Chapter 51: Iwane Matsui’s Thrilled Excitement
After Zhou Wenhua decided to establish his own passenger transport airplane research and development,
he planned to set up this research and development company in the rear area, find a remote mountainous area in Yunnan to build a simple military airport, move all production equipment, engines, instrument panels, and onboard weapon systems there for research and development,
and also have the airplane engineers he would cultivate in the future or recruit, station at the factory and supervise the manufacturing of aircraft.
Just like the largest domestic aviation factory, the Central Hangzhou Aircraft Manufacturing Factory, after the all-out War of Resistance broke out, immediately transferred all production equipment for manufacturing fighter jets, retrofitting amphibious airplanes, engines, instrument panels, onboard weapon systems, and even United States airplane engineers to the rear area in Yunnan to establish a new rear area aircraft manufacturing factory.
Because this was the international land route, the Burma Road, with very convenient transportation and strategic significance.
However, Zhou Wenhua would not be so high-profile, establishing it in such a conveniently accessible place for the Japanese air force to bomb later.
He planned to establish a hard-to-attack aircraft manufacturing factory in a remote mountainous area in the rear.
After making this decision,
Zhou Wenhua continued to intensively study all kinds of foreigners’ science and technology magazines that he could collect, to search for all materials about airplanes.
During the day, he went to the Songhu Hongqiao Aviation Factory to learn airplane assembly technology and imitation technology,
and also found time to go to the China Shipyard and Jiangnan Shipyard to learn shipbuilding technology and knowledge,
of course, the time he stayed at the aircraft manufacturing factory and Jiangnan Shipyard and other places was not much, just a total of three hours,
the remaining time, he concentrated entirely on operating his newly launched various sauce business, dumplings business, and the toy business he was preparing to launch.
Moreover, he was preparing to recruit a batch of pharmacists to conduct medicine research, so that during the future war period, he could produce and sell penicillin, Bai Ri Xi, and other medicines, as well as cold medicines, etc., and prepare in advance for medicine research.
As for when Zhou Wenhua was busy with these money-making and learning matters,
the high-level executives of the foreigners’ Daimler-Mercedes-Benz Company who wanted to see Zhou Wenhua were also dodged by Zhou Wenhua,
but after hearing that they wanted to cooperate with him on automotive technology,
he agreed, and appointed Chen Ziwen, who had been promoted to the ‘New Era’ automotive company, to conduct business negotiations and cooperation with the founders of these foreigners’ automotive companies.
Although they were very displeased with Zhou Wenhua’s rude behavior,
but because Zhou Wenhua really had the masters in his automotive factory, those cultivated by Zhou Wenhua and taught automotive manufacturing technology, demonstrate the genuine new model car manufacturing technology in front of them,
all the high-level personnel of the Mercedes-Benz Company no longer held grudges against Zhou Wenhua.
Anyway, if the other party was sincerely willing to cooperate and develop new model cars with them, then whether Zhou Wenhua was there or not didn’t matter,
perhaps their side could even poach a batch of Zhou Wenhua’s automotive masters to jump ship and use for themselves.
Of course, regarding these little thoughts of the foreigners, Zhou Wenhua didn’t take them to heart, because he was massively teaching all the agents who paid to franchise, how to manufacture all automobile parts, including engine and other technologies, so he was not worried at all about the foreigners poaching his masters.
Moreover, the treatment he gave was very high, if they left, they left,
he could quickly recruit new automotive masters.
Especially since he possessed all automotive manufacturing technology in hand, he was not afraid of poaching at all.
However, at this time,
the most excited people were Qiao Zhenyu and Guo Xiaoying.
Especially Qiao Zhenyu,
something he never dreamed of was that he could really learn the latest automotive engine manufacturing technology here, and the manufacturing technology for all automobile parts,
including the refining manufacturing technology for steel, which was also taught,
although when he brought Guo Xiaoying here and found that the person teaching knowledge and technology was not Zhou Wenhua himself, he was a bit disappointed and worried about whether he could learn useful things,
whether he would really be deceived out of money by Zhou Wenhua,
but after learning truly useful automotive manufacturing technology from those automotive masters cultivated by Zhou Wenhua, and being able to participate hands-on in the actual manufacturing process,
Qiao Zhenyu and Guo Xiaoying’s excitement and exhilaration were beyond words,
even Guo Xiaoying, who thought she couldn’t learn this automotive knowledge as a girl,
was shocked by Zhou Wenhua’s rule that anyone, regardless of gender, could pay to come in and learn, and after really learning genuine automotive manufacturing technology and knowledge, as well as steel refining knowledge and technology,
Guo Xiaoying’s emotional excitement and exhilaration was in no way inferior to Qiao Zhenyu’s.
So after the two finished class,
they hurriedly returned to handler Lan Lan’s tea house,
and reported all the situation of their more than one month of learning, talking incessantly with excited expressions.
“Sister Lan! Let me tell you, that Zhou Wenhua is really a patriotic talent!”
“He is simply a person with advanced thinking. Not only can he let girls and women pay to go in and learn all automotive manufacturing knowledge and technology, but he even teaches all aspects of automobile knowledge and technology through hands-on practice, allowing us to personally participate in the manufacturing process!”
“I never dreamed that after studying at their automotive factory for more than a month, I already had quite a few instances of participating in hands-on practical operation of the automobile manufacturing process and procedures, and even their automotive production line was taught to us for operation, and the steelmaking operation in their steel factory was also openly taught to us for hands-on practical participation!”
“An industrialist like him who openly teaches all secrets is something I never even thought of, because there simply wouldn’t be such a foolish person in this world. This is a technical secret! Mastering it means mastering money, wealth, and status!”
“But this Zhou Wenhua doesn’t care about these at all. He is just like a teacher, letting the masters he teaches pass on knowledge and technology!”
“I admire his unprecedented way of passing on knowledge and technology to the utmost!”
“A person who is so selfless without being motivated by money, wealth, status, or fame, I am really seeing such a person for the first time with my own eyes!”
“So you must teach me the method. I really want to pull him into our organization. An industrialist with such a spirit of selfless dedication is truly one in a millennium!”
“We must pull him in!”
Qiao Zhenyu, who had just entered the tea house and hadn’t even sat down yet,
chattered on nonstop in one breath to Lan Lan, who was wearing a cheongsam.
And Lan Lan smiled slightly while pouring tea for them.
As for Guo Xiaoying, she was also equally emotionally excited and exhilarated, chiming in from the side.
“Zhenyu is right! This Zhou Wenhua really opened my eyes! His thinking is open and avant-garde, and he possesses genuine skills. He is simply a super excellent talent and industrialist!”
“Like me, I really never dreamed that as a girl and a student, I could actually learn and participate in the entire process of automotive manufacturing technology at his automotive factory!”
“I’ve only studied for more than a month, and I’ve already understood what the automobile manufacturing process is like, and I can really operate it hands-on in practice!”
“I’m so happy I don’t know how to express it. Anyway, I support Zhenyu in pulling this genius businessman Zhou Wenhua into our organization!”
“So Sister Lan, you have to come up with a plan for us! Because we don’t even have a chance to meet him in person now!”
Guo Xiaoying also eagerly chimed in excitedly.
As for Lan Lan, who had finished pouring the tea, she smiled slightly again.
“Alright! Then I’ll personally step in to pull him in this time!”
Then, Lan Lan rarely promised.
“Great! With Sister Lan stepping in, it will surely succeed immediately!”
Hearing this,
Qiao Zhenyu and Guo Xiaoying were overjoyed, high-fived each other, and cheered jubilantly.
While Lan Lan rapidly thought in her mind about countermeasures on how to approach Zhou Wenhua.
However, at this moment,
Iwane Matsui and Masao Okamura also received the summons reply from the Japanese Homeland Imperial Palace,
facing His Majesty’s summons, it immediately made these two old Japanese tremble all over with excitement.
Especially Iwane Matsui, who had been hoping day and night for His Majesty’s summons, he was practically shaking all over with both hands, holding that summons telegram he had just received.
So excited that tears were almost about to flow out.
