In the early morning, after a night rain, the washed and dry roads appeared as black as oil. At this time, most of the workers on the public tram who went to take the night shift were crawling on the road. The sound of the whistle had numbed them, and the waiting for traffic jams was not the most anxious. Once they arrived on the flowing production line composed of combined machine tools, these people immediately began to rotate like the gears of a machine. This day was the same as before, from Lianyungang to Lanzhou, from Jiangsu Province to Gansu Province, and Longhai, the industrial gear of this industrial dragon that stretched across central China was operating normally as usual.

Industry, to a large extent, Longhai is industry. Lianyungang, the leader of Longhai, may be the only city in China with "the most complete industry". While the city's "financial business" has developed rapidly, no one can deny that industry is the lifeblood of this city, and the daily commuter cars traveling between cities and industrial zones also prove this.

Every morning, when tens of thousands of workers crawl on the semi-clog road and take the workers to factories far away from the city, trains travel from the inland day and night to the port city, either directly into a large assembly plant, or directly to the port. In addition to the Chinese brands, there are also English, French, Russian, Spanish, and even other words written on them. From these different words, it can be clearly seen that China, at least the industrial industry in Longhai is exporting various commodities to most of the world. At the port, thousands of tons of industrial products transported by railways are loaded on ships and sent to all parts of the world. These merchant ships are loaded with industrial products, and will eventually exchange for ships of gold for China.

All of this is precisely a reflection of the "golden wave", and the "golden wave" that accompanies the prosperity of industry has benefited from this war, but it has some "investment flavor".

"In this "speculation" that takes advantage of the European war, the country becomes a "strong country" in an instant through speculation or adventure. Companies or enterprises pursue it, and use the benefits of national policies to become rich. Therefore, there is a sentence that may best explain everything - "the country bumpkin becomes rich overnight", which may be the image explanation of "gold tide" or "golden gold".

When Mu Xiangyue reported to the Prime Minister, he directly quoted the Japanese word "Gold" in the newspaper. According to the rules of chess, once the chess piece with the weakest function and the lowest power, once the chess piece "Pus" with the weakest function and the lowest power can be obtained by the Jin general who is guarding the king's side, he calls the chess term "Gold". The word "Gold" is not only accepted by Japan, but also by China, so he did not feel any discomfort when he mentioned "Gold". Even Li Zicheng accepted it happily after hearing it.

"The first thing to "become" is the country. According to statistics from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, due to the export of military supplies to the Allies and the expansion of raw silk exports to the United States and the export of industrial finished products to the United States, Southeast Asia, India, Latin America and Africa, the total value of exported commodities in 1915 was 1.488 billion yuan, with an excess of 875 million yuan."

Listening to Mu Xiangyue's report, when he mentioned that the timeout of nearly 900 million yuan was overdue, Li Zicheng smiled. This was exactly what he pursued, or what he dreamed of when he established the ** company. Even without imagination, he knew how much wealth the company had obtained in this "golden wave", and more accurately, how much wealth he personally obtained.

"It is also under the stimulation of this unprecedented excess profit that social production has risen in an all-round way. The output value of the steel industry, chemical industry, light industry, and electricity industry generally increased by 3-10 times or even more. The steel output was 1.793 million tons in the fourth year of the Republic of China, and the ship holding tonnage reached 760,000 tons in the fourth year of the Republic of China. Under the conditions of economic prosperity, new enterprises sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the stock market also showed a lively trend. The total capital profit margin of major enterprises across the country was only 8.1% in 1914, while it reached 21.1% in the fourth year of the Republic of China.

Driven by countries that have become gold, many enterprises and individuals are flocking to the trend of "gold" with speculative and risky attitude. According to their careers, there are big and small wealthy people such as "iron turns into gold" (making money by operating steel), "ships turn into gold", "textile turns into gold", "silk turns into gold", "gaon turns into gold", "gaon turns into gold" and other big and small wealthy people..."

Listening to Mu Xiangyue's report, Li Zicheng's brows were raised from time to time. As the Premier of the State and also the Minister of Industry and Commerce, he knew all this too well. This was the drastic change he longed for and the development that this country needed.

At the turn of spring and summer in the fifth year of the Republic of China, where the golden trend is becoming increasingly fierce, industry has long become the hottest word in China and is also the most popular word. It seems that overnight, a wave of founding industry emerged across the country, and the concept of "industry saves the country" and "industry strengthens the country" have become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In the past year, China's industry has been fully developed. At the same time, the country has entered a period of great development in the industry and commerce. In the whole year, the industry and business industries in various provinces have grown at double-digit growth rates. For example, the growth rates of industrial and commercial industries in Hebei, Guangdong and the riverside areas are as high as 18%, or even as high as 20%. The generals and civil affairs ministers of various provinces were surprised to find that even if they do not charge heavy taxes, the tax revenue of industrial and commercial industries is far greater than in the past. Even when they obey the central government's orders to reduce heavy taxes, the development of industrial and commercial industries will be further promoted. In this development, they will ultimately benefit.

The "killing chickens to get eggs" and "exhausting the lake to fish" style of levying and raising taxes will not only arouse public anger, but also affect their personal reputation. Supporting the development of industrial and commercial industries can allow them to gain unprecedented wealth. Of course, facing the world-wide seller market caused by the war, the generals of various provinces are not idle. They also turn their eyes to the industry with red eyes, and invest the wealth they have gained in the past to invest in industrial investment, so as to earn personal wealth in this "galaxy" like others.

As for the construction of Dagang Industrial Zone, Shanghai Pudong Industrial Zone, Pearl River Delta Industrial Zone and Yangtze River Industrial Zone, facing the complete exemption of "exemption of taxes" and "exemption of one and two" tax incentives in these industrial zones, in order to avoid the situation of "the wealth of the province is exported to other places, making wealth of other places, and preventing the local poverty", many generals with great vision immediately responded, first, they completely exempted the heavy taxes that the industry and commerce industry needs to bear, and then. In order to "the industrial development of this province", they even issued an article.

Although a series of tax preferential policies are far less than the preferential efforts of the industrial zones founded by the central government, they can at least be guaranteed. Most small and medium-sized enterprises have been retained. After all, not everyone is willing to leave their hometowns and go to other places to invest. After all, for Chinese people, the principle of "wealth and prosperity are not returned to their hometowns, like walking in the night in the brocade" has always influenced people's thinking. Therefore, they are more willing to "create rich people" in their hometowns or to become personal careers in their hometowns.

These eventually lead to a result. Domestic powerful figures shifted their personal gaze from domestic politics to industrial wealth, from chasing power to following wealth, which is different from the past plundering of people's wealth. Now, they make wealth through industrial investment, although their first pot of gold is not necessarily clean. But this is at least a change, at least their wealth can accelerate China's development.

"...Although the industries in various provinces in China have been fully developed in the past year, while the industries in various provinces have been greatly developed, the industrial belt along the Longhai Railway has developed more rapidly. After five years of development and the "industrial transfer" in the past two years, this railway line has become the only "light and heavy industrial belt" in China, which supplies more than 85% of the machines in China. It can be said that one of the prerequisites for the full development of China's industry is the existence of the Longhai Industrial Belt."

A brow raised slightly, and a hint of pride flashed across Mu Xiangyue's face, because the past year was the year when he had fully controlled the company. Although the company was following the route formulated by Li Zicheng back then, at least this change was completed under his leadership. It is precisely because of this that he received the First Class Jiahe Medal last year, which was to commend his contribution to China's industry.

"Two years ago, the Longhai Industrial Belt could only produce less than 30,000 machine tools and complete sets of light industrial equipment in a year, and no more than 30,000 sets of light industrial equipment. At this time, driven by the market and after two years of leapfrog development, the production capacity here not only met domestic needs, but was even exported to foreign countries.

The most obvious example is the machine tool.

Machine tools are the mother of the industry. Although the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau manufactured the first machine tool as early as 1867, from 1867 to the second year of the Republic of China, China made no more than 1,000 vehicles, planers, drills, and saws, and their performance and quality were far inferior to those of Europe and the United States. It was not until the second year of the Republic of China that the Lianyungang Machine Repair Factory was established that China had a real machine tool industry. In the following two years, with the establishment of a series of machine tools such as Lianyungang Heavy Machinery Factory, ** General Machinery Company, ** Textile Machinery Factory, Xuzhou Heavy Machinery Factory, Xi'an General Machinery Company, Zhengzhou Mining Machinery Company and other machines, China had a solid machine tool industry..."

"Um,"

Nodding and interrupting Mu Xiangyue's words, Li Zicheng added.

"Machine tools are the mother of industry. Without the machine tool industry, there would be no modern country. This is the case now and the same will be true in the future!"

In the fourth year of the Republic of China, after Li Zicheng presided over the State Council, the State Council submitted the "Machine Tool Manufacturing Law" to the Congress, thus opening a bill to encourage the machine tool manufacturing industry. According to this bill, one-horsepower machine tools in the machine tool manufacturing industry can be exempted from one yuan in tax, and enterprises that purchase domestic machine tools can also receive one yuan subsidy. Although China's machine tool manufacturing industry had been established at that time, due to the needs of construction, half of the machine tools still rely on imports every year.

In April 1998, in order to accelerate the development of the company's machine tool manufacturing industry, Morgan Bank, HSBC and Huaihai Bank raised 374.5 million yuan, and sent a large-scale machine tool procurement team to the United States. While purchasing as many as 40,000 machine tools, they also purchased new large-scale presses and other large-scale machine tools. Although 20% of them were later revoked by the United States due to the needs of the United States, the procurement of this batch of machine tools still alleviated the urgent need of China's machine tool industry and paved the way for the localization of machine tools. At that time, I seized the key tail.

Just like Japan today, although Japan also ushered in the famous battle of "Tianyou" in history, this "Tianyou" seemed pale and powerless after China's competitor and comparison object. Since the beginning of last year, Japan has also sent a machine tool procurement team to the United States for industrial needs. Although they signed a contract of 36 million yen with American machine tool manufacturers, most of them were cancelled due to the needs of the United States, and the price of their machine tools was far higher than before the war. The insufficient number of machine tools seriously restricted Japan's development.

Before the European War, relying on his understanding of history and technical workers who had accumulated two years of development, the company imported a large number of machine tools from the United States, so that 60% of the machine tools exported by the United States were sold to China. At that time, Japan's number of machine tools was twice that of China, but now, China's number of machine tools was several times that of Japan. This is the most successful place in this "golden wave". After the war is over, China will have the advantageous position of overwhelming Japan.

In fact, until the beginning of the Republic of China, China had always had an economic advantage over Japan, but this advantage was that China mainly focused on light industry. Japan's heavy industry was more developed than China, and this economic advantage was not obvious. But now, an economic advantage has been formed, but China's heavy industry has overwhelmed Japanese industry in an all-round way, and is even inferior to European countries.

The advantages of heavy industry, consumer goods industry, finance industry and other industries that are now formed will eventually be fully demonstrated in a few years. By then, no matter how hard Japan works, it will not change China's overall advantages over its achievements. At that time, there will be no need for war, but only... the corners of the lips are raised lightly. Li Zicheng, who has the successful experience of later generations, clearly knows that sometimes, only through appropriate "competition" can a country fall into collapse.

"...After two years of development, while realizing the localization of machine tools, batches of new high-efficiency and high-precision machine tools began to be produced. In April 3, China had only 27,500 machine tools. Of these 5,400 were from the Army and Navy Arsenals, producing weapons and equipment, and the other 22,000 were private factories, of which 18,000 were from the ** Company, and by May 5 of the Republic of China, China had already owned 213,000 times machine tools. Among them, 23,000 machine tools belonged to the Army and Navy Arsenals, and the other 170,000 were from the private factories, and among them, as many as 140,000 were from the ** Company and its subsidiaries..."

This may show that the importance of ** company to this country also shows the development and development speed achieved along the Longhai Railway in the past two years ago. And now, the number of newly built machine tools in China is increasing at a rate of more than 50,000 units each year. By next year, it may even reach a six-digit growth rate. Of course, there is a prerequisite for all this - having enough industrial workers.

But when Mu Xiangyue said these words, there was no pride on his face, but there were more hidden worries. With the development of ** Company, this company will inevitably become an unprecedented "economic giant", and his strength is enough to influence the entire country.

Thinking of the future ** company, Mu Xiangyue couldn't help looking at Li Zicheng who seemed to be thinking. He could realize that with the "endless" development of ** company, then, there might even be a situation where "the company owns the country". Although, in the past few years, the company has been implementing the development model of "grasping the big and letting go of the small" to support small and medium-sized enterprises and establishing leading enterprises, this development has brought a side effect while further accelerating the company's development. ** company has always firmly controlled the upstream industries in various industries in China, and this

This kind of control further strengthens the company's control over the Chinese economy. It is precisely because of this that sometimes Mu Xiangyue has a "invisible Ministry of Industry and Commerce" feeling, because as long as he is willing, he can control everything. Even the section chiefs of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce need to ask the company's attitude when formulating policies, not because Li Zicheng is the Prime Minister, but because the company's influence and control power far exceed that of the government. However, in this kind of dialogue, the company is more through the so-called non-governmental organization of the industrial economy, the so-called industrial economy, to avoid the outside world's "speaking about it".

He raised his head and noticed that Mu Xiangyue's expression seemed to be a little wrong.

"Ouchu, thank you for your hard work in the past few years!"

While comforting him, Li Zicheng asked casually.

"Why, Ou Chu, are there any other questions?"

Li Zicheng has always felt a deep gratitude for Mu Xiangyue. It is precisely because of his existence that he can be the current "hands-off boss". Many people say that the company can make it today is his contribution, but only he knows that if it weren't for Mu Xiangyue, the company would probably... It is also because of this that after the company made another adjustment last year, he decided to give him 5% of the company's shares. This is not the shares of the company's subsidiary, but the shares of ** Company. Just 5% of the shares is enough to make Ouchu a top rich man in China. This is just an admission of his hard work, and of course it is also the reward he deserves.

"Zhiyuan..."

Hesitating whether to raise this concern, Mu Xiangyue finally swallowed this sentence. Perhaps, some things were not something he could change. Without a company, could China now achieve such rapid development? Obviously it is impossible. This may be the disadvantage of development.

"Actually nothing, it's just a trivial matter!"

"Ouchu, I remember that you never hide it from me!"

Li Zicheng was puzzled by deliberately making an unhappy look. What happened to Ou Chu?

"Ah... Zhiyuan, what you said is really just a few trivial things..."

He quickly put away his floating mind, and Mu Xiangyue thought about another excuse in her heart.

"Actually it's just a small matter, I don't know if I should mention it!"

"Well, let's talk about it! If you can get into the ears of the lotus tree, I think it's not a trivial matter!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.)
