Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

"The problem is not as simple as you say."

"How to say?"

Sun Jingwen looked at his father curiously. As he said before, ever since Sun Jingwen was a child, he always felt that his father was omnipotent. Even now, his idea has not changed.

Since Sun Tong said that this was impossible, in his opinion, there must be a lot of problems here.

"There are two reasons. The first is that the Ugly Country will not let the Russians make up for their shortcomings. Over the years, don't the Russians know that they are short of a leg? They know, they have always been clear about their own problems, but why haven't they solved them?"

"Lack of money, lack of technical talent, and lack of time."

"That's right. Look, you know it all, don't you? The government only has so much revenue each year. In recent years, in order to fight against the three countries of Ugly, Ying, and Gao, the Russian bear has invested most of its fiscal revenue in the field of military equipment. Where can you let them find money to develop light industry?"

"That's true. The light industry of the Russian bear may not be as strong as that of the Dragon Nation when it was first established. What's the other reason?"

"Naturally, the Dragon Kingdom is unhappy."

"Uh..."

Sun Tong's words completely left Sun Jingwen speechless.

In fact, there was no need for Sun Tong to continue speaking. After all, at this point, Sun Jingwen had already completely figured out the ins and outs of this matter.

Through trade with Russia in recent years, not only has Longguo achieved tremendous development in light industry, but more importantly, their heavy industry has also been developing as well.

Although the two countries belong to the same camp, the international situation faced by Dragon Country after its founding is much better than that of the Bear Country.

The most crucial thing is that the Russian bear in this world was severely weakened by Sun Tong during the financial crisis after World War I.

Comrade Steel failed to take advantage of the Great Depression in the U.S. to purchase equipment from the U.S., which undoubtedly greatly weakened the early development of the Russian Bear.

The foundation was not laid well, so the overall situation of the Russian bear today is naturally incomparable to that of Sun in the same period of his previous life.

"Father, what do you think will be the final outcome of the Mao Xiong?"

"It's hard to say, but the possibility of disintegration is very high. After all, you know exactly what the alliance they created is like."

"I don't know if I will ever see the day you mentioned, but then again, what do you think our Nanhua will be like in the future?"

"It will remain the same as it is now. However, when our economy develops to a certain level, Nanhua will definitely expand abroad. By then, the situation we face will definitely be much more complicated than it is now. However, by then, it is estimated that you will not be in power. Maybe even my eldest grandson will have retired by then."

"Oh, by the way, Father, my uncle asked me to bring you a message a few days ago."

"What trouble did he cause again?"

Sun Tong's brothers all came to Xin'an to settle down. Since they had no shortage of money, apart from helping Sun Tong with his work in the early years, they gradually left their jobs after Sun Tong retired.

Nowadays, the second son, Sun Wei, locks himself in the laboratory all day long. This great scientist with the title of prince is now very famous all over the world. After all, he not only invented the first digital camera, but also organized the design of South China's first satellite and the first intercontinental missile.

In the past, many things were kept confidential, so the names of many heroes were unknown to outsiders.

But now satellites are not only owned by South China, so South China no longer needs to keep it secret from those scientific researchers, so Sun Wei's name naturally spread.

Compared to the second brother, the third brother has been running around after retirement just like Sun Tong did in the past, and has been involved in many romantic scandals over the years. The fourth, fifth and sixth brothers are relatively honest, especially the sixth brother, who is still serving in the army. As an imperial marshal, Sun An may not be as famous as the other generals of the empire who participated in World War II, but this guy's record during the war was not bad at all. More importantly, he is the master of the Nanhua Empire. This point alone is not comparable to other generals in the army.

"My third uncle is planning to go to the foot basin soon."

"What did he do in the past? He didn't think what he did was shameful enough. Besides, does he not want his kidneys anymore?"

"Father, my uncle went there for serious business this time. You know, he is the one who controls the foot basin industry behind the scenes. Recently, some desperate guys are trying to get involved in this industry. My uncle went there to investigate the little devil. If he is really talented, he plans to support him as his white glove. After all, as you said, the things he did are not well-known, so he plans to hide behind the scenes in the future."
