"Haha, yes, the blacksmith must be strong. Only when we have enough talent reserves and take advantage of the strong impact of the coming major crisis on the Western world, can we purchase a large amount of advanced equipment and technology, and combine the two to achieve our leapfrog development." Zhao Zhenzhong also said with a smile, "However, we should also remind overseas students in the United States to use their study abroad time to understand and understand the professional knowledge they have learned thoroughly. At the same time, we also try our best to create opportunities for them to pass the test of production practice during this period of time, so that they can enrich and improve the professional knowledge they have learned through production practice. In this way, after they have completed their studies, they can become the backbone leaders in our development and construction and stand on their own. Only our various constructions can truly make great progress."
"Of course, we also need to remind everyone to cultivate their creative thinking. After integrating the knowledge and technology of the United States, we can create our own things. But don't introduce a kind of aircraft from abroad as in history, and with the support of national resources, we have to change it for more than 40 years and cannot break out of the original rude."
After hearing what Zhao Zhenzhong said in his words, Zhou Hao also smiled: "Yes, we have to seize the day now, but we don't have so much time to squander, let alone cultivate a group of technicians."
"Innovation of production technology or technological progress is crucial at some point, and it can even reverse the strategic trend to a certain extent. Just like when Germany bombed London in World War II, if the British had not used their leading radar technology to use their leading radar technology to make the most of their combat aircraft and barely resist the Goring offensive, Hitler's Sea Lion Plan would have really succeeded."
"That's right!" Zhao Zhenzhong nodded and continued: "Just let me say that the production technology of the two drugs, sulfonamide and penicillin that Xiaotian has obtained, not only can cure diseases and bring considerable economic benefits, if we make good use of it, we can also exchange the key technologies we need. For example, after we obtain the penicillin patent in two years, we can use it from Germany to exchange for the steel metallurgy technology and some military technology we need."
"By the way, from this morning to now, Xiaotian has been talking about her achievements. Xiaohao, don't you have anything to surprise me?"
"Haha, there are still some results. If I don't have any achievements, would I be embarrassed to listen to my sister telling her great achievements here?" Zhou Hao said with a smile: "Old Zhao, don't be anxious, listen to me slowly."
"I will first explain that the achievements I have achieved are incomparable to the epoch-making significance of the two medicines of my sister, but these achievements can also bring us a lot of economic benefits and provide us with the materials we urgently need at present. In addition, although I am responsible for the electrical appliance company and the machinery company, my main energy is still on the electrical appliances. As for the machinery company, Li Yunshan is now managing the specific management of it, and I am waiting for you, the powerful man, to give me some advice."
"Okay, let's talk about the achievements."
"The electrical appliance company has established at the beginning of last year to now, and has owned household appliance production lines such as radios, fans, washing machines, fluorescent lamps. Among them, radios, electric fans, and washing machines, we have improved these three categories based on the original products of this era to make them more useful; fluorescent lamps are the original products of our electrical appliance company in this era, and have applied for related patents."
"Wait a minute," Zhao Zhenzhong interrupted and asked, "Is there no fluorescent lights in this era?"
"Anyway, we haven't seen it in China, nor after we arrived in the United States. And after I tinkered with fluorescent lights, I obtained relevant patents in the United States, Britain, Germany and France." Zhou Hao spread his hands, "As for when fluorescent lights were invented in history, my sister and I have no impression."
Zhao Zhenzhong didn't know when fluorescent lamp was invented in the original history, so he smiled and said, "Since we don't know, you have applied for a patent again, then treat it as your invention."
"This is cheating, that's so embarrassing." Zhou Hao said with a little twisted voice: "Also, I didn't use my name when applying for a patent, but used someone else's name, so I can save trouble in the future."
In original history, fluorescent lamps went through two stages of development before they were produced. It was not until 1938 that Eman, a researcher at General Electronics, in the United States, broke through the design and production of start-up devices and made fluorescent lamps with completely different performance from mercury lamps.
This fluorescent lamp is filled with a certain amount of mercury in a glass tube. The inner wall of the tube is coated with phosphor powder, and there is a filament at each end of the tube as an electrode. After power is turned on, the mercury is discharged and ultraviolet rays are generated at the same time. The ultraviolet rays stimulate the fluorescent substances in the inner wall of the tube and emit visible light.
Because fluorescent lamps are not as bright as mercury, too dazzling and will radiate a large amount of ultraviolet rays that are harmful to the human body, and it is brighter than incandescent lamps, and has a high power utilization rate and saves electricity. Therefore, as soon as the fluorescent lamps were born, they quickly entered ordinary families. Because the composition of fluorescent lamps is similar to sunlight, people also call it "fluorescent lamps".
"Haha, since you have developed fluorescent lights, let's leave the research and development work of other lamps to you." Zhao Zhenzhong smiled and added tasks to Zhou Hao, "including various vehicle lamps, mining lamps, searchlight lamps, flash lamps, etc.."
Zhou Hao grinned at first, but then he thought that one sheep was rushing and a group of sheep was rushing. In addition, there were a lot of progress in the company's related research, so he agreed.
"By the way, Lao Zhao, you just said flash, which reminds me of something about cameras and film. Kodak is headquartered in Rochester, New York, and there are also their branches in New York City. Do we need to design and produce a camera or film, and divide a piece of cake in this market?"
"It's better not to do it." Zhao Zhenzhong shook his head and denied Zhou Hao's proposal, and then explained: "Camera and film technology are not urgently needed now. We should focus our limited energy on other more important things. Of course, if Kodak has shares to go public, we can take advantage of the trough of the stock market in the future and eat its shares to prepare for the future acquisition of its production technology. In addition, we can pay attention to the development of its color film technology so that we can obtain its latest products in a timely manner."
"Follow color film? What do you want to do with that thing?" Zhou Hao was a little puzzled.
"Color film is a good thing. If we have it, we can leave more realistic image information. We can even establish an ID card management system in the base area, strengthen our control and management of the base area, and further eliminate the possibility of foreign forces intervening. If there is color film, we can also set up our own image film crew to shoot some documentaries or promotional films." Zhao Zhenzhong explained.
"If it is really so important, I think it's better to develop it yourself. Anyway, we know that the development direction of that thing is just a combination of silver halide and photographic gelatin, and it should be produced in front of Kodak." Zhou Hao insisted.
"Haha, it depends on your confidence. If you can produce it within 5 years from now on, then you can do it; if you are not sure, focus on electronics and electromagnetics. After all, compared with film, radar is what we need more." Zhao Zhenzhong advised.
Zhou Hao thought about it carefully and said confidently: "No problem, I am now confident that I can produce radars that exceed World War II levels in the next few years. Organizing a small team to pay attention to color film will not delay me much."
Seeing that Zhou Hao was quite sure, Zhao Zhenzhong agreed and said, "Since you are so sure, that's a good thing. In addition, do this electrical appliance company have other achievements?"
"Hehe, the electrical appliance company has no results, but I have achieved very good results with the electrical appliance company as a cover. And this result can make up for our current shortcomings." Zhou Hao was a little proud.
"Since we arrived in the United States for 25 years, we have been unable to communicate with the country in time. Now this problem can be solved." Zhou Hao continued to explain: "At the beginning of last year, I sent you 35 radio stations of different power. After returning, I have been working hard, hoping to make high-power radio stations that can communicate directly with the base area. It is not in vain. After more than a year of hard work, in June this year, several high-power radio stations have been made. Theoretically, these radio stations can fully communicate with the country across the ocean, and have also been verified halfway."
"Half of the verification?" Zhao Zhenzhong was a little confused.
"Old Zhao, because I did not prepare in advance, I could not communicate with the radio stations in the base area to verify the effectiveness of these radio stations I produced myself. However, I used the international radio station in Shenyang in China to conduct a brief verification, so it can only be considered half."
"The largest radio station in China is now set up by Zhang Zuolin and his son in Shenyang, and they can communicate directly with Germany and the United States. During the experiment, I not only received the international general code from Shenyang, but also communicated with it through the international code. Of course, I pretended to be sailing on the ocean and accidentally received the Shenyang code to have a brief confirmation dialogue with it."
Historically, China's radio communications were once slow to develop, especially in international communications. In 1924, Zhang Zuolin first established a radio receiver at the Octagon Pavilion of the Imperial Palace in Shenyang to receive news from countries around the world and be able to receive telegrams from Germany and France to China in one-way.
In June 1927, a large shortwave radio station in Shenyang was completed and a 10-kilowatt radio transmitter was installed. At the end of the year, Shenyang International Radio Station was established and a two-way communication circuit was established with Germany. This was the beginning of direct communication between China and Europe. In 1928, a 10-kilowatt shortwave radio transmitter was added. Shenyang International Radio Station was responsible for forwarding international telegrams from Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Hankou and other places, becoming the largest international radio station in my country at that time.
Zhao Zhenzhong has also seen the news of the progress of Chenyang International Radio in the past two years in the newspaper, but he did not expect that they have made a report with the United States and allowed Zhou Hao to take advantage of it as he pleases.
"Haha, among the achievements you mentioned this afternoon, the news from this radio station is the best news." Zhao Zhenzhong laughed happily, "With this thing, we can not only communicate with each other in time, but also set up another overseas base in the future to understand relevant information and respond in a timely manner. Moreover, after we establish an ocean-going fleet, we can also obtain the specific situation of the fleet in time. This really gives us wings."
Zhou Hao also smiled and said, "Oh, it's not easy to be satisfied with you, Lao Zhao. I will improve it during this period, try to reduce the size, increase the power, and enhance reliability. When you go back, you can bring a few units with you on the boat. In this way, we can get the news in time across the ocean."
"Okay. However, we need to establish a set of strict and effective contact information, especially to formulate a special password." Zhao Zhenzhong reminded.
"Don't worry, I'm already prepared here." Zhou Hao replied.
