Description:
Bilyk B.I., Budyakov A.V. Butterfly King. Boychenko Semyon Petrovich 1912-1987. Mykolaiv. Publisher: Lev Trustov. 2012. 220 p. Lots of photos. Hardcover, Enlarged format. Print run: 400. A village boy who achieved world recognition, Semyon Boychenko became the idol of the pre-war generation of the USSR. In the West, he was expected to be known as the famous Tarzan, played by the great American swimmer Johnny Weissmuller. But Boychenko was a Soviet man, and a different fate awaited him... The sensation of the Antwerp Olympics, Semyon Boychenko, broke records and won the hearts of the public. His charming smile did not leave the pages of newspapers all over the world. Immediately after the competition in Belgium, the French Workers' Sports Federation invited him and the entire Soviet delegation to take part in a sports festival dedicated to the World's Fair in Paris. A Soviet athlete is inundated with invitations to dinner parties, Russian emigrants of the first wave, who settled in France, are tempted to stay in the West, he is offered to act in films. During the day, three film crews with ready-made scripts broke into a Paris hotel, into the room of the "King of the Butterfly" or "Red Whale," as Boychenko was called in the French press. But each time, he rejects any tempting contracts: "I'm sorry, but it's time for me to go home! In Moscow, Boychenko was greeted as a hero. He became incredibly popular, all the famous people in the country wanted to get acquainted with him, Stalin himself from the rostrum of the Mausoleum on Red Square set him as an example of Soviet youth: "A former sailor of the Black Sea Fleet, Comrade Boychenko has become an unsurpassed world-class swimmer. Look up to Boychenko! Break records, like Boychenko on the water and Chkalov in the sky!" He was eager to go to the front, but by order of Stalin he was exempted from mobilization and sent to the troops to train Red Army soldiers and soldiers of special forces. Around the clock, Boychenko remained in the service and during the war managed to train thousands of combat swimmers. In 1948, undefeated, he made plans for a new post-war life, was going to get back in shape, but fate was preparing other difficult trials for him. On the basis of a false denunciation by one of the provocateurs, Boychenko was accused of allegedly making unflattering remarks about the leader's son Vasily, and a criminal connection with the White émigrés and the bourgeois press was "soldered". Great. Author's deed of gift.
Билык Б.И. Будяков А.В. Король баттерфляя. Бойченко Семен Петрович 1912—1987. Николаев. Издатель: Лев Трастов. 2012 г. 220 с. Много фото. Твердый переплет, Увеличенный формат. Тираж: 400. На лощенной бумаге.Деревенский парень, добившийся мирового признания, Семён Бойченко стал кумиром предвоенного поколения СССР. На Западе ему прочили славу знаменитого Тарзана, которого сыграл великий американский пловец Джонни Вайсмюллер. Но Бойченко был советским человеком, и его ждала другая судьба… Сенсация антверпенской Олимпиады – Семён Бойченко, бил рекорды и покорял сердца публики. Его обаятельная улыбка не сходила с газетных полос всего мира. Сразу после соревнований в Бельгии Французская рабочая спортивная федерация приглашает его и всю советскую делегацию принять участие в спортивном празднике, посвященном Всемирной выставке в Париже. Советского атлета заваливают приглашениями на званые обеды, русские эмигранты первой волны, осевшие во Франции, соблазняют остаться на Западе, ему предлагают сниматься в кино. В течение дня три съемочные группы с готовыми сценариями прорывались в парижскую гостиницу, в номер «Короля баттерфляя» или «Красного кита», так называли Бойченко во французской прессе. Но всякий раз он отклоняет любые заманчивые контракты: «Простите, но мне пора домой! До свиданья!» В Москве же Бойченко встречали как героя. Он стал неимоверно популярен, с ним хотели познакомиться все известные люди в стране, сам Сталин с трибуны Мавзолея на Красной площади ставил его в пример советской молодежи: «Бывший моряк Черноморского флота товарищ Бойченко стал непревзойденным пловцом мирового класса. Равняйтесь на Бойченко! Бейте рекорды, как Бойченко на воде и Чкалов в небе!» Война… Он рвался на фронт, но приказом Сталина был освобожден от мобилизации и направлен в войска для подготовки красноармейцев и бойцов сил специального назначения. Круглыми сутками Бойченко оставался на службе и за период войны сумел обучить тысячи боевых пловцов. В 48-м году, непобеждённый, он строил планы на новую послевоенную жизнь, собирался снова набрать спортивную форму, но судьба готовила ему иные тяжкие испытания. По ложному доносу одного из провокаторов Бойченко обвинили в, якобы, нелицеприятных отзывах в адрес сына вождя Василия, а «припаяли» преступную связь с белоэмигрантами и буржуазной прессой. Отличное. Дарственная автора.

How does AUTO BIDDING work
This is a function that helps you place bids automatically in case your bet is interrupted.
For example, current lot price is UAH 120. You are ready to bargain up to UAH 5 000. Enter 5 000 in the field "Automatic bargaining" and click "Place Bet". As a result, your new rate will appear, but not in the amount of UAH 5 000, but only UAH 121. In this case, the system will remember that you are ready to bargain up to UAH 5 000, and will make the necessary bids for you if the price continues to rise.
Let's say another participant places a bet of UAH 2 000. Then the system will automatically place your bet of 2 001 UAH. And only if someone places a bet more than UAH 5 000, you will receive a notification that your auto rate has been interrupted.
