My America

The construction of the factory actually has two main points. The first is that it is geographically close to the place of origin of the raw materials. Just like Chicago, it is close to the largest iron ore mine in the United States before it forms the current steel center. Squeezed the Carnegie family who started very early.

Another important point is that it is very close to the market, and the products produced are easy to sell, so that it can also share the operating pressure. The later Republic market actually focuses on the latter point. The products produced by the world's factories must first meet their own needs, and then find international sales.

The benefits of being able to produce more than these, first of all, regardless of the quality, can always reduce some domestic costs. The quality must not be lacking at all, otherwise, I really agree to be stuck in the neck.

Sheffield does not need to look for examples from the history of the Soviets or the Republic. Just thinking that since the Nokia mobile phone was killed by a Microsoft Trojan horse, the entire European mobile phone market has become a market for other mobile phone manufacturers to collect IQ tax.

The price is higher and the configuration is lower. Although the two major VO manufacturers have been criticized for high prices and low prices for a long time, in the European market, all mobile phone manufacturers are VO, and they invariably charge Europeans IQ. The reason is that after the collapse of the Nokia empire, there is no mobile empire in Europe. If there is no self-produced and demand, it will end like this.

The business rules are like this, if you want to develop strong, no one has me, some people are strong, otherwise it is arbitrary.

Sheffield chose to start with agricultural machinery, or because the right to speak of agriculture in the United States is in the south. He has this foundation. Even if he finally produces a shit, it is no big deal to use his own land as a test product. Anyway, there is no shortage of land at home. Self-sale must also be maintained.

After deliberation with representatives of the Ruhr area, Sheffield finally decided to abandon the idea of ​​buying land in the north, stick to the Dixie bottom line, and build the envisaged factory in Texas.

"Why should it be established in the South? Obviously, the North has better convenience!" Hans didn't understand the move.

"Because the market is in the south, and possibly in the west, I want to spread the market faster, so I want to be closer to the market, which is more convenient. As for the raw materials, the problem is actually the same. Shipping raw materials from the north to produce, The journey is the same as when it is produced from the north and sent to the south. Furthermore, I have to take into account the feelings of citizens in the south. "

Sheffield ignores this kind of reminder. Since the two plans to set up factories have their own pros and cons, then Sheffield cannot naturally deviate from the interests of the Dixie people. The group of Yankees who set up factories from the north will not necessarily thank themselves. If you do n’t give it, why give it to the gang of bastards.

"Of course you are right, but our layout in Germany is based on the Ruhr area. The situation in every country is the same. Mr. Sheffield has his own considerations." The representative of Thyssen United Company made a comparison with other Germans. Indicate that you do n’t need to be irritable and stop entangled in this matter.

We Dixies starved to death, jumped upstairs and pulled Yankee back! How can you, Germans, understand the feelings of a blind family in our United States?

"Does the principle of proximity to resources have of course its own advantages, but the specific situation is analyzed in detail. The market is also very important, and for our United States, it is slightly different from the situation of the German Empire." Sheffield also respects these foreign technicians, The Ruhr area of ​​Germany is indeed a typical industrial area with the principle of proximity to resources.

The distribution of later Soviet heavy industry is actually the same, as well as the northeast of the Republic. This layout is actually very suitable for the layout of heavy industry, and it is especially suitable for the military pillar industry to be placed there. The layout of the military industry can avoid shortcomings to the greatest extent. Military industry and civil industry are different after all. The former has its own Features.

With the country as the unit, the resources are nearby. In fact, the most feared thing is international trade and the globalization of future generations. Because a country's resources are abundant, it is impossible to compare with the whole world. Your domestic iron ore is not bad, but Australian iron ore is buried shallower and of higher quality. You have a lot of oil, and Saudi Arabia is not only more expensive than you but also cheaper than you, which is embarrassing.

The globalization of later generations directly turned the northern industrial zone of the United States into a rust belt. In order to restore this rust belt, the best way is to fight. Once the war comes, these industrial zones will resume their former prosperity, and it must be a large-scale war. No small fights can only make these industrial zones barely maintain.

On the one hand, Sheffield has already set a stepping stone to enter the industry. On the other hand, a storm is brewing that escapes the political sphere beyond the sight of most citizens of the United States.

Of course, in the eyes of irrelevant ordinary citizens, this is just a breeze, and it seems to have nothing to do with themselves. But in the eyes of some people involved, this event is a huge storm that has never been seen before. Many people, including Sheffield and Rockefeller Jr., are holding their breath and waiting for the last moment to come.

Not even in the industrial sector, Boston bankers and New York bankers are sitting in dire straits, waiting for news from the House and Senate that this patent bill can determine many things, not just in the industrial sector.

Sheffield, standing by the window of the three-story building of the Illinois Farming and Animal Husbandry Association, no longer knows how many times he has taken pocket watches from his breast pocket. The tension under the calm complexion is obvious, and the other hand continues to perform meaningless activities. It seems to be the attitude of alcoholics.

A quick phone call scared Sheffield and almost jumped up. John Conner picked up the phone and listened, and said respectfully to Sheffield, "Master William, you are looking for you."

"William Sheffield!" Sheffield held the phone in her neck, her eyes still on the pocket watch that she did not know how many times she took it out, and watched the second hand passing by one second after another.

"William, the cross-examination of the House of Representatives and the House of Representatives has been passed, and now we are waiting for the approval of President Cleveland!" Sheffield heard the feeling of relief from Rockefeller Jr.'s tone.

On the other end of the call, Rockefeller Jr. poured a glass of red wine for himself as a reward, and said with a smile, "Many friends are very happy, which means that a new rule has been established. Come here at night to talk about it?"

"Okay!" Sheffield put down the phone and stuffed her pocket watch into her pocket. Her face was full of painful expressions that I wanted to hold back and couldn't laugh. Finally, I couldn't hold back the rampant cry. Pick them out, start with movie patents, and bankrupt them! "

This will be a gluttonous feast that has never been seen before. Sheffield suddenly remembers a sentence in the textbook. In the late nineteenth century, capitalist countries have successively entered the stage of imperialism.
