Go back in time and be a chaebol

Chapter 320 New Opportunities (Fourth update, please subscribe)

"I miss my son, please bring him to take me home!"

Sometimes, things go more smoothly than expected.

Margaret sent this telegram on the third day after she returned home.

"Actually, I have prepared a movie!"

After putting down the telegram in his hand, Li Yian said to himself.

The public opinion war in newspapers was just the first step. In order to win as much support as possible from the outside world, he even wrote a movie script himself, which mainly used the "Roman Diary" to modify their story.

The fairy tale between the princess and the king who becomes Cinderella will always touch people's hearts!

Even as for the starring role, Li Yian had already thought about it, it was Hepburn!

Pity.

With a long sigh, Li Yian could only put away the script for the time being. Now, it was time to go to England to bring his wife home.

Of course, he did not just go to pick up his wife, but more importantly, the confirmation of this marriage added a guarantee to the future of Borneo, not only investment in Australia, but also many other things.

For example, British technology. In this era, many British technologies are leading the world - such as the engine known as the "Industrial Crown". There may be some obstacles for a foreign company to introduce those technologies, but what about a Canadian company?

Not only do you have to break into your circle of friends, but you also have to break into your inner circle!

When Li Yi'an was preparing to go to London, the British Prime Minister also publicly expressed his support for Princess Margaret's marriage.

"The cabinet does not object to the marriage between Princess Margaret and King Li Nian of the Kingdom of Sarawak. We believe that divorce is against the Christian faith..."

In fact, the Prime Minister's support is just the icing on the cake. After all, several major British newspapers have already conducted public opinion surveys, and the results show that regardless of the opinions of the church or the government, the vast majority of the people support or respect Margaret's choice.

Of course, the Prime Minister's support is not meaningless - before making a public statement, he sent a top-secret telegram to the leaders of some Commonwealth countries, asking them to unanimously agree on the princess's marriage. Under the law on royal marriage that began in 1772, Margaret no longer has the right to inherit the throne, but she can still retain the title of princess and hold public office, and she can continue to enjoy royal subsidies after marriage.

In this way, under Li Yian's careful planning, all roads were finally paved.

……

The road to the UK is not long, but it does require a layover. After all, the entire flight takes dozens of hours. On the second day after leaving Borneo, the plane arrived in Tunisia. According to the plan, Li Yian will stay here for one night. , after all, the next stop is London.

After arriving in Tunisia, Li Yian was not idle. After handing the child over to the nanny, he got busy. After all, there were still many things to deal with. Moreover, Tunisia was also a transit point between Borneo and Europe. In the Tunisian base , and also stores more than 600,000 tons of machinery and equipment.

Although the mountains of equipment were just exposed in the wilderness, thanks to Tunisia's dry and drier weather, these equipment did not rust. Behind these machines, Li Yian listened to Zhao Xiyong's report while walking. .

"Now, with the restoration of order in Germany, we can no longer demolish factories as we did in the past, and out of consideration for restoring the German economy, the United States has also begun to ban us from demolition in Germany. Therefore, my suggestion is to demolish factories as soon as possible. Our people were transferred to Japan, and when demolition was possible, everything that could be moved was evacuated as much as possible."

When it comes to the job in Germany, Zhao Xiyong's tone is filled with regret. After all, the good days are gone forever.

"At the beginning, we were still very unfamiliar with moving. It was like a beggar entering a restaurant. He wanted to eat a little of everything, regardless of good or bad. Now to sum up, the key is core equipment, which is the most expensive. Just move it and you'll save a lot of money..."

This is experience!

This experience was gained from a year and a half of large-scale demolition in Germany. Some experiences cannot be learned without actual practice.

"So, now we must immediately devote all our efforts to Japan."

"It's time to change the target," Li Yian added after nodding in agreement.

"The situation in Japan is different from that in Germany. In Germany we are guests, and in Japan we are the masters. It is okay to make more noise in Japan, but it is different in Germany. If you can transport all these machines, it is already a big deal." It’s not easy anymore.”

Apart from anything else, just the equipment in front of us is an extremely valuable asset to Nanyang. In the past year and a half, how many machines and equipment have the search team dismantled from Germany?

Numbers are no longer important. What is important is that with those machines and equipment, Nanyang has laid a certain industrial foundation. This is the most important thing.

"Looking back now, it always feels like a pity. There was so much equipment and factories. We almost had the chance to dismantle them, but it was just a little bit like the original car manufacturing plant in Wolfsburg. Originally we had the opportunity to dismantle some machines, but as soon as the demolition started, the British intervened. In the end, we only took away more than 200 machines and equipment. Now under the supervision of the British, the Wolfsburg factory has returned to normal. The production capacity is 1000 cars per month. Because they are still under the supervision of the Allied forces, the workers do not have much spare production materials. Although the Volkswagen cars they produce are pre-war designs, their performance is very good. , and it is very popular in the market, and it is said that it has even been sold to the UK.”

"Volkswagen car? German..."

In Li Yian's mind, a famous car appeared almost subconsciously-Volkswagen.

Beetle!

It must be a Beetle!

Li Yian asked, thinking of the Beetle's astonishing output in history and even creating a leading automobile industry.

"They can produce 1000 units a month now, right?"

"Yes, this is because the automobile manufacturing plant is under the supervision of the Allied Forces, and the supply of raw materials is insufficient. If there are enough raw materials, I estimate that the output can be increased at least several times. Alas, as long as I think about not being able to dismantle the entire factory, I feel a little pity.”

Compared with Zhao Xiyong's pity, Li Yian is more concerned about the "Beetle". To be precise, it should be the Volkswagen Company that produces the "Beetle".

Volkswagen is now still under the control of the Allied forces and should be under the control of the British military. In other words, it is an ownerless property.

Of course, it is not ownerless.

The current Volkswagen Company is an "undetermined property" under the supervision of the British military. After all, according to the principle of war compensation, that factory is the same as most industrial facilities occupied by the Allies. The official treatment method is basically to treat it as It was dismantled and sold off to compensate the Allies for their war losses.

It's just that the UK doesn't need it - now the UK's domestic industrial production capacity also has a problem of excess. After all, after experiencing continuous expansion during the war, and the UK's use of imperial units, they certainly have no interest in German machinery using metric units. What interest.

This is why industrial production in the British-occupied areas was the first to resume - because the British established the basic principle that large-scale demolition from Germany was not needed. Therefore, most of the factories in the British theater resumed production under the supervision of the British army, except of course the military industry.

"All right!"

After running through all the information, Li Yian raised his eyebrows and chuckled.

"Opportunity is here!"

Isn't this an opportunity? Companies under British supervision have a lot of room for maneuver. As long as they operate a little bit, there will definitely be additional gains.

"Chance?"

Zhao Xiyong said in surprise.

"Sir, what chance?"

Li Yi'an said proudly.

"Of course it's a bargain hunting opportunity!"
