Chapter 64 What foreigners have not done

As soon as Chen Moran's words came out, both Fang Jingyuan and Xiao Yuren were shocked. In particular, Xiao Yuren did not expect his words, which led Chen Moran to run a steel factory.

"Yes, do you really want to run a steel factory?"

In the face of the surprise of the two, Chen Moran nodded very affirmatively.

"That's right!"

While the two were still in shock, Chen Moran continued to talk.

"Exactly speaking, it is to run a steel mill!"

"Steel mill?"

Neither Fang Jingyuan nor Xiao Yuren feel any difference between steel mills and steel mills.

"Wei Yang, do you remember what I said before that factories such as spinning and weaving are bound to attract the encirclement of foreign goods?"

Xiao Yiren nodded. When the two talked deeply, Chen Moran once said, "Temptions are not peaceful, there is no tariff protection, and there is no industry."

"A factory not built by foreigners, goods not built by foreigners"

Chen Moran nodded and smiled, with a mysterious smile on his face.

"I'm going to build a car!"

Car! This is the one Chen Moran found for himself. "Foreigners can't squeeze the road yet." This thing is just the beginning of the whole world.

"Car?"

"Yes, it's the two cars made by Hungarian Li Enshi!"

Chen Moran's tone was very positive. Seeing the surprise in their eyes, he said that there were only two cars in Shanghai. A week ago, Li Enshi took the two cars to Shanghai. When he was driving on the street, the horseless car almost caused a sensation in Shanghai. It was after seeing the news that Chen Moran decided to make it. The car.

At this time, Xiao Yuren and Fang Jingyuan looked at each other and were surprised from each other's eyes. Obviously, they did not expect that Chen Moran chose to manufacture automobiles as the basis for the company's development.

"More than ten years ago, the German Carl? Mercedes-Benz invented the car. Although the car is only a tycoon now, only a few people can afford it. More than a decade ago, due to technical conditions, the automobile industry has not yet formed. However, over the past ten years, technology has been constantly improving. Compared with horse-drawn carriages, cars have too many advantages. In the United States, Germany and other European countries, one car after another has become a fire. It can be said that with the continuous improvement of cars and the development of technology, the trend of horse-drawn carriages being replaced by cars has become irreversible!"

When it comes to cars, Chen Moran seems a little excited. As a mechanical student, he has more or less heard of a saying that "the era of automobile inventors from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century", the steam engine has triggered changes, but the car has changed the world.

"Now, whether it is Germany or the United States, the cars they produce rely on hand-made, so the price is expensive, so only a few rich people can afford to buy cars, but what we want to make is a car that can replace the carriage and make it affordable for everyone, a kind of mass-produced car!"

When saying this sentence, except for the financial empire that brings him wealth, Chen Moran is full of longing for the future for the first time. Ford, once belonged to Ford, and in the near future, this era is bound to belong to himself. People will no longer remember Ford, but only remember him Chen Moran.

"Of course, this is just a long-term dream. Now cars are a pastime for rich people, and automobile manufacturing is also workshop-style. We can only use workshop-style production like them now. However, compared with Europe and the United States, we have an advantage. In China, workers are not It's often cheap, Xuanlin. The highest monthly salary of the workers we are recruiting now is only equivalent to 4 taels of silver. In the United States, this is just a two-day salary. Even the mechanics in the automobile factory may not be able to catch up with the salary of Americans for a week!"

Cheap labor, whether in China in 1901 or in 2011, has always been China's magic weapon, and also Chen Moran's magic weapon.

"Now, the scale of automobile production in the world is not large. After we produce cars, we can even export them directly to Europe and the United States without worrying about their dumping or suppression. What's more, this is still heavy industry. The strength of a country does not depend on how much cotton yarn or cotton cloth you produce, but on your machining. Isn't it? And in the future, the automobile industry will become the economic pillar of this country.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Chen Moran changed his words and directly hooked his car factory with the power of China. In TV and books, Chen Moran knows more or less about the Chinese people of this era. However, anyone with a little insight dreams of the strength of China. In this era, there is nothing. The West is more attractive than a grand blueprint.

Just like a comment that Sun Yat-sen once saw on the Internet, "Sun Yat-sen used an ethereal republican blueprint. As a result, all Chinese people believed that once the Chinese republic was strong, it would be strong, and countless people threw their heads and blood for it. Later, someone used it..."

Of course, after experiencing a hundred years of magnificent blueprints, when Chen Moran began to face the blueprints, he knew that those blueprints were nothing to coax people, but Chen Moran did not mind using those blueprints at this time to make the Chinese people excited, excited, and even willing to suffer, and finally put their silver and tickets. Of course, he also has a personal talent and devotes himself to his dreams.

"Maybe you will think that I am a little exaggerated, but the automobile industry will become the economic pillar of the country, but there is no exaggeration. A car is almost composed of 1,000 to 2,000 parts. The production of these parts will promote the development of relevant industries in China, such as the mechanical manufacturing industry that produces parts and The production of machinery and equipment, and the production of steel needed for automobiles, can also drive the development of the steel industry. Electrical appliances, power, etc. will grow because of the growth of the automobile industry. Highways, insurance, petroleum, rubber and textiles will be promoted rapidly. The development of related industries can provide stability for the political axe. The fixed tax, the same car is still the assembly of scientific and technological achievements, and the demand of industry will further promote China's scientific and technological level.

Chen Moran summed up his words with a slogan known to later generations.

"In a word, 20 years of surpassing the United Kingdom and catching up with the United States, sweeping away a hundred years of weakness! Start with the car!"

What is more attractive than drawing a blueprint? As Chen Mo said, it hasn't been done yet.

Sure enough, when he said this, Xiao Yiren and Fang Jingyuan were stunned, so that they couldn't come to their senses for a long time. They thought that a car could play such a role in the future. In fact, even in this era, how many people can understand the important surname of the automobile industry, or an economic pillar, An important surname of the industry.

Fang Jingyuan, who took a long time to recover, looked at Chen Moran in front of him. He had been repeatedly impressed by the "grand blueprint" constantly thrown by Chen Moran.

"Well... However, according to you, it is very important to make a car, but... but who will make a car in a big China?"

"Me!"

Chen Moran calmly spit out two words and picked up his teacup at the same time.

"I can design cars. When I was learning mechanics, I designed cars."

Perhaps Chen Moran can't design the car composed of more than 100,000 parts in later generations, but the car with only a few thousands of parts in this era, he believes that he can spell it out, not to mention that he has really done it. When he was in school, out of his love for Willis Jeep, he almost made a Willis by hand.

What's more, there is a Hualing Star Kaima parked in the warehouse of Muliaoshan Quarry. Relying on the current technology, it may not be possible to make that kind of cross-generational truck, but it can always provide some technical reference, at least technologies such as electric lights, wipers and tires can always be used for reference.

"And in the future, the engineering school I'm going to build will also open this major to teach them about automobile design and manufacturing, and ask the best teachers in the world to teach them."

At this point, looking at the two people in front of him who seemed to have not come back to their minds and looked at him with longing, Chen Moran was happy in his heart. His words changed and began to pull them back to reality from the magnificent blueprint.

"In a word, now let's do it step by step! Now we will build this orphanage first, then we will build a factory, build another steel mill, use the steel we produce ourselves, build a Huangpu River Bridge, and then build our industrial bank building in the future. When the bank is built and gathers domestic idle floating capital, we can build a car factory.

"Xuanlin, Weiyang, you know, now this is just my idea. Although it is an idea, it will be realized one day. However, it is clear that whether this dream can be realized is like what I just said "chasing Britain and the United States, sweeping away the weak" started from the car. Whether our dream can be realized or not depends on whether these two buildings can be repaired in the shortest time!"

Chen Moran looked at Fang Jingyuan and said, looking extremely serious.

"I know, maybe I don't think it's necessary to cover it so fast. Our China has been weak for nearly a hundred years, and our steps are always getting bigger. Everyone walks at home, and we have to run! Isn't it! What's more, this is a reputation for ourselves!"

"I..."

Facing Chen Moran's eyes, Fang Jingyuan hesitated. According to the normal construction speed, it would take at least half a year to build two such three floors, but now the construction period should be shortened by two-thirds, and there was the complex basement. Suddenly, what he had heard of when he was studying in Germany came to his mind. The case of German engineers repairing the railway during the Franco-Prussian War.

"Maybe there is another way, but before that!"

Fang Jingyuan cast his eyes to Xiao Yuren.

"I need ten days to ask Weiyang to do me a favor."
