383 Difficulty Nirvana

Every time a dog is slaughtered in a righteous manner, it is a scholar who has a negative heart.

This sentence both pokes fun at culture and praises ordinary people.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Whenever the life and death of the country comes, educated scholars will know how to choose a tree to roost, and a gentleman will not stand under a dangerous wall, while ordinary people will often burst out with simple patriotic enthusiasm and use

His passionate defense may never have paid attention to his own country.

This may be a bit taken out of context, but throughout history, those famous traitors are often scholars.

In original history, after the end of World War I, defeated Germany was subject to harsh restrictions.

In the liquidation process of the Allied Powers, all Germans who participated in World War I must be punished, including the initiators of the war, the German royal family, and the participants who aided in the evil, those large German companies.

There is no need to discuss whether it is aiding the evil. After all, the Allies are the victorious side and they can interpret World War I as they like.

This result is obviously not so pleasant for the Chinese people.

The Kaiser was forced to abdicate, and large military-industrial enterprises in Germany were dismantled, including the Krupp factory that produced artillery, Rheinmetall that produced guns and ammunition, and the Wesel shipyard and Germania shipyard and Vulkenwerk that produced submarines.

As well as the Kaiser shipyard, the BMW factory that produces aircraft engines, the Augsburg-Nuremberg Maschinenfabrik AG that produces diesel engines, etc.

Of course, these industrial giants did not disappear after they were dismantled. Some of them were converted to civilian use, such as Rheinmetall; some rebuilt their production lines and rose rapidly, such as Krupp.

Regardless of whether it was converted to civilian use or reconstructed, they all remembered the humiliating history and supported the Nazis wholeheartedly.

Like Friedrich, the only job of many Krupp people in their lives is to serve Krupp, become part of this huge factory, and become proficient in their own jobs.

It is precisely because of the existence of these parts that Krupp has grown into a military industry giant.

Perhaps because of the skills of these skilled workers or engineers, they can still survive well without Krupp. However, when Krupp is forced to face the fate of being dismantled, the Krupp people can still feel the pain deep in their bones.

pain.

what can i do for him

This is a question everyone asks themselves.

Human beings are the most contradictory creatures in the world. Perhaps three months ago, when problems arose in their lives, these workers took to the streets to strike and demand higher wages. But when the factory they depended on for survival was forced to be dismantled,

These are the same people who stand up and are willing to risk their lives to defend their right to work.

In other words, it should be the right to survive.

When survival is threatened, it is understandable that no matter what people do.

As a result, the workers who gathered at the entrance of the Krupp factory were excited. They made loud noises and rushed towards the convoy, as if they were going to start a riot.

The guards protecting the convoy lined up to meet them, but they had little momentum and retreated step by step as the workers advanced.

It is precisely because of the army's incompetence in fighting that the armistice agreement was signed and the current situation arises. The soldiers really have no confidence to face the workers who work hard to support them.

In fact, if it weren't for their duty, the soldiers wouldn't even leave their barracks.

The soldiers cannot face the world calmly. Although the military has not yet admitted defeat, it is obvious that both the German government and the public place the responsibility for the defeat on the army.

The reasons for Germany's defeat are very complicated. On the one hand, it does not have strong allies. On the other hand, it overestimates its own capabilities and underestimates the capabilities of its opponents.

It is obviously unfair to blame all the reasons for the defeat on the army, but no one spoke for them except the Crown Prince who had just escaped from France.

Under such a premise, when the soldiers faced the angry expressions of the workers, their eyes were obviously wandering, which made them have no deterrent effect and their actions were even a little weak.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Christopher asked Gustav, the current head of Krupp, to come forward.

Gustav was a diplomat before, and Kaiser Wilhelm II personally arranged his marriage to Bertha, the granddaughter of Krupp founder Alfred, in order to better control Krupp.

Gustav is the current head of Krupp. It is obvious that he has high prestige among the workers. When Gustav came forward, tens of thousands of people at the scene fell silent.

His factory was about to be dismantled, but he had no choice. Even though he, the owner of the factory, had decided to give up, the workers in the factory spontaneously organized themselves to protect the factory. This fact made Gustave helpless. calm.

Gustave looked around at all the familiar things, and after a while he said in a deep, almost choked voice: Calm down, my brothers, this won't solve the problem.

Sir, talk to them again and we will find a solution. Some workers are crying and begging.

We cannot watch the factory being demolished. Anyone who dares to have such an idea will have his head smashed. Someone is prepared to use force.

Mr. Diplomat, just because you didn't create this factory yourself, you can't remain indifferent to it.

Gustave, you traitor is being yelled at.

It cannot be said that Gustav has no prestige, just because many people have served Krupp for a lifetime. They have already started working for Krupp before Gustav joined the Krupp family. Even their ancestors have been working for Krupp. Bob works.

In the eyes of those veterans, Gustav was an outsider.

Mr. Friedrich, please select some workers' representatives and we will hold a closed-door meeting. Gustav's goal is clear.

Even in the face of insults, Gustav still did not lose his temper, and his self-restraint was indeed good.

Ok sir, but those people cannot enter the factory until the results are out. Friedrich also has a clear goal.

Even before the Lanfang delegation arrived at the Krupp factory, rumors about the Lanfang delegation’s goals had already spread, and several versions emerged.

It could be said to be neglect, or it could be said to be deliberate connivance. Anyway, Gustav did not come forward to explain and clarify the purpose of the Lanfang delegation, so various versions of rumors continued to ferment.

If you cannot enter the factory, then the meeting cannot be held in the factory.

This is not a problem. As a giant enterprise, like the Renault factory, Krupp also has its own hotel, so the meeting was held in the hotel conference room.

The current shortage of supplies in Germany can be seen from the furnishings in the hotel conference room. The flowers in the middle of the conference round table are still in full bloom, but the decoration and wallpaper on the walls are a bit old, although if you don't look carefully, you can't tell that they have been carefully repaired. There are traces of it, but it is only repaired rather than renovated, which in itself is proof of shortage of supplies.

Not renovating does not mean that Krupp is more frugal. In fact, at the level of Krupp, they do not need to fiddle with those mysterious things to whitewash their corporate culture. Only Japanese people who have no confidence like to fiddle with those things.

.

In fact, the quality of German products and Japanese products is different, but German products give people the impression of precision, while Japanese products give people the impression of shrewdness. The difference between them is thought-provoking.

To sum up, Lanfang Company will acquire the Krupp factory, form a new Frank company, and set up a factory in Daqing, the Grand Duchy of Lanfang, Corsica, France. In the conference room, Long Chengxuan, who once studied in Germany and is proficient in German, expressed his views on this

The acquisition was explained.

In addition to Christoph Gustav Friedrich and everyone from the Lanfang delegation, there were also more than a dozen worker representatives from the Krupp factory. They were said to be workers' representatives, but in fact they belonged to various departments within the Krupp factory.

Managers in the production and R&D departments.

What, what? The worker representatives must be workers. Stop being ridiculous.

Workers also have classes. Christopher, who has worked all his life and has retired, will definitely earn more than a young man who just joined the factory. And if we look for worker representatives from the factory, managers have inherent advantages because of their abilities and scope of functions.

Daqing is the Balikpapan oil field in Borneo.

The Dutch East Indies has been consigned to the past, and the names of places like Balikpapan, Sulawesi, Kalimantan, etc. will definitely have to be changed. Places with Chinese place names themselves, such as Surabaya Coconut City Batavia and other places, will continue to

Use Chinese place names.

Because there are oil fields in Balikpapan, Daqing became Qin Zhiyuan's first choice. The Daqing in another time and space was now called Anda County. Not to mention oil, there were not even a few villages there.

Frank Company is a newly established company. As you can tell by its name, it is a company with three backgrounds: Lanfang Krupp in France. The Chinese meaning of this name may be a bit confusing, but the French spelling will not cause any ambiguity.

.

After hearing Long Chengxuan's explanation, Christopher and others showed no expression on their faces.

No matter how wonderful the prospects described by Long Chengxuan are, it cannot change the fact that Krupp has changed hands.

In the future, Frank Company will return to Germany at the right time to rebuild Krupp in Germany. Therefore, in order to preserve technical capabilities and skilled workers so that work can start smoothly by then, workers in the Krupp factory can now choose to join Frank

The company can choose to work in Corsica or Daqing. For these workers who join Frank Company, in addition to their own salary, they will also receive a business trip allowance as additional compensation. Long Chengxuan

Regardless of whether Christopher and the others were listening, they were busy promoting the new Frank Company.

Regarding this part, Christopher and the others listened more carefully because it involved their own interests.

The Germans do have excellent discipline. During Long Chengxuan's introduction, no one tried to interrupt. This is not to say that Christopher and the others have no objections to Long Chengxuan's words, but it is basic courtesy and respect.

For those workers who are unwilling to join Frank Company, we have prepared a sum of cash for them. Of course, if you don’t want cash, you can also choose food, clothing and other daily necessities of equal value. Please refer to the prices of water and water products four years ago. As a reminder, food is required.

Clothes are more cost-effective, because the mark will definitely depreciate in value next. Long Chengxuan ended his introduction with a reminder.

No one asked questions immediately. Christopher and the others looked at each other, obviously hesitant.

Well, now that you all know about our Frank Company, I suggest that we adjourn the meeting temporarily and continue after an hour. Zhang Tianyun, who has a deep understanding of human nature, stood up and spoke in French, with Long Chengyuan serving as simultaneous interpreter.

Of course, this is possible. Christopher and the others also need time to evaluate the sincerity of Frank Company and the pros and cons of these terms.

Well, I have some brochures here. You can take a look. These are some of the benefits of our company, which every employee can have. Zhang Tianyun lost no time and handed out a large stack of beautifully printed brochures.

So far, the communication has been good.

To be continued.
