The first thing Wang Hengyue did when he arrived in Shanghai was to appoint Chen Guangfu as the general manager of the Bank of China.
This appointment is indeed a bit surprising, because not long ago, Chen Guangfu's Shanghai Commercial and Savings Bank was almost collapsed.
If it hadn't been for the intervention of a mysterious figure, perhaps Chen Guangfu, who was once famous for a while, would have ended his life with a rope.
And this mysterious figure is none other than Wang Hengyue, the President of the Republic of China!
No one knows better than Wang Hengyue that after experiencing this bank run, Chen Guangfu will truly rise from the ashes and become a giant in China's financial industry, supporting the whole world of China's banks.
!
I am not gambling, but I made the most correct appointment at the most correct time!
The president then secretly inspected the heavy industry base of the Shanghai Steel Mill. With the strong support of the government, these factories were full of vitality.
The road to becoming an industrial power is proceeding in an orderly manner under Wang Hengyue's design and expectations...
At the Shanghai Zhonghua Automobile Manufacturing Factory, Wang Hengyue also saw the "Huaxia" brand cars produced by this factory.
After the test drive, Wang Hengyue immediately spent his own money to purchase ten "Huaxia" brand cars and gave them to his family and subordinates.
To be honest, compared with American "Ford", "Dodge", etc., the indicators of "Huaxia" brand cars lag behind these famous brand cars. Even the director of the automobile factory, Wang Anfu, is improving the manufacturing process for this reason.
It was a headache to launch the "Huaxia" brand trademark and expand the market, but suddenly this "rich businessman" also named "Wang" from Nanjing made a large purchase, which made Wang Anfu surprised and excited at the same time.
But Wang Anfu didn't know that the person who bought the car was the President of the Republic of China, and the real investor of "Shanghai Zhonghua Automobile Manufacturing Factory..." and the big boss behind the scenes was also the President Wang Hengyue!
Wang Hengyue spent his own money to buy a car produced by himself. Later, when these ten "Huaxia" brand cars were shipped to Nanjing! They were distributed to Wang Hengyue's family and subordinates, and after the news spread, people immediately became popular in 〖
〗The country caused a sensation.
The president is all riding in "Huaxia" brand cars produced by China itself. This brand suddenly became famous in China!
Wang Hengyue is like giving another free advertisement for his "Huaxia" brand car.
With its reputation and sales, "Shanghai Zhonghua Automobile Manufacturing Factory..." is on the right track. As for improving the manufacturing process, Wang Hengyue is not worried at all.
Martin in the United States has sent back the news. He has taken advantage of the plummeting stock price of General Motors and bought Durant at the lowest price when Durant was in dire straits and was at a loss. Like Chen Guangfu, he almost wanted to hang himself.
Three million shares!
This means: Wang Hengyue has become the owner of General Motors!
And Twin Fulan Automobile Company is also controlled by Wang Hengyue!
Wang Hengyue successfully owned the largest automobile production company in the United States overnight!
The fate of more than half of the entire American automobile industry is already in Wang Hengyue's hands.
By controlling General Motors and Chevrolet, their technical core is no secret in Wang Hengyue's eyes. By introducing the core technology and machinery of these two American car companies, technicians will soon have a "Huaxia" brand car.
Great progress.
Wang Hengyue seemed to have ignored "Shanghai Zhonghua Automobile Manufacturing Plant..." and other factories before. In fact, he had already quietly prepared and arranged everything.
A president who sometimes likes to be public and sometimes acts in a low profile, no one can guess what he is thinking except himself. In the Shanghai Shipyard, Wang Hengyue saw the destroyer "Shanghai" manufactured by the Shanghai Shipyard.
This is a project in cooperation with the British!
The whole world knows that Wang Hengyue has a close relationship with the Americans. But at the same time, while maintaining a close relationship with the United States, Wang Hengyue is also actively seeking cooperation opportunities with the United Kingdom and France.
These great powers all have the same mentality, and the benefits cannot be taken by one country.
Jealousy and jealousy are common problems all over the world.
Wang Hengyue doesn't care who he cooperates with. The only thing he cares about is how to achieve his own goals through these cooperations and quickly realize the blueprint he designed for China.
At this stage, it doesn't matter to him even if he lowers his head temporarily...
So many years later, a biography about Wang Hengyue written by a foreigner used such unpleasant words as "treacherous, vicious, and scheming to deceive the whole world...".
After Wang Hengyue saw his biography, he stopped his subordinates' attempt to arrest the author and laughed "haha": "Well written, wonderfully written, he should be given an award."
God knows what the president is thinking...
"Shanghai will be launched next month..." Manus, an engineer specially hired from the United Kingdom, said after taking Wang Hengyue to visit the "Shanghai": "At the same time, the two destroyers 'Wuhan' and 'Guangzhou' are also
It will be launched by March next year at the latest. By then my mission will be completed..."
"Stay, Engineer Manus." Wang Hengyue said very seriously: "Although according to the cooperation agreement, you are the chief engineer appointed by the British. When the contract is completed, your mission will be over, but I still hope that you can stay.
Come down here. You can get more salary, enjoy more benefits and have a more comfortable life with me."
Manus said with a serious expression: "But my motherland is in the UK!"
Wang Hengyue bought many people with money, but not everyone can be bought with money. For example, the British man standing in front of him.
Manus has a strong sense of sanctity and belonging to his motherland, Britain. In other words, he is a staunch patriot. The power of money on him is far less than his sense of sanctity for his motherland.
Wang Hengyue thought for a moment: "Mr. Manus, you are doing the same job in the UK, day after day, year after year, and it is no different from in China. In the UK, you are doing this
There are many engineers, and your country has no shortage of them, but I am in short supply here. Seriously, I urgently need talents like you."
Manus fell silent. After all, it is a glorious thing to get the other party's affirmation and praise...
Wang Hengyue will never let go of any effort: "I will not force you to do anything. I am just asking you, as a head of state, to stay in China for three more years. After three years,
I will personally send you on the ship back to China, and name a dock at the Shanghai Shipyard after you!"
"Really?" Manus' eyes suddenly became fanatical.
He may not care about money, but he cannot care about honor.
"Manus Pier"? What a wise suggestion, an idea that is enough to make one's name resound in China, and one that is enough to make one's descendants proud of it!
"Really, I am the head of state and I will never lie." Wang Hengyue said seriously.
Manus thought there for a long time: "Okay, I accept your invitation. I will stay in China for another three years, and during these three years, I will try my best to create more products for you."
more ships and improve the manufacturing capacity and level of Shanghai Shipyard."
"Xiao Cun, thank you for accepting my invitation." Wang Hengyue said with a smile.
Wang Hengyue left the Shanghai Shipyard. When he got into the car, he said to Chiang Kai-shek beside him: "Keep an eye on this Manus...".
"What does the president mean?" Chiang Kai-shek asked.
There was no expression on Wang Hengyue's face: "He has stayed in [China] for a long time. No one knows the technical data of the ships produced by the Shanghai Shipyard better than him. Once a war breaks out, the technical data he provides will be
It will cause fatal damage to our warships! As a president, I will never allow such a thing to happen!"
Chiang Kai-shek was completely stunned.
The President will never let Manus leave. Even if Manus is determined to leave, he will become nothing more than a corpse when he leaves.
"This is true for all foreign experts in core departments."
Wang Hengyue said with a complicated expression: "We can provide them with all superior and comfortable conditions, and we can even satisfy them whatever they want. In their professional and technical fields, they enjoy privileges, and I can ignore some extraordinary actions."
Yes, but there is a prerequisite for all this. Before my goal is achieved, no one is allowed to leave [China], no one can be an exception!"
Chiang Kai-shek didn't know what the "purpose" the president said was, but he firmly believed that what the president said was right.
These foreign experts have enjoyed everything in [China] that they cannot enjoy in their own countries. [China] has also provided them with countless special conveniences, but they absolutely cannot leave. For them: [China]
, it’s a huge prison that locks them up!
All their talents must stay in this country. Before the last bit of their value is used up, they can only serve this country conscientiously.
Doing this is somewhat inhumane and unethical, but for Wang Hengyue, he has never cared about humanity, morality, and the interests of China are the only things he cares about.
Want to scold? If you want to scold, just scold yourself as hard as you want. You can call yourself a "hypocrite, a dictator" or whatever you want. You can also leave a long list of infamy in future generations.
There is only one purpose: to build a strong China!
When he walked into the room where he was resting in the Liuguo Hotel, Chen Lifu hurriedly greeted him, with a bit of panic in his expression. As soon as he saw the President, he couldn't wait to say: "President, something big happened in Shanghai!"!
