Chapter 1219: Super Laboratory

In February 1903, when the whole of Europe and America was trembling under the devastation of the economic crisis, the news that shocked the world also came from Far Eastern China, the Beijing government issued a government announcement, and the national premier Qin Kai announced that due to health reasons, he would no longer hold the administrative post of national premier, but only the position of the leader of the Baath Party.

The day after the news was announced, the Chinese National Assembly elected Zhou Ruidong, who had long served as the chief of the Ministry of Military Affairs, to take over the post of premier.

"The era of the strong rise of Far East China and its assertive foreign policy seems to have come to a halt for the time being, and we should immediately look for opportunities to maintain closer economic interests with Far East China!"

Qin Kai naturally didn't go home to accompany Qi Damei and Miss Song, nor was he unwell for some reason, so he temporarily stepped down from the altar and let his students accept the management of the state, that was because he had more important things to pay attention to, and the release of this news was also more conducive to maintaining the current trend of China's rapid economic growth.

What's more, the secret scientific research base that has been built in Liaohe, no matter who it is handed over, Qin Kai has his own worries, and after careful consideration, this needs to be led by himself, which may be the only way.

In May, Nikolai, who already has a slew of amazing titles in the global tech world? Tesla received a telegram from Qin Kai, and the mustachioed monster who had recently been obsessed with sending radio signals to Mars had no intention of paying attention to his invitation, but was soon attracted by the future that Qin Kai was going to show him in the telegram.

In just two months, a large number of dense houses have been erected in the military restricted area outside Liaoyang. The direct units of the Northern Military District have taken full responsibility for taking over the defense of the entire region. After passing through a series of heavily guarded posts. In a castle deep underground in the center of the military restricted area, he met Qin Kai, who was personally presiding over the meeting.

Here, Tesla saw a large number of outstanding scientists he had worked with, including almost all aspects of chemical engineering, physics, machinery, etc., and this lineup obviously surprised Tesla!

"Dear Qin, you have built such an exaggerated fortress here, are you going to conduct scientific research in the fortress!" Tesla was obviously not very satisfied with the journey, after all, it had come all the way from Fujian. He wasted a lot of time on the road, and for him, time was far more precious to him than money.

Qin Kai saw that the mustache was coming, so he naturally wouldn't let this guy continue to flee back to the ponytail room to do his inexplicable new research, this guy is undoubtedly the most outstanding science geek of this era, but this guy's brain-opening frequency is completely beyond anyone's expectations, and almost all of the research sent to his real room was thrown by him to the students, and this guy didn't study high-power short-wave radios. Instead, a large amount of R&D funds were spent on building a super radio frequency device and receiver, which was said to receive signals from Mars.

Qin Kai immediately found a way to fight this guy. "Dear Tesla, I heard that you have recently been working on radio contact with cosmic lifeforms...... I don't know if it's any results, but I'm very interested in it! ”

The bearded monster's EQ was obviously much lower than his high IQ, and he didn't even notice Qin Kai's questioning expression, but explained very sincerely: "The high-power electromagnetic signal receiver I built in the Mawei Shi Yàn room has indeed received several regular cosmic signal sources, but there have been no clear results so far, and I am here today to see the future you mentioned!" ”

Qin Kai smiled, this guy wasted time all day long and didn't do business, don't hit him hard, obviously this guy is estimated to waste a lot of energy on sending telegrams to Martians when he turns around, "Dear Tesla, I have obtained information that Mars is not suitable for any creatures to live at all, so, your recent work may be a waste of time!" ”

"Oh......" Tesla almost lost Qin Kai's so-called information full of interest, although the astronomical telescope is not a new thing in this era, but when it comes to Martian life, this is definitely an incredible topic, "If there is credible information, I can consider increasing the transmission power, so that life on more distant planets can be called from the earth!" ”

…… This time, he immediately almost made Qin Kai vomit blood on the spot, it was obviously not easy to dispel the alien creature summoning plan that the mustache was obsessed with, he immediately decided not to dwell on this issue anymore, and compared it with Tesla, it is estimated that the result will be ugly!

"Dear Tesla, you will soon be able to see in person the information you need, but first we must clarify some necessary agreements, in this highly classified real room, nothing you see and any information you see, can be leaked to the outside world!" Qin Kai smiled and handed over a supplementary agreement.

In the afternoon of the same day, when Qin Kai started the light brain host on the shuttle machine and projected a giant hologram three meters high in the hall of the underground laboratory, everyone present immediately fell into a temporary shock aphasia, and Tesla immediately secretly ran over after half a minute and asked: "Qin, is this the future civilization you are talking about?" This should be some kind of future electronic civilization! ”

What the hell is this guy a scientific monster who shoulders dozens of technological pioneers in the post-era, including the father of electronics, and can so quickly assert that this is not a miracle, but a computer civilization, Qin Kai laughed, just nodded slightly, and then reached out and nodded a pattern on the holographic influence.

In an instant, a huge map of the Milky Way starry sky was displayed in front of everyone, and Tesla immediately flew up a little Mars, a planet that had never been shown in front of the world in this era, was magically quickly enlarged, and a large number of images and pictures from the library were displayed one by one, which suddenly made the scientific monster fall into such a drunken state.

Half a minute later, however, all the bizarre influences were gone, but the leaders of the fields who would be responsible for the future of the country's scientific research could no longer resist the attraction of new technologies.

Two months later, the first large Tesla launch tower was built inside the base, and almost at the same time, several huge iron towers were built......

October. A bizarre fire broke out in the Liaoyang Military Restricted Zone. Fortunately, the experiments carried out at that time were really independent external real rooms. So there was no major damage, and just two days later, when Tesla was testing a large harmonic generator, it directly burned out the power lines of the real yàn base.

After a series of screenings by the optical brain, Qin Kai finally temporarily determined the direction of research and development, and at the same time, a simulation software on the optical brain host in the F170 shuttle was unexpectedly discovered by Tesla, in the next few days. The mustachioed geek has completed an unprecedented simulation experiment with the rudimentary system of Guò, and the holograms projected by the sparks of electricity make people feel like they are real and illusory.

At the same time, the entire economy of Greater China was also under the banner of infrastructure investment in Beijing, completely freeing itself from the unfavorable situation of overseas trade in early 1893, and a large number of agricultural and light industrial products quickly found markets in West Asia, Africa, and South America.

By the end of 1903, when the United States had taken the lead in recovering from this round of economic crisis, Tang Shaoyi submitted a proposal to the cabinet for financial reform on the gold standard for the past four or five years. Due to the soaring international silver price, Qin Kai temporarily lagged behind the key gold standard reform. However, with the rapid growth of domestic and overseas trade, the contradiction of the silver standard has become very prominent.

However, China's Ministry of Finance, which has been secretly preparing for this for a long time, has nearly 1,500 tons of gold and 6,000 tons of silver that it has hoarded over the past decade, and has the ability to solve the reform of the domestic monetary system in a package.

By March, the steady progress of the national currency reform had brought very favorable results to international trade, and silver depreciated slightly in the same month, but the domestic banks, which had taken the lead in using the gold standard, were not affected in the slightest, but continued to short silver for a small time.

Tang Shaoyi's national tax report the following month also set a new record, the state fiscal revenue increased by 24% in the previous year, comprehensively surpassing last year's growth, reaching an astonishing 780 million yuan in revenue, and in the same month, the new government once again announced the development of a package of investment plans including the exploration of Siberian mining areas, the construction of domestic railway networks, road networks, and the construction of the city of Aden.

In that year, China's coal output exceeded 14 million tons for the first time, and steel output surpassed the German Empire for the first time, standing on the second and 8 million tons of steel in the world with an annual output of steel, which has completely thrown Germany and Britain behind it, while the steel output of the German Empire, Britain and the United States did not increase last year, but decreased by nearly 6% respectively......

By March 1904, the domestic economy was in good shape, and the Baath Party won another landslide victory in the national election held that year, and Zhou Ruidong's cabinet was authorized by the National Assembly to continue to lead the steady development of the whole country in accordance with Qin Kai's strategy.

The following month, the Beijing government publicly announced a report on China's military capabilities through state media, which mentioned that China planned to build a giant battleship within the year, although the details of these messages were not disclosed to the public, as is customary...... But less than 10 days later, the Beijing government suddenly announced a reduction in military spending, while hinting that the Chinese Navy's new warships may not be able to enter service as scheduled.

The news of China in the Far East did not affect the naval enthusiasm of Lord Fisher of the Admiralty in London, and Fisher was still unwilling to stop the pace of naval construction in the case of the King-class battleships and Nelson-class battleships being launched one after another, and he proposed a new naval warship design in June, although he did not know that China had launched the Dreadnought battleship, but this design opened a new wave of the European arms race.

Germany took the lead in announcing the construction of a new generation of Deutschland-class battleships, and placed an order for 6 at one time, which was only slightly lower than Britain's 8, and then France also announced the construction of two Suferon-class battleships, but the funny thing is that the French did not seem to understand the situation at all, and these two Suferon battleships turned out to be strengthened dreadnought.

Almost at the same time, the first batch of 50 biplanes equipped with Jiangnan V-type liquid-cooled engines entered the active service of the Chinese Air Force, after a series of optimizations, especially in the internal design of the engine with the help of part of the data in the real yàn room quickly achieved a breakthrough, some of the aluminum parts were used, the weight of the whole aircraft was also greatly reduced, and the engine power quickly broke through the bottleneck and increased to a high level of 140 horsepower.
