are
pointing to zero.
Gold must be above.
Bullshit!
We shall find gold!
This morning we're taking mercury.
We must continue!
Mantsev couldn't be mistaken.
Gold is above!
We go up!
Listen.
We're just plain stupid!
Mercury and gold are boiling
side by side.
So what do we get?
It's mercuric gold!
Mercuric gold.
Mercury has a golden tint!
It's 90 percent
pure gold!
Engineer Garin
is the greatest adventurer!
The Golden island mine should
be filled up as soon as possible!
Well?
What' my dear gentlemen?
The fleet has been
ordered to bombard.
To level the island with the ocean.
What's the matter?
Are you so worried about
the fleet approaching?
Eight battleships.
Their salvo amounts
to a billion kilograms.
We'll manage the squadron'
I've got two hyperboloids.
The squadron's approaching.
I'm taking a decision.
I'll trust Shelga with
the secret ofthe big hyperboloid.
Shelga' the hour has come.
I have foreseen this.
You'll help destroy the fleet.
- A nice job.
- Bullshit!
Your task is to sink the battleships.
Don't even dare to refuse.
lfyou do' I'll shoot you.
Yes or no?
No.
Provocateur! Bastard!
Drop this thing!
I don't believe you.
You've already lied to me three times!
Into the shaft!
Breathe mercury!
And the boy goes down there too!
Let's go and have breakfast.
And crack a bottle of champagne.
Well' your dream has come true.
You can institute
the Order of Divine Zoya now.
Now you're the queen
ofthe Golden island.
You're a fop' Garin.
You're a terrible man'
you love nobody.
Except you.
When I'm in power' I'll have you
hanged from the hyperboloid's tower.
Hello! Hello!
The time has come to talk
seriously. How about it?
All right.
Speak on.
I'm listening.
Please.
I suggest again
that we cooperate.
Are you surprised?
I'll explain.
I'm an organizer'
I want to restructure
your whole cumbersome
capitalistic system.
If I don't do it'
the communists will gobble you up.
You might ask...
why I need you' Rolling'
when I have inexhaustible
reserves of gold under my feet?
Yes' I would like to ask that.
- Have gin with pepper.
- Cayenne pepper?
Yes' it will stir up your imagination.
We're going to arrange a few
hot days for the mankind.
We'll bring people to the very
edge of a horrible abyss.
Listen' Garin.
I'm a practical man.
Here's my plan.
In those days of tremendous panic, I...
I mean' we shall buy everything -
all plants and factories'
the entire air force' the marine.
In a word' the whole world...
...we'll grab it by the throat.
It's a bold idea' I agree.
We must prepare the opinion ofyour
colleagues there' on the continent.
Meanwhile we shall
shower the world with gold.
Citizens ofthe world!
Garin is speaking to you.
I got to the bowels ofthe earth.
At the depth of 12 kilometers
the shaft penetrated a massive
layer of boiling gold.
I'm offering you
my commodity - gold!
The price is 2.5 dollars a kilo.
What is engineer Garin aiming at?
What will happen to the ratio
between the labor and the living
if
