Chapter 104: Luxury

Another thing also made Zhang Chun, who was far away in Wuwei, feel interesting.

Central Hubei is already an economically developed region, but the entire Shayang, Jingshan, Jingmen, and Qianjiang have become the territory of the research institute. There are already nearly 100,000 students, 100,000 researchers, and more than 700,000 engineers and skilled workers. That alone adds up to a million people. Therefore, even Zhong Xiang and Tianmen were also allocated to the research institute, on the one hand, to give more practice bases and breeding bases to the Agricultural Institute. On the other hand, it is also to solve the problem of eating for these people.

And in order to serve these people, it is not enough to count all the family members, so some people in the farm are also moving towards the service industry. Although the population of central Hubei has grown for more than 30 years, the actual number of people engaged in agriculture has decreased.

In 1931, after another distribution of land, the average per household reached 30 acres. If it weren't for the development of some small machinery by the Agricultural Institute and the help of the students of the Agricultural College, some of the land would have been abandoned. The yield of rice, wheat and cotton has reached a limit, and it has not increased much for ten consecutive years, unless there is a breakthrough in hybrid and genetic technology from the agricultural college, Cai Wuji said it is only a matter of time.

Fortunately, the interplanting of a variety of crops and ecological breeding are becoming more and more abundant, and the Xinmin University management area can barely be self-sufficient.

With the accumulation and improvement of residents' income, money has become a scourge. Extravagance and waste are rampant, gambling is prevalent, and if it were not for the severe crackdown, prostitution and drug abuse would have revived. There must always be a way out of the extra money.

The Ministry of Commerce and Industry has tried to let the market regulate freely. But the merchants soon began to stir up, and large amounts of wealth were concentrated on the wealthy. Prices are high, and instead of increasing the flow of goods, they are hoarded and manipulated to manipulate the market. In order to get high profits. Merchants began to pay bribes to officials and wanted to use private capital to invade state-owned capital, which gradually affected the factories owned by the institute.

The people of Dark Moon have mentioned this phenomenon many times, and Guo Hua's supervision department is also investigating and dealing with it.

Zhang Ruoming asked the students of the Department of Economics and Trade to conduct an investigation with the cooperative bank, and came to the conclusion that the market needs to be regulated and planned, otherwise the disorderly flow of money will eventually destroy the overall economic structure.

Huang Liling came up with a way to issue public bonds. That is, the extra money is absorbed into the national level with public bonds, and the state allocates it in a unified manner. This gives private money a way out, which is used for nation-building and investment. The state returns interest to the people. But this is not the final solution.

Zeng Simin proposed to develop luxury goods to consume the money.

Zhang Chun opposes the development of private cars, because enjoyment cannot be at the expense of the environment and resources. The public transportation in several counties in central Hubei has been very developed and can meet the requirements of citizens. It's also easy to get around. Because of the continuous transformation of technology, the speed of trains is getting faster and faster. Trams are also running faster and faster. More and more comfortable and smooth. The improvement of the traffic dispatching system has increased the utilization rate of the transportation system.

However, because the speed of the vehicle is too fast. Therefore, the train and tram systems are doing closed work, and it is very dangerous for people and animals to enter the tracks

Zhang Chun proposed to the Institute of Electronics to improve the camera and playback system, and separately design a small program display. A television bureau was set up in Shayang to produce programs and transmit them to public places by cable. It would be best if it could be narrowed down to home use, so that users could watch TV programs at home.

Based on the principle of container refrigerated trucks, small household refrigerators can be manufactured.

If you say that TVs and refrigerators are not luxuries. Then nothing is considered a luxury. It can solve Zeng Simin's troubles. Because instead of engaging in any luxurious furniture, Gao Hua Residence. It's a little more realistic. No consumption of natural resources.

It's just that you really need to use a TV and a cooler. In many places, existing biogas power plants are insufficient. Zhang Chun was also reluctant to use large coal-fired thermal power stations, which were reserved for factories and were strictly controlled. So Zhang Chun said that he can study solar power generation devices for households, which is also a luxury.

Solar power generation devices have been developed for a long time, and they began to use heat energy conversion to generate electricity. Later, the photoelectric conversion was carried out directly with crystalline silicon plates. It's just that in fact, the pollution generated by the whole system of crystalline silicon is also quite serious, and the environment has been criticized. The pollution of the production process is well controlled. How can the product be recycled after it enters the home?

In fact, the environmental institute has the same concerns about TV refrigerators.

However, Zhang Chun said that it is necessary to maintain the tradition of picking up every bullet casing like the army. All waste and garbage must be recycled and disposed of harmlessly, and cannot be discarded at will.

In the past, all waste was sorted and recycled at waste treatment plants. Now Zhang Chun has asked the city administration to place garbage bins that can be sorted on streets and in places where people are concentrated. Let the people sort their own waste to reduce the heavy sorting work of the waste treatment plant, and also facilitate the continued recycling.

At the same time, Zhang Chun believes that television is not only a luxury, but also a necessity, because it is the best tool for publicity, education and information dissemination.

In March, Liang Sishun was transferred to Xinmin TV as the director and began to prepare and build the TV station.

Liang Sishun has filmed several short films, including publicity, education, and feature films. But it's all taken with film cameras. She was puzzled for a long time when she first saw the all-electronic transmission of photographic technology, but later learned that these signals could be transmitted to different places by cable.

However, Zhang Chun demanded that the TV program be run as well as Xinmin Daily, so that the people could learn about the world's major events at home. In addition to the news studio, the TV station should also have a literary studio and a reporter station. It is necessary to send reporters to various places to cover news, and when the electronic cameras become smaller, they also have to go to the scene to shoot, so that such news can be convincing.

Before the TV station was built, Liang Sishun had to do a good job in planning and team and talent building.

The electronics institute will set up a special home display production plant. Carry out the development of TV monitors. Miniaturization, reduction of failure rate, power consumption to be saved.

Shayang's Academy Square can build a large monitor first, which is not difficult, let Liang Sishun's studio test it first.

Since the general direction is the same as that of the research institute, the research institute has no opinion. Television is just a by-product to them. What they're going to do is artificial intelligence. But he didn't expect that this was actually a means for Zhang Chun to consume private capital.

After hearing that they were going to build a television system, the two research groups of electrical signal transmission and optical signal transmission got to work hard.

In order to complete the signal transmission as quickly as possible, cable transmission was the fastest at that time. But there are so many benefits of fiber optic cable transmission. Fiber optic cable transmission has actually been used in computers. However, optical fiber cannot solve the problem of attenuation during long-distance signal transmission. The person who transmits the high electrical signal smiled and said: You can do your optical fiber well, let's look at us first.

Einstein still favored optical signal transmission, because one transmission channel and at least seven transmission channels are two completely different concepts.

――――――――――

Compared with the vigorous construction of the areas controlled by the People's Army, the areas controlled by the Kuomintang are vigorously engaged in internal fighting.

Long Yun and Chiang Kai-shek teamed up to attack Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi.

On behalf of the Wuhan government, Soong Ching-ling sent a telegram opposing the war, and the military headquarters issued an order for the Central Army to withdraw from the entire territory of Hunan and Jiangxi. The provinces should protect their borders and people, and do not participate in civil wars.

Zhu De issued an order to march the entire territory of Hunan and Jiangxi.

Chiang Kai-shek sent Soong Ziwen to Wuhan to bring Soong Ching-ling, saying that it was not impossible to cede Jiangxi and Hunan, but the central government did not allow these petty warlords to control the localities. Li Zongren has to fight.

As a result, the troops of Hunan and Jiangxi concentrated in the direction of Zhejiang and Fujian and attacked Guangdong and Guangxi.

He Long still didn't fight and took over the remaining territory in Hunan and Jiangxi in vain.

Li Zongren's encounter made Yan Xishan, Han Fuqu, and Shi Yousan feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox died. He also declared anti-Chiang.

To Chiang Kai-shek's dismay, the Gui army and the Dian army fought to a draw, but the Central Army failed several attacks. The war has intensified factional struggles that had previously been confined to verbal quarrels. In April, Yan Xishan crossed Hebei under the control of the neutral Zhang Xueliang and attacked the Central Army with the Shandong coalition. However, with the miscellaneous weapons given by Zhang Chun and some German ordnance, after streamlining and training by military delegations from various countries, the Central Army was no longer what it used to be, and actually blocked the attack of the coalition forces.

It's just that the way of fighting makes the military department, which is closely following the situation, shake his head. This kind of offensive and defensive warfare and war of attrition in positions is simply reckless for human life and wastes money and wastes the people and money.

On May 1, 1931, the Kuomintang Hu Hanmin faction, Sun Ke faction, Wang Jingwei faction, Xishan Conference faction, Liangguang local powerful faction (Chen Jitang, Li Zongren) and Bai Chongxi in Xinjiang and other anti-Chiang forces jointly gathered in Guangzhou and established an anti-Chiang Nationalist Government on the 27th.
