Anti-Japanese War: Young Marshal? No, please call me Great Power

Chapter 172

In the five thousand years of civilization in China.

TCM can be said to have run through it.

It has a very deep heritage, and also condenses the wisdom essence of the Chinese ancestors.

Many prescriptions are not outdated even in modern space.

Many difficult and complicated diseases, Western medicine can not get it, Chinese medicine can solve it.

In modern time and space, the reason why Chinese medicine cannot be developed.

The first point is to advocate Western medicine and do not attach importance to the development of Chinese medicine.

The second point is very critical.

Drugs and medical devices are very profitable.

A large interest group has been formed.

They will not allow TCM to develop.

Of course, there are many other reasons.

For example, Chinese medicine is slow to effect, and Western medicine often has immediate results.

Zhang Xueming is not belittling Western medicine.

It can only be said that the two sides have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they are complementary existences.

In this life, Zhang Xueming would never allow this to happen.

For the development of traditional Chinese medicine, Zhang Xueming also made several instructions to the Ministry of Health.

One is that Chinese medicine and Western medicine are managed separately and independently.

China does not care about the west, the west does not care about the middle.

Soma is not as good as horse racing, and only by competing on the same track can it burst into a new vitality.

For the prescription of traditional Chinese medicine, it should be protected by patents.

The second is to promote the TCM inheritance system and the TCM expertise system.

It is necessary to crack down harshly on the practice of relying on traditional Chinese medicine to deceive.

The third is to strengthen traditional cultural education.

For example, physical education classes should add subjects such as tai chi and eight dan jin.

The fourth is to carry out more competitions in traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

There is also the establishment of a medical system.

Establish Chinese and Western hospitals in cities and counties, and establish small and micro hospitals in townships and rural areas.

Then there's the issue of hygiene.

These are all things that need to be addressed.

Suffered the losses of the previous life.

Zhang Xueming also attaches great importance to the development of medical device technology.

Western imported medical devices must not be allowed to occupy the medical market in China anymore.

This must not be allowed to happen.

January 5th.

Deutsche Herbert Shipping conducted a public tender.

Germany, which has gradually emerged from the economic crisis, has revived its import and export trade.

29 As Germany's largest shipping company.

They decided to purchase a new batch of advanced merchant ships for transportation.

The tender was for a bulk carrier with a minimum displacement of 10,000 tons.

In addition to this, they place high demands on economy.

The newly established Qingdao Shipyard after hearing the news.

A team was sent directly to Hamburg, Germany to participate in the tender.

The general manager personally led the team.

If you can win this project.

Their project of advanced high-speed merchant ships may be able to go abroad.

Building ships for foreign powers is the first time in the history of China.

Of course, you have to bid successfully first.

After all, the competitors this time are not ordinary strong.

The opponents are all from industrial powers such as Eagle Sauce, Britain, the Netherlands, Germany itself, Itoli, and Gallic Chicken.

And this merchant ship of theirs was designed for a domestic maritime strategy.

Whether it can be accepted by international shipping companies is another matter.

When the tender was submitted, a long wait began.

Herbert also conducted a professional review of more than a dozen bids.

I want to pick out the cargo ship that best meets the needs of the current company.

However, there are many selections, but some are not satisfactory.

The impact of the economic crisis on the Western shipbuilding industry is still great.

Due to the extreme contraction of the shipping market, the development of their shipbuilding industry has also slowed down.

So generally there are not many highlights.

But when they saw one of the tenders.

The staff in charge of the audit wanted to just throw it aside.

But he picked it up again and looked closely.

The more I look at it, the more I feel the vibration.

At the same time, this merchant ship also aroused his great interest.

"Director, maybe you can take a look at this."

The staff found his head, also a director-level executive.

"Qingdao Shipyard? Eastern? "

The staff nodded and said, "That's right, this Qingdao used to be our colony. "

The director scoffed, "Then what do you want me to see?" Look at their thousand-ton merchant ships burning firewood? Why they have the courage to bid for us. "

The staff member was stunned: "Maybe you should take a look, this is actually a very interesting merchant ship."

After you read it, you may change your mind. "

The director looked at him suspiciously.

He now wondered if this subordinate had received the money.

He looked at it again disapprovingly.

After seeing the various professional data on this tender.

His mouth grew bigger and bigger, and he looked very shocked.

I don't blame him for this expression.

This is a merchant ship designed by Qingdao Shipyard.

It was built to fit the current naval high-speed maritime transportation strategy.

The previous battle of Phuoc Province was due to the lack of high-speed large transport ships.

Highlights the Navy's awkward transport capabilities.

The merchant ship reached 25,000 tons in tonnage.

Due to the relatively high requirements put forward by the Navy.

Not only does it need to be efficient and fast, but it also needs to be fuel-efficient.

So they did not choose the power combination of heavy oil boiler + steam turbine.

Instead, an internal combustion engine was used, which was also a newly developed high-power diesel engine.

This is also the largest power diesel engine currently developed by the Huaxia Internal Combustion Engine Power Research Institute.

A single 12-cylinder two-stroke marine diesel engine with a single power of 20,000 hp.

This diesel engine has a lot of power per engine.

To them, it was simply shocking.

Now the most powerful diesel engine does not have more than 10,000 horsepower.

And this merchant ship from Huaxia is equipped with two such large marine diesel engines.

The total power reached 40,000 horsepower.

In this era when diesel engines were not very popular.

At present, most merchant ships use heavy oil boilers + steam turbines.

The power hasn't changed much from before.

However, the coal-fired boiler was replaced by a heavy oil-burning boiler.

The real spread of diesel engines was after the end of World War II.

Propelled by 4 hp.

The 25,000-ton bulk carrier is capable of traveling at a maximum speed of 28 knots.

Of course, for merchant ships, the primary pursuit is not speed, but economy.

The better the economy, the more operating costs can be saved.

But that's the problem.

The high-power diesel engine used in this merchant ship is considered to be economical and relatively fuel-efficient.

It also adopts exhaust gas boosting technology, which was only popularized in the 50s.

The power directly increased by more than 50%.

In addition, it has very low quality requirements for diesel.

Even if you use inferior diesel, you can still start.

This greatly improves its economy.

And in terms of fuel consumption, it is much lower than that of steam turbines under the same power.

Not only is it fast, but it also has a long range.

This is for these freighters that use heavy oil boilers + steam turbines.

It's simply a dimensionality reduction blow.

Technology in Europe is nowhere near as advanced as it was during World War II.

War is a catalyst for technology, not just talk.

And 26 knots is just its maximum speed.

If sailing at an economical cruising speed of 15-18 knots.

Compared to cargo ships of the same class of heavy oil boiler + steam turbine.

It can save at least 20% more on fuel costs.

This is where the advantages of marine diesel engines lie.

After all, diesel engines are even in the modern time and space of later generations.

It is still the main engine.

And was not completely replaced by gas turbine engines.

Isn't it because of its excellent economic performance?

Large range, high speed, excellent economic fuel properties and so on.

It is the advantage of this ship from Qingdao shipbuilders.

It is unmatched by competitors from other companies.

At least 5 years beyond the technology of this era.

And these technologies are not yet top in China.

In some ways, Huaxia's technology has surpassed Europe.

Precipitation over time. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

When Huaxia's science and technology developed rapidly, it built a great wall in the field of patents.

At that time, it will be these European and American powers who will be stuck in the neck.

"How is this possible..."

Even if you see the data on the tender.

He was still in disbelief.

But think of the battleships of the other side.

A whole 6 battleships of the 50,000-ton class.

Perhaps his prejudice against Huaxia is indeed a little deep.

"I'll hand these selected bids to the board and let them decide."

Herbert's board members can be made regardless of the country in which the ship was built.

They are interested in whether they can bring them greater benefits.

Therefore, the project from Qingdao Shipyard was included in the inspection list.

Also included was a company from the Netherlands.

Eggs cannot be placed in one basket.

And they don't have a lot of trust in the emerging shipyard Qingdao Shipyard.

Who knows how much moisture this data will have.

So they sent an expedition of dozens of people by plane to Qingdao in China.

The first phase of the Qingdao Shipyard was completed three months ago.

The second phase of the project is still in full swing.

When they arrived, they saw what they saw as if it were a large construction site.

However, this construction site is much different from what they remember.

In their stereotypes.

On the construction site in Huaxia, people should pick up the horses.

However, on the construction site, various construction vehicles and trucks were seen.

Excavators, road rollers, crushers, concrete mixer trucks, gantry cranes and so on are all available.

In terms of mechanization, it is better than in Europe.

It also gave them a big shock.

"Is this still the Huaxia I remember?"

Soon they saw the bulk carrier they needed to inspect on the trip.

Its name is Milky Way.

This is also the name given to it by Zhang Xueming.

The name is both a shame and a motivation for him.

Next to the bulk carrier Galaxy was another merchant ship.

From the overall appearance.

It's no different from the Milky Way.

The biggest difference is the deck.

Its deck is very flat and there are a lot of steel frames.

Exactly what it is for, they are not very clear.

But neither ship was built by the Qingdao Shipyard, but by the Dalian Shipyard.

But they didn't pay much attention either.

Instead, they began their own research.

After the Galaxy slipped around.

It also gave them a complete improvement in Huaxia's shipbuilding industry.

For them, who pay attention to detail, they can't fault it too much.

It took a few days to complete the initial research.

So I sailed directly to the sea and wandered around the Pacific Ocean.

This walk is half a month.

In the past half a month, they have also gained a new understanding of the Galaxy bulk carrier.

The data given by the tender is not only moisture-free.

In some ways it even surpasses.

For example, speed.

In an extreme speed test.

It even ran its extreme speed of 28 knots.

It is two knots higher than the 26 knots calibrated.

When back in port.

They saw the cargo ship moored in the harbor again.

But it's very different from half a month ago.

Among the steel shelves on the deck of this cargo ship.

At the moment, it is already full of steel cuboid boxes.

There is also a large crane that constantly lifts these boxes into the port unloading area.

When I saw this scene.

Everyone's eyes will not focus on this scene.

"This.... What is it? "

The staff of the Qingdao shipyard explained: "This is a new cargo ship of ours, which was also built on the basis of the Yinhe.

It's called a container ship.

We have developed a set of standards for containers.

All containers are manufactured to this standard.

This greatly improves the efficiency of our loading and unloading.

And we have already started combined sea and land transport.

These set 367 packs will be hoisted onto the chassis of our truck trailers and secured, ready to drive straight away.

Saves a lot of loading and unloading time.

And that's how our trains do. "

After hearing this, the Germans looked at each other.

His face was full of amazement and disbelief.

Then someone said excitedly: "If all terminals and freight systems in the world use these standard containers."

Wouldn't that greatly improve the efficiency of loading and unloading.

And with the protection of this steel container, it can also reduce the loss of goods.

It can also significantly reduce labor costs. "

The concept immediately attracted their attention.

I didn't expect to have this kind of unexpected joy in Huaxia this time.

Containers were first used during World War II.

Eagle sauce in order to facilitate the transportation of soldiers' personal belongings.

A lot of small containers were manufactured.

It wasn't until '53 that Malcolm McLean, the father of containers, perfected the idea of this container and sea-land transportation.

Soon containers began to make waves in the world.

The concept of containers was of course proposed by Zhang Xueming, a person from modern time and space.

This theory is still being tested.

It's just a small-scale application in these ports in the north.

After all, many things need to be practiced to know what the problem is.

It is impossible to touch the skin of the mouth up and down, and it begins to be directly used on a large scale.

As for being discovered by this group of Germans, it doesn't matter.

If this concept spreads.

That's what he wants to see.

It can also enhance the influence of Huaxia to a certain extent.

Although this is minimal.

More than ten days later.

Herbert Shipping Company finally decided to use bulk carriers from Qingdao Shipyard.

An order for 10 ships was placed at one time.

The price of a Galaxy-class freighter is $8 million.

That is, 20 million Reichsmarks.

As Germany's largest shipping company.

It's really rich.

Although this money is not a one-time payment.

But it can also be seen that the funds are still very strong.

It is with this single order.

Launched the fame of Galaxy-class cargo ships in the shipping industry.

As the largest shipping companies in the world have purchased this cargo ship.

And it's 10 at once.

It can also show that this cargo ship must be good.

And when they understand.

I was also impressed by its powerful performance.

And Qingdao shipyard has also begun to receive orders from all over the world.

This also had to allow them to accelerate the construction of the second, third and even fourth phases.

At the same time, he also discussed with Yingkou shipbuilders.

Build Galaxy-class merchant ships with the help of some of their empty docks.

Qingdao Shipyard was able to achieve such great success.

It was also beyond Zhang Xueming's expectations.

But he also knows it.

This is also created by the current Huaxia shipbuilding industry.

He can also proudly say that the Huaxia shipbuilding industry does not lag behind others.
