Chapter 589: Strive to Earn Foreign Exchange through Exports! Development is the last word!
At this time, the Europeans finally had a sense of a big war, because the current situation in Europe had reached a dizzying point.
From land to the sky, and then the sea began to fight again.
It's like a pot of porridge!
And a lot of advanced weapons have been used, airplanes, submarines......
The airplane, of course, came from the Pacific Empire, but the submarine was made by Europe itself.
If you want to talk about this matter, Europe also has its own technical level, and Europe itself is also studying submarines, but it turns out that the real pioneer is in the New World, that is, the one of the Southern Army during the Civil War. And later, the civil war ended, and as a result, Li Mengyang became the emperor, which made one person unbearable.
John. Holland, he was originally an Irishman, and later went to the New World, but this guy looked down on the Chinese in the extreme...... That's right, although the status of the Irish in the New World is also very low, they are the vanguard of anti-Chinese anti-Chinese, if it weren't for the appearance of Li Mengyang, then the Irish would still bully the Chinese workers to death.
So, a Chinese became the emperor of the United States, so how could John Holland stand it, so he returned to Europe. Originally, Holland came to the United States with his own design drawings, that is, the design of the submarine, but the situation changed and he went back, and his design was not supported by the British, so Holland had to find the owner.
The German Empire, at this time, was the time for copycats of all nations, and they saw Holland's design, and it felt good, so they left Holland!
Britain, France themselves have their own submarine designs, and to be honest, this thing to a large extent. It is spontaneous among the people, but the military also hopes to come up with such a thing, so the relationship is more ambiguous.
The submarines that could be launched were all human earlier. It was the same during the Civil War, so now what we have to do is to cancel the manpower and turn it into mechanical propulsion!
Let's use our brains, the British have completed this crucial step first......
In 1886 they built the Nautilus, a submarine with decent figures, with a speed of 6 knots underwater and a cruising range of 80 nautical miles.
Well, this data is simply speechless. It's still a bit of a distance away from fighting.
And Holland's submarine came out, with a speed of 7 knots and a cruising range of 150 nautical miles!
With the funding of Germany, such a submarine was created, so to speak......
Can this thing fight? It's really suspicious!
At this time, the level of technology is roughly like this, and the most important thing is that the government has not invested heavily in it. This is also normal, because whether it can be sailed underwater or not. Whether you can stay underwater all the time is a very thing in itself. We are people, not fish!
It should be said that for these two types of submarines, their speed is not as fast as the kind of manpower submarines built by the Japanese.
Yes, it only takes 7 miles an hour, and it is much faster to use human power to transmit kinetic energy. Let's kick together.
Now, at the beginning of the war, it should be said that submarine technology has developed to a certain extent, but it has not improved much.
Available off the coast of Dunkirk. The submarine is already here, and everyone has seen the power of this submarine, which is very good!
To be honest, the reason why I can fight a submarine station in Dunkirk is entirely because this place is the most advanced piece of European land from the British Isles, that is to say, the endurance is enough, and the calf will be finished no further.
So......
What a good thing!
"Comrades! We're going to speed up production! Strive to earn foreign exchange through exports! β
"Comrades! His Majesty the Great Emperor instructed us to concentrate on production and not to be half-hearted! β
"Comrades! β¦β¦β
These slogans and slogans echoed in the shipyard of Rhode Island, and the shipyard was producing the kind of black thing that looked like a long big black ball......
That's right, the submarines of the Pacific Empire!
Our research is relatively early, but there is a fault in the middle, but it doesn't matter, after Li Mengyang completed the integration of the Chinese region, this matter was continued.
In appearance, it is Li Mengyang's abstract art, and inside, it is oil and electric power, in short, an internal combustion engine is the most important source of power.
The point is, our blackfish are relatively big!
At this time, the shell is very important, because a good shell design, not to mention reducing seawater resistance, can also put down the internal combustion engine, you know, the current British and German submarines are still relatively small, so the endurance is relatively poor.
Li Mengyang played an important role!
And the design and experiment of this thing was basically completed in China, and the steel of the 11th region was used, and after the experiment was completed, it was almost taken to Rhode Island for production.
"Hey! Looking at this submarine, it's like a dream! When his ideal became a reality, Chen Daoyuan was also a little excited.
"Comrades! We still have to work hard! Speed up production! "It was the railroad tycoon Dale Carnegie who encouraged everyone.
Carnegie didn't invest in railroads before, but it turned out to be a bubble, so of course he had to find another profitable deal, anyway, it was a public-private partnership, so he was optimistic about the arms business.
In fact, in the big war in Europe, many people can see that those guys have wanted to fight for a long time, but there is no good excuse and insufficient preparation, that's all.
So now, the big war has begun, and it is obvious that the most profitable thing to sell for money should be arms, and the best one at the moment is probably this submarine!
The instructions of His Majesty the Great Emperor, we must produce submarines well, and then sell them to Europe!
Dale Carnegie was already very sure that His Majesty was not only an emperor, but also a very good businessman......
"The submarines of our Pacific Empire can sail under water for almost a thousand nautical miles! And also equipped with powerful firepower, the latest Imperial torpedo, codenamed Harpoon, only one is needed to destroy an ironclad ship......"
"Please believe in the quality of our Pacific Empire's products, the Rhode Island-class submarine is a very cost-effective submarine......"
"The Rhodes submarine can meet all the needs of your country, you can do whatever you want, and you can even secretly sail to Africa to be a pirate......
Britain, Germany, and even France, many places have Pacific Empire arms salesmen, they use a variety of languages, English, French, German, international trade, must be proficient in many Chinese.
And this submarine......
Soon, the order came!
After all, this is a war, and superiority in weapons is very crucial.
When Carnegie got the news, he was of course overjoyed, and the investment was really the right one.
In fact, it was really normal for Carnegie to invest in the arms business, because he had a lot of steel business, although those factories and mines were now also engaged in public-private partnerships.
Public-private partnership has become a joint-stock form in Li Mengyang's case, because he knows very well that if the interests are taken away, then the subjective initiative of these guys will be gone.
And when it comes to the root, whether it is the steel industry, or the military industry, the shipbuilding industry, these industries actually have to be supported by the state, and the shipbuilding industry must have a port to build a dock, so isn't this a preferential treatment given by the state?
But if these capitalists are allowed to engage in shipbuilding on their own, won't the country suffer?
In Li Mengyang's memory, it turned out that the United States in later generations was actually unclear on this point.
And there are orders for submarines here, and planes over there are also selling well!
The planes of the Pacific Empire are full of reputation, and they often go to the sky in the European Olympics...... Well, at this time, the Olympics have only been held 3 times so far.
It's not profitable, and there are too few resentful heads like Franz I.
And such a good reputation of goods, after the battle in Paris, France, immediately became popular!
"Comrades! Conscientiously complete the production task! β
"Comrades! We must support the internal war of the peoples of Europe with practical actions! β
"Comrades! Keep it up! β
Well, this actual support operation is a bit undisciplined......
In other words, Li Mengyang has been increasing his investment in the aircraft for a long time, and the production capacity is fully open, because this thing is still quite laborious with the current production process, otherwise it would not be sold so expensive.
By the outbreak of war, the Pacific Empire had a lot of aircraft in stock, and now, orders have come in like snowflakes......
This is just the beginning of the Great War, the Pacific Empire launched two fist-type products, oh, it should be said that three, aircraft and submarines are two, and one is an aunt towel, well, it was really used in medical treatment to save the lives of soldiers on the battlefield.
But now, however, the situation has become a situation where Europe is fighting indiscriminately, and our Pacific Empire is vigorously producing.
That's good! Very good!
You must know that this is only the beginning of the war, and the longer this war is fought, the more profitable Li Mengyang's Pacific Empire will be.
To be honest, when Paris in France was beaten down before, Li Mengyang was still very worried, would France surrender like this?
Fortunately, the French held on, after all, at the front, in fact, the French also had a certain advantage.
Now the situation of the war has changed again, although Stephen has taken Paris, but he cannot control the city, after all, he has too few people, and his back road is actually equivalent to being cut off, and he cannot stay in Paris for long.
Li Mengyang is really not mentally prepared for the current changes, and the first battle in his memory is not like this.
But at this point, though, it's already happening, and you can only go with it......
They beat theirs, we make real money, stable development, this is the last word!
"Comrades! His Majesty the Great Emperor has a new directive...... Development is the last word! β
