The United States in 1937 did not completely extricate itself from the economic crisis. Draenau. As soon as Roosevelt became president, he delivered an impassioned speech: "The only thing we fear is fear itself."

Roosevelt also urged Congress to pass the Emergency Banking Act, the Federal Emergency Relief Act, the Agricultural Adjustment Act, the Industrial Recovery Act, the Tennessee River Basin Management Act, and other bills at an astonishing speed. Great efforts were made to reduce competition among firms by setting negotiated prices, but by 1937 the US economy had not yet recovered to half of its pre-crisis level.

Wang Liang came to the United States under such circumstances, and Wang Liang came to the United States on the orders of the Civil Affairs Department to look for all kinds of talents that Chahar urgently needs now.

Wang Liang clearly knows that the current Chahar economy is entering a period of rapid development, and new factories are breaking ground every day in Chahar. Stimulated by the news of the victory of the 37th Group Army, many business owners, businessmen, and industrialists throughout the country are very optimistic about this barren land that was not looked down upon by them before, with a strong military guarantee, a relaxed economic environment, and the exploitation of those cool officials who have plucked their feathers and become greedy and have become greedy.

In the past, no matter how high their status in the domestic business circles was and how much they had in the bank, they seemed to be a head lower than others when facing those foreign devils, especially Oriental devils, and the foreign devils could laugh and insult them at will. But now it's different, they just have to say softly: 'Don't play tricks with me, if you have the ability, go to Chahar and show me.' I promise that those people, especially myself, will obediently keep their mouths shut. The bloody facts tell the businessmen in China that without a stable environment and strong military protection, no matter how rich you are, you will be like duckweed without roots, which will be blown away by the wind at any time.

With the influx of more and more enterprises and businessmen, a very urgent question of Chahar has poured into the eyes of those in power, and there is a saying that everyone is familiar with in the future generations of "talent": what is the most precious thing in the 21st world, is talent. The same applies in the twentieth century.

More and more factories, more and more enterprises and schools, and even hospitals, factories and mines, etc., all need all kinds of talents. With so much demand, it is difficult to meet Chahar's growing needs by relying on Chahar's own talent pool and China's domestic needs, so Wang Liang's trip to a foreign country was born.

Glancing back at the huge 'Stantin' passenger ship, Wang Liang sighed softly, how much he wished that he had come to the United States on the passenger ship of his motherland at the moment, but his motherland was now not a 6,000-ton passenger ship, and even a 600-ton small passenger ship could not be manufactured.

Shaking his head, leaving the melancholy in his heart behind him first, after getting off the dock and walking forward for a while, Wang Liang saw a Caucasian woman about twenty years old, with brown hair, a slender figure, wearing a white dress, and wearing the recently crazy selling nylon stockings on her feet, parked next to a Fiat 527 luxury car, holding a piece of cardboard with her name written in Chinese, smiling slightly, Wang Liang turned around and walked towards the white woman.

The young white woman with an anxious expression saw the person with an Asian face walking towards her, her eyes couldn't help but light up, she took a few quick steps forward, came to Wang Liang, and stammered in stiff Chinese: "Hello, are you Mr. Wang Liang?" ”

With a smile, Wang Liang said in a skilled New York accent: "It's okay, this beautiful woman, you can speak English with me, I can understand it." Moreover, I am also honored to tell you that my name is Wang Liang. ”

"Oh, damn it. You know English! It's great. As soon as she spoke, the woman, who had obviously just stepped into society, suddenly covered her mouth and said embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, I said rude in front of you." ”

Wang Liang carefully glanced at the somewhat reckless woman, there were still a few cute freckles left on the straight bridge of her nose, a deliberately curled brown wavy hair increased her sense of maturity, and the angular outline of her face gave her another beauty that was different from Asian women.

"It's okay, are you the one specially sent by the watch company to pick me up?" Wang Liang showed a faint smile.

"Oh, yes, in the entire company, except for a few senior executives from Chinese countries, only I can speak a few words of Chinese, so you can see the consequences!" The white woman said as she came to help Wang Liang carry her luggage.

"Thanks, no need, having a beautiful lady carry my luggage is not the proper behavior of a gentleman, let alone a lady whose name is not yet known!" Wang Liang refused with a smile.

"Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Kathryn. Nia Lang, you may call me Kathryne, sir, you speak English so well, it's a pure New York accent, you must have spent time in New York, right? Kathleen said as she expertly started the car.

"Of course, I graduated from Columbia University's School of Social Work." Wang Liang got into the car and sat in the passenger seat as he spoke.

"Columbia University? What a coincidence, you are still my senior. Kathleen said happily as she stepped on the accelerator and the black sedan sped off.

Kathleen is a cheerful and self-familiar person, in the car she talked to Wang Liang endlessly about her college career, and talked with Wang Liang very speculatively in just half an hour on the road, which seemed to make Wang Liang relive the scene with her roommates in college, it seems that it is not unreasonable for the company to send her to pick up people.

The car soon arrived at the headquarters of the watch company on Doppler Street, and saw a Chinese man about forty years old wearing a black suit with a thin face greeting him, took the initiative to stretch out his hand, and said with a smile: "Welcome, Mr. Wang, you have worked hard all the way." I am He Zuoming, the general manager of Shouwang Company, and I will welcome you to the whole of Shouwang Company. ”

"You're welcome, Wang Liang is here to trouble you to take care of me." Wang Liang hurriedly stretched out his hand and shook hands tightly with the general manager.

He Zuoming smiled heartily: "Mr. Wang is polite, you are the person our boss named and wants to cooperate well, He Mou doesn't dare to slack off." ”

Wang Liang smiled slightly when he heard this, but did not say anything.

"Mr. Wang, please come to my office to talk. Kathleen, you go and call Joseph to come and bring Mr. Wang's luggage in. He Zuoming stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, and at the same time instructed Kathleen.

"Please!"

"Please!"

The two walked into He Zuoming's office side by side, Wang Liang couldn't help but look at it habitually, and found that the decoration inside was really good, the wear-resistant terrazzo wood floor, and the luxuriously decorated chandelier all showed a luxurious atmosphere.

Seeing Wang Liang's somewhat stunned look, He Zuoming said with a smile: "I just renovated this office, how about it, it's not bad." ”

"Well, it's good, it's very atmospheric!" Wang Liang nodded.

"No way, this office is also the face of the company. People want clothes, Buddhas want gold, if not so, foreign devils will not admit it. He Zuoming humorously quipped.

"Mr. He, you must be clear about the purpose of my visit this time, I don't know if you have any good suggestions?" Wang Liang was not polite, and asked directly to the point.

"Well, Mr. Wang, now that the economic crisis in the United States has just passed, the employment situation of ordinary foreign devils is not very good, so it is relatively easy to find ordinary talents, we have contacted more than 1,000 people at present, and they are very interested after hearing the treatment we proposed. However, some special talents, such as experts in munitions and aero engine manufacturing, are not many in the first place, and now they are distributed all over the country, and it is not easy to find them for a while, which will take time, and I hope Mr. Wang will forgive me. He Zuoming said apologetically.

Wang Liang smiled: "Mr. He is too polite, if the talent is so easy to find, he will not be called a talent." I believe that things are man-made, and the food must be eaten one bite at a time, and things must be done step by step! ”

"Hehe, thank you Mr. Wang for your understanding, you must be very tired from afar, your residence has been arranged, it is in room 308 of the Triumph Hotel. If you have any needs, please feel free to let us know. ”

"Okay, I'm not going to be polite to you, after all, our boss is the same person."

"Hehe, I'm not welcome, so you can send me a car to use first." Wang Liang was not polite, and asked for a car when he opened his mouth.

The fact that the boss of the watch company is Su Tong did not hide it from Chief Su, and almost everyone in Chahar's official face knew about it. I think that when Su Tong's father-in-law introduced He Zuoming to Su Tong, Su Tong did not hide that he planned to send him to the United States to sell socks. Who would have thought that the stockings that they had called boring by themselves would be on sale, and they were out of stock several times, and even the female employees of the watch company declared that they would rather not have a month's salary but also a pair of stockings. This also surprised our manager He Da.
