The journey starts from the Titanic

"Yes. I remembered." He Xiangu was a little embarrassed.

"Just know! Telefunken is a joint venture between our rivals General Electric and Siemens. But there is something wrong with that company now."

Situ Nan added.

He Xiangu's words reminded Situ Nan that his eyes should not be limited to the United States. Germany also has talents. By introducing a group of electrical engineers from Germany and importing electronic tube production lines, Nanhua may also be able to establish an electronics factory faster.

Coupled with the technology introduced from the United States, complementing each other, and cultivating talents for more than ten years, maybe it can...

The foundation of the electronics industry must be laid. After the Second World War, Japan has risen again, and the electronics industry is one of the keys.

"Okay! Technical research needs to be carried out, and the factory has to be invested in construction. The cost of simultaneous implementation should be more, but the money should also be paid. You inform Meihua Company that I am willing to invest 300,000 US dollars in an electronic factory, and they have to think more. Pay more for the shares."

Situ Nan said seriously and gladly accepted He Xiangu's suggestion, and Nanhua's electronics industry began from then on.

"Okay. I'll do it right away." He Xiangu nodded and walked out briskly.Recently, she has made a lot of suggestions and won praise from Situ Nan. This way, she has a sense of accomplishment, and she has more motivation in her career.

For the electronics industry, Situ Nan attaches great importance to it.A small electronic tube is related to whether Cummins Electric can stand up in the fierce competition in the United States.

Especially when facing a strong competitor—American Radio Corporation, Situ Nan had to put more effort on Cummins Electric Corporation in the field of electronics industry.

With the rapid development of Cummins Electric Company, the original management no longer meets the requirements of Situ Nan, so he is ready to change his blood and find a more potential helm.

After many inspections, Situ Nan finally took a fancy to Gerald, Vice President of General Electric Company?Swope, a forward-looking manager in the field of electrical manufacturing.

At the Oriental Mandarin Hotel, Situ Nan saw Gerrard again?Swope, of course this contact is secret.

"Mr. Swope, we meet again. Since the last time we parted, I have been looking forward to seeing you." Situ Nan was very enthusiastic when we met.

"Yes. It's also my honor." Gerrard?Swope sat down. There were only two of them in the room. He was hesitant about whether to contact Situ Nan before, but finally came.

Gerald?Swope has already become the vice president of General Electric, under one person and over ten thousand people. Perhaps one day, he can lead the largest electrical empire in the United States.

What about Cummins Electric Company Gerrard?Swope also knows better, he admires and is curious about this electrical company that was almost born out of nowhere.

A few years ago, Nikolai?Tesla, a scientific genius, went to New York. After he went to the west, Cummins Electric began to rise and made breakthroughs in the electrical field. Compared with General Electric, the old giants like Westinghouse Electric are not inferior to the patents they apply for each year.

In terms of recruiting talents, Cummins Electric took great pains to attract electrical talents from all over the world with a high proportion of patents. The number of unsuccessful engineers from General Electric to Los Angeles is quite large.

With such a rapid development speed, a giant like General Electric could not find a way to restrict it for a while.Whenever you think of this, Gerald?Swope was under pressure.

Because Cummins Electric has launched a strong challenge to General Electric in the field of electrical manufacturing, and he is the person in charge of General Electric.

As soon as they sat down, both of them had things in their minds and their own cares. The scene seemed a bit deserted, but the calculations in their minds became more intense.

Gerald?When Swope was thinking about Cummins Electric's situation, Situ Nan was observing Gerald?Swope was thinking about how to draw the opponent closer to his camp.

Like Gerald?It is not easy to win over a person with high authority like Swope, so he must offer conditions that the other party cannot refuse!Situ Nan thought to himself.

"The previous global wireless broadcast experiment was very successful. Congratulations. Cummins Electric's performance is admired." Gerrard?Swope spoke first.Although he was a dozen years older than Situ Nan, he felt that it was more appropriate for him to speak first to the leader of the previous large consortium.

"Yes. Very successful. Isn't this also a success of General Electric? A lot of our radio equipment comes from American Radio Corporation." Situ Nan smiled, somewhat proud, but not annoying.

Gerald?Swope nodded, and the core components of the high-power transmitter of Cummins Broadcasting Company's transmitting station came from the high-power electronic tubes produced by General Electric.

Only they in the world can produce the high-strength and high-power electronic tube 3SN7, which can increase the power of the transmitter from 1500 watts to 5000 watts.

That is military technology, quality assurance, the communication equipment on the US warships buys this product in large quantities.Without this kind of thing, Cummins Electric would not be able to achieve wireless broadcast communications from San Francisco to New Tangshan.Situ Nan has always coveted this technique, and ordered Nikolai?The Tesla laboratory develops a more powerful tube than the 3SN7 tube produced by General Electric.

Indeed, in addition to Cummins Electric and General Electric, the participation of Westinghouse’s radio stations is also necessary to achieve nationwide wireless broadcasting. Of course, there are thousands of electronics manufacturers and tens of thousands of radio engineers and hobbies behind these three giants. By.

"Actually, I am very dissatisfied with the American radio company. They are trying to monopolize the American radio market. This is a very dangerous behavior. It does not comply with American laws.

Situ Nan said angrily.

If Cummins Electric does not have Nicholas?Tesla, the great god, is behind it and has made breakthroughs in key technologies, otherwise Cummins Electric will not be able to become the leader in the radio market as it is now.

It is necessary to explain the American Radio Corporation, which was established in 1919. Its predecessor was the Telegraph Bureau and other communication equipment institutions that the U.S. Navy took over during World War I. The famous Manico Telegraph Company was also "confiscated" by the military.

After the war, the Manico Telegraph Company attempted to become independent, but the abominable U.S. Navy did not trust Manico. Because he was a foreigner, he colluded with General Electric and asked General Electric to acquire Manico Telegraph Company.

As a result, General Electric has mastered a large number of advanced radio patents and technologies. After the war, General Electric and Westinghouse Electric jointly established the American Radio Corporation, or RCA, in order to monopolize the US radio market.

Cummins Electric tried to join in, and Situ Nan also made a lot of efforts, but unfortunately it didn't work, so Cummins Electric had to do it himself.

Situ Nan, who was suffocated, and Nicholas who also wanted Easterners to see their talents?Tesla hit it off, one talented and the other rich. After generous investment and a lot of effort, he finally realized the world's first commercial radio station before Westinghouse Electric Company, and let out a sigh of relief.

Cummins Electric Company also performed outstandingly in these global wireless broadcasts. With irrefutable success, it withstood the pressure of American Radio Corporation, broke the monopoly of American Radio Corporation in the field of radio manufacturing and wireless communication, and became another independent camp. In fact, the monopolistic organization that General Electric and Westinghouse had painstakingly managed to collapse.

"Cummins Electric's radio has robbed most of our market, and we are also very distressed." Gerrard?Swope smiled bitterly.Does General Electric have a lot of grievances against Cummins Electric?

At the beginning, they and Westinghouse Electric agreed to jointly monopolize the US radio market, so they didn't think much of Cummins Electric and refused Cummins Electric's participation.Now a group of people are rushing for food with their two families, and they are not happy.

However, they had no choice but to compete and cooperate.The most enviable is Nikolai?Tesla, a scientific genius, also has close ties with the three major electrical giants in the United States.

Chapter 194 Cummins Electric's Leader

"Edison let go of Nikola Tesla, so Westinghouse Electric. Westinghouse Electric cleared Nikola Tesla, and today there is Cummins Electric. The pattern of the electrical field in the United States is because of an engineer. The change is really amazing."

Gerald Swope sighed, giving Situ Nan a complicated look.

He suddenly said such a sentence, which made Situ Nan have a good impression of him, smiled and nodded, deeply agreeing.

Cummins Electric is now able to compete with Westinghouse Electric in the field of power transmission and power generation. The bottom card is Nikola Tesla. In the field of electrical appliance manufacturing, it is competing with General Electric. The bottom card is Nikola Tesla.

Although compared with the previous two giants, the overall strength is slightly inferior, but it is not irreparable.

The two fell into a brief silence. When mentioning the Frankenstein, Gerald Swope felt a little regretful, while Situ Nan felt a little more emotional.

From Gerard Swope’s words, Situ Nan can see that the other party’s interest in Nikola Tesla and Cummins Electric’s technical confidence is a good thing.

After talking a lot of nonsense, and resonating on this topic in the electrical industry, Situ Nan no longer "inks", he looked serious, stared at Gerald Swope, and said sincerely: "Since Mr. recognizes Cummins Electric Company The achievements have also seen its potential, why not lead it to more brilliant achievements? I sincerely invite you to join Cummins Electric."

"It's finally here," Gerald Swope thought to himself. Before he came, he had clearly received the message of Situ Nan's invitation. Since he came to the meeting, he was naturally interested, or interested in Situ Nan.

"Why me? I'm good at GM." Gerald Swope smiled faintly, picked up the coffee, and his face was noncommittal.

"Mr. Swope’s talent is not to be mentioned. It is obvious to all. I have spent a lot of time to understand you. I think you are the best helm of Cummins Electric. Now Cummins Electric has a firm foothold in the West. The center of gravity will be in the eastern region, and you are very familiar with the eastern electrical market. We want to kill General Electric and Westinghouse Electric. It won’t work without someone like you."

Situ Nan smiled and analyzed and said, not at all concealing that Cummins Electric is targeting General Electric.

"What else?" Gerald Swope put down his coffee and looked at Situ Nan with interest, admiring the ambitious look of Situ Nan who was younger than himself.But this is not enough!

"Give you full authority, let you lead Cummins Electric Company, you can plan his development prospects, I will not interfere. This is currently GE cannot give you!"

Situ Nan said happily that he does not doubt about employing people. This is his principle, so he has always been willing to delegate power.

A gleam of light flashed in Gerald Swope's eyes, and his calm was restored immediately.Yes, he is still one step away from taking full control of General Electric, but no one can say whether it will take one or two years or ten or eight years to cross the final step.Now he cannot be the master of General Electric, and his proposition cannot be fully realized.
