Eight Years

Editor: Atlas Studios

The tank design passed, and Wesley designed armored personnel carriers, assault guns, self-propelled artillery, and so on again, and then began to help the Army form armored units. Assault guns were originally created by Germany saving resources during World War II, but Wesley thought they were very good and very practical with infantry charges, so he made them directly.

Early on, an armored division, a mechanized infantry division, and an artillery brigade were formed to conduct experiments. After that, Wesley didn't care. His goal was the Air Force, which was his focus. Later, he developed a single-winged metal plane.

Wesley had taken out the P-38 and the F4U. The P-38 was a dual-engine fighter with a powerful front-facing nose. It was long-range and fast, and it had the ability to bombard. It was very suitable for the Army. The F4U was more suitable for the Navy, especially for use on aircraft carriers. However, the Navy did not have aircraft carriers now. Such fighters could be used for spatial combat or bombing. They could be used for both.

"Wesley, how should the Navy use the plane?" William Benson asked after seeing the plane.

Wesley smiled and didn't say anything. On the side, Pershing saw a lot of things. Then he said, "The Air Force should indeed form a separate unit. After all, now we see that the two aircraft designed by Wesley are for the Army and Navy, but he said that the Air Force should form an army alone. I think there should be more designs, right?"

Wesley nodded and said, "Yes, there are more designs, but there are some technical problems that haven't been solved yet. At the same time, a lot of experiments need to be done, and some agencies need to cooperate."

President Wilson nodded and said, "Sure, I think we can discuss it in Congress and directly establish an air force, and the most authoritative one is Flying Wesley. Moreover, we need him for the establishment of the new armored forces and aviation units. It's also possible to promote his military rank to that of an admiral. After all, the construction of the army is also an achievement."

Things went unexpectedly well. Wesley became the first Air Force commander-in-chief of the United States, a one-star general.

The next step was to organize the air force. Everything was a blank, but it was not a problem for Wesley. There was no equipment to invent on his own, and he could produce whatever he needed. Anyway, there was plenty of money, and Wesley did not monopolize it. He assigned all the industries that he did not involve, leaving others with nothing to say.

In the following days, Wesley was focused on the formation of the Air Force. He was either working on inventions or staying in the army. Eight years passed. President Wilson, who supported him the most during this time, died, making Wesley sad for once. The current president was Calvin Coolidge, a president who did nothing.

But none of this had much to do with Wesley. He had already been informed that Ruan Ling had been under Wesley's attention. Her mother had been working as a servant, and mother and son had each other.

Originally, Wesley could have helped them in advance, but Wesley did not do so. If she had not had these experiences, then she would not have been able to play those roles in the future. In her ten-year acting career, she had starred in nearly thirty movies, but because of the war, less than ten movies were kept in the end, and they were silent movies. Wesley had actually seen them.

Wesley had seen Ruan Ling's silent movies on the Internet back then. He had also watched two of them. It was very difficult to watch them according to the eyes of the later generation. But in China at that time, this was spiritual food. If the film technology had improved a little, it might have been better. For this reason, Wesley stepped into the film industry in 1919 and directly put on the Big Mac's driving role. He set up cinemas all over the country and at the same time broke the film company's patent monopoly and launched a new movie film that recorded sound.

Then, he bought Hollywood Town and opened up the film patent so that everyone could film as much as they wanted there. Hollywood has developed quite well over the years, and American movies have completely entered the era of great development.

Wesley was pushing this for Ruan Ling. This woman was born for movies. He wanted to create a Chinese movie queen in the United States, but things were not going that fast.

The Navy Holiday came, and the Washington Naval Treaty was officially signed. At Wesley's suggestion, the United States got more of the carrier share without fighting too hard for the battleship, which pleased Japan Ben because the United States had built the military base on his doorstep.

Many parts of the two islands had been turned into air bases by Wesley, and bombers with four engines had been deployed here. Wesley was prepared to defeat these little men directly if necessary.

In early 1925, Wesley set off for China. This time, he came to China on vacation, and he was now thirty-one years old and unmarried. This year, China was in turmoil, but Wesley had no intention of getting involved. He just wanted to find a wife and go back. It was that simple. After all, for China, Wesley had special feelings no matter which universe it was.

When Wesley arrived in China, it was almost Chinese New Year, and Wesley was very interested in this. Shanghai was now prosperous. Although other places were in chaos, it did not delay the prosperity here.

Wesley was staying in a villa prepared by a foreign bank. The location was in the British Concession. "Boss, the person you asked me to pay attention to has been in our sights," said the manager of the foreign bank. He had been here for eight years and had found the person his boss wanted not long after he arrived, but he could only watch and not touch him.

"Well, is the film company established?" Wesley asked casually as he sat on the sofa and smoked a cigar.

"It has been established. This is a film company set up by Chinese people. I bought it later."

"Not bad. Let their director meet her on the street and invite her to film."

"Yes."

"Have you talked to anyone about this?"

"No, I'm the only one who knows." The manager of the foreign bank was sweating a little. This seemed to be a secret that could not be known.

"Give me your hand."

"Ah?" The manager of the foreign bank was a little scared. His boss is not going to kill him, is he? Wesley explained, took the man's hand, and then let Apple start the operation, directly eliminating part of the man's memory, including today's, and Wesley let go.

The foreign bank manager was confused for a moment, then he woke up. "Is the boss satisfied with this place?"

Wesley smiled. "That's right. I heard that the Chinese New Year is coming. I'm here to feel it. Prepare a car for me and people who are familiar with this place. Let them show me around. I'm here on vacation. You can do your own work."
