Zhuerdian's last words are of course a threat.

In fact, as a British ambassador to China, he does have the confidence to say such things. After all, in the Far East, the British have an absolute advantage, while the Americans are far from speaking.

but……

"hehe."

The only one who replied to Jurden was John's cold smile.

After Juerdian left the villa angrily, John calmed down a little, immediately attracted several important subordinates in the Far East, and then issued a series of orders: in the next three years, he would fully support China's industrial and educational development. He would order the US headquarters to inject at least 50 million US dollars into the Far East Branch of Hunteral Bank to build a large number of factories in China, including textiles, steel, chemicals, machinery manufacturing, and even arms! Some of these industries should focus on development, such as brush making factories that use Chinese bristles, as well as synthetic ammonia factories, etc.; if Hunteral Bank had to fully cooperate with the bank's plan and assist in importing a large number of high-quality and low-cost machinery and equipment from the United States!

For them, John will fully support them.

Fifty million US dollars is definitely an astronomical figure in this era. If John is willing to support a certain force, it can even change the strength comparison of China. Therefore, it is conceivable that if the 50 million US dollars are invested in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, how many factories will be born and how many new schools will be built!

Even if it is as powerful as John, it will not be easy to take out these fifty millions.

It was already 1912, and John's industries in North America were also expanding rapidly. It can be said that while controlling the pulse of history, John strongly ordered his industries to spare no effort to expand, especially several major shipyards, shipping companies, mining companies, trading companies, chemical companies and weapons manufacturing companies. All industries related to war are now taking large-scale loans, desperately acquiring assets, and expanding production capacity.

The speed of expansion has made the American economic community a little scared.

The Hunteral Consortium in 1912 was definitely a real behemoth. Its annual business had already exceeded one billion US dollars, and its employees were as high as hundreds of thousands, and it was still increasing rapidly. However, if it develops at this current rate, it will take less than three years to double the size of the Hunteral Consortium!

Such a situation is actually very dangerous.

The capacity of the US market is indeed expanding rapidly, but it is not large enough to accommodate such a huge thing. As for Europe and other overseas markets, Americans do not have that much influence except America. Who will sell the products produced by the Hunteral consortium? For example, several major shipyards are desperately trying to increase production capacity, and the huge freighters produced will soon fill the Atlantic Ocean's sea surface, and for example, those minerals, chemical products, trucks and freighters, etc., it is really hard to understand...

Anyone with a little common sense knows what the consequences of overproduction are!

The Americans have just recovered from the crisis for less than two years, for fear that the Hunteral Consortium would put them into another crisis. Although it is not yet, everyone knows that if the Hunteral Consortium continues to expand without restrictions, it will sooner or later affect it.

only……

Even if the US president comes forward in person, it cannot dispel John's firm attitude. And now, thanks to the rapid development of other brother companies, Hunteral Bank and Insurance Company have made great benefits, and their scale has become increasingly large, and their influence has even begun to catch up with the Morgan Consortium's financial system...

...Okay, back to the topic.

It is precisely because companies in North America are expanding rapidly that it is not easy for John to pay out 50 million US dollars. Fortunately, pharmaceutical companies have been developing well in recent years, with new industries such as automobiles, agricultural machinery and aircraft companies developing well, and a large dividend is recorded every year. In addition, Hunteral Bank has a strong capital, and it will not be a big deal to withdraw 50 million US dollars.

But even so, John did not intend to use brand new equipment from Hunteral Bank, but had already set his mind on the old equipment of his own company in North America. He planned to update his factory equipment in advance!

The rapid development of many laboratories of the Hunteral Consortium has made this matter a win-win situation.

Among the many companies of the Hunteral Consortium, the laboratories are undoubtedly the most invested in R&D. For example, in terms of mechanical equipment, John invests a lot of money every year to develop the latest power industrial equipment. However, the speed of equipment updates is obviously impossible to keep up with the speed of R&D. After all, the cost is too high. Investment in China is just an opportunity. The recent technology is applied to North America to improve their competitiveness and overall strength. The eliminated equipment can be transported to China. On the one hand, part of the funds can be recovered and the cost of renewal is reduced. On the other hand, it can also meet the needs while reducing the cost of Chinese industrial development...

A kill of two birds with one stone is the best of both worlds.

Of course, this plan was warmly supported by his subordinates. The head of the Far East of Hunteral Bank nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, sir, your suggestion is really correct! The Chinese industry has just started. Although there are many elites who have returned from studying in the United States, the quality of workers is not as good as that of the other side, and there is a big gap in management methods and technical accumulation. The brand new equipment is really not suitable for them. Second-hand ones are a little complicated..."

"Well……"

After hearing this, John's face suddenly turned dark.

However, although it sounded uncomfortable, John didn't say anything, because perhaps John knew better about China's foundation than these people.

but……

"Hmph, let's see it in a few years!"

He glanced at his subordinate with some displeasure, and John said something secretly!

He swore with the soul of the Chinese in his bones that he must let this guy see what the situation will be in ten years! Just like the ten years after China's reform and opening up in the future, from not even having second-hand or third-hand equipment to becoming a world factory, and then creating industrial miracles, how many years have it taken in total?

The earlier you start, the faster you catch up!

If the technology in sixty or seventy years later is equivalent to the level of a doctorate, then the technology in 1912 is at most the level of primary school students. Although China's starting point is very low, far from the day before the future opening up, it is at least much easier from the level of illiteracy to primary school students than from junior high school students to doctoral students?

And after all, China has huge development potential.

Even if John can do too little for the entire country, don’t forget that he sponsors thousands of international students every year, and tens of thousands of them in ten years, and more importantly, these are all science and engineering. In universities, middle schools and primary schools that invest in China, they will continue to cultivate talents in science and engineering in the future!

In this era, this will be a huge force.

You should know that modern education in China is already backward, and among those who go abroad at their own expense or public expense, those who study law, politics and other liberal arts account for the majority. The situation in China is even more serious. Liberal arts students who study grammar and art have the highest number, and they actually reach more than 90% of the total number of students! In contrast, there are very few students studying engineering in universities, agricultural sciences, and there are not even business sciences, and there are very few professors who teach these courses. Only the medicine sciences are slightly stronger, but they are also limited in their goodness.

On the one hand, it is due to traditional concepts, and on the other hand, it is due to the extreme backwardness of industry.

So while Daxing Education, John was building various factories crazily in order to find a way out for international students and college students. Otherwise, even after returning to China or graduation, they could only sigh helplessly that life is difficult and ambitions are hard to fulfill...

It's gone far.

However, China is a big country after all, and is far from comparable to a small country.

The Japanese have been working hard for so many years. Even if they defeated China in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, it was still not worth mentioning in 1912, which is one-thirty of the Americans. And just the two provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, plus Anhui, the territory is similar to that of Japan. As long as they have enough time and a stable environment, they can develop first, which will play an extremely huge role!

only……

"well!"

After sending off his subordinates, John's face quickly became gloomy and he returned to the sofa and sighed heavily.

If there is enough time and a stable political environment, John certainly has the confidence to completely change the fate of this country. But he also knows that the next few decades will be the most chaotic era in China. Although the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions are not as good as the Central Plains, they have also experienced war destruction many times. Therefore, if you want to ensure that John's expected goals are achieved, it may be a very difficult process... (To be continued.)
