After a few years, Heslin once again extended an invitation to his old friend, hoping that Erwin could go to Nyasaland University to continue his research and realize his dream.
The last time Heslin invited Erwin, Erwin firmly refused. Even though the bread price in Berlin had risen to 100 billion marks at that time, Erwin did not waver and firmly believed that Germany could stand up again and stand tall in the world.
The forest of nations.
Now Erwin has finally wavered. Erwin still believes in Germany's potential, but the Germany of Erwin's dream has become farther and farther away from Erwin.
No one bothered Erwin all morning, as if Erwin had been forgotten.
This was not the case before. As the dean of the Department of Physics at the University of Berlin, Erwin was very busy at work. His office door was always open, and there was an endless stream of people visiting. Erwin never had a moment to spare.
It was a good thing that no one disturbed him, and Erwin could use the rare leisure to study his beloved physics, just like he had done when he served during the World War.
Erwin went back home at noon and handed Anne the money sent by Heslin. When he returned to the office in the afternoon, Otto Hahn, who had just become the director of the Wilhelm Royal Institute of Chemistry, was waiting for him.
"Good afternoon Otto, good news or bad news?" Erwin was ready to accept both good news and bad news.
Otto Hahn tried to force out a sad smile, which was uglier than crying.
"Okay, needless to say, I understand, so now is it time for me to leave?" Although he had already been mentally prepared, when this moment came, Erwin was still heartbroken.
Looking at the familiar office, Erwin sighed, found a cardboard box, and prepared to sign something of his own.
"Erwin, what are you going to do next?" Otto Hahn suppressed his sadness and watched Erwin put his things into the cardboard box one by one.
In fact, there aren't many, mainly some books, some manuscripts, and two photo frames on the table.
"I don't know, maybe I will go back to Austria, or Ireland, or southern Africa, who knows-" Erwin is an Austrian who received a double PhD in physics and mathematics from the University of Vienna.
Even Erwin didn't realize that he had actually subconsciously considered southern Africa as one of his next destinations.
"Going to Austria is not the best choice. Alice also wants to return to Austria. I am trying to convince her - why don't you make an explanation to the investigation committee, so that you can stay at the University of Berlin and continue to serve -" Austria
Thor Hahn was in a sad mood. Alice was his assistant, and the situation was slightly different from Erwin's.
Erwin was actually of decent German descent. He was treated as a Hebrew and asked to leave his job only because of some remarks that sympathized with the Hebrews.
Alice Meitner is a true Hebrew. She obtained a doctorate from the University of Vienna and was the second female doctor in the history of the University of Vienna. Later, Alice came to Berlin and worked under the leadership of Otto Hahn.
He worked in the chemistry laboratory and was Otto Hahn's most important assistant.
In 1926, Alice became Special Professor of Experimental Nuclear Physics at the University of Berlin.
Unlike Erwin, Elise had now been dismissed from teaching, but she was allowed to continue their experiments on neutrons with Otto Hahn at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute. Now as the situation in Germany changed, Elise
His life was threatened and he had to leave Germany.
In response to some of Erwin's remarks, the University of Berlin established an investigative committee. At this time, Erwin actually only needed to make an explanation to the investigative committee and repent of some of his remarks, and Erwin could escape this disaster.
Those claims that Erwin was a Hebrew simply do not hold water.
"I didn't do anything wrong, why should I repent?" Erwin smiled bitterly. Today's Germany has no room for calm voices. Even people like Erwin and Alice can't live alone.
Let alone Erwin, the head of the physics department of the University of Berlin, in any other country, would have been treated as a guest.
Alice's achievements are equally amazing. Together with Hahn, she discovered the rebound of atomic nuclei during radioactive decay, and also discovered a series of radioactive isotopes. In 1917, Alice also discovered the isotope of protactinium, protactinium-231, together with Hahn. It can be said that
All Otto Hahn's achievements during this period are inseparable from Alice.
This was just the beginning. In 1939, Alice used the equation E=mc2 in Einstein's theory of relativity to calculate that each fissioning atomic nucleus releases an energy of 200 million electron volts. Alice thus laid the foundation for the atomic bomb and atomic energy.
It is said that when Alice told Niels Bohr the results, Bohr said: "Ah, we are so stupid."
We here definitely do not include Alice.
"In Germany now, does it matter whether it is right or wrong?" Otto Hahn also felt confused about the future.
But unlike Erwin, Otto Hahn has not been affected yet.
Watching Erwin pack his things, Otto Hahn took out an envelope and gently put it into Erwin's box.
"No, Heslin sent me some money, so I have to thank him in person." Erwin has already made a budget, and he will definitely go to Southern Africa. Five hundred rand is enough for Erwin and his family to go to Southern Africa.
.
"So you are going to Nyasaland University?" Otto Hahn was a little surprised. Heslin also invited Otto Hahn, but Otto Hahn did not agree.
"Why not? At least at Nyasaland University, I can continue my unfinished research, and Southern Africa will not exclude me as a 'Hebrew.'" It was then that Elwin realized
, going to southern Africa may be a good choice.
Thanks to the promotion of Southern African movies, everyone is now aware of the openness and tolerance of Southern Africa. Even during the World War, the Germans in Southern Africa were not particularly targeted. At first, Roque's decision caused controversy, but now people finally understand
Realize how wise Rock's decision was.
"Indeed, Southern Africa is also a good choice - wait for Erwin, if possible, take Alice with you to Southern Africa, Austria - is not the best choice either." Otto Hahn had an idea,
After Mustache came to power, Germany's calls for the annexation of Austria became louder and louder. If Germany's annexation of Austria became a reality, Alice would still have to leave Austria.
For his most important assistant and closest friend, Otto Hahn hopes that Alice can stabilize as soon as possible.
For scientists, a stable environment is extremely important. If there is no meal left, no matter how great the scientist is, he will not be interested in working.
Southern Africa is far away from Europe and will not be affected by war. Nyasaland University is also able to provide these professors with a stable life. Heslin is a good example. Although Otto Hahn rejected Heslin's invitation, the correspondence between them never
Interrupt.
"Okay, if Alice is willing, let her come to me. I will stay in Berlin for a few days-" Erwin made up his mind.
When Erwin made up his mind, Rock had not yet realized that a wave of benefits was coming, and it was a buy-one-get-one-free kind.
It was already 1929. On March 4, Roosevelt was sworn in as President of the United States at the White House. At this time, Roosevelt had not yet introduced any policies, and the U.S. stock market began to rebound, showing people's huge confidence in Roosevelt.
Roosevelt did fulfill his promise. After taking office as president, Roosevelt began to rectify the financial sector. Goldman Sachs was among the first banks to obtain special licenses and reopen.
Relying on southern African capital, Goldman Sachs is one of the few banks in the United States that is still solvent.
On March 5, the day after Roosevelt was sworn in, the United States announced a halt to gold exports.
On March 10, the United States announced a ban on private storage of gold and gold securities.
On April 1st, US corporate debt was abolished and paid in gold.
On the 16th, the United States issued $3 billion in banknotes guaranteed by national securities, devaluing the U.S. dollar by 40.94%——
With the introduction of a series of policies, the U.S. economy stopped declining, the financial industry gradually stabilized, foreign exports began to increase, and the power of government intervention in the economy gradually emerged.
The increase in the export of U.S. goods will have a certain impact on the export of goods in southern Africa. Rock finally realized Roosevelt's courage.
It is indeed courageous. When the federal government of Southern Africa issues bonds, it only dares to issue 120 million US dollars. The United States starts printing money and prints 3 billion U.S. dollars. You must know that the total government revenue of the United States last year was only 1.9 billion U.S. dollars, which is equal to
As a result of Roosevelt's words, the U.S. government directly received nearly two years of income.
If Hoover had had this courage, he probably would not have lost to Roosevelt.
With money, there are more ways to improve the economy.
In this time and space, the gems of Southern Africa are at the forefront. Hoover did not dare to copy the work of Southern Africa. Roosevelt had no psychological barriers at all. With the implementation of a series of financial policies, the U.S. banking industry began to recover, and Roosevelt's approval rating also gradually increased.
, if the U.S. economy recovers a little, Roosevelt's support rate will be higher.
Then copy it.
Big copy, special copy!
Southern Africa implements large-scale infrastructure construction.
The United States also needs to implement large-scale infrastructure construction.
Southern Africa is building reservoirs on the Orange and Zambezi rivers, and the United States is building reservoirs on the Colorado River——
Yes, this reservoir is the famous Hoover Dam in another time and space.
In this time and space, Hoover was ousted before construction began, and the name of the dam will definitely have to be changed. It may be called Roosevelt Dam in the future.
Not only were these policies proven to be effective, but even those policies that were ineffective, such as the Civilian Conservation Corps, Roosevelt also copied them without error.
Policies that don't work in southern Africa might work in the United States.
