Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

Zou Du pulled Hu Zhenhua aside. Just now his face was full of rosy glow, but now, only sorrow remained.

"Mr. Hu, something went wrong!"

Hu Zhenhua had already guessed the possibility and asked tentatively,

"Is it that the foreign banks are refusing to lend money?"

Zou Du's face was filled with disbelief.

"I just received the news. How did you know?"

"I have my sources. Don't worry, I'll handle this. You should hurry up and set the standards. Also, make the vehicle more aesthetically pleasing, and polish the corners into arcs. I call the four-wheeled transport vehicle a 'Sibu Xiang' (a strange creature), but you can't really make it look like one!"

"Don't worry, I know!"

After getting Hu Zhenhua's guarantee, Zou left happily!

Major manufacturers were busy discussing standardization in this wilderness. Some of them lay on the hood of the engine, writing and drawing, while others had heated arguments.

Hu Zhenhua looked at them with a smile on his face.

Follow me, Old Hu, and your life of slavery will begin!

Hu Zhenhua looked at the notebook in his hand, on which was a picture of a car seat belt.

What he drew was a three-point seat belt, which became very common in later generations. This type of seat belt was only invented in the late 50s.

In fact, the development of seat belts has a long history.

The earliest seat belts appeared in 1885 and were used on horse-drawn carriages to prevent passengers from falling off.

The first seat belt used in cars appeared in 1902, when a car race was held in New York. In order to prevent himself from being thrown out of the car at high speed, a racer tied himself and his companion to the seat with several belts. During the race, their car accidentally crashed into the crowd of spectators, killing two people and injuring dozens of people. However, the two racers survived because of the belts. This was the prototype of the seat belt.

In 1911, Americans installed seat belts on airplanes, but the purpose was not for safety. Instead, it was because in some wars at the time, the take-off and landing sites were uneven and the pilots could not control the aircraft's taxiing well. The role of the seat belt was to better fix the body to the seat.

Later, Y-type seat belts and two-point seat belts appeared one after another, but their applicability was not ideal.

Hu Zhenhua's mouth curled up. Just by relying on the seat belt, he could just eat and wait for death for the rest of his life!

He was only fantasizing for a few minutes before he was brought back to reality.

Wang Mo, that traitor, is back. He's really trying his best, jogging with beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Old, brother, did I miss another wonderful show?"

Hu Zhenhua laughed.

"Without your participation, Brother Wang, how can it be called a good show!"

Wang Mo wanted to laugh out loud, but he ran too fast and was out of breath. When he opened his mouth, he almost fainted.

Hu Zhenhua quickly supported him and used the notebook in his hand to fan him to cool him down.

"Brother, don't be anxious, take a breath first!"

Wang Mo looked at the big sun in the sky and complained,

"Brother, can't you just find a cool place to stay?"

"I'm standing in the sunshine, waiting for you, brother!"

Wang Mo laughed dryly twice, pulled Hu Zhenhua under the shade of a tree, and after a long pause, he asked,

"What are you all busy with? You're all so motivated!"

"The sample car they provided was far from ideal. I set standards for them and asked them to provide a new one!"

Hu Zhenhua glanced at Wang Mo meaningfully.

"One of your Levi cars also failed the test. Brother, what's going on? Isn't Levi the leader in Shanghai's auto industry? I was hoping you'd show your face, but now you've revealed your true self!"

Wang Mo's old face turned red, and he turned around and shouted,

"Wang Lin, Wang Lin, where the hell have you been?"

He provided three sample vehicles, namely 2 tons, 4 tons and 8 tons, covering low, medium and high price ranges.

The one with the problem is the 8-ton one.

A moment later, a middle-aged man trotted over. It was his assistant Wang Lin.

Wang Mo had a stinky face and shouted,

"Tell me, what's wrong with the car? Why didn't it pass the test?"

As he spoke, he stole a glance at Hu Zhenhua's expression.

"Manager, Tongan's test was too violent. He knew there was a pothole, but he still sped over it!"

Wang Mo turned to Lao Hu and said with a smile,

"Brother, look at this?"

Hu Zhenhua snorted coldly.

"Brother, you have connections everywhere. Why don't you write a letter to the Ministry of Transportation and ask them to smooth out all the roads in the country? As long as there are no potholes on the ground, I won't say anything!"

Wang Lin saw that his boss was blushing a little because of the ridicule, and immediately retorted,

"Potholes are normal. As long as you slow down and drive carefully, our vehicles will be fine!"

Hu Zhenhua looked at him with a smile.

"Then Mr. Wang, please put up a sign in front of each pothole so drivers can see it from a distance and slow down!"

"Mr. Hu, you are making far-fetched arguments!"

Hu Zhenhua glanced at him and smiled.

"Brother, I have something else to do, please stay with me!"

After saying that, he turned and walked away. After walking a few meters, he heard a loud slap behind him!

"You bastard, you don't know your place. What's the relationship between Brother Zhenhua and me? He's our brother. Treat him like you treat me!"

As he spoke, Wang Mo kicked Wang Lin a few more times. Seeing Hu Zhenhua looking back, he ran over with a smile and put his arm around Hu Zhenhua's shoulders.

"Brother, don't bother with this bastard. It's too embarrassing! Don't worry, we'll test our cars the same way others do! I won't hesitate!"

"Brother Gao Yi!"

Hu Zhenhua looked at Wang Lin. Even though this guy had been beaten, there was not a trace of anger in his eyes. He was as docile as a sheep.

Old Hu was worried.

That shouldn't be the case. Where was that arrogant look just now?

That rebellious look disappeared in the blink of an eye!

Wang Lin saw Hu Zhenhua's gaze, trotted over, hunched over, and said flatteringly,

"Mr. Hu, I was rude just now. Please don't mind me."

Hu Zhenhua was puzzled by his attitude and nodded.

"A few arguments are nothing, don't take it to heart, Mr. Wang!"

Wang Lin secretly looked up and saw that Wang Mo looked normal, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Get out of here! Brother Zhenhua and I have something important to discuss!"

Wang Lin ran away as if he had been pardoned. He knew that he had passed this hurdle.

Hu Zhenhua was very curious about Wang Lin's performance. In the previous time and space, if the boss dared to scold him, he would quit immediately. Why is Wang Lin so cowardly?

A grown man, full of blood!

"Brother, you are really good at controlling your subordinates. How did you do it? Tell me!"

Wang Mo thought Hu Zhenhua was worshipping him and was quite pleased with himself.

"Brother, let me tell you, managing subordinates is a science. You can't be too nice to them. They are like women. They resent you when they are far away and disrespect you when they are close. You can't be too nice to them. You have to beat and scold them often. After a long time, they will get used to it. If you give them a little sweet treat occasionally, they will be grateful!"

Wang Mo looked at Wang Lin's receding figure, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.

"Take Wang Lin for example. He has parents and children to support, and a whole family to care for. If he doesn't obey, I'll kick him out right away! Do you think he dares to disobey?"

Hu Zhenhua bared his teeth.

"Aren't you afraid of pushing him too far?"

"What can he do if I force him into a corner? Bite me! If he dares to show his teeth, I'll pull them all out!"

Wang Mo suddenly remembered something and advised,

"Brother, your company's salary level is too high. This will cause instability!"

Hu Zhenhua asked doubtfully,

"The salary at their company isn't very high, is it? I've done some research, and it's barely enough to feed and clothe a family of five, with a few dollars' surplus at most each month!"

Wang Mo widened his eyes and shouted,

"That's not high enough! Brother, let me tell you, setting salaries is a science. You can't pay more than your peers, or you'll be hated! Also, you just said one person's salary is enough to feed and clothe a family of five, with a surplus. Let me ask you, after a few years of work, can an employee accumulate a hundred dollars?"

Hu Zhenhua calculated that if he saved 3 yuan a month, that would be 36 yuan a year. Within three years, if he didn't have any bad habits, he should have no problem saving 100 yuan!

"can!"

Wang Mo slapped his thigh.

"That's it. Employees have more ideas when they have money. If you ask them to work overtime, they won't want to do it. They might even think about becoming the boss themselves! Brother, the salary should be set so that the employee's family can only eat 80% full. That way, they have no way out and will work hard without complaint!"

Hu Zhenhua opened his mouth wide.

What the hell is this theory? It doesn’t match the education I received!

You treat me as a national hero, and I will repay you as a national hero!

You treat me like a passerby, and I treat you like a passerby in return!

You treat me like dirt, I will repay you with hatred!

People are all made of flesh and blood. Isn't gratitude a basic quality?

If you do this, you will become enemies with your employees!

Wang Mo seemed to see through Hu Zhenhua's thoughts and put his arm around his shoulders.

"Brother, I was naive once too. I even provided free lunch to my employees, but they didn't know what was good for them. They threw away the best rice without a second thought! They even complained about the food! Later, I stopped providing it and occasionally gave them some leftovers. Instead, they were grateful!"

Wang Mo hugged Hu Zhenhua's shoulders tightly.

"Brother, this is human nature! We and our employees only have an employment relationship. They work and we pay them. We owe them nothing. If they don't do their job well, I'll beat them up! We're not their parents, there's no need to sympathize with them!"

Hu Zhenhua looked at Wang Mo and muttered in his heart: Aren’t you also a worker?

He didn't want to discuss this topic with Wang Mo anymore. You, a black-hearted capitalist, treat your employees like this, how can you be responsible to your customers?

No wonder the car looks like that!

"Brother, I'm grateful for your advice! Oh, by the way, you were in such a hurry just now, did something happen?"

Wang Mo slapped his forehead.

"Hey, I almost forgot! The boss has close ties with the US, and he doesn't believe these vehicles were ordered by the US!"

Hu Zhenhua had already thought of a solution and said with a smile,

"This order is top secret!"

Wang Mo laughed twice.

"My boss called the embassy and the Far East Intelligence Bureau!"

Hu Zhenhua's heart skipped a beat.

Li Wei’s new boss has such a powerful background!

This is a big deal!

However, Old Hu looked normal and said with a smile,

"I don't want to explain anything further. If anything goes wrong, we'll be on the hook!"

Wang Mo chuckled, with a sinister look in his eyes.

"This is the Demon City. If you tease my boss, even the Jade Emperor can't save you!"

Hu Zhenhua looked at Wang Mo and knew that if he didn't give him an explanation, he would probably have a hard time getting away with it.

He took out his notebook, turned to a blank page, and began to draw. Soon, a simple map took shape.

Hu Zhenhua tapped a place on the map with his finger, then tore off the map and lit it with a match. After a moment, the burning ashes disappeared into the air.

Wang Mo obviously understood the international situation and said unconsciously,

"stick…"

Hu Zhenhua interrupted him quickly.

"Brother, do you want a stick to beat your clothes?"

Wang Mo quickly shut up.

Hu Zhenhua put his arm around Wang Mo's shoulders and whispered in his ear,

"Some things can only be done secretly! If leaked, it will change the regional situation. I don't know who your boss asked. Maybe this person's level is not high enough, or maybe this person didn't tell the truth!"

Hu Zhenhua patted Wang Mo's shoulder.

"That's all I have to say! Oh, by the way, I have one more condition. If you lose my car, you have to compensate me 500 million yuan!"
