"Huh? Isn't that Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau down there? Yu Qiaqing, who was next to Zhang Jingjiang, suddenly exclaimed.

"Really? Let me see. Situ Nan was a little curious, and ordered the captain to lower the altitude and look down the window.

It was a slipway on the edge of the Huangpu River, and it looked like a shipyard, surrounded by wasteland and weeds.

The factory area is not small, several large factories are connected together, but unfortunately the factory chimney is not smoking, and the huge dock is quiet during working hours, there are few figures, only a few are alarmed by the sound of the plane and look up curiously, and soon recover the lazy face of the usual indifferent expression.

Situ Nan vaguely felt the decay below, a little disappointed, it seemed that Jiangnan Shipyard was having a hard time, shook his head and said, "It turns out that this is Jiangnan Shipyard?" No, the slipway is stopped. ”

"Yes! It's broken, I remember the last time there was a war in Europe, how prosperous the shipyard was here in Shanghai! Even the Americans ran here to order ships. Four 10,000-ton ships were built, but that's amazing! ”

Yu Qiaqing sighed, as if she missed the glory of the shipyard in the past.

"After building four ships for the Americans, Jiangnan Shipyard never took over any more big orders, and it decayed into its current state in just three or four years. What a pity! Zhang Jingjiang said regretfully.

Situ Nan disagreed with the glory of the Jiangnan Shipyard in the mouths of Yu Qiaqing and Zhang Jingjiang, although the shipyard below has been popular for a few years, it is only a false prosperity, and it is a good time to catch up with World War I, which does not mean that Jiangnan Shipyard really has the ability to produce 10,000-ton merchant ships.

When it was a shipbuilding for American merchants, the steel plates came from the Bethlehem Steel Company. The motivation came from Cummins Power. In the production process, he also relied on the hand-in-hand guidance of American engineers. Due to too many orders, the United States was not busy, so the raw materials and parts were made and sent to Shanghai for assembly.

After the war, Situ Nan once considered Jiangnan Shipyard, but considering that domestic marine steel plates could not be self-sufficient at that time, he did not do anything and concentrated resources to operate Hanyang Iron Works. Naturally. Jiangnan Shipyard has been in decline in recent years.

The story behind this, Situ Nan is not good to tell Zhang Jingjiang and them.

Now in Asia, the best selling merchant ship is the 7ooo ton merchant ship from the Meihua shipyard in South China, the merchant ship has produced a total of 2o pieces, due to the high quality and low price, this kind of merchant ship is popular with the Asian shipping community, except for Japan.

In the face of fierce competition from Nanhua and Japanese shipyards, it can only be said that Jiangnan Shipyard has been able to survive until now without going bankrupt, which can only be said to be a miracle. However, it is also about to go bankrupt. If you can go bankrupt.

"Shanghai's shipbuilding industry is going to be revived, I see. Hope still has to fall on the Jiangnan shipyard. Since the government can invest in the shipbuilding industry in Wuhan, it can't favor one over the other and let this rare shipyard in China continue to rot, right? After all, Wuhan is in the inner 6, although it is safe, at most it can build river ships, but it will never build sea ships. ”

Zhang Jingjiang said earnestly, his eyes kept observing the expression on Situ Nan's face, and thought: With Meihua's greed, how could he let Jiangnan Shipyard go?

"It makes sense, if Meihua can stand up and revitalize this leading shipyard, Shanghai's business community will welcome it."

Yu Qiaqing echoed, thinking of something, facing Situ Nan, seeing that Situ Nan did not refute, thinking that Situ Nan had listened, and said, "I see, since we want to build a deep-water port at the mouth of the Yangtze River, then simply move the steamship China Merchants Bureau over." ”

"China Merchants Steamship? That's a mess too......" Situ Nan frowned.

Like the Hanyang Iron Works, China Merchants Steamship was one of the star enterprises left behind in the late Qing Dynasty, and was once one of the largest shipping companies in Asia, comparable to the British-funded shipping giants such as Swire and Jardine Matheson.

It's a pity that the glory is only a flash in the pan, and today, yesterday's glory has long since turned into a yellow flower, and the steamship China Merchants Bureau has degenerated, even more depraved than the Jiangnan Shipyard.

Neither Jiangnan Shipyard nor China Merchants Steamship is a light solution.

"Government-run enterprises like Jiangnan Shipyard and China Merchants Steamship have problems, not only because of the external environment, but also because of their own internal problems. Just put money into it, and I don't know how many holes I have to fill? It's better to just let them be finished. Hum. ”

Situ Nan snorted coldly, as if he didn't feel cold.

Even if it was a big man like Sheng Xuanhuai at the beginning, the steamship China Merchants Bureau was in his hands, and after making some money, he wanted to go ashore and engage in real estate, pawnshops, and money business.

However, the Japanese government's practice of selling half of the steamship company to Mitsubishi seems to have some reference value for the United States and China.

"That being said, Sheng Xuanhuai is an ancient man, and only Meihua has the ability to clean up the mess left behind." Yu Qiaqing said a little unwillingly.

He also has a steamship company, which is much smaller than the China Merchants Steamship Bureau, with only a few small steamers of 1,000 tons, and he covets the China Merchants Steamship Company, but unfortunately the capital is limited, and the heart is more than enough, if he can cooperate with the United States and China, things will be much easier. It's just that Meihua will look at him and let him participate in the steamship business?

"Check it out!" Situ Nan said lightly, glanced at Yu Qiaqing, and thought: This guy is too enthusiastic, right? Persuade yourself to accept Jiangnan Shipyard and China Merchants Steamship, what do you want?

Seeing that Situ Nan was not very enthusiastic, Yu Qiaqing and Zhang Jingjiang glanced at each other, and secretly felt that it was a pity, they did not know that Meihua had invested in three shipyards in China, except for the Wuhan Shipyard, the second phase of the Longxue Shipyard in Nansha, Guangzhou, and the newly built Zhanjiang Military Shipyard were not small, and the designed slipway tonnage reached 50,000 tons, far more than the Jiangnan Shipyard that was still nested on the banks of the small river of the Huangpu River.

may feel that his tone was cold just now, Situ Nan added, and said to Zhang Jingjiang and the others: "The rice should be eaten in one bite, and Zhang Lao should know that our funds have been very tight because of the construction of the railway." ”

During the Westernization Movement, Li Hongzhang and others opened a steamship China Merchants Bureau to make money in order to make up for the lack of funds of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau. After China Merchants made money, it later participated in the establishment of important enterprises such as Kaiping Coal Mine, Hanyang Iron Works, and China International Commercial Bank.

Nowadays, the Hanyang Iron Works is not prosperous. The Kaiping Coal Mine was secretly controlled by Meihua Mining. China Commerce Bank was jointly controlled by the Wuhan government and the U.S.-China Bank. What will be the fate of the reorganization of the Bank of China, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and the China Merchants Steamship Bureau?

No one can climb to the sky in one step, they all step on the corpse in front of them and climb all the way up.

On the one hand, these bastards Li Hongzhang and Sheng Xuanhuai have harmed people a lot, and they have also left a lot of good things for future generations. Looking at China, only Meihua has the ability to clean up the two messes of Jiangnan Shipyard and China Merchants Steamship.

Yu Qiaqing thought for a while, and suddenly made a suggestion: "In fact, China Merchants Steamship still has a lot of high-quality resources, if you sell China Merchants Steamship, and then inject funds into the shipyard." Maybe ......"

As he spoke, he glanced at Situ Nan with some expectation.

Situ Nan was quite moved when he heard this, in his eyes, those pawnshops, wharves, and real estate plots of China Merchants are nothing, and Meihua already has Meihua Products Company operating similar business, and no matter how many China Merchants are this shell, it is not very useful.

smiled slightly: "Sell China Merchants, this seems to be a good note, let's take care of it when we go back." ”

Situ Nan looked at the white clouds outside the plane, the sky was blue, and his mood gradually brightened.

Yu Qiaqing is also in a good mood. His eyes were half-squinted, as if he was thinking about something. With a slight smile on his face.

As Situ Nan said, the flight time was not long, but in about ten minutes, I saw the sea and the half-buried fortress standing on the shore.

At the mouth of the Yangtze River, the Huangpu River becomes turbulent, and the tide beats the shore wave after wave, looking down from the sky, there is a unique view.

"Wusongkou has arrived, it's lively today, look, there are a lot of warships on the sea." Situ Nan was in a happy mood and said to Zhang Jingjiang and Yu Qiaqing.

At this time, Song M1 came out of the lounge next to him, and when Situ Nan was talking to them just now, this woman was unconscious and had to go to the lounge next to him to rest.

Fortunately, this is Situ Nan's passenger plane, although the lounge separated from the cabin is not as big as the special plane in later generations, but Song M1's spirit is much better at the moment, and he walked to Situ Nan's side and said: "I listened to the records you recorded in it just now, and they are really good, I want those records." Well, this plane is not bad, and it belongs to me. ”

After speaking, he looked at Situ Nan a little domineeringly.

"No problem, if you like." Situ Nan smiled, grabbed Song M1's hand and rubbed it, the reason why she was a little dizzy when she got on the plane was mainly because she had worked too hard in Shanghai for several days.

The plane landed slowly on an airfield surrounded by forests in Baoshan.

The group of bombers that I had just met in the air had already landed, lined up neatly on the ground, and judging from the busy figures surrounding the planes, the pilots and mechanics were making the best preparations for the next act.

In addition to the fortress troops, a brigade of the 6 Army was stationed in Baoshan.

The plane landed, alarming many people on the ground.

Situ Nan got out of the plane and saw two familiar faces, Sun Liren and Wang Geng were wearing straight military uniforms, walking quickly towards Situ Nan.

"How did you guys get together?" Situ Nan asked with a smile.

Sun and Wang are both friends of Situ Nan, although there is not much contact, Situ Nan has always admired these two soldiers in the United States.

"Senior Brother Wang, he abandoned the darkness and came back from the Northeast last month, and now he is the head of the tax police regiment."

Sun Liren introduced with a smile. knew that Situ Nan had no arrogance, and in front of Situ Nan, he could also let go.

Hearing that Situ Nan's plane was coming, they waited here.

Hearing Sun Liren say that he abandoned the dark and turned to the light, Wang Geng smiled and did not refute.

"Hello Mr. Situ, I didn't expect you to remember me." Wang Geng said again, and took the initiative to step forward and stretch out his hand to say hello to Situ Nan.

"Of course. We met in Paris back then, but we didn't expect to be separated for a few years, but in retrospect, the situation is much better today than it was back then, isn't it? Situ Nan said with a smile.

"Yes! I regret that I was in a hurry to return to China and could not have an in-depth conversation with Situ Nan, so I missed many opportunities. Wang Geng sighed, glanced at Situ Nan, and saw Situ Nan smiling and nodding, and secretly had some expectations in his heart. (To be continued......)
