Chapter 117: Secret Mission

Chapter 117 Secret Mission

Qin Kai said that he was in high spirits, but he found that the technical directors under him were looking at him a little blankly, could it be that what he said was not exciting and clear enough?

Xu Guofang saw that everyone didn't speak, just looking at the plan on those pages, so he asked first: "Supervision, this is really good, but now the R&D teams in each factory have ongoing research and development, in fact, they are all doing experiments in their respective factories, so let them all move to the newly formed real room, so how big is this real room?" ”

Qin Kai was stunned for a moment, it turned out that these guys confused the real room with the factory's R&D team, no wonder they had a strange expression, this real room was not originally a place to develop these industrialization problems, but to conduct basic scientific research, and the results produced by the real yàn room, and then through the Guò factory R&D team to complete the industrialization.

After explaining this reason, these supervisors figured out the actual function of this real room, and the supervision was originally to establish a completely open test platform to provide those R&D personnel with an opportunity to conduct experiments according to their own wishes, so that some basic topics that need to be studied in the research team can be transferred to the real room.

As for the management of the real yàn room, Qin Kai naturally had no experience, and he synthesized the management plan of the Lavoisier Paris real yàn room and the real yàn room of the Liebig Kisson University of this era, and formulated the management model of the horsetail test.

This model is a multi-layer annular structure, the outermost layer is all the R&D personnel and engineers who meet the requirements of the Mawei room, Qin Kai fully agreed to expand this scope to qualified foreign engineers, they can propose the direction and topics of research and development to the director of the factory, or directly to the Mawei room committee in charge of the real room, after approval, the basic project can be directly issued by the real room committee. A real yàn group was formed to go to the Mawei real yàn room for research.

And belong to special industries, such as involving the military industry, secret industry research and development team, must be reported to Qin Kai here for approval, these real products enjoy additional funding, and there is a special area of isolation area, but after success, the technical achievements must be transferred to the Mawei shipbuilding, of course, according to the recent incentive mechanism, the research and development personnel and the team will share 10% of the profits within 10 years of the industrialization of the technology.

In addition, the real yàn room also recruits outstanding students from the technical workers, art garden students, Mawei school, intermediate school, and senior school of Mawei Ship Administration to work in the real yàn room, and they will start from the junior real staff of the Mawei real yàn room, and gradually become the researchers who lead the real yàn room.

After Qin Kai finished announcing his grand plan, almost everyone was shocked, and everyone realized that once this real room was put into operation according to the superintendent's vision, it would inject infinite vitality into the horsetail. Mawei Shipyard to such a huge scale, are relying on the strong advantages of technology, although now as always low-key, but every supervisor understands how wise the shipyard relies on the idea of technology, so the development of the future, the future is really limitless!

And Zhan Tianyou, who was generally bowing his head and writing hard to record the main points of the meeting, was even more surprised, after their group of American children reached the Mawei Ship Administration, in fact, what they heard the most was about the rapid rise of this official position, although those rumors were somewhat vague, but the ability of this Lord Qin was definitely unusual.

These children studying in the United States, except for the twenty or so sent to the primary school and intermediate school, the others were specially arranged in the dormitory of the research institute, from the moment they stepped into this huge industrial base, each of them was immediately deeply attracted and shocked, there is a huge industrial system that the entire Qing Dynasty may not have, which made them immediately find their dream position in life.

And today's establishment of this ponytail room is undoubtedly a new platform for their group of people who dream of serving the country with science and technology, which makes him want to bring this news to others immediately......

The back is the discussion of the specific management and details of this real room, the talents of this room research and development technology discuss these problems, naturally it is endless, the only bitter is Zhan Tianyou, after this pen, he will keep recording the content of this discussion, even lunch, these people are exempt, send people to bring food, while eating and talking, Zhan Tianyou is even more miserable, can only bite a bite of bread, and then continue to write hard!

When it comes to the late night, the supervisors finally unified their differences and completed the preliminary plan and intention, and the committee of the Mawei real yàn room is served by Wang Fei, Liao Dechang, Chen Tongpu, Wang Ruijie, and Zhang Siqi, the main reason for choosing these people is that they are relatively not responsible for the management of the factory, and they all have a good technical background. ,

The specific equipment purchase and operation of the room was proposed by the committee to purchase through Mawei Shipping, and the daily management, after the coordination of the committee members, was undertaken by Zhang Siqi, who had relatively little work, after all, everyone else had to rush the progress of the research and development project to do, only he was with a group of people tinkering with copper coils all day long.

The place was chosen in the vacant research institute next door to the Mawei Artillery Bureau, where there were a large number of empty rooms, in addition to a part occupied by Chen Tongpu's chemical practice, there were also a large number of empty rooms, and next door was the Artillery Bureau, it was easy to increase defense, and soon a number of secret posts were added to the periphery of the research institute, and guard towers were built at the four corners of the wall.

The first batch of authorized chemical plant technicians who were newly assigned coal tar research tasks were now able to obtain the conditions to conduct research according to their own ideas immediately after submitting an application, which immediately attracted them to soak in the chemistry department of the Mawei real room all day long, and the Guò real yàn test is undoubtedly the most solid way to obtain new knowledge.

In the port of Hamburg, Germany, a British freighter laden with cargo landed on the trestle, the British captain was somewhat strange to the guests this time, a businessman Joseph who was obscene with Hamburg, Germany, but hired a large number of Chinese, but for Joseph's good luck, the British captain was still very envious, and during the whole voyage, Joseph was idle enough to sit in the top cabin and bask in the sun every day...... And those tedious affairs are handled by that group of hard-working Chinese.

However, after arriving at the port of Hamburg, Joseph was obviously much busier, and a company called Yistong quickly set up the framework under his leadership, and his friends heard that Joseph had returned from making a fortune in the East, and had opened a company in the port of Hamburg, specializing in overseas trade, and the business was very hot.

However, there were a few acquaintances who wanted to get a job in the company of his friend Joseph through Guò, but he politely refused for various reasons, so another rumor immediately spread in Joseph's past circle - I know that Joseph, who went to the East to dig gold, has become a completely different person since he became rich, only knows money, and no longer knows friends!

However, for the obscene Joseph, he didn't care about the words of those poor friends before, and now he is the German general manager of the powerful Yistong Company, although it is only nominal, and the real person in charge of the contact with the East is the official Wang Chenyu, who has been in the shadows, but the salary of two thousand marks per month is enough for him to live a rich life that only the German nobles can enjoy,

And most importantly, the strength of his backstage boss can be seen by the eyes of a third-rate businessman, and the first shipments that arrived with the ship were many of the things he had never seen in Europe, such as soap and toothpaste, which had arrived in Hamburg and had become the new favorite of high society.

There are also those exquisite steel tableware made of zuò, I don't know how the Chinese make zuò out, anyway, it will not rust, the price is only seventy percent compared to the price of silverware that those nobles are keen on, but it is more handy, the output is also very large, and the specifications of making zuò are even more consistent.

What surprised him even more was that the huge force behind him had an amazing ability to develop, these stainless steel tableware not only had the aesthetic style of the East, but also the design of various styles of Western simplicity and luxury, although he was only a crappy businessman, but he was very wise to pry in an assistant manager from another overseas trading company, and soon opened up the sales of the goods on the ship in Hamburg.

Now the upper class of Hamburg already knew that he was a big merchant who had returned from the gold rush in the East, and that he had a very special purchase channel for all kinds of goods that were not available in the European market, and of course, this purchase channel was a secret that every maritime merchant should never divulge.

Wang Chenyu's feelings after arriving in Germany are basically the same as what the instructor told him, the Germans do not seem to have any special opinion of the yellow-skinned Chinese, and they quickly cut off the strange braids of several soldiers accompanying them in order to integrate into the local society, so that they can integrate into the city more low-key.

After clearing the first batch of goods, the news of the completion of the company's initial construction was immediately sent to Fuzhou in the form of a coded telegram, and soon, Wang Chenyi received the first task from Mawei Shipyard, and quickly established offices in various important cities in Europe to recruit all kinds of German researchers. Of course, if it involves the technical personnel of state secrets, Qin Kai has also given instructions, and there is no need to attract the attention of the local government for this reason, after all, their foothold is to obtain the greatest commercial benefits. ,

What Joseph didn't know was that in Berlin, the capital of Germany, another Celtic overseas trading company was quietly established, and the owner of this company was also a German businessman James who had returned from the gold rush in the East. And the person in charge of James's contact with China was Qin Kai's student Wang Li, and the new task he received was very peculiar.

Immediately accompany James on a journey through the Austro-Hungarian Empire, expanding his commercial routes and embarking on a secret mission. Wang Li carefully read the details of the mission, but although he had doubts about this bizarre mission, he immediately discussed the specific travel arrangements with James.

A few days later, a team from the Celtic Company left Berlin for the territory of Austria-Hungary, an ally of the German Empire. And the consortium seems to be doing a serious business from beginning to end, which makes him feel at ease with his salary.

However, James still had some problems with Wang Li, the officer in charge of his liaison with the consortium, and the road from Berlin to Prague was half overland, but it had already been partially connected to the railway, and then along the Fortava River to Prague, the second largest city in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

There are also many cities with considerable commercial value along the way, James originally wanted to investigate and develop commercial points or business alliances by the way, but Wang Li hurried to Prague to tell him, those small commercial points will be investigated by the way when he returns to Berlin, Prague is a focus of this trip.

James fiercely despised the short-sightedness of the Chinese, this Prague is indeed a big city, but if the development of commercial points along the way, with the monopoly of the consortium's products, he is fully confident that he will make two hundred, or even three hundred profit points, then, according to the contract, he can also get a lot of shares, but in this matter still have to give this young official a little face, then start with Prague!

When James went out with the guide the next day, he saw that the young official Wang Li was also going out, he was also a little curious, these soldiers from China were obviously from the consortium to spy on him, but he did not have any plans to go against the interests of the consortium, at this time in the world, the consortium that could pay him such an amazing salary, he was sure that there was only this one in the East! No one is going to have trouble with their own money, and he is ready to fight for a few years before he can get a 10% stake in the company from the consortium.

"Mr. Wang Li, are you going out too?" James greeted him very warmly!

Wang Li doesn't have much affection or disgust for this German, but after getting along for a while, he can also see that this German is more and more active in doing things for Mawei's commercial interests, which makes him also admire the instructor's methods, and let the foreigners do things for us, which is also the instructor's means!

"Mr. James, I heard the teacher talk about Prague, which is a famous city in Central Europe, so today I went out to Prague Castle and Charles Big Stone Bridge to visit!" at

It turns out that there are people who are familiar with European civilization in the interior of this Oriental consortium, no wonder in the East, a country with backward science and technology, has risen such an amazing huge industrial monster, James is very proud of this bit of information that he came up with by chance, the stronger the consortium, the more beneficial it can only be said to be for himself. He smiled very gentlemanly, waved to the young officer, and began his busy business operations.

The guide on the side obviously heard Wang Li's words and asked, "Mr. Wang Li, do you want to change your itinerary and visit the magnificent Prague Palace and the Charles Stone Bridge where the holy icons are gathered?" ”

Wang Li smiled slightly, "No, according to the original plan, let's go to Charles University first!" ”

Charles University was founded in the era of the Holy Roman Empire, and although the German Empire and the Austro-Crarian Empire were independent, this famous university of the time was already the most famous university in Central Europe, but the Austro-Hungarian Empire was declining, so that this ancient college had a twilight feeling.

However, when Wang Li came to Charles University on the east side of Prague, he was amazed by the scene he saw, it was 10 o'clock in the morning, and countless young people with books and cloth bags were crowded on the avenue leading to the main entrance of Charles University.

"These are all Charles University students?" Wang Li was surprised and asked the guide next to him. ,

"Mr. Wang, these are all students of Charles University, which is the oldest university in Central Europe and has a high reputation, with a history of more than 500 years since its establishment! Now this scale is also 200 years old! Henry, the guide, replied proudly.

This information on Wang Li, a group of young people from the Mawei Shipbuilding, the impact is huge, originally thought that the new school of the Mawei Shipbuilding has reached an earth-shattering scale, but I didn't expect that a university in Taixi, thousands of miles away, already has such a scale of university, according to the teacher, the technical level of the students of this Taixi University can reach the level of the Mawei Shipbuilding Senior School.

The study of Mawei School made Wang Li know very clearly that there were only more than ten new education schools in the entire Qing Dynasty, and there was only one school in Mawei that could reach the current Mawei Senior School, and the students were less than a hundred...... Still shocking......

Imperceptibly, Wang Li's thinking has undergone tremendous changes, no wonder the instructors want to hire talents from Europe, no wonder they will give such a strange task......

"Henry, there are so many students at Charles University, I want to find someone, what can you do?"

As soon as the guide Henry heard about this troublesome matter, he naturally knew some methods, but it was not easy to do, this kind of troublesome matter, who would like to help, but he immediately changed his attitude that was not positive at all, because at this moment a small stack of Deutsche marks appeared in front of his eyes! "This shouldn't be difficult! Mr. Wang, give me the name, and I will be able to help you with this soon! ”

"The translator and I must go together!" Wang Li resolutely denied the behavior of the fight, and then shook the pile of Deutsche marks in his hand, which was close to 100.

Henry was very generous and immediately agreed, and the three of them went to the student management office of Charles College together, and after spending a little tip again, a middle-aged man in the management office agreed to help check the list of students, but because it was not clear the specific enrollment time of the Serbian student named николатесла, it might take a day to find the information.

Wang Li very happily called the middle-aged man to the side, and asked the translator to tell him, if the news is accurate enough, there will be a reward, presumably there are a lot of today, the more accurate the reward! Then he left the address of the hotel, and did not leave the slightest opportunity for this person to continue questioning, and turned around and left!
