The next day, the car sent by the Ordnance Department took Philip and Anna early to their office, General Yang Lane. David Yu, with Deputy Director Li Chenggan and several officials, was already waiting at the gate, and Dai Yulong and Bai Wanrou naturally arrived at the Ordnance Industry Bureau.

For yesterday's defeat under Philip, David Yu was convinced, and at the same time he had a strong interest in the son of the German Krupp family who was proficient in Chinese, you must know that David Yu's wife is also German, and he himself has studied in Germany for many years, so he has an inexplicable feeling for Germany and the Germans.

Now the two sides want to carry out in-depth cooperation, especially since many German arms manufacturers have imported weapons industry technology to China before, and there have also been some results of cooperation. However, those cooperation is for the Chinese government to buy the relevant manufacturing technology from the German government, rather than cooperating to set up factories. Therefore, this cooperation is also a new model, and David Yu naturally attaches great importance to it. If the Dragon Soul Ordnance Complex really comes to China to invest and set up factories, it will not only bring some manufacturing technology, but also really improve the overall level of China's ordnance industry, because a series of advanced weapons and aircraft of the Dragon Soul Ordnance Complex, if we want to gradually realize the localization of materials and parts, it will be able to drive the technological development of China's arsenal, which is more significant than simply buying technology.

History will be changed by the emergence of Philip, originally in China, and later also established a joint venture aircraft factory by the United States and China, that is, the Central Hangzhou Aircraft Factory, the Central Aviation Commission of the National Government and Pan American Air Lines to build a joint venture aircraft factory, the United States invested 10 million US dollars, the Aviation Committee also invested 10 million US dollars, with 2,500 employees, 55% of the Aviation Committee, in 1935 in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province Jianqiao was completed and put into operation. The full name is the Central Aircraft Factory. The general manager is the American Bao Lei, the factory director is the Chinese Han Da, and most of the employees come from India, Nanyang and Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong, China. After the Central Aircraft Factory was put into operation, 63 fighters were manufactured and 50 were assembled, which became one of the main sources of aircraft for the Chinese Air Force at that time. The Central Aircraft Factory also developed the world's first coaxial reversing helicopter.

Now, the Ordnance Industry Administration not only has to cooperate with the Dragon Soul on behalf of the Chinese government, but also has to conduct a lot of hard negotiations and games. As long as it involves co-investment, either party wants to get more benefits, especially control, which will become the focus of negotiations! However, David Yu did not want to enter the negotiation process too early, he wanted to let Philip and Anna visit the Chinese arsenal first, and then ask Philip to choose the location of the factory to be built. Finally, the two sides will negotiate.

David Yu greeted Philip and Anna, who had just gotten out of the car, with a smile and a smile, enthusiastically held Philip's big hands with both hands, looked up at the Westerner, who was more than half a head taller than him, and said loudly: "Mr. Philip, did you have a good rest last night?" I really shouldn't have fought with you yesterday, I didn't say anything about it, I was uncomfortable for a long time last night! To Mr. Philip, I am convinced! It's not as good as this. Today we will not talk about the specifics, I would like to ask you and Miss Anna to visit our Chinese arsenal first. So that you have an intuitive understanding of the overall situation of China's weapons industry, and we will provide you with detailed information later, what do you think? ”

Philip also wanted to see what the situation of the Chinese ordnance industry was, after all, after the establishment of the Chinese branch of the Dragon Soul Ordnance Complex, it would definitely have to recruit Chinese workers to produce aircraft and weapons, although at first it was necessary to send some German and Swedish technicians and skilled workers. But in the future, the production of the Chinese branch will still have to be completed by the Chinese. In addition, Philip is also very curious about the Chinese arsenals before the war, what are they like? How about the production capacity? In later generations, he could only get a glimpse of it from the relevant literature, but now that he has the opportunity to investigate it in depth, how could he refuse?

So Philip said very simply: "It's all up to Director Yu's arrangement!" For the Chinese arsenal. I've always been very interested, and now it's time to dive into the field to find out! I can't ask for it! ”

Dai Yulong stepped forward and said loudly: "Brother Philip, when you go to China, you have to be like you are at home, don't be polite, you can mention any difficulties to the eldest brother and Director Yu in front of you!" This visit is also very important, and Wanrou and I will accompany you throughout the whole process. Dai Yulong made no secret of his relationship with Philip, that is, to tell the officials of the Ordnance Industry Department that he must not bully Philip as a foreigner, he is his brother!

Bai Wanrou also nodded lightly and said, "Philip, Senior Brother is right! We also hope that you will come to China this time and implement this project, which will be beneficial to both sides. ”

Anna asked curiously, "Philip, what are you talking about?" ”

Philip smiled and said: "Anna, today's itinerary is to visit the Chinese arsenal, how about it, are you interested?" ”

Anna nodded excitedly and said, "Okay! China is where I will work and live for a long time in the future, and our Dragon Soul China branch will definitely cooperate with these arsenals in China, of course I want to go and see it! ”

David Yu laughed and said, "Okay! Let's go! The first place we went to was the Jinling Arsenal! This is one of the oldest and largest arsenals in China's ordnance industry, let's talk slowly in the car! Mr. Philip and Miss Anna, please! ”

The group got into a few cars and headed for the Jinling Arsenal.

Philip shared a car with Dai Yulong and David Yu, while Anna shared a car with Bai Wanrou and Li Chenggan, deputy director of the Ordnance Industry Administration.

Watching the scenery on the side of the street quickly sweeping backwards, Philip sighed with emotion, but David Yu interrupted his thoughts: "Mr. Philip, let me introduce you to our Jinling Arsenal first!" Our Jinling Arsenal is a large state-owned arsenal directly managed by the Ministry of Military Affairs, and now it is concurrently headed by Li Chenggan, deputy director of the Military Administration, which was renamed from the Jinling Machinery Manufacturing Bureau in 1929. Jinling Machinery Manufacturing Bureau was founded in 1865. Jinling Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, together with the Shanghai Jiangnan Machinery Manufacturing Bureau founded in the same year, the Fuzhou Shipbuilding Bureau founded in 1866 and the Tianjin Machinery Manufacturing Bureau founded in 1867, is one of the four major military enterprises founded during the Westernization Movement in the 60s of the 19th century. At that time, the main products were guns, cannons, ammunition, gunpowder, mines, etc., and there were 7 factories including the machine factory, the Yan copper factory, the wood factory building, the machine factory, the machine left factory and the machine right factory. At present, the Jinling Arsenal is divided into 11 branches, including heavy machine guns, light machine guns, rifles, mortars, heavy mortars, shells, tools, machines, power, gunpowder, and gun repairs, with more than 3,000 machines and equipment and more than 14,300 employees, making it the largest arsenal in China.
