Chapter 1878 Historical Moment 4

Early the next morning, all of Berlin, and even all of Germany, could no longer hold back their restless hearts. In the past 30 years, the Berlin Wall has always been a shackles that troubled the German nation. A nation, brothers;

The wall is completely isolated. Although it has been opened before, allowing people from East and West Germany to communicate with each other, it has not been demolished and may be closed at any time. It is more of a temporary nature, or caused by the government being unable to withstand the pressure.

Once there is a strongman in power, he will not care at all; it is still unclear whether it will be closed again. Now the official decision to directly demolish it means that there is no possibility of closure in the future; the people are naturally ecstatic.

The demolition of the Berlin Wall is a great victory not only for Germany but also for Western countries led by the United States!

Whether the Berlin Wall is built or torn down, it is a major event in the development of human history; some scholars believe that whether it is built or torn down, it is a good thing for Western countries to kill two birds with one stone.

However, for the Soviet Union, whether it was built or demolished, it was a huge failure; because it was built when the Soviet Union failed to deal with the Berlin crisis, it was even regarded as a lack of confidence!

Rome was not built in a day, but the Berlin Wall seemed to appear in front of everyone overnight!

Construction began in 1961 and went through a total of four stages. In 1961, it was just a barbed wire fence, so it could be laid overnight; in the second year, East Germany found that the simple barbed wire fence was ineffective and could be easily crossed with a vise; so in 1962

Initially, it took three years to strengthen the barbed wire fence. This is its second style.

After the reinforced barbed wire fence was completed, East Germany decided to spend ten years pouring concrete walls along the barbed wire fence; it was not until the last section was cast in 1975 that the complete Berlin Wall was completed.

Then there were constant repairs and improvements, and in some places it was built into the 75-type border fence; it was very beautiful. It was not until 1989 that this kind of construction stopped; it had entered the fourth style.

In fact, both East Germans and West Germans are Germans. Germans have strong national self-esteem, and they don’t like this kind of division from the bottom of their hearts. During World War I and World War II, they yearned for the sacredness of unity in their hearts.

The Roman Empire. However, as a defeated country in World War II, they had no choice but to be sandwiched between two big countries and be at the mercy of others.

The United States and Western countries have taken advantage and behaved, and have continued to encourage people to climb over the wall, resulting in frequent killings at the border. The West has mobilized the media and scolded them every day; it violates human rights and is indifferent to human life.

And they have been calling for the demolition of the Berlin Wall. They know that such an appeal will warm the hearts of the Germans. They also know that the Soviet Union and East Germany will never demolish the wall; in fact, Western countries themselves are not willing to demolish it.

Because this is a good card to fight against the Soviet Union and East Germany.

When the Berlin Wall fell, the people in East and West Germany were really happy. They were purely happy without any political factors. Other American and British politicians who gave speeches around the Berlin Wall all used the Berlin Wall as a prop. Don't look at what they say.

Regarding human rights, in fact they don’t care about the life or death of Germans!

It took more than ten years to build the Berlin Wall, but it took one morning to dismantle the Berlin Wall. At this time, it was no longer possible to tell the difference between East Germans and West Germans. People from East Germany and West Germany would help as long as they were physically able.

Germany itself was founded on industry and has never lacked large-scale machinery and equipment. The construction companies in Berlin seemed to have made appointments. No one went to work, and they all came to the foot of the Berlin Wall.

At this moment, Berlin is the focus of the entire world, and reporters from all over the world are vying to report on it. At present, the international mainstream media is basically controlled by the United States and Western countries. The Berlin Wall should not exist if it has been reporting before. Now that it has finally been demolished, it will naturally be considered a

It was a great victory. It also took the opportunity to discredit the Soviet Union, killing two birds with one stone.

Just as people in both Germany and Germany were enthusiastic about dismantling the Berlin Wall, Bao Bao, the richest man, came to the presidential palace!

Perhaps they know that the super-rich are very concerned about security issues, so the security personnel of the Black Cloud Group were allowed to enter the presidential palace; this is rare in history, and it can be said to give them enough face.

Manfred Gerlach did not choose the reception room, but met Bao Zixuan in the office. There were only two people in the whole process, and Bao Zixuan’s German proficiency was another plus!

Many things are still unclear, and the fewer people know about them, the better; as the president, you must consider the country and the nation to see if the other party is worthy of entrustment.

Manfred Gerlach smiled and said: "Hello, Mr. Bao! I have heard of your name for a long time, but I have never had the chance to meet you. As the most successful businessman in the world, I would like to know your views on East Germany's politics and economy.

What do you think!"

I went straight to the topic and didn't give any time to think.

It can only be said that everything is forced by the situation, and there is no room for too much time to be wasted. After the Berlin Wall is dismantled, the specific details of the merger of the two Germanys will have to be discussed; then, the issue of handling East German state-owned enterprises will naturally be put on the agenda.

What kind of character is Bao Zixuan a typical science and engineering man? The East German intelligence agency investigated in detail. He attaches great importance to efficiency in doing things, which is somewhat similar to the Germanic people! There is no need to test each other, which will only cause misunderstandings!

At this moment, Mr. Bao is also thinking about how to answer the other party's question. With the demolition of the Berlin Wall, it will eventually end with East Germany annexing West Germany. Even if you don't want to admit it, East Germany has failed miserably!

You don’t expose people’s shortcomings, and you don’t slap people in the face. Saying it in person can easily make people resentful. But if you don’t tell the truth, it will make people feel that you are not sincere.

Bao Zixuan thought for a while and said: "I have heard it said before, and I think it is indeed true! West Germany inherited nothing except the Iron Cross; East Germany inherited everything except the Iron Cross. Although it is a slight exaggeration,

But to a certain extent, it reflects the characteristics of East Germany and West Germany. In most people's impressions, the East German army is full of military virtues and its military appearance is quite majestic; while the West German army is unbearable and its army shows some freedom.

, a state of undisciplinedness.”

"Although East Germany has a more powerful military than West Germany, its economy is not as good as West Germany. Data show that East Germany's per capita GDP is only 1/4 of West Germany, employee income is 1/3 of West Germany, and labor productivity is only 1/4 of West Germany.

30%, the import and export trade is 1/10 of West Germany; the technological level lags behind West Germany by 20 years!”

"Of course, this does not mean that the official governance ability of East Germany is worse than that of West Germany. It is more of a congenital deficiency. Historically, Germany's economic structure has always been rich in the west and poor in the east. The Rhine River Basin in the west has been the richest in Germany and even Europe since the Middle Ages.

Prosperous areas. The most developed areas in Germany are mostly concentrated in the west.”

"Before World War II, industrial output in eastern Germany accounted for only 18% of the country's total output. In addition, East Germany's land area, resource reserves and population were not as good as those of West Germany. Generally speaking, in terms of economy, East Germany was inherently inferior to West Germany.

Virtue.”

"During World War II, the battle conditions on the Eastern Front in Europe were far more tragic than those on the Western Front. Many battles with heavy casualties occurred in Eastern Europe and eastern Germany. Under this circumstance, the war losses in eastern Germany were much higher than those in western Germany. World War II

45% of the industries in the central and eastern regions were destroyed, while only 20 to 30% of the industries in the western region were destroyed. East Germany's foundation was not as good as West Germany's, and it suffered greater damage during the war, so it was naturally difficult to reach the level of West Germany."

"During the Cold War, the two countries East Germany and West Germany were actually agents of the Soviet Union and the United States respectively. The strategic decisions of the Soviet Union and the United States had a major impact on East Germany and West Germany respectively. As we all know, the United States is the number one in the world.

As a major economic power, it did not suffer much losses during World War II; therefore, it formulated the Marshall Plan after the war and used heavy funds to assist the development of West Germany. Compared with West Germany, East Germany lacked wealthy donors. Although its backing was the Soviet Union,

The military is strong, but the economy is far inferior to that of the United States."

"The Soviet strategic line had a significant impact on East Germany. After the establishment of East Germany, its system copied the Soviet Union and completely adopted the Soviet model. During Brezhnev's administration, the shortcomings of the Soviet model became more and more obvious, and East Germany was also affected by it;

Coupled with the failure to correct it in time, it became increasingly harmful and ultimately affected the economic development of East Germany."

"Of course, East Germany worked hard to carry out domestic construction despite its low starting point; it eventually became the most economically prosperous country in the Soviet-Eastern camp. The East German people's spirit of hard work and hard work is worth learning from."

"There are many East German employees within Heiyun, and I can see the excellent qualities of the German nation from them; this left a very deep impression on me."

It can’t be said to be very thorough, and some words are difficult to say from an outsider’s mouth; or it can be considered to be reserved. But overall it is still very pertinent; at least there is no perfunctoryness!
