Chapter 412 Germans who are willing to be pitted(2/2)
Among these three technologies, the large-caliber artillery manufacturing technology and advanced armor manufacturing technology were advanced technologies that were long ago been remembered by the German Empire, but the Chinese Empire has been unwilling to transfer technology. Although the German Empire imported hundreds of large-caliber artillery and tens of thousands of tons of armor from the Chinese Empire and developed some experience through reverse engineering, there is still a huge gap compared with the Chinese Empire.
So far, the quality of the 305mm 50-caliber artillery barrel produced by the German Empire has been inequality, with a lifespan of less than 100 rounds. Compared with similar artillery imported from the Chinese Empire, the lifespan is more than twice as short as the same type of artillery imported from the Chinese Empire.
Similarly, the German Krupp armor was already very advanced, but compared with the special steels of the Chinese Empire, there are huge differences in strength, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, etc.
But this time, the German Empire was re-reported, and did not expect to obtain the main gun barrel manufacturing technology and special steel technology, but used this as a springboard to obtain the steam turbine technology of the Chinese Empire.
Compared with gun barrel and armor manufacturing technology, steam turbine technology is more important to the German Imperial Navy and is determined to win.
However, what Taal didn't know was that all the telegrams he sent to Berlin were monitored. The cryptographic experts of SHIELD of the Chinese Empire quickly deciphered the German telegram password, thus learning the attitudes of the German Emperor, the German government, and the military.
Li Weiguo took a look at the declassified information and was immediately happy.
"Since the German Emperor wants to obtain steam turbine technology at all costs, then you should not be ruthless. Do what you should do! Don't save money for the Germans!"
"I will obey the order!"
Zhang Peilun, Wang Kaitai, Wu Yong, Hua Hengfang, Lin Jiyun and other relevant personnel accepted the order in unison, and were ready to slaughter the Germans.
First of all, we have to let the German representatives such as Taal beside him, grind their sharpness and hit their fragile hearts so that we can negotiate better and ask for chips.
For a month in a row, Tal failed to get a reply from the relevant departments of the Chinese Empire.
"Please wait, we are coordinating relevant departments!"
"Sorry, the relevant departments are under research!"
One relevant department, another relevant department, made Tarmon turn his head, and he was crying without tears!
Taal could not directly open the door to negotiations with the Chinese Empire, so he had to use the German business groups to China, hoping to open the door to negotiations through huge trade and investment.
This time, Tar brought more than 100 German industrial and commercial giants and signed more than 2,000 contracts with giants in various industries of the Chinese Empire. The trade volume with China was as high as 2.82 billion German marks, equivalent to 140 million yuan, of which the direct investment in China was as high as 38 million yuan. This is definitely the largest commercial trade cooperation in the world so far, covering thousands of enterprises in the Chinese Empire and directly providing 40,000 jobs to the Chinese Empire.
For the sake of money, the Chinese Empire finally began to negotiate with the German representatives led by Tarr.
"It is impossible to want steam turbine technology, at least we have no intention of transferring it at this stage!"
The Chinese Empire negotiators Hua Hengfang, Zhang Peilun and Lin Jiyun formed a three-person working group to be responsible for negotiations with the German side.
"However, for the sake of the Sino-German alliance, we are willing to provide your country with a complete set of steam turbine equipment, which your country's navy can use on its own warships."
Tarr was slightly disappointed. Although he did not directly obtain steam turbine technology, at least the Chinese Empire opened up the restrictions on steam turbine exports to Germany, and the German Navy could immediately obtain steam turbine equipment. This was also good, at least it would not delay the German Navy's growth pace.
"That's great, thank you for exporting steam turbine equipment to us! I wonder how much is the price?"
"One.5 million yuan per set!"
Despite his mental preparation, Taal's face twitched when he heard a set of steam turbines of RMB 1.5 million.
