Chapter 17 Pharmaceutical Companies

With an abundant supply of steel raw materials, several industrial lathe factories built by Chen Zeyu are finally useful.

In Chen Zeyu's view, if steel is compared to the heart of industry, then lathes are the limbs and blood vessels of a country's industry.

Through these machines, the metal blank will be processed into a variety of machine parts, which means that it is an indispensable stage for the manufacture of machines such as stamping machines, mold casting machines, and forging presses. With these lathes, together with the corresponding technology and drawings, it is possible to produce and assemble a wide variety of machines and production lines for general applications.

It can be said that these are the cornerstones of the Chinese power, because in this nineteenth century, here, is the age of iron!

Centuries later, some historians in the West have been wondering how the original republic developed its first high-precision industrial lathes in the midst of a one-sided technological blockade.

Gossip aside, with the construction drawings and technical support provided by Chen Zeyu personally, and with the help of all the technical elites who can be collected in Luzon, half a month later, more than ten epoch-making ultra-precision industrial machine lathes were finally assembled.

In the huge engineering plant, Chen Zeyu, who was surrounded by many technical elites and workers, looked at the huge and exquisite industrial lathes in front of him, smiled with satisfaction, and gradually relaxed his brows. Some of the people around him knew the meaning, some didn't, but they all knew that they should have done something terrible......

In this era, no one will ever make such a perverted high-precision industrial lathe except for himself.

In order to strengthen the country, Chen Zeyu began to learn how to gradually squeeze himself.

With technology and technology, there is no longer a shortage of raw materials and funds, and the next thing is simple, all kinds of machinery factories involving people's livelihood have been established, not only the Chen family, but also the various Chinese families of Huameng have joined the industrial construction plan led by the Avalanche Group. If you need technical assistance, you can also come to Chen Zeyu's avalanche technology introduction and industrial application company to discuss cooperation.

As long as it does not involve military and heavy industry, Chen Zeyu is also negotiable. As for the ultimate power, of course, it must be in his own hands, at least during the security period set by Chen Zeyu, Chen Zeyu will not allow the existence of a second enterprise that threatens the plan.

With Chen's approval, seeing that Avalanche Machinery Lathe Company began to put into production, many Chinese businessmen immediately sent a large number of cooperation orders to this company. Downstream factories have been built on the various machines produced by this mega-enterprise factory, and many farmers around the country who used to only dig in the fields have been looking at it and investing their money in the industries they have set their sights.

While the industry is developing rapidly, the Chinese population in the entire Luzon Islands is also increasing rapidly, and Zhejiang is the first to bear the brunt of it. The population of the city, which is now gradually expanding, has exceeded 2 million people, and the population has grown at the same time as the local industrial capital.

In less than a year, Chinese capital in the Philippines has established and expanded its own industrial and mining enterprises.

Other industrial capitals such as textile mills, mould factories, electric light factories, garment factories, knife factories, paper mills, printing houses, tobacco companies, agricultural products companies, sewing machine factories, various parts factories and so on are countless.

Chen Zeyu himself also re-injected capital into several of them that he was optimistic about, which can be regarded as a share investment. The selected companies were a dye company, a cement company, a rubber company, a watch factory, and a glass factory and a typewriter enterprise. It is worth mentioning that the special pressure-resistant glass factory and watch factory were also established by his brother-in-law Wu Zuonan. Among them, Chen Zeyu also provided him with a lot of technical assistance, not to mention it.

In addition, after the coke plant produced coke, Chen Zeyu found a new idea. Coal tar is a large by-product produced after coal coking. Chen Zeyu, who was born in the chemical industry, naturally will not let go of this seemingly waste resource treasure trove, and has established several chemical fertilizers, pesticides and synthetic fiber factories. Synthetic rubber factories, companies that produce paints, fuels, explosives and calcium carbide are also indispensable.

In addition, because of several pharmaceutical ingredients, Chen Zeyu has expanded his own pharmaceutical production company.

This is Chen Zeyu's advantage as a modern person, unlike most companies in this era that discarded them, Chen Zeyu really discovered a new gold mine in it.

In addition to smooth sailing in industrial development, Chen Zeyu also encountered an incident that annoyed him.

Since the beginning of the year, perhaps someone along the coast heard the rumors, many Qing people from the mainland smuggled from Guangdong to Sizhejiang. Gradually, there were more and more people, but Chen Zeyu's people found that many people were infected with opium, and Chen Zeyu couldn't force these addicts away.

Chen Zeyu, who was gradually in a heavy mood, remembered that now in the Qing Kingdom across the sea, the circulation of opium is still a legal thing.

Originally, in history, the British illegally smuggled a large amount of opium to the Qing in order to break the trade deficit. Later, after the two opium wars, Suo completely legalized his opium trade in the Qing state. Many far-sighted people in the West are actually opposed to the opium trade, and the British strictly forbade Indian natives to smoke opium in India, where they grow opium themselves. But there has never been a shortage of scum in history, and gradually merchants from many other countries saw the huge profits in this, and the Qing Dynasty's "self-defeating" after the Opium War made this kind of drug business, which was strictly banned elsewhere, a veritable zero-risk, high-return business.

Within a few decades, to the present day, it was not only European and American opium traders who smuggled opium to the Qing Dynasty. Even the capitalist development had just begun to improve, and he himself began to buy and sell opium in the Qing Dynasty "ambitiously".

Chen Zeyu clenched his fists in pain as he thought about it, and the huge force made his joints rattle.

"Can't be in a hurry, can't be in a hurry....."

In order to calm down this situation, Chen Zeyu simply let his newly opened pharmaceutical factory develop drugs for detoxification, and it just so happened that Chen Zeyu thought about it and sorted out penicillin and penicillin in the space data.

Chen Zeyu, who majored in chemical engineering in his previous life, named his newly opened pharmaceutical factory Xinmin Pharmaceutical Company, and the main product is detoxification. After a long time, everyone knew that there was an institution in the Philippines that could treat drugs, and even many addicted Qing merchants also crossed the sea to seek medical treatment in Sizheim.

After producing penicillin, Chen Zeyu thought about it and simply got Viagra together. At that time, due to professional reasons, there was still a recipe in the notebook, so the epoch-making little blue pill appeared a century in advance. Chen Zeyu, the patent of these things, also took into account the huge impact of several of these drugs, and finally decided not to rush to register them first, and kept the formula secret for the time being.

After a few drugs were produced, there was no movement in the detoxification drugs, but Viagra quickly became famous.

Without Chen Zeyu's effort, many businessmen from all over the world who come to the Philippines to do business usually come to the door. Chen Zeyu in European countries has chosen the right agent, and the Asian side is naturally handed over to the avalanche pharmaceutical company under his own name, and Chen Zeyu has let Stern, who is far away in San Francisco, be the general agent of his company in the Americas, and Chen Xiaoge's art of cutting cakes is becoming more and more proficient.

Chen Zeyu has created a huge industry, and his Chen family has also jumped from an industrial capitalist to a super chaebol family, and even many elders who were originally friendly with them feel that they are being taken care of by this junior.

With time, machines, and plenty of manpower and capital, the speed of industry is suddenly brought into full play.

Chen Zeyu then set up an avalanche power system manufacturing plant in the southeast not far from his home to produce steam units, as the name suggests, this factory not only produces the current reciprocating steam engine, but also various types of engine machinery such as real steam turbines in the future will also begin to enter the development stage. With the drawings and technology provided by Chen Zeyu, in just a few months, the earliest diesel engines and real steam turbines were manufactured, and Chen Zeyu built another tractor manufacturing plant.

With the supply of steel and steam power systems, the shipyard expansion project at Sizhejiang Port has also begun to speed up.
