Yang Chao told Mi Qing that the issue of peace was not for her to consider, and let her just do her thing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mi Qing believes in Yang Chao's ability, mainly because she believes in Yang Chao's strength, at their level, they are no longer superstitious about personal ability, someone can do something, often because the resources in their hands are hard enough, Mi Qing knows that the resources in Yang Chao's hands are far beyond the resources in the hands of these people, at least she knows very well that the whole army is actually in Yang Chao's hands.

So Mi Qing didn't think about these problems and left with confidence.

The day is over, and the night is very lively, the day is Chinese guests, and the night is Russian guests, and the Russian guests eat full moon wine according to Chinese customs, but Olga arranges a dinner party for them.

However, everything is up to his wife's will, Yang Chao only plans to flash casually and let his wife go to activities with his compatriots.

Yang Chao has Yang Chao's activities.

After his daughter's full moon, Yang Chao also ended his leisure and it was time to deal with external affairs.

Of course, it was mainly a private matter, and he had no official status, so he was very careful not to get involved in politics.

For example, read the financial reports of your various industries in detail, and visit various companies from time to time.

Yang Chao's industry is not much, there are arsenals in Shandong, as well as a joint venture with Skoda automobile company, there is no industry in addition, Yangzi Bank has also set up branches in major prefectures, and Yangzi Bank has cooperated with as many as 1,000 industrial enterprises, and the scale of deposits and loans in Shandong accounts for half of Yangzi Bank's business, and the other half is mainly for major banks, each accounting for more than 2 billion scale.

Last year, however, Mr. Yang added a new business, namely tram operations, along with the entire Shandong passenger rail network.

Shandong's railway density is the world's first among the world's major countries, of course, not because of the Jiaoji Railway, but because of the power railway branch line that Yang Chao commissioned Siemens to build to connect various prefectures and counties.

Since the completion of these branch networks, there has been no profit, but it has always been the government operation, and there is no pressure to make a profit, although it can not be profitable, but it is convenient for the people, and the local government will grit its teeth and insist, but in the past two years, the enthusiasm of the local government has not been lost, and many railway lines have been abandoned, such as Dengzhou, Laizhou and Wuding, and most of the electric railways connecting the county have been abandoned, these three provinces are the richest places in Shandong, Dongying is in Wuding, Yantai is in Dengzhou, Qingdao is in Laizhou, With these three super cities as the foundation, these three places are not far behind.

They can't run the electric railway, but it is not a problem of economic pressure, and the most abandoned electric railway is precisely Jinan Fu, the provincial capital. On the contrary, the impoverished provinces of Yanzhou, Tai'an, Dongchang and Caozhou have preserved more railways, and the electric railways of Yizhou, Shandong's most remote and poorest mountainous prefecture, have been the best.

There are two real reasons, the first is because of the loss of money, although the local government gives subsidies, but there is no enthusiasm to continue to maintain the railway, many electric railways are in disrepair and can not continue to operate, the second is that with the development of highway transportation, Jinan, Dengzhou and other wealthy areas of the road construction into a network, the automobile industry to the railway industry strong competition caused.

But why Zhan Tianyou built the railway is still making money, Shandong's electric railway has to lose money, this is the fundamental reason why these railways have always lost money from beginning to end, Zhan Tianyou established a trunk railway, huge freight has always been the main business, and these electric railways in Shandong, Yang Chao was even to support Siemens' railway locomotive production to promote the construction, a county can not have too much freight volume, so from the beginning passenger transport occupies the largest business of these electric railways, and with the construction of highways, car transport developed accordingly.

Skoda not only produces cars but also produces a lot of buses, Germany and France and other countries are also exporting buses to China, so there are a lot of cars running on the road in Shandong, the poor like buses, private cars also let the rich have the convenience of traveling, the rich and the poor both prefer comfortable cars, and do not like more and more old, uncomfortable, not punctual, electric locomotives, even passenger transport has been hit, these regional straight lines are even more unnecessary to exist, so Jinan and other wealthy houses, It was the first to abandon the maintenance of the feeder rail network.

The parliament asked to give up, but there are still many people who prefer the railway, these cheap, with a generation of growth of the county government small railway is a lot of people childhood good meeting, usually do not care, and even prefer to take the large and small transport companies to operate the service of the bus, but when lost, they suddenly feel sorry, strongly ask the government to allocate funds to continue to keep these railways, for a time public opinion is very controversial.

Give up these branch railways, Yang Chao also felt a pity, when these railways were built, Shandong was still very poor, so the cost of land acquisition is very low, if you want to do such a big project now, the cost is almost unbearable, so it is easy to give up, it is difficult to build it in the first place.

Local governments want to abandon the railways, and sell the land along the railways, which is a large amount of income for the local government, so they are more inclined to abandon these railways, but the people's grievances make them have to worry, after all, they rely on votes to speak, but if they continue to maintain, the cost will become larger and larger, and it is really a waste of public money.

At this time, Yang Chao stood up, and he voiced his support for the small railway, hoping that the local government would carry out restructuring and hand over the branch railway to the private sector to operate, so as to improve the quality of service and compete with automobile passenger transportation for passengers. Yang Chao's voice has been supported by many people, and the government is willing to consider it, but no one is willing to take over.

After analysis, Yang Chao believes that these railways are still profitable, and the reason why they cannot compete with automobile passenger transportation is that the new automobile passenger transportation is privately operated, so the service quality is better, and the second is because the new highways are newly built and the railways are in disrepair, resulting in more timely road transportation, and railway transportation is often delayed, in short, bureaucratic operation is inefficient. As for the cost, in the case of the same full class, the unit cost of railway transportation is much smaller than that of road transportation, after all, in the case of the same burning of oil, the electricity of the train is definitely cheaper than the gasoline of the car, and the resistance of the rail is also less than that of the road, and the energy consumed to push the train of the same weight is naturally smaller.

Since the railway still has advantages, it can be improved to achieve benefits.

So Yang Chao came forward, negotiated with various local governments, took over the railways, and the local governments did not suffer losses, Yang Chao only had the right to operate, but the land attached to the railway was thrown into the hands of the government, Yang Chao did not want others to follow the example of taking over the non-performing assets from the local government, and then sell the land and other valuable industries, defraud the state-owned assets and then abscond.

Although Yang Chao did not spend a penny to take over the Shandong local railway, but he took over as much as 100 million taels of railway debt, the huge scale of the Shandong local railway, the accurate data is 5800 kilometers, absolutely beyond the actual demand, never saturated operation, so that such a railway profit, and repay the debt, is simply a miracle, no one thinks that Yang Chao can succeed.

Yang Chao's prescription for the railway is to increase input.

Starting from two aspects, the first is to improve the level of service, the second is to improve the efficiency of operation, but this is a palliative rather than a cure, to thoroughly lay the advantages of the railway over the road, we have to rely on technical support.

To improve the service level and improve the operational efficiency, Yang Chao can solve the problem, he is to play management, set up a new company, recruit the best talents, give them the best treatment, and give them shares, develop a strict management system, and promise to give dividends to all staff, improve their work enthusiasm.

After a year of reform, the operating efficiency has been improved, but the operation is still unable to maintain the balance of payments, unless it can be fundamentally changed, otherwise it will lose at least tens of millions of dollars a year.

To fundamentally improve, it depends on technology, which is not something that Yang Chao can solve.

Yang Chao's method is to hand over to the most professional people to solve, Siemens is professional enough, Shandong's electric railway network is built by Siemens, they have accumulated extremely rich experience through the construction of Shandong's electric railway network, these experiences are perfectly applied to the electrification of the Tianjin-Pudong railway, and now the electrification of thousands of kilometers of the Tianjin-Pudong railway has been completely completed.

Siemens is now the world's No. 1 giant in electric railways without any competitors, and at the same time has applied a large number of new technologies on the Tianjin-Pudong railway, which also makes their technical reserves richer.

"If you want to increase speed, our company has a lot of experience. As early as 1901, we set a world speed record of 162 km/h, and two years later, in 1903, we broke this record when our electric locomotive ran 210 km/h on the railway near Berlin, a record that no one has broken to this day. ”

The salesperson of Siemens said with a stinky fart.

This is obviously a salesman who doesn't know Yang Chao very well, and his familiar Shandong dialect doesn't seem to be learned later, so he can basically determine his identity as a German who grew up in Qingdao.

Yang Chao waved his hand: "I don't care about your records, let your chief engineer come to see me, I want to listen to the most professional explanation." ”

Yang Chao didn't have time to listen to Siemens' salesman's nonsense, Siemens sent such a person to see him, which really made Yang Chao a little angry, could it be that Siemens's spectrum was already so big, or did they think that Yang Chao's time was so worthless?

The salesman was a little pressured, and immediately stated that he would immediately notify the chief engineer, who grew up in Shandong, and he knew very well that Yang Chao could not be offended.

In the afternoon, Yang Chao met with Hans, an engineer from Siemens, the chief engineer in charge of electric locomotives.

Hans explained why he sent a salesman, not the company's senior management to talk to Yang Chao in person, after they received the news, they had sent a team of engineers from Qingdao to rush over from Qingdao as soon as possible, but first sent a salesman from Dongying to contact Yang Chao, wanting to understand Yang Chao's requirements first, but the salesman wanted to show himself too much, and lied that he represented Siemens, which led to a misunderstanding.

Yang Chao didn't care about Hans's explanation: "It's still the same sentence, I don't care about your records, what I want is the running speed, I only ask you, can Siemens' electric locomotives provide a running speed of more than 100 kilometers." What I want to build is an electric express network covering Shandong. (To be continued.) )
