"Yes, the commander I represent is the most powerful faction in Eastern China, defeated the 100,000 troops of Tsarist Russia on the Middle Road, our commander has always been sympathetic to the defeat of Germany, so after the end of the war in Western Europe, I was sent to seek cooperation with the German enterprises, although we represent the whole country for the time being, but the territory owned by the commander is already several times that of your country, and the population is nearly 40 million, where, in the next few years, the largest barrage dam in Asia will be built to store flood water and generate electricity. It will cost tens of millions of dollars to build this dam, and we don't have the strength and technology to do it alone, so we are now looking for the best partner, and the company on the American side has sent more than a dozen engineers, but the commander-in-chief has always trusted German technology. The United States will only be considered after Germany cannot find a suitable partner. ”

"Is that a new country that has only been established in recent years, and our company also has an agent over there, and you won a war with the Russians?" With the war, Siemens has lost contact with the mainland branch of the Republic of China, and the headquarters is a mess at this time, Arnold did not expect such a big thing to happen in the East.

"Oh God, if you want to invest in a large hydroelectric power station with tens of millions of dollars, or in that poor and backward country, please forgive me for being unreasonable. This, this is incredible. William said incredulously.

"You represent the powerful faction in the northeast of your country, our branch has developed really well over there before, but with all due respect, the news you brought is indeed too shocking, as a qualified entrepreneur, I can't choose to believe it directly for the time being." Arnold shrugged.

"At that time, I didn't believe the commander-in-chief's words, because the investment in this hydropower station has exceeded our military expenses for a year. You should know that in the East, only those who have an army in their hands can have the right to speak. If you have enough production capacity at this time, I can place an order of $300,000 for you to order some machinery for the power plant. Ding Cheng smiled understandingly.

"Okay, I'm really looking forward to working with you, but since you have allowed the U.S. to send technicians. I think we can accept the technicians we sent out. Although our country was defeated, our engineers were not inferior to those of the United States. ”

Arnold thought for a moment and said, even if he didn't believe what Ding Cheng said, but for such an unimaginably large bait as tens of millions of dollars, for any company, it is of strategic value to be able to eat such a project, which is enough to support any company, including Siemens, to take off. If it is really as the other party said, what is more meaningful is to establish a good relationship with the powerful faction in the east, and the future cooperation will be more comprehensive and extensive.

"Of course. That's what I want to say, and the commander has given me a task, and you are a very influential company in Germany, so you should be able to help me with this. Ding Cheng said.

"As long as there is business contact, I am happy to help you with some things within our ability." Arnold laughed and said that no matter what the big project was, he could now get an order for $300,000. For Siemens, it is possible to get out of the immediate predicament for a while. It is also very important.

"In addition to the huge investment in infrastructure, our commander also attaches great importance to scientific research and education, but in the Northeast, there is no such perfect education and research institutions as Germany, and I hope your company can send some technicians to the Northeast. Guide our factories to improve production processes, help us set up technical schools, and train workers. If your company has contacts with professors from some universities, you can also recommend teaching in the Northeast, of course. In terms of salary, you will not suffer your people, and you can pay it all in dollars, which is 1.5 times what it was before the war. If you decide to go, you can advance half a year's salary in advance as a settling-in expense. We have stockpiled some supplies in Western Europe and have several offices in Berlin, where we can also help with the supply of daily necessities when needed. ”

Now it is Ding Cheng's final intention, which country has bought machinery, but what the Northeast really looks up to is the German industrial model, as well as the education and training model of technical personnel.

"Yes, of course, now the price of goods in Berlin is rising too fast, the previous mark is not used, if your company can provide these conditions, I don't think we need to introduce, you can also attract a large number of people and cooperative companies." Arnold was very surprised by Ding Cheng's appetite, but he didn't expect that the other party would not just build a hydroelectric power station.

Ding Cheng smiled slightly, it was precisely to take advantage of the fact that Germany had just lost the war, domestic inflation was high, and unemployment was high, and a large number of talents were poached to go to the Northeast. In recent years, Qin Yulong has made a lot of foreign money, and in addition to a large number of infrastructure construction, there are also a large number of technology-intensive enterprises, and the talents cultivated by Northeast Independent University are far from enough. The shortage of talents in metallurgy, agriculture and chemical industry has become the most critical factor restricting the development of Northeast China. With the beginning of cooperation with Siemens, it will be a matter of course to cooperate with German military enterprises in the future.

"Jie Shou, there's something you want to do." Leaving Siemens, Ding Cheng sat in the back seat of the car and shouted to the person in the passenger seat.

"What do you command?" Xu Rui asked, tilting his head from the front.

"In this war between the Entente and the Central Powers, Britain and France recruited more than 100,000 Chinese laborers from the Republic of China to the battlefield in France, and a considerable number of people will inevitably be repatriated after the end of the war. You take two people to France for a trip, in addition to our office in France can absorb some people, you pull some people to Germany, after the war here, it is a matter of time before the construction is resumed, and the company opened by Yu Shuai in the West also needs some people. ”

"How many people are appropriate?" Xu Rui asked.

"3,000 people are planned for the time being, and it will also take a process to repatriate Chinese workers from the British and French sides, and if the situation changes later, we will deal with it." Ding Cheng thought about it for a while, at this time, Germany's domestic living materials were scarce, and it was normal for the Northeast, as the only local government that took the initiative to cooperate with Germany at this time, to enjoy some conveniences. The materials transported from the United States and even the Republic of China need a large number of workers, and as much as possible, more Chinese workers will be left in the West, once these people gain a firm foothold and integrate into local life, whether it is the Northeast to Germany to send students, military study personnel, or from Germany to the Northeast to import technology have immeasurable benefits.
