The Port of Hamburg, one of the most important ports in Germany, is located at the mouth of the Elbe River, is one of the busiest ports in Europe, the third largest port in the world, second only to London and New York.

The naval officers led by Spee have begun to regroup, Mu Mo accompanied Yang Yuanzhao, and whispered to him to introduce the welcome ceremony and the personnel who came to greet him.

The heirs of European royal families are all called crown princes, and there are even ranks, and some are even generations of grandchildren, respectively, but it is undeniable that Wilhelm, as the heir of the future German Empire, is second only to Wilhelm II and the Empress in the royal family, and his status is quite high. Yang Yuanzhao doesn't know much about this crown prince, but he is very well-known in Germany, and the son of Wilhelm II is thirty years old this year, has a military education, and serves in the army.

After crossing the mouth of the Elbe, there are already signs of farmland and houses ahead, Germany has finally arrived, which lasted 28 days, crossed more than half the world, traveled more than 10,000 nautical miles, and finally reached the other side of the world, which is one of the largest industrial countries in the world and the strongest industrial country in Europe.

Yang Yuanzhao is a simple dabbling in diplomatic etiquette, he went to Germany in his personal capacity, and did not have any position in China, at most as a director of the German and American foreign firms, but Germany does not see it that way. Yang Yuanzhao's overt and implicit identity is at least the head of China's local forces. It can even be said that it is most likely that a unified China in the future will ascend to a high position.

The German Foreign Office has carefully considered it. The reason why Yang Yuanzhao, who was directly greeted as a regional or even national leader, did not let Wilhelm II come in person was because to avoid triggering a backlash from Britain and other countries, and the personal greeting of the crown prince, coupled with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of Industry and many other important officials within the country, the importance attached to Yang Yuanzhao can be seen.

The waterway of the port is charged zhì. Directly vacated, the five battleships were like stars and moons, complimenting around the cruiser, all the navy, dressed in ceremonial clothes, standing neatly on the side of the battleship, when the battleship slowly docked at the dock, on the red carpet that had already been prepared, a guard of honor stood there. When Yang Yuanzhao followed Mu Mo and the others down, the music played in unison.

Crown Prince Wilhelm is a typical handsome German man, at the age of thirty, the wind and frost have not added any traces of time to him. On the contrary, because of his experience in the army, he is more heroic and looks like a soldier.

German military uniforms. Always so straight, Crown Prince William also wears a military uniform. When he saw Yang Yuanzhao, he took the initiative to greet him. A few words of welcome were said at the right time. Yang Yuanzhao's attention to Germany, but also maintained the surface of thanks and eagerness, with proficient German with Crown Prince William and other ministers of simple communication, proficient and fluent German, so that Crown Prince William was surprised, can't help but recall the information about Yang Yuanzhao, should have the experience of studying in Europe or the United States, the source is unknown, started in Baotou in the northwest of China, out of control, from the shopping mall into the political arena, is China's absolute real power figure.

Fixed etiquette, some fake greetings, Yang Yuanzhao also participated in them one by one, sometimes, whether you want to or not, these things must be done, the battleship is slowly moving, here in Hamburg, there is also a military port, in order to take care of Yang Yuanzhao's convenience to get off the ship, the docking position is in the Mingang, now, people have come down, in order to avoid a long delay in the operation of the port of Hamburg, they took the initiative to give way to the military port more than ten kilometers away.

Noticing the opening of the battleship, Yang Yuanzhao turned around, looked at the direction of the battleship, and asked casually, "Where did they go?" ”

Mu Mo, who was standing next to Yang Yuanzhao and temporarily acted as a guide, bowed his head and replied in a low voice: "They are heading to the Hamburg Military Port, and they need to carry out unnecessary maintenance on the steam turbine and the ship!" ”

The military port, Yang Yuanzhao's eyes lit up, the military port is almost ten kilometers away from here, but the shadow is sufficient, you can see several huge figures, if the Scharnhorst armored cruiser can be regarded as a 10,000-ton giant ship, then those tall ships, definitely called super giant ships, battleships, almost instantly, flashed in Yang Yuanzhao's heart.

The name battleship evolved gradually, derived from the large warships that sailed battleships from the mid-17th century to the mid-19th century, mainly lined up in battle lines. With the development of steam engines, blasting bombs and steel armor, in the late 19th century, there was a so-called ironclad ship, the monarch class laid the shape of a mature all-steam-powered steel armored battleship, and the emergence of dreadnoughts became a watershed for modern warships.

Noticing Yang Yuanzhao's gaze, Mu Mo asked with interest, "Does Mr. Yang want to visit the military port?" ”

"Is that okay?" Yang Yuanzhao's eyes lit up and asked.

"Of course!" Mu Mo pouted at Crown Prince William and said, "As long as he agrees, it's not a problem!" ”

The welcome ceremony is nearing the end, and it is still a simple exchange, which can be regarded as an introduction to the understanding of the two sides, specific negotiations and cooperation intentions, which still need to be carried out next, as for Yang Yuanzhao and Crown Prince William, they may just show up at the beginning to prove that they are concerned about this matter, and the rest will be handed over to their subordinates to negotiate.

For Yang Yuanzhao, the general direction has been set, the 400 million that was said before, and the 500 million that is basically determined now is bound to be spent in Germany, how to spend it, what timetable, what things will be purchased, it is necessary for the following personnel to discuss, he just grasps a general direction, which is equivalent to saying that there is a lot of idle time.

In this case, it is a good choice to go around a bend and visit the battleship, with the help of Mu Mo, Yang Yuanzhao and Crown Prince William got a positive answer after a simple communication, and Prince William was also very interested, and personally took Yang Yuanzhao to the military port.

The military port is at the other end of Hamburg, although the distance in a straight line, only a dozen kilometers, but the distance on the road, more than three times, this is the largest port in Germany, accounting for a considerable share of Germany's cargo throughput, the traffic situation of the whole city is quite excellent, not only some roads, but also railways.

The railway needs to wait, but the highway does not need to, a convoy of 7 cars, with a simple retinue to the military port, these cars belong to the royal family, but the symbol of the vehicle is the three-pronged star that Yang Yuanzhao is very familiar with, and there is no familiar external ring.

This logo is synonymous with luxury, I thought about it for a while, briefly asked Mommer, and finally determined that the German automobile industry was not paid for by butterfly wings because of his appearance, and this logo is the logo of Daimler AG's cars. Yang Yuanzhao is an engine engineer, the history of the world's automobiles, this is his compulsory course, Daimler and Karl this time, these two Germans, almost one after the other, created the car, Kohl invented the world's first three-wheeled car, and Daimler invented the first four-wheeled car, The automobile industry can be said to take them as a www.biquge.info, and now they have established separate companies, that is, Daimler and Mercedes-Benz, I am afraid that it will not be until more than ten years later, the two companies will merge, and the famous Mercedes-Benz is born, this world-renowned brand.

Northwest because of the emergence of Yang Yuanzhao, in the automobile industry on the sprung up, from an agricultural country that can not even produce ordinary nails, to the industrial country, qualified high-power gasoline engine, reliable transmission system, shock absorption and the emergence of rubber tires, completely changed the trajectory of the world's automobile industry, but also made the car become tea, silk, porcelain, China's new business card, to Yang Yuanzhao knows, as of October 1912 statistics, the northwest automobile industry, a total of 78,000 vehicles exported, the export volume of Zào is 83 million US dollars, you know, the car that can be exported is not a simple, almost simple car like Ford, but a well-prepared, mid-range car.

However, seeing the crown prince's convoy, Yang Yuanzhao's heart suddenly sprouted an idea, the car made of zuò is relatively high-end, but compared with the real highest-end, it is still far behind, the current Mercedes-Benz BMW, is just a thin child, Ford GM, not even more opponents, in this case, why not create a high-end brand, spread in the world's high-level, dignitaries, high-end brands among the royal family.

High-end brands may not be able to make money, the world's top brands in later generations, the number of money is not much, some of the top luxury brands, and even repeatedly caught in the financial crisis, but the top brands for a country's image, for an industry The role is incomparable, which Yang Yuanzhao is clear as an industry insider.

The most outstanding power, the most luxurious configuration, and even special effects such as bulletproof, a group of people who are attracted by this are definitely the people of this world, standing on the top of the pyramid, and paying a lot of money for it, which is acceptable.

In an instant, Yang Yuanzhao made a decision, from the automobile city, the most capable force, with the most top materials that can be found in the northwest, plus the help of the all-in-one machine, to create the most luxurious vehicle, currently tentatively in two directions, strong reliability, can be protected against ordinary bullets and small-caliber artillery bulletproof type, the other is the pursuit of the ultimate speed, the power and mechanics to the extreme sports model, he believes that the two luxury cars as soon as they appear, for the whole world of the rich, are a great attraction.
