New Warlords 1909

Hua Fei knew that when the First World War broke out in the near future, the price of steel would rise sharply.If Qiuxin Factory accepts foreign shipbuilding orders at this time, it will undoubtedly cause huge losses.But Hua Fei can't tell everyone that a world war is about to start, everyone should stockpile raw materials and beware of bankruptcy crisis!

In addition, Deep Blue Shipping is in need of sea-going ships, and the rich water does not flow to outsiders, so Hua Fei ordered 2 cargo ships with a displacement of 2 tons and [-] cargo ships with a displacement of [-] tons for Qiuxin Shipyard. The contract price is >: SGD.

Originally such a contract order, other people can do it for them.But looking at the whole of Shanghai, there are only a handful of large-scale commercial and national heavy industries.Regardless of whether it is Hexing or Qiuxin, Hua Fei has equity, so he has to come and see for himself, not to mention that he still has some opinions and needs to tell Zhu Zhi in person.

The order of 300 million Singapore dollars is definitely an unprecedented large order for Qiuxin Shipyard.The cooperation with Huafei not only allowed Qiuxin Shipyard to overcome the biggest crisis, but also allowed the development of the shipyard to quickly enter a new journey. How can Zhu Zhiyao be unhappy?

Compared with Jiangnan Shipyard, the scale of Qiuxin Shipyard is somewhat lacking.There are only a dozen factories, less than [-] employees, and only one dock.After signing the contract, Zhu Zhiyao introduced Hua Fei enthusiastically while leading Huafei to visit the shipyard, "Mr. Hua, after the shipyard received such a large order, one dock is not enough! We plan to expand a dry dock. Sir, I paid a [-]% deposit in advance, I'm afraid I really don't have any money left for this plan!"

"If you have financial difficulties, you can apply for a loan from the Pacific Bank. For the development of national industries, I will ask the bank to give preferential treatment and support!"

"Mr. Hua...!" Zhu Zhiyao was speechless for a while.If there was some avoidance or speculation about Hua Fei before, the respect Zhu Zhiyao and others have for Hua Fei at this moment cannot be described in words.If it wasn't for the help of Yinhe Investment before, I am afraid that Qiuxin Shipyard would have given the equity as compensation to the customer.Although the bank invested in asking for 20% of the shares, Zhu Zhiyao could afford this payment.

In that case, even if Galaxy Investment wanted a 40% stake, he couldn't refuse it!

Of course, Hua Fei can understand Zhu Zhiyao's mood. As he integrates more and more closely with the times, Hua Fei can deeply understand that in Shanghai where foreign capital is rampant, no one who can successfully gain a foothold in the business world is not easy.In Chinese history, these first- and second-generation national capitalists have made great contributions to the industrial foundation of the entire China.

If history is not full of ups and downs, if history gives China a stable space for development, after a hundred years, who dares to say that Chinese enterprises will not occupy the top [-] in the world?Who dares to say that Chinese businessmen will not become legends in the business world?

"Mr. Zhu, the last time Qiuxin Shipyard was in trouble because of the sharp rise in the price of raw materials such as steel! Now the price market for raw materials such as steel is stable, but no one dares to say that such a thing will not happen again. I don't know what precautions Mr. Zhu has. Countermeasures?"

"The second time?" Zhu Zhiyao was taken aback, "Is there any news from Mr. Hua?"

"It's always better to take precautions before they happen!"

Zhu Zhiyao breathed a sigh of relief, if that incident really happened a second time, it would be a nightmare!Even if Maanshan Iron and Steel can still provide steel at a low price, the quantity is always limited!Now 20.00% of the shares in Qiuxin Factory belong to Xing Kong Investment Group under the name of Hua Fei, so if there is news, Hua Fei will not deliberately conceal it.

Having figured this out, Zhu Zhiyao said calmly, "To be honest, now that Nephew Lu Xian's steel plant has been put into production, the situation of cutting off the supply of steel like not long ago should not happen. But as a businessman, it is always right to avoid risks. ! I will ask the purchasing department to reserve some steel products in case of changes!"

"Steel is an important raw material. Now Mr. Zhu has to expand the shipyard and reserve raw materials, so funds will inevitably be tight. And even if some steel is reserved, it is only to deal with changes to a certain extent, but not to avoid risks to the greatest extent!"

"I wonder what Mr. Hua's opinion is?" At this point, Zhu Zhiyao also heard Hua Fei's subtext.

Hua Fei smiled, and while walking towards the machine workshop of Qiuxin Factory, he asked, "Mr. Zhu, does he know the steel purchase agreement I signed with Hanyeping Company?"

Zhu Zhiyao was shocked, and immediately said, "I only heard that Han Yeping signed a sales agreement of [-] tons of steel with a big businessman in East China. factory, why do you want to go abroad?"

Hua Fei smiled and didn't answer, but said, "The [-]-ton iron and steel agreement between me and Hanyeping Company is as follows. Within one year from the date of signing the contract, Hanyeping Company shall provide [-] tons of steel to our Global Trading Company. If the steel products cannot be delivered on time and in quantity, causing our company to suffer losses, Hanyeping Company will pay me ten times the contract price in compensation."

Zhu Zhiyao was shocked not only in his heart, but also on his face.The outside world only knew that there was this transaction, but they didn't know the details of such a transaction!Ten times the compensation, Zhu Zhiyao seemed to have guessed what Hua Fei meant.

"I might as well tell Mr. Zhu that Global Trading Company is very satisfied with the cooperation with Hanyeping Company for several months, and is negotiating with them to renew a five-year supply agreement of 50 tons of steel!"

"Five years, 50 tons!" Zhu Zhiyao couldn't figure it out at all, and couldn't see Hua Fei's intentions.You must know that Han Yeping's annual steel output is only 10,000+ tons.Before the emergence of Maanshan Iron and Steel, its steel production accounted for almost 90.00% of the total steel production in the Republic of China.

In Zhu Zhiyao's mind, the reason why Hua Fei ordered steel on such a large scale was for his own use besides exporting it to make money!Because Huafei's several arsenals and large railway construction plans require a large amount of steel!

Just when Zhu Zhiyao was considering whether to imitate Huafei and adopt this novel order pre-order to solve the supply of raw materials.Seeing Hua Fei striding towards a machine that had just been built, he said excitedly.

Is...is this a diesel engine? "

"This is indeed a diesel internal combustion engine, but we have improved it so that it can burn kerosene at the same time!" Zhu Zhiyao chased after it strangely, not understanding why Hua Fei was so curious about this diesel internal combustion engine.

"Great!" Hua Fei praised, and while looking around the diesel engine, he said, "This diesel engine is produced by you? How about the horsepower?"

"We imitated it, and the horsepower is only 20 horsepower. This is a machine for test production. We are developing a new internal combustion engine with a horsepower of [-] horsepower. We plan to participate in the Panama Pacific International Exposition next year!" Zhu Zhiyao didn't understand Hua Fei at all. Why are they so excited? Nowadays, more than a dozen machine factories, including their Qiuxin Machine Factory, Xinxiang Machine Factory, Lichang Machine Factory, etc., are copying this kind of internal combustion engine, and many factories have successfully copied diesel engines with different horsepower.

I remember that when Wei Zijing introduced the power plant of the U-31 submarine, he mentioned that the U-31 uses a German Germania diesel engine with a horsepower of 1850.The U-19 uses two MAN diesel engines with a power of 2 horsepower.In this way, there is still a big gap between 1700 horsepower diesel engine power and foreign countries!

But it doesn't matter, this is already an unexpected surprise for Hua Fei.Originally, he thought that his internal combustion engine company had to start from scratch, especially the training of technicians, which was even slower!As we all know, diesel engines not only have higher thermal efficiency than gasoline engines, but also have higher power, lower fuel consumption, and better economic performance.More importantly, its safety is much better than gasoline engines.

From this point of view alone, the diesel engine power unit equipped with the German submarine is superior to the gasoline unit of the British B-class submarine.

With the diesel engine, Huafei's tractor and agricultural machinery factory, train locomotive factory, automobile factory and a series of plans can be put into construction soon.And after making a high-horsepower internal combustion engine, Hua Fei will install it on the warship.It will greatly increase the range and speed of warships.

"I want to be a shareholder, I want to be a shareholder of this factory!" Hua Fei said very directly to Zhu Zhiyao, "Separate this workshop and set up a separate internal combustion engine factory. I want to increase investment, attract more technical talents, and speed up the development of this factory. develop!"

Zhu Zhiyao, an old man who has been in the mall for a long time, can't keep up with the leap of Hua Fei's thinking.Mr. Zhu only felt that the cobwebs were tangled in his brain, and he didn't know how to answer.

"Mr. Zhu, Mr. Hua has never asked you for anything. This matter should be regarded as Mr. Hua owes Mr. Mr. Zhu a big favor. Please, sir, please grant me!" Hua Fei pleaded excitedly.

"What's the matter with Commander Hua!" Zhu Zhiyao hurriedly said, "If it wasn't for Commander Hua, the new factory would have been in the French pocket. Commander Hua's kindness to the Zhu family is to give the internal combustion engine workshop to Commander Hua. A certain one is not stingy either. Not to mention asking you to buy a share, Commander!"

Hua Fei's abnormal reaction scared Zhu Zhiyao a lot.Immediately promised again and again, after all, this factory is not worth mentioning compared to Hua Fei's help in saving Qiuxin Machine Factory!

"Well, please ask Mr. Zhu to recruit more private capital. I want to build the largest and most advanced internal combustion engine factory in China! This matter must be done quickly. As for the funding issue on my side, Mr. Zhu, please don't worry! I have decided , the initial investment will definitely not be less than 100 million silver dollars, and I want to introduce imitation German MAN diesel engines!"

"Mr. Hua, what do you think?" Compared to Hua Fei's impatience, Zhu Zhiyao quickly calmed down.He smiled calmly and said, "Zhu will hold a banquet at home tonight, and will invite many celebrities from the business circle in Shanghai. It will be an honor for the Zhu family if Commander Hua is here! Commander Hua will come in person, I think friends in the business world will definitely invest heavily in the stock. Hua Commander's appeal is definitely many times stronger than Zhu's!"

"If that's the case, don't bother me!" Hua Fei smiled happily.It wasn't because of Zhu Zhiyao's praise, but just when he was worried that he didn't have the manpower to build a new extremely important internal combustion engine factory, a new direction made Hua Fei find another reason.

After discussing some details with Zhu Zhiyao, Hua Fei said goodbye and left by car.After all, he didn't get enough sleep last night, and he needed to make up for a few hours.Otherwise, it would be bad if he dozed off at someone else's banquet.

After the self-government is formed, many industries must be taken over by the government.For example, Jiangnan Shipyard and Dongfang Machine Tool Factory.Although he has invested a lot of funds for expansion and upgrades, should that part of the funds be his personal, or should it belong to the autonomous government?It is indeed incalculable!Therefore, even if the self-government gives up part of the equity and adopts a government-business joint venture, he can only get a part of the equity at most.

What's more, Hua Fei can't take these assets as his own, so the attack of public opinion is absolutely unbearable for him.In his view, the government-business joint venture is the best way, where the government holds the controlling stake and supervises it, while the business side operates and manages it.Mutual benefit is the long-term solution.

As for military factories such as Jiangnan Arsenal and Nanjing Arsenal, Hua Fei also plans to propose a government-business partnership.But the premise is that the government has absolute control, and the business party must be national capital.This official refers to the autonomous government and the military.Those coal mines, iron mines, etc., are all temporarily owned by the government, and mining operations are implemented in accordance with the promulgated draft mineral resources law.

At present, the autonomous government and Steward Liu are the biggest point of contention with Wuhu Arsenal, Hefei Weapon Repair and Ammunition Factory, Ma'anshan Iron and Steel Factory, Wuhu Cement Factory, and Tongling Copper Smelter Factory, these new factories invested by Huafei.The self-government insisted that the funds for these factories were built by Hua Fei using the government's guarantee and issuing construction bonds.Representatives of the Hua family, such as Steward Liu, insisted that these funds were the original assets of the Hua family, and that the funds raised from the construction bonds were used to build railways and roads!And even if the construction bonds were used, the self-government had not yet been established at that time, and the nominal ownership of the bond funds could not be attributed to the self-government!

The two sides were arguing endlessly. Although on the surface they refused to give an inch and were very lively, they were still quite rational in private.In order to avoid suspicion, Hua Fei did not participate in this negotiation with any members of the Baath Party.

There are three points that are absolutely non-negotiable, that is, the ownership of Pacific Bank, the ownership of Galaxy Investment Company and Star Investment Group.As well as the newly established Global Trading Company and Deep Blue Ocean Shipping Company, both of which are newly registered companies by Hua Fei in accordance with legal procedures.

As for the Wing Loong Aircraft Factory, Diamond Engine Factory, Lewis Machine Gun Factory, etc., since they are located in the concession and are joint ventures with foreigners, the autonomous government and Huafei automatically avoided this topic, and no one mentioned it.

A contradiction is.How to balance public and private weights.From Hua Fei's point of view, Pacific Ocean Bank.Outside of several companies such as Galaxy Investment.Other factories were built with bonds and loans.Even Pacific Bank has grown rapidly.It has nothing to do with the aid of bond funds and the use of banknotes.

But Hua Fei accumulated wealth.Most are used to continue to develop or expand the army.If there is no military strength as a guarantee.Everything develops.even his life.I'm afraid they are all extremely fragile.If you set the nature of his assets.Undoubtedly bureaucratic capital.It is also the largest bureaucratic capital in the autonomous region.

In Hua Fei's heart.It rejects bureaucratic capital!Because once people have power and money in their hands.He cannot but use the political power to seek more benefits for himself.National government to some extent.becomes a tool.

`Private division is extremely necessary.Otherwise, the problem may not be revealed at present.But wait a long time.It will become the biggest position for other enemies and public opinion to attack him.For Hua Fei.The greatest convenience of private assets is the freedom of use.The transfer of many funds.There is no need to go through the government's procedural approval.Don't waste time.The risk of leaks will also increase.

And after the separation of public and private.Many expenses and expenses.It can all be transferred to the government.Reduce the financial pressure on Huafei.So that he can concentrate on using the funds at hand.Make a big deal hard.

Because it is in Hua Fei's "Golden Mountain Project".Many investments or speculations.It is unimaginable to outsiders.If you take the government financial path.Even Hua Fei's Baath Party controls the parliament.I am afraid that it will also cause opposition from other parties.Thereby causing a lot of inconvenience.

Although centralization is efficient.Act vigorously.But because power is not restricted.So a bad decision.The consequences are also extremely serious!And even if Hua Fei adopted a series of clean government supervision measures.The rape cases in various places are still happening continuously.And due to the lack of administrative experience personnel.Local governance and development are lagging behind.These are Hua Fei's considerations in deciding to choose a coalition government.Not only immediate considerations.There are more experiments on the country's political system and long-term future considerations.

Coalition governments can address a number of shortcomings of centralized dictatorships.And it is more in line with public opinion.The public opinion against him has been greatly reduced.support from all parties.Mass power.The speed of construction in all aspects has been greatly accelerated.But nothing is perfect.A system of affairs requires the approval of the government.It will inevitably affect efficiency.Due to the advanced consciousness of Hua Fei's "Golden Mountain Strategy".It must seem unbelievable to many people.Would not risk agreeing.That would greatly miss the opportunity.This is also one of the reasons why Hua Fei agreed to separate public and private as soon as possible.

Sitting in the car.Hua Fei's thoughts were mixed.Politics is far more complicated than military affairs.And in terms of his character.He also dislikes getting involved in this vortex very much.It's just that people get to a position.Many things are involuntary.
