Chapter 176 The New Future of Fuzhou Shipyard and Navy on
Fuzhou.
What an amazing city it is.
China's first modern steel plant, power plant, steam engine plant and shipyard were born here. It is also the cradle of the Chinese navy and one of the cradles of the modern army.
Hu Chuyuan likes this city and has a special atmosphere.
He took his family to the Fuzhou Ship Administration Yamen again. He still lived on the beautiful Pingding Mountain and the most familiar Ship Administration Yamen.
Since 1884, the Minister of Shipping in Fuzhou has not set up a reading ability. For the time being, Mei Qizhao, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, was allowed to hold the post. The person who really controls here is Hu Chuyuan.
When he visited the old place again, Hu Chuyuan thought of a lot and thought of the large-scale raid launched by Shize Pingdong in Fuzhou.
Shibusawa Pingdong... It's like a disappeared person, and the world has evaporated.
I don't know why, Hu Chuyuan is convinced that this person continues to hide in China nine times out of ten, just changing his identity.
After arriving in Fuzhou, Hu Chuyuan didn't say anything. He just visited the factories in Mawei to confirm whether everything was developing according to his design.
Fuzhou has two modern warship manufacturing plants, one is the old Mawei Shipyard, and the other is Luoyuanwan Shipyard. Although the latter started late, its port and dock conditions are better, and the current scale is larger.
After arriving at the Mawei Wheel Boiler Factory in Fushan Nest, Hu Chuyuan saw a new type of steam turbine.
The scale of this factory is the largest in Asia. It was founded by Fuzhou Ship Administration Machinery and the Heavy Industry Bureau of Jiangnan Commercial Bank. It has six branches and more than 20 large French workshops, each of which is 100 meters long. It can also be said to be the most profitable factory under the Fuzhou Ship Administration Office. It sells more than 600 diesel engines every year. , steam engine and supporting boilers.
In this era, this is a real high-tech industry.
In order to keep it confidential, the new steam turbine production workshop is arranged in a more remote and remote area, surrounded by strict sentries. In addition, the entire Mawei ship administration area is a military important place, and outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering. Information confidentiality is not a big problem.
In the two newly established complementary workshops, two steam turbines more than 20 meters long are being produced. The noise in the factory is very loud, and more than 100 technicians are also busy.
The workshop is equipped with high-power light rows for lighting, which can also facilitate the factory's 24-hour three-shift production when necessary.
When he came out of the workshop, Hu Chuyuan was not in a hurry to say anything.
He has been thinking about it in his heart.
In front of it is the office building of the turbine boiler factory. He took people first to take a rest for a while.
Entering the office, Hu Chuyuan asked the idle people to withdraw first, leaving only Zheng Qingren, the head of the machine ship factory, and the other two chief workers of the shipping bureau, Wei Han and Chen Zhao'ao, as well as Wu Zhengbing, who was transferred by the shipping bureau.
After a moment of precipitation in my heart, Hu Chuyuan and the four people asked, "At present, what is the level of the steam turbine in the world?"
Several people dared not speak for a moment.
It's different now. Hu Chuyuan is a first-class member of the imperial court, and his real power is second only to Prince Gong Yi, the military aircraft foreman minister
