After sending a telegram to Liu Yimin, Ni Hua seemed to be comforted in his heart, and even his appetite was a little better, and after a few days of fundraising in New York, he began to visit the New York Bei factory, focusing on visiting Bell Labs.

The reason why Ni Hua wanted to visit Bell Labs was because last year, Bell Labs successfully developed the world's first mobile phone phone for the United States. With this thing, the communication of the troops is more convenient and fast. According to Liu Yimin's explanation before departure, he asked Ni Hua to negotiate with Bell Labs, and it was best to order a batch of base station equipment and mobile phone phones from them. Considering that this product has not yet been equipped with the US military, the US military has a limited understanding of it, and although it is a product that is strictly secret and strictly prohibited from exporting, it will definitely have a chance. After all, the United States is a market economy, and orders are the basis for the survival of enterprises. Bell Labs may accept the order from the Eighth Route Army. If it really doesn't work, I want to invite Bell Labs to come to Zhongyuan to open a branch company.

The full name of this Bell Labs is "Bell Telephone Laboratories Corporation", which is owned by the American Telephone and Telegraph Corporation and Western Electronics. At this time, the Bell Telephone Experiment Division had been renamed Bell Labs, and the headquarters was located in New York.

Ni Hua had limited time, and she had to go to Washington to wait for President Roosevelt to receive her. Therefore, Ni Hua took Chen to visit Bell Labs, and met with Mr. Walter and Kidford, president of the American Telegraph Corporation, which was established by the research department of the Western Electronics Corporation that he acquired, and is the actual head of Bell Labs.

Bell Labs' reputation was already gaining fame at this time, mainly because Bell Labs scientist Carl Yansky had studied electrostatic noise in long-distance communications, and discovered that the center of the Milky Way was continuously emitting radio waves, which were called karmic background radiation, and thus established radio astronomy. In addition to this major achievement, Bell Labs has produced a series of patent achievements, which can be said to be full of talents and outstanding achievements.

Walt, Mr. Kidford did not show much interest in Ni Hua and his party, and he told Ni Hua bluntly that China was in a period of war, and it was not suitable for research or production, and Bell Labs had no intention of opening a branch company in China, nor could it sell any equipment and products to China, because the decision of all this was in Washington.

Ni Hua couldn't imagine that Walter and Mr. Kifford refused so resolutely, leaving no room at all, and wanted to fight for it again, so he began to tell about the brutality of the Japanese and the great sacrifices made by the people of the Central People. When it comes to the emotional situation, I can't help but burst into tears.

Mr. Walter and Mr. Kidford, as the president of the American Telegraph Company, is very sensitive to the movements of the news media, and he is well aware of the two press conferences held by Ni Hua in New York, and he has also carefully read the newspaper reports, otherwise he would not have seen Ni Hua. It's just that what Ni Hua wants is the secret of the United States, Walt, and Mr. Kifford can't do anything.

Walt, Mr. Kidford wanted to ask Ni Hua to leave several times, but he didn't open his mouth when the words came to his lips. This is not his style, and under normal circumstances he would have long since ended the meeting. The main reason is that the ** war in the Zhongyuan country is really cruel, and the violent behavior of the Japanese makes the people who hum a sense of justice deeply sympathize with the people of the Zhongyuan country.

Seeing Ni Hua talking and crying, Walt, Mr. Kidford had no choice but to tell Ni Hua that his American Telegraph and Telecommunications Corporation could donate money, and as for the equipment and products he wanted, he had to be authorized by Washington, otherwise he could only say sorry.

Speaking of which, Ni Hua knew that wasting time here again would have no effect, so he had to thank Walter and Mr. Kifford, and got up to say goodbye.

With this lesson, Ni Hua knows that we can't just rely on media propaganda, and we have to rely on two channels to really solve the problem, one is to see when the US government will really change its position, and the other is to let Minhua Public Company buy quietly through commercial channels.

President Roosevelt had not yet arranged a reception, and Ni Hua took advantage of the time to go to New Jersey. This is what Liu Yimin told her to go. After arriving in New Jersey, Han Qing saw that he could often see the sign of the military restricted area, so he couldn't help but feel itchy, and with his own skills, he quietly slipped to the port of New Jersey to observe, and came back to tell Ni Hua that this New Jersey is actually the main arms production area of the United States, and there are many docks in the port of New Jersey, which seem to be starting production, and it seems that all warships should be built, because there are naval guards.

Don't look at what Ni Hua said at the press conference, which is extremely touching, in fact, she doesn't understand military and industrial manufacturing, let alone Liu Yimin's ability to analyze and judge things. However, during the war years, people were more sensitive. Ni Hua is Liu Yimin's wife again, and she listens to Liu Yimin a lot of things between words on weekdays, and some things can still affect her divine scriptures. Shake hands and play dedication. As soon as Han Qing said, Ni Hua immediately thought of Liu Yimin's persuasion of Shen Honglie to run a naval school in Shandong, and thought that if he could recruit a group of naval instructors and shipbuilding talents from here to go back, Liu Yimin would be happy, and maybe he would even think about capturing the Japanese warships to build the navy!

Although Ni Hua doesn't understand military affairs, she has experience in recruiting talents, which of the talents in the Eighth Route Army who did not recruit back to China? Since this idea was born, Ni Hua immediately began to take action, set up a recruitment office for volunteers to aid China, and sent a telegram to ask Chen Yuanjie, the person in charge of the Minhua Public Welfare Division, to come to New Jersey to organize an office and make every effort to handle this matter.

As soon as he had a clue, Hu Shi called to inform him that President Roosevelt had decided to meet Ni Hua and asked her to rush to Washington immediately and wait for the meeting.

Speaking of which, President Roosevelt and Ni Hua are also alumni of Columbia University.

Last time, Ni Hua met President Roosevelt with his mentor Mr. Doug, and President Roosevelt was very happy to meet again after the farewell, and he also needed to know the true situation of the Sino-Japanese War from Ni Hua.

The reception began at breakfast.

The presidential breakfast meeting was attended by Secretary of State Hull and Brigadier General Marshall, Deputy Secretary of the War Department.

The president's wife, Eleanor, did not see Ni Hua last time, but this time she saw Ni Hua's photo in the newspaper and admired it greatly and personally organized the breakfast party.

Needless to say, Hull is the secretary of state in charge of US diplomacy, and the main reason why Marshall was invited to attend the breakfast meeting was because he had served as deputy commander of the 15th Infantry Regiment of the United States in Tianjin, and the current international situation was changing, and President Roosevelt would soon give Marshall more important tasks, so he was specially asked to attend the breakfast meeting.

Milk, bread, caviar, snow-white cloths, napkins.

Ni Hua made full preparations for this visit to President Roosevelt, and not only carefully discussed with Liu Yimin before leaving Shuanggou, but then went to Chongqing, where Jiang Jieshi and Vice Chairman Zhou gave detailed instructions. Before the meeting, Hu Shi and Ni Hua studied in detail, saying and not saying anything. To tell the truth, on the issue of Ni Hua's visit to the United States, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are highly unanimous, and there is only one goal, that is, to find ways to get the Americans to break off trade relations with Japan and instead support the Sino-Japanese War of Resistance.

President Roosevelt was in his second term as president.

President Roosevelt was kind, but Eleanor, the president's wife, was a loud voice.

As soon as she saw Ni Hua, Eleanor said, "Welcome, little girl from Zhongyuan." "The attitude is very intimate.

Eleanor was born in New York into one of the best families in the United States, but since she was a child, she had no chapter to speak of because of her mediocre appearance, married Franklin and Roosevelt, and gave birth to six children. Now, Eleanor's main energy is devoted to the newspaper syndication column "My days" and the defense of human rights, especially to the fate of the Jews who were persecuted by the Napus. Some political opponents attacked Eleanor for her mediocre appearance and rough voice, which damaged the image of the United States; Others say that Eleanor is homosexual, and she is close friends with the star female reporter Lorena and Hickok, and the two have skin to skin.

Ni Hua has been studying in the United States for a long time, and she has more or less seen these things in some newspapers. Before leaving, Ni Hua once told Liu Yimin that she had a headache to see the president's wife. Liu Yimin told her not to listen to those rumors, and that it did not matter whether the president's wife was homosexual or not, but that she helped President Roosevelt establish a warm image in the minds of American voters. This is as unimportant as whether President Roosevelt had a lover or not, but what matters is that Roosevelt's New Deal quickly freed the United States from its economic crisis.

Ni Hua expressed her gratitude to Mrs. Eleanor for her hospitality with the etiquette unique to oriental women, and said that when she saw Mrs. President, she remembered her second cousin, Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Sun, and her third cousin, Mrs. Jiang, Ms. Song Meiling, who all loved, protected, and cared for her.

With a standard New York accent like a yellow jacket, a gentle and lovely image, and elegant and generous oriental etiquette, Mrs. Eleanor immediately had a good impression of Ni Hua, not only gave up her seat in person, but also helped Ni Hua set the tableware herself.

President Roosevelt spoke: Dr. Ni Hua, I heard that you brought me a letter from Mao Zedong, chairman of the Chiang Kai-shek Committee and leader of the Communist Party? ”

Ni Hua originally planned to go to President Roosevelt's office after the breakfast meeting to deliver the letter, but President Roosevelt's question, Ni Hua immediately understood, the opportunity was at this breakfast meeting, and President Roosevelt did not have time to meet her in the office.

Ni Hua hurriedly stood up, took out the letter from Chiang Kai-shek and Mao Ze-dong to Roosevelt from his bag, respectfully handed it to President Roosevelt, and said: "Mr. President, this is a handwritten letter from Mr. Chiang Kai-shei, the leader of the State Government, to you. ”

Roosevelt was in a good mood, and after receiving the letter, he said: "Mr. Chiang Kai-shek sent such a beautiful messenger to deliver the letter, which shows that the leaders of the Central Kingdom attach great importance to the development of relations with the United States of America!" ”

The air was fresh this morning, and the president's words were full of joy, and Hull and Marshall were all smiling when they heard it. Including the president's wife, who had a jiban expression, had a long-lost smile on her face.

Chiang Kai-shek's letter was very long, and the main content was to report on the situation of the Sino-Japanese war and ask the United States to support the Sino-Japanese war of resistance. In the letter, Chiang Kai-shek put forward two views, one was that if the Sino-Japanese War failed, the whole of East Asia would become Japan's sphere of influence. Japan, whose power has soared, will inevitably further expand its aggression. The second point of view is that Japan is now pressuring Britain and the United States, especially Britain, on the issue of the concession between China and the United States, and it is very likely that Japan will compromise with Japan. Chiang asked President Roosevelt to take steps to encourage Britain to stand firm and not to allow Britain to compromise with Japan.

After reading the letter, Roosevelt began to inquire in detail about the situation of the Sino-Japanese War of Resistance, such as how much strength the Japanese army had invested, how many troops the Central Brigade still had, the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and whether the Eighth Route Army could persist in the War of Resistance behind enemy lines, and so on. He even asked about the grain production in North China, whether the women of the Central Territory were still bound to their feet, the extent of the Soviet Union's support to the Central Empire, how the Eighth Route Army came up with the idea of trying Gu Shoufu for war crimes, how the Eighth Route Army's aviation brigade blew up and sank the Japanese aircraft carrier squadron Longsu, and so on.

Roosevelt asked very carefully, and neither Hull nor Marshall moved the knife and listened carefully.

These questions, strictly speaking, should not be asked to Ni Hua, should be asked Jiang Jiejieshi or He Yingqin, Ni Hua is a woman's family, where can he know so much? Eleanor was worried about Ni Hua on the side.

To Eleanor's surprise, Ni Hua was really good, and whenever Mr. President asked, she basically answered fluently. Of course, there are some things that are the secret of the Chinese country, and it is inconvenient to tell the Americans, such as how many military troops the Chinese country has, how large the Soviet Union's aid to the Chinese country is, and so on.

After President Roosevelt asked, Secretary of State Hull asked whether the Communist Party's policy of confiscating landlords' land and distributing it to the poor was still being practiced in the Communist Party's base areas.

This question seems simple, but in fact it is very important, and it involves the political direction of the CCP.

Ni Hua briefly talked about the uprisings of the peasant people in the Central Yuan Kingdom since ancient times because of the land issue, and then introduced the policy of rent reduction and interest reduction that our party is now implementing, and also introduced the situation of the implementation of the county, district, and village political power and people's main election in the Shaanxi and Shandong base areas, and also introduced the measures taken by the Eighth Route Army base areas to protect industry and commerce and to develop the economy through deposit and exchange.

In order to illustrate the problem, Ni Hua emphatically cited the example of the Eighth Route Army's practice of cultivating land and promoting the cultivation of crops twice a year, and briefed President Roosevelt, Secretary of State Hull, and General Marshall on the situation of the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army in developing the economy of the base areas behind enemy lines. In particular, he put forward Liu Yimin's policy of warmly welcoming Chinese and foreign enterprises to set up enterprises in the base areas, as he said in Shaanxi.

Ni Hua did not talk about these things at yesterday's news conference, and she did not know these things when she first met President Roosevelt, but Liu Yimin specially told her this time and asked her to introduce them to the Americans. Therefore, Roosevelt, Eleanor, Hull, Marshall all listened with relish.

After Ni Hua finished speaking, President Roosevelt pondered for a while and said: "It seems that Roosevelt's New Deal needs to add one more content, that is, to encourage foreigners to set up enterprises in the United States and encourage foreign talents to come to the United States for development. ”
