Unlike many factories in Europe and the United States that "go it alone" in this era, Daming's industrial product quality leadership is not just based on a certain product. Even a seemingly inconspicuous product is derived from the entire industrial system.
The quality and output of Ming Dynasty are also rooted in this industrial system. Daming relies on an advanced industrial system to crush European and American products.
Europeans don't understand this at all now. In fact, even many years later, only a few people can understand his importance.
"You can't have Daming leading the entire system. If you just hire one engineer, it will definitely be impossible to produce products comparable to ours."
how so?
Does the UK really have no chance of producing bikes like theirs? Is it because of that system?
Looking at the stunned Kent, after thinking for a moment, Brian said in a rather serious tone.
"Mr. Kent, can I give you a suggestion?"
"Of course, you say."
Kent looked at him a little confused.
"If you want to produce a bike of Phoenix quality, there is a way!"
Kent asked quickly.
"any solution?"
"That is to purchase key components from Daming, then assemble and produce them, and produce ordinary components yourself. In this way, even if your quality cannot keep up with Phoenix, it will definitely be better than other British products! By then, your factory's total vehicle profit may be
A little less, but accordingly, you can produce more bikes and make more profits."
how so?
Although it was difficult for Kent to understand why an engineer could not bring him the technology he imagined, the path approved by the other party made his eyes light up.
Import raw materials from Daming and produce in the UK!
This seems like a good choice too!
In fact, for businessmen like Kent and others, they don’t have many choices. Importing high-quality parts from Daming can always solve product quality problems. This will open up the market for the product, which can at least make a certain profit!
Of course, for Daming companies, this is not a bad thing. After all, the parts market is also a market, and it can also bring extremely generous profits.
When leaving the hotel, Brian was full of gratitude. The person he was grateful to was not other people, but the man who vowed to defeat "made in daming!" If there was no affirmation, he would not even have discovered his own value.
It was precisely because of Kent that he realized that his value was actually very simple - without Ming, he was nothing.
“Oh, I can become a naturalized citizen!”
Brian was a little excited to think that he, who was still hesitant at first, no longer hesitated, and no longer needed to worry.
Becoming a Daming citizen means that he can enjoy many benefits of being a Daming citizen, such as he can pay for pension insurance, national medical insurance and unemployment insurance. These benefits can only be enjoyed by Daming people.
He has been working in Daming for seven years, has already passed the "Chinese language proficiency test", and also holds a long-term corporate visa. With all the procedures in place, he will definitely have no problem applying for naturalization as a Daming citizen.
Just when Brian made an extremely critical choice in his life, he didn't know that on this day, Emperor Zhu Da signed the document establishing the Imperial Security Bureau, and also signed multiple bills that were more confidential than ever.
.
"Hey, signing these bills is really against the principle of free trade!"
When signing the "Ming Empire Technology Control Import and Export Act", Emperor Zhu Da said with emotion.
"Technology and equipment all over the world are now freely circulating, sold, and imported. If we impose such restrictions, I'm afraid we will set a precedent..."
Is this precedent a good thing or a bad thing?
Emperor Zhu himself was not sure. After all, most of Ming's technologies came from the system mall, rather than being imported from Europe.
"Your Majesty, by setting up technology export barriers, we can ensure to the greatest extent that our technology will not be obtained by enemy countries."
Fang Zhanbo, who is the Minister of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce, said with some emotion.
"In the past ten years, we have introduced European and American technology patents and introduced European and American experts and scholars. Their arrival has directly promoted our development and improved our level. Similarly, now we are ahead of Europe in technology.
, will also encourage them to poach our people. Once they take action, it may cause a very big blow to us, Your Majesty!"
In fact, of course Emperor Zhu Da knew these things. He came from another world and he had seen too many technological blockades. Why in another world, Western countries would impose various technological blockades on China? The fundamental reason is that they learned the lessons of Soviet Russia.
.
From the 1920s to the 1940s, Soviet Russia took advantage of Western free trade and introduced a large number of technologies and technicians from Europe and the United States. Not only did they introduce complete sets of equipment and production technology, they even directly commissioned European and American countries to design warships for them.
The naval gun technology, steam turbine technology and various other technologies required for the production of warships are directly introduced. Even the factory that produces T34 tanks is directly imported from the United States. The factory building was designed by an industrial architectural design firm in Detroit.
, machines are provided by dozens of factories in the United States.
It was through the introduction of mature Western technologies that Soviet Russia became the second most powerful country in the world. Faced with this situation, the United States established the Batum Organization during the Cold War to block the source of technology from Soviet Russia.
This blockade did play a big role - Soviet Russia could only obtain some technologies through smuggling and theft, which directly affected the development of Soviet Russia.
The experience of another world... Of course, Ming Dynasty must learn from it, but what Ming Dynasty learned from was the introduction of intelligence and technology from Europe and the United States like the Soviet Union. In the past fifteen years, through targeted introduction, Ming Dynasty had no choice but to
To catch up with European and American countries in a short period of time, even now, technical personnel from Europe are still widely present in various enterprises. It is the existence of those experts and scholars that allowed Ming Dynasty, with a weak foundation, to achieve national take-off.
"This technical barrier is mutual!"
Emperor Zhu Da pursed his lips and then said.
"These bills do not need to be widely publicized. When we set up barriers, the other side will also set up barriers. Maybe they will not be able to react in a short period of time, but when they react, they will also introduce talents and technology to us.
To have an impact, if Ming Dynasty wants to develop, it must harvest the world's intellectual resources through various methods around the world, so that talents from all over the world can be used by Ming Dynasty. As for technology..."
After thinking about it, Emperor Zhu Da said.
"You can sign a corresponding confidentiality agreement through the company, and you can also strengthen technical prevention. Our technological leadership is a systematic leadership. There are many technologies, and just introducing a certain one will not solve the problem. What we want to prevent is
What? It’s technology leakage. This should be done in a commercial way as much as possible, at least..."
Emperor Zhu Da smiled and said.
"While we can still harvest European talent, it's better to keep a low profile."
A low-key is a low-key, but the Imperial Security Bureau must still be established. In fact, the Emperor had already had the idea of establishing an Imperial Security Bureau long before Fang Zhanbo proposed strengthening internal confidentiality. After all, the Investigation Bureau cannot be allowed to dominate.
In the future, the Bureau of Investigation will be specifically responsible for overseas matters.
As for the domestic affairs, let's leave it to the Imperial Security Bureau. After all, domestic counter-espionage activities also need to be carried out.
There are restrictions on business, and the country cannot relax them either, but it can quietly shoot them!
Making a fortune in silence is the last word!
"After all, our talents are limited right now. If we can cut a handful of European leeks, let's cut a handful first, and wait until..."
After a pause, Emperor Zhu Da said.
"Let's wait until we really have our own talent system!"
When mentioning his talents, Emperor Zhu Da specifically looked at the calendar - June 27th.
"In four days, it will be graduation day!"
Graduation day is July 1st. That day is the graduation day of famous schools. Every school will hold a grand graduation ceremony for their graduates.
It has been several years since I attended the graduation ceremony of Nanhua University.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Fang Zhanbo replied respectfully.
"Um."
Emperor Zhu Da nodded and said.
"When the time comes, come with me to Nanhua University and attend their graduation ceremony! After all, they are also my students!"
