Go to the Republic of China to engage in industry

Shen Chengrun has just set up a textile factory, and he will not start a bicycle factory in a while, but he still mentions this.

"Ye Yi, I see that many foreign businessmen have come to our Wuxu City to set up factories recently. I wonder if we should build our Wuxu City." Shen Chengrun looked at the construction map of Wuxu City. It is a dirt road.

"How to build, the government should not have such a large amount of funds." Ye Yi said: "Even if there is, it probably won't be approved to use it to build roads."

"What's the matter, you can borrow money from a big rich company." Shen Chengrun said: "Let's not build other places, and those in Wuxu City can wait for those who want to charter bus routes to build roads together.

I think we can first build highways leading to other provinces and cities, open long-distance buses and short-distance buses, and build toll stations at the same time.

The proceeds from the long-distance buses and toll booths are handed over to the factories that borrowed money to operate them, and the operating rights will be taken back after five years.

In this way, the government can get a freeway without paying any money. "

The method is very simple. The buses in Wuxu City operate in this way. It's not that no one thought of it before, but no one took the lead.

"We have convenient transportation here, so naturally many people are willing to come here.

When the economy develops, there will be no need for special government propaganda, and some people will spontaneously want to charter bus routes and build asphalt roads. "

Shen Chengrun imagined a little bit in his mind, "At that time, I guess my bicycle factory will also be set up, and I can change the wheels of these small unicycles into rubber tires, so that they can run freely on asphalt roads and cement roads. Don’t worry about damaging the road surface. When the road is re-planned, maybe within a few years, all the roads in Wuxu can be turned into asphalt roads or cement roads.”

"Yes, there were only trams in the concession before, and many people didn't understand this business. Now you have a bus outside the concession, and it is overcrowded every day. Many people have seen huge profits. If you propose to set up a long-distance bus, the possibility is very high "Ye Yi said: "There will be new income and benefits from the Transportation Bureau, and it will be promoted in an all-round way."

Shen Chengrun nodded, and Ye Yi asked again: "I can help facilitate this matter, do you want to contract it? If there is something, I will tell them and I will contract it for you."

"No." Shen Chengrun said: "I don't want to get involved. There are hundreds of thousands of silver to build such a road. I want to use the money to do other things first."

"OK then."

Shen Chengrun made a suggestion and he ignored it. The main reason was that at this time the news came from the scientific research institute that he had successfully developed a four-color flat gravure printing machine.

This news made Shen Chengrun very happy. According to the historical trajectory, the four-color flat concave appeared only in 1936, but now it was researched by them in 1926, at least ten years earlier, which represents another leading technology.

"Chengrun, this technology is not available in foreign countries for the time being. You can take it out and set up a factory and sell it to foreign countries." Luo Jiuhui said with a smile: "I know you are doing business with foreigners. I think those foreigners who have new technologies will definitely be willing to come back. Make money domestically."

"I want to cooperate with the previous tape-making machine. If we divide it, the research institute will have six and four." Shen Chengrun heard from Mark that tape is also very popular abroad, and many people are doing research.

I believe that it won't be long before foreigners can break through this technology. Once they break through the technology, there will definitely not be a suitable machine immediately, and they have to be produced by hand first. This is the time for Shen Chengrun to sell the machine for sale.

When foreign countries have conquered the technology of making machines, they must have already upgraded in China. If you want the latest machines, you have to find them to buy.

One technology is already at the forefront, are other production technologies far behind?

Shen Chengrun transferred two trucks from the factory to Wuxu Research Institute to pull printing presses. The most important asset of a newspaper office is printing presses.

"Chengrun, where did you get the printing press? I've never seen a printing press like this before." Both Bai Mingyang and Shao Hongjun looked around the printing press. There was a big piece coming from the newspaper office, so it was impossible for them to be there.Besides, the money for the introduction of the machine has to be paid by the newspaper, and these two also need to nod.

"This is the latest printing technology from abroad, right? It's worth a lot of money. Can you get 7000 yuan?" Shao Hongjun asked.

"It doesn't need to be that expensive, it only costs 3000 yuan." Shen Chengrun said.

"3000 yuan?" Bai Mingyang was startled, "The black and white printing machine I introduced before cost more than 4000 yuan. Yours is obviously a color printing machine. It seems that it is a new product that has just been produced. 3000 yuan will be enough. Buy it, Chengrun, where did you find such a conscientious seller?"

Shao Hongjun followed up and said, "It's not that the foreigner named Mark who cooperated with you specially got it for you in order to please you."

Apart from this, Shao Hongjun really can't think of any other reasons. In terms of technology, foreigners have always paid attention to secrecy, and they are surprisingly united in the same hatred, strictly implementing a technical blockade against China.

The previous dynasty was in decline, and the previous two technological revolutions had never been experienced. In the eyes of those foreigners, China is not just a big backward sheep.

If you take out anything casually, it is a rare item in Huaxia, and you can make a lot of money.Even if there are obsolete goods that no one wants in their country, as long as they are shipped to China, there will be fat sheep willing to pay a high price for them.In this case, how could it be possible not to implement a technical blockade against Huaxia.

"Let me tell you, you will never guess the source of the printing press?" Shen Chengrun asked mysteriously.

"Could it be that Ye Yi got it for you." Bai Mingyang doubted.

"If Ye Yi can still say that you can't guess it." Shen Chengrun said: "Even if you think about it this time, you will never think of someone."

Shao Hongjun asked anxiously: "How did you get such a low price? Are you going to say don't sell the lawsuit?"

"Okay, I'll make you anxious." Shen Chengrun said with a smile: "This is produced by our country."

"Produced in our country?" Shao Hongjun couldn't believe it: "What about foreign countries, has it already been there? It's just that it hasn't been sold to our country. Now you got the technology?"

Shao Hongjun asked repeatedly.

Even though Shao Hongjun is very patriotic, he cannot deny the backwardness of his own country in terms of technology.The development of production technology by foreigners for so many years is not in vain. Even if many people of insight have realized the seriousness of the problem and began to devote their time and energy to this aspect, it is absolutely impossible without guidance from the side. Overnight by leaps and bounds.

Everything must have a development process, not to mention technical research.

It's no wonder that Bai Mingyang and Shao Hongjun couldn't think of it.

"Not at all. This printing machine was independently researched and completed by our Wuxu Research Institute, and foreigners do not have this technology." As for how much Shen Chengrun contributed to it, Shen Chengrun did not intend to say it.

"I have already cooperated with the research institute to produce, and we will share 7000 to [-]% in the future. After that, we will not buy printing machines from foreigners, but foreigners will ask us to buy printing machines. In the future, only three to four thousand printing machines will be needed in our country. It costs [-] yuan to ship it abroad, and foreigners still have to buy it with money, just thinking about it makes me happy!"

Bai Mingyang's excited face glowed, as if he independently researched the printing press, "Is what you said true?"

"Of course, how could Chengrun make fun of this kind of thing." Shao Hongjun slapped Bai Mingyang.

Bo Mingyang was not only not angry, but also laughed.

The people who work in the newspaper are all scholars, and they are more clear and sensitive to the backwardness of the country's technology than ordinary people who have not received education.Everyone was happy at the moment, and the cheers erupted from the entire newspaper almost knocked off the roof.

It happened that someone came to place an advertisement, and was taken aback when he saw this scene, "What is the happy event for your newspaper, why are you so happy?"

"Same joy, same joy." The advertiser was taken aback for a moment, not understanding what he could share in the good news with the newspaper. He didn't laugh until the newspaper person explained it to him.

However, it may not involve his business field. Although they are happy that their country finally has a technology that is at the forefront, they are not so excited.

"Today is a good day, and I'll give you half the price." The young master Bai Mingyang became more tempered, and he waived half of the advertising fee with a wave of his hand. Now that person was really happy.

Shao Hongjun and Shen Chengrun knew of Bai Mingyang's excitement, and so did they, and they didn't object.

"Try the four-color printing machine and the black-and-white printing machine I bought recently, and see if it works well or not."

"Okay." Soon a worker turned on the machine and started printing according to the instructions.

As the newspapers were printed one by one, the workers' joy became more and more obvious, "It's easy to use, easy to use, very easy to use, even better than the printing machine that Mr. Bai paid a lot of money for, and it seems that the printing speed is much faster. It is also clearer, especially the color printing, it is really too clear, the color is bright and pure. I dare say that those foreigners will also be moved when they see it."

Shen Chengrun was as happy as he was being praised, "Tomorrow we will print a thousand copies of color newspapers with a color printing machine, also for advertising purposes. The price of color newspapers is the same as that of black and white newspapers, and the price will be restored after a month.

In addition, the price of advertisements on color newspapers has to go up, and cannot be the same as that on black and white newspapers.

There are also notices that can be published, and the newspaper office can print black and white newspapers and color newspapers at preferential prices. "

Now the Republic of China is in the midst of an upsurge in running newspapers. It seems that people who have never run a newspaper are backward, and there are countless big and small newspapers.

Many of these tabloids have little investment, and the main creators will ask big newspapers to help print them if they don't have so much money.

Now that there are more color printing machines in the newspaper, of course Shen Chengrun has to take over the job of color printing. Now that the machines have been brought in, naturally he can't just throw ashes around.

"By the way, let me publish another announcement privately, saying that the Wuxu Research Institute has recently independently developed a four-color plano-gravure printing machine and a black and white printing machine. Those who are interested in purchasing can contact me.

Both black and white newspapers and color newspapers are published, and I will be a person who tries to eat crabs. "

Shen Chengrun paid the advertising fee on the spot, and the steward accepted it with a smile.As early as when the three of them co-founded the newspaper, it was agreed that in order to ensure that the accounts were clear, the three of them were not allowed to withdraw money on the books at will.At the same time, if the newspaper publishes related advertisements, there is no need to pay additional advertising fees, but the three of them need advertising fees to publish advertisements about their private affairs. At most, they can give preferential prices to regular customers.

This has become a habit. Over the past year, Shen Chengrun has published advertisements in newspapers, and every time he settles the accounts immediately, he settles the accounts faster than other advertisers, and never defaults.
