With the heavy water sample presented by Li Fuji, Yang Qiu did not immediately return to Beijing, but returned to Chongqing to hold a national science and technology mobilization meeting with Qiu Heng, the general director of the 3010 plan, personally met with tens of thousands of technicians and scientists gathered in Bashu, and arranged for them to go to various experimental centers and factories, racing against time to seize all the time.

You must know that the 3010 plan is completely different from the previous Rhineland, battleships and other scientific and technological plans, including nuclear energy and computers and many other high-secret projects have completely abandoned foreign experts, in the words of Yang Qiu at the conference, this is the first time since the establishment of the Republic of China really "self-reliance", can you get rid of foreign technology crutches in this move!

It's not that he doesn't want to borrow advanced foreign technology, but that some projects really can't be exposed. But there is also a great risk in doing so, because science and technology are not weapons and equipment. As long as the existence of the data machine ensures that the manufacturing capacity, materials and metallurgical conditions are met, it can create world-leading equipment, and even the design cost can be saved a lot. But scientific and technological breakthroughs require years of accumulation, and when to break through is very fortuitous, maybe five years later, nuclear bombs are flying all over the sky, or maybe the Manhattan explosion in the United States itself did not pass that hurdle.

This may happen because the 3010 program is actually more difficult than the two bombs and one satellite of the republic in the parallel world, and many technologies are currently completely blank, like the heavy water that has just arrived, and the nuclear fission equation and so on. Even if heavy water has been successful, there is still a long way to go from discovery to laboratory refining to industrialization. But in any case, as the world's largest scientific program, the 3010 program can be said to gather all the technical forces that the country can come up with, including nuclear energy, agriculture, computers, aerospace, and electronics, metallurgy, engines, stress, and other fields in which private enterprises participate in the national talent and financial guarantee.

More importantly, the 3010 plan seems to be just a scientific and technological breakthrough, but the potential business value is huge. For example, Shanghai Global Electronics Co., Ltd., invested by Lu Bicheng, is responsible for metal electron tube technology. This technology was discovered by Yang Qiu from the radar drawings of the Soviet MiG-25 fighter in the data machine, which is known to be due to the fact that the Soviet Union did not believe in transistors. Therefore, it specializes in electron tubes, and the MiG-25 radar uses this kind of metal tube, which has much higher heat dissipation efficiency and stability than the current electron tubes, and is not technically outrageous.

Once completed, this new metal tube is bound to have a powerful impact on the world's tube technology, and according to the technician's calculations, the success will be tens of millions of dollars in commercial revenue. As for Lenovo's transistor technology, it is the cornerstone of future electronic technology. Profits are likely to be in the billions of dollars! Therefore, the 3010 plan is also an important supplementary plan to promote economic development.

At the same time as the 3010 plan began, another big plan for the country's future energy and strategy was finally unveiled.

In 1931, the Western New Year was in a depression, but the deep economic crisis and turmoil caused countries around the world to abandon the celebrations. The U.S. economy is finally picking up, but bankruptcies and closures are still ringing from time to time. In the harsh winter of Europe, countless people wrapped in torn cotton jackets stood guard at the door of the almshouse. Only the Soviet Union, taking advantage of the economic crisis and the opportunity of various countries to cash out, ushered in the best period after the founding of the state. Stalin's bold pursuit of industrialization is still hot.

In Asia, Japan suffered the worst snowstorm on record, and the economic downturn and severe cold left millions of people homeless, so the Japanese government had to once again resort to the migration trick and increase the number of immigrants to New Guinea, but the noose, which was leased until 1940, made the Japanese top brass constantly worry that Britain and Australia would take back New Guinea, and the atmosphere of anxiety intensified.

Northern China was similarly snowy, and natural disasters from the beginning of 1930 continued to rage. But in the midst of the disaster, hopes and dreams are getting hotter and hotter. After Yang Qiu's visit, a large number of American technicians and engineers crossed the ocean to the Far East, and their presence began to appear in factories, laboratories, universities, power stations, water conservancy projects, and other projects. Even the well-known established industrial groups have taken the opportunity to absorb personnel, eliminate a large number of low-value projects, and upgrade machinery and equipment.

After entering the 30s, the pace of the world slowed down a lot due to the crisis, which also gave China and the Soviet Union a good opportunity to catch up, and take this opportunity for all countries to start trying to adjust.

However, at this time, there was a place where there was a thunderous roar. The streets of Riyadh became a sea of joy. The castle of Masmak is full of laughter. Everyone knows at this moment that a new nation is about to enter the world family.

Even if an agreement had long been reached to recognize the Saud family's dominion over Najd and the Hejaz. The British are still a little surprised by the speed of Saudi statehood. Of course, Downing Street did not want to see Saudi independence, but with Iraq and Persia getting rid of their colonial status, Saudi Arabia could no longer contain the establishment of the country, so it simply turned a blind eye and sent Roger John, commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, to attend the ceremony.

Looking at the smiling Ibn Saud and the family members, the representatives and guests of the invited countries were surprised, what was the hole card that made the Ibn Saud family dare to set aside the influence of Britain and France and establish an independent state? You must know that Iraq was able to establish a state because of Britain behind it, and there was also the need for Britain to deliberately split Turkey after the European war, and Persia became independent because Britain did not want the Soviet Union to go south, and did not want to take action by itself, so it used Persia as a buffer, so who is standing behind Saudi Arabia?

Roger John knew that this country was certainly not Britain and France, and as an excellent naval officer who had participated in the European War, he did not want the former colonies to become independent one by one.

Could it be the Americans?

Seeing U.S. Secretary of State Stimson who was smiling and attending the ceremony, Roger Johnson subconsciously walked to him: "Mr. Secretary of State." ”

"John, it's a pleasure to meet you. You look good, it seems that the Mediterranean Fleet is a comfortable job. Stimson had dealings with many foreign generals and knew Roger John when he was Secretary of the U.S. Army, so he was very enthusiastic after meeting him, and immediately grabbed him to talk.

But Roger John was absent-minded, because he thought that there could be no second country besides the United States, so he glanced around and asked, "Is this President Hoover's suggestion?" ”

Hearing what he said and wanted to find out who was supporting the independent establishment of the Saudi family, Stimson was amused. Originally, the United States and Yang Qiu still had a secret agreement, and they would not solve the mystery too soon, but tomorrow is the date when the Saudi family officially announced the founding of the country, so there is nothing to hide, so he simply picked out: "John, didn't you notice that there were still people who were not present?" ”

Roger John is a typical military man who doesn't like intrigue politics very much, but after all, he is the commander of the Mediterranean of the British Empire, and at least he still has political sensitivity. Looking around and finding that the Chinese delegation had not yet arrived, his face suddenly sank: "Is it Chinese?" ”

Stimson was not surprised that Yang Qiu supported Saudi independence, the oil here is what China needs most, and Yang Qiu has always wanted to open up the Persian Gulf channel, otherwise he would not have sent troops to Afghanistan after the British suggested it. Especially when he fell short in the end, he urgently needed to ensure the safety of the oil channel. Said: "Who does it matter?" The national independence movement has spread to the world, and unless someone is willing to continue the endless war, there is no way to stop such a trend. ”

"Then why didn't your country allow Luzon to become independent?" Roger John was very upset and sneered at him.

Stimson laughed: "John, your news is outdated. The Senate is debating independence for the Philippines, and neither President Hoover nor the Democrats want to remain involved in a possible conflict. ”

"You want to make the Philippines independent?!" Roger John's eyes widened, he never expected to ask such a big news! As a navy, he knows too well the importance of Luzon, such a strategic place that Britain wanted to take for a long time but did not get, and the United States actually chose to give it up on its own initiative?!

"It's already being discussed, maybe next year, maybe a few more years. But the American people can't wait to get rid of those non-essential overseas interests, you know, and they're now in the upper hand. ”

Roger John knew who Stimson said they were, and the failure of the Paris Peace Conference completely angered the United States, leading to the post-war isolationism that even the most ordinary Americans no longer wanted a chicken-and-egg situation. What's more, the United States is still facing so much economic pressure that it is even less likely to interfere in external affairs. He also has nothing to say about this situation, because it was the British government that was aggressive at the Paris Peace Conference that made the United States return to the mainland and was unwilling to intervene, and because of this mistake, the contradictions between Britain and the United States deepened and the United States accelerated its move closer to China.

"But." Before Roger John's words were finished, Stimson stopped him and pointed to the door: "The Chinese are here." ”

In the sound of the reminder, Gu Weijun, Song Ziqing, Bei Zuyi and Ma Kui walked into the banquet hall. A foreign minister, a defense minister, a central bank governor and a world oil tycoon can attract enough attention wherever they go. Especially Yang Qiu's crazy money-throwing actions in Europe and the United States before had already earned enough eyeballs, so when the four of them appeared, they immediately caused a small commotion, and the flashing lights were even brighter.

Seeing the four of them, Ibn Saud personally stepped forward to greet them, which made Roger John's face darker. However, Stimson watched the corners of his mouth slowly hook: "If Britain knew that China would sign a huge loan agreement with Saudi Arabia and sign an oil agreement, what would it be?" Go to war? Hehe, this has nothing to do with the United States. ”

When Sting had a bad thought, Song Ziqing had already bowed to Ibn Saud and said: "Your Majesty, Honorable King, on behalf of our President and Government, I would like to express my heartfelt congratulations to you, and hope that the friendship between our two countries will last forever and be good for generations to come. ”

After speaking, he took out a thick document in front of everyone: "This is a bill for the League of Nations drafted by our President himself, and he assures you that every effort will be made to urge governments to recognize the independent status of the Kingdom, and this draft will also be formally submitted to the League of Nations for review tomorrow by our special envoy." ”
