Niagara Falls is located at the junction of New York State and Ontario, Canada, which has the most abundant water resources in the entire Great Lakes region and even the United States, as early as 1845, the water turbine was installed on the Great Falls by the Waterway and Manufacturing Company, using 5,000 to 10,000 horsepower, to power many flour mills nearby, many people have calculated the power of Niagara Falls in various ways, and it is finally believed to be about 9 million kilowatts.

Even without Li Mu's intervention, by 1881, the New York State Electric Power Company would build the first hydropower station in the United States on the Niagara River, the status of this hydropower station is disputed, the French believe that the world's first hydropower station was born in France, but there is no physical evidence, so the Americans insist that the Niagara hydropower station is the world's first real hydropower station.

Even if the Niagara Hydropower Station is not the first hydropower station in the world, then the Niagara Hydropower Station is the first hydropower station in the world that can transmit electricity over long distances, and in this sense, the Niagara Hydropower Station can be regarded as the world's first hydropower station with real practical value.

In this time and space, there is no Edison and Nikola Tesla competing for transmission standards, and there is no New York State Electric Company, given that the Horse Electric Company is currently the undisputed hegemon of the United States in the field of electricity, then this honor can only be taken by the Horse Electric Company.

Li Mu means this, since Nikola Tesla is no longer interested in the telegraph, then Li Mu has to find a new toy for Nikola Tesla, so that he can really give full play to the value of Nikola Tesla.

Speaking of value, in fact, even without Li Mu's participation, people like Nikola Tesla cannot be without achievements, if it is gold, it will definitely shine, in another time and space, even if there is Edison's suppression, Nikola Tesla will eventually still stand at the top of the technology chain, becoming the indisputable god in the field of science and technology, Li Mu's existence will greatly shorten this process, will clear all obstacles on the way forward for Nikola Tesla, Li Mu believes that with the support of the Junma Group, Nikola Tesla Tesla must have created more than 700 patents, and as for how much this number will eventually stop, even Li Mu dare not guess.

There's no way to guess, people like Nikola Tesla have gone beyond the concept of scientists in the ordinary sense, just like Li Mu in the economic field, no one dares to predict how much wealth Li Mu can accumulate in his lifetime, because people like Li Mu have never appeared before, and Nikola Tesla is the same.

"Power station-" Nikola Tesla's expression was a little tangled, it seemed that he didn't want to give up his choice, but he couldn't completely ignore Li Mu's request, after all, Li Mu was Nikola Tesla's boss: "I can try to solve the problem of long-distance power transmission, I can try to build a water turbine, in fact, I have improved the current generator, if I am given some more time, I am sure that the improvement will be better-"

A genius is a genius, his way of thinking is incomprehensible to ordinary people, you must know that there is no ready-made large-scale hydropower station in this time and space, so as for the equipment needed in the hydropower station, it should be a blank, even so, Nikola Tesla almost instinctively began to solve the problem, just like Li Mu imagined, maybe when Nikola Tesla said these words, Nikola Tesla already had a model of a large hydropower station in his mind.

It sounds a bit like science fiction, but in fact, according to an interview with Nikola Tesla by a reporter in another time and space, Nikola Tesla is like that, and many times, Nikola Tesla just thinks of inventing something, and the model he wants appears in his mind, and if it is not so, it is impossible to understand Nikola Tesla's achievements.

Around 1898, Nikola Tesla built an oscillator capable of producing artificial earthquakes, and when the frequency was inputted, the oscillator nearly flattened the city of New York at the time.

Then, in 1899, Nikola Tesla created a large number of ball lightning bolts in his laboratory, which was the only time in the world that ball lightning was made in a laboratory, and until the 21st century, no one else could copy Nikola Tesla's experiments.

Two years later, Nikola Tesla built the Worden Crevert Tower for the transatlantic wireless power transfer experiment, note that this is not a small game between a charger and a mobile phone, but across the Atlantic, in fact, Nikola Tesla completed wireless lighting technology before that.

Even with so many rebellious actions, Nikola Tesla still criticized Einstein's "theory of relativity" in his spare time, believing that most of the "theory of relativity" is wrong.

It is precisely because of so many achievements that Li Mu will give Nikola Tesla almost unlimited trust, as long as Nikola Tesla asks, Li Mu will do his best to do it, not only to let Nikola Tesla burst out of all his energy, to obtain more benefits for the Junma Laboratory, but also to benefit all mankind, to put it mildly, not enough America, Nikola Tesla is a real socialist, you must know that in another time and space, when Nikola Tesla ... After Tesla's alternating current defeated Edison's direct current, Nikola Tesla could have become the richest person in the world at that time with the alternating current patent, because just before the advent of alternating current, anyone in the world had to pay Edison expensive royalties as long as they used direct current, and Nikola Tesla's approach was to give up the alternating current patent and let everyone in the world use alternating current excluding royalties, and with this, Nikola Tesla was enough to blast Edison into scum.

"There are many problems, we solve them the same, the world is not perfect enough, more new inventions, new patents, people need a better life, which requires more responsible people to contribute their abilities, and you, just the most capable one, so Nikolai, we first solve the problem of the power station, and then consider the wireless transmission of electricity, after all, before studying wireless transmission, we must first have enough power for experiments." The reason given by Li Mu makes Nikola Tesla irrefutable, in fact, leaving the field of science, Li Mu has countless ways to make Nikola Tesla succumb, but he doesn't want to become the second Edison, such a person is enough to have one in the world.

Li Mu is still a chicken thief, with the good life of the people all over the world to give Nikola Tesla an irrefutable reason, if this does not make Nikola Tesla agree, Li Mu will immediately start to talk about the development and progress of mankind, if Nikola Tesla still does not agree, then it is confirmed that Nikola Tesla is indeed from the Zenith.

Fortunately, Nikola Tesla has ideals, but not to the extent that he is desperate for ideals, and when he realized that Li Mu's suggestion was the best choice, Nikola Tesla immediately agreed.

If you agree, it's easy to do, the next thing to solve is nothing more than the problem of funding and manpower, and this is not a problem at all in Li Mu's place, a wireless telegraph will bring huge returns to the Junma laboratory, even if the current wireless telegraphy technology is not perfect enough, this is enough to make the world crazy invention, think about how much effort the Americans have spent to lay the Atlantic submarine fiber optic cable, and then look at the Pacific submarine fiber optic cable that has been laid for several years, but now it has just been laid to Hawaii The Pacific submarine fiber optic cable, you will understand the meaning of wireless telegraphy, the same as electric lights and telephones, which is yet another invention that can change the world.

Not to mention, the proceeds from wireless telegraphy alone are enough to pay for all of Nikola Tesla's future scientific research expenses, and this is only the first invention that Nikola Tesla came up with.

When Nikola Tesla joined the Horse Laboratory, he signed an agreement with the Horse Laboratory, and the honor of inventing wireless telegraphy belongs to Nikola Tesla, but the patent itself belongs to the Horse Laboratory, and the patent of wireless telegraphy will be authorized by the Horse Laboratory to operate, and 10% of the patent royalties obtained by the Horse Laboratory from the Horse Electric Company will belong to Nikola Tesla himself.

This number will be astronomical in the future, but Li Mu does not plan to do anything about it, this is what Nikola Tesla deserves, and Nikola Tesla's value is not only reflected in wireless telegraphy.

If you change someone, such as the greatest inventor in human history, maybe just a small trick can make Nikola Tesla get nothing, but Li Mu will definitely not do this kind of dry and fishing, it should belong to Nikola Tesla, it belongs to Nikola Tesla, Li Mu will not deduct a penny, think about the greatest inventor, if he had paid the 50,000 dollars promised to Nikola Tesla as agreed, then maybe Nikola Tesla would not have resigned, And then there were not as many grievances and grievances as later.

The income from the patent is what Nikola Tesla deserves, in addition, Li Mu has a special reward for Nikola Tesla, you must know that Nikola Tesla's family is still in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Nikola Tesla has no achievements before, Li Mu gave Nikola Tesla a reward that is not justified, now there is no need to scruple, Li Mu directly instructed Antonio Meucci to bring Nikola Tesla's family from Austria-Hungary to the United States, after that, Li Mu will respect the opinion of Nikola Tesla's family, If they are willing to become American citizens, then the New York Immigration Service will come to provide services, and if they are willing to stay in New York, then whatever is not said, any area, including Battery Park and Central Park, Li Mu will give Nikola Tesla a mansion -

Whatever Nikola Tesla asked for, how big it was.

It should be said that for people like Nikola Tesla, money is actually not very attractive, after all, in the foreseeable future, Nikola Tesla will definitely not be short of money, even in another time and space, in the face of Edison's all-round strong suppression and brainless targeting, Nikola Tesla did not show too strong a desire for money, so that Nikola Tesla in his later years actually died penniless and lonely in the hotel.

After expressing his sincere gratitude to Li Mu, Nikola Tesla returned to Boston with great morale and began to prepare all the technology needed for the Niagara Hydropower Station.

Yes, Li Mu was ready to build the Niagara Hydroelectric Power Station, which was the first investment of the Junma Group in 1878.

Of course, adhering to the principle of benefiting everyone, Li Mu first notified Rockefeller, J· P. Morgan and Andrew Carnegie.

"That's it, once the Niagara Hydropower Station is built, we can send electricity to New York, and the entire New England region and the Great Lakes region, how big is this market, I believe everyone has estimated it beforehand, I don't need to emphasize, I am ready to use the hydropower plant technology to invest in the establishment of Niagara Power, and now, it is time for you to show your sincerity." After Li Mu's brief introduction, the old god returned to his seat, waiting for a few people to make an offer.

It can be said that so far, electricity is still the monopoly of the Junma Electric Company, but in the foreseeable future, this monopoly can not be maintained for a long time, and the arms industry is different, the power field as an important area related to the national economy and people's livelihood, this market is too big, if the Junma Electric Company has been monopolized, then it is equivalent to Li Mu put himself on the opposite side of the entire American capital, therefore, the one who should give up must be resolutely abandoned, and the initiative can not only sell at a good price, And more people can be pulled onto Li Mu's chariot, which will bring more long-term benefits to the Junma Group.

To be honest, Li Mu is not so arrogant as to carry the entire U.S. capital market alone, but if he pulls in Rockefeller, J· P. Morgan and Andrew Carnegie are no problem together, the four of them are tied together, which is enough to represent the American capital power of this era, even in the face of pressure from Washington, Li Mu has the confidence to carry it.

"The Horse Laboratory has completed the technology related to the hydropower station?" Rockefeller has its own laboratory, which is still very sensitive to the technical aspect.

All along, Rockefeller's laboratory is trying to catch up with the goal of the Horse Laboratory, there was a period of time, Rockefeller felt that it had almost caught up with the footsteps of the Horse Laboratory, in order to do this, Rockefeller invested nearly 10 million dollars in the laboratory before and after, now it seems that the gap still exists, and it is getting bigger and bigger, the advantages of the Horse Laboratory in the field of science and technology, even make Rockefeller feel hopeless.

It's a bad feeling, and Rockefeller doesn't like it.
