News from the officialdom of Lingxi Province. Naturally, it has nothing to do with Fan Wuxi.
After staying in Shanghai for a while and taking charge of the relief and assistance work for the 921 earthquake in Taiwan for a while, Fan Wuzhi returned to the capital with Shen Ying.
By this time, the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China had passed.
Although the scale of this year's National Day military parade is not small, it is somewhat unsatisfactory in terms of both the weather and the number of new weapons.
Earlier this year, after the bombing of the embassy, senior leaders and military leaders have realized the importance of national defense construction, especially high-end weapons, so domestic military production has begun to heat up, and military research institutes have also begun to enter a new round of development.
It is only at this time that the results of these works are naturally not yet visible, and without the efforts of 10 or 8 years, it is impossible to raise the national defense work to a higher level, so some of the weapons and equipment launched this year are still old-fashioned equipment that has not been changed, and it is nothing more than a shell.
The equipment teams participating in the review included Type 88C main battle tanks, Type 85III main battle tanks, Type 90-Z551 wheeled combat vehicles, Red Arrow 8 anti-tank missile vehicles, Seahawk-2 anti-ship missiles, Hongqi-61 anti-aircraft missiles, C803 anti-ship missiles, Dongfeng-15 surface-to-surface missiles, Hongqi-7 anti-aircraft missiles, Dongfeng-21 surface-to-surface missiles, Dongfeng-31 surface-to-surface missiles, and so on.
Overall, there are no weapons of mass destruction that are sufficiently deterrent, and the deterrent effect on overseas teenagers is slightly insufficient, and the number is also somewhat thin.
When Minister Zhang was talking to Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying at home, he felt a lot of regret about this, "The strength of the country is still a little weaker!" ”
Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying came to meet the elders after their honeymoon, Minister Zhang, the uncle of his mother's family, naturally had to come to visit, and Fan Wuxian himself had a good relationship with Minister Zhang, so everyone chatted more speculatively.
"Economic strength and comprehensive national strength are two different concepts." Fan Wuzhi said to Minister Zhang, "Military strength is also a very important component, and if the military strength is not improved, the country will not be strong. ”
From the new equipment unveiled in this year's National Day military parade, it can still be seen that the comprehensive national strength that is the support for its development has been greatly improved, and from this we can realize the importance of the unity of a rich country and a strong army.
The fifties were the first golden period of China's economic construction. From 1950 to 1958, the national output value tripled, and the army's equipment was greatly improved year by year during the annual military parade. However, from the early 60s to the late 70s, the country's economic development entered a tortuous and difficult period, and the National Day military parade also came to a halt for 25 years.
It was not until 1984 that the long-awaited military parade was ushered in, but in the same year, China's gross national output value was equivalent to $300 billion, ranking eighth in the world; in addition, the state reduced military spending to ensure that economic construction was the center, and the technical level of fighters, tanks, and artillery equipped by the troops generally lagged behind the world's advanced level by more than one generation. At that time, the officers and soldiers who referred to the reference were changed into 85-style military uniforms with large-brimmed hats in advance without military ranks, and this transitional clothing style was still indistinguishable from regular uniforms and training uniforms, and the style was simple and cloth.
With the rapid development of China's economy, the gross national product exceeded $1 trillion in 1997, ranking sixth in the world, and the country had the financial resources to increase national defense investment in the late 90s.
The performance of most of the weapons participating in the review is close to the world's advanced level, which shows that China's national defense undertaking has begun a new take-off after going through a period of twists and turns and patience. Moreover, the troops participating in the parade this time wore the 87-style series of clothing with existing military ranks, and were divided into three categories: ceremonial uniforms, regular uniforms, and training uniforms, indicating that the domestic military uniforms have entered a new stage of higher level and serialization, and the military style has also undergone a new change compared with the previous military parades in the past.
As a matter of fact, the most important function of the military parade is to test the level of military training of the troops and the basic quality of the officers and men. It is impossible to do it without a lot of training.
A comparison between the military parade of 1984, the heyday of the Soviet Union, and the military parade on the anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War in Russia is very revealing.
It can be said that Russia spared no expense in organizing the military parade on Red Square, and the cost and lineup of troops required were no less than those of the military parade in 1984, but the final result proved that the quality of this face-saving project is indeed not flattering.
Because, the spirit of the Soviet army, which is arrogant and overwhelming, has disappeared from the current Russian army, and the queue is obviously uneven, and there is even a phenomenon of turning heads and ears on the way.
Although the soldiers participating in the parade have changed into brand-new military uniforms and are equipped with the most advanced weapons, and the scene is also extremely large-scale, under the gorgeous coat, it is still impossible to hide the fact that the training level of the Russian army has seriously declined due to economic difficulties every year, so the military parade is not only a window for the army to display its image, but also a comprehensive test of its own combat effectiveness and training level.
"The economy is the foundation, the military is the guarantee, and both are indispensable." Fan Wuxian said to Minister Zhang, "Now that the Military Commission has come out of the General Armament Department, isn't it just to make up our minds to improve the strength of weapons and equipment?" According to this leading ideology, in another 10 years, by the time of the 60 th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, army building will take on a completely new look. ”
Minister Zhang nodded, and then said, "Now it's just that time flies too slowly to produce results, and when it comes to ten years, I'm afraid I should retire, and I don't know if I can see the military parade at that time." ”
"Uncle, you're not yet sixty years old. Ten years later, it will not be seventy, how can it not be seen? Fan Wuxian smiled and said, "Are you not confident in my medical skills, or are you not confident in your own leadership skills?" ”
"You kid, you can always make people blocked and have nothing to say." Minister Zhang pointed at Fan Wuxian and smiled, and then said to Shen Ying, "Good nephew and daughter, you have to take a good look at this guy, if you don't pay attention, you will be abducted by others." ”
To tell the truth, Minister Zhang is very worried about his nephew daughter Shen Ying, Fan Wuxian makes him young and romantic, plus his image and temperament are excellent, and he is the object of media attention, there are countless girls who admire him, although he is satisfied that Shen Ying has found this husband, he also knows that this is a double-edged sword, men are too good, and they will always attract the attention of many women.
Although Shen Ying is now also the boss of several large companies and has the ability to call the wind and rain in the business world, Minister Zhang feels that as a daughter, she is naturally three points weaker than men, especially in terms of emotional setbacks. In his eyes, Shen Ying was still the same as the hairy girl who was lifted around in his arms that day, and she needed the care of her elders.
After listening to Minister Zhang's words, Shen Ying smiled slightly and didn't say anything.
Fan Wuxian laughed twice, then replaced the wine with tea, and toasted Minister Zhang, since he was reborn, he had thought about a lot of problems, and he had more experience, when the soul that had already become an adult was trapped in the body of a baby. I'm afraid that he has long been unable to hone his mind, so he can understand Minister Zhang's worries as an elder.
"In other words, it doesn't make sense for you to live like this, you have to find a home where you can settle down, right? Otherwise, going around all day long, without a qualitative character, is not conducive to the life of husband and wife. Minister Zhang said to the two.
Fan Wuxian estimated that this must also be the meaning of Shen Ying's parents, but it is easier for Minister Zhang to say it, and it is not easy to think that a character like Shen's father who is extremely shrewd should fight for his daughter's rights in such a tortuous way, and he has to worry about being disgusted by his son-in-law.
So Fan Wuxian replied, "In fact, there are our houses in various places, but to really settle down, it is not a sentence that can be solved, after all, although the current communication is convenient, sometimes I always need to go around and inspect the operation of the various enterprises under it, and it is impossible to nest in one place." If Yingying decides where we will put our home, we will focus on building it. ”
After Shen Ying heard this, she said to Fan Wuxian, "Didn't you buy a few islands in Australia?" We've got our home there. ”
"Huh?!" Fan Wuxi almost choked on the tea when he heard this, and coughed twice before saying, "Such a desolate breath will make people depressed to death-"
Shen Ying snorted and said, "I know that you can't bear to be lonely, so it's better to settle down in Suzhou or Hangzhou." ”
"Oh, that's what I thought too." Fan Wuxian nodded and agreed, Suzhou or Hangzhou have their own industries, and when the time comes, build a residential area and surround their own houses, in that case, the safety will be better.
And if you settle down in Suzhou or Hangzhou, it will be a matter of minutes to go to the Shanghai headquarters with the largest daily business volume.
Speaking of Hangzhou. Fan Wuxian thought that there was a large piece of house given to him by others, but he hadn't gone over to see it for a while.
There are no pop-ups
