Chapter 307: Preparing to build the World Expo

At the 404 Institute in Houston, Sheffield strongly expressed interest in power applications. Edith Rockefeller had returned to Chicago. He took the opportunity to return to the Texas base camp and yawned along the way.

The backward transportation in this era wasted a lot of precious time for slave owners. He once thought that an enterprise only needs one base camp, but it is far from enough. It involves industrial distribution and resources. In particular, the United Company is a Concern model enterprise. If he wants to do it himself, he will continue to turn around in major cities. Los Angeles, New Orleans, Houston, Austin, Arlington run randomly.

Even now, he seems to have heard of Anne, who is about to graduate, calling him in Austin ’s girls ’dormitory.

"Electricity has changed our lives, and Mr. Teslai understands this better!" After a long yawn, Sheffield opened his eyes wide and listless. "But in the prospect of electricity application, I still have a say as a businessman In order to facilitate the lives of citizens, sooner or later, home appliances will become an important part of family life. As the population increases, we need more job opportunities, which is why I continue to promote new industries. "

In fact, the old industries of the United States have their own hills, and various trust companies gather, and it is not easy to intervene. Trust in many small industries is actually a boss. Sheffield had no choice but to start creating jobs, hoping that the joint company's layout of emerging industries and overtaking in corners.

First of all, in the automotive field, the automobile has huge future prospects. Compared with railways, it is more flexible and can take people or materials directly to their own homes. It is faster, easier to care for, and cheaper than carriages. .

Convenience is an advantage, and it can solve many things. Everyone needs a certain amount of private space. When it comes to home, no one likes to be watched when they do bad things. The actors in certain movies are excluded. The car is equivalent to one's own activity space, which alone is much more powerful than the railway.

Entering the 1920s in history, the three pillars of industrial development in the United States are the automotive industry, which is the largest industrial sector in the United States. At that time, the United States had a population of more than 100 million, a car stock of 25 million, and one car for four to five people. Considering that at least half of the population is women, this is equivalent to one car for two or three people. Get rid of minors ...

Before World War II, the United States had become a veritable automobile kingdom, and now the automobile industry is in the hands of the slave owner, Sheffield. He not only killed Ford, the original car king, but also killed the city of Detroit.

With a strong production line in the automotive industry, New Orleans ’real estate has no worries about selling, because the population is constantly pouring in, and the automotive industry is providing job opportunities to make money. If you do both, it will bring real estate prosperity. If there is no pillar industry in a place, just speculation of housing prices is gambling. Of course, it is good to succeed. I ca n’t cry even if I collapse.

For at least thirty years, New Orleans ’property has no fear of depreciation and will only rise and not fall. If the previously built villas, apartments and buildings are full. That's better. The land near New Orleans belongs to Sheffield. They are slave owners. The meat is rotten in the pot. The biggest beneficiary is still Sheffield himself.

It can be said to be the overlord of the automobile industry. As long as the automobile industry has been developing steadily for ten or eight years, Sheffield can rely on the development of the automobile industry alone, and can talk with Morgan and Rockefeller to show off their battle-hardened side.

The inherent value of the car and some subsequent technological improvements make it the best personal transportation means as the world becomes more urbanized.

In fact, Rockefeller Jr. also expressed great support for Sheffield ’s courageous development. If every city, every town, and every village is connected with highways, and these highways are full of such oil Tiger, of course, more importantly, the oil tanks of these oil tigers are filled with standard petroleum company gasoline.

Rockefeller Jr. sees that Standard Oil ’s profits are rising every quarter, how can it not support the booming development of the automotive industry? Even Rockefeller Jr. publicly appealed that every citizen of the United States should have a car of his own. Such a life is the real American century.

It is this set of rhetoric that is deliberately eye-catching some people, because it is well known that the current behind-the-scenes of many railways is Morgan, and the two sides have just had a contest around the steel industry.

With the success of the automotive industry, Sheffield naturally began to prepare to enter the home appliance industry. Many home appliances have already appeared, and now it is almost a person to integrate. The job of the Tesla team is to make stable transformers. Because of the emergence of Southern Electric, the North and South voltage standards in the United States have changed.

"But having said that, Southern Electric is now pretty good at protecting capital. I haven't earned a dime for several years." Sheffield took a long breath.

"However, more people will thank you, William." Tesla expressed his respects. The reason why he did not make money is that Southern Electric is still moving toward the more sparsely populated Midwest. Expansion, in order to include a larger place in the radiation range of China Southern Power Grid.

Southern Electric's original profits in the southern states can't be compared with the northern electrical companies, and it has to invest money to enter the Great West. Sometimes think about it, Sheffield feels that he is as great as a state-owned enterprise. The milk is squeezed, worthy of the moral model of the capitalists of the United States.

Different voltages naturally lead to the emergence of household appliances with different voltages. This is not entirely a bad thing. In fact, thinking about transformers alone can sell money. Is n’t this a new industry?

Transformers are also not new, and are actually closely related to the emergence of alternating current. Lusson Goral and John Dixon Gibbs showed a device called "secondary hand generator" in London, and then took this The technology was sold to Westinghouse in the United States, which may be the first practical power transformer, but not the earliest.

In the competition that the power plant should output direct current and alternating current, the ability to use transformers for alternating current is one of its advantages. Transformers can convert electrical energy into high-voltage and low-current forms, and then convert it back, thus greatly reducing the loss of electrical energy in the transmission process, making the economical transmission distance of electrical energy farther. In this way, power plants can be built away from electricity. Most of the world's electricity finally reaches users after a series of transformations.

"There is still plenty of time. As long as you are prepared for all kinds of preparations, you will definitely have the opportunity to blockbuster in the world. How to promote and see me." Sheffield visited the Institute after a series of visits. The progress is quite satisfactory. After all, the faculty is strong, and it only integrates and optimizes many products that have already appeared. The pure technical difficulty is not particularly high, and it does not delay Tesla for how long.

As for this blockbuster occasion, it is actually very easy to handle, that is, an Expo is needed. In fact, many people do not know that there is no specific duration for the Expo, as long as there are enough contacts in the organization, it can be done. In Sheffield's memory, there were even times when it was held twice more in the same year.

But if no one remembers it, it can be said that no one thinks of the use of this thing in three to five years. As an emerging power in this era, the United States is very enthusiastic about this. But he is not as passionate as France. Although France has repeatedly deflated when competing with the British Empire for world overlords, it is very keen on showing the good side of France, which is equivalent to the soft power that later generations said.

The United States is really interested in the World Expo. It is after World War II that the world has been ruined. The World War II United States has not suffered losses. At that time, the world urgently needed to know the special status of the United States. Citizens could not help pointing out their own noses .

As of now, no country has said that it will host an Expo this year. Sheffield can and the Louisiana State Government have offered to host an Expo.

In fact, what the success of the World Expo is not successful, the slave owners do not care at all, just in the name of the World Expo, fooling the citizens of the United States, after all, the United States does not need the recognition of some European powers in the US century? At present, citizens of the United States are still very interested in the response of European powers. According to a sentence in the Chinese military book, this is a popular feeling, and the name of the World Expo is enough to attract the attention of many citizens.

Considering the climate of New Orleans, Sheffield set the matter at the end of the year. At the latitude of New Orleans, it is summer all year round, whichever season is okay, but before that, he needs to solve the problem of feminism and black people first.

Because he needed a bright and upright occasion, the cover was also a formal reason for the southern state governments to deal with black people and the world's attention to the World Expo. If the black people in the south were embarrassed, wouldn't they lose the entire United States? Does that mean rectifying social order? If this is the case, the feminist movement happened to expose the atrocities of black men in the south against black women. Did they give eye drops to the southern states?

Then, in order to hold the World Expo as scheduled, do the southern states need special affairs to show the high efficiency of putting black criminals into prison? As for the federal government, if the South is still in chaos during the 30 years of civil war, is it hitting the face of the federal government? Therefore, it is estimated that the federal government will also adopt a default attitude towards the actions of the southern states.
