Chapter 575: Marine Steel Order

After making a decision, Yang Yuanzhao did not rush to act, the information of the middle-aged man who went to the Tianjin Expo has not yet come out, I believe it will be soon, the shareholders of Jiangnan Shipyard have basically been listed, if you look for it according to this, it should not be difficult, only by figuring out who it is, can you prepare according to this family.

Yang Yuanzhao did not stop for long, with the simple record of the character characteristics on the exhibition, the investigation bureau began to conduct an in-depth investigation, after several years of development, the tentacles of the investigation bureau, has penetrated into the whole of China, Shanghai, the most important city in China, the Oriental seaport, the financial center, how can it not be a comprehensive layout, it can be said that the network outside the northwest, the most comprehensive, the most expensive is Shanghai.

The investigation bureau has conducted a meticulous investigation, and it only took less than 5 hours to get out the information of this middle-aged man, who looks a little old, but he is not particularly old, only 32 years old, surnamed Nie, named Qijie, called Yuntai, and a native of Hengshan, Hunan.

When he saw this, Yang Yuanzhao was a little strange, Nie Yuntai's identity was the general manager of Jiangnan Shipyard, and under his name, he did not have many shares, only occupying about 0.5 of the newly established Jiangnan Shipyard, that is, one-20th of the shares, which could not be regarded as small, but among the 100 shares, it could only be said that it was negligible, such a small number of shares, but dominated the main things of Jiangnan Shipyard, and he handled the large and small physical objects.

Could it be that the experience of staying abroad has made Nie Yuntai sit firmly in this position, in Nie Yuntai's resume, there is a previous experience of staying abroad, is it so easy, change to a small factory, textile factory or the like, and it is possible that the position of Jiangnan Shipyard is extremely high, it is already in the system of Beiyang, after the official supervision and commercial office was turned into a private enterprise, countless predators paid attention to him, and now it is estimated that the total number of shares will reach more than 40 million, in China, it is definitely called a behemoth.

With such a question, I continued to read Nie Yuntai's resume, and really looked at all his resumes, only to know that things in China are by no means so simple, the Nie family is a small family, it is an ordinary family in Hengshan, Hunan, and my grandfather is just a county commander, from an ordinary gentry, to the status of a local wealthy family, but since his father's generation, there have been obvious changes, it can be said that things are on the rise, the reason is very simple, Nie Yuntai's mother, that is, his father's original name is Zeng Jifen, It sounds like a very common name, and further up, Zeng Jifen is Zeng Guofan's youngest daughter, that is, his father is Zeng Guofan's youngest son-in-law, and Nie Yuntai is Zeng Guofan's grandson.

When the Nie family married Zeng Jifen, Zeng Guofan had died of illness, but the Nie family also took off because of this, Nie Yuntai's father Nie Zhongfang followed Zeng Guoquan, Zuo Zongtang and Li Hanzhang (Li Hongzhang's brother), unintentionally not a close relationship with the Hunan army, a famous minister in the late Qing Dynasty, has been immersed in hard work, brave to do things, after many sponsorships, first in Jiangnan Ji Qì Bureau, and then from the small official of Susong Taidao in Jiangsu Province, step by step, and then promoted to Zhejiang according to the envoy, and then moved to Jiangsu as a political envoy, and then moved to care for the governor of Jiangsu, Then moved to the governor of Anhui and the governor of Zhejiang.

Among Nie Zhongfang's tenure, Yang Yuanzhao valued the most in the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau's meeting and general office, and then entered Susong Taidaotai and made steady progress. As for Nie Yuntai, he lived in Shanghai with his father Nie Jichun in 1883 as a teenager. In the nineteenth year of Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (1893), he returned to Hunan to participate in the children's examination, and then learned new subjects such as English, electrical, and chemical engineering from foreigners. Later, he went to the United States to study, and walked a similar path to Yang Yue.

In other words, the Nie family is across the Hunan Army, the Huai Army, and even because of the relationship between the Jiangnan family, it is inextricably linked with the ** Party and some big families in Zhejiang and Hunan. In this sense, Nie Yuntai is really the most suitable candidate for general manager, spanning many families, and its own ability, as early as 1909, the establishment of Hengfeng Textile Bureau, after the birth of the northwest, large-scale expansion, become one of the largest cotton textile groups in the south.

Such a character, no wonder he entered the Tianjin Expo in a grand manner, not to mention the current in-laws of the Nie family, even if it is the identity of Zeng Wenzheng's grandson, all over Beiyang, no one dares to touch him, Yuan Shikai is the same. Once again, the radio waves passed through most of China, and the special channels were quickly transmitted to Liu Shu, telling him that the sample of marine steel and some materials would be transported to Tianjin by guò railway, and that it would take him one day at most, so that he could fight for Jiangnan Shipyard and Nie Yuntai as much as possible, and find out the quantity they requested.

After Liu Shu read Nie Yuntai's information, he couldn't help but be taken aback, Zeng Guofan's grandson, his father also became a governor, this is definitely a big party, but not the governor of Shanxi, Zhejiang is a place of finance and taxation, and the position of the governor of Zhejiang is definitely above Shanxi in the system.

Now the Northwest, in the Chinese arena is becoming more and more important, the war against Russia is also impressive, from 1840, the first large-scale victory in foreign warfare, almost defeated 210,000 Russian troops, which has never been before, plus the sale of machinery, the cooperation of the Northwest Bank, in the whole North, and even China, there are layers of networks, they get most of the things they want to know.

It turned out that from 1911, Jiangnan Shipyard was integrated, from the official supervision and commercial office, to the time of the transformation of commercial shares, it stopped for 6 months, and only completed most of the equity transfer a few days ago, and began to take over orders, this time to Tianjin, is only the first step of Nie Yuntai, the name of the Northwest Iron and Steel Plant is very large, it can reach an output of 20 million tons, the price is not high, if it can produce marine steel, the cost of a single ship of Jiangnan Shipyard will drop by about 12 compared with before, which is huge, less than 1,000 tons, For more than 3,000 tons of ocean-going ships, the drop is extremely staggering, which is extremely important for Nie Yuntai's production plan, which can stabilize the position.

The next day, Zhou Shuquan, the director of Taiyuan Special Steel Plant, came to Tianjin with 12 different categories of marine steel, Zhou Shuquan was Zhang Zhaozhong's assistant, born in the United States, and his technology was quite outstanding, transferred from Baiyun Obo Iron and Steel Plant to Taiyuan Special Steel, this steel plant is officially confronted with Beiyang, before the construction of the steelmaking plant, because of the experience of Baiyun Obo, the construction of Taiyuan Special Steel, less detours, most of the steelmaking blast furnace is not 150 tons, or even 200 tons of large steel furnaces, It is a small steelmaking blast furnace, and the production is not ordinary steel, it is combined with the Northwest Material Real Yàn Room to produce all kinds of special steel, although the output is not as good as Baiyun Obo, the added value is particularly high, especially the cannon steel of large-caliber artillery, almost 88 or more, are produced here.

Because of the importance, most of them are special steel for the military, the level of the special steel mill is particularly high, and even the resident military representative, about some of his production workshops, are basically top secret, and have not been promoted to the market and participated in the expo, this time Yang Yuanzhao hurriedly asked him to bring 12 pieces of marine steel with the nature of the real yàn to come, more or less puzzled, these are just in the popularization of research, the production of samples, for the time being Taiyuan Special Steel has no plan to produce them.

He didn't even have time to rest, so he was pulled away by Liu Shu and went directly to see Nie Yuntai, as early as after knowing Zhou Shuquan's itinerary, Liu Shu had already contacted Nie Yuntai. Nie Yuntai at the Tianjin Expo, after not receiving a positive answer, visited some relatives and old people in Tianjin, and prepared to go directly to the United States by boat, Jiangnan Shipyard has close ties with the United States and Germany, and some unsolvable steel products are imported by them, and it is just a way to Tianjin, but yesterday I heard that Liu Shu was here, and met with him for the issue of marine steel, and there was no delay left and right, so he agreed.

Among the largest hotels in the Tianjin Concession, Nie Yuntai met Liu Shu, from the age, Liu Shu is older than Nie Yuntai, but it seems, but Nie Yuntai is older, after a little greeting, both sides went straight to the topic, Liu Shu took out a sample of the deck of the ship, Nie Yuntai was also prepared, brought 4 engineers, 2 of them are foreigners, they carefully analyze the samples, especially the normative performance indicators brought by the northwest, this is in line with the world, these engineers took a brief look, At most, only some instruments were used to check the hardness, weight, corrosion resistance, etc., which were exactly the same as those in the Baotou introduction, and these people had a certain face, and whispered the results of their inspection by Nie Yuntai's side.

Nie Yuntai nodded with satisfaction and said: "It seems that the northwest is really strong, this indicator, I'm afraid it's not worse than American products, I don't know the price?" ”

"Price!" Liu Shu glanced at Zhou Shuquan, Zhou Shuquan took out a table, from top to bottom, writing in detail the price of each marine steel, Nie Yuntai nodded with satisfaction, these prices are at least 15 lower than the price of the United States, if you add the freight of the Pacific Ocean, this price can also be about 5-7 down, the use of marine steel on ordinary steamboats, will account for more than three or four percent of the total weight of the entire steamboat, this is a bulk purchase, the price is reduced, which represents a decrease in their profits, even after reducing part of the price, There will be stronger competitiveness.

The reason why Nie Yuntai put his position in Hengfeng Textile Bureau and came to Jiangnan Shipyard, on the one hand, here is more able to play what he learned from the United States, on the other hand, how not profits, since the beginning of the 20th century, the development of the world's shipping industry is extremely rapid, and the replacement is getting faster and faster, large 10,000-ton freighters, replacing small freighters, larger carrying capacity, lower prices, has become the first choice for all new ships, he also wants to get involved in this field, now it seems that the choice is correct, The first step in improving the shipyard was taken.
