Romanian Eagle

Chapter 566: Krupp (Part 1)

During the administrative reform in Romania, Carust and others still collected such talents and equipment in Germany.

"Immediately hand over this document to Dosk, and also require that Siemens' technology mining be quick."

After Carrust handed a document to the secretary and asked him to bring his request to his subordinates, it was obvious that he was a little dissatisfied with the work of this subordinate named Dosk.

"Okay, Director."

The director mentioned by the secretary is Carust's latest official position. Because his main job is currently in Germany to introduce technology and equipment, Romania has set up a foreign department for this purpose, the Rhodes Friendship Exchange Association. And he is the director of this association. This Rhodes Friendship Association, in addition to collecting German talents and equipment, also assumes its own responsibility for friendly exchanges.

Every year, a lot of funds are invested in exchanges between the two countries, such as inviting well-known scholars to Romania for exchanges, and organizing gatherings of personnel from the two countries and other cumbersome things. So Carust actually invaded many of the posts of diplomatic ambassadors to Germany, but the main targets were civil organizations and individuals. In addition, some things that are inconvenient for the ambassador to do are also done by him.

Of course, the Siemens company he calls it is the company founded by Werner von Siemens. As a leader in German electrification. Siemens has many good things that Romania covets, so Romania plans to introduce some technology and equipment after the war. However, the progress is not very good, because Siemens is obviously somewhat resistant to selling the technology. Because his telephone and telegraph business is currently pretty good, I heard that they still have spare capacity to invest in the research and development of radios and other electrical appliances.

There is no good way for Carust. After all, as a private company, Siemens is a bit strange in the current depressed environment in Germany. However, compared with Siemens, another company is much more difficult.

Located in a small place called Vilahugel in the south of Essen, there is a famous and luxurious manor near the river Ruhr. If later generations mentioned the surname Krupp, people would first think of cannons. No way, as Germany's main artillery supplier, the Krupp family has made great contributions to Germany's previous wars. The excellent Krupp cannon is a symbol of German force.

However, after the defeat of Germany, Krupp's life was difficult.

Britain and France imposed heavy penalties on Krupp who produced artillery, and demolition of weapons factories under Krupp as war reparations, and also confiscated the profits from the war, which greatly injured Krupp's vitality. Fortunately, the patent fee from Vickers eased Krupp's dilemma.

However, in Gustav Krupp's view, this transfer fee is a humiliation to Krupp. It turned out that before the war, the British company Vickers, which made artillery shells, leased Krupp fuze patents. After the war, the company paid royalties based on the number of German casualties.

This puts Krupp in an awkward position of making a fortune from the German war dead, how can it not be considered a humiliation. It's just that Krupp needs this money to ease the company's plight.

Today in the Krupp Manor, Gustav Krupp and his wife are receiving two visitors from Romania.

Krupp Manor is well-known in Germany, and besides the Krupp family living here, its luxury is also breathtaking. There are 227 rooms in the manor, and Krupp's strength is shown everywhere in the manor, and even the guard room that put them in is built like a small villa. Finally, the locals call the trees of the Krupp Manor the Krupp Deep Forest. One can imagine how big the manor is.

"Good day, Mr. Krupp. My name is Alex, this is my colleague Boris, and we are the staff of the Rhodes Friendship Exchange Association. During this visit, I want to seek your support for some things."

In the magnificent living room, Alex from the Rhodes Friendship Exchange Association is introducing the origins of himself and his colleagues to the Krupp couple. Because of their great merit in recruiting Dieter Rams, the two were appointed to negotiate more importantly with major German companies.

The self-introduction of the two did not cause much disturbance in the hearts of the Krupp couple. In fact, they knew exactly what Romania did in Germany.

At this time, as the helm of Krupp, Gustav Krupp said: "I don't know what Krupp can help you, but we have just closed some factories and shipyards."

From the words of Gustav Krupp, we can hear deep grievances against Britain, France and other countries. In addition to the huge losses suffered by Krupp, he has personal reasons.

As the helm of Krupp, Gustav Krupp, formerly known as Gustav von Pollen Onde Halbach, was originally a German diplomat. In 1902, Friedrich Alfred Krupp, the second-generation president of Krupp, committed suicide due to a homosexual scandal being revealed in the press, leaving only one daughter, Beta Krupp. She named it).

In this era, it is unacceptable for young women to master Krupp. As a result, the Kaiser Wilhelm II personally chose the husband of the young Beta, and Gustav von Pollen Onde Halbach Very lucky to be selected (to marry Bai Fumei, the real version of the pinnacle of life).

And after they got married, William II approved Gustav's Krupp surname, it proved. And the facts proved that his choice was very wise, Gustav Krupp made many contributions to the German Ordnance. In addition to the Big Beta, he was also responsible for the construction of the Grand Cannon (known as the Paris Cannon) that bombarded Paris with a range of 82 miles. Moreover, its owned Krupp Germania shipyard not only built battleships for the German navy, but also built many submarines.

The two directly ignored Mr. Krupp's grievances against Britain and France. Because they have been in Germany for many years.

At present, many people in Germany think that apart from being stabbed in the back (something sounds like Romania), they are also deceived by Britain, France and other countries. You must know that Britain and France have not said before that they will be punished in such eyes when they surrender. This kind of thinking is very marketable among the German people. Even the Weimar Republic, which signed the treaty, is not seen by anyone.

In order to stabilize the government's control of the overall situation, Albert reached an agreement with the military. As long as the army promises to protect the government, the government will not try to reform the army~www.readwn.com~ On the one hand, the agreement symbolizes that the army officially recognizes the new government and gives the middle class peace of mind.

Although the army has become the Republican army in name, it is still fully controlled by the former imperial army. Therefore, the army is still a conservative force and independent of the government, and its influence on the Republic is self-evident. So it is conceivable that Krupp has always been a supplier of military weapons.

So Alex said directly: "Your Excellency, our government has always paid attention to the relationship with Germany. At the same time, it has not forgotten your country’s help to Romania’s industrialization. For this reason, His Majesty Edel has repeatedly extended to the suffering German people. Help. Moreover, our country’s cooperation with Krupp has been very successful before. So far, all the artillery produced in China are made by Krupp’s craftsmanship."

After complimenting the other party first, Alex finally said his intentions: "So our country hopes that this kind of cooperation can continue, and considering the actual situation of Krupp, our country hopes that this kind of cooperation can be deepened. You must know that Krupp is known for producing heavy artillery, and Germany cannot continue to produce this kind of artillery at present. This is a huge loss for Krupp."
