Chapter 283 Flame Plan

The atomic bomb is the product of nuclear fission. When uranium fission, neutrons will be emitted, and these neutrons will hit other uranium nuclei, so a series of reactions will occur until all atoms are split. This is the famous chain reaction theory. According to this theory, when fission continues, huge energy will explode.

The gun-type atomic bomb airdropd by the United States on Nagasaki is codenamed Fatty. It adopts an internal explosion structure and uses plutonium-239 as nuclear loading! The bomb weighs about 4,500 kilograms, and the explosive power is 20,000 tons of TNT equivalent.

The so-called financial nuclear bomb and atomic bomb fission patterns are almost the same. The collapse of Wall Street in the United States in 1929 triggered the collapse of the U.S. stock market. The weeks after Black Thursday were described as the slaughter of millionaires and eating up the future.

The U.S. economy as a whole fell into a downturn and depression. In the four years after the crisis, the U.S. GDP fell by 30%, domestic investment decreased by 80%, and more than 15 million people lost their jobs. Severe deflation threatens the existence of the U.S. economic system. The gold standard The degree has become precarious.

Zhang Xuewu played a very disgraceful role in this crisis, that is, through Shen Hanze's capital operation mode, Zhou Ying's secretly injected capital was deeply rooted and transplanted in the United States, and took advantage of the good opportunity of the bankruptcy of large-scale enterprises in the United States to rush to buy mechanical equipment and skilled technical industry technicians. .

It can be said that after the capitalist world experienced a short period of fake economic prosperity, in 1929, due to the breaking of the overall economic and industrial bubble, the U.S. political axe blindly issued currency, resulting in a high inflation rate and a large-scale so-called promotion of domestic demand. In the end, the U.S. economy could not bear it. With a huge industrial and agricultural base, the economic crisis first broke out in the United States, and then swept the entire capitalist world, forming an unprecedented and longest-lasting world economic crisis!

A large number of banks in the United States and Europe have closed down, a large backlog of products, enterprises have gone bankrupt, the market is depressed, production has dropped sharply, the number of unemployed has increased sharply, credit relations have been seriously damaged, people's living standards have plummeted, farmers' incomes have plummeted, many people are on the verge of bankruptcy, and the whole social and economic life is in chaos and paralyzed.

The Great Depression after the most serious crisis caused the total industrial product of the capitalist world to fall by 40%, the industrial output of various countries regressed to the level of the end of the 19th century, and the total capitalist world trade decreased by more than two-thirds.

More than 500,000 enterprises in the United States, France, Britain, Germany and other European countries have gone bankrupt, and more than 40 million displaced unemployed workers, of which more than 17 million are unemployed in the United States, millions of farmers are rapidly bankrupt, and the unemployed are displaced. It can be said that the economic crisis is inherent contradictions to the capitalist system. It has caused political turmoil in Europe and the United States, and the economic crisis has also intensified the contradictions between Europe and the United States, leading to a series of tariff wars, dumping wars and currency wars.

In fact, Zhang Xuewu believes that the collapse of Wall Street is just a disaster for the rich! But the subsequent Great Depression was different. During the decade of the Great Depression, half of the U.S. labor force was idle and about 17 million people were unemployed. Most of these people were the only working population in the family, which meant that tens of millions of families lost their income, so much so that Roosevelt was in a congressional report in 1937. It is mentioned that one-third of the people are ill-dressed, in peace and malnourished for many years. In a word, hunger and cold, social unrest has become a common phenomenon in American society.

Even Roosevelt's meditative New Deal failed to get the United States out of the shadow of the Great Depression. The Americans tightened their belts for another seven or eight years. In fact, the real savior of the Americans was World War II. Only the huge military supplies in wartime can fully absorb them. The United States has excess productivity, so who is looking forward to war is undoubtedly the Americans who are far away from the European war zone, have huge industrial basic industries, and are too poor to eat.

Once the war broke out, with a large number of U.S. troops, the United States has gone from being idle to a serious labor shortage, and even women who stay at home are encouraged to work. Of course, in Zhang Xuewu's opinion, solving the crisis is nothing more than the need for political axe to enjoy enough power. This seems to be a common sense. People in trouble usually welcome such power! However, once power is freed from the constraints, it will tend to be abused.

The political axe of the United States is composed of three departments, the Congress, the executive branch of the president, and the judicial department with the highest position of the Federal Supreme Court. Each of these three departments has its own jurisdiction, but they penetrate and restrict each other.

In China, if you want to implement this three-in-one political system, Zhang Xuewu estimates that the parliament will become a battlefield. Just like Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, if you want to be a member of parliament, please practice martial arts first! In particular, China still has a long tradition and origin of martial arts. I'm afraid that the parliament will become a place for the disciples of various sects at that time.

China is the only major country that has not been affected by the economic crisis that has affected the world, because China's backward industry and self-sufficient agricultural system, as well as the monetary system of the silver standard and the imperfect financial system, have saved China, but it is not so lucky. Now I rely on loans from the United States. I bought a large number of strategic materials needed to start a war from the United States and used precious metals plundered from China to repay the Americans' high-interest loans. It can be said that I am drinking poison to quench my thirst. Nearly 90% of the craftsmen and enterprises in China are bankrupt. These bankrupt enterprises are in the name of loyalty to the emperor. Its residual value is integrated together.

In fact, it is a means and excuse to plunder wealth from the people in an unscrupulsive disguise. It is said that the people have always been used to being obedient, so my economy can barely be maintained.

Zhang Xuewu's plan is to take advantage of the aftermath of the economic crisis and the Great Depression in the United States, artificially use the principle of hedge funds for future generations, and borrow the east wind of the Silver Act, which has brought great harm to China's political axe by the United States, to create a false prosperity, artificially speculate on the much-needed crude oil prices and scrap steel. The price and the price of all the strategic materials it needs have trapped me in a credit crisis.

This is a surprise prepared by Zhang Xuewu for me, the financial nuclear bomb! However, Zhang Xuewu is not an connoon after all, so he invited Shen Hanze and Zhou Ying. Zhou Ying, who has always been in lovesickness, is also happy to return to China to see Zhang Xuewu and the Baotou industrial base she strongly supports.

Shen Hanze initially chose to help Zhang Xuewu because of his daughter. Now it seems that he is still the right one. Zhang Xuewu's tenth war zone is now very good. Even the Supreme Military Commission can't do anything about it. 70% of the domestic weapons and ammunition are produced from Baotou Industrial Base, and according to Zhang According to Xuewu, 20 oil wells in Yumen Oilfield have been extracted. Yumen Oil Refinery and Baotou Refinery work almost 24 hours a day. Shanxi's coal is also being imported in large quantities along the Suiyuan Railway. The two attacks of the Japanese army were defeated by the Rehe River, and the situation in the tenth war zone is very good!

Zhou Ying's main purpose of coming to Baotou is to meet Zhang Xuewu, who misses him at night. When Zhang Xuewu defends Nanjing, Zhou Ying and Shen Yilan, who accompanied him in the United States, could hardly sleep at night. They couldn't understand that there is a saying that the battle will be before, and the scholar is brave! But Zhang Xuewu is handsome! The commander-in-chief always likes to be on the front line like a centurion?

Zhou Ying looked at the dark and thin Zhang Xuewu and gently brushed away the dust on his body and said, "Originally, I only had power and desire in my heart. When I sat in the position of the leader, I realized that everything was just a game and a dream. In just a few decades of life, the meaning and purpose of living is to You have to be worthy of yourself! Why are you working so hard for that? Are you men really inseparable from power for a moment?

Zhang Xuewu gently smelled the fragrance of Zhou Ying's hair, took a deep breath and said, "It's so fragrant! In Rehe and even Baotou, although the living standards of the people have improved a lot, and there are many rich people, there are not many fashionable girls like you. The girls here may be affected by the wind and sand, and their faces are like red apples.

Zhou Ying beat Zhang Xuewu helplessly and said, "When people tell you something serious, you always treat it improperly!"

Zhang Xuewu also smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. People say that a little goodbye is better than a newlywed. We haven't seen each other for almost a year. Can I get serious?"

Zhou Ying pouted dissatisfiedly and said, "You are an international figure, the cover character of this issue of Time magazine, General Zhang Xuewu! Commander of the 10th Theater Command, countless women at home and abroad don't want to be your confidant! The little woman also bent her waist for the hero!"

Zhang Xuewu was making fun of Zhou Ying, and the adjutant outside the door shouted cleverly, "Mr. Shen Hanze is coming!"

Zhang Xuewu hurriedly returned to normal, and Zhou Ying also sat dignifiedly on the sofa and picked up the coffee cup. After Shen Hanze entered the study, Zhang Xuewu and Zhou Ying hurriedly got up to say hello. Zhou Ying was very enthusiastic to Shen Hanze and Zhang Xuewu respectively. Shen Hanze was satisfied with the two letters of Shen Yilan's family who stayed in the United States. Nodding, Zhou Ying and her two important giants in the Chinese world, I'm afraid only Zhang Xuewu can gather them.

Did your daughter choose such a man? Shen Hanze feels more and more that he can't see through Zhang Xuewu at this moment. After contacting Zhang Xuewu, he will feel that this person is the opposite of many people!
