Chapter 1118: One factory against one country (first update, please subscribe)
After the Manchu Empire of the Aisin Gioro family was overthrown, the family fled to India.
The Ming Empire increased its investment in China, from providing loans to support its currency reform and industrial construction to providing assistance to help it strengthen its army and navy.
The Ming Dynasty officials and the private sector were very interested in investing in China.
And joint ventures are not uncommon. There are many light factories such as cotton mills in China, all of which have Daming Capital.
But the joint venture proposed by Cheng Donghai still surprised Pan Zhijun. After all, this is an investment!
"Brother Denian, this is an investment of tens of millions!"
"So what if it's tens of millions?"
Cheng Donghai pointed at "Long Bo" with a smile and said.
"Funds are not the most important thing, the most important thing is technology. At present, the daily output of the largest iron-making blast furnace in Europe and the United States is 100 tons, while the "Longbo" is 450 tons. The blast furnace is being overhauled on the 13th. Our technicians are conducting a complete overhaul of the blast furnace.
The transformation of the orientation will effectively increase the output. It is expected that after it is put into production again, its daily output will exceed 550 tons, and its annual output will be 200,000 tons! And these technologies were banned from export by the empire in the past, that is, to you..."
Turning to look at Pan Zhijun, Cheng Donghai smiled.
"Because the Ming Dynasty and China are countries with broken bones and connected tendons, the empire will agree to issue export licenses. After passing this village, there will be no such store! One stove top and one country! Like the Austro-Hungarian Empire
The annual output of Western countries cannot compare to such a blast furnace!"
In such an "integrated alliance", the Anglo-Saxons won the First World War, defeated the Erdezi, won the Second World War, defeated the Third Dezi, won the Cold War, and allowed the disintegration of the Great War
Mao Zi.
A China that has initially completed industrialization and a China with a modern army will surely become the Ming Empire's greatest support in the future world war.
But economic interests are not the most important, what is important is integration!
Not only the United Kingdom and the United States, but also Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, the so-called "Five Eyes Alliance". This "Five Eyes Alliance" is not only relying on the Anglo-Saxon people who have the same culture and race.
The two have formed a close alliance, and what is inseparable between them is the economy and finance. It is an "economic community" in which both prosper and suffer.
What is this world comparing to?
It’s steel!
As for countries like Italy and Belgium, their annual output... is not as good as that of China. Just like Italy, a poor imperialist. I don’t know if there is imperialism now, but its steel output is only a mere 10,000 tons. It is absolutely
It is the floor among those imperialist countries.
"If we can develop like this for ten years, China will almost be able to complete its initial industrialization in ten years!"
Only then will China have the opportunity to regain everything it has lost. What is lost on the battlefield must be regained on the battlefield. This is an eternal truth in the world.
Their economies influence each other and blend with each other. There is me among you and you among me. This close alliance will not be changed by the changes of the times, nor will it change due to the change of government. Because both sides are very
It is clear that once they turn their backs on each other and lose support for each other, they will suffer unbearable losses politically and economically.
The Ming Empire does not mind exporting advanced technology to China through joint ventures to help China achieve industrialization. Of course, in this process, the empire's industrial and commercial enterprises and the banking and financial circles can also obtain very generous returns.
When Emperor Zhu Da received the news of the steel plant joint venture agreement signed between Imperial United Steel Company and Huaxia, he, like others, couldn't help but sigh.
It must be said that the war promoted and promoted the industrialization development of China to a great extent.
And the Ming Dynasty is also working hard. Unlike the Americans who rely on women to knock on the door of Britain, under the leadership of Emperor Zhu Da, the Ming Empire was realized through the "Ming Yuan", and the way to achieve it was very simple, nothing more than investment.
Well, borrowing, of course, joint ventures are also one of them.
A strong China is in the interests of the empire. For this reason, the Ming Empire was also generous to China when it came to issuing export licenses. Of course, this generosity was based on a joint venture.
In fact, the Roman Empire is only slightly stronger now than it was in history. Even if China can achieve unification, China's industrial scale is likely to be close to the level of the Roman Empire. After all, the Kingdom of Heaven has also been engaged in foreign affairs in recent years, Ma'anshan
Ironworks in Ningbo, shipyards in Ningbo, various factories in Hangzhou, Suzhou, etc., the foreign affairs affairs done in Tianguo may not be as good as those in the north, but they are not bad at all!
Once the Liaodong Iron and Steel Company, with a total investment of 18.27 million yuan, is completed, it will make China one of the world's steel powers, second only to Ming, Britain, the United States, France, Germany, and Austria. This is not an enemy of one factory.
One country! In fact, China's steel production is now second only to Russia, far exceeding that of Italy and other countries.
Preliminary industrialization is actually the establishment of a relatively complete industrial structure. The output of steel exceeds one million tons. It can produce various mechanical equipment and various weapons from rifles to warships. According to Emperor Zhu Da's vision, it is almost
It is equal to the level of Russia at the same time in history, and the plan is almost successful.
In fact, this is a bit exaggerated. Although the annual steel output of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is not large, it is still more than 500,000 tons. One iron-making blast furnace is 200,000 tons. What about two? Plus Li Guoyi, China’s steel output
But it surpasses Austria-Hungary.
However, in this era of steel, steel is the foundation of industry! With the steel industry as the foundation, we can develop other heavy industries and lay a solid foundation for the next development.
"One factory is the enemy of one country!"
"After everything stabilizes, it's almost time to support their unification!"
After complete reunification, Ming Dynasty will further increase its support to China, not only in terms of industrial and economic support, but also in military terms to help it train a modern army.
After all, in Emperor Zhu Da's plan, the Ming Empire and China may be two countries in the future, but their economies are highly tied, their interests are consistent, and the finance and industry of the two countries are integrated.
This is why they dare to face any other challenger in the world - because no ally is closer than them!
Of course, in the 1880s, this alliance was still being formed. The first step in a journey of thousands of miles had just been taken. The brides of American millionaires had just married into Britain, and the capital circles of the two countries had just reached out to join forces through such marriages.
each other.
In a word, the integration of finance and industry will eventually form the integration of Ming Dynasty and China, and this integration will also make the China Alliance invincible in the future world.
On the other hand, China has indeed made considerable progress in recent years, whether it is industrial or economic, or even technologically.
And by sucking the flesh and blood of the defeated, the Anglo-Saxon Alliance became stronger and more closely connected.
However, this community is secret and not even known to the outside world. In fact, they have been inseparable ever since the daughters of the new American rich married into the families of the old British aristocrats.
Just like the United States and the United Kingdom, through hundreds of years of investment and joint ventures, the financial and industrial sectors of the two countries have long been inseparable from each other, and no one can live without the other.
And this is also the only opportunity for China to participate in the last wave of colonial carving up in the world. Otherwise, there will be no chance.
Thinking of this, Emperor Zhu Da walked to the table again, then turned the globe vigorously, and finally pressed his finger on the globe, looking at China on the globe, he said to himself.
"When the time comes, if you wait another ten years, the time will be almost mature..."
