Chapter 1307 Concepts are used to make money (Second update, please subscribe)
This is the biggest difference between Daming and other places.
A good concept can always attract investment from others.
Let's work hard for our dreams!
Dream...it was just a concept in the beginning!
Of course, you can never say that this is money making. After all, a concept is a dream, but it is absolutely different from a dream, because the concept may become a reality.
Not to mention, this is really the first time that a slide show has been used.
Of course, you can't stay at the slideshow stage forever.
At present, Zhao Qihang has limited manpower and material resources. He has no choice but to draw some slides and use concepts to attract investment from others.
From the perspective of an outsider like John, these slides are simply nonsense. They are only on paper and seriously lack practical support.
But on the other hand, he was indeed convinced that nothing else - fighting one against a thousand was too tempting, and in fact the other members of the group wanted to persuade John not to listen to this guy's nonsense.
Also invested in his factory.
With this money, why not buy some shotguns or something?
A shotgun... is actually a sniper rifle, which can kill people at a distance of 800 miles, uh, 800 meters.
It is the perfect combination of Ming's optical technology and rifle technology.
Buy this thing?
But anyone could tell that John seemed interested.
Staring at the weapons on the slide, John thought for a while and said.
"These design plans remain on paper after all. If we want to create a real machine gun, we must make the weapon and then use actual actions to convince us."
"That's right!"
Zhao Qi nodded and said,
"That's right, so the purpose of my coming to you is that I need you to provide a sum of funds to help me purchase some equipment to make this kind of weapon. Of course, my factory can barely produce this kind of weapon now, but
Because the equipment is not complete, there will definitely be some problems with quality.
Mr. John, you only need fifty thousand pounds now, and you can harvest a powerful weapon that can even help you win the war..."
Fifty thousand pounds...isn't that small?
That’s almost 400,000 grams of gold!
In fact, this is also the reason why Zhao Qihang came here - the reason why he brought these slides here was because he wanted to use the Boers' gold to help him expand his factory and produce the latest models.
product.
With a factory and products, he could not only open up the Boer market, but also recommend this weapon to the military.
Of course, he needs to complete the expansion of the factory before that, so that he can meet future orders. But he needs to let others pay for this money.
The Boers... are the most suitable ones to take advantage of, uh... no, investors. Of course, this money is not invested in his factory, but is research and development funds and advance purchase expenses.
It's easy to convince them, just use these slides to convince them. No, it should be said to be using a good concept.
"50,000 pounds..."
John thought for a while, then he cast his eyes on the slides again, and then on Zhao Qihang.
"If you are willing to use your factory as a guarantee, I can invest 50,000 pounds!"
After saying that, his eyes looked at the Ming man in front of him. The reason why he made this request was because South Africa only needs its own arsenal. If the guy in front of him fails, then the money will be turned into a factory.
, they could use his factory to produce rifles and then ship the weapons directly to South Africa.
If successful, then they can harvest a powerful weapon.
No matter how you calculate it, this is a relatively cost-effective investment.
The air in the conference room suddenly became quiet.
"My factory..."
After pondering for a moment, Zhao Qihang suddenly laughed.
"Mr. John, then... we have a happy cooperation!"
He looked at the Boers in front of him and said with a sincere face.
"Soon, you will harvest a weapon that can change the war."
Speaking of this, Zhao Qihang looked at the two people with firm eyes,
"With this weapon, you can not only change the war, but it will also help your cause. I have the same sentiments as you. I sincerely hope that you can defeat the British and guard your freedom..."
In fact, for Zhao Qihang, he really sincerely hopes that the Boers can continue to fight, because only those Boers must continue to fight, only then can he sell more weapons and make more profits.
Of course, those weapons will definitely not be shipped to South Africa in the name of weapons. Although Zhao Qihang is not an arms smuggler, he knows very well that these weapons will first enter the colonies through normal export channels through various disguises, and finally pass through the imperial colonies.
The railway network transports it to Bechuanaland and then to South Africa by some means.
What kind of process is this? He doesn't care. The only thing he cares about is that the war can bring him wealth.
The war will not only bring wealth to Zhao Qihang, but the war will also bring benefits to many people. At least for the Ming Empire, the Ming Dynasty, as the leader of the fire, after the war broke out, many people and people
Businesses all benefit from this.
Although the distant war that took place in South Africa seemed inconspicuous and seemed to be very limited in scale, it was like a drop of lubricating oil, nourishing the industrial machinery of the Ming Empire.
This drop of lubricant does not seem to be very eye-catching, but it is like the first drop of lubricant injected into this industrial system.
In fact, few people realize that as time enters the last decade of the 19th century, the world is moving towards war at a speed beyond people's imagination. All countries in the world, whether strong or weak, are fighting against each other.
Silently preparing for war, everything gradually turned into a real picture and story. Of course, no one can see this story clearly.
In this story, every country is making various preparations. In the Ming Dynasty, in the United Kingdom, in the United States, and in the military factories of almost every country, they have welcomed customers from their own country or foreign countries.
Billions of wealth were quickly transferred to the accounts of various arms suppliers under the banner of national security, and then turned into dreadnoughts and cannons.
Of course, all this happens in obscurity, and to the outside world, they can never see the truth.
But one thing that is certain is that right now, the world from north to south is preparing for the coming war...
