Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

During the war years, Longguo had fought against the United States many times.

Many old comrades call Americans "young master soldiers".

This kind of ridicule has both positive and negative meanings.

Describes the logistical supplies of the United States during the war as reaching an "outrageous" level of abundance.

The soldiers of the desert countries are not young soldiers, but old soldiers.

"Master soldier? What does that mean?"

Wang Changsheng asked in confusion.

Lin Kaifeng smiled faintly and said, "As the name suggests, the old soldiers are like those landlords. It's ok to let them do whatever they want, but if they are asked to fight on the battlefield, I'm afraid that once the gunshots are heard, these guys will either wet their pants or surrender."

“It is true that the desert countries have successively equipped themselves with new weapons from the United States and the Soviet Union, but weapons are weapons and people are people.”

"It is never the weapons that determine victory in war."

Lin Kaifeng gave an easy-to-understand example.

Suppose there is a country where everyone from top to bottom is rich, and even the lower-class people have hundreds of thousands of US dollars in savings at home.

When these people arrive on the battlefield, can they fight the enemy to the death?

Wang Changsheng thought about it, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult."

“It’s not that it’s difficult, it’s that it’s impossible.”

"Even though not every soldier in the desert countries is a wealthy man, they generally live a happy life. As long as the oil resources are not exhausted, everyone can benefit from it. They don't know why they are fighting, and they dare not risk their lives to fight the enemy."

"No matter how good the weapon is, it is no different from a fire stick in their hands."

"Drones will become a new type of automatic weapon. Instead of soldiers having to face off against each other, drones can be dispatched to participate in battles through remote control and other means to complete military tasks instead of soldiers."

Lin Kaifeng said seriously: "If an enterprise wants to go global, it must take a two-pronged approach and attack from both sides. Our company must develop both solar power generation and drone technology."

"In the military and civilian fields, we hold the door to the desert countries and ask for help from them. We will never worry about not being able to open up the situation, and our enterprises and products will never be able to go abroad."

"The United States needs us to contain the Soviet Union. As long as we do not touch the United States' base and do not dig up the United States' ancestral graves, even if we do something that goes against the interests of the United States, the United States will definitely turn a blind eye, because their entire focus is now on the Soviet Union."

Entering the desert area has always been one of Lin Kaifeng’s development plans.

No action was taken before because the timing was not right.

In the 1980s, desert areas became a powder keg that affected the world.

The Soviet Union personally took action and bullied a very small country with its giant status.

The country has a small land area and its military strength is not worth mentioning.

But its geographical location is very important.

Otherwise, it would not be praised as the graveyard of empires.

The United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union all fell in the graveyard of empires.

God did not give this country wealth, but he gave them a core hub connecting Europe and Asia.

The United States will not allow the Soviet Union to gain a foothold in this country.

They would not allow the Soviet Union to further increase their military pressure on the European continent.

At the same time, two military powers in the desert region fought each other.

It is very likely that a series of surrounding desert countries will be drawn into this war.

The United States has no energy to pay attention to Longguo, and the Soviet Union has even less energy to oppose Longguo.

All their energy was focused on fighting each other.

The Dragon Country's international space has achieved an unprecedentedly good situation.

Wang Changsheng sighed and said, "I hope everything can go as smoothly as you wish."

"The technicians related to solar power generation will be transferred to your Northern Machinery Company in the near future. Do your best and don't let everyone down."

"In a while, a group of aviation experts will come to your company to hold a symposium with you. Whether you can convince these experts to join your drone research project will depend on your own ability."

The current status of solar power generation research is exactly the same as what Lin Kaifeng expressed.

Although it has been listed as a strategic technology by various countries, it has made no scientific and technological progress for a long time and has become a useless existence.

It is not a big problem to second the technical personnel in this field to Lin Kaifeng.

As for aviation experts.

It depends on Lin Kaifeng's personal ability.

In order to catch up with the Western military powers as soon as possible, scientific research units of various military services are developing new weapons and equipment day and night.

Solve problems such as insufficient performance of existing equipment.

The Army is fine.

The Air Force and Navy have long been lacking new ships and combat aircraft.

After saying this, Wang Changsheng half-jokingly and half-truly said: "Comrade Lin Kaifeng, once you successfully convince these experts in the aviation field to join your research project, the nature of your Mechanical Machinery Company will likely change from a civilian enterprise to a military enterprise."

Lin Kaifeng said: "Minister, I am here to express my attitude to you. For products that can help the country strengthen its strength and increase its external influence, whether they are civilian or military products, Northern Machinery Company will do its duty to assist the country in completing these projects."

"As for whether it is a civilian enterprise or a military enterprise, I don't think it matters."

"Even if Northern Machinery has undergone shareholding reform, it is still a state-owned enterprise and part of the entire national system."

Wang Changsheng was very satisfied with Lin Kaifeng's answer.

Whether it is involved in military products or civilian products, as long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, it doesn’t matter what the nature of the enterprise is.

The completion of the shareholding system of Northern Machinery Company does not mean that the company will become a private enterprise.

The state still has a certain amount of shares.

At the same time, all the leadership of Northern Machinery Company were trained by the organization.

Belong to the organization's own people.

If Lin Kaifeng did something out of line, the company leaders would immediately report it to the organization.

the next day.

Lin Kaifeng took the train back to Northern Machinery Company.

Make preparations in advance to welcome the arrival of aviation experts.

In a few days, a large number of aviation experts from the Third Ministry of Machine Building will go to the Machinery Company.

Discussion with Lin Kaifeng on the project.

Lin Kaifeng, who received the list in advance, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Many of the experts on the list are Lin Kaifeng’s old friends and colleagues.

Twenty years later, Lin Kaifeng will have intersections and contacts with some experts.

Now, these aviation experts only know that Lin Kaifeng is the general manager of Northern Machinery Company.

A nationally renowned foreign exchange earner.

Soon after, Northern Machinery Company was decorated with lights and colors.

Led by Lin Kaifeng, the company leaders were waiting in front of the company gate early.

At ten o'clock in the morning, a domestic bus slowly stopped in front of everyone.

More than a dozen people got out of the car, all of them were from the Third Ministry of Machine Building.

The youngest is in his forties, and the oldest has already passed his seventieth birthday.
