Chapter 58 Boss Yang's explanation did not dare to slack off
The five million dollars I got from the Germans seemed like a lot, but if I really wanted to use it, it would not be enough.
Tiangong Smelter, for a long period of time, will be Yang Weiping's research center engaged in the development of various materials required for various engines, and all the equipment purchased must be the most advanced in Europe and the United States today.
Hong Kong, a British colony, does not have the so-called equipment embargo and technical blockade. As long as you have money, you can get any kind of equipment and instruments.
But to turn the Tiangong smelter into a secret materials research center, five million dollars is too little.
Previously, Yang Weiping also planned to apply for a patent for the second-generation aluminum-lithium alloy technology, and then circle a large amount of cash, but afterwards he thought that this new alloy is related to the development of aerospace and national defense of major military powers, and he really wants to apply for a patent publicly to ensure that it will become a key target locked by the intelligence departments of the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France as soon as possible.
Once he is targeted by the "007s" of the British MI5, he will definitely find out all about his net worth! Although he has now obtained a legal British-Chinese identity file and passport at a high price of $100,000 by bribing Lawrence, the director of the Kowloon Police Department, if the British military intelligence department really wants to investigate, it will definitely be full of loopholes, and he will not dare to think of the consequences.
No matter what, I'm afraid of the word serious.
During this time, as long as Yang Weiping thought of this, he would have a chilling fear.
The technical renovation project of the smelter is about to be completed, and the import of standard aluminum ingots from Europe alone will cost a lot of money.
A technological innovation on equipment is, to put it bluntly, just an idea. Even if it is an agreement with EDF, it is not an invention that shocks the whole world.
Taking this idea to make a deal with EDF will not only solve the immediate need, but may also be used as credit in the future to pay a few more batches of goods on credit from the French.
Anyway, you and I are willing, and we are all happy, so why not be happy.
EDF's quick response was expected by Yang Weiping.
The other party agreed to Yang Weiping's conditions, but authorized Pratt to sign a cooperation agreement with Tiangong Smelter on behalf of the company, and stated that if the technological innovation was not as advanced as Yang Weiping said, Yang Weiping must compensate all the assets of Tiangong Smelter to EDF free of charge.
Yang Weiping, who had long been aware of this, signed an agreement with Pratt very happily.
The electromagnetic stirrer is not complicated, the related electronic components and raw materials can be bought in Hong Kong, the smelter has ready-made mechanical processing equipment, and it is quite easy to find a few skilled technicians and process it according to the design drawings provided by Yang Weiping.
After signing the agreement, Yang Weiping pulled a list of materials, handed it to Xiangyang, and asked him to go to the city to find Wang Xiangdong, purchase all the materials back, and let Wang Xiangdong come to the smelter by the way.
Wang Xiangdong's work efficiency is quite high, and it only took two days to buy all the things on Yang Weiping's list, load it in a pickup truck, and send it over.
Yang Weiping also took care of the late weather, so that the goods were unloaded in the Seiko workshop, and he personally sampled and inspected the batch of materials sent by Wang Xiangdong.
This Huo Qiufang, Xiang Rong, Wang Xiangdong and others couldn't help, so they could only watch from the sidelines.
Looking at Yang Weiping's serious and focused demeanor, Wang Xiangdong felt nervous inexplicably, for fear of smashing the errand entrusted to him by Boss Yang.
It wasn't until about half past ten in the night that Yang Weiping finished sampling and inspecting the last electronic components.
Gently placing the multimeter in his hand on the workbench, Yang Weiping raised his head and smiled at Wang Xiangdong with satisfaction: "Yes, all materials meet the testing standards, Brother Xiangdong, thank you for your hard work." ”…,
After Wang Xiangdong heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, "It's not hard, it's not hard, it's just running errands, Boss Yang, you are satisfied." ”
Yang Weiping smiled and nodded, turned to Xiang Rong and said: "Ah Rong, please go and inform Zhou Guangfu, the director of the original finishing workshop of the smelter, let him work hard, take people to process according to the drawings overnight, if there is anything you don't understand, come to the office directly to find me." ”
"Yes, boss. Xiang Rong Lingming hurriedly walked out.
"Let's go, Brother Xiangdong, go to my office, I just happen to have something to discuss with you. Yang Weiping stretched out his hand and patted Wang Xiangdong's arm, motioning for the other party to follow him.
"Boss Yang, if you can afford me, please don't call me Brother Xiangdong anymore, I can't afford to be a brother!" Wang Xiangdong followed behind Yang Weiping, and said as he walked: "If you have something, you can call my name, Wang Xiangdong and Adong are fine." ”
From the gate of the Tiangong smelter, Wang Xiangdong found that the factory had changed greatly, and the guards had arranged four official security guards.
Especially when he saw Tu Zhiqiang, Zhang Shufang and other team leaders and instructors, he was even more shocked in his heart. In his eyes, how could he not see that Yang Weiping had brought a batch of veterans from the mainland who had killed people and seen blood to Hong Kong.
It seems that this young fellow is much bigger than he imagined.
"Okay, then I'll call you Adong from now on. Yang Weiping was not pretentious, he turned around and nodded with a smile.
When he came to the factory director's office, Yang Weiping politely beckoned Wang Xiangdong to sit down on the sofa, and then personally made him a cup of tea, which made Wang Xiangdong a little flattered and quickly got up, took the teacup with both hands, nodded and thanked him again and again.
"Adong, how are you getting along with your old brother during this time?" Yang Weiping returned to the large chair behind the desk and sat down, took out a cigarette, threw a cigarette to Wang Xiangdong, and then asked casually while lighting a cigarette with a lighter.
"Boss Tuoyang's blessing, with your money to let me accompany those old brothers to eat, drink and have fun, I basically connected with the brothers who had a good relationship with me back then. Wang Xiangdong gently put down the cigarette in his hand on the coffee table, stood up and replied respectfully.
"How many people are there, are they all reliable?" Yang Weiping's eyes suddenly condensed, leaned forward slightly, and asked solemnly.
"In the three halls of Yuen Long, Tuen Mun, and Central, I can pull at least more than 400 people over!" Wang Xiangdong replied confidently: "The old brothers of the past are now being severely suppressed by a group of young people in the new position, and the eldest brothers of the three halls are all newcomers, acting arrogantly and domineeringly, with no one in their eyes, and the business of oil and water is all controlled by their cronies, and the bloody and desperate fighting and killing have made those old brothers rush to the front, obviously treating them as cannon fodder!"
They had long suppressed resentment and anger in their hearts, and they were very dissatisfied with the boss. After I took the initiative to contact them this time, before I could speak, they all clamored to push me to the top and go to Brother Nan for justice. ”
"Brother Nan you are talking about, is it Zhang Hainan, the boss of Dongxing Society?" Yang Weiping asked thoughtfully.
"Well, it's him!" Wang Xiangdong said with a little resentment: "Zhang Hainan has already taken care of Dongxing social networking to his son Zhang Yaoyang three years ago, and he himself retreated into the background, and he didn't care much about the affairs of the club, and let his son toss around, saying that it is now the world of young people, and we old guys don't work." ”
"Young people, it must be hot-blooded and impulsive, and arrogance is also a reasonable thing. Yang Weiping smiled indifferently.
"If you continue like this, Dongxing Club will be finished sooner or later!" Wang Xiangdong said with a wry smile and a sigh: "I also came out to find out that several old brothers who had a good relationship with me back then all committed crimes, fell on the criminal record, and were closely watched by the strips, and they usually didn't dare to show their heads easily, so they didn't go to visit the prison." After knowing this situation, my heart is much smoother. ”…,
