Chapter 113

The relationship between countries, when broken down, is nothing more than two words: "interests". High-quality updates are there. If this interest is mutual, long-term, and reciprocal, then a friendly relationship

It will last forever. If not, then friendship is nonsense.

The United States has the same attitude towards any major country in the world, which is to restrict! Restrict! Restrict! The United States has never wanted to see a powerful China on the other side of the Pacific! Because this is not in line with the interests of the United States and its layout in Europe

It was to overthrow the Versailles system and in Asia

The layout is to turn the Pacific Ocean into the inner lake of the United States. For Americans, the greatness of Roosevelt is that during World War II, he laid the foundation for the United States to become the world's most powerful country. As for China, the market for American products is safe.

Well, don’t develop industry, don’t do this or that.

If there is something, just keep it in your heart and don't say it out loud. If you say it, everyone's face will not look good! The problem is that Fang Jianxiong just did it, so I said it and made it clear. It doesn't care whether your face looks good or not.

Why do you dare to say this? Because Fang Jianxiong has the confidence! In fact, this is the same as later

The dispute over Japan is similar. On the one hand, the United States talks about neutrality, but on the other hand, it says that the status of Japan is uncertain, and that the security treaty is suitable for Japan. The United States says everything, and the truth is in the hands of the United States. Why? Because the United States is

The world's most powerful country, because the United States uses gangster logic!

Roosevelt's luck in this time and space is not very good, because China has risen ahead of schedule. After completing the construction of the initial industrial infrastructure system, in today's turbulent climate of the world, Fang Jianxiong has enough chips to leave the United States and find other countries.

Cooperation is simply not an outcome that the United States can accept. Once the huge Chinese market is lost, the only result waiting for Roosevelt is to step down! Are you still thinking about re-election? Just dream! The United States today is not the world's most powerful country.

Confidence!

Before the problems in Europe are resolved and before the Versailles system is overthrown, angering China will undoubtedly be a big trouble. Not to mention that Fang Jianxiong's personal prestige in China is so high that it cannot be shaken by some unseemly means. Penicillin

During the incident, didn’t the Americans also join in and play a disgraceful role? But what was the result?

Silence! Silence! Silence! Although Hopkins is a very powerful person, with a very flexible mind and quick reactions! But at this moment he found that his brain was not enough. Negotiation has always been about bargaining, how could Fang Jianxiong come up with it like this?

Stud, you pretend to flip the table and go back to sleep if you don't win! How can we continue talking about this? Using technological advantages to control China's industrial development is something that is under the table. You have to flip the table over.

What else is there to say?

Thinking that the relationship between China and Germany was heating up recently, and combined with Fang Jianxiong's previous deeds, Hopkins was tangled up in his heart. If this visit to China failed, the consequences would not be something Roosevelt could bear at all. Roosevelt would be elected in the next election.

Defeat is inevitable. High-quality updates on Sino-US relations over the past two decades have been

The focus of the United States' Asia strategy. China, which has cooperated happily with the United States for a long time, suddenly decided not to play with the United States. The reason is that Roosevelt suppressed China. You must know that the United States is not better than European countries in many technical fields, and is even lagging behind. Like Britain, France, and Germany

The technological foundation of this old-school powerful country is simply not comparable to that of the United States.

"Your Excellency, President, please calm down! The United States is an independent country, and it is difficult for governments to interfere in the behavior of enterprises! My visit to China this time is to enhance mutual understanding. I will make your suggestions accurate.

Convey it to President Roosevelt." Hopkins struggled to find a suitable sentence. Before coming to China this time, he had thought of everything, except that Fang Jianxiong was about to flip the table. Those in the intelligence department can really go home and retire.

, I didn’t notice such an important trend at all.

"Mr. Hopkins, China is also a ****, and the business operations of enterprises are not something that the government can interfere at will." After Fang Jianxiong replied with a cold official rhetoric, he looked at it with a sneer and evil intentions.

On the opposite side.

Hopkins felt even more uncomfortable. This guy didn't intend to act according to common sense. The so-called political ax does not interfere with business operations, which is just what everyone says. The United States has always been a profit-seeking country, and this caste

This character is deeply rooted in the bone marrow of every American. When it comes to political interference in corporate behavior, which country’s leader can compare with Fang Jianxiong? The American government still dares to interfere in business operations.

Missing it? After Roosevelt came to power, he suppressed monopolies and strengthened the country’s financial controls. How do these actions count? People all have double standards, and so do countries. Generally speaking, the United States is a country where capital has the final say.

China is relatively complex, and the power of capital is not small, but for now, Fang Jianxiong's personal authority is more powerful. Not to mention that Fang Jianxiong himself is the number one capitalist in the country!

Hopkins really didn't know what to say. Please, you are the president of the country. The physical work of lifting the table should be done by the people below, okay? It's wrong for you to do this. It's not in line with your status!

At the critical moment, someone came to the rescue. Gu Weijun, the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, asked to see the President. High-quality update Fang Jianxiong just then hummed and said to the secretary: "Let him come in. I just have something to deal with. I'll leave it to him here."

"Hopkins almost spat out a mouthful of blood. How can we do this if we don't take him with us? How can we talk about it after you leave? How can anyone just leave after overturning the table? The procedure is wrong!

"Your Excellency, President, I..." Hopkins spoke quickly. Fang Jianxiong glanced at him contemptuously and interrupted him rudely: "I know what you mean. Let's do this. You go back first and report what should be reported.

Let’s talk about the study next time. Premier Shaochuan came to me with something urgent. That person, see the guests off!” That person was naturally Fisher, who had never spoken.

Hopkins, who has always been known for his stability, was made dizzy by Fang Jianxiong's unreasonable moves. He felt vaguely that something was wrong, but he couldn't find the answer, so he could only stand up.

Say goodbye. When the group of people came out, they saw Gu Weijun walking in. Lao Gu greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Fisher, are you done talking so soon?"

Fisher smiled and nodded and said: "Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, will know later. What good thing are you doing?" As he spoke, he glanced at the newspaper Gu Weijun was holding in his hand, and looked in high spirits. Fool

Everyone can see that something good is going on.

"Haha, it's nothing good, just..., let's talk later." Gu Weijun gave Fisher face, put away the telegram and walked in quickly. Hopkins didn't say a word. After the group got in the car, Fisher

I suddenly said: "This time the trouble is big. Gu Weijun is rarely so happy. The only thing that can make him lose his composure on this occasion is that the country has gained huge benefits. There is no other reason."

Hopkins had been resting his mind with his eyes closed, but now he sat upright and glared: "You mean, China and Germany may form an alliance?"

Fisher rubbed his forehead and said: "I don't rule out this possibility. According to my understanding of China, this country is just a cloak of corruption, but it is still an authoritarian society at its core. Fang Jianxiong's personal prestige can completely influence this country.

Germany is constantly testing the Allied Powers and constantly breaking through the bottom line of the Treaty of Versailles. Britain and France have been conniving. This is partly because they are blocking the Soviet revolution from advancing westward, but more importantly, there is something wrong with Britain and France themselves. Fang Jianxiong is a person who likes to take risks, and he is a thoroughgoing person at heart.

He is a nationalist who admires Hitler's tactics. The United States is the only country in the world that has introduced the "Chinese Exclusion Act." Even if Fang Jianxiong talks about Sino-US friendship, it is because he needs the United States for the sake of his country.

This is a gesture made only for the interests of the United States. This person hates the United States from the bottom of his heart, and he has nothing to do with generosity. To use a Chinese saying to describe his character, you glare at him and sneer at him.

He wants revenge. This bastard is not a normal person!"

Fisher said with gritted teeth. This was true, but he understood it from a different angle. In front of Fang Jianxiong, Fisher did not dare to have any resistance at all. This bastard was really too powerful. Standing in front of Hope

From the perspective of Jeans, there is another conclusion. Fang Jianxiong is a very capable person, there is no doubt about it. According to Fisher, this guy is also a crazy person.

"Can we get any information on the progress of Sino-German negotiations?" Hopkins asked without giving any hope. This kind of top secret was not something Fisher had the chance to touch. Unexpectedly, Fisher nodded and said: "I

You can give it a try, China is a very strange place. In China, favors are more important than contracts! Most of the time, Chinese people will first ask acquaintances for help when doing things."

If Fang Jianxiong hears Fisher's words, he will definitely scold him: "Just brag. The United States is not a humane society? Everything is done according to the contract? Then why do you have a party when there is something wrong? Isn't that just for the sake of it?

Building relationships? At their core, Americans are hypocrites. They are obviously prostitutes and they have to build a memorial arch!"

Gu Weijun did bring good news. The delegation visiting Germany sent back good news. The Germans opened their mouths and asked for China's latest tanks, aircraft, radars, submarines, and a complete set of penicillin technologies. Naturally, the Chinese side would not be polite and demanded

The petrochemical technology, alloy technology, precision machining technology, etc. that Germany has been unwilling to let go of before are all within the scope of China's requirements. Of course, the Germans will also doubt that without these technologies, how can the Chinese

Create high-performance aircraft, tanks and artillery. However, the Germans soon found the answer. China took advantage of the disintegration of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the economic crisis sweeping the world to poach technical personnel from Eastern Europe, among which the Czech Republic was the hardest hit. Now for

There are no less than 10,000 Czechs served by China. And the Czech technicians have always been in the habit of using second-rate technology to create first-rate products.

No matter what the Germans thought, in line with the principle of exchanging good things when they are available, the two sides began to bargain for a pound or a tael. This process is undoubtedly long, but it is also inevitable. Military and technical cooperation is just the beginning, and will continue.

It will naturally turn to political cooperation and even alliance. The Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence seemed to Hitler to be a lie. Germany was quite optimistic about the possibility of seeking an alliance with China. China did not relent at all.

Meaning, but the attitude is very ambiguous. The armies of the two countries can strengthen military exchanges. The Chinese side is happy to show the latest equipment and tactics to the German side.

Negotiations are left to others, and communication is the job of the generals. Especially the boss of the German Navy, Raeder, is extremely active. The German Navy is now blank, with a few small ships in the huge Chinese Navy.

It can be ignored in front of the formation. Compared to when Redl turned his attention to battleships, an important figure in the German Navy turned his attention to submarines. This German was called Dönitz! Commander of the German Navy's Submarine Zone 1 Fleet.

This powerful naval task force is naturally indispensable for submarines, and they are two of the latest ocean-going submarines. The local technology of German submarines has not made much progress in recent years and has even regressed. On the contrary, the submarine technology in the process of cooperation with China

Great progress has been made, which is inseparable from Fang's passion for submarines.

The two latest Jiaolong-5 ships, their predecessors are naturally German U-type submarines, and they were developed on this basis.

On June 18, 1935, Germany signed a restriction agreement with the United Kingdom to evade the Treaty of Versailles, which stipulated that Germany's undersea armed forces should be limited to 45% of that of the United Kingdom. Germany began building submarines in 1935. Type 2a

Became the first Nazi Germany

A type of submarine with combat effectiveness. After Type 2a enters service, it mainly trains excellent crews and provides reliable data for future construction of submarines. Type 2a is not advanced, with a water displacement of only 254 tons, and it is a problematic type of submarine, mainly the power plant.

and sealing devices.

Obviously, Germany's active submarines are really small compared to the 1,850-ton Jiaolong-5 submarine. Although the Germania Shipyard is already manufacturing new submarines, the technicians used are all those who have returned from China.

Although they criticize the Germans, compared with China, which has long insisted on submarine research and development, Germany's submarine technology still lags far behind. This is not a problem of industrial capacity, but because of gaps in technological accumulation.

When Dönitz saw the Jiaolong-5 submarine for the first time, he was deeply fascinated by this submarine that could carry 20 electric torpedoes. Of course, electric torpedoes looked a bit unconventional, but this was not the main reason.

Question. The important thing is that this kind of submarine is advanced in every aspect. The German submarine force undoubtedly needs this kind of thing. There is a question that Dönitz does not quite understand, that is, how can the Chinese use such a high-tech thing as torpedoes?

Fun to play?
