Chapter 221

"In my lifetime, there will be no real poisoners in China. The process may consume some time in the process of perfection for one reason or another, but the pace of progress will never stop. ”

The above is the accompanying text on the cover of Time magazine, and the cover shows a young soldier with a stern and confident face, wearing a steel helmet, a pair of binoculars around his neck, his hands crossed at his waist, his eyes are blazing, and there seems to be an enemy waiting for him to destroy. In the upper left corner is the huge title: Winner of the Far Eastern War!

Wall Street, a window office in a building. Fisher was silently looking out the window at the city, and on the desk in front of him was a copy of the latest Time magazine. At this moment, Fisher's mood was unusually calm. Once again, the Venerable Fang fulfilled his god-like prediction, and the war broke out in Europe, and it was fought inexorably, forming a situation of a long war. Although Fisher did not dare to be overly confident in such a prediction before the outbreak of the war, he still made a large investment according to Fang Jianxiong's intentions. The original mentality was out of the unreserved trust of the other party Jianxiong, and now these trusts have been reported. Fisher's gains in the financial markets were huge, with less than $300 million a year.

Fisher did not doubt that Fang Dashuai was an Eastern wizard who could make predictions with great accuracy. His view is that the respectful and noble Fang can always stand at a height that others cannot reach and look at the changes in the world. This kind of forward-looking vision has exerted great power more than once. As such, Fang is now the de facto head of state. Fisher served the party and was paid handsomely. Financial interests aside, Fisher now has a title: "The Wizard! Because he seems to be able to predict the future! The accuracy of his vision in investment is unbelievable to his peers. European war is such a difficult thing to predict. You can bet right!

Fisher is now the hottest financier on Wall Street! Not one of them!

The war brought death and destruction to Europe, and it brought one of the most important opportunities of the century to the United States, and a huge amount of wealth poured into the United States as the war intensified. The U.S. economy is at its most prosperous. In the year leading up to the war, the Venerable Fang invested in private property in the United States, and these investments are now making crazy profits. Because of the war, both Britain and France were waving cheques. Purchase a qiē in order to win the war.

If Fang Jianxiong was a noble angel in Fisher's mind before, now he is a god-like being.

The sound of the high heels stepping on the high heels alarmed Fisher's deep thought. Walking in was the slim girl Alice.

"My dear! What are you doing here? "Fisher had some of an accident. Alice stepped forward with a smile and said, "I knocked on the door, but you didn't hear it, so I pushed the door myself and came in." Seeing Time magazine on the table, Alice's eyes changed slightly. Reaching out and gently touching the face of the man on the cover. said softly in a low voice: "Fang is still so resolute and handsome. ”

"Alice, don't you have to accompany Ms. Lu?" Fisher stood up and hugged her daughter. Alice kissed her father on the face and said, "Lu has decided to return to China, and I also plan to go to China to have a look." ”

Fisher hesitated for a moment, did not persuade his daughter, and said with a smile: "That's fine," "As long as you're happy." I will convince your mother to accede to your request. ”

Alice: "Thank you, I know you'll have my back." ”

Three days later. A fleet of more than 10,000 tons of cargo ships and a cruise ship across the Pacific Ocean. To China.

When Alice and Lu Bicheng stood side by side on the deck, the advantage of oriental women's tender faces was quite obvious. Despite being in his thirties, Lu Bicheng looked like he was in his early twenties. The two stood together, naturally attracting countless eyes. Especially Alice, the figure advantage of Western women, under the backdrop of well-fitting clothing, is sexy and not dignified. The only regret is that the girl lacks the activity that a young man should have, and seems to stand there very quietly.

"Alice, he won a difficult war and won a chance for a people with a long history to catch up with the world." Lu Bicheng spoke in a low voice, Alice didn't seem to agree with this, smiled and affirmed: "He will always win, he will not lose." I've never doubted that. ”

Lu Bicheng couldn't help but be dumbfounded, that's right, at the beginning of the Sino-Japanese War, Lu Bicheng was full of worries. He expressed to Alice many times that he was worried that the war led by Fang Jianxiong would fail. But Alice told her very simply: "Don't worry, you can definitely win!" In this world, there is nothing that you want to do and can't do. "This kind of blind trust is unbelievable. But as it turns out, Alice was right.

"Who knows? All these years in the United States,

Help him watch the slow growth of those industries, but he didn't expect the war in Europe to break out, and now the warehouse is empty enough to run mice. At the beginning, I really had the heart of "Chapter 221 of the Republic of China Heroes to catch up", and so many goods turned back into a backlog of scrap. Lu Bicheng expressed her feelings again, but Alice looked at her with reproachful eyes and said, "Lu, you shouldn't doubt Fang, then it's the slightest bit of disrespect to him." ”

The blindness and madness of the girl who had just graduated from college in front of her made Lu Bicheng feel tremendous pressure. I don't know what it will be like to see Fang Jianxiong again.

While the steamer was sailing on the vast sea, Fang Dashuai was in the General Staff to follow the course of the war in Europe. The new changes that took place in the battle of Gorlice were a huge shock to the Wehrmacht. Fang Dashuai has always maintained secret contact with the German side, and he can always get the news of the European war as soon as possible.

In the way of how to use tanks, the Germans had superior talents. There are only three people who can see this level of meeting, Jiang Fangzhen, Cai Yi, and Zhang Xiaohuai. Huang Xing could not attend the military meeting of this very small circle.

"That's the huge change that industrialization has brought about! The mode of war, with the arrival of industrialization in the city, ushered in the opportunity for another drastic change. Now the three of you won't say I'm betraying the country, will you? After Fang Jianxiong reported the situation, he made a joke.

The Sino-US friendship and cooperation agreement brings more than just American capital. The key is American industrial technology. The only shortcut for China to achieve initial industrialization in the shortest possible time is to do so. Although the cost is enormous, the qiē is worth it.

"We need to increase our tank factories by at least ten to the level of a thousand tanks per year." Jiang Fangzhen seems to be a lion opening his mouth, but in fact, this is not excessive. Quite simply, the "heroes of the Republic of China" Americans have a high interest in combat vehicles and are willing to provide funds and technology to jointly develop new combat vehicles. Because the Chinese took the lead and achieved great results, this aroused the interest of the Americans and they were willing to invest huge sums of money in this area. The so-called tank factory is actually a Sino-US tank cooperation institute located in Wuwei County. In terms of technology and capital, there is a big gap between the Chinese side, but the Americans should avoid detours and learn from China's successful experience. More importantly, at this time, the United States did not yet have the consciousness to be a world hegemon. Besides, in terms of industrial capacity, if China can reach the level of producing 1,000 tanks a year, the Americans can easily explode 10 times as many tanks.

"The tank is a complex combination, there are a lot of technologies involved, and the vehicles we use now are quite rudimentary. There is not much money to bargain with the Americans. Therefore, we must first expand the production of special steel in Wuhan, without which the production of tanks is an empty word. The second is engine technology, which is the top priority of Sino-US cooperation as far as we are concerned. The technology of engines is used in a wide range of applications, not only in tank technology, but also in aviation, automobile manufacturing, and so on. Finally, there is the study of military tactics. Let's put it this way, our military and tactical research and exploration are all based on the existing industrial base. Or how to say that we are lucky, Europe is at war and we have the time and space to catch up. Guys, don't take this as too simple, there are too many things that need to be done. The most optimistic estimate is that by the end of the thirties, a relatively complete defense industrial system will be completed. This is also due to the fact that we are a large country and do not lack the resources needed for development. When Fang Jianxiong said this, Zhang Xiaohuai suddenly raised his hand.

"Fuguo, we don't have oil, didn't a certain American magazine say that China is poor in oil?"

Fang Jianxiong sneered at the "entertainment show": "He said that if he didn't, there would be no more?" China is so big, what is buried in the ground, who can be sure? Let's talk about this later, after you go back, in view of the new changes in the European war, summarize the experience of others, and pay attention to the confidentiality of research results. After a few words, Fang Jianxiong ended the meeting.

After seeing the three of them leave, Yang Yongtai hurriedly came and said, "Fu Shuai, the United States is calling, Mr. Lu and Miss Alice are leaving from San Francisco." At the same time, there were fourteen freighters, with rifles delivered by the Americans, as well as aircraft purchased from the United States. This is the original text of Mr. Lui's telegram. ”

Fang Jianxiong took the telegram and read it, and wrote: The people are back, and the goods are here. Only the people around Fang Dashuai know what these goods refer to and how many quantities. This is the first bonus of the European war, and all of them have been replaced by machine equipment. These devices can be pulled back, and a large thermal power plant, a large machine-building plant, and an engine plant can be built. Fang Jianxiong did not rely entirely on the United States, and in a military unit near Wuhu, more than 100 political experts gathered from Europe were quietly developing China's own engine technology. Fang Jianxiong's search for European technical talents is only the beginning. There are even bigger plans to be phased in over the next two decades. China's footsteps in catching up with the world have actually just begun. (To be continued.) )
