Back to the Republic of China to be a editor

"Young Master Tang, according to your instructions, the machines and supplies are already in place," Zhao Kai said, "The electricity has also been installed this afternoon."

"Ask the manager to bring me the drawing package. You guys, give me a set of work clothes." Tang Hua checked the various machines in the factory and began to take off his suit. "Next, the installation and adjustment of the machines must be recorded. down, so that the assembled machine can be reproduced again.”

"The electric heater is plugged in for standby. Bring me a piece of PE (polyethylene). You need to use iron sheets to make a hopper."

"Dyeing agent, who is in charge of this part? You can handle the PE melting and dyeing process, first get green and pink."

"He is in charge of dyeing and heating, then you are in charge of the cooler and will give you the blueprint."

"Hydraulic and control systems are yours to debug."

"I'll be in charge of the syringe and mold clamping. Manager Zhao will arrange for the rest of the blocks. Each technician will be responsible for one. Go and get the drawings I've divided."

……

three days later.

Tang Hua and Manager Zhao left the factory and appeared on the streets of Wanchai.

According to the address I remembered earlier, Tang Hua walked to a low gray building and took a look. There was only a small and inconspicuous signboard at the door: Lianhe Bank ([-]nd floor)

When I went up to the second floor, the first thing I saw was a young clerk.

"Hi, may I ask if you two are..."

"We are from the Hong Kong branch of Shanghai Yongxu Company," Zhao Kai handed over the business card, "I am Zhao Kai, the manager of Yongxu, and this is Mr. Tang Hua, the chairman of Yongxu. We need to cooperate with your bank for some business , I have already made an appointment with the shopkeeper."

"Hello, Mr. Tang, and manager Zhao. I am Yang Lin, the shopkeeper of Lianhe Bank." In the reception room, Yang Lin—that is, Qin Bangli, met the two who came to visit.This manager Zhao was well dressed, and the young man named Tang Hua was wearing expensive clothes. However, both of them looked very tired, with dark circles under their eyes faintly visible. "The two of you came to Hong Kong from Shanghai, and the journey was exhausting. It was really hard work."

Tang Huahe was looking at the first-generation head of China Resources.In fact, Yang Lin is not yet 40 years old. Although she is wearing a cheap suit, it is also neatly tidied up. At first glance, she looks like a typical Hong Kong trader.After seeing him and Zhao Kai, they kept a respectful and low-key look the whole time.

"Yongxu Company, the main purpose of opening a branch in Hong Kong this time is to do some manufacturing and processing industries in Hong Kong," Zhao Kai said, "According to my plan, Yongxu Company's business will start in the future and will use Some raw materials produced in domestic provinces happen to be the specialty of Lianhe Bank. After all, you purchase from China and transfer import and export trades, so this time I came to discuss the possibility of cooperation.”

After Zhao Kai finished speaking, Tang Hua continued, "I'm looking for you because I know some friends... how should I put it? These friends are also your friends. From these friends, I know your bank and know that your business is safe. , Reliable, and, in the future, everyone will have many opportunities to be friends... No, they are allies, in short, you understand."

Yang Lin laughed hehehe, her eyebrows were bent. "Mr. Tang probably didn't know that the 'board of directors' had already notified me before you called to make an appointment yesterday. So..."

Yang Lin greeted the clerk she met just now, the clerk nodded, put the tea set on the table, and went out.

Yang Lin stared at Zhao Kai again.

"Don't avoid it. Manager Zhao will be the general manager of Hong Kong Yongxu Company in the future. I will leave after staying in Hong Kong for a few days. Manager Zhao will take full responsibility here. You and him will work together in the future." Tang Hua said.

"Okay." Yang Lin said, "The opinion of the 'Board of Directors' should actively cooperate with you. The future relationship between the two parties should be to help each other and share weal and woe. Then our company is a leading example of cooperation between the two parties." 'Chairman' opinions, we can merge to form a new company, and we and you will each hold 50% of the shares."

The "board of directors" here refers to Yan'an, and the "chairman" should be Premier Zhou if you guessed correctly.After the founding of the People's Republic of China, when China Resources Group wrote its history, Premier Zhou was listed as the founder of the group company.

Tang Hua nodded, "I am very grateful for the decision of the board of directors. People's Promotion will maintain close cooperation with your party in the future and fight for the revolution together."

Yang Lin: "However, we may have to inform you of our previous operation method in advance. You must have already known that most of the sales proceeds of Lianhe Bank, after deducting costs and necessary spare funds, will be used for our party Funds for underground organizations, procurement and transportation of medicines and other materials, and if there is an opportunity, other more sensitive materials will be transported to the liberated areas. From now on, we will work together in partnership, and we will take 50 % of the share, you also take 50%."

Tang Hua: "There is nothing wrong with this, it complies with the rules. However, the current business scale of Lianhe Bank is actually not large enough. I know that this business should be low-key and try not to attract attention, but if we can provide more funds and more If more supplies are returned, the help to the revolution will naturally be greater. When the production scale needs to be expanded in the future, I hope that everyone can discuss a feasible plan together.”

Yang Lin nodded in agreement.

"Let me tell you about the family background of Yongxu Company," Tang Hua said, "these will be merged into the new company in the future. This time I brought in 20 US dollars as working capital. If it is not enough, I will continue to transfer it from Shanghai later. Some fixed assets, two workshops in Wan Chai, one warehouse, and two warehouses in Chai Wan. The purchase of machinery and equipment plus raw material PE cost a total of about US$4, and has been assembled into the first production line. The second set of production lines has not had time to assemble. The products made by these machines and equipment are this"

Zhao Kai handed Tang Hua a long box, Tang Hua unpacked it and handed it to Yang Lin.

"Flowers?" The first thing Yang Lin saw was Tang Hua handing over a bouquet of roses, wondering if they were in the flower business?But when I held the flower in my hand and looked at it carefully, I found something wrong.

This is a bouquet of plastic flowers!

The stems and leaves are made of green plastic, and the flowers are made of pink plastic. The petals and stamens are still well made, and the stems and leaves are not simple, with green veins visible on them.Yang Lin held the flower over and over to look at it, and even straightened her arms, allowing herself to look at the flower from a distance of one or two feet.

"Yes," Yang Lin said, "it's very finely made. Plastic flowers won't wither or fade. Plastic flowers can be used in many public places, even in private houses. But this flower... "

"These plastic flowers are all produced by assembly line machines. The raw materials are polyethylene and dyeing agent. A bunch of flowers costs less than 2 cents. The machine is assembled and created by myself. It is called a vertical injection molding machine and has applied for patent registration in both the United Kingdom and the United States." .I have a full set of core technologies for plastic flowers." Tang Hua said.

……

Yang Lin stared at Tang Hua for a long time, then nodded.

"Mr. Tang, 50% of the shares, I take too much advantage of you, I am ashamed. I will report to the 'board of directors' as soon as possible, and re-draw the shareholding ratio of both parties."

"No, no," Tang Hua said, "We will each hold 50% of the new company's shares, which will never change."

Chapter 14, who wrote this article?

When Tang Hua was trial-manufacturing injection molding machines in Hong Kong's factory, on the morning of February 1946, 2, Marshall's special vehicle for negotiations, the "Bawang" special plane, flew out of Chongqing and landed at Beiping Xijiao Airport a few hours later.Marshall, Zhang Zhizhong, and Premier Zhou stepped off the special plane, and the lineup to greet them in Peiping included two camp directors Li Zongren and Xiong Shihui, members of the US, China, and the Communist Party of the Military Adjustment Department Robertson, Zheng Jiemin, and Ye Shuai.The three-member military team first arrived at the "Military Mediation Executive Department" set up at the south gate of Union Medical College Hospital.Listen to the work report of the three members of the Military Adjustment Department.However, since the three members of the military adjustment department hadn't finished arguing, the work report had almost no content.

On the morning of March 3, the three-person military team flew to Zhangjiakou again, which is the headquarters of the ZG Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. Marshall listened to the report of the Zhangjiakou executive team, and only then did he feel that there was some practical content.Marshall talked to He Long in Zhangjiakou, detailing the current situation and the situation in the region, and then flew to Jinan the next day, listening to Chen Yi and Wang Yaowu's report on the situation of their respective troops and the report of the Jinan team's American Colonel Lake.

"I'm like a baseball referee now. When playing baseball, both sides don't like referees, but there is no way to play without referees." After listening to the report, Marshall made a self-deprecating joke. Chen Yi, who had studied in France I understood, but Wang Yaowu was at a loss.

While Marshall was leading the representatives of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China to shuttle and fly in North China, Chiang Kai-shek was very upset when he watched the statistical battle report in Chongqing.

At the end of January 1946, the New Army arrived in the Northeast with the help of US Navy transport ships.Beginning on February 1, the Kuomintang army concentrated the 6 divisions of the 2nd Army, the 8th Army, and the 52th Army, relying on Jinzhou, and launched a large-scale attack on the Northeast Liberated Area along Beining Road and both sides in three routes. Beining line, occupied Shenyang.According to the plan of the national army, the South Road is the 6nd Division of the New Sixth Army, which will attack from the Goubangzi and Dahushan lines, occupy Panshan and Tai'an on the 13th, and occupy Liaozhong on the 6th; The 3nd Army, after occupying Xinmin, continued to advance to Shenyang Huanggutun with its 6th Division; the North Road was the 22th Division of the 10th Army. Fakujian Xiushuihezi area.

According to Chiang Kai-shek's vision, the attack on the national army has an absolute advantage, and there is also the most authentic unit of the New Army, which is equipped with American weapons and American training. It should have been an armed advance.

However, Dongye——at this time it was still called the Northeast Democratic Alliance Army, planned to launch a tactical counterattack in Xiushuihezi, destroying part of the enemy, so as to gradually weaken the attacking national army's strength, and then use space to completely melt the national army's offensive force .

The Battle of Xiushuihezi also has another great significance: Lin Shuai's "one point, two sides" tactic was first applied on the battlefield at the campaign level.

One point is to choose one of the enemy's weakest points, concentrate the main forces on this point, and use only a small number of troops to assist other aspects.In short, the use of troops is not even.The two sides are that the commando and clamping teams should not be used on the front.Usually, the commando team should be used on the enemy's side, and the clamping team should be used on the enemy's front.

On the night of February 2, the battle outside Xiushuihezi started.The Democratic Alliance Army seized the favorable terrain nearby, and the coordinated troops also launched attacks on the defenders of Hupi Mountain, Yangqiao, and Dajia Mountain respectively.The 13th Regiment also surrounded the 19st Battalion of the enemy's 265th Regiment.The 1st regiment also arrived at the designated location on time. On the morning of February 21th, the battle ended. The 2th Division of the National Army in Xiushuihezi was disabled. The Northeast Democratic Alliance captured 14 artillery pieces and 89 vehicles. The ammunition and shells seized were equivalent to 38 times the consumption of the battle. Earn a fortune.

After the battle, the Northeast Camp of the National Army hurriedly ordered the New Army and the 6nd Army to send a division to Xiushuihezi to counterattack. The Democratic Alliance Army took the initiative to move to the north of Faku and broke away from the battle. The 52th Regiment of the New Army occupied Shaling After that, the 6th Regiment of the 66th Brigade of the Northeast Democratic Alliance Army suddenly launched an attack on Shaling.The combat effectiveness of the 10th Regiment of the New Army was beyond the expectations of the Eastern Union. The attack by the 29th Regiment of the 6th Brigade was completely ineffective.In the end, the Eastern Allied Forces took the initiative to withdraw from the battle. The 66th Brigade was disabled in this battle, and even the Eastern Allied 10th Column was greatly reduced in combat effectiveness. The 29 regiments of the New Army had casualties + more than 32 prisoners, which was equivalent to suffering heavy losses.

After the two battles between Xiushuihezi and Shaling, the attack of the national army was stopped, and the two armies were temporarily in a confrontation, and neither side took the initiative to attack.When Chiang Kai-shek saw the entire battle report in Chongqing, he was also out of breath.Not only is the offensive terminated early, but the process of occupying the Northeast will be delayed, and due to the extremely fierce fighting, the ammunition consumed by the national army is extremely fast. These are all bullets and shells bought from the United States, and they have to be transported thousands of miles to the Northeast. !

"Mother Xipi, the 89th Division's millions of dollars worth of beautiful weapons were eaten up in one night?"

"Shu Rong is a man of great ambition and talent! The 89th Division is led by this man, it is really useless!"

"Hupi Mountain is such an important highland, but it is so neglected! Why did Beishan fall so quickly? Why didn't our army deploy heavy machine guns on the west slope of Beishan? Why did Hupi Mountain place mortars 200 meters behind? How to effectively observe and shoot at such a distance? There are a total of 6 mortars, why not arrange them in the shape of a character? The commander is incompetent, and the formation is improper, which caused me to lose a regiment and a battalion in World War I, which is an unforgivable crime!"

Chiang Kai-shek stared at the palm-sized battle map on the station newspaper, and talked to himself for 5 minutes.

Then, he felt that he would be depressed all night after reading it. In order to calm his anger, Chiang Kai-shek threw the battle report aside and picked up the Central Daily to read it.The front page of newspapers praising the government and Chiang Kai-shek seems fake, but it can also ease the mood, right?

Jiang Gong finished flipping through four newspapers, then picked up a few magazines, flipped through them, and then threw them aside.

The last magazine was called "World Military Pictorial". Chiang Kai-shek planned to throw it away after flipping through it a few times, but the title of the main article on the cover caught Jiang Gong's eyes.

"Special Attention: The Hot War Continues, and the Northeast Is Already in Crisis"
