Beiyang reactionaries

As well as non-stop promotion of knowledge in science and industry.

There is also the development of national industry.

Because among the vigorous "anti-imperialist" movements, the most common one is to reject foreign products and support domestic movements.Under such a movement, foreign goods have been hit hard in the Chinese market.In particular, British and Japanese businessmen, which have always been the most powerful, have been hit the hardest, giving China's national industry a huge opportunity for development.Including the Swedish company that monopolized the Chinese match market before, was defeated by Liu Hongsheng's match company.The British and Japanese merchants with strong strength in China's refined salt market were directly suppressed by China National Chemical Corporation and withdrew from China's refined salt market.

In other aspects of the textile industry, the flour market, including the clothing market, and paper, foreign products are also losing ground.It's not because their products are not good, let alone because their products are expensive. They were completely defeated by China's "anti-imperialist" wave.The market they left behind was filled by national industry.Over the past few years, national industry and commerce have developed tremendously.

The development of its own industry and commerce has a huge boost to the Chinese economy.

How much is it good for China to import other people's products.However, the development of China's own national industry will use a large number of China's own workers and create a large number of jobs.

More importantly, the development of these industries will drive the development of the city.

And the development of the city drives more industries.Need more electricity, more water, and other services, and urban development.

Once the city develops, it needs cement, it needs steel.

There will be a tertiary industry that serves these workers.Moreover, after these products are produced, they will be transported to all parts of the country for sale, so there will be a demand for transportation.

Transportation needs to be developed.

Transportation construction will drive a large number of industries.Investment after demand will have a sufficient rate of return.The government will also have sufficient returns for investing in transportation construction in areas with developed industries and businesses.Therefore, although China's own national industry is the development of light industry, the benefits to the Chinese economy are amazing.

But there are also big disadvantages.

kidnapped the government.

Duan Xun set off a wave of "anti-imperialism", public opinion has been rising, radical students have been mobilized, and the people's party has higher and higher expectations for Duan Xun.Duan Xun told these students and young People's Party members that they should study with the goal of "the rise of China", which ignited the enthusiasm of the students and greatly inspired patriotism.These students and young party members are easily surrounded by such enthusiasm. A large number of them want to join the army, and a large number of them accept the government's arrangement to work at the grassroots level.

But all the same, their enthusiasm picked up.

But they have demands on the government.

They despise the government's weakness.

So waves of public opinion put pressure on the government.The government is required to solve the problem of the concession as soon as possible.Now that Duan Xun has lit the fire, he cannot ignore these public opinions at will.Including voices within the BJP party.

Therefore, although it is very likely to offend the United Kingdom, it is still decided to push it hard.

Express your attitude in the negotiations with the United Kingdom.

If Britain does not give a clear answer for a long time, Duan Xun will really do it.

"how?"

"The Ministry of Commerce just received a telegram from the Ford Motor Company of the United States. The Ford Motor Company of the United States stated through our consulate in the United States that they want to build a factory in Asia. They originally chose Japan, but the situation in Japan is not good recently. So they want to set up a factory in our country. Ask the Ministry of Commerce some questions."

"American Ford?"

"Yes. They hope to set up a branch factory in our country. They will use Model T, which sells very well in the United States, to produce it in China as their production base in Asia."

Wang Yongjiang came to Duan Xun in a hurry.

car.

The development of the automobile industry is already included in the industrial plan.The Ministry of Commerce has signed a contract with Germany and has begun to introduce German automobile technology and machinery and equipment.

Of course, what the Ministry of Commerce wants to develop is trucks.

Mainly to solve the transportation problem.

Of course, another reason is that the automobile industry is a complete system and a highly centralized leading industry.If the automobile industry develops, the supporting metallurgy, tire, and glass industries will all have to develop.How many upstream and downstream industries will be driven.

But I did not expect to receive a telegram from the American Ford Motor Company.

"Prime Minister, this is the information on the American Ford Motor Company."

Duan Xun took it.

Ford.

This is a big name, and it will be the world's top automobile group 100 years later.But Duan Xun doesn't know much about the history of Ford Motor, he just knows a general idea.

However, after reading the materials, Duan Xun has a deeper understanding of American industry, and once again has a deeper understanding of the strength of the United States.

why?

The Model T produced by Ford Motor is currently the world's highest-selling car and the fastest-produced car.Since Ford launched the Model T in 1908, it has produced more than 20 million vehicles in less than 1000 years.Ford, a company, has sold more than 1500 million cars in the United States from its birth to the present.

More than 1500 million vehicles.

What is the number.

Now in China, how many cars can there be in the whole country, it is estimated that it is difficult to exceed [-].And it's all imported.This also includes many trucks that China received from the defeated country Germany after the end of World War I.

But look at the United States.

Ford alone sells more than 1500 million vehicles in the United States.

so good.

This is strength, this is industrial strength.

"What do you mean?"

If Ford Motor enters China without any restrictions, then China's passenger car market will be completely taken over by Ford.China is poor, but China is big and has a large population.

The great development of China's industry and commerce in the past few years has also produced many rich people.There will be more millionaires in the future.After all, China has a large population and a large market in the future. It is hard to know how many rich people will come out of labor-intensive industries alone.

The current sales price of the Ford Model T in China is about 1500 US dollars, which is about 4000 silver dollars when converted into silver dollars, and about 4000 yuan when converted into the just-issued French currency.

This is a large number for ordinary people.At present, the annual salary of rickshaw pullers in Shanghai is difficult to reach 60 yuan, including the annual salary of many factory workers.But for many high-income earners, it's really not a big problem.

In the past, many foreign compradors had a monthly salary of several hundred yuan or thousands of yuan. It was not very difficult for them to buy a car.Not to mention those rich people.

The passenger car market has a bright future.

Just give it to Ford?

Always feel bad.

"It should be supported, and it should be strongly supported."

Wang Yongjiang spoke.

Said: "Prime Minister, this is a good thing, a very good thing. What I gave the Prime Minister is just a simple information, and I have more information about Ford Motor in my hand. According to the model of Ford Motor's assembly line, there is no one in the world Automobile companies are compared with Ford Motors in terms of production efficiency. Because of this, Ford Motors can be sold at a low price, but the profits are very high. Currently Ford Motors are sold in Asia, and there is no rival. Last year, Japan imported two We imported more than 3000 Ford cars in China last year. The market for Ford cars in the entire Asian region, including Nanyang, should be around [-]. But this is only now, and I believe that the Asian auto market must be The prospect is bright, and sales of [-] vehicles a year should be considered."

"If Ford Motor's factories in China can produce [-] cars a year, then how much steel and tires will be needed, and how many industries can be driven. And the Prime Minister has always believed that the development of my country's oil industry is too slow? There is no demand Of course it is slow. But once the demand for oil increases and the price of gasoline rises, then we can vigorously develop our oil industry.”
