Chapter 1798: The World Exposition ends (Part 2)
At the wharf of Tianjin, the Oriental steam passenger ship loaded 1,000 tons of coal and was preparing to embark on a long journey to send the envoys of all countries back to their respective countries.
The fourth fleet's "Huo Qubing" and "General Fubo" two ironclad ships were overhauled at the Imperial Shipyard. "General Fubo" replaced the stronger steam engine and extended its service time and will continue to garrison in England.
There are two local steamships, the Kun, and the Kun, were divided from the Zhili fleet to the Fourth Fleet to strengthen control over the continent.
"I am honored to visit the World Expo. This time we feasted our eyes, all thanks to your invitation. I hope we have the opportunity to see you again." The envoys from various countries said goodbye to Chu Yun.
"In ten years, we will hold the second World Expo, and hope we will meet again at that time. We will display more exquisite and advanced industrial products at that time." Chu Yun said.
In ten years, you will be sure to come up with more novel industrial products!
These ambassadors from other civilizations smiled helplessly.
They felt like a god, with new industrial products emerging one after another, and it is estimated that the next World Expo will be the only one in China.
"Her Majesty, do you really plan to stay in the East for a longer time? How can we explain to the Congress and the cabinet when we go back?"
The English envoys had some minor conflicts before leaving, and their royal family planned to stay here for a longer time.
"I have communicated my approach to the Cabinet and Congress through telegrams. I believe they will understand, so you can go back with confidence," said Sophia.
The English embassy group had no choice but to do anything about the Queen's behavior. She could appoint a cabinet, and even if Sophia didn't have to live in London all year round, she could give orders from afar even in the east.
Of course, it wouldn't work if you were not in London, because Congress and the Cabinet would question the Queen's puppet in the East, and the power of the Stuart royal family might even be undermined.
People from other continental kingdoms have different opinions about Sophia's behavior of forcibly staying in the East for a period of time. However, they unanimously believe that England was eroded by the East and could no longer be regarded as a partner by the continent, but a "traitor".
"If this continues, England will sooner or later be controlled by the Chinese." Prince Conde of France saw Queen Sophia below on the deck of the Orient and murmured in a low voice.
The Portuguese King Joao IV was a little envious of the relationship here. He came to Dongfang Capital this time and had the intention of marrying Chu Yun into a child, so he even made a special trip to bring his daughter over.
However, Chu Yun obviously had no intention of this, but just wanted the Portuguese Kingdom under his rule to maintain trade relations with China.
While Joao IV was carrying out meaningless random thoughts, the loud whistle of the East steam passenger ship sounded, and the East was shipped by the envoys of the All Nations.
Rolling black smoke poured out of the chimney, and the Oriental left here under the escort of the Fourth Fleet Squadron.
Those who left with the Envoys of the World were also the goods they purchased at the Exposition of the World.
"What will the second World Expo look like in ten years?" Prince Kong Dai looked at the eastern capital that was gradually moving away.
"I probably won't live ten years later in the capital of the East." Koplulu of the Ottoman Empire was pessimistic.
The princes and nobles who participated in the first International Expo were old and young, and they couldn't help but look forward to the International Expo that will continue to be held in the future.
Young nobles may have the opportunity to participate in the new World Expo in the future, and some nobles who are in their twilight years may not have the opportunity to come.
Chu Yun was relieved to see the Dongfang steamship and the Fourth Fleet steamships and various merchant ships carrying cargo leaving.
In order to prepare for this World Expo, he ordered many major projects to be carried out.
It is precisely in order not to lose face, so the progress of each project is amazing. The World Expo is a kind of self-supervision.
"It's really okay if you continue to stay in the capital for a year or two? The Congress and the Cabinet have acquiesced to your approach?" Chu Yun asked Sophia who was staying in the east.
"What else can I do if they don't agree? Should I send someone here to take me back? They don't know how long it will take for them to send someone to come. When they send someone to beg me back, I have also achieved the goal of staying here for a longer time. Or do you don't want me to stay here for a longer time?" Sophia asked back.
"This is not..." Chu Yun replied, "Let's go back."
The end of the first World Expo is only the beginning.
Ten years later, the second World Expo will be held again in the Oriental Capital City. At the same time, the second international conference will be held to redeclare hegemony and consolidate the Oriental-dominated world order.
Unless the East no longer holds the World Expo, the world order dominated by the East will collapse.
"Do you have confidence in the World Expo in ten years?" Sophia asked on the way back.
“Of course there is.”
Chu Yun was full of confidence.
The first International Expo has not fully exhibited all the technologies mastered by China, and even less than 50% of them are available. In particular, more than 90% of the core technologies involved in military industry, medical industry, metallurgical industry, etc. have not been disclosed.
The second World Expo only needs to take out part of the hidden technology to deal with it.
Moreover, it can be developed in ten years, and it is enough time to prepare for some interesting and practical technologies, such as telephones, radios, and even movie machines...
"I plan to lay more submarine cables between the Eurasian continents in the near future to increase the speed of signal transmission and accommodate telephone communications. At that time, we can contact directly via telephone instead of telegram."
"Phone? Can a simple machine that can hear your voice directly?"
"It can be understood so. We can speak directly as if we were facing each other. We already have a sample machine for the phone. Do you want to go and check it out?"
"Of course!" Sofia seemed extremely excited, and she remained energetic.
Thinking of the phone, Chu Yun wanted to install a phone in the palace of England, which would make it easier to manipulate England.
He also wanted to cover the entire world in the form of telegrams, telephones and radios, and control information, which was equivalent to laying the groundwork for the future information age.
