Chapter 432: The Beginning of a New Era

It has been two full months since the triumph of the great army, and the wind and snow in the north have long since turned the world into a silver white.

On the frozen bank of the Luo River, Yuan Zixiong was pointing to a large number of new factories built along the river and said to Xu Rui: "My lord, this is the new industrial park. ”

Xu Rui looked around and saw that more than a dozen new factories producing different industrial products had been built on both sides of the Luohe River, covering an area of nearly 1,000 acres, and the scale had expanded dozens of times compared with the old factories that originally used water turbines as power.

Looking at An Ge and the shareholders and representatives of Dong Dong behind him, all of them were ruddy and excited, and they were encouraged by this thriving and thriving industrial base.

Seeing this situation, Xu Rui also felt a sense of relief and pride in his heart.

The equity integration of Galaxy Group has been basically completed, and a large number of influential nobles such as Emperor Hongwei and Prince Bao, who may hinder industrial development, have been incorporated into the system of Galaxy Group, and the integration of resources has been completely completed.

Although his personal control over Galaxy Group will inevitably decline, as long as he masters the core technical team and continuously improves the enterprise management system, he will still firmly control the right to speak.

In addition to eliminating potential obstacles in advance, Xu Rui is like going public for financing, using the banner of Emperor Hongwei to strictly invest in each family, which can be regarded as a wave of leeks.

Just a rough calculation, this time the income is not even worse than the huge assets looted from Nishikawa, and this is without counting the potential benefits such as the chambers of commerce and resources of each new shareholder.

It can be said that in addition to the different operation methods and names, Xu Rui simply engaged in a real IPO (listing financing) in this world, which is the earliest financial attempt, and at the same time cleared most of the obstacles to industrial development.

In order to incubate new technological achievements as soon as possible, Galaxy Group not only invested in more than a dozen new factories in one go, but also allocated a large amount of new projects, and launched more than 30 new technology research projects.

In line with the concept of pre-research generation, research generation and production generation, Galaxy Group's technical research has finally embarked on the fast track.

And the price paid for this was that Xu Rui spent almost all of his investment, so fast that Emperor Hongwei was dumbfounded.

But as long as you look at these dozen factories that are about to be completed and put into production, as well as the emergence of new technologies that are blooming and overwhelming, both Xu Rui and Emperor Hongwei feel that all this is very worthwhile, because that is where the hope lies.

"How long will it take for the new industrial park to be completed and put into operation?"

Xu Rui tried his best to suppress his surging mood and asked in a deep voice.

Yuan Zixiong said happily: "Soon, most of the plant construction and equipment commissioning have been completed, and the first phase of the project will be put into operation in a few days, and then the new machine tools, glass, wool spinning, chemical, paper, bricks, cement, printing, and vehicle manufacturing plants will be able to start production."

Half a month later, the second phase of the project will also be completed, steelmaking, coal, casting, agricultural vehicles and other factories will also be put into operation, can produce up to hundreds of industrial products, the production capacity of the original products has also increased dozens of times, the cost will be greatly reduced.

In addition, the thermal weapons military factory is not in the industrial park, and it is being built in the mountains, which is closer to the No. 1 test base and has stronger secrecy, and is now nearing completion.

In the future, the No. A military factory will be able to produce up to 10,000 boxes of grenades, 100,000 shells of various types, and 600 cannons of various types every year. ”

Listening to Yuan Zixiong's report on the progress of various projects, everyone present was happy, especially the new shareholders and shareholder representatives.

It's all white money, and in the near future, a large part of it will fall into their pockets, and no one will be ecstatic.

Xu Rui was also very satisfied with the overall speed of the project, but still reminded: "The military factory was built for the Ministry of War, and after completion, the Ministry of War was requested to accept and take over as soon as possible."

The will of the Holy Lord, in order to keep the hot weapons secret and uniformly deployed at this stage, the production must be controlled by the Ministry of War, and for this purpose, a special department has been set up for the Divine Machine Arsenal Clearance Division, which is directly managed by the official and is responsible to the Holy Lord alone.

Galaxy Group is still only responsible for the research and development of new weapons, and if there are results, they will be purchased and produced by the Ministry of War.

After the popularization of thermal weapons, some weapons with low technical standards can be outsourced, but at that time, Xiao Shangshu will personally organize a public bidding, which may not necessarily be given to the Galaxy Group, so you still have to work hard. ”

Yuan Zixiong laughed when he heard this: "Don't worry, my lord, we will complete the construction of the military factory with quality and quantity, as for the outsourcing of weapons production, it is hard money, we have a more profitable livelihood, and it is not certain whether we can earn that hard money when the time comes." ”

As soon as these words came out, it suddenly showed the confidence of Galaxy Group, no matter what industry, only by controlling the core technology of the most upstream can we eat the most value-added cake, and sometimes this cake is even so big that it accounts for more than ninety percent of the entire cake, and there is no need to grab those dirty and tiring jobs.

At the end of the field visit to the new industrial park, fifteen exquisite carriages suddenly drove on the bank of the river, which was still very desolate, and these carriages were transformed on the basis of "breaking the army", removing the steel plate protection and fire configuration, and making great efforts in appearance and comfort.

Xu Rui designed and built this new batch of carriages according to the standards of high-end cars in another world.

Compared with traditional carriages, they not only run more smoothly, the body is more light and durable, the appearance is more technological, the interior is more luxurious and beautiful, and every detail has been carefully processed, and even the concept of ergonomics has been added.

Yuan Zixiong proudly called these carriages "Xuanyuan Yuan", which means the seat of the gods.

When fifteen brand-new Xuanyuan cars were photographed in a row and stopped in front of the shareholders, everyone was shocked by its unique streamlined design and shiny lacquer, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and subconsciously screamed "wow".

When the shareholders opened the car door, saw the fully leather-wrapped interior, sat on the top waist wrap, retracted adjustable seats, held a glass of Coke, and looked up to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the countryside through the panoramic sunroof, the surprise immediately became heartbeat.

As the new shareholder of Galaxy Group, Prince Bao did not attend today's inspection in person due to his identity, but only sent his eldest son Zhao Qi as a representative.

Zhao Qi is different from other gentlemen and grandsons, this person has always been low-key and introverted, and he is very thoughtful, so he is quite reused by his father, but today he just went to one of the "Xuanyuan Ran", and immediately moved the mind to buy this car.

Once his heart moves, his desire will be like a kitten's paws constantly scratching his heart and liver, so that he can't wait for a second, and immediately jumps out of the carriage and goes to Yuan Zixiong to ask about the suitability of buying "Xuanyuan Yuan".

But when he came to Yuan Zixiong's side, he found that almost all the shareholders were surrounding him, and it was all for the purpose of buying a car, and he was even more determined to buy the car immediately.

However, in the face of such an active buyer, Yuan Zixiong was embarrassed, it turned out that the price of "Xuanyuan Yuan" was not only as high as 7,000 taels per car, but also because the carriage factory had not yet been put into production, a total of only a few cars were produced, which was not enough for the shareholders present.

As soon as they heard that the quantity was limited, the shareholders immediately said that the price was not a problem, and as long as they could drive the "Xuanyuan Yuan" home today, they would be willing to pay more money.

You must know that the shareholders of Galaxy Group cannot be described as either rich or expensive, most of them are the core figures of the empire, and when things come to this point, it is no longer as simple as buying a car or not, but it is related to the face and reputation of each family.

When the dispute was still raging, I don't know who proposed the auction plan, and the highest price was won, fair and transparent, and all shareholders immediately agreed.

So the first shareholder vote happened naturally, and An Ge immediately took the small hammer and auctioned off the dozen or so "Xuanyuan Yuan" on the spot.

On Xu Rui's "Breaking the Army", Lin Shaodong looked at the shareholders who were blushing and still raising prices with a smile, and laughed: "My lord is really a genius who makes money, and before the factory is put into production, you will make the shareholders' money first." ”

Xu Rui said with a smile: "This is also a kind of disguised publicity, shareholders are the mainstay of my Dawei, and when they buy luxury cars with a lot of money, they will inevitably have to show off everywhere, and with their influence, it is enough to set off a new buying frenzy, and when the 'Xuanyuan Yuan' is officially offline, they will not worry about not being able to sell it." ”

Lin Shaodong gave a thumbs up and said: "Adults are tall, they are really tall, and I admire the students so much!" ”

Xu Rui glanced at Lin Shaodong and said: "You don't wear a high hat for me, they are also shareholders of Galaxy Group, and they have profit dividends when they make money, to put it bluntly, they will do things for themselves, and they will naturally spare no effort, which is the benefit of the joint-stock system."

By the way, let's not talk about this for now, how is the thing I asked you to do? ”

When it came to business, Lin Shaodong suddenly became serious: "The matter of the newspaper has been almost prepared, and I asked Liang Youxing, the best classmate in Taixue, to go out of the mountain to be the editor-in-chief."

Don't look at this classmate of mine, who has repeatedly failed to rank, but the reason is that his pen is too sharp and his views are too direct, and he is often easy to offend the examiner who marks the papers.

If I really talk about articles and talents, I dare to vouch with my life, this person is definitely not under me! ”

"Oh?"

Hearing Lin Shaodong say so solemnly, Xu Rui couldn't help but be very moved by that Liang Youxing, and said with a smile: "You think very highly of yourself, you can make you think that Yu Liang Heming must be a character, take the time to introduce me." ”

Lin Shaodong was overjoyed when he heard this: "This dare is good, when he learned that he was going to set up a newspaper, he had already excitedly put down everything at hand and threw himself on it, and the adults would be able to see him at any time." ”

Xu Rui nodded: "Then it will be chosen tomorrow, this official is now eager to find talent." Another thing is that information is the most important thing after industrial development.

The saint still doesn't understand the importance of the newspaper to the guidance of public opinion, it was with great difficulty that I won such an opportunity, and now it is all handed over to you, and from now on it will be your position, so be more attentive.

Also, this newspaper is not for profit for the time being, I will give you support from the technology development fund of Galaxy Group, the price of the newspaper must be close to the people, so that every ordinary person can afford it!

At present, the literacy rate of the people is not high, you arrange some support, walk the streets and alleys, read newspapers to people, in addition to the current political propaganda, you might as well add more anecdotes that the people like to see, even if it is to make up stories, you have to give me the first hit of the newspaper! ”

Lin Shaodong nodded and said, "Don't worry, these students have already thought of it, don't you know my idea?" ”

Xu Rui smiled: "I know that you have a lot of ideas, otherwise you wouldn't be looking for you to do such an important thing, okay, I see that Ange is almost sold over there, where are we going now?"

Hey, what is the idea between you and An Ge, and the head of the Yuan family, this investigation has become mysterious, and even I don't know the route. ”

Lin Shaodong listened to Xu Rui's complaints, a trace of mystery flashed on his face, and he said with a smile: "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, I'll take you and the shareholders to see a treasure later, if you know in advance, there will be no surprises." ”

"Oh, and the baby?"

When Xu Rui heard this, he also had a trace of expectation in his heart.
