Chapter 968: Precursor to Disintegration

"Is there a list of those companies?"

Liu Lang spoke on the side.

"Yes, here's the list!"

Lu Chaoyang immediately took out a page from his leather bag and handed it to Liu Lang.

Liu Lang took it and glanced at it all in mind, there are no too famous companies, at least not those famous companies in Germany in his previous life, what Siemens, Krupp, Expo, etc., of course, Liu Lang did not have a deep understanding of machinery in his previous life, and many companies are not visible in the world, so these are not very clear.

However, there is one company in this list that has caught Liu Lang's attention.

"CNC tool manufacturing plant. ”

NORINCO Group's main product is now a tool, which is expected to manufacture the best machine tool tool in China this year, and this CNC company may be able to bring Liu Lang some new ideas.

Liu Lang thinks that his level should be world-class, and his mentor Professor Claire is about the same, of course, this refers to the theoretical level, if you talk about analytical ability, ten Claire can't compare to him, but no matter how strong the analytical ability is, it is impossible to solve all problems, continuous learning is the king.

He has been in Fucheng for the past year, but he has been paying attention to the development of the world's machinery, and has purchased many professional publications through the Yongli Group, and it is the "James" who is responsible for this, and he can even buy those prohibited items, and these professional publications are naturally not a problem.

In the past two years, the world's machinery industry has also developed very fast, especially CNC machine tools, from the beginning of the two-axis to three-axis, and now there is a four-axis linkage, which has higher and higher requirements for tools, Liu Lang also wants to see what the latest generation of tools looks like.

Liu Lang read the list first, Jiang Botao took it, took the glasses and looked at it carefully, he had never heard of most of the company names.

It's work time, although the road here is not crowded, but also dense traffic, the speed of the two cars is not very fast, suddenly passing by an intersection, a large number of pedestrians rushed in, these pedestrians are dressed in rags, pale, and others are completely different, like a group of beggars, the police on the side seem to have long been used to it, not only do not block, but also maintain order from time to time, let them hurry to the city center, the vehicles on the road are also consciously stopped at this moment.

"Chaoyang, who are they?"

Jiang Botao felt very curious, West Germany is a capitalist country, very rich, last year's per capita annual income exceeded 8,000 US dollars, not to say that everyone is rich, but there should be no such beggars, how can such a person come out all of a sudden? There are even many children and women among them, what is the situation?

"Minister Jiang, these people are not West Germans, but East Germans, now the East Germany is in chaos, many people secretly run here to take refuge, the West Germany side does not stop them, they should go to Frankfurt to find their relatives, if it is in Berlin, you can see East Germans everywhere on the street, many people are still injured. ”

Lu Chaoyang explained.

"That's .........!"

Jiang Botao understood that at the end of World War II, the Soviets and Americans divided a unified Germany, West Germany was controlled by the United States, a capitalist society, and East Germany was controlled by the Soviet Union, which was a socialist country.

However, the situation has changed dramatically in recent years, the Soviet Union, the big brother of socialism, has been in turmoil, especially after Gorchev came to power, the country was in a mess, all kinds of corruption incidents emerged one after another, internal chaos weakened the strength and prestige of the Soviet Union, and the attitudes of some vassal countries began to be ambiguous, East Germany and West Germany were originally one country, and after the end of World War II, the Soviet Union and the United States directly built a Berlin Wall in Berlin to divide a country into two.

Just like in China, after the defeat of the Nationalist Army, millions of troops withdrew to Wanwan and lost contact with their relatives, and a shallow strait separated millions of families, and one point is 40 years, and I don't know how many people miss each other in 40 years.

Chinese mainland and Wanwan are separated by a strait that ordinary people cannot cross, but the Berlin Wall is only three meters high, and standing on both sides can even talk directly, this artificial isolation relies on harsh repression, otherwise the wall would have been overthrown long ago.

Liu Lang looked out, of course he knew what was going to happen in Germany, this year is ninety, the Soviet Union is about to disintegrate, then the Berlin Wall will be torn down, the two Germany will be reunified, it is now January, the Soviet Union is on the verge of disintegration, this period of time they are already the last madness, prices are soaring, social turmoil, officials and tycoons have no scruples in order to make benefits, such an era is undoubtedly devastating for the common people, and the wealth they have accumulated for a lifetime is likely to be wiped out overnight.

Even if he is about to finish, those places that were not under his jurisdiction are of course even more powerless to take care of, not only in terms of economy, but also in terms of control, such as the East German region, Liu Lang watched some movies about this period in his previous life, and the surveillance of people by Soviet agents is really harsh to the extreme, you may find out if you say two bad words at home, and then you will be thrown into prison, and some serious ones will even lose their lives.

I'm afraid that the salaries of those Soviet spies are gone, and the so-called trees are falling apart, and this harsh rule has long made the East German people complain, and now they are taking advantage of their internal chaos to flee for their lives, and this has formed a large number of refugees, of course, this is not refugees, because philosophy is their homeland in the first place.

"Ambassador Lu, now the Soviet Union is in chaos!"

Liu Lang suddenly asked on the side.

"Well, almost, we usually collect some intelligence, and there are indeed big problems in the Soviet Union now, mainly the ten-year war in Afghanistan, which has caused them huge losses, and there are mistakes in economic policy, but our country still believes that they can recover, it will take time!"

After all, the Soviet Union is the big brother of socialism, and relations between the two countries were not good a few years ago, but after Gorchev came to power, relations between the two countries recovered a lot, and the other side visited China last year, and Deng Lao personally met with him.

Now the chaos in the Soviet Union has also attracted the attention of China's top leaders, but no one will believe that they will disintegrate, after all, this country is too powerful, and it has not fallen behind in confronting the United States for so many years, and it doesn't matter if some problems occur in such a powerful country, it is good to stand up.

Liu Lang had read a lot of books about the collapse of the Soviet Union in his previous life, and when this behemoth collapsed, the whole world was dumbfounded, and even the Americans, who had been punching behind their backs, could not believe that they would succeed, let alone China.

The fundamental reason for this is, of course, their internal affairs, the contradictions have accumulated to the maximum, and once they erupt, they cannot be stopped, but there is also a certain accidental factor in this, that is, this Gorbachev was "rebelled" by the Americans When the supreme leader gives up control of the country, then the country will inevitably fall into chaos, the first thing is that the army and the police are at a loss, once these two departments are unable to exercise their rights, it means that the country has no laws, and everyone can do whatever they want, so it is no wonder that such a country is not chaotic.
