I'm leaving. - Bye. - Write me. Ican't write. I'm illiterate. Hello, Gypsies, so early in the morning Forgive me for what I'm singing Don't think that it's about you personally I'm talking about all the Gypsies Iwish you happiness To live happily Happily with your family With good people close by You are a Siberian Gypsy A Russian Gypsy Hold yourself with dignity in society Iask nothing more of you Pour out, my dear song Use joy to charm hearts Go away, my trembling sorrow - Give the full road to happiness - This is my taiga. Open up your arms, my song Afanasy's road. Take me away to a starry place Tell us that we brothers Have only one mother The beautiful land Hello, Theodore Nikolaevich. Hello, Solomin. What to you think you're doing, Philip? What? Last Wednesday we tried to fnd out the reasons for the delays in the power plant construction in your region. And on that very same day... Have a seat. On that very same day, your regional paper featured an article against the construction and, naturally, against the decision that was made. So, you're sticking to your guns? Yes. - Philip. - Theodore Nikolaevich... Philip. We're old friends. We've always seen eye to eye. When you were a candidate, Iwas the frst to vote for you. But now Iknow it was a mistake. In wartime, I'd entrust a corps or an army to you. But Inow see that some people were right. You can't handle a region. You don't understand that it's also a matter of politics. You're right. It is politics. Iwas in Africa last summer. The conditions are different there. Poke your fnger in the sand, and oil gushes forth. What does Africa have to do with this? As Isee it, in this decade, oil will have a bearing on all international political issues. You're in charge of a region, not the foreign policy department. Today they're becoming inseparable. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to deal with national economic problems. I'm deeply convinced of this. Right after the revolution, Lenin spoke of the need to develop Siberia's rich natural resources. For 40 years, we've been interrupted by war, economic dislocation, rehabilitation efforts, another war. Now we can fnally develop our land. But easier said than done. We can't just poke our fnger in the sand like someplace in Arabia to get oil. You've worked on-site. You know we need machinery. Yes, okay. just think of it. Oil, gems, metals, gold, gas... all underwater. Why all? A total of 1 30 square kilometers. The northernmost man-made sea looks nice in reports. But why on our water-meadows, rich fioodplains, 400-year-old villages, large tracts of valuable lumber and our main wealth, oil. Thank God I've no grandchildren yet. What would Isay to them if they asked me? Stay there. Theodore Nikolaevich. I'll come later. Start without me. And what if there's no oil there? - There is. - But they haven't found any. They will. We just need to untie the hands of those who have dedicated their lives to studying Siberia. Without Moscow's blessing, they can't even put up a derrick. - Too many babysitters. - This can be resolved. As for the hydro plant... Ted, just think of the war, and our marines. We wouldn't have won if we hadn't taken chances. You're a real daredevil. Back me up. You must. That's the only way we'll win. And what if there's no oil after all? We can't be exiled any farther than Siberia. Alexei Nikolaevich, want to see the new core? - What? - They pulled out a new core. So what? - What if they found oil? - Sure, right. just look at all this oil. No oil around here. You think this is Saudi Arabia? Here it's just one word... Elan. You owe us a bottle, Alexei! It's our last day of slave labor, so don't forget. Can Icome in? Come on in. - The third shift is over. - And? - I've been doing grunt work a whole month. - And? - Am Iforgiven? - Well... Am Iforgiven by everyone? ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Ганг Хо на английском - текст Каратель на английском - текст Беги без оглядки на английском - текст Затерянные в космосе на английском - текст Агнец божий на английском |
