Listening to Lu Jiadong's words, Blomberg, who had just raised his wine glass, couldn't help but put it down again, his brows furrowed slightly, and his tone became confused:

"Because you love your country?"

"That's right!" As soon as Blomberg's words fell, Lu Jiadong nodded firmly, his calm and confident expression in the past has now added a firmness and persistence, Blomberg has known Lu Jiadong for almost a year, but this is the first time he has seen such a look, which can't help but make Blomberg a little surprised, but Lu Jiadong did not stop what he said, but continued in an unprecedented firm tone:

"Since the Opium War, every generation of Chinese has a dream of a strong country and a strong army in their hearts, and it is under the inspiration of this dream that batch after batch of Chinese have gone forward and worked hard to create the current new China, but although we are independent, we are far behind by the world's advanced science and technology, so we can only sink our minds and continue to catch up!

In order to realize the dream of several generations of Chinese, we did not have a computer, so we used the abacus to calculate and finally calculated the theoretical data of important equipment, breaking the threat of foreign countries; we did not have high-performance testing equipment, so we used hundreds of experiments to make up for it, even if we were tired on the test bench, there was no regret; we did not have good production conditions, so we used local methods to improve it, even if we worked overtime and stayed up late to suffer.

There are millions of such people in China, and they are among the world's top scientists. Down to the ordinary workers in the factory, everyone has no requirements for pay and return, if there is. That is to realize the dream of a strong country and a strong army in my heart, and I, Lu Jiadong, am just an ordinary member of them, what I do may not be so good, but I hope that with my own modest efforts, they will have better conditions to realize the dream in their hearts and make up for the regrets that may arise in the future!"

After saying that. Lu Jiadong's heart couldn't help but be excited, as a military expert who traveled from later generations. He was well aware of the hardships and efforts of the older generation of military workers in order to forge a strong shield for the country and the nation, and perhaps in the damp and gloomy auditorium, the sound of the dial could drown out the majestic rain outside. And just as their fingers went back and forth on the beads of the abacus, the theoretical calculations of the weapons and equipment were confirmed;

Perhaps on the kang head where the north wind was howling, several people shivered and endured the scorching cold wind that kept pouring in, but the drawing pencils in their hands never shivered, and under the sketching of their pencils on the paper several times, the design drawings of weapons and equipment were drawn in this way;

Perhaps in the humble production workshop, the prescribed parts have never been able to meet the standard, and the workers and masters in the whole workshop can only turn black and white upside down. Day and night, I stayed in front of all kinds of machinery and equipment, gnawed on a piece of cold steamed buns when I was hungry, and drank a sip of cold water when I was thirsty. In any case, it is necessary to produce products that meet the standards, even if the mechanical equipment cannot be processed, it is necessary to grind out the parts that meet the requirements with a little manual grinding!

China's atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, ballistic missiles, nuclear submarines, and other weapons and equipment are all the result of these military workers groping little by little, advancing step by step, and climbing layer by layer. However, by the time these weapons and equipment came to fruition, some of these military workers had already been transferred from afar. Some have grown old, and some have left forever.

But no matter what, they have never cared about personal gains and losses, let alone asked for so-called returns, they are just obscure, selfless dedication, no regrets, neither want to get rich nor famous, but with their heart to serve the country, practice their oath - China can no longer be bullied!

It is precisely because of the self-reliance and hard work of such a large number of responsible and responsible military workers that they have laid a solid foundation that will have the explosive growth of the 21st century in terms of military preparation, and if it is said that the 21st century has begun to catch up with and surpass the world, it is fundamentally realized by standing on the shoulders of these older generation of military industrial giants.

Because of this, in Lu Jiadong's view, China has never lacked knowledgeable experts in various fields of military industry, and what is really lacking is support and investment in them, and what Lu Jiadong has done is to obtain more guarantees, as long as there are enough funds, many projects that have been forced to be suspended will be continued, and many regrets that will be sighed by future generations will be made up

Listening to Lu Jiadong's words, Blomberg couldn't help but be a little moved, almost subconsciously raised the wine glass in his hand, and said to Lu Jiadong with feeling:

"Lu, China has a group of people like you, and in less than 50 years, no!

"I'm sure it will!" Lu Jiadong raised the wine glass in his hand and touched Blomberg's wine glass lightly in midair, and then the two drank the wine in the glass

Early the next morning, Liu Haotian, Lu Jiadong, and other members of China's foreign arms sales delegation drove to Islamabad International Airport, and as a passenger plane marked with the words "Civil Aviation of China" took off from the runway of Islamabad International Airport, Lu Jiadong and others left Pakistan with a full harvest and flew slowly in the direction of China

"Haha, Lao Liu, I've finally looked forward to you coming back!" After a few hours of flight, it was already afternoon when I arrived at Beijing International Airport, and as soon as I left the airport hall, I saw Tan Bin, director of the General Staff Armament Department, who had been waiting here for a long time, and greeted him with a friendly smile:

"This time your harvest in Pakistan is not small, I think your name Liu Daring should be changed in the future!"

Liu Haotian was also very happy to see his old comrades-in-arms coming to pick him up, so he didn't get angry when he listened to Tan Bin's joking ridicule, but looked up and down at Tan Bin in front of him with a happy smile, raised his head and asked:

"It's not called Liu Daring, what is it called?"

"I should call you Liu Caishen!" As soon as Liu Haotian's voice fell, Tan Bin responded with a smile without hesitation: "Hundreds of millions of arms sales agreement, let me see, even the God of Wealth in the sky may not be as good as you?

As Tan Bin spoke, he saw Liu Haotian's original happy smile disappear, which made Tan Bin's words stagnate, and he wanted to ask him, but as soon as Tan Bin's words were halfway through, he saw Liu Haotian wave his hand to Tan Bin:

"I don't dare to take the name of this God of Wealth, but there is really a living God of Wealth in our delegation!"

"Who?"

"I said Lao Tan, don't pretend to be confused with me here!" Looking at Tan Bin who was smiling and groaning in front of him, Liu Haotian's face sank, and he pretended to be angry and said: "You know that it is Xiao Lu, and you still knowingly ask like this, what do you mean?"

If it was someone else, how could Tan Bin, as Liu Haotian's old comrade-in-arms, not see that Liu Haotian was pretending to scare people, so he continued to smile and said:

"It seems that your Lao Liu has not been carried away by the victory, and he is still so calm and wise!"

As he spoke, Tan Bin turned his face to Lu Jiadong, who was following Liu Haotian, with a kind smile on his face, and asked softly, "Xiao Lu, did you say that?"

"This" Although Tan Bin asked Lu Jiadong, after all, he and Liu Haotian are both senior cadres at the same level and old comrades-in-arms for many years, it is normal for the two of them to talk and laugh and joke, but it does not mean that others can join casually, because of this, Lu Jiadong did not answer rashly after Tan Bin finished speaking, Lu Jiadong did not speak, but it did not mean that Liu Haotian, who was standing beside him, did not speak, I saw him point at Tan Bin in front of him with his hand, and a friendly smile appeared on his face again:

"I know that your old Tan's mouth is powerful!" But as he spoke, Liu Haotian's expression became serious: "But then again, this time it's really thanks to Xiao Lu, if it weren't for him, even if I tossed out all my hundred pounds, I wouldn't be able to get back the huge agreement of 150 million US dollars, so Xiao Lu is not only the first merit this time, but also a great merit! So, your old Tan's mouth will be kept for me first, and then I will use it when I go to the old chief's place, and then I will ask Xiao Lu for credit!"

"Don't worry, I've been ready for a long time, just waiting for Lao Liu to come back!" Hearing Tan Bin's words, Liu Haotian nodded with a smile, while Tan Bin turned his head to Lu Jiadong's side:

"In addition, I also brought over the things that Xiao Lu has been worried about!"

Listening to Tan Bin's words, Lu Jiadong's eyes suddenly lit up: "Chief, is it possible that the new large-caliber long-range artillery has been officially approved?"

"Yes!" Looking at Lu Jiadong's excited face, Tan Bin nodded affirmatively with an amiable smile: "The old chief personally gave instructions, and the State Council officially approved the project! The project funds are about to be in place!"

"Really, that's great!" Lu Jiadong was really excited to hear the news, feeling that the hard work in Pakistan for more than a month had not been in vain, and the project he had worked so hard to apply for had finally been approved, and this also proved Lu Jiadong's previous judgment, that is, as long as there are enough funds, many military projects can be retained and continued.

Lu Jiadong was happy that the new artillery project was officially established, and on the other side, Liu Haotian pulled Tan Bin aside and frowned, although his voice was small, but his tone was very stern:

"Lao Tan, I know your old comrades-in-arms for so many years, Xiao Lu's role in foreign arms sales this time is irreplaceable, I don't believe you didn't tell the old chief!"

"Do you think the old chief didn't notice?"

"What do you mean to say" Hearing what Tan Bin said, Liu Haotian couldn't help but ask, but before Liu Haotian finished speaking, Tan Bin leaned into his ear and muttered a few words, Liu Haotian's eyes first widened after hearing this, and then he looked at Lu Jiadong not far away, squinted his eyes and nodded:

"The old chief, they are really far-sighted, it seems that Xiao Lu will be really limitless in the future" (to be continued)
