"Dachao, haven't you always been kind to others? Why did you change your temper today and attack the academic world? This is not like your style?"
After Zhan Tianyou finished speaking, Kuang Jingyang couldn't help but ask. He was a little surprised by the abnormality of his old classmate. Zhan Tianyou sat aside, sighed slightly, and said with a wry smile: "My body can't last much longer. In the future,
The hope is still with the young people. I should say a few words for them, just hoping that China's academic style can change a little bit. Chinese scholars in the past dynasties have been keen on two things, one is to be an official, and the other is to show off. In today's era
It’s different, we need practical talents, solid education in science and engineering, mathematics, physics and chemistry, and engineering and construction!”
Kuang Jingyang nodded and said with a smile: "Dachao is right. Take the Jilin-Fenghuang Railway in front of us as an example. We have built it ourselves, so we don't have to be controlled by others. If we don't have the ability to build it, we have to rely on the South-Manchuria Railway. Write again
It is useless to write too many articles and shout nice slogans. They cannot buy you dignity, but only contempt, and at most a little pity and sympathy."
"In this huge China, only the Northeast can see some hope. It can still attach importance to science and engineering education and industrial development. The country's financial resources are very limited, but it only knows how to make some colorful decorations, which are just empty shelves!"
"Gentlemen, there is no need to lament. You can rest assured that since Fengjun has reached this point, he will never look back. He will never give up until he industrializes and builds China into a strong country."
Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Reporters and students all want to experience it on our trains. In addition, businessmen are also asking about the performance of our locomotives and whether their transportation capacity can be compared with the Japanese."
"No problem, it will only be better than the Japanese, and there will be no mistakes!" Kuang Jingyang said with a smile: "I'd like to say, where did our technology come from? You know better than me, and you can definitely beat the Japanese.
One head per person.”
As Kuang Jingyang spoke, he took the initiative to lead some people to the front of the train. Many students, reporters, and businessmen followed him to the front of the vehicle to carefully observe this completely independently produced train.
"Students and journalist friends, this locomotive can tow fifteen carriages, each weighing about twenty tons, which means it can tow a total weight of three hundred tons, which is already more than most trains running on the South Manchuria Railway.
Japanese locomotives, through the joint efforts of workers and technicians, have made breakthroughs and improved more than 300 processes, and used more than a thousand new designs on the carriages, making them more user-friendly and generally 10% more energy-efficient than locomotives imported from the West.
.”
Kuang Jingyang said, and led everyone onto the carriage to experience it for themselves. As a well-known reporter, Shao Piaoping would not miss this kind of excitement. He felt a little different from the moment he boarded the carriage.
"Mr. Kuang, why do I feel that it is easier and more comfortable to get in and out of the car? Is it an illusion?"
"Of course not. This is one of the things we have improved. In the past, the trains used in China were either imported from the West or imported from the East. Their heights were different from those of the Chinese. Some were too high and some were too low. Now this
It is completely tailor-made for the Chinese people, so the effect is of course different."
After hearing Kuang Jingyang's introduction, everyone present felt excited. This is the advantage of producing by yourself. Otherwise, you can only buy what others sell. How can there be such a humanized design?
Everyone looked inside the carriage and nodded frequently. The design style was completely oriental, which looked very comfortable. After visiting, these people couldn't help but admire it.
"Now the locomotive factory is studying a more powerful locomotive that can pull 500 tons or even 1,000 tons of cargo at a faster speed. If successfully developed, the freight volume can more than double. The same train,
It can equal the previous two columns. The students all have the desire to serve the country, but how to serve the country needs to find a suitable method. Building machines, building projects, and engaging in technology are all real things that can improve the country's military strength.
Faster, people's lives can be better, this is true service to the country!"
The more the industry develops, the more talents are needed. Northeast industry has begun to take shape, and there are talent gaps everywhere. Kuang Jingyang and Zhan Tianyou are both troubled by this. Therefore, Kuang Jingyang will not let go of this good opportunity and must guide
More students pay attention to science and engineering and natural sciences.
Putting real things in front of you is the most convincing thing. Some people have been shouting to save the country and save the people for many years, but no results have been achieved at all. But Fengjun can put a complete railway in front of everyone. Who knows?
Who is wrong? Everyone will have some thoughts in their hearts.
The opening ceremony was finally over, and immediately a large amount of goods passed through the newly built railway between Jilin and Fengtian. A month ago, the Japanese closed the South Manchuria Railway, hoping to intimidate the merchants in Fengtian.
But unexpectedly, it backfired. The Japanese's arrogant behavior actually irritated all Northeastern businessmen. The Japanese were not reliable at all, and they still had to support their own railways at critical moments.
After the ceremony, Zhang Tinglan convened a large number of businessmen and proposed the establishment of the Northeast Railway Company, openly accepting shares from the public. At the same time, he also changed the Harbin Rail Vehicle Company into a joint-stock system to encourage investment and participation.
Jilin-Fenghuang Railway is in front of us. The future of these two companies is extremely bright and the potential is unlimited. They are naturally sought after by all parties. Moreover, this lively mood directly promotes the development of Northeast Railway. The existing railways can no longer meet the requirements.
Everyone needs it.
As soon as the Northeast Railway Company was established, it faced a major task. It had to survey the entire Northeast environment and determine the construction focus of the next batch of railways as soon as possible. Many businessmen with strong capital were willing to invest large sums of money in the railway.
These people all know that railways can make a lot of money. The only trouble is that foreign powers will intervene and the technology will be controlled by others, which will increase costs. However, these are not problems in the Northeast. With the strong Feng army and strong power, self-built railways have already
Everything will fall into place.
Since the Jilin-Fenghuang Railway is built and managed by itself, the cost has been reduced by nearly half, and the freight can also be greatly reduced. Although the distance is slightly farther than the South-Manchuria Railway, the freight can be saved by 30%.
Naturally, all businessmen flock to it.
"I would like to say that the opening of the Jilin-Fenghuang Railway is just in time. It not only improves the economic and strategic situation of Northeast China, but also reshapes the confidence and image of Northeast China. The original outflow of capital has been controlled, and many people hope to reinvest.
Northeast Railway Company. As long as the railway is overhauled in the future, the minerals and land along the way will be in high demand. The three northeastern provinces will have a new investment hotspot, and their ability to attract money will be even stronger!"
Wang Yongjiang reported the situation to Zhang Tinglan. Zhang Tinglan was also very happy. After the Jilin-Fenghuang Railway was indeed built, the situation in the entire three eastern provinces was revitalized. The transportation of troops from north to south does not need to pass through the South-Manchuria Railway, and there is no need to be controlled by others.
The military has taken another solid step towards becoming completely independent.
"Mr. Minyuan, now the Beijing-Fenghuang Railway, Jilin-Fenghuang Railway, and the Middle East Road have initially been connected into a network. I am planning to implement a new policy in the three northeastern provinces. Unified freight rates. Unified commercial taxes. All goods entering the three northeastern provinces will be subject to railway freight.
Unified standards and clear settlement at one time. The same is true for commercial taxes. The three northeastern provinces including Rehe will only collect taxes once, and there will no longer be repeated taxation."
The system of the Republic of China was somewhat modeled on that of the United States, which was a loose federation. The provinces had too much independent power, and even developed to the point where each province had its own independent taxation and army, which also caused the problem of warlords everywhere.
Of course, this is not only a problem of political system, but also a technical factor. The interconnection between provinces is not good, there is no developed transportation connection, and local governments are independent. Now Fengjun controls the territory of four provinces and controls three important railways.
, the conditions for a unified economy have been met, and now that the east wind of the Jilin-Fenghuang Railway is on the table, it is just in line with the trend.
"My humble opinion is that economic unification is more important than military and political unification. I am also cleaning up the local regulations of the four provinces and striving to establish unified norms to truly bring the four provinces together and establish a unified
With a big market, we have a better chance of winning against the Japanese in this way."
When the Japanese were mentioned, Zhang Tinglan's heart also moved. The South-Manchuria Railway was definitely a piece of the Japanese heartthrob. Now that Zhang Tinglan was doing this, it was tantamount to carving out the flesh of the Japanese. Can these little devils agree?
Historically, the railways between Kyrgyzstan and Fenghuang were connected. Within two years, the Japanese launched the September 18th Incident. Although there were some accidental factors, we can also get a glimpse of the Japanese attitude. With an independent railway network, Fenghuang
The army has already got rid of the control of the Japanese and can carry out industrialization step by step. This is absolutely intolerable to the Japanese.
"Mr. Minyuan, we should thank the Russians now. If they hadn't had a civil war and attracted the attention of the Japanese, I'm afraid the Japanese would have used force against the three eastern provinces!"
"The more it develops, the more intense the conflict between us and the Japanese will become. Sooner or later there will be a battle between the two sides. In short, just be prepared."
Zhang Tinglan and Wang Yongjiang's views were not wrong at all. After Fengtian Consul General Akajiri Masasuke returned to the consulate, he hurriedly reported the situation to the country.
What he saw today has shocked him too much. Fengjun's industrial level has been advancing rapidly. Starting from light and heavy weapons, to steam locomotives, if this continues, Fengjun will be able to produce everything that the Japanese can produce.
And the price will be cheaper and the quality will be better.
Once that time comes, the Japanese will lose the entire Chinese market, and of course they will also face a powerful counterattack by the Fengjun armed to the teeth. Maybe after decades of doing so, the Japanese's dream of invading China will be completely shattered, and the situation will become even worse.
The growing Fengjun army became the number one threat in the eyes of the Japanese.
In fact, what puzzles the Japanese government the most is where Fengjun's industrial strength came from! No one can produce these things out of thin air. The Japanese already know that Fengjun obtained a batch of machines from Russia.
In addition, the Japanese also firmly believe that Fengjun must have other channels to obtain the technology and equipment of the great powers, and even receive direct support from the great powers. Otherwise, the stupid Chinese people will never achieve such achievements. Akajiri Shosuke has always been there
Efforts were made to investigate the source of Fengjun industrial equipment and technology.
"Mr. Consul General, I have a secret message for you."
After receiving the secret letter sent by the attendant, Akajiri Masasuke took a look and was immediately attracted. It clearly stated that a batch of mysterious machines had been shipped to Huludao a month ago. The machines were huge and were suspected of being metallurgical mining equipment.
After seeing the news, Akajiri Shosuke suddenly felt like he had found a treasure. It was obvious that this was what he had always wanted to track down. Akajiri Shosuke hurriedly reported the situation to the country. After the Japanese government received the report, it also acted quickly. Feng Jun immediately
Like a little tiger, it has now grown fangs and sharp claws. If it continues like this, it will definitely threaten the Japanese, and they have to be anxious.
The Japanese have been operating in China for a long time, and their intelligence network is astonishing. They soon put together the clues they found, and discovered a shocking situation. Feng Jun had recently transferred a large amount of important equipment from the Americas.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, according to accurate information, a cargo ship named Moon Goddess is sailing to Huludao carrying a batch of important machinery and equipment. Among them are large-scale industrial equipment, which is not even owned by the empire."
After hearing the news, Prime Minister Yuan Jing frowned: "Can you know what it is specifically?"
"It's not clear yet, but it is speculated that it may be steel-making equipment and large-scale forging equipment."
"Baga, no wonder the Chinese can build artillery and locomotives. We must prevent this batch of equipment from being transported to Fengtian."
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, this cargo ship belongs to the Americans. If it is intercepted, there may be international disputes?" (To be continued...)
