The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 635: Go to Hong Kong and capture the person

Chen Zhengwei thought for a moment and had a general idea.

Now that we have the engine drawings, the next step will certainly be to speed up the research on automobiles and tractors, which will have a huge demand for both gasoline and diesel.

Especially after cars and tractors are put on the market, the market demand for these two fuels will explode.

Chen Zhengwei didn't know much about the oil and chemical industries. Although he could poach people from other companies, that would be too slow.

There is no need for Chen Zhengwei to monopolize this kind of business.

And at his current stage, eating alone is not a good habit.

He doesn't have that much energy.

It is appropriate to cooperate with others.

The only question is who to work with.

Chen Zhengwei thought for a moment, picked up the phone and called Rong Jiacai.

"Send a telegram to Xu Yan. A large amount of oil has been discovered in Pennsylvania. I plan to find someone to cooperate with me. Ask him to visit the Rockefeller family, Ted Brothers Oil Company, and Pennsylvania Rock Oil Company. See what conditions they can offer."

"Then you can collect some information about these companies."

Chen Zhengwei hung up the phone and sat there thinking for a while. In fact, he originally wanted to cooperate with Rockefeller Company.

Then he looked for an opportunity to swallow up the Rockefeller Company, but later he realized it was unnecessary.

After all, at his point, there is no need to be afraid of anyone, let alone the future development of any company.

He is the most amazing one.

He only needs to extend his tentacles into all walks of life like a spider weaving a web, tie some people together with himself, and then he can control the country.

So he just needs to see who offers the best price.

Then Chen Zhengwei picked up the pen and continued drawing, this time he drew a tank.

There is no rush for tanks.

Even if he sells smokeless gunpowder this year, he has nothing to worry about. He has absolute dominance on the battlefield.

The same dominance applies to gangs in the United States.

So he doesn't need to worry about these things causing him any trouble.

A moment later, there was a knock on the office door.

"Brother Wei, they're awake!" Ah Cheng's voice came from outside the door.

"Let them come."

A moment later, several experts with messy hair were brought in.

"Mr. Chen!" several people said respectfully.

"Sit down, gentlemen. Now let's talk about those drawings." Chen Zhengwei folded his arms and waited for them to explain the situation.

"One of the engine drawings is an improvement on the Otto cycle engine. The improvement is very significant. According to the design, the engine is more compact and efficient. And it is obviously not driven by gas, but by some kind of liquid fuel. The specific situation requires the manufacture of a physical object for experimentation." said an expert.

"Are there any technical problems? For example, materials?" Chen Zhengwei asked. He knew very well that there was no problem with the drawing.

"There are no major problems with materials. However, the requirements for materials are higher, the cost will be very high, and the output is also a problem. In addition, as I just said, a prototype needs to be manufactured for testing."

"Mr. Chen, who is the designer of this drawing? What fuel is used? Although it has not been verified yet, it is obvious that he has a very deep understanding of the Otto cycle engine! Is it Nikolaus Otto himself?" The expert was more concerned about this issue.

He really wanted to chat with the other person and discuss his ideas.

"You don't need to know the designer." Chen Zhengwei said. "I can tell you the fuel, it's gasoline."

"Gasoline?" The other party looked surprised. Gasoline is now only used as a solvent or for other chemical purposes.

Rather than as fuel.

"You guys keep talking."

"Another engine blueprint has a complex high-pressure fuel system and a boost device, and many parts are thickened to make it stronger. This is obviously not necessary! Even if it is powered by gasoline, it is not necessary." Another person said.

"Of course it's not necessary. This engine runs on diesel!" Chen Zhengwei knocked on the table.

The expert was also surprised.

The two boxes of drawings that Chen Zhengwei took out were actually one powered by gasoline and the other by diesel.

They could understand the structure of the blueprint and the purpose of some positions, but the specific effects of the two fuels on the user were still unclear.

After all, they had never seen or come into contact with each other.

"Are you interested in working in my laboratory? Lead a team to manufacture and research these two sets of equipment, and you can also bring your own assistants." Chen Zhengwei asked.

"If the research is successful, there will be a generous bonus."

"You need to sign a confidentiality agreement and a non-compete agreement. If you leave the lab after the research is successful, you can no longer continue related research. But the bonus is enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life."

"Of course, you can also continue to work in the laboratory. My laboratory is always short of people."

"I'm fine..." one of the experts said immediately.

Although they did not know the specific situation of Chen Zhengwei's laboratory, they knew that Chen Zhengwei's laboratory produced penicillin.

This made Charles Chandler famous all over the world.

"I didn't!" said another person.

"Very good. I like smart people. You guys go wait outside for a moment." Chen Zhengwei nodded.

After the two left, he asked the last two people.

They are all experts in his steel plant.

"Tell me about this steelmaking technology." Chen Zhengwei said.

"It's the Siemens-Martin open-hearth steelmaking process. The plan is very mature..." The two explained the new technology to Chen Zhengwei.

"That means this technology has significantly improved the output, quality and volume, and can try to produce more types of alloys, right?" Chen Zhengwei understood what the two said. "Yes, boss!" The two said immediately.

“How long will it take to upgrade the steel plant’s equipment?”

"Some need to be modified, and some need to be remanufactured... It will take at least three months, but we can do some of the modification first and order new equipment at the same time, which can reduce the impact on production."

"Let's do it! Renovate and upgrade all the steel mills one after another." Chen Zhengwei said immediately.

Although this would cost a lot of money, he didn't care about the money at all.

"A transformation team will be set up later, and you will be a member of the team, and then you will make a transformation and upgrade plan." Chen Zhengwei said.

"Also, how much are you getting paid now?"

"$44 a week..."

"43 dollars a week..." The second person glanced at the person next to him with a strange look on his face.

Why do you get $1 more per week than me?

My skills are obviously better, this doesn’t make sense!

That's some shitty management!
"From now on, your weekly salary will be increased to $60! After you do this, it will be increased to $80 and your position will be promoted to a higher level." Chen Zhengwei said directly.

"Thank you, boss!" Both of them smiled immediately.

Nothing is more impressive than a promotion and a raise in salary.

320 dollars a month, this is truly a high-income class.

Even among technical supervisors in steel mills, they are considered high-paid.

A technical supervisor at a medium-sized steel plant generally earns less than $2000 a year.

Chen Zhengwei then made a phone call and explained the two matters.

After everyone left, Chen Zhengwei looked at the abstract paintings in front of him and put them in the drawer.

Let's wait until they make a prototype first.

Then you can develop the car.

……

Guangzhou.

"Sir, those people finally confessed. There is an important figure among those thugs, named Chen Fenglu! This person has the list and account book in his hand. As long as we get the list and account book, we can find the families of those thugs." A man knelt on one knee and said.

As Chen Zhengwei often said, it is easy for a person to die, but few can withstand torture.

What’s more, six or seven people were arrested, and these people were just civilians before.

It’s not easy to persist until now.

"Salary? I wonder whose salary they are getting?" Guarjia Ronglu sneered while chewing some fruit.

"Now that everyone knows about him, why don't you go and catch him?"

"Sir, the person is in Hong Kong, on British territory. It is not easy for us to arrest him, and the British will not agree." said the man.

"What? If it's hard to catch you, then you won't catch me? Then what do we need you for?" Guaerjia Ronglu stared at the other party.

"Your Excellency, we cannot arrest people in a big way. There are many laborers over there. We can just send people over there and promise them a small profit so that they can secretly arrest the people and send them out. Then we don't have to worry about the British."

"Let's do it this way!" Guaerjia Ronglu nodded.

While waiting for his men to leave, Guaerjia Ronglu's mind turned.

As long as the homes of those thugs were raided, they would cause chaos on their own without the need for the court to intervene.

And I heard that the thugs had a lot of technology and guns and cannons, and the Americans couldn't do anything to them. Getting these was another achievement.

……

"Brother Wei, do you want to send out red envelopes in Los Angeles this year?" Chen Zhenghu found Chen Zhengwei.

"Send!" Chen Zhengwei said without thinking.

There are only more than 200,000 Chinese people, so the red envelopes given out would only be more than 200,000.

Not to mention 200,000, even 2 million is something he can afford.

Giving out red envelopes every year is a reminder to Chinese Americans that if they follow Chen Zhengwei, they will have meat to eat.

Now that Chen Zhengwei has become rich, everyone will have a good life.

"Okay!" Chen Zhenghu also felt that more than 200,000 was not a lot.

Just arrange a lot of people to distribute it.

Then he talked about some arrangements for the Chinese New Year, including lion dancing and other activities.

At that time, Chen Zhengwei will have to add the finishing touches to the lion.

A few days later, a large number of coins were sent to Los Angeles, and Los Angeles then announced a three-day holiday for the New Year, and red envelopes would be given on the first day of the New Year.

Suddenly, all the workers who had just arrived in the United States from Peru and Cuba were filled with joy.

"Mr. Chen is really rich!" a young man said with a smile.

"What do you mean by being rich? He is the lifeblood of thousands of families. Even if there is no red envelope, who among us would not remember Mr. Chen's kindness? If it weren't for Mr. Chen, we would still be slaves on the plantation now!" a man next to him said immediately.

They have been here for a few months and have gotten used to the life here.

Although the work was a little tiring, it was much easier than working on a plantation, and there was meat to eat every day and the pay was high.

I pay a certain amount every month and still have more than ten dollars left.

Many people counted on their fingers, thinking that in just ten months, they would be able to pay off the debt and get $27 per month.

There is hope for this day too.
