Chapter 603: Chang'an Factory
In the afternoon, four people came to the Chang'an factory.
The Chang'an plant is located in the north of the Bayu River, and the shape of the entire plant is a bit like a thumbs-up hand.
Jiangbei was not developed at this time in 91, and there were farmland dams everywhere.
Now when we talk about Chang'an Factory, everyone will think of Chang'an Bread, Chang'an Suzuki, Ford, and CS, but you definitely don't know the famous Chang'an Factory in history. The registration information of Chang'an factory was established in 1862.
In the year when the Chang'an factory was established, the old ladies of Cixi had just taken power.
Shortly after the end of the Second Opium War, Feng Guifen, a disciple of Lin Zexu, a disciple of Lin Zexu, wrote a book called "Protest at the School of Mansions", which put forward the idea of mastering Yi's skills to control Yi. In 1861, Prince Gong of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, together with Gui Liang and Wen Xiang, played the "Six Articles of the Draft Statute for the Overall Planning", which opened the prelude to the Westernization Movement.
At that time, Cixi had just gained authority, and the conservative officials had a deep contradiction, in order to resist and balance the throne, she supported a group of Western-style cadres who were not in harmony with the conservative officials, the more famous ones were Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, Zhang Zhidong, and Zuo Zongtang.
Zhang Zhidong was in Hubei, and built the Hanyang Iron Works and Hubei Weaving Layout. Many people have probably heard of the name of the Hanyang Iron Works, and the firearms used in the early days of the Kokumeito Party were basically made in Hanyang. Later, the Hanyang plant was taken over by the Chang'an factory.
Zeng Guofan built the Anqing Ordnance Institute, which was the first military factory in China.
Zuo Zongtang established the Fuzhou Shipbuilding Bureau and the Lanzhou Weaving Bureau. The Fuzhou Shipbuilding Bureau can basically be said to be the birthplace of the modern navy, and the famous Beiyang Fleet was born here.
The main thing we want to talk about is Li Hongzhang.
He established the Tianjing Telegraph Bureau, the predecessor of China Post. The layout of Huhai machine weaving was built, which was the predecessor of Huhai Textile Factory.
He built the Kaiping Mining Bureau and the Kaiping Railway Bureau in Luan County, Hebei Province, the Kailuan Mining Bureau is still in production, and the Qinhuangdao Port was also built by the Kaiping Mining Bureau in that year. Kaiping Railway Bureau became the originator of China's railway locomotive manufacturing.
He opened the Shanghai Steamship China Merchants Bureau in Shanghai, which is now the Chinese People's Steamship Corporation and the China Steamship Hong Kong Island China Merchants Bureau. There is a well-known unit under the Hong Kong Island China Merchants Bureau: China Merchants Bank.
In addition to the above great achievements, Li Hongzhang also has an enterprise, which is the Shanghai Marine Artillery Bureau. In 1865, Li Hongzhang was promoted, and the Shanghai Maritime Artillery Bureau moved to Nanjing, renamed the Nanjing Jinling Manufacturing Bureau, which is a bit of an impression, right? What about the Nanjing Jinling Arsenal? At that time, China's largest and most advanced arsenal produced Browning and Maxi heavy machine guns.
In 37 years, Japan occupied Huhai and bombed Nanjing, Jinling Arsenal moved inward, came to Bayu, resumed production in 38 years, and provided more than 3,000 tons of ammunition, more than 300,000 grenades, and more than 500,000 guns of various types in the War of Resistance against Japan.
In 51, the 21st Arsenal was renamed the state-owned 456 Factory, and in 57 it was renamed Chang'an Machinery Factory.
This is the history of Chang'an Factory.
In 58, the Chang'an factory successfully manufactured the Type 46 jeep, which was the first self-produced jeep in China and participated in the 59th National Day military parade.
In 63, the Chang'an factory was ordered to stop production of the jeep and transfer all the technical information to the Beijing Automobile Factory, which is the one with the most production, the widest coverage and the longest use time in the history of New China. It can be said that without this order, the Beijing Automobile Plant would have disappeared long ago, and there would have been any Cherokee 212 later.
Bayu really doesn't have any smooth places, and I feel that everything is sloped, either uphill or downhill.
When Xiaowei and the four came to the gate of Chang'an Factory, the rain had stopped, the sky was still overcast, and the cool breeze was on his face with some wetness. This side is relatively empty, and I feel that the wind is much stronger than the side of the Liberation Monument.
I register with a doorman and come to the factory to the sales section.
The Chang'an factory is much larger than the Xiali factory at this time, and it feels more formal than the Xiali factory in all aspects. However, the factory building and factory area are much more dilapidated than Xiali, and they must be there for years. At this time, domestic state-owned enterprises are not popular, and how high the factory is to spend money.
Receiving several people was a section chief of the sales office, surnamed Yang, wearing blue overalls, with dirty marks on his face, who had just come out of the workshop.
"Hello. What's the matter with you?" This Section Chief Yang should be from the north, and he speaks without a local accent.
Xiaowei said: "We came from the northeast, Fengtian, Liaodong. We set up an industrial and trade company and wanted to sell cars, so we happened to pass by Bayu and came to have a look. There are also quite a few Changan cars on our side, and I would like to ask if we can sell them. ”
Section Chief Yang asked, "Which unit are you from?"
Xiaowei said: "Personal. We are the first private group company in Liaodong. ”
Section Chief Yang was stunned for a moment. At this time in 91, in most of the inland areas, people generally feel that the image of the private sector is self-employed, the master, the second dealer, the speculation of these, rather holding the state-run broken bowl than the self-employed gold bricks, feeling that there is no future and no money, that will scold the children are that you don't study hard and you have to be self-employed in the future.
Probably out of the subtle habits of the Chinese, Section Chief Yang said: "I don't know if you have touched cars before, we will cost 50,000 or 60,000 yuan for this thing, no credit, you have to mention dozens of units at a time, understand? Besides, we have sales in the northeast, don't you know that the material company sells cars? You go back to your local material company and ask, there should be a market for selling cars, go there and see." ”
Xiaowei said: "I know, I don't want to be the exclusive agent, they sell theirs and I sell mine, isn't it good for you to have more cars?"
Section Chief Yang frowned, looked at his watch and said, "I'm a little busy at the moment, so I won't talk to you." Xiao Huang, Xiao Huang, come, accompany these guests for a while, explain to them, there is something wrong with me. He waved his hand and called a girl, and he got up and left. This girl looks like she has just started working.
Xiao Huang walked over, smiled at the four of them a little stiffly, sat down and said, "Hello, what are you doing?"
Xiao Wei sat up straight and licked his lips, and said, "We want to sell your car, it seems that this Section Chief Yang is not very happy." ”
Xiao Huang said: "Buy a car, buy a car if you want to buy it, and the price is the same." ”
Xiaowei said: "Sell, not buy." ”
A tall, thin man with gray hair walked in, and Xiao Huang stood up and shouted, "Hello Director Jing." ”
Director Jing nodded and said, "What about Xiao Yang? Didn't you just say that you came to this house?"
Xiao Huang said: "I don't know, Section Chief Yang said that he had something to do with me to accompany these guests." ”
Director Jing glanced at Xiao Huang strangely, turned his head to look at Xiao Wei and asked, "What are you doing?"
Xiaowei said: "Hello Director. I came from Fengtian and wanted to sell your car in the Northeast, but Section Chief Yang didn't seem to be very happy, so he left without saying a few words, and let this girl accompany us. ”
The director was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you want to sell our car?"
