Chapter 332: Rushing to the Western Siberian Basin (Asking for Subscriptions, Monthly Passes, and Various !! )

After listening to Li Siguang's words, Chen Feng couldn't help but be impressed by this famous geological expert, China is an oil-poor country that cannot produce oil, and this theory has been widely recognized by people at home and abroad in this era. This arose from the failure of Mobil Oil Company technicians in 1914 and 1916 to conduct petroleum geological surveys in and around Yanchang in northern Shaanxi, where oil was most likely to produce oil in China.

Mobil Oil Company can be called a giant in the oil industry in this era, this giant is not only manifested in the scale of their industry, but also in its oil exploration, exploitation, refining technology, even such a giant has failed, how can others extract oil in China! Therefore, China's theory of oil poverty has gone far and wide!

Unexpectedly, when this argument is generally recognized by people, it is really surprising that Li Siguang can still be so convinced that China is not an oil-poor country.

"Mr. Zhong Gong, like you, I myself firmly believe that there must be oil underneath China. Since the land under our feet can produce gold, silver, copper, and iron, it will certainly be able to produce oil. But even if we can find oil in the country immediately, we will not be able to produce it, and we will not even be able to say it! Chen Feng said.

"What is this for?" Li Siguang asked in surprise.

"We are a weak country, we are suffering from the greatest crisis in modern times, millions of Japanese troops are wreaking havoc on our land, if we find oil in the country now, then it will be like a three-year-old child walking in the city with a mountain of gold worth a huge amount in his arms, maybe because of oil. Not only do we have to suffer from the invasion of the Japanese jackal, but we also have to attract even more ferocious tigers, so even if we have oil, we can't exploit it, at least we can't do it until we drive out the Japanese, let alone let the Japanese know about it! Chen Feng explained.

After Chen Feng's explanation, Li Siguang was immediately relieved, as a geological expert, he knows the value of oil better than anyone else, and in this era, I am afraid that no kind of mineral resources will cause a series of international disputes like oil. Oil, as an important strategic resource, is the object of contention among many imperialist countries.

As Chen Feng said. If China really discovers a big oil field at this time. Then it will not be luck and wealth, but war and misfortune.

Suddenly, Li Siguang felt that the realm of this young general was far higher than he imagined, and his opinion seemed to be different from ordinary people. He doesn't just look at the surface. It also depends on the essence.

"General Chen. What you say makes a lot of sense, but I didn't think it through. But if you ask what it must be the Soviet Union, as far as I know, it is very likely that the underground of several countries in Indochina is also rich in oil. A few years ago, I found bitumen containing petroleum in many countries in Southeast Asia, where it is closer to our country, the cost of exploitation is relatively low, and in the long run it is more suitable than the Soviet Union! Li Siguang said.

"Mr. Zhonggong, now it seems that your statement is very reasonable, but have you thought about what they will do if Japan's domestic resources and the resources plundered from the Chinese battlefield are not enough to support this war?"

"Look out for resources!"

"Yes, it is to look for resources from the outside, and since Japan adopted the form of external expansion to alleviate and save the capitalist economic crisis, it has been decided that they must embark on the path of more large-scale external expansion. Once Japan's domestic resources are insufficient to support the needs of the war, and the Chinese battlefield cannot meet the needs of the army by fighting to feed the war, their eyes will inevitably turn to foreign countries. Judging from Japan's geographical location, the direction of their expansion is nothing more than north and south, the north is to attack the Soviet Union, and the south is to seize Southeast Asia. Don't think about it when you go north, just now in the Nomenkan area, the Soviet Union taught the Japanese a lesson with aircraft artillery, and the damage of nearly 100,000 elites was enough for the Japanese to dispel this idea, so the only way for them to seize resources was to go south, so I concluded that it would not be long before Southeast Asia would become the next battlefield for the Japanese army, and where we invested was just a bamboo basket to draw water! Chen Feng said in a deep voice.

"General Chen is so sure that the Japanese will invade Southeast Asia? You must know that Southeast Asia is a colony of the United States, Britain, France, the Netherlands, and other countries, and the Japanese invasion of Southeast Asia will inevitably be resisted by these countries. Li Siguang asked in disbelief.

"I may not dare to do it now, but the changes in the situation in the world will give the Japanese such an opportunity. The reason why I chose to go to the Soviet Union to look for oil was because the Soviet Union was a big country with a huge land area, and even if anything happened to it, it would not endanger the oil fields. Secondly, the relationship between the Soviet Union and us is very good, and if it were not for the support of the Soviets in recent years, we would not have been able to support ourselves until now. The most important thing is that my people have found evidence of existence in a region of the Soviet Union, and what you have to do is to make sure that there is no oil produced there. Chen Feng said in surprise.

"General Chen, what you said is true?" Li Siguang asked in surprise.

"Of course it's true!" As he spoke, Chen Feng took out a map from his desk and said: "This is the West Siberian Basin of the Soviet Union, this is the Central Ob River Basin, and my people have found some evidence of existence here, so I need Mr. Zhong Gong to help me go here to find oil fields." ”

"General Chen, I have been to the Soviet Union and have a certain understanding of the topography and geological structure of the Soviet Union, and the sedimentary cover in the central tectonic area of the West Siberian Basin is mainly Jurassic, Baiji and Upper and Lower Tertiary. The total sedimentary thickness should be more than 3,000 meters, and the local structure has a large bending uplift. The dip of the tectonic flank is several degrees, which slows upward, indicating the control of the basement over sedimentation and tectonics, and the presence of oil is indeed very likely according to the morphology of the geological formation. That being the case, I'm going to take my students on a trip! Li Siguang analyzed.

"Then please, I hope Mr. Zhonggong will win!" Chen Feng said with a smile.

Chen Feng was very happy in his heart, as long as Li Siguang was willing to go to the Soviet Union, then the matter of the Tyumen oil field would be solved. As far as Chen Feng knows, the Central Hubei River Basin is actually an oil area, the second largest super oil and gas bearing area in the world after the Middle East. The prospective oil reserves of the entire oil field reach 40 billion tons, and the recoverable reserves exceed 7 billion tons. This time, Chen Feng pointed out to Li Siguang the largest of them, the Samotrolol oil field, with oil reserves of 2.85 billion tons.

In order to protect them, Chen Feng specially dispatched a 50-member translator and logistics team from the Chahar Provincial Government to assist them, and at the same time a 200-member special operations squadron from the special combat team accompanied them.

In addition, Chen Feng also sent a telegram to a bearded man in the Soviet Union, hoping that he could send someone to protect the safety of this oil exploration team and provide them with necessary assistance, such as airplanes, airports, and logistical support!

Stalin agreed very happily to these little things, of course, this bearded man is still quite good at business, and he even took this opportunity to hope to become the general agent of streptomycin drugs in Eastern Europe.

Stalin didn't say that Chen Feng almost forgot that his little wife had been to the United States for more than 4 months, and it stands to reason that the drug streptomycin had been produced, and he had never paid attention to it. It seems that it should work well, otherwise it would not have attracted the attention of the Soviet side.

Chen Feng knew that he should not have a bad relationship with the Soviets now, so he happily agreed, of course, the margin could not be less. Moreover, the Soviet Union had to represent the whole of Eastern Europe, including Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro, Macedonia, Albania and other countries, so the cost of representation was as high as $1 billion. Chen Feng also knew that the Soviet Union did not have so much cash, so he agreed that the Soviet Union would repay it with industrial products and raw materials.

After solving these things, Chen Feng specially sent a telegram to Yan Changxi in the United States, asking about the current situation of his little wife.

After receiving Chen Feng's telegram, Yan Changxi was quite happy in her heart, and she knew that Chen Feng must be very busy, just like when she was in Saibei. Although he is in the United States, Yan Changxi has always been concerned about the development of the domestic situation, and some time ago he heard that the Eighth War Zone had launched a major war with the Japanese army again, and his enemy had personally gone to the front line to command the operation, Yan Changxi really pinched a cold sweat in his heart. In the end, Hu Yi told her that Chen Feng did not go to the forefront, but commanded the battle in Xilinhot, so that she should not worry too much.

Yan Changxi only had one feeling during her time in the United States, that is, she was busy, she was too busy. Although the six subsidiaries of Great China Group have been established and have also recruited their own professional managers, there are still many things that Yan Changxi needs to deal with personally.

What's more important is that those naval officers and soldiers who are trained in the United States, all their affairs are reported directly to Yan Changxi, and she needs to handle them personally, and others can't interfere at all.

A month ago, Huaxia Biopharmaceutical's flagship product passed the clinical test of the relevant departments in the United States, confirming that this drug is the second antibiotic produced and used in clinical trials after penicillin. It has a special therapeutic effect on Mycobacterium tuberculosis and can effectively treat tuberculosis.

In the clinical trial of the National Academy of Medicine of the United States, 100 tuberculosis patients recovered quickly after taking the streptomycin drug produced by Huaxia Biopharmaceutical Company, and the other 11 patients quickly recovered and fully recovered after a few months, only 1 patient had a toxic reaction after taking the streptomycin drug, and the patient had numbness, dizziness, deafness, perioral numbness, motor disorders, fatigue, and vomiting after 5 days of medication, and this phenomenon was automatically eliminated after stopping the drug.

The results of clinical trials were very good, and the U.S. government quickly identified streptomycin as a specific drug for the treatment of tuberculosis, and urged Huaxia Biopharmaceutical Company to quickly mass produce streptomycin drugs. (To be continued......)
