Chapter 371: You can try investing in this project! There has never been a precedent for an aircraft carrier to be handed over to the Air Force? What a joke. Even if their navy does not want carrier-based aircraft, it is impossible for them to agree to hand over the aircraft carrier to the air force for command. Therefore, Redel directly rejected the request made by the Air Force. The conflict between sea and air is deep and will not be resolved for a while. So this was another meeting that ended on bad terms. But now that the . military has shifted its focus to Europe, the pressure on them has obviously become great. So they hope the Navy can produce results. The Navy did not refuse, and its only requirement was carrier-based aircraft.
Unfortunately, the Air Force disagreed. "The importance of aircraft carriers is becoming more and more obvious, but now the empire has aircraft carriers in the sky. Without carrier-based aircraft, the performance of aircraft carriers cannot be exerted at all." After raising the question, Redel also left the venue. Therefore, the conflict between the sea and the air cannot be completely resolved. Fortunately, the **** aircraft carriers of Italy and France can still barely maintain the situation in the Mediterranean. The only hope to completely change the situation lies in Speer. He is integrating shipyards in Italy and France. Once the integration is completed, a certain amount of production capacity should be able to explode. Not to mention the conflicts on the German side, Cun Yunsheng, who was in Hanoi, heard news that shocked him. That’s right! But he was very shocked. "Situ Meitang wants to see me?" Cun Yunsheng was stunned for a long time after hearing Meng Fanle's report. He really didn't expect that this person actually wanted to see him. This one is really a boss. "It's not him, it's his representative." Meng Fanglia quickly explained clearly. How could he come here in person at such an old age? Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He thought the other party was coming in person. Wondering what this old man wanted to talk to him about. And he still traveled thousands of miles across the ocean. Aren't you afraid of something going wrong with your body? But if he remembered correctly, this old man was quite strong.
After thinking about it, Cun Yunsheng felt that he still wanted to meet. After all, the other party has the label of ‘North American Chinese’ on him, especially since he also represents a group of people behind him. More importantly, the group of people behind him are quite energetic. There are them in all walks of life. Therefore, he will never suffer any loss if he meets the other party. "Let's meet him." Although he was curious about what Situ Meitang wanted from him, he thought about it and decided to meet him. Not long after, Meng Fanlao walked in with a representative of Situ Meitang. "Take a seat, this is Zheng Qiao, the representative of Mr. Situ Meitang, Prime Minister of Anliang Hall." Meng Fanglia led a man in his forties in and introduced. Anliang Main Hall is the main hall founded by Situ Meitang within the Zhigong Party. The two are actually one. "I'm honored to have Mr. Zheng here." Cun Yunsheng stood up and said with a smile. He looked up and down at Zheng Qiao, who was wearing a long gown. His eyes were bright and clear, and he was obviously dressed like a big shot. And Zheng Qiao was also looking at Cun Yunsheng. I sighed in my heart: I am so young, I am indeed better than my master. "Sir Cun, that's ridiculous. You are truly young and a hero." Zheng Qiao shook his head. He naturally had such kind words at his fingertips. After finishing speaking, both people looked at each other carefully. At the same time, a smile flashed across his eyes. "Mr. Zheng, please have some tea. I don't know if it suits your taste. I just got the Pu'er tea." Cun Yunsheng was the owner after all, pointing to the hot tea. "Not bad, very authentic. I didn't expect that Commander Cun also likes to drink tea." Zheng Qiao did not refuse, took a sip of tea and praised. This is not to flatter him, it is indeed good tea. After all, with Cun Yunsheng's current status, it's not too much to drink some good tea. After a cup of tea, it was time to talk about business. However, Zheng Qiao kept rambling, which made Cun Yunsheng frown slightly and feel a little dissatisfied. Without bothering to talk nonsense, he asked directly: "I wonder what the purpose of Mr. Zheng's visit is?" Hearing this, Zheng Qiao drank another cup of tea and chuckled. "Sir, you are asking Mr. Tan Kah Kee to recruit more technicians. Not only that, you also hope to use Mr. Tan Kah Kee's connections to purchase a large amount of machinery and equipment." "That's right." Cun Yunsheng nodded, what does this have to do with the other party. "Your requests will not be solved for a while, so Mr. Tan Kah Kee asked Mr. Situ for help. After hearing about your deeds, Mr. Situ was very interested and simply sent me over to see what it was like. A young talent." Zheng Qiao explained the cause and effect in one breath. Now Cun Yunsheng finally understood why Situ Meitang sent someone here.
It turned out to be here. "Thank you Mr. Situ for your concern. The reason why we asked Mr. Tan Kah Kee to help us is to develop our own industrial system. Why can the big powers bully us at will? Isn't it because of our industrial development? If we also have a strong industry, they will definitely not Dare to attack us so wantonly. China has almost no industrial base, so I can only rely on throwing money to quickly build an industrial base." Cun Yunsheng said with a modest smile. However, Cun Yunsheng knew that Situ Meitang sent Zheng Qiao to visit for more than that. In fact, Cun Yunsheng was right. In addition to coming to visit, Situ Meitang also had other small ideas. In other words, he is quite interested in these young talents. Especially when he learned that Cun Yunsheng was thriving in Nanyang. Especially holding Stilwell's thigh was a great advantage. So he wanted to see if Cun Yunsheng was worth investing in. You must know that the Chinese in North America are actually not having an easy time. The "Chinese Exclusion Act" alone has caused all Chinese to suffer discrimination, do the most painful and tiring work, earn meager wages, and are often exploited by white people, even black people. You can scold them at will. Why did Situ Meitang establish Anliangtang? It is to protect these Chinese compatriots. Later, I got to know the Roosevelt family (Roosevelt was a lawyer at Anliang Tang when he was running for president), and their life became a little easier, but it was only easier. In Situ Meitang's heart, he always wanted to have a powerful country that could protect them. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him alone to protect all Chinese compatriots. This is why he has been making friends with various young talents. If I hadn't befriended Roosevelt, I'm afraid life would be even more difficult now. Later, Tan Kah Kee told him that a young talent came out of Nanyang, which gave the Chinese in Nanyang a sense of dignity. At the same time, he roughly revealed the industrial technology proposed by Cun Yunsheng, with the purpose of getting Situ Meitang to help. As long as this guy is willing to speak, there will definitely be no problem. Sure enough, Situ Meitang did agree to help, but at the same time he was more interested in Cun Yunsheng. So after much thought, he finally decided to send Zheng Qiao to represent him and come over to meet Cun Yunsheng. Seeing the worried look on the other party's face, Cun Yunsheng asked: "Mr. Zheng, are you having any difficulties? If you tell me, I might be able to help. If it's really a problem, forget it." Cun Yunsheng said this just to mean that he could help a little. After all, Situ Meitang was highly regarded in history and had donated a lot of money to fight against Japan. Cun Yunsheng had to respect him for this alone. . Moreover, people with great energy may not necessarily take a little Karami like me seriously. "There's nothing wrong. I'm mainly worried about the Chinese Exclusion Act. Chief Cun probably doesn't know that we overseas Chinese have been having a hard time these past few years." After Zheng Qiao came here, he couldn't help but think of their situation in the United States. Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng's eyes flashed with coldness. Of course he knew that this infamous bill was the first bill in the world to target immigrants from a specific ethnic group. It was simply ridiculous. More importantly, this bill can be canceled, but unfortunately the Roosevelt family extended it again. So it was very ironic. "I know!" Cun Yunsheng nodded. "Does Mr. Zheng hope that I can persuade Stilwell to ask those in the White House to repeal this bill? I'm afraid the hope is very slim." "Even if I have a good relationship with General Stilwell, it's impossible for him to come forward for this matter." "No, no, no, I know this is impossible." Zheng Qiao shook his head and said. He was not stupid. It was simply impossible to repeal the Chinese Exclusion Act. Although we have been pushing for it, the hope is indeed very slim.
Cun Yunsheng was confused now. Wasn't the "Chinese Exclusion Act" repealed? What is that. "I don't know what Commander Cun thinks of the Chinese in North America?" Zheng Qiao suddenly asked something incomprehensible. "Be hardworking!" Cun Yunsheng said simply and clearly. This is a national characteristic and an excellent quality of the Chinese people. According to the logic of the game, it is a natural working body. "I see that Commander Cun purchased so many machines and equipment because he wanted to build his own industrial system?" Zheng Qiao asked curiously. "Yes." Cun Yunsheng nodded and admitted. "Chief Cun, haven't you thought about anything else? If it's something else, we can help. You know, people like me don't have a good life in the United States. We do the hardest work, earn a meager salary, and often suffer We were exploited and didn’t dare to go to the hospital when we were sick. Because we didn’t have a green card, we had to fight hard. If we couldn’t resist, we were buried on a straw mat. We were miserable.” Cun Yunsheng understood what Zheng Qiao said. Chinese people in this era are basically in the same situation. "Well, I deeply sympathize with your experience, but my ability is limited. The most I can do is ask General Stilwell to say some nice things to you. I can't really do anything else." Cun Yunsheng said helplessly with his hands spread out. . "Actually, Mr. Situ is quite interested in your previous proposal." Zheng Qiao did not answer, but talked about another thing. "What?" Cun Yunsheng was completely confused. "Lanfang Republic, this is what you said, right?" Zheng Qiao asked with a smile. Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, what he said to Hou Xifan was actually passed on to Mr. Tan Kah Kee. Cun Yunsheng was not angry about this. On the contrary, he was looking forward to the birth of Lanfang Republic. "If Commander Cun can protect Lanfang's construction, we can provide a lot of help." Taking a deep breath, Zheng Qiao said seriously. Regarding Zheng Qiao's proposal, Cun Yunsheng did not answer him, but talked about another thing. "There is a saying that if you rely on the river, the river will dry up; if you rely on the mountain, the mountain will fall, so you can only rely on yourself." "However, I will definitely give some help to the construction of Lanfang. If it is not enough, I still hope that Zhi Gong Tang will give more help." Because Cun Yunsheng knew the power of Zhi Gong Tang, if they could agree, they would probably bring countless high-level intellectuals. In that case, the construction speed will be greatly accelerated. Even if Situ Meitang can join, the burst of energy will be even more terrifying. Zheng Qiao was not a fool, so he naturally understood the meaning of Cun Yunsheng's words. In other words, he can protect you, but you must also show sincerity in court. In response, Zheng Qiao directly stated that he would contact the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in North America and there would definitely be more investment. "Senate, can they be trusted?" Meng Fanglia next to him asked worriedly. In this regard, Cun Yunsheng didn't say anything, but just smiled. Situ Meitang's reputation is still good, and as long as this big boss comes forward, many things will be done with half the effort.
"Don't worry, they are trustworthy." Cun Yunsheng said with a slight smile. On the other side, Zheng Qiao, who returned to his residence, had someone send a telegram to Situ Meitang. The above content is about investment and construction of Lanfang. Situ Meitang, who received the news, didn't say anything and directly summoned the bosses of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. They did not dare to have any objections to Situ Meitang's summons. Their ability to do business stably in the United States depends on the protection of Anliangtang, otherwise they would have been swallowed up by those white people. "I came today to discuss something with my old friends." Situ Meitang simply stated his proposal about Cun Yunsheng. "Brother Situ, please tell me what you have to say. Our Chamber of Commerce has also been greatly favored by Anliangtang over the years. I will support no matter how big the issue is." "Yes, we are all on our own. Brother Situ speaks directly." Other chamber of commerce bosses also echoed. "Okay!" Situ Meitang glanced at the audience and said slowly: "We are all our own people here, so I won't be pretentious. I have some other ideas about Lanfang. I just want to invest some money and see. How far can we go? It can be regarded as a retreat. " "The white people here don't think of us as human beings at all." "Everyone, why do we Chinese in North America live so miserably? We do not have a strong country. Now this is an opportunity. If you give up, you will still be a piglet in the eyes of others and can be slaughtered at any time." At this point, the topic is a bit heavy, but These chamber of commerce bosses are not fools, and they also know that without Anliangtang these years, they would have been swallowed up long ago. Investing in Lanfang at this time is a good choice. If they really can't survive in the future, they can go directly to Lanfang. They still understand that eggs cannot be put in one basket. "Brother Situ, as long as it is what you say, I will be the first to support it. I am willing to spend 100,000 US dollars to support brother." A big boss stood up and said loudly. "I'll take $80,000." "My $50,000" "I…" For a time, many people agreed, and most of them had received favors from Situ Meitang. Calling them here at this time must be to provide money, so naturally they cannot fall behind. (End of chapter)
