By 1936, the United States had emerged from the Great Depression.

The most critical point of the so-called Roosevelt's New Deal is that he passed a decree in 1934 that the Federal Reserve confiscated gold from ordinary people at $20.67 an ounce, prohibiting private ownership of gold, and prohibiting gold exports. In this way, the gold standard will be abolished, and the Federal Reserve will be able to print a large amount of money and release water! It is precisely because of the massive printing of money that the US dollar has depreciated by 40 percent that the United States has been able to get out of its predicament.

This way out of the economic crisis has been used by Americans many times and is still being used in the 21st century. Every time you encounter national difficulties, you will desperately print money, anyway, the dollar is the world currency, and there is a lot of money printed, and there are still big injustices.

1936 was the last year of the "Golden Decade" of the Republic of China. In this decade, the GDP growth rate is more than 8%, and the light industry has developed rapidly, but the development of heavy industry has been very slow.

What is light industry? It is an industry that is closely related to the lives of ordinary people, mainly providing consumer goods.

Heavy industry belongs to basic industries, such as steel, metallurgy, machinery, energy, etc.

Heavy industry is the basis of a country's war capability, and China is too far behind Japan in this regard.

So, why didn't the Jinling government vigorously develop heavy industry?

There are many reasons for this, one of which is that the government has a group of comprador bourgeoisie, who make money from import and export business, and do not want China to have a complete industrial system, so they are unwilling to pass corresponding laws and regulations to encourage and stimulate heavy industry.

For example, Qian Xuequ returned to China in 1939 and wanted to produce aircraft engines in China, but he was born in troubled times, there was no way to serve the country, and the funds for building aircraft were embezzled and extorted by officials, so he could only return to the United States in 1944.

The national defense industry of the Republic of China was destroyed by compradors, large and small.

For example, in 1925, the Hanyang Arsenal purchased 200,000 walnut wood butt blanks from foreign companies, and its annual output of rifles did not exceed 20,000! In other words, it bought 10 years of rifle butts at once.

For another example, the steel used in the Ishii Arsenal is only according to the instructions of the foreign company, which one needs to be bought, and if it cannot be bought, the machine has to stop rotating. In the end, even the fuse of the grenade was purchased from the British, and the factory could not make it.

The comprador class and the warlords everywhere are counting on buying firearms from foreign companies and then eating fat kickbacks! Why do you think the defense industry is developing?

From this point of view, the Qingbai Party is not intolerable!

Take the Dukou Iron and Steel Plant established by Qin Di as an example, because of the introduction of blast furnaces from the United States, the quality of steel produced is reliable, but most of it is supplied to private enterprises in various places, and it is not procured by the Jinling government, because it is easier to purchase from foreign banks.

This is also Qin Di's wealth and wealth, in order to support the ferry steel plant, if it is a different family, I am afraid that he will give up long ago.

To be honest, Qin Di has always wanted to establish an arms factory, but he has not been able to do so.

In terms of funds alone, he could have taken over a certain arsenal in China, but the state policy did not allow it.

Beginning in 1932, the Jinling government integrated the manufacture of guns and cannons, and the national arsenals were under unified management, and private individuals were not allowed to interfere, so as not to lose firearms, which was not conducive to the plan of suppressing bandits.

Qin Di remembered that in major banks, he still had 200 million US dollars in cash, and he couldn't lie in the bank all the time, so he racked his brains and pondered for a long time, and decided to inject 50 million US dollars into the "pandaconsultinggroup", so that old John could look for investment opportunities, especially two companies, one is IBM and the other is Disney.

Founded in 1911, IBM began to produce punch card machines for employee attendance, and from 1932 to 1932, it evolved into a computer system in 1950.

At this time, it was 1936, IBM monopolized 85% of the card counting machine, which is a very small industry, limited capital capacity, so IBM is still a small company, according to Qin Di's estimate, as long as 2 million US dollars to buy IBM shares from the market, you can grab 20% of the shares.

Disney was founded in 1923, launched Mickey Mouse in 1928, and then launched Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which attracted widespread attention, so its market value is relatively high.

In any case, Qin Di only asked for a maximum of 20% of the shares, and did not seek to have a strong controlling stake in these companies.

Since that year, the company "Panda Consulting" managed by John Sr. has gradually evolved into an investment fund, with 15-20% stakes in a number of "small and medium-sized" enterprises.

On August 1, 1936, the 11th Olympic Summer Games were held in Berlin.

The Olympics were strongly supported by Hitler to demonstrate the "superiority of the Aryan race".

As in history, most Chinese athletes did not make it to the final, but Du Rong threw an astonishing 25m in the shot put and Duran broke the world record in the javelin. They won two gold medals for the Chinese delegation, and the news came back, causing the people to cheer!

"Unprecedented! This is the pride of the Chinese nation!"

"This is the pride of Chinese women! Men are all waste! I went to so many people, and I didn't even make it to the finals!"

"Sister Du is a well-deserved national hero! The state should treat them well!"

"I didn't expect that the Chinese could also win the championship, could it be that the sun came out of the west?"

"I heard that the two Du girls are still unmarried, and I am ready to pursue them......"

Mr. Qing was overjoyed when he saw the briefing, and announced the promotion of the two girls to the rank of major, and gave them the "Order of the Blue Sky and White Sun", each with a reward of 100,000 legal currency!

Mrs. Qing personally went to the pier to welcome the delegation back to China and took a group photo with the Du family sisters.

The newspapers overwhelmingly introduced the lives of the Du family sisters, saying that they have worked hard since childhood, insisted on training, practiced three nines in winter and three dogs in summer, and have been practicing for 20 years to achieve today's achievements.

There are many articles mentioning the hero Du Xinwu, saying that the two girls have a family history, and the famous teacher is a high apprentice, which is amiable and respectable!

There are also articles with bad intentions, while praising the heroine, I can't help but step on Qin Di's feet: "Sister of the Du family, a heroine among women, in order to raise training funds, was hired by the wealthy Qin family, and endured Qin Dashao's verbal humiliation. Someone once heard that Qin Dashao scolded Du Rong, saying that she was ugly and weird! This is the destruction of heroines, and it is unbearable!"

Qin Di glared at the newspaper and thought, "Isn't this nonsense? When did I scold my apprentice?"

There are also shameless tabloids spreading rumors: "Qin Dashao is a hungry ghost in the sex, but unfortunately he has more than enough heart and not enough strength." Otherwise, he would have occupied the Du family girl a long time ago!"

Qin Di saw it, and shook his head vigorously: "What kind of person, dare to make rumors about me like this, I have to clean them up when I go back." ”

In the 1936 Olympics, South Korean athlete Son Ki-jeong won the marathon, but he could only accept the prize as a Japanese because both Korea and Korea were occupied by the Japanese. At the award ceremony, the sun flag was raised and the national anthem of "Jun's Generation" was played, which made him feel very painful.

There is no way, the people of the country can only endure humiliation. Maybe he shouldn't have been there at all!

If China loses the 14-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, it will face the same situation.

This Olympic Games, which was also the first Olympics to be televised, won the 100 meters, 200 meters, 100 meters relay, plus the long jump, a total of 4 gold medals, with outstanding results, in front of countless people around the world, shattered Hitler's "theory of the superiority of the Aryan race".

Before the vigorous World War II, Chinese female athletes won two Olympic gold medals, which greatly boosted the morale of the nation and virtually improved the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army.

Qin Di thought to himself: "In order to support the Anti-Japanese War, I have done my best! Not only did the disciple win the gold medal, but also the album "Serving the Country with Loyalty"...... The only regret is that I can't go to the battlefield in person because of the constraints of heaven......"
