= Below is the main text.

"The main thing is that there is no money."

Song Ziwen said of course that if the navy wants to buy big ships, then the army also proposes a million-strong army and an armored army. The government wants social reform, investment in infrastructure construction, and the development of education, medical and health care, and it has to ask for money in all aspects, and there is really no money to realize the big fleet plan.

Besides, the world's navies are "on vacation", and countries are vigorously reducing their navies, buying one or two old ships to fill the façade, and training their troops is almost the same.

"Now that the army has too many people, I am ready to reduce military spending." Song Ziwen shook his head, thinking that the most important thing now is to develop the economy and fill the stomachs of the people, otherwise there will be a rebellion below, and the situation that was finally achieved will be ruined.

"You're right to think so, and I support you. However, you also have to give someone a thought. Situ Nan said with a smile.

"You mean?" Song Ziwen seemed to have thought of something. Well, it's not easy for him to be a family member.

"Sooner or later, the navy will be revived, and now we are developing the steel and shipbuilding industries in order to prepare for the construction of ships in the future. In this way, you promise the navy to build a battleship in Zhanjiang Port, and when we have the ability to build ships, we will continue to build more battleships, so as to stop their mouths.

In terms of technology, you can find the Germans, and you can see that Krupp moved all the shipyards to New Tangshan, and you will know that the Germans are holding back a lot of energy, and they will agree. ”

South Szeto Road.

The Germans are natural "allies", they have no technology but are being squeezed everywhere, and the rapid development of the South China and Chinese markets has given the German industrial giants a godsend, and the cooperation between the two sides should be more sincere.

"Okay"

Song Ziwen nodded briskly.

I calculated in my heart that the port of Zhanjiang had just been recovered from the French, the shipbuilding industry was almost blank, and it would take at least several years to build a battleship from scratch, and in a few years, the situation in China would be very different.

The river is surging and flows eastward. On the nearby Turtle Mountain and Snake Mountain, the fort is condescending, and the Yangtze River is locked at any time.

Foreign ships are almost invisible, there are more and more merchant ships, and the fly in the ointment is that the river separates the north and the south, which is not conducive to cross-strait exchanges, and the Guangdong-Hankou railway stops when it reaches Wuchang, and Zineng faces the Beijing-Hankou railway across the river from Hankou.

"A bridge flies north and south, and the moat becomes a thoroughfare. You can't always rely on ferries, right? ”

On the ferry boat back from Hankou, Situ Nan couldn't help but complain to Song Ziwen.

"Yangtze River Bridge? I want to too."

Song Ziwen spread his hands helplessly, someone proposed to build the Yangtze River Bridge in Xinhai that year, and now some people have mentioned it again, but Song Ziwen plans to see how it is in a few years.

"What are the difficulties?"

Situ Nan asked.

"The cost is about more than 100 million, and now the government can't come up with this money. There is no such technology in the country either. ”

Song Ziwen explained, looking at Situ Nan, seeing that Situ Nan was a little moved, he smiled and teased, "Why don't you try?" ”

"Me?"

The importance of the Yangtze River Bridge is self-evident, Situ Nan was slightly stunned, he just said it casually, but he didn't expect Song Ziwen to push the problem to himself.

San Francisco, USA, is preparing to build the Golden Gate Bridge, a sea-crossing bridge, and the Bethlehem Company is actively promoting this matter.

In addition, European countries such as Britain and France have the ability to build bridges over the Yangtze River more than 100 years ago, so it should be no problem to cross this short Yangtze River technically.

Situ Nan also knew that the construction of the Kinmen Bridge was very smooth, and the hundreds of thousands of tons of steel purchased from the Bethlehem Company were still alive after a hundred years, and in the future, China will not build ten or eight Yangtze River bridges on the Yangtze River.

This matter is not big, but it is not small, at least for Situ Nan, but for Song Ziwen and them, the matter is even more troublesome, and it may drag on for ten or eight years.

Let's set an example for China's bridge industry

Situ Nan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "It's okay to build bridges, but it has to pay off."

"Of course. As long as it's not outrageous, it's more important than anything else. ”

As soon as Song Ziwen agreed, he knew that Situ Nan would agree. Heart: The boss is like this, he is a little lazy, and he rarely asks about specific things, but if you ask him to make a move, he will probably not refuse. What's more, as soon as he opens Chrysostom, foreign resources will be tilted towards the country, and things will become simpler.

The Yangtze River Bridge finally fell on the US-China Railway Company, which owns shares in important domestic railways such as the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway and the Guangdong-Guizhou Railway, and also invests in expressways.

Under the order of the big boss, the US-China Railway Company had no choice but to undertake this project with a large investment, slow results, and not too good investment efficiency.

Just do it, after Song Ziwen went back, he set up the Yangtze River Bridge Construction Committee the next day, and he served as the chairman, but in fact he was an empty commander.

Situ Nan sent a telegram to Los Angeles, entrusting William University to visit China in a hurry for American bridge experts.

As soon as Professor Mao Yisheng got out of class, the secretary of the president's office informed him that the president was looking for him.

A few years ago, after Mao Yisheng obtained a doctorate in engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, he received an invitation from William University to become the youngest professor in the School of Engineering of William University, this hardworking and intelligent Chinese is already very famous in the American architectural engineering community.

The reason why I accepted the appointment of William University is mainly because I have been receiving funding from the William Foundation, and at the same time, William University has a large number of Chinese students, a friendly atmosphere, academic zìyóu, and this famous university is very generous.

Mao Yisheng walked into the principal's office and greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Stratton."

"Mao. I have good news for you, the itinerary has changed, I will not go to Nanhua for academic purposes for the time being, and you will go back to your home country. ”

Stratton laughed, feeling a little reluctant, letting go of a talented professor would be a big loss for William.

"What?"

Mao Yisheng's heart jumped, Wuhan established a new government, the government wanted to develop industry, the news of the overhaul of the railroad reached the United States, and these reports were often seen in Chinese newspapers in California, so that many Chinese students saw the hope of rejuvenation, and returned to China after completing their studies.

Mao Yisheng is no exception, after preparing to complete his academic visit to South China, he returned to China to take a look, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly, he was really overjoyed.

"The news came from the William Foundation that the Chinese government was preparing to build the Yangtze River Bridge, and they wanted foreign technical assistance. William University was one of the invitees, and I would recommend you to lead a geological expedition. ”

Stratton explained, looking at Mao Yisheng with complicated eyes, and said in his heart: This bird will not come back as soon as it flies.

"Too ...... All right. I'll leave right away. Mao Yisheng's face turned red with excitement, and he couldn't wait to fly back to the haunting land immediately.

"Hmm. You calm down first. Stratton waved his hand to calm him down, and said, "In addition to the bridge, there may be railway engineering, urban planning and other projects over there, and you have to prepare more manpower...... Do a good job, and you will be famous all over the world. ”

Stratton didn't forget to encourage him in the end, and he couldn't bear to beat Situ Nan in his heart. The civil engineering department alone "lost" half of its professors and a large number of outstanding graduates, and those guys either went to South China or China.

Given the rapid development of engineering and construction technology in the United States, not every expert has the opportunity to lead the Chicago department store or the Empire State Building project in Manhattan, and they are equally eager to show their skills.

South China and China just provided such a stage, and as soon as they hooked up, American professors and experts were tempted to go to the East to realize their own value.

Again, for ambitious young people, there's nothing more tempting than "putting it all in." They crave opportunities.

Coming out of the principal's office, Mao Yisheng's heart was hot.

There are other talents from all walks of life who have returned to China with him, and the heat wave of "going to South China" two years ago has now become "going home" and sweeping the world.

……

"Mao Yisheng?"

Situ Nan casually sent a telegram from the United States on his desk, and accidentally saw the name Mao Yisheng, and seemed to have a little impression of this name in his memory, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered who Mao Yisheng was, so he smiled.

Mao Yisheng is certainly good, but China is not only a Mao Yisheng, the most important thing is to let these Mao Yisheng show their talents.

"What makes you so happy? I didn't respond to my call to dinner just now."

He Xiangu came in with a smile, just finished breastfeeding her daughter, with a motherly and gentle smile on her face.

"For the sake of the bridge. The experts on the American side contacted me, but I didn't expect that the leader of the team was actually a Chinese, and I was happy. ”

Situ Nan smiled slightly, and was reminded by He Xiangu, only to realize that he was hungry, so he went out to eat.

"That's great."

He Xiangu nodded, and said with some joy, "Wuhan is just too many rivers, and a few more bridges need to be built to make it easier to enter and exit." ”

"That's right."

Situ Nan glanced at He Xiangu appreciatively, and in the blink of an eye, the helpless little girl at the beginning has now become mature, well, her vision is not bad.

……

Mao Yisheng almost couldn't believe what he saw in front of him, the streets of Wuchang were bustling with people, people's waists were straight, and there was less "inferiority" in the eyes of foreigners.

Getting off the boat, I saw a lot of construction sites along the way, and the whole city was in an orderly "chaos".

"I knew you were coming back, so I came to pick you up." In the car, Luo Zhongchen affectionately held Mao Yisheng's hand.

He was the president of Tangshan Jiaotong University and is now the president of Wuhan Jiaotong University and the director of the Railway Planning and Development Department of the Ministry of Communications.

"Thank you, teacher. I really didn't expect the domestic changes to be so big, the Wuhan government seems to really want to do something, and even a high-ranking person like you, teacher, has become an official. ”

Mao Yisheng said with emotion.

Tangshan Jiaotong University, formerly known as Tangshan Road Mining School, has a history of almost 30 years, and was founded in order to cultivate talents in China's railway industry, making great contributions to China's railway industry.

Important railways such as Shanhaiguan and Jinpu Line embody the painstaking efforts of teachers and students of this railway school.

After the Republic of China, especially in the areas ruled by the Beiyang government, the railway industry almost came to a standstill, which was disappointing, on the contrary, the southern government's vigorous development of the railway industry made Luo Zhongchen and a large number of railway engineering talents rejoice, and it is not difficult to understand that they have gone south.

"That's right. However, I was not a politician in the newspapers, a technocrat in the fashionable phrase. As long as I can contribute to the development of China's transportation, I don't care whether the government in the south or the north cares. That's probably what you think."

Luo Zhongchen said chicly.

Mao Yisheng nodded.

China lacks engineering talents, and Mao Yisheng's return makes him excited, and the two masters and apprentices have endless words for a while. The next day, the master and apprentice went to the Yangtze River to inspect the site of the bridge. t
