The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

Spn Zhang Jian is now full of red and full of energy. Since he cooperated with Huadong Group to establish a textile company in the form of a trust, his career has gone a step further.

Although his shares are relatively small, he is the second largest shareholder besides Huadong Group. Moreover, after possessing more advanced textile technology, the cotton cloth of the textile company not only gradually defeated foreign cloth in the country, but also began to export.

In particular, Jiangyu developed the chemical industry, which made the clothes of the Chinese people gradually wear dyed clothes, which not only look better, but also change their mental outlook, and are more durable.

At the same time, the scale of the textile company is not restricted by domestic cotton production. While purchasing cotton at home, it also imports cotton from abroad, and then weaves it into cloth.

After being sent to the dyeing house for coloring, it is sent to the clothing company of Huadong Group. [

Clothing companies directly produce finished garments for export. There are many wealthy people in the West, and the reputation of Chinese clothing is gradually starting.

Because the styles of Chinese clothing are the latest, and the quality is also very good, and the new cloth developed by the textile company is used.

From low-end to high-end, there are all kinds of clothing. Although cotton cloth has a cost advantage and can be exported, it is difficult to squeeze into the saturated overseas market before World War I. At the same time, the profit is not very high, while the finished clothes are very expensive. Easier to squeeze in.Especially countries such as Britain, France and Germany, and the United States will have lower profits due to tariff barriers. Low-end clothing basically has no profit, but even if there is no profit, it is very cost-effective to export to the United States, at least it can support workers.

It is equivalent to making the cake bigger, and Zhang Jian's personal assets have also continued to rise.

This time Jiang Yu came to Shanghai, one is to inspect the election planning, and the other is for the upcoming China Fashion Show in Shanghai.

Zhang Jian is a constitutionalist, and he is very enthusiastic about this election, and his constitutionalism does not conflict with Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu didn't care whether it was a constitution or a president.

The emperor after the establishment of the constitution actually had no privileges, so Yuan Shikai was wronged in history, and Yuan Datou really took a lot of scapegoat.

"Overall, the situation is very good. We have almost manipulated the elections in most areas." Zhang Jian briefly explained the situation to Jiang Yu, and welcomed Jiang Yu into the chamber of commerce headquarters.

Huadong Building is ten stories high and occupies a relatively large area.Although it is also a modern building, it adopts a Chinese architectural style, which is completely different from the western architectural style in Shanghai.

The core departments of the consortium established by Jiang Yu are gathered here, and every day's decision-making affects huge income and expenditure.

Entering the second floor where the radio station is located, I saw that it was busy inside, the radio station was beeping non-stop, business information and election information from all over the country were constantly gathering, and the think tanks of the East China Group were constantly analyzing These intelligences are then formulated and implemented according to the general principles.

"Among the 130 electoral districts across the country, we have intervened in nearly 120 three districts. In provinces such as Shandong, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Outer Mongolia, and Chahar, where we have relatively strong control, we have adopted administrative departments. Directly and covertly manipulated, combined with speeches and propaganda to control, we directly controlled the primary elections in these provinces, that is to say, in addition to the representatives we were going to send to the central government, we even took over the provincial representatives. In the future, we can directly pass these provinces Members of Parliament came to formulate local provincial bills, paving the way for the expansion of the chamber of commerce." Zhang Jian reported in detail.

"Well! That's right, what about other provinces?" Jiang Yu continued to ask.

"In other provinces, we focus on bribing those party administrators to achieve vote manipulation and directly buy votes with money. In those provinces, we generally do not sweep the primary elections, and only focus on reelections. Each district strives to elect one of us. Members of Congress. A ticket for the primary election only costs 800 cents to 2000 cents. Generally, the rich Jiangsu area costs 22 cents, while the poorer provinces only need 30 cents. As for the ticket price for the re-election, it is not clear, but it should not It will be more than [-] yuan per piece. In this general election, the general manager contributed [-] million yuan, and the members of the East China Chamber of Commerce raised [-] million yuan, which means that we can spend an average of [-] yuan in each constituency. We don’t need to spend much money in areas such as the Yangtze River Basin, and those constituencies that need money can receive an average of more than [-] yuan in funds, which can be said to be very sufficient.”

30 yuan, to deal with a constituency, who is the opponent?

Take 300 yuan a ballot for re-election as an example, you can buy 1000 votes, and if you concentrate these votes on a few people, it is not a problem at all to be elected to the House of Representatives.

And after Jiang Yu checked the information on the Internet, he found that if there are re-elections, generally as long as there are hundreds of votes, he can usually become a member of the House of Representatives.

Zhang Jian continued to say to Jiang Yu: "And we have met scholars and gentry who are not willing to participate in politics. Because of your high reputation, Marshal, most of the scholars and gentry are willing to cooperate with the East China Chamber of Commerce. In addition, we We also recruited a lot of members from the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. The Republican Party’s organizational skills are relatively low. Although there are many people, we are dismantling each other internally. We took advantage of the vacancy. The leader of the Democratic Party, Tang Hualong, also has the intention to cooperate with us and is currently negotiating with him in detail. , if we can win him over, then there is basically no suspense for us to control the members of Congress.” [

"Well! That's right, that's right, Mr. Zhang will take care of the election." Jiang Yu is very happy. Controlling the House of Representatives is equivalent to controlling the legislative power. Try to support those who can actively participate in politics and are more upright. In the second term, we will screen out those who occupy the cesspit and elect new members to supplement it.”

"En! This method is imperative. If the Congress is full of people who eat vegetarian food, they may be discussed by the people of the country." Zhang Jian agreed very much.

However, obedience is always the premise. As long as you are obedient, the East China Chamber of Commerce will secretly give subsidies ranging from 1000 to 5000 yuan every year.

It sounds like a subsidy, but it sounds like a bribe.

It is almost a well-known fact in the United States that consortiums control Congress.

No matter what party you are in the United States, without the support of financial groups, you can't do much.The fight between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party is actually a political performance.

The East China Chamber of Commerce has just intervened at this time, and the control of the party is not so thorough, but this is only a matter of time.

After Jiang Yu inspected Huadong Building that day, he went to participate in the China Fashion Exhibition held in Shanghai County.

This fashion exhibition has invited relevant media, institutions, and businessmen from major countries around the world to participate, and the scale is very large.

Moreover, this exhibition is an invitation issued in the name of Estee Lauder Company. You must know that Estee Lauder Company has become a global leader in fashion and cosmetics. Since Estee Lauder is holding a fashion exhibition in Shanghai, China, it is naturally a top priority in the fashion industry. , has been highly valued by the fashion industry, and personnel have been dispatched to participate.

In terms of venue, scale, stage, lighting, etc., this fashion exhibition has reached the top international level, which surprised foreigners from all over the world who came to participate in this fashion exhibition.

On the day of the exhibition, Jiang Yu attended on time.

When the lights came on and the models came out wearing new fashions, a flash of spotlights intersected. The fashions worn by the models were very fashionable, all of which were designed by Jiang Yu from the Internet. In front of these fashions, let People feel that the old clothes are a bit old-fashioned.

In addition to model catwalks, there are also a large number of fashions that are directly displayed for clothing merchants from all over the world to choose and purchase.

After participating in this fashion exhibition, those fashion review media all expressed high evaluations one after another, and clothing merchants from various countries also saw business opportunities and immediately began to purchase these garments produced by Chinese.

This fashion exhibition was held very successfully, which directly increased the export volume of China's finished garments, and soon made China a major garment exporter in the world.

Afterwards, the China Fashion Fair, which was held every two years, became the most important event in the fashion industry. The scale of the exhibition became bigger and bigger, and the Chinese textile and clothing industries became more and more prosperous.

Don't underestimate textiles and clothing. After all, everyone wears them. This is a huge industrial chain.

Perhaps in this era, not everyone buys ready-made clothing, and many people buy cotton cloth and then order it, or make their own clothing, especially in China.But with the continuous development of the times, it has become an inevitable trend for people to directly wear finished clothes.

The textile and garment industries are light industries. First of all, they are easy to develop. This is especially true for Jiang Yu. China's textile technology is still improving, and it is far ahead of other countries.Furthermore, the return on light industry is very fast and does not require so much capital.Good development can not only improve the quality of life of the people in the country, but also bring a lot of foreign exchange to the country every year, so Jiang Yu is very concerned about it.

The second update arrives!Call for favorites, votes! [
