In other words, this industry is too important for a country, because it directly determines the country's economic level and technological level.

It is not much to say that industry determines the level of the economy, it can provide a large number of employment opportunities for the people, so that the overall living standards of the people and the quality of the people are improved, and these will in turn further promote the development of industry, so that the industry because of the high quality of talent and continuous innovation and efficiency, so it is obviously a virtuous circle.

It is also obvious that when our country did not have an industrial base, the Yankees did not even sell us 20 "Black Hawk" helicopters and provide all kinds of spare parts without reservation...... We don't have that industrial foundation, and no matter how we dismantle it, we can't imitate this high-tech thing.

But if it is different in modern times, the Soviet Union will sell us any fighter planes, such as the Su-27 and Su-30, and it will not take long for China to have a copy version, so the United States has also canceled its aircraft carrier's visit to China, because it is worried that Chinese will be able to learn what advanced technology they have with just a glance...... This is the charm of industry, when the industry reaches a certain scale, the development of a period of time will be in the competition from the quantitative change to the qualitative change, from the scale to the direction of technology development, when the industrial technology reaches a certain level, even only need to know the requirements of a certain equipment to meet the ability to produce it. This is also the reason why various high-tech equipment in modern China, such as China Aegis, J-20, and J-31, appeared in front of the Chinese people like dumplings in such a short period of time. To use a very vivid word to describe this phenomenon is a "blowout" development.

So from this point of view, other countries always criticize China as a "copycat" power. Actually, I don't think it's a shame. Instead, it should be a kind of pride. Because the industry has developed to a certain stage, there will be such a stage as "cottage". The United States also copied the technology of Germany, the Soviet Union and other countries, and Japan mainly copied the technology of the United States, Germany, and France.

The word "cottage" is hard to hear, it is the opposite of imitation, it is the opposite of innovation, it is actually a kind of learning, learning the technology of other countries and innovating in accordance with their own requirements and ideas in this technology, that is, "standing on the shoulders of giants" to absorb other people's technology, if India does not pay attention to the basic industry and develop the software industry, the country wants to copycat, and other countries are willing to provide technology to make him cottage and not to copycat!

So, there is no one in this world who is particularly smart and no one is particularly stupid. The reason why the United States has been able to develop to such a high level and its military science and technology is so developed is, in the final analysis, because of industry.

However, in modern times, for the first time in history, the title of the United States as the world's first industrial leader has been greatly surpassed by China, and it is conceivable that with the passage of time, with the further change of quantity to quality, China will usher in the day when China will surpass the United States in science and technology and innovation in the near future.

The United States, which itself started as an industrialist, is well aware of this, so in modern times, the United States emphasizes the return of industry internally and returns to the Asia-Pacific region to contain China, and at the same time comes up with a "high-level" excuse...... Environmental protection. Energy conservation and emission reduction for the benefit of all mankind.

So the problem of smog was raised...... Of course, this is not to say that the author supports environmental pollution, but to say that everyone on this earth has the same right to survive and the right to pursue a better life. Think about it from this perspective. The United States and other developed countries in the West have caused large-scale pollution to the earth during industrialization in the past 200 years, and now the basic industry has developed to a certain extent after the pollution has been greatly reduced, but at this time the issue of environmental pollution has been raised, and its per capita emission indicators are still several times that of developing countries, and the IPCC has also been continuously exposed to the number of false credibility has dropped to zero.

All of these things have to make one suspect that its real purpose is to restrict China's industrial development under a high-sounding pretext in order to maintain its hegemony.

Of course, this qiē is far away from me, at least for me at this time.

On the helicopter back to base, my mind was full of fragments of the present and the past, and sometimes I had some confusion, that is, I couldn't figure out what was the past and what was the future, because the future of history is the past for me, and the past of history is the present for me.

But when I sorted out all these qiē, the road to a big country became clear.

In just a few decades, a country that is poor and white, and even has imperfect basic industries, has been able to develop into a major country of international importance...... I could hardly believe that it was possible to "cross the river by feeling the stones", but it really happened.

Perhaps, people in this era still dare not believe this, but I have no doubts.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at the soldiers who were sleeping soundly on their chairs with guns in their hands...... Along the way, how many Chinese like them have paid in obscurity with their efforts and sweat, as well as blood and lives. And many of them even can't imagine and can't see the moment when the motherland will develop strongly.

At this time, a strange thought appeared in my mind: If they could go to modern times to see and know the development of the motherland with their efforts, I think they would also be very gratified.

However, I think there is one person who can wait until that moment, and that is the old man.

But it soon occurred to me that it was not accurate to say that it was "seen", that the old man could not see anything the moment he came down from the wounded battlefield.

At this time, I suddenly understood, no wonder the old man always liked to listen to me talk about the various changes in modern times, and always liked to hear me talk about how good the school is now...... He is actually proud of himself, his comrades-in-arms who have brought such a good life to the world, and he is also proud that his motherland can develop so rapidly.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be in awe of the old man.

It's a very strange feeling, and I just thought he was annoying, boring...... But now, I really feel the heart of gold.

Before I knew it, two tears had fallen from my cheeks: I didn't know how the old man was now, and I didn't know if I could see him again.

Or, if I can return to that world one day, will the old man be able to wait until that moment?!

If I could, I would like to say to him: "I'm sorry, old man, I was wrong!" I was really wrong! (To be continued......)
