Chapter 1082: The Financial Crisis Erupts

One step ahead of others is a saint, and two steps ahead of others is a madman. Majifen is a special person, he is one and a half steps ahead of others. So in the eyes of the vast majority of people, Majifen is very powerful, but some of the behaviors and thoughts are very strange. I don't know if it's his luck or sadness. He could see the predicament that the Entente might face in the early stages of the war after the war began, but at the same time, he could not completely refute Benson's theory, and he always believed that it was impossible for the United States to build a navy according to the ideas of Benson and others, but he did not know what the problem was. So after a tantrum with Benson, the matter was over. With Magifin's support, Nimitz and Spruance moved into their new jobs. And in this year, the United States ushered in the most terrifying financial crisis in the history of the world! The financial crisis that broke out in the United States quickly spread to the world, and the whole of America and Europe fell into a panic!

Beginning with the continuous plunge and turmoil in the stock market and financial markets, and then rapidly spreading to the banking sector, and finally the rupture of the production chain of the production enterprises caused by capital and bad debts, all strata of the United States have been hit by such a huge change, and all kinds of stocks and bonds that were almost useless to some middle-class people have become a mess of waste paper. The middle and lower strata of society were dealt a fatal blow, with many workers losing their jobs and losing their livelihood after the savings they had deposited in the zĂ i bank could not be withdrawn, and thousands of people began to rely on the government's meager handouts or take risks.

In this financial crisis triggered by financial turmoil, the United States, Britain, France and other countries have been hit the hardest. Not only has the domestic economic order been severely disturbed, the productive forces have regressed, and even the stability of the country has been problematic. Relatively. Germany and Austria were less affected, on the one hand, because their domestic finances were not very developed, and on the other hand, they had the means to borrow money to maintain the production of enterprises, and at the same time they had the means to buy these products through the state to consume. Soon after the financial crisis erupted, the German government launched a series of domestic construction projects and began to look for ways to stimulate production.

As Xu Jie envisioned, the Allies used the construction of new territorial infrastructure to alleviate the pressure during the financial crisis, while Britain, France, and the United States had no way to immediately mitigate the impact of the financial crisis. By the way, there is another country that needs to be mentioned, and that is Italy. Italy's situation is slightly better than that of Britain, France, and the United States, but on the whole it is still far inferior to Germany and Austria, because Italy's own national strength is too weak and it has borrowed a lot of foreign debt. And with the outbreak of the financial crisis. It was difficult to pay for many projects immediately, which led to the interruption of the project.

As for Huaxia? Xu Jie, as a traverser, has long been prepared, on the one hand, to achieve a planned squeeze out of the bubble to reduce the impact of the financial crisis, and on the other hand, because the financial systems of China and Europe are not very related, so the impact is very small, and the area of China's new territory is larger, so the impact of the financial crisis is very small. Although the financial crisis did not deal a big blow to Huaxia, it does not mean that Xu Jie is very relaxed. He has too much to do at this time! The first big thing is to dig the foot of the wall, and the second big thing is to leave some back hands for dealing with the Allies!

Historically. When the whole world was trembling in the shadow of the financial crisis, the Soviet Union took advantage of this opportunity to buy a large number of machinery and technology from the United States to arm itself, and achieved a great leap in the industrial level of the Soviet Union, and in this plane, Xu Jie will continue to do this, and do more than the Soviet Union, because the action planned by Xu Jie is not only a state act, but also a civil act, and the government encourages Chinese private enterprises to take advantage of this opportunity to buy enterprises and equipment from other countries. It doesn't matter if the technical level is a little lower, anyway, in the context of large-scale construction, Huaxia is a seller's market, as long as you can build it, there is not much problem with sales. Of course, in some key areas, such as aero engines, precision machine tools, pharmaceuticals and electronic equipment, other countries are still relatively dead, but it doesn't matter, with the deepening of the financial crisis and the pressure of China, sooner or later they will gradually deregulate them.

In addition to machinery and equipment, Huaxia will also launch a talent introduction plan, according to Xu Jie's later experience, a group of scientists who have been famous or not yet famous but have the potential to be famous have been included in the list. Huaxia has even set up a special work department to be responsible for the introduction and placement of these people. "Mr. Kindelberg, you are well placed to continue your studies in aviation in Huaxia, and the state can provide you with a full range of services, from the real room to the residence, and at the same time arrange the work of you and your family. If you wish, we can prepare your ferry tickets to the United States tomorrow for you and your whole family. "Kindberg never imagined that when he was facing unemployment, an official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China would come back to him and offer quite generous terms." I wonder why your country would impose such conditions on an obscure pilot and designer? Kindberg asked.

"Because there are so few people in this world who are both pilots and aircraft designers at the same time." The visiting Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs personnel said this, of course, these words are just excuses, the real reason is that Xu Jie knows that this buddy has participated in the design of the P51 fighter in history! And he was only one of the thousands of foreign technicians who came to China, and these people were still famous at the time, but ten years later, their impact on the world can be described as quite enormous.

If it is not difficult for Xu Jie to deal with the financial crisis and introduce talent and equipment, (after all, these methods are experienced in history.) It's like playing a game to fight a boss, as long as you have a strategy, it's much easier. But the second thing was something he had no experience to follow. Because this has never happened in history, that is, how to deal with a much stronger Germany that has not been affected by the financial crisis! "It seems that if you experience more, you will grow, and if you don't cross over, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach the current height." Xu Jie had thought of this more than once. If it is said that when he first crossed over, he relied on historical knowledge, then now with the gap between reality and history is getting bigger and bigger, some of his previous knowledge is meaningless, and the reason why he can come to the present is because Xu Jie is also a late bloomer after 30 years of ups and downs!

The key to limiting German operations was to limit the expansion of the German navy, because in the future, if Germany wanted to ensure smooth operations in South Asia and the Middle East, it was essential to ensure the safety of maritime transportation. But unfortunately, Xu Jie also realized that Germany would get rid of the restrictions of the treaty before the Entente and enter the no-treaty era. Treaties can only be concluded if exhausted powers do not allow themselves to be dragged down by an endless arms race. But now, when one side has the ability to continue the race, and the other side is somewhat temporarily unable to do so, then the premise for the existence of the treaty is gone! Germany and Austria will certainly not give up this opportunity, and as long as they recover from the blow, they will definitely abrogate the treaty and step up their military expansion.

And this is not the worst thing, the worst thing is that if the Germans and Austrians think that their power has reached a certain point and the Allies have not recovered from the economic crisis, then they will definitely launch an offensive in the Middle East and the Indian Ocean in advance. Who will resist the Allied armies then? If the Entente countries can't go up, do you want Huaxia to go on it yourself? This is obviously impossible, not to mention the question of whether it can be blocked, it has never been Xu Jie's style to block guns for other countries! Not to mention that it was a colony of the British!

Therefore, the key to solving the problem of German expansion lies in two points: the first point is to make some trouble for the Germans so that the expansion of the German High Seas Fleet can be hindered, and the second problem is how to make the Entente, or some of the Entente countries, recover their strength relatively quickly. So that one day when the Germans really plan to do it, a certain country can immediately file it! By the way, there is also the question, that is, if Germany decides to make a move in Italy, what will China do? Especially the last problem is actually a problem that Xu Jie needs to solve urgently recently, because he can feel that this day is not far away!

This is not an unreliable thing like a seventh sense, but a real deduction based on facts, and it is true that the Allies can rely on the development of new territories to alleviate the pressure of the financial crisis, or they can also stimulate the economy through the reorganization of armaments, and even speed up the armament process. But there is one thing that will not change because of these, and that is the progress of the construction of the forward base! Even if it is the same infrastructure, the German Reichstag will never agree to invest money in the construction of military facilities thousands of kilometers away in the event of an economic crisis! They can spend money on infrastructure, they can use it to arm their own fleet, but what is the matter with you spending money on the territory of Turkey? With this money, it is better to provide more jobs for the Germans, so even if the construction of German overseas base groups is accelerated, it will not be too fast!

The lag in the construction of the base group will be an unavoidable problem for the German Navy to advance eastward, which will be the biggest shortcoming of their actions, and what is even more tragic is that this shortcoming has almost no possibility of being solved. It's good to be able to guarantee that the completion will be done step by step, and this is a blessing in misfortune for the UK!
