Chapter 190 Reversal! Xiaobao is right!

"The economic base determines the superstructure, which is a basic rule of social development. In history, economic strength often determines the political direction of a country, and political decisions directly affect the country's foreign relations and war behavior."

“Since World War I, the war situation in Europe has been closely linked to American economic interests.

By providing loans and supplies to the Allied Powers, the United States not only promoted its own economic development, but also established its leadership position on the international stage after the war.

This war provided the United States with the opportunity to become a world hegemon, allowing it to occupy an unprecedented position of economic and political dominance in the following decades."

Bao Guowei narrowed his eyes and elaborated and analyzed the reasons why the United States has been able to rise since World War I.

Xu Zhimo frowned. Hearing Bao Guowei's analysis, he nodded repeatedly and couldn't help but sigh.

This Bao Bingwen must have some strength, but why does he always have to come up with something shocking?

He couldn't help but ask: "Bingwen, what you are talking about is the policy of the United States. Doesn't the current strength of the United States just show that we should learn from it?"

In the past, far-sighted people in China set their sights on Britain, hoping to establish such a constitutional monarchy.

But the world is constantly changing, and people like Chang Bald will not be able to go far after all.

There is no doubt about this.

"Bingwen, what you said seems to make sense, but what should we do? Dictatorship? Centralization? Or something else?"

"Internal repair? It is nothing more than developing science and technology, promoting industry, using centralized means to intervene in the economy to develop better and faster, abandoning the so-called absolute liberalism, adopting another form of 'dictatorship', vigorously developing public utilities, and enhancing the country's core competition. Strength, of course in this era, the most important thing is the military industry."

After a few eloquent words, the three people were stunned for a while.

"Just like the Manchu and Qing Dynasties once did, if they cut off a land today and a city tomorrow, how can they sleep peacefully in one day?"

They may have doubts in their hearts, but they dare not speak out because no one can think that they have a detailed understanding of the United States and can surpass Bao Guowei in knowledge.

Bao Guowei twitched the corner of his mouth and said mockingly.

"The ancients said that governing a big country is like cooking a small one, and the same is true in this era. In my opinion, it is nothing more than cultivating both internal and external aspects." Bao Guowei replied simply and straightforwardly.

Bao Guowei smiled slightly and then continued.

"The so-called external repair is nothing more than not fearing powerful enemies, uniting vertically and horizontally, and taking advantage of the situation. In the current situation in Europe, Britain and the United States pursue a balance among Western European countries and pay attention to the policy of appeasement. This is a point that can be exploited."

"Why internal cultivation?"

To obtain more benefits for himself.

Dai Wangshu commented aloud. When he said the last sentence, he had already admired Bao Guowei, and the resentment he had felt these days was immediately wiped away.

"No! No!" Bao Guowei shook his head.

"The incomplete freedom of the United States is not only reflected in politics, but also in economy. A country's political system should be in line with the national conditions, not an assembly line-like copy."

They are also continuing to work hard to achieve this goal.

Seeing that others were still doubtful, Bao Guowei then gave out his own evidence.

On the one hand, in the United States, when Roosevelt came to power, he abandoned laissez-faire and adopted a "dictatorship" in a sense. He used centralized economic intervention and vigorously developed public utilities to stimulate the economy, leading Americans out of the shadow of the Great Depression.

Because in the eyes of most people, following in the footsteps of the United States has become an established fact.

“If the United States wants to solve this crisis, in my opinion, it must have a president with real power, who has greater power to deal with the Great Depression, and uses the state’s centralized regulation to take strong measures.

However, under the influence of the Great Depression, unemployment, bankruptcy, and closures are still spreading in American society.
These circumstances are enough to show that many Western systems have limitations. "

This can also be evidenced by the series of tough measures taken by President Lincoln during the Civil War. "

"What is external cultivation?" Zhang Boxong asked excitedly.

Facing Bao Guowei, his voice was much gentler.

Zhang Boxong saw hope and expected Bao Guowei to give them a satisfactory answer.

Bao Guowei almost said that there would be a world war in the future, as well as the preparation of synthetic ammonia.

Chang Guangtou must be on his last legs. After possessing this technology, his first thought must be to sell it for money.

Speaking rashly showed that I was timid, so I could only write it down silently and go back to check it one by one.

Zhang Boxong was sweating profusely, and his lips were a little white, as if he had read some martial arts secret book.

"It makes sense."

But Bao Guowei's words were really bluffing, and the three of them almost believed half of them.

But Zhang Boxong couldn't wait to know more answers later, so he took Bao Guowei's arm and said.

But Zhang Boxong was impatient. He said angrily: "Bao Bingwen, don't keep showing off all day long. Please tell me quickly. Why do you even talk like you are writing a novel? You speak paragraph by paragraph, which makes people laugh. It’s so unpleasant!”

Zhang Boxong said angrily: "Don't interrupt, Bingwen, please continue."

Therefore, when Bao Guowei made remarks that had a hint of dictatorship, the academic community reacted so violently.

Three years later, in 1933, the world would undergo a major turning point.

How much he hopes that there will be a reliable government that can truly implement ammonia synthesis.

If it were another person, he would probably pull Bao Guowei excitedly and ask if he wanted to serve the country.

But when they were stillborn, they saw the rise of the United States, and they set their sights on democratic elections, believing that democracy similar to that of the United States was the real way to save the country.

“Although the United States today is still one of the top powers in the world, it has made a lot of money since World War I by selling arms, providing loans, etc.

On the other hand, in Germany, after Mustache came to power, numerous national public facilities were built, the entire economy was brought under state control, and forced production was implemented to meet political needs.

In a sense, his dictatorship also allowed Germany to quickly transform from a country that was defeated in World War I to a front-line power in a short period of time.

Bao Guowei cannot speak of these examples now, but he knows that this path has been verified countless times and is completely feasible!
It is precisely because of these examples that Bao Guowei dared to say those words confidently and did not care about the opinions of others in his speech.

The foreknowledge is the confidence!

If you don’t have enough IQ, let’s use plug-ins to help!
Can things that have happened in history still be false based on the "hindsight" of what happened?

However, it is unknown whether those in power will listen.

But at this moment, the three people were completely in shock.

Is that so?

As one of the founders of Guanghua University, Zhang Boxong himself is very capable.

He has served as the head of the financial department in four provinces, and also served as the deputy minister of finance in Jinling.

Regarding international affairs, diplomacy and finance, Zhang Boxong can almost be regarded as a semi-expert.

He could hear the weight in Bao Guowei's words, which seemed ordinary to ordinary people.

But people like him sound like good advice.

He carefully recalled the contents of "Guns, Germs and Steel". The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

"That's right! If this flaw is corrected, Bingwen's work will be worthy of being a masterpiece of sociology!" Zhang Boxong excitedly grabbed Bao Guowei's hand and said with some emotion: "Who are these words? Taught you, who told you to write this book? Which faction is it, or has Chang Baldhead finally enlightened?

Bingwen is really a way to seek for the country! "

Zhang Boxong had been aggressive just now, and now he was like this, which really made Bao Guowei a little uncomfortable.

He took two steps back, waved his hand and said, "Principal Zhang, Guowei did not receive instructions from anyone, nor was he affiliated with any faction. He just wrote this book based on his own thinking and analysis."

Bao Guowei continued with a hint of pride: "I have always said that these contents are all written in the book, but most people are unwilling to take a closer look and follow others' opinions. The so-called authority effect, these people follow certain 'Authorities' make remarks without thinking. Do I need to respond to these criticisms and criticisms?"

When Xu Zhimo and Zhang Boxong heard Bao Guowei's cynicism, their hearts itched with hatred, but their faces remained the same.

There is no way, who can make him reasonable?

The two of them turned to look at Dai Wangshu again. The boy looked so adoring that he almost had stars in his eyes.

Come on, blindly follow authority, this person is now a living example.

Xu Zhimo held it in for a long time, feeling that he had to say something, and finally came up with something to say.

"It really answers that sentence. This is the pioneering work of human history. Bingwen's thinking has created a branch of anthropology! I don't know how much sensation it will cause if it is published abroad. By then, Bingwen’s influence will continue to reach a higher level.”

When he said this, Xu Zhimo still felt a little regretful, not that the other party's reputation had become stronger again.

But he didn't make up his mind to make good friends with Bao Guowei before he became famous and draw him into his poetry club.

What I regret most is that I misunderstood the other party this time.

It seems that I, Xu Zhimo, have also fallen into the cliché and become the "rabble" that Bao Guowei calls me?
While several people were thinking wildly, Bao Guowei put away his chair and said with great personality.

"Is it time for you guys to go back? I won't see you off anymore. There are still many manuscripts to be written and many books to be read. Gentlemen, you have got the answer, so please come back."

Without further ado, Bao Guowei put away the chairs placed in the courtyard, even those under Zhang Boxong's buttocks.

When a person is famous, it is good to have status.

You can be unscrupulous and not follow any stereotypes, and no one will criticize you.

Because, the master's rudeness is not called rudeness, it is called personality.

The master's style is not called romance, it's called using local materials.

Xu Zhimo couldn't help but sigh as he walked out of the courtyard.

"Brother Bingwen is really an eclectic person, and he truly has no stance at all."

Xu Zhimo felt a little strange when he thought of Bao Guowei's evaluation of the Western political system just now.

It breaks the aura that the West has always been strong and is right in everything.

This is one of the reasons why Bao Guowei has been criticized a lot.

But if you think about it carefully, many Western countries nowadays, such as the United States and France, almost praise Bao Guowei for his abilities.

Several of his works are almost praised to the sky, and it is said that the overseas version of "Alive" is already selling like hot cakes.

The results haven't come out yet, but there are rumors that it seems to have been out of stock several times in succession?
Foreigners admire Bao Guowei so much.

But Bao Guowei was good. He was unceremonious in his words, unabashedly criticized their institutional problems, and never worried about losing the recognition of foreigners.

Maybe this is the real master?

Thinking of this, Xu Zhimo sighed, feeling that he was older than Bao Guowei, but the distance from him seemed to be getting farther and farther.

During the conversation, Zhang Boxong shook his head helplessly and said.

"Now, perhaps only Mr. Zhou Shuren can compete with Bingwen."

Xu Zhimo said with a strange expression: "Don't you know, this Mr. Zhou Shuren is also Bao Guowei's senior brother, and the two have a very good relationship."

Zhang Boxong: "."

It took him a long time before he came up with a new topic.

"Where's Dai Wangshu? Why has this guy disappeared since he came out? Has he gone back again?"

Dai Wangshu's admiration for Bao Guowei was seen by everyone. Last time, he saw Dai Wangshu asking Bao Guowei for advice. He nodded and took notes while asking for advice. He was so serious.

I guess I must have learned some excellent knowledge.

"Hey! This guy didn't go to Bingwen, but went to school." Xu Zhimo shook his head helplessly and said.

"When Dai Wangshu heard that things had turned around, he was even more excited than Bao Bingwen himself. He said he was going to the school to tell the students about this and let them spread it, so that Bao Bingwen would not be unjustly wronged."

Hearing this, Zhang Boxong was silent for a while, then he twitched the corner of his mouth and said.

"I have a hunch that the situation is about to turn around! It looks like I need to pay more attention to the newspapers in the near future. There will be good things to watch."

Xu Zhimo was also thoughtful and said as he walked.

"It makes some sense. After all, those who spoke at the beginning were just people who read and followed others' opinions."

"Next, some gentlemen will definitely read Bao Bingwen's book carefully. After careful reading, they will definitely come up with completely different ideas."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Zhimo saw Zhang Boxong riding his bicycle.

The old man's face lost the previous violence at this moment. He said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, you go back by yourself. I won't see you off. You take a rickshaw by yourself. I have to go back quickly to check the information and read the book. Bingwen’s book still has some information that needs to be verified.”

"Wait a minute, principal, I haven't done it yet."

Before Xu Zhimo could say that he didn't bring any money, Zhang Boxong rode his bicycle into the air after two jingle bells, completely ignoring his shouts.

The cold wind blew by, and Xu Zhimo was on the deserted street, messy in the wind.

With great difficulty, Xu Zhimo stopped a rickshaw and said very embarrassedly.

"Master, do you think this will work? I will recite a poem to you, and you will make it easier for me. I will pay you when I get home."

The rickshaw looked Xu Zhimo up and down as if looking at a fool.

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

Then he walked away.

Xu Zhimo's face turned red from holding back, and he still wanted to speak, but he still sighed and looked behind him at Baofu.

"Looks like we still have to find Bingwen."

"How can a gentleman be tripped up just because of a little respect?"

"You can do it, Xu Zhimo, isn't it just a loan? What's the difficulty?"

"Bingwen seems a bit vicious lately. Will he kick me out? Wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?"

"Hi!"
