But France is different.

France's colonies were not as good as Britain's, and the government was slow to respond and failed to pass on the domestic crisis to the colonies.The result was that the economic crisis eroded France step by step, and the economic crisis became more and more serious in 1933.The French government has no idea how to deal with the economic crisis.So where do they have time to care about the Soviet Union's problems.

The same is true for the US and Germany.

After Roosevelt came to power, he was now thinking about how to stabilize the U.S. economy and how to reduce unemployment.Now the US economic crisis continues, and there is no sign of improvement at all.Roosevelt is now thinking about how to stabilize finance and how to prevent Bank of America from going bankrupt.So there is no time to talk to the Soviet Union.

Germany is actually the most thoughtful.

Too bad Hitler was busier than Roosevelt.Hitler wants to be a dictator, and has banned all parties in Germany except the Nazis, further gathering power.All that remains is to consider how to develop the German economy and how to develop the German military power.Even if he doesn't like the Soviet Union now, he has no time to take care of the Soviet Union's affairs.

Therefore, the matter of the Soviet Union was only fermented in public opinion, and other major countries did not respond much.Of course, although there was no response, European and American countries already knew that the Soviet Union's industry should not be underestimated.

"Prime Minister, this is Lu Fazeng's manager. In order to complete the smooth completion of Northern Electric Group, he was seconded from the Ministry of Electric Power to serve as the general manager of Northern Electric Group."

"I heard of you."

As the second five-year plan came to an end, Duan Xun also frequently inspected the completion of many projects.This time Duan Xun left Beijing and came to Baoding to investigate the industrial situation in Baoding.

Beijing and Tianjin are cities directly under the Central Government.

After Tianjin was divided from Zhili, Zhili currently has three major cities.One is the largest industrial city in Zhili, mainly coal city and steel city Tangshan.The development of Tangshan relied on the Kailuan Coal Mine in the early days.Because of the composition of the Kailuan Coal Mine, early industries developed here in Tangshan.

Tangshan was one of the first cities to have a power plant. In order to transport coal, Tangshan Locomotive Factory was also built to produce locomotives and carriages.As well as Tangshan and Handan are key steel cities in Chile, many steel factories are built in Tangshan.

There is also a newly developed Zhili transportation city, that is Shijiazhuang.Relying on Shijiazhuang's transportation advantages, Shijiazhuang has become one of the important trade centers in Zhili.And during the Second Five-Year Plan, a large amount of investment poured into Shijiazhuang.

Besides the two of them, the most important city in Zhili is Baoding.

Baoding is the capital of Zhili Province, and the Zhili Provincial Government is here, which is a political advantage.Moreover, Tangshan used to be one of the core cities of the Beiyang Army.Duan Xun was born as a general of the Beiyang Army, inherited the legacy of the Beiyang Army, and also attached great importance to Baoding.The headquarters of the North China Military Region is in Baoding, including the headquarters of the Beijing Garrison.

Baoding is an important military town in North China.

And here are the top military academies in China.The original Baoding Military Academy has become the highest institution of Chinese military academies.Baoding Military Academy currently has undergraduate classes, postgraduate classes, and senior general training classes.

The undergraduate class is for training junior officers, the postgraduate class is for regimental and battalion-level officers, and the senior general training class is for senior generals above division commanders to study.

In addition to Baoding Army Officer University, Baoding also has a large number of military academies.Such as Baoding Artillery Academy, Baoding Armor Academy, Baoding Aviation Academy.

They are all very famous schools in the Chinese military.

In addition to these military academies, because Baoding is the capital of Zhili Province, the provincial universities of Zhili Province are also in Baoding.Such as Zhili University, Zhili Normal University, Zhili Agricultural University, Zhili University of Technology and so on.

Combined with military academies and Zhili provincial universities, Baoding has more than ten colleges and universities in one city.Moreover, the current economic foundation of Baoding is very good. The cabinet is planning to integrate Beijing, Tianjin, Baoding, and Tangshan to develop the industry and economy in the Beijing-Tianjin area.

This time the cooperation between China and Germany, the German project is settled in Baoding.

The Germans are very good at this.

The speed is fast, and I won't talk to you.Hitler was a man of great resoluteness, and he didn't follow you at all.After the two sides reached a cooperation agreement, Germany has continuously sent soldiers to China for training.

Also on the Chinese side, a large amount of flour was sent to Germany by rail.

In November 1933, the machinery and equipment ordered by China from Germany with grain also began to be shipped into China and assembled in Baoding.Duan Xun just came to see the situation of this project.

"Lu Fazeng, the first person in charge in my country to compile two [-]-kilowatt generating sets by himself, and also the first electrical engineer in my country to design and lay the submarine cable across the Yangtze River by himself. I have long admired his name."

"Prime Minister, you are overrated."

The 40-year-old Lu Fazeng shook his head again and again.

China is short of talents, and every talent is precious.Not to mention Lu Fazeng, a leader in China's electrical field.Lu Fazeng was in charge of power plant construction projects in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai regions.

Nanjing Power Plant built a power plant by itself during the Second Five-Year Plan.At that time, Siemens' price was too high, and Lu Fazeng was very dissatisfied, so he led China's own mechanical and electrical engineers to compile a complete set of designs for two [-]-kilowatt generator sets.This is the first power plant in the history of the development of Chinese power plants to design the entire electromechanical unit.

Although the generators still purchased Siemens generators, Lufa once allowed China to have a country that can design its own generator sets.A power plant cannot be built just by having a generator.

He needs a whole set of matching designs.

In the past, the power generators in China's power plants were purchased from abroad, and the power plants were also designed with the help of foreign experts.But Lu Fa was personally responsible for the reorganization and design, and also trained a team.Many power plants in China can be designed by themselves.Then according to the design, just buy a generator.In this regard, Lu Fazeng has greatly improved the overall strength of China's electromechanical aspects.

Compared with his contributions in this regard, the underwater cables he presided over laying are trivial.So even Duan Xun has heard of Lu Fazeng's name.

Lu Fa was once one of the key experts of the Ministry of Electric Power, and one of the key technical cadres trained by the Ministry of Electric Power.

"I heard that when you were in Nanjing and Shanghai, didn't you have a good relationship with the Siemens staff?"

"Prime Minister, there have been some conflicts, but they were all work-related issues."

Lu Fazeng didn't want to complain.

Lu Fa used to be an electrical engineer, and later he was in charge of the power industry in the Yangtze River Delta region.It was directly contacting the Siemens staff. Their arrogance made Lu Fazeng very dissatisfied and seriously hurt Lu Fazeng's self-esteem.

China's power industry relies on Germany's Siemens in many ways, making them more and more arrogant.Lu Fa used to dislike them very much, so when negotiating with them, there were many conflicts.

But these are some problems in their work, and Lu Fazeng doesn't want to complain to Duan Xun.

"Ha ha."

Duan Xun smiled.

Although the specific situation is unclear, Duan Xun can understand and imagine it.I think back when Duan Xun was still a local warlord, he bowed and knelt in front of the British and Japanese ministers, bowing his head respectfully to them.Duan Xun understands that sense of shame.

So Duan Xun patted Lu Fazeng on the shoulder, and said to Lu Fazeng as he walked: "Manager Lu, you are an expert in the electrical field of our country, and you should understand the technical foundation of our country in this area. Siemens is the world's dominant company in the electrical field, and their technology is the world's leading company." It is the best in the world. This time we can get the support of Siemens. It is a good opportunity to bring the whole set of equipment back to China. We have to admit that we are behind. It is not terrible to be behind. If you are not convinced, you will learn and master their techniques completely, and then develop better techniques than them."

"Prime Minister, I understand."

Lu Fa nodded.

I understand Duan Xun's meaning.So he promised: "Prime Minister, although there are some generator factories in my country, they are not large-scale and belong to manual workshops. This time we can get Siemens complete sets of equipment, which will be a major leap forward for the development of my country's electrical field. We will definitely study well."

"Director Lu, you have been in the Ministry of Electric Power for many years, and you should understand the development of electric power in our country. In a few years, the installed capacity of power plants that need to be newly built in our country will reach more than one million kilowatts every year. As you can imagine, by then we will How many generators are needed in a year, how big is the market? If all of them are imported, how much foreign exchange will be spent. I hope to see that all the generators used in our power plants are produced by ourselves in the future.”

"Prime Minister, there will be such a day."

"En. Tell me about the situation of Northern Electric."

"Tell me about the situation of Northern Electric."

"Yes."

Lu Fa nodded.

Then he pulled out a person from behind and introduced to Duan Xun: "Prime Minister, this is Cai Zhengcui, the director of the Northern Power Plant under the Northern Electric Group."

"Very young."

Duan Xun smiled.
