Red Alert 1895 - Chapter 997
Zhu Erdian saw that the German committed suicide, which made Zhu Erdian very happy. Because since Zhu Erdian committed suicide, he would definitely offend Wang Guorui. The Germans are still playing tricks at this time and want to use materials to restrict the Chinese. Unfortunately, Wang Guorui is not the kind of fool who does not understand industry. The problem of this kind of raw materials is very important. Especially alloy materials are very rare. The Germans wanted to use this kind of hand to win the round and regain the initiative, which made Zhu Erdian almost frightened. Because once the Germans forced Wang Guorui by controlling the supply of high-grade raw materials and regained a certain right to speak, it would definitely be very detrimental to Britain, so Zhu Erdian would naturally have to defend himself.
But now that Wang Guorui has seen through the German conspiracy, Zhu Erdian is also happy and sad. If Wang Guorui sees through the German conspiracy, it means that Wang Guorui will also not fall into their conspiracy. So in this way, Zhu Erdian knew in his heart that this matter would not be solved so easily, and he had to spit out some benefits. But Zhu Erdian probably also knew that Wang Guorui would definitely start with material technology, so they would inevitably spit out something.
Sure enough, Wang Guorui quickly said: “What we need most in China at present is the technology of material science and technology. We need the technology of material science and technology first, especially various alloy materials, as well as technology of steel heat treatment, etc. These are also very important. Whether you are willing to take it out, if you are not willing to take it out, then we can talk about it when we go to the market to change technologies.”
“Of course, if you are willing to come up with material science and technology, we are willing to talk to them more!”
Zhu Erdian and Hai Jing looked at each other, they knew that this was their rival. But they also smiled bitterly in their hearts, because they knew they had no choice. Although both Zhu Erdian and Hai Jing are veteran diplomats, they know everything about this aspect. Isn’t it just two peaches killing three warriors? Wang Guorui’s two peaches killing three warriors is actually very obvious. He didn’t hide anyone at all. He just told them that he was going to play two peaches killing three warriors.
But they didn’t have any choice at all. If they refused, Wang Guorui might also choose to make a deal with the other party. If Germany refuses, then the British will definitely cooperate actively, because the British also hope to grab China’s market share as soon as possible. Even if you don’t need it that much, don’t let your opponent **** it away.
The same is true for Germany, which is bound to win, so they are very eager for the market, and they have no shortcomings in technology. Instead, technology is superfluous, and the market needs it. If there is no market, their technologies are probably useless. Therefore, it is inevitable to transfer technology.
Of course, they are not those foreign devils after all. If they were ordinary foreign devils, they might form an alliance to exploit the Chinese together. They often form an alliance to exploit the Chinese, but this is based on the fact that China’s external news is not enough, so they can unite to exploit the Chinese first, and then divide up the benefits internally.
But it can’t work now, Wang Guorui is not that kind of fool, Wang Guorui is very clear about the contradiction between the British and the Germans. The conflict between them is already irreconcilable. If China is the enemy of the second wave of Britain and Germany, the contradictions between Britain and Germany cannot be reconciled in a short time. It is not only the Chinese who understand the principle of long-distance and short-distance attack, but also the British and Germans.
China has a market, and they need it, so they have to “remote”. However, Germany and the United Kingdom are irreconcilable, so they naturally have to “close attack”. Wang Guorui is very familiar with this contradiction, so he can sit on the Diaoyutai here without fear of anything.
Haijing from Germany and Zhu Erdian from Britain also knew that Wang Guorui had seen through their backgrounds. Everyone in the three aspects understood each other, and this was the most difficult thing. Even if Wang Guorui was openly playing the trick of killing three men with two peaches, they were helpless. The three parties all understand each other, so that the three parties have no room for any conspiracy.
Even though Zhu Erdian and Hai Jing knew that this was Wang Guorui’s scheme, they both knew that they had no room for nonsense. If they dared to talk nonsense, the other party would come to **** their benefits without hesitation.
“Your Majesty, our British Empire is very superior in shipbuilding technology. Whether it is military or civilian, we have accumulated technology that the Germans cannot surpass. Our shipbuilding alloys have very good advantages. Especially our The various alloys used in the manufacture of civil ships are relatively light in weight density, but they are sufficiently hard. And our shipbuilding alloys are very resistant to corrosion. After using our alloys, the life of the ship can be extended by 100% Thirty.” Zhu Erdian said.
And Wang Guorui’s eyes brightened. If this can extend the life of the ship by 30%, it means that every three ships can be extended by 30%. The money for one ship is equivalent to making four ships. This prolongs the life of the ship by 30%, which means a huge improvement in shipbuilding. This British guy really has some accumulation, especially in sailing!
Hai Jing next to him heard this, and his eyes immediately brightened. This is also what Germany wants very much. This corrosion-resistant alloy is very good for shipbuilding. The better the corrosion resistance, the better it is on the sea. There is a lot of salt in seawater, which is very corrosive to metals. Many people are investing in research on corrosion resistance. If this can prolong the life of the ship, it is naturally better. For civilian ships, it is even more cost-saving, so that more goods can be transported with fewer ships, who would not do it!
Even the Germans don’t have this technology, so they were all very jealous when they heard that the British had brought it up in this way.
“These British people spent a lot of money to stop us.” Hai Jing thought.
However, Zhu Erdian, an old man, obviously saw Hai Jing’s enthusiasm, and immediately said: “Your Majesty, we can come up with this anti-corrosion alloy marine steel technology, but you must ensure that it will not fall into the hands of the Germans.”
“F*** ancestors!” Hai Jing cursed inwardly.
This Zhu Erdian was really ruthless enough, he actually saw his hot eyes. Originally, Hai Jing still hoped to take advantage of this opportunity to conduct some private transactions with Wang Guorui, and then get the alloy steel, which would be a big gain. Although it is a material for civilian use, not for military use, it is not a small contribution, who doesn’t like it!
But this Zhu Erdian obviously knew what he was thinking, and took the initiative to block him. Haijing couldn’t make a deal with Wang Guorui.
“Ah, Mr. Zhu Erdian, the British Empire is indeed a good friend of our China!” Wang Guorui said.
Hai Jing complained in his heart: “Who was the first to open the door to China back then, and now you say he is a good friend, I am afraid that countless people will scold you to death.”
But Hai Jing knows that politics is often hypocritical, and he naturally knows that if there are benefits, then he is a mother if there is a mother. As a leader of a country, as long as it is good for the country, and the benefits are large enough, you can call him father. Anyway, if you have milk, you are a mother. Isn’t that what being a politician is all about? Don’t say that there are morals between countries, maybe politicians have morals, but once you are in the face of national interests, your morals will be destroyed by national interests.
“Minister Hai Jing, British Minister Zhu Erdian has come up with an alloy steel material technology for civilian ships. Do you have any materials that seem to be good enough? I think we are going to build a shipyard in Rizhao, Shandong. At that time, we will also invite the British People will provide technical guidance! At that time, I think the British can dock in Shandong, and some British goods can be sold in Shandong at that time. Shandong is a populous province, which is very good!”
Hearing that the trading rights in Shandong were going to be given to the British~www.mtlnovel.com~, Hai Jing was also full of complaints. Shandong is a populous province with a large population, so the market is naturally large. Especially the several populous provinces in China, who doesn’t know that these are all fat and oily places? Although a single person may be poor, those provinces with large populations are just suitable for those good things that are cheap but sell small profits. Wang Guorui actually opened the market of some industries in Shandong to the UK, which meant that Germany also lost the market of a populous province.
In the future, some of the goods from the German industry will not be able to enter Shandong, and the loss of this market makes Hai Jing quite heartbroken. However, Hai Jing knew that he would die if he did not bleed, otherwise he would definitely be robbed by the British next. That would be a huge tragedy for Germany. Of course, he is not willing to go on like this, and naturally wants to grab the market.
“Your Majesty the Emperor, our German Empire is the number one industrial country in the world. Our German industry is unmatched even by the British Empire. Our German high-tech industry is unmatched by all countries in the world. Even , my citizens in Germany are very rigorous, and my technical content is very high. In addition, we have very deep research on military alloy steel, so we are willing to trade Kluber’s alloy armor steel. Your Majesty, look How?” Hai Jing gritted his teeth and said, obviously he also felt heartbroken, this was out-and-out bleeding, even Hai Jing couldn’t take it anymore.
