My girlfriend is from 1949

夜晚

Chen Huai'an stood on the balcony, gazing at the deep night sky.

Feeling the night breeze on my face, with a slightly cool sensation.

After all, it's already early February, and it must be cold to stand on the balcony and feel the night breeze.

"What are you thinking about standing here?"

Suddenly, a crisp sound came from behind.

Lin Wan had just taken a shower and was holding a towel in her hand, wiping the water off her hair.

Her pretty appearance is so captivating that it's hard to look away.

Chen Huai'an smiled and said, "I was thinking about your trip to the capital after you go back this time."

Zheng Changlin had mentioned it before he returned the day before yesterday.

It is said that the central government hopes that Lin Wan can come to Beijing to have a face-to-face talk.

After all, she was the only one who had ever been in contact with the modern world.

I hope to hear about the future world through chatting with her.

Let's also hear some of her opinions.

From the perspective of the central government, now that the whole country has just been liberated, the next issue is how to govern it.

But no one had any experience. They didn't know how to govern such a large country.

It was entirely a matter of feeling our way across the river, exploring and summarizing experiences as we went.

Lin Wan has been in the modern world for half a year.

They also gained a more intuitive understanding of the historical and contemporary situation.

Only by understanding the current world situation from her descriptions can we formulate long-term development goals.

We also gained more useful governance experience from the conversations.

If in the past we were feeling our way across the river, now we are facing the development process of the past few decades.

Many detours can be avoided.

Furthermore, they specifically requested that Type 89 police uniforms and military uniforms be custom-made.

If you choose the best option directly, there's no need for divination.

However, military and police ranks were also required to be produced.

The meaning it represents is different.

It's important to know that there was a period when the military rank system was abolished.

The entire army was dressed exactly the same.

There are no epaulettes, and even the collars are the same.

The only way to tell whether someone is a soldier or an officer is by looking at their pockets.

But now even military and police ranks are produced together.

This indicates that the central government should learn from experience and skip those years.

One can imagine that once those years of neglect are overcome, and with the support of modern technology, [the situation will improve].

What will the country be like in twenty years?

You can find the latest updated chapters of this book by searching "Deqi Novel Network" on Bing!

In the more than forty years since the reform and opening up, the country has undergone tremendous changes.

From outdated military equipment, it has leaped to the top.

Not only do we have fifth-generation fighter jets, which only a very few countries can produce, but we also have sixth-generation fighter jets.

On the sea, there is no longer a need to mount land-based artillery on ships.

The Type 055 destroyers are being built at a rapid pace, and the fourth aircraft carrier is also under construction.

Such tremendous progress could not be ignored by the other side in 1949.

However, it also has many drawbacks and leaves many hidden dangers.

It's definitely not going to be a matter of simply copying others' work; it will likely develop into a path suitable for 1949.

That's why the power was issued, demanding that Zheng Changlin and Lin Wan return to Beijing together.

Once the goods are shipped back, we'll head over there and stay for an initial seven days.

Chen Huai'an was unable to leave Shanghai, and even in Lin Wan's absence, he was unable to leave the villa.

This time, I'm not going to go through time.

Anyway, it's pointless for him to go; he can't bring the supplies back on his own.

I might as well treat it as a holiday and take a few days off.

Standing on the balcony now, feeling the cold wind, is just a way to feel depressed.

Lin Wan dried her hair, a teasing smile playing on her lips. "Why does your tone sound so sour?"

Chen Huai'an raised an eyebrow and turned around immediately.

"That's a trip to the capital, where you can meet the most respected people!"

If given the chance, do you know how many people would be willing to pay a high price to meet him?

Modern times are much better; I can only watch helplessly from the sidelines.

How could I not be envious?

His tone made no attempt to hide his envy and jealousy, and his heart and eyes were filled with resentment.

So many opportunities, but unfortunately I couldn't go.

It's understandable that someone would feel so depressed that they would stand on the balcony and let the wind blow on them.

Not letting out a few howls in the middle of the night was already considered restraint.

"Calm down, calm down. Maybe the restriction will be removed in the next system upgrade?"

Lin Wan smiled and comforted her, but her pretty face also showed seriousness.

He said in a low voice, "Actually... I'm a little nervous about going to the capital."

One reason I was nervous was that I was going to meet someone I respected.

Another reason is that I'm nervous about going home.

After all, when she returned from studying abroad, her family expected her to work in Beiping, get married, become a wife and mother, and live a simple life.

As a result, she joined the party in France and even became an underground member.

After graduation, I returned to Beiping and spent a few days with my parents, which was my last act of filial piety.

From the day he joined the underground party, he was prepared to die.

Then one morning, after leaving a letter, he took the train to Shanghai.

Three years have passed, and we can only keep in touch by letter. I haven't been able to go home to visit anyone.

Now that we're liberated, it's only natural that I want to go home and take a look.

But thinking about how I left without saying goodbye back then, and the worries my parents have had over the years...

I couldn't help but feel indebted.

From my correspondence with my parents, I also know that my father is very angry!

This is also why I haven't come from Beiping to Shanghai to see her in the past three years.

Still angry!

Fortunately, due to the nature of their background, they did not need to falsify their identity.

All identities are public, real, and verifiable.

Correspondence with family became a form of protection.

However, he did not dare to reveal the real reason in the letter.

Besides the parents' concerns, it was also to prevent the letters from being seen by spies.

Therefore, in the signals she sends to the outside world, she is an independent woman who has returned from studying abroad, received a new education, and pursues freedom.

Lin Wan's independence is true independence in all aspects of life and work.

Instead of being like modern "fairy girls" who demand both mental and physical independence and rely on men for financial support.

She gets criticized for being stingy and inferior when she splits the bill with a Chinese man, but she always pays for meals and hotel rooms with foreign men. She has truly taken double standards to the extreme.

Lin Wan will definitely be scolded when she goes home this time.

The thought of going home and seeing my parents and brother naturally made me both nervous and excited.

Seeing her nervous expression, Chen Huai'an comforted her, saying, "The old lady is very kind, you don't need to be nervous."

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Are you prepared for the questions and answers?"

Lin Wan blinked her big eyes and asked eagerly, "What are you preparing?"

I hadn't really thought about that.

"You!"

Chen Huai'an sighed with a look of disappointment and frustration.

If it were me going to the capital, I would have made ample preparations long ago.

She grabbed his fair wrist and sat him on the living room sofa.

"If asked about your views on the present and the future, how would you answer?"

Lin Wan blinked and hesitated before saying, "This..."

Her embroidered eyebrows furrowed as she quickly began to think.

Chen Huai'an didn't give him time to think: "Have you forgotten my warning again? You can't participate in these things, and you certainly can't answer them. Just pretend you're a clueless newbie!"

After thinking for a moment, I added.

"Of course, it's not okay to say nothing at all."

However, you can choose to say it selectively, choosing to say things that are not sensitive.

For example, we don't need to worry about the Korean War next year.

Oh, and you can also make a suggestion.

With a year left, we should seize the opportunity to attract investment.

"Appropriately relax policies and vigorously support American investment!"

Chen Huai'an gave his suggestion after only a brief thought.

He even took out his phone and handed over the memo he had written.

These were ideas I had already thought through long ago.

Initially, these ideas were for my own benefit.

After the time-travel system finished loading, I was able to go back to that night in the Republic of China era.

Chen Huai'an lay in bed, too excited to sleep all night.

At the same time, I am also considering how to conduct myself after this is over.

Because in other people's eyes, they are a person from the future world, a know-it-all.

Honestly, what if one day I met someone from the future?

Then I'll definitely feel better. I'll ask some questions about myself and other things I care about.

But once we're in Beiping, are there some things we can talk about?

That's absolutely impossible!

Because neither subordinates nor juniors have the right to judge.

Similarly, because of their different positions and perspectives, the decisions they make are naturally different.

Therefore, Chen Huai'an made up his mind that he absolutely must not say another word.

This includes his interactions with Vice Mayor Zheng Changlin, a figure who left his mark on history and was highly controversial over the past two decades.

In every conversation, they never mentioned personal matters.

Even if the other party takes the initiative to bring up the topic, Chen Huai'an will pretend not to understand and will not respond at all.

The more you say, the more mistakes you make; there are many things that cannot be said, nor should they be said.

Therefore, when transporting books, science textbooks and other books were handled without restraint.

However, modern history is entirely sealed away in plastic.

This is for my own protection, and also for Lin Wan's protection.

But now that Lin Wan is going to Beiping, some things are unavoidable.

Therefore, Chen Huai'an's strategy was to avoid the important issues and focus only on science.

If we must get to the political level, then let's talk about the international landscape.

They steered the conversation toward the disintegration of the Big Brother and onto the Americans.

Attracting investment is just one way to change the subject.

They offered suggestions while also subtly indicating that they wouldn't participate in certain matters.

Given Lin Wan's current extraordinary status, she only wants to contribute to the country's development, and the higher-ups won't make things difficult for her.

What you want to avoid, you can basically avoid.

The contents of the memorandum were some of Chen Huai'an's schemes and things to help Lin Wan gain merit.

If it goes well, you're guaranteed to make a fortune.

No matter what, you won't lose out!

Previously, they were thousands of miles away from Beiping, and there were some things they couldn't report in person, which is why they didn't say anything.

Now that Lin Wan is going to Beiping, we can take advantage of the opportunity to report to her in person.

I also took the opportunity to report some of my ideas.

At the very least, the country should make a huge profit.

Lin Wan read the contents carefully, her embroidered eyebrows furrowed.

He asked doubtfully, "With such generous terms, aren't we getting the short end of the stick?"

The memorandum outlined investment attraction policies targeting the United States.

Even in modern times, these preferential policies would be condemned as betraying national interests.

It's basically giving money away to foreigners!

It's no wonder that Lin Wanhui frowned, looking puzzled by these proposals.

Moreover, the two had been together for six months and understood each other's personalities.

Chen Huai'an has his own principles when it comes to doing things.

In business, I won't be a sucker, but I also won't let the other party suffer a loss.

The key is to achieve a win-win situation.

He'd be furious if anyone dared to take advantage of him!

However, the current investment promotion policies are full of various preferential policies.

What Lin Wan found most incomprehensible was that the land used by the investors could be purchased directly.

The purchase price was outrageously cheap, practically free.

This is completely out of character for someone who never suffers a loss.

Lin Wan blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "This is...?"

Chen Huai'an grinned: "Do you feel like we've been taken advantage of?"

Although he kept asking if he had been taken advantage of.

However, the bright smile on his face, along with a hint of ulterior motive, clearly indicated that things were not as simple as they appeared.

Lin Wan looked puzzled and nodded, "Mm."

With his big, blinking eyes, he looked like a good student listening attentively to instruction.

Looking at her adorable appearance, Chen Huai'an felt even more pleased.

After all, they are young people, and they all have a desire to perform.

He especially likes to show off in front of girls.

This isn't a characteristic of any one person; it's a common situation among boys.

The prettier the girl, the more he tries to impress her!

This situation is similar to the courtship process of animals in nature.

A peacock spreads its tail feathers, isn't that for courtship?

Chen Huai'an took a sip of cola before slowly explaining.

"The country's top priority now is to develop the economy, or to put it bluntly, to make money!"

As you can see, we now have trade and economic relations with everyone.

Therefore, in the new China, it is also possible to do business with Britain and the United States.

However, historically we have needed the support of our big brother, so we have kept our distance from the United States.

But things are different now; we have the support of the modern world.

In trade and diplomacy, we will no longer need to be constrained.

It is believed that the central government will also refer to modern successes and change its trade policies accordingly.

Moreover, with the support of the modern world, they no longer need to be controlled by Big Brother.

What the older brother could give, the modern era can also provide.

What the older brother couldn't provide, the modern era can provide too!

Let me give you a heads-up: I've already asked Zhou Liming for help in ordering a large mushroom!

They're having a meeting to discuss it, but I'm sure there won't be any major problems!

The current situation in the new China is that the elder brother is dependent on our light industrial products.

They just put on an act of only wanting to get rich and make money, completely ignoring the development of heavy industry and military industry.

Even if we do business with the United States, Big Brother will turn a blind eye.

The more economically developed we become, the happier we are as the Big Brother.

In particular, we lacked military strength and were completely regarded as a vassal.

Just like Japan today, no matter how well it develops, it is still controlled by the United States.

Japan's economy took off in the 90s, but the United States signed the Plaza Accord.

They simply reaped the benefits of the hard-won economic development.

Although almost 30 years have passed, I still haven't recovered.

In the eyes of the elder brother, the new China was a large blood bag that could be used at any time.

As long as there is no threat, they will not object to doing business with the United States.

And the preferential policies we offer to attract investment from the United States are not given away for free.

It seems like the land was given away for almost nothing, with a three-year tax exemption.

Do you think we've lost out?

No, actually we made a killing!
