In Guangzhou, Wu Changqing first visited Dingsheng Shipyard, a shipyard that mainly manufactures passenger ships and cargo ships for civilian use.
The Deep Water Bay Shipyard in Hong Kong mainly builds warships.
At the same time, it is also the resident of the Third Fleet of the Dahua Navy.
At Dingsheng Shipyard, Wu Changqing participated in the launching ceremony of the Polang freighter.
The Polang was built more than a month ago, and it was deliberately waited until Wu Changqing came over before launching. This cargo ship is Dahua, and even the largest ship in the world.
Its displacement reached an astonishing 20,000 tons.
Civil ships have relatively low technical requirements. Currently, several shipyards in Dahua have mastered this technology, and there are currently three ships under construction.
The technical content of warships is much higher. Currently, Dahua can only build warships with a displacement of less than 10,000 tons.
It's not that you can't build a bigger one, but that it can't keep up with the performance.
If it is not fast, it is easy to be damaged, and the failure rate is high. That is the real trouble.
Warships have to adapt to all kinds of harsh environments and have to install various high-tech weapons. Freighters are incomparable.
The Polang freighter is one hundred and five meters long and about seventeen meters wide.
This behemoth directly stunned everyone.
Not only were the foreign ambassadors dumbfounded, but even some Dahua officials who had never seen the ship were also stunned.
This, this, how majestic this is.
Compared with the previous carriage, this thing is indeed countless times more spectacular.
"With such a big iron bump, can it walk?"
Some people even whispered.
Although they all know the principle of the steam engine, how can that seemingly simple principle push such a big thing.
The chief designer of the Breaking Wave was introducing the performance parameters of the ship to Wu Changqing. Wu Changqing nodded with satisfaction.
Although this Polang is only large in size, it is very scumbag in other performance aspects.
But that’s okay. It’s already pretty good to be able to build this thing with a bunch of drawings, and Wu Changqing can’t ask for more.
"If Dahua is willing, we in Spain are willing to exchange half of Brazil for such a ship."
The Spanish ambassador said that although this is a joke, it also expressed his evaluation of the ship, which is worth millions of square kilometers of land.
"Even if Dahua is willing to sell, our country should not be able to afford it."
The Persian ambassador shook his head with a wry smile. At this moment, he felt inferior.
"Even if Dahua gave it to our country for free, our country couldn't find anyone to start it, so I could only watch it."
Ottoman's ambassador Deldogan was even more straightforward and mocked his country directly.
After all, other countries are carrying out reforms and learning from Dahua. It happened that their Ottoman Empire was still immersed in the glory of the empire and didn't want to make progress.
After Deldogan came to Dahua and opened his eyes, he was completely disappointed in the Ottoman Empire.
"The most important weapon of the country, with this thing, there is no barrier in the world."
A Chinese minister said.
This 20,000-ton freighter will have an extremely terrifying transportation capacity.
The transportation cost of goods will be further reduced.
Countless people worshipped this big ship with emotion and felt the insignificance of human beings.
Subsequently, the Breaking Wave was launched in the crowd of thousands of people.
When it fell into the water, the splashing waves were several meters high, and the momentum was shaking.
For many people, seeing such a scene once in a lifetime is enough to brag for a lifetime.
Except for the Breaking Wave, Dingsheng Shipyard has built more than 100 ships of various specifications.
Its gross tonnage is almost equal to the sum of the entire Western Europe.
After visiting the Dingsheng Shipyard, they went to visit the Industrial Street without stopping.
In other cities, industries are concentrated in one place, and then they are called industrial parks.
This is not the case in Guangzhou. There are no particularly concentrated industrial parks. Instead, there are many industrial streets, that is, a whole set of streets are full of manufacturing plants.
Basically, they are all light industries, and they are all small-scale, family-style small factories.
In some factories, with only one or two machines, a single man can do all the work of the boss, workers, and salesmen.
In most factories, there are more than a dozen people.
However, these small workshops should not be underestimated, mainly because there are so many.
There is the most comprehensive manufacturing industry here. Basically, you can buy all the parts you want here.
Moreover, regardless of the order is one thousand for one piece, these small workshops will take orders, not at all.
Wu Changqing went shopping and picked two factories and went in to take a look.
This kind of small workshop type factory seems to be not as efficient as the big one, but in fact, the people in this kind of small workshop are very motivated to produce.
Because this is their own industry, and workers in large factories are definitely less motivated by comparison.
Wu Changqing kindly inquired about the lives of these factory owners, inquired about their career difficulties, and urged local officials to effectively help these entrepreneurs solve their problems.
This touching scene was naturally captured by the reporter.
In addition to visiting these factories, Wu Changqing also visited the commercial street.
Guangzhou's retail industry and small-scale wholesale industry are very developed. Here, you can buy almost all the goods you want, a bit like Yiwu in later generations.
It's hard to say that the quality is not good, but the price is really low.
A large number of self-employed people come here to buy goods, then load them on small broken ships and transport them to Annan, the Philippines and other places.
When it is sold out in Nanyang, I will transport some cane sugar and spices back from Nanyang.
Their ships are small, and their transportation costs can’t be compared to large freighters.
But they have a huge advantage, that is, tax evasion.
Dahua’s navy is limited in number and can't manage so many.
Moreover, if you really catch these people, you can't help them. People who will take such a big risk to do this kind of thing are basically the poor remaining lives.
And these people also contributed to an alternative prosperity.
Finally, Wu Changqing also visited the University Town of Guangzhou.
Apart from Nanjing, this is the place with the most dense universities and the place with the most international students.
There are seven universities in the university town, and even two technical colleges, which specialize in teaching various manufacturing technologies.
Wu Changqing spoke highly of these schools, and he emphasized the importance of talents.
"What is the most precious thing in today's world? Talent. As long as there are talents, everything else will be there."
Wu Changqing said.
What he said is not an official rhetoric, but the truth.
After all, he needs technology, he can use it at any time, anyway, there is no shortage of resources or technological points.
Now there is a shortage of those who can learn to master and use technology. As long as there are enough talents, Dahua's development can continue to soar.
