After returning from inspecting the refinery project in Palembang, Situ Nan asked Richard, "Have you had a good opportunity recently, do you want to make a small fortune?" ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. Richard wondered.

"Yes. Recently, Tokyo's economy has been a bit of a problem, and I want to knock them out. If you can trust me, just—" Situ Nan smiled mysteriously.

"Tokyo? How did you think of where? Richard shook his head, he didn't know anything about the situation in Tokyo.

"I just look down on the Japanese and think that their economy is failing. If you snipe them in the financial market, it is estimated that there will be a good gain. ”

Situ Nan said with a smile. He wasn't joking, the year before last, he set up a small game in Japan, and he waited for the Japanese to die and his family died, and he made a fortune.

"Forget it, after you knocked out $20 million, I'm not going to go crazy with you anymore." Richard refused, looking at Situ Nan with some grievances.

He is a cautious and conservative person, and he does not take unfamiliar situations lightly. At the same time, I don't want to provoke those perverse Japanese.

"That's a shame." Situ Nan said with some regret.

Back in New Tangshan, Situ Nan couldn't help but go to see the Meihua Iron and Steel Base again.

"Mr. Situ, you see, the infrastructure of the steel plant has been laid, the running water and roads have been repaired, the nearby power plant is also under construction, and the generator sets are being installed, and they will soon be electrified.

In addition, the railway connecting the wharf has been built, and coal is now being sent to the power plant. Next month, the equipment ordered from the United States will be shipped. I have technicians ready to guarantee that the steel plant will be on fire in the shortest possible time. ”

Yu Mingyu said excitedly.

"That's good." Situ Nan nodded, and said in his heart: It's a pity, I can't see that excited moment.

Iron ore imported from Western Australia has been transported to New Tangshan in small quantities, and looking at the large pile of reddish-brown iron ore in front of him, Situ Nan became interested. It was also the first time he had seen the legendary Pilbara fine iron ore.

"Have you checked it? This iron ore is fine, right? Situ Nan said with concern.

"Nope! The iron ore couldn't be better, and our engineers say it's much better than the ones on Java. Yu Mingyu said with a smile.

"What do you think, sir?"

Situ Nan smiled and handed a piece of reddish-brown iron ore to a stern-faced foreigner who was following them.

After the relationship between Nanhua and the Netherlands was restored, many Dutchmen with a keen sense of smell went to Nanhua to invest.

South China's fast-growing industry. It gave the Dutch a good opportunity, they did not still withdraw from the Indonesian archipelago, they just couldn't do whatever they wanted as they had done at the beginning.

The Dutch are the best in the world in terms of financial services awareness and experience, which is exactly what Nanhua needs to build a stable and mature market, so the Dutch are very active in banking and securities business.

Even after obtaining the consent of Meihua Company, he also participated in the preparation of the South China Stock Exchange.

The Dutchman who now stands with Situ Nan is a businessman not to be taken lightly. More precisely, Germans who invested in South China as Dutch.

Through certain connections, this particular German broke into Situnan's inspection team.

"Such high-quality iron ore is really rare, better than Norwegian iron ore, but good iron ore also needs good technology to make good steel, otherwise it will be in vain." Gustav? Krupp smiled faintly.

"Isn't Bethlehem's technology good?"

Situ Nan glanced at Gustav defiantly, and his heart was secretly refreshed. After the end of World War I, the Bethlehem Company plundered many of the advanced steel and shipbuilding technology from Germany.

"Alfred, answer that question." Gustav's face was calm, and he looked at a young man beside him who looked like him, it was his son Alfred? Krupp.

Alfred stepped forward. "German technology is the best in the world, and Krupp is the best of the best." No one can snatch our most precious things. Not even Bethlehem is like us! ”

Situ Nan saw the unwillingness and grief in the eyes of this young man who was less than twenty, and smiled in his heart.

Unwillingness, grief and indignation are the true portrayal of the current Krupp family. But what? Didn't Lao Tzu rob you Germans of synthetic ammonia technology and steel technology? Didn't the British Vickers company lease Krupp's steel patents for the production of warships to defeat the Germans?

Ironically, after the war, Vickers paid Krupp for patents based on German casualties, which gave Krupp some money to open a new factory. Secretly ran to Sweden to get a new artillery, and ran to the Netherlands to get a new submarine.

"I know, Krupp is the best. Otherwise, how could the British Vickers company pay you the royalties? Situ Nan sneered.

His words slapped Krupp in the face like a slap.

"You-"

Alfred's face immediately turned red, and he looked at Situ Nan with fire in his eyes.

"Alright. Sir, this is not a good topic. I think Nanhua needs Krupp's technology, and we should have broad prospects for cooperation. ”

Gustav said sternly, and he also held his breath in his heart.

The Germans are now in a difficult situation. In Europe, they are bullied by everyone, and even a small country like Belgium can threaten them, and the dignity of the German people has been trampled on to the point that they are not completely decent, otherwise this interesting father and son would not have taken the initiative to come to South China to find a way out.

"Hmm. You're right. I also appreciate this German technology. However, we can't afford to pay that expensive. With poor Bethlehem technology, it should be able to cope with steel mills and railroad construction, right? ”

Situ Nan smiled coldly, ignored the ugly Krupp father and son, and got into the car and left.

Krupp and his son came to Nanhua to sell, but their attitude was a little arrogant, which made Situ Nan unhappy.

In the previous negotiations with Nanhua, as soon as Krupp involved the core technology, he offered his mother-in-law a price that annoyed Situ Nan. Although he did not participate in the negotiations. But I have been watching from behind, and today I have a chance to kill the arrogance of Krupp.

Aren't the Germans poor now? It's just the right time to slaughter them so hard that they don't think they're great!

Even if the famous Krupp was like, even after Germany regained its strength twenty years later, Stuart Nan was not afraid of these Germans, they were still losers after all.

"Mr. Yu, the conditions we have offered are already very favorable. Why can't you accept it? Gustav looked at Yu Mingyu with some anger.

Yu Mingyu Situ Nan's car turned around and said with a smile to the Krupp father and son with a blue face. "Huh. Conditions. It's okay to talk slowly. But we Nanhua are poor, Mr. Krupp, you have a lot of money, so don't worry about us poor people.

If you can provide 20% less iron-making equipment and railroad equipment than Bethlehem, we will consider you. ”

"Mr. Yu, you are a lion with his mouth wide open, too insincere." Gustav retorted. Millions of dollars of equipment are reduced by another 20%. There is almost no money to be made. He didn't know that the price of the equipment provided by Bethlehem was not very high, otherwise he would vomit blood.

"Mr. Krupp, a lot of our loans come from the United States, and it is impossible to give up American equipment without a suitable reason. Unless you can also provide us with a loan, or come up with real technology, such as passivated tungsten or cannon steel. ”

Yu Mingyu said with a smile. A look like you like to sell or not.

"It's impossible, we're not going to sell these technologies." Gustav hurriedly shook his head, passivation of tungsten and cannon steel technology is Krupp's most valuable wealth, even the Americans and the British can't take it, which shows the importance of the Germans. It is even more impossible to hand it over to Nanhua lightly.

"Alright then!" Yu Mingyu spread out his hands with some regret, not wanting to continue talking with the other party anymore.

"I think both sides should show sincerity, and cooperation is beneficial to both sides." Chief of Staff of the South China Defense Forces, Marx? Bauer interjected suddenly.

It was under his recommendation that the Krupp father and son smoothly approached Situ Nan, the soul of Nanhua. Just now, he had been standing by the side, watching the conversation between Krupp father and son and Yu Mingyu, and saw that the two sides broke up unhappily. Naturally, he was going to come out and ease up.

"Mr. Krupp, though I'm interested in your stuff. However, the construction projects in South China have invested hundreds of millions of dollars, and although the amount is large, many of them have already been planned. I can't go for a light change of supplier without a good reason. I hope you understand. ”

Yu Mingyu said sincerely. It was the end of this unpleasant conversation.

Gustav clenched his fists and nodded a little blankly. He didn't expect that even the little Nanhua would dare to give Krupp a look.

Could it be that the moral will has really degenerated to such a degree? He felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.

Soon after Tunan returned home. Yu Mingyu soon came to the door.

"How? The Germans have a wonderful face, right? Situ Nan leaned back on the sofa and crossed Erlang's legs.

"Mr. Situ, isn't it a bit too much for the Germans today, in fact, their conditions are preferential, why don't you just agree to them!" Yu Mingyu said.

"You're right. It's true that the equipment provided by Krupp is not expensive, but I just don't like them that they think their technology is amazing!

I sue you, you must not be soft-hearted, you must be ruthless, and take this opportunity to slaughter the Germans fiercely. Their domestic economy is terrible, and the only thing they have in their hands is a little technology. If Krupp doesn't show his real skills, we will go directly to Germany to poach people and poach their technicians! See what to do with him? ”

Situ Nan smiled coldly.

"Digging people?" Yu Mingyu looked at Situ Nan in surprise, and said secretly: The boss is the boss, it's really ruthless. Even giants like Krupp are not in sight.

"Don't believe it. Now in order to repay the debt, Germany has sold a large number of their industrial products cheaply, and many engineers and senior technicians are so poor that they are dying of hunger, and they can just take a piece of bread and let them obediently go with us.

Like that Krupp, their factories were dismembered, sealed, countless workers were unemployed and laid off, and we recruited those workers and engineers, and they still could get the technology they wanted?

Well, we have to hurry up on this matter, you go back and tell Chen Youren that we must not only absorb immigrants from China, but also absorb German technicians who are waiting for the general population to South China. ”

Situ Nan smiled.

"Great, that's a good idea." Yu Mingyu nodded, he was usually busy with a lot of things, and he forgot to absorb German talents for a while.

"However, the Germans will not pass on the really top technology, those senior engineers must have been raised by them, and we don't expect to get advanced technology." Yu Mingyu said with a frown.

"! Just rely on Nanhua, these workers who have just put down their hoes, what high-tech products do you want to produce, and it would be good to be able to copy European and American industrial products like the Japanese. Situ Nan scolded with a smile.

The real technology is people, not drawings, without long-term accumulation, Nanhua does not want to create any advanced products.

"Hmm. That's right! Now the most important thing for us is to learn copycats, so ordinary, slightly backward technology is enough for us. Speaking of which, it still depends on cultivating talents! Yu Mingyu smiled, he thought about it for a while and immediately figured it out.

"It's good to know!" Situ Nan nodded. Although there is still a little gap between Bethlehem's technology and Krupp's, it is absolutely no problem to catch up with Krupp after 20 years of continuous investment in research.

Historically, in World War II, the shipbuilding technology of the Bethlehem Company was more than a few streets ahead of the Krupp Company, and the 10,000-ton free ship that was launched in a month was unique in the world.

In confidence in the Bethlehem Company, Situ Nan had the courage to give Krupp and his son a look.

"From now on, Nanhua has to build its own technology, otherwise even if it can get technology from the United States, it will always be controlled by others." Situ Nan admonished.

"Don't worry. Now that our Meihua Shi yàn room has been established in the university town, I believe that within ten years, we will be able to digest the technology imported from abroad and then develop our own technology. Yu Mingyu said confidently.

The Meihua Shiyàn room is a key investment and construction technology base of Meihua Company, and its research scope covers all basic sciences such as steel, petroleum, and chemical industry, in fact, it is the Academy of Sciences of South China.

Nanhua plans to send 200 young and outstanding technicians to foreign countries for advanced training every year, and after they return from their studies, they will promote the technological development of Nanhua.

"Hmm. Although South China is now poor and white, and all technologies have to be imported from foreign countries, I believe that in 10 years, South China will be different, and 20 years will be a big change. Thirty years later, no one dares to underestimate us.

Silently do not give up, have patience, and one day succeed, because we are really no worse than foreigners. Situ Nan encouraged.

After Yu Mingyu left, Situ Nan thought about it again, and said in his heart: Krupp, Krupp, I haven't looked for you yet, you took the initiative to find the door, it seems that either Nanhua is too attractive or those Germans are too hard.

At present, Stalin's father has not yet engaged in large-scale industrial construction, and the Germans have not yet hit it off with the Soviets and launched a large-scale barter.

Even if Krupp really couldn't stand the excitement and retreated, Situ Nan was not worried, it was a big deal to go directly to Germany to poach people as he said.

Situ Nan remembered his old friend Hans, the cooperation between Nanhua and Germany, and Hans should be a very good middleman.

After the First World War, Hans transferred the industry back to Germany, and in the First World War, he made a lot of money with Situ Nan, and the sufficient funds just gave him the opportunity to mix like a fish in water in the German business community, and merged many difficult enterprises, becoming a Jew who was not a Jew.
