Obviously, Qian Lao is not the kind of old pedant who only knows how to immerse himself in technology.

If the Soviet Union only had a one-sided understanding and assumption of the US "Star Wars program" and concentrated its national resources on the research of cutting-edge military technologies such as high-energy lasers, high-energy particle beams, electromagnetic railguns, and anti-gravity engines at the level of science fiction, God knows how many years it would take and how much money it would have spent to produce results?

If the Soviets were allowed to get into this dead end, thus ignoring the management and construction of other strategic levels, with the existing national economy of the Soviet Union, the consequences would be, and the money really dared not think about it.

"Could it be that this 'Star Wars program' is a trick jointly imposed on the Soviet Union by the United States and Britain?" asked Qian Lao in a sudden realization voice.

"Hehe, I don't know what other people think, anyway, that's what I think. Yang Weiping took a puff of a cigar and smiled lightly: "Because no matter what kind of equipment is deployed to space, its cost is equivalent to the same weight of gold, which is calculated in grams."

Take North Myanmar as an example, if I also want to build a space station in space, I must at least prepare no less than 500 billion US dollars for this project. With the current state of the country's economy in North Burma, I can definitely get this money, but if I invest this huge amount of money in research and development in basic industries, I believe I can achieve more cost-effective results. ”

"Since you didn't plan to do it, why did you ask the Soviet Union for technology in this area?" Qian Lao said as he rolled his eyes at Yang Weiping.

"I can take it back as a technology accumulation!" Yang Weiping said happily: "In terms of aerospace science and technology, there are many things that can be used for civilian use. Besides, given the current development trend of the world pattern, it would be enough for me to build two or three nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and strategic nuclear submarines to ensure Myanmar's national security, and there is simply no way to waste limited funds on the research of space weapons that are not practical for the time being, such as space stations, high-energy lasers, high-energy particle beams, and electromagnetic railguns. However, I think the launch vehicle can still be properly handled. After all, there is still a great demand for satellites in all countries around the world, and the global satellite launch market is still very profitable. ”

Hearing this, Qian Lao asked, half-jokingly, half-seriously: "What do you mean by this, are you preparing to cooperate with China to develop a new type of launch vehicle?"

"It's not impossible to cooperate. Yang Weiping smiled indifferently: "But the location has to be in my territory." I don't want the rocket technology that I came up with at that time to be ruined like Hua Yihang. To be honest, Qian Lao. I'm sure you've always seen what I've been doing over the years.

There may be some things that I am at fault, but I believe that my merits are definitely greater than my faults. If it weren't for Deng Gong, Ye Shuai and others protecting me, I would only be afraid that I would be swallowed by someone now, and there would be no scum left. Speaking from the bottom of my heart, the current atmosphere in China is really not suitable for conducting research, and even if someone wants to do it, the upper authorities will not be able to pull out sufficient scientific research funds. As the saying goes, it's hard for a good woman to cook without rice! Qian Lao, no matter how good your old ability is. Without money, without good instruments and equipment, it will be very difficult for the Long March carrier rocket to go further.

But, in my case, it's different. No matter what, I have the final say, and there will be no interference or influence from any side. You can spend as much as you want. You can have the kind of equipment you want. You can have what kind of talent you want to help. Qian Lao, think about it. If we jointly understand the proton rocket technology thoroughly and then integrate it into the Long March series of rockets, we will definitely be able to make the world's most advanced and safest rocket!"

"I want to come, I'm afraid that I will release people from above!" Qian Lao shook his head with a wry smile and said.

"As long as you always nod your head, you don't have to think about other things. Yang Weiping said confidently: "I have a way to make them loosen." ”

"That's okay!" Qian Lao didn't hesitate any longer, and nodded very simply: "Wait until we get the best rocket in the world." When the time comes, one more copy will be handed over to the state, and the country will not suffer. ”

Hehe, then it depends on what kind of price the country intends to pay! Yang Weiping secretly smiled in his heart, but on the surface, he nodded very happily.

The high-level officials in China naturally raised their hands in favor of Qian Lao and his entourage temporarily staying in North Burma to study the Soviet Union's proton rocket technology. Merely. What they didn't expect was that Qian Lao stayed for ten years!

The celebration of the founding of the new Myanmar has undoubtedly become one of the hottest topics in the international community today.

However, all the governments of countries and regions that have established diplomatic relations with the former North Burma have received invitations with Yang Weiping's signature.

When it was heard that the North Burma Association held a large-scale military parade at the founding ceremony of the new Burma, the world felt that this was the best way to get a comprehensive understanding of the military capabilities of the new Burma, so that there was an endless stream of flights to Mandalay International Airport from all over the world.

On September 29, 1985, there were three days left before the founding ceremony of the new Burma.

Kokang Lao Cai City, the capital city of Kokang Province in New Myanmar, is the political, military, economic and cultural center of northern Myanmar. It is also one of the few large port cities on the China-Myanmar border.

Lao Cai is the first city in North Myanmar to invest a huge amount of money in urban construction, as a commercial city, in terms of scientific planning and management, the government of North Myanmar has fully absorbed the advantages of Switzerland, Denmark and other Nordic developed countries in municipal construction planning and management, and combined with its own characteristics, it will be built into the most suitable garden city for people to live in northern Myanmar.

According to official statistics, the number of businessmen and tourists who come and go in and out of Lao Cai City every day is as high as 1.5 million.

Dabazi Village is one of the 265 administrative villages under the jurisdiction of Lao Cai Municipal Government. Opposite is the South Umbrella Town, Zhenkang County, Yunnan Province, China.

On this day, a group of 24 tourists holding the flag of the Hong Kong International Parade and wearing baseball caps with the same logo of the tour company came to Dabazi Village.

For this kind of group tourists from all over the world, the village committee members and villagers of Dabazi Village have obviously been accustomed to it for a long time, and they are almost all greeted by the owners and waiters who run restaurants, clothing, tourist souvenirs, etc.

A few elderly tourists dressed as old overseas Chinese from Nanyang calmly opened a standard suite in a hotel called Dabazi Tourist Hotel, which is run by the village committee, and seemed to be planning to stay for one night.

After a short period of busyness, the four sturdy and tall young tourists who accompanied the old overseas Chinese went out to guard the door, looking like bodyguards and entourage.

If Yang Weiping saw one of the two old overseas Chinese staying in the room here, he would definitely be surprised. Because, this old overseas Chinese, who is called the boss by his companions, is Jiang Jianfeng, the president of Taiwan's National Government!

"It's been a long time, a long time. Jiang Jianfeng stood in front of the windowsill of the room, looking at a five-star red flag fluttering above Nanumbrella Town not far away, and was full of emotion.

"Yes! I really didn't expect that the courage of being poor and backward and having nothing in my impression would develop so quickly and so well, and its urban construction is no worse than that of Taipei. The answer was an old man who looked to be about sixty years old, with a childish face and a radiant face.

As the president of the Executive Yuan of the Taiwan Government, Yu Guohua originally strongly opposed Jiang Jianfeng's risky activities such as "micro-service private visits". It's just that Yu Guohua obviously had nothing to do with the determined Jiang Dagongzi, and finally had to sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.

More than 20 years ago, Yu Guohua once went to Kokang. At that time, Kokang was indeed poor and white, worse than the county with the worst economy in Taiwan, and there was not even a decent asphalt road.

But today, Yu Guohua not only sees in Kokang that the crisscrossing eight-lane asphalt roads can be seen everywhere, but also overpasses, viaducts, and skyscrapers abound. In particular, the labyrinthine network of underground sewers that can be opened to traffic in it makes President Yu, who once served as the director of the Political and Economic Construction Committee of the Taiwan Government, have to admire the generosity of the North Burmese government.

"It's better to see than to hear. Jiang Jianfeng slowly returned to the sofa circle and sat down, and said with emotion: "As the so-called peep at the small spots and know the whole leopard, I really understand why there is a 'North Burma miracle' in the world today." Mr. Yang is indeed a genius who is good at creating miracles.

Whether a country or a government is well built or not, the construction of administrative villages at the lowest level is the most visible and intuitive way to do so. It seems that in terms of economic construction, we still have a lot to learn from Mr. Yang!"

"Boss, there was one thing I was weird about. The middle-aged man about forty years old standing behind Jiang Jianfeng asked in a puzzled voice: "The economic construction of Northern Burma has only been a little over eight years, where did they get so much money to invest in such a wide range of infrastructure construction?"

"Chu Yu, this question of yours is also what I want to understand most when I come to Myanmar this time. Jiang Jianfeng smiled happily: "If we can also make a 'Taiwan miracle' like Northern Burma, I will be able to have the face to go underground to see my father after I die." ”

"In my opinion, Chu Yu, after meeting Mr. Yang this time, you have to thank people. Yu Guohua smiled and said: "If it weren't for Mr. Yang mentioning yì to the president at the beginning, I am afraid that you are only one of the many English translators around the president." ”

"Gratitude is definitely something to be thankful for. The middle-aged man, who was called Chu Yu by Jiang Jianfeng, said: "I have never understood all these years, I have never met with Baron John Yang, nor have I had any form of contact with him, how did he know about me? How could he nominate me to be the secretary general of the state government with the president?"

This fully shows that Mr. Yang has great powers. Jiang Jianfeng smiled lightly: "It turns out that it is indeed a bit condescending to let Xiao Song be an English translator." Since you became Secretary-General, I have indeed saved a lot of heart. I'm really worried now, Mr. Yang is used to digging into the corners of socialism, and then he will stick his golden hoe on us!" (To be continued......
