As Rutherford said, the strike didn't last long.

Originally, because of the unfair treatment of coal miners, workers in other occupations across the United Kingdom, under the guidance of the trade union federation, staged a sympathetic strike in solidarity with the coal miners.

Whether the strike succeeds or fails, and whether the coal miners achieve their goals, the sympathetic strike will not last long.

Although everyone is the lowest level of workers who are oppressed by the capitalists, and they are all on strike under the guidance of the trade unions, in fact, their individual rights are not violated as greatly as the coal miners, but are constantly being silently encroached upon.

What's more, these workers are the breadwinners of the family, and most of them are young and old, and only Dirac Kapitsa Chen Muwu Dirac relies on his salary to live alone.

So as the strike lasted, more and more workers could not hold on and returned to the company or factory where they had previously worked.

The British government was happy to see this, so it did its best to protect the workers who had returned to work, and would never allow the capitalist factory owners to retaliate against them.

Then there is the organization of strikes, in which the British Trade Union Confederation, which is also influenced by the Labour Party, fears that in this strike there will really be a few active revolutionaries.

On May 12, the Confederation of British Trade Unions held its last negotiations with the British government, and although the purpose of the strike was not achieved, it declared the end of the general strike that broke out on May 4.

With a large number of workers returning to work, all sectors in the UK, especially transport and heavy industry, quickly returned to the situation they had before the strike.

Only the coal miners, whose own interests have been seriously harmed, are still fighting against the capitalist coal miners.

Their strike lasted until November of that winter, when it was declared a complete failure.

The British government's pre-strike policy has finally been implemented, with miners' wages being lowered and working hours extended.

From May to November, half a year was lost, and the strike yielded nothing.

It can't be said that there is no gain, anyway, as soon as the strike ended, the British government began to work on changing the law.

By next year, it was clearly made clear in legislation that such sympathetic strikes were illegal.

It was not until after World War II when the Labour Party returned to power that the bill banning compassionate strikes was repealed.

In the eighties and nineties, during the reign of Margaret Thatcher, the sympathy strike was finally banned.

After the First World War, Britain was in ruins.

Although Ireland has been lost, the whole of Britain is dreaming of a heavenly kingdom.

If the sympathetic strike had not been forbidden, the coal miners would strike today and the whole of Britain would have come to a halt;

Tomorrow the railway workers will strike, and the whole of Britain will shut down again;

the day after tomorrow steel mill workers;

workers at the power plant of the day after tomorrow;

……

Fuck, how did the country become like this!

In addition to legislating against sympathetic strikes, the British government and the news media have taken the opportunity to promote the emerging red state on the European continent as a danger to Britain's national security.

You have to find a reason and an excuse for the strike, don't you?

The fact that the capitalist coal mine owners squeezed the workers and led to a strike cannot be put on the surface, and then the blame can only be dumped on the Sulian people.

In any case, they also started with the workers' movement, and the act of striking is a good thing.

They must have spoiled the patriotic and law-abiding British!

The rift between Britain and Su Lian, who was afraid of being subverted, became bigger and bigger because of this general strike.

In 1927 of the next year, because of the Northern Expeditionary Army supported by Su Lian, the old warlords supported by Europe and the United States were defeated on the battlefield in the Central Plains, infringing on their interests.

Thus, in the same year that the Strike Prohibition Act was enacted, the Conservative government announced the severance of diplomatic relations between Britain and the Soviet Union – and it was MacDonald and his British government who had done the work of the two years before.

Chen Muwu's signed article in support of coal miners published in the British Workers' newspaper did not have much impact during the strike.

Because the editor-in-chief of the newspaper Workers was in London, the strike paralyzed the transport system across the UK.

In addition, Churchill used the power of the government to extract most of the newsprint.

The combination of several reasons led to the fact that not only did the Workers have a small circulation, but most of the newspapers were only circulated in the city of London and a few nearby satellite cities.

But the British Gazette, edited by Winston Churchill, was published and printed with the backing of the British government.

Not only that, but the British government requisitioned or bought a number of cars and trucks, and even a few new gadgets, in order to be able to send newspapers from London to all parts of the country with the views of the government opposing the strike.

The Workers' Daily had its largest circulation of only 700,000 copies on a single day, while the Gazette had a maximum circulation of 2 million copies in a single day.

But when the strike ended, the popularity of that article came up again.

The Times and the Daily Mail had to cut pages to survive the strikes because the printing workers were also involved in the strike, and the newsprint was requisitioned by the government.

When society gradually returned to normal conditions, Britain's newspapers, large and small, began to exert their strength, and they had accumulated too much news in these days.

Chen Muwu's article is, of course, one thing that cannot be bypassed.

The well-informed people of the Cambridge Apostolic Society, however, learned that their Chen brothers had made a big news during the strike.

Some people think that he is not authentic, and he has been hiding it when he asked him before, but he secretly submitted it behind everyone's back.

More people believe that although the strike failed, he is commending for speaking up for the coal miners.

They also learned about the suppression of the Chinese strike, and they were ashamed of their motherland and Britain.

However, with the exception of the members of the Apostolic Society, the vast majority of people at Cambridge University learned of Dr. Chan's actions during the strike by reading the article in the major London newspapers, quoting it in full, or excerpting the central idea.

Anyway, the strike has passed, and most people don't feel much about it.

Dr. Chan was still a young man, and he probably saw the strike, was moved by the situation, and thought of the situation in his hometown.

As can be seen from the length of the article, he used only a few lines of text to express his support for the striking workers.

Much of the rest is devoted to telling readers about the working-class strikes in China.

Those capitalists are worse than the local British!

Of course, the British of the concession authorities played a disgraceful role in this strike, and it was really not a gentleman's act.

There are also people who are not so calm after reading the news report.

Rutherford, the director of the Cavendish laboratory, after reading the report in The Times, felt that the tobacco in his pipe suddenly became tasteless.

Over the years, he has repeatedly emphasized that the laboratory is a sacred place, where experiments can only be done and academic research can be conducted, and there must be no idle talk about useless politics, let alone the radical red ideology.

Against all precautions, there were still some young people who were poisoned in the laboratory, but fortunately, they did not affect their studies and experiments, and Rutherford, who was still protecting his calves, had to turn a blind eye.

In contrast, Rutherford prefers Chen Muwu.

Dr. Chan never gets involved in any mess, is a humble person, and has a lot of experimental and theoretical results, and can make money for the lab.

If everyone was as worry-free as Dr. Chan, he wouldn't be smoking so much every day.

In the end, Dr. Chen, who was the most worry-free, became the one who made him the most uncomfortable in this strike.

Rutherford finally understood why he was in such a hurry to send the papers to the Royal Society in London, and asked Capitsa to drive him there.

His relationship with Kapitsa is so good, it is estimated that he has already been brainwashed by this restless Sulian!

Rutherford was very angry this time, and even wanted to have someone call Chen Muwu to his office immediately and scold him with a big face.

Anger is anger, but reason prevails over his anger.

After the end of the strike, train transport has also resumed.

The parts that had been detained were finally delivered to Cambridge, and the assembly of the motor was on track again.

The starting motor, and the particle accelerator built on it, is a powerful tool in the future experimental research of the Cavendish laboratory, and there is no room for error.

And Chen Muwu is the ultimate person in charge of this project.

Although I don't understand why he has to get involved in the strike, whether it is Cambridge University or the United Kingdom, if anyone dares to use this matter to challenge Chen Muwu, Rutherford will definitely be the first to refuse.

To put it mildly, without Chen Muwu, there may be mistakes in the manufacturing process of the starting motor.

In general, without Chen Muwu, it is still unknown whether the Cavendish Laboratory will be able to continue its glory in the future.

No matter how big things happen, he must save this good student to death.

Rutherford's fears were not unfounded.

Not to mention those in Britain who read the newspaper and thought that Chen Muwu did not know how to be grateful and smeared the British middle class, capitalists and stakeholders.

Narrowing it down to Cambridgeshire, there are also people who want to make a fuss about it.

For more than a year, the dean of Trinity College, Tom Sun, has been seeking a professorship at Cambridge University for Chen Muwu, who has graduated with a doctorate for two years.

It's just that every time he applied to the school's accreditation committee for whatever reason, he got the same result of rejection.

Naturally, the superintendent who accompanied astronomers on a visit to the Cambridge University Observatory last year, was dismissed by Chen Muwu, Lord Balfour.

The mentality of the old English of Zhengmi Ziqi made him look down on the Chinese from beginning to end.

And everyone will respect himself, the former Prime Minister, Earl and Chancellor of Cambridge University, why do you, a little Chen Muwu, dare to speak disrespectfully to yourself?

Although the mascot of Balfort has no real power, he can only sign the proposal after it has been reviewed and approved by the members of the jury, and cannot reject the proposal.

However, if he wants a proposal that does not affect the school's policies and policies to be passed, those committee members will still sell him more or less face.

It's just that being as passive as it is now, and rejecting every application for a professor from Tomson Sr. is not a solution.

Balfour felt that he had to take the initiative and kick the Chinese man out of Cambridge University in order to get rid of his bad breath once and for all.

The kind of hypocrisy peculiar to the English gentleman made him always want to find a justifiable reason.

Then Chen Muwu's article during the strike brought a big gift to Balfour.

At the next council, he must bring up this matter!

The strike is not just in the UK.

Travellers travelling in and out of the UK from other countries have also been affected.

Von Neumann, who was sent by Hilbert to Cambridge University to ask for directions, had long since left the University of Göttingen.

But his trip to the west was drowned in France for a long time.

As a result of the strike, the Channel ferries were shut down on a large scale, and only a minimum of navigation between Britain and France was maintained.

In any case, the domestic traffic in Britain is also paralyzed, and even if he queues up to board a ship to cross the channel, all that awaits him is to change places and continue to wait for the train to resume at some point.

Von Neumann simply gave himself a vacation on the shores of Calais and waited until the strike was over before he crossed the sea to England.

Chen Muwu, who didn't know that there was a guest coming soon, just as Rutherford thought, once again devoted himself to the development of the starting motor.

No one will look to his recent paper in the Bulletin of the Natural Sciences Society, and the attention of the whole of Cambridge and even the whole of Britain will be on the article he published at the same time.

Chen Muwu, as the protagonist, behaved calmly, as if he had never participated in the strike movement that had just ended.

It wasn't until he went to the assembly site in person that he finally knew what Cockcroft said about the possibility of a significant delay in the construction period.

It is true that I used a piece of silk as a conveyor belt in the model, but the reason for doing so is just because the silk is convenient to obtain.

But when used in a real hoist, why should it be enlarged exactly according to the model?

In order to get a suitable silk conveyor belt, it took months to order it to China, without looking for a substitute for silk.

So why not just start by planting mulberry and raising silkworms?

How could this Cockcroft be so brainless, as if he were a German!

Say German, German is here, a non-stoppable but intelligent German, who came from London to Cambridge.
