0415 Old Browning

President Meng said to Xuan Yuewu: "Scientists must be seized, especially these scientists who are not valued in the United States, and they must try their best to network, and all the equipment that the United States has now, especially the basic equipment, will be bought!" The more the merrier, and let people buy as much as you can! There are also folk handicraftsmen, have you followed my request to snare them? ”

Xuan Yue Wu Xing said: "Yes, I visited all the famous handicraft masters in New York, and according to your meaning, they offered a high price, and many people hope to go to Danzhou, but if there are too many people, it will be divided into many batches." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Moreover, the situation formalities are also a big problem. The technical secrecy of large enterprises is very strict, and there are many manufacturers who focus on independent research and development. I looked at their manufacturing level, I didn't expect that many of the technicians in the handicraft workshop are many times stronger than even the most powerful technicians in Tianjin, if I don't come here, I don't know that the industry will be like this? ”

Xuan Yuewu's excitement, in the expectation of President Meng, there was almost no industry in the Qing Dynasty, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and the Fuzhou Shipbuilding Bureau, as well as the Tianjin Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, are simply babies, how can they be compared with adults?

President Meng also likes to see Xuan Yuewu so happy, which shows that Xuan Yuewu's vision has grown, and a large number of people are needed to invest in industry and technology, which is not something he can do alone.

President Meng nodded and said: "Don't worry about these for now, I believe that as long as I get the official diplomatic qualification of Danzhou, I can reach the direct transportation line from the United States to Danzhou!" You just try to get it! If you find this Professor Nikola Tesla, you will make a meritorious service! ”

Xuan Yuewu was strongly affirmed by President Meng and was also very excited, "President, among this batch of manufacturers, there is a gentleman named Browning who is very famous, but the firearms he independently developed are only circulated in the black market and have not been taken seriously by the military!" ”

When President Meng heard Browning's name, he almost jumped up with joy, "Brother Yuewu, you are good, you even found Browning?" ”

John Moses Browning is a famous American light weapons designer, John Moses Browning and his father John Jonathan Browning Sr., and brother John George Browning have successfully designed and developed as many as 37 kinds of weapons such as pistols, rifles, light and heavy machine guns and large-caliber machine guns in their lifetimes. Among the many achievements of Browning firearms, the classic weapons products that have been recited for posterity include: M1911/0.45 pistol, M1918/0.30 automatic rifle, M2/0.50 heavy machine gun and 9mm caliber high-power pistol.

John Sr. Jonathan Browning ran a local gun shop.

John Moses Browning worked as a teenager in his father's gun workshop.

This firearms workshop was unexpectedly caught by Xuan Yuewu.

Of course, President Meng has heard of Browning's name, and he has watched a lot of TV, and the Browning brand is basically synonymous with modern firearms, what does it mean to poach this family? Of course, President Meng knows that even if the development of firearms needs to be backed by an industrial base, President Meng also believes that among the talents in the current reserve, if there is a genius like the Browning family, it should be able to create many miracles in the future!

If finding Nikola Tesla is a surprise to President Meng's industrial base, finding the Browning family is to bring a surprise to President Meng's military base, although there is no need to ask about the degree of secrecy of military technology in each country, but in an open country like the United States, the control of civilian firearms is not strict, and the weapons shops that make guns can be placed on the street, and it is really not difficult to find a group of mechanics!

President Meng didn't meet the Browning family in person, all handed over to Xuan Yuewu to deal with, on the one hand, he has money, on the other hand, he is thirsty for talent, and President Meng is willing to spend money to recruit people, it's just too easy, President Meng allocated a budget of five million dollars to Xuan Yuewu and the American station, and when it runs out, it will be added immediately!

What is the concept of 5 million dollars? The tax revenue of the United States in this era for a year.

In this way, a large number of technicians in various industries were constantly snare by President Moe, absorbing about 10% of the intermediate technicians near New York! Young, skilled, are willing to go to Danzhou, this is a way to make a fortune, because as long as you sign a contract with Klinsmann & Co., pay half a year's salary first, many people get rich overnight! Especially in this economic crisis, many people are unemployed!

If it weren't for President Meng's strict control and making sure that those who have the ability to do it, you can really find as many people as you want this time!

The biggest problem now is to take these people away! If you want to introduce talents, you need the consent of the U.S. government! President Moe wants to try his best to fight for the amount of this personnel quota!

Of course, you can't just buy it as long as you have money.

President Moe's goal now is to get the president and Congress to nod their heads.

What President Moe is doing has fallen into the eyes of Hirofumi Ito.

Ito Hirobumi didn't understand what kind of person Xuan Yuemeng was, he was too discerning, and Ito Hirobumi suggested to the Japanese envoy to the United States to learn from Xuan Yuemeng's practice and recruit technicians from various industries.

However, the United States is in an economic crisis, and Japan's economy is not doing well, and this time, the Japanese envoys only have round-trip travel expenses, and the funds are extremely limited.

Moreover, the salary set by President Meng, not to mention that the Japanese can't accept it, is that the local society in the United States is stunned, and for a while, it has become an honor to be able to be favored by Klinsmann and take it to the Far East.

Ito Hirobumi was angry, and sent a letter to the Japanese Foreign Secretary Deputy Shima Taneto, asking Xiang Xuan Yuemeng to spend a lot of money to recruit talents, just to train foreign students, can not keep up with the speed of the country's development, helpless, in the initial stage of the Meiji Restoration, the government can't come up with much money at all, although the Japanese envoys are allocated, but only 100,000 US dollars.

The White House is a white neoclassical sandstone building located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C. Because the White House is the residence and office of the President of the United States, the term "White House" often refers to the United States Government.

The White House in the United States is the place where the president and the government work. Founded in 1800, after the Great Britain and the United States went to war in 1812, British troops occupied the city of Washington and set fire to buildings including the U.S. Capitol and the Presidential Palace.

Later, in 1814, the brownish-red stone walls of the presidential residence were painted white to cover the traces of the fire.

A long time ago, the White House was not called the White House, but the "Presidential Building" and "President's Palace". It was built in 1792 as a grey sandstone building. From 1800 onwards, it was the place where the President of the United States worked and lived with his family during his term of office, but in 1812 during the Second War of Great Britain invaded Washington. The British burned down the building on August 24, 1814, leaving only an empty shelf. When it was restored in 1817, in order to conceal the traces of the fire, President Monroe ordered a white coat of paint to be applied to the gray sandstone. Since then, the presidential residence has been known as the "White House."

It has a strong British architectural style, and in the subsequent change of owners, it has been integrated with the style of American architecture layer by layer. Simplicity and elegance form the basis of the architectural style of the White House.

Interestingly, the first president to enter the White House was not the first president, Washington, but the second president, John Adams; Since then, successive US presidents have used the White House as their official residence, making the White House synonymous with the US government.

The White House was designed by the famous Irish-American architect James Hopben, who was based on the style of an English country house at the end of the 18th century, and was built in a white limestone from Virginia based on the European style of the popular Italian architect Plati at the time.

Even before the plan was introduced, Washington had already made up its mind about the future residence of the US president: it must not be a palace, it must not be luxurious, because the owner who works here is a servant of the state. He put forward three requirements for the construction of the presidential residence: spacious, sturdy, elegant, and giving people a sense of transcending the times. He believed that his country would soon become rich and strong, expand its territory, and occupy an increasingly important position in the world, and there was no ambiguity in building the presidential residence. For the presidential residence, which was about to begin design and construction, Washington insisted that it did not need to be tall, but that three stories would be sufficient.

There are many design solutions from all over the world, and there is considerable room for choice. A young man named Jobben came to Philadelphia to meet Washington and told the president that he was going to go to the capital to see the terrain himself before making the design. Sure enough, Hobben rushed to live in Georgetown and spent 20 days drawing the blueprints, which he must have already prepared.

On July 16, 1792, Washington also came to Georgetown, and the next day summoned Jefferson and others to select a design. Hoben's design stands out as the first choice.

The scheme of the presidential residence, designed by Irish-born architect James Hopben, was developed from the 18th-century English rustic architectural style.

The White House covers a total area of more than 73,000 square meters. It consists of three parts: the main building and the east and west wings. The main building is 51.51 meters wide and 25.75 meters deep, with three floors: the ground floor, the first floor and the second floor. The White House is the place where the President of the United States works and lives, so it has become synonymous with the United States government. On the ground floor, there is a diplomatic reception hall, a library, a map room, a porcelain room, a gold and silver room, and an office for the White House administrators.

The oval-shaped diplomatic reception hall is the place where the president receives foreign heads of state and envoys, and is covered with an oval-shaped patterned carpet with a sky blue background, embroidered with the symbols of the 50 states of the United States, and a huge circular oil painting depicting the American landscape on the wall.

It was here that the current President of the United States, Grant, met with President Moe. (To be continued.) )
