Jagged Germany

"The French can think of such a way to solve the recoil problem of the artillery. It has to be said that it is admirable. They actually want to hide its performance. Obviously, they want to wait until the war starts and cheat the empire." Gu Staf Krupp said.

  Qin Tian nodded. The performance of the French 75mm field gun on the battlefield was indeed amazing. However, even so, it still cannot restore the decline of the French Army on the battlefield.

"Mr. Krupp, after knowing the method used by the French, can we develop a similar cannon and apply it to other cannons to increase the rate of fire of our cannon as much as possible." Qin Tian asked.

   "His Royal Highness, it should not be a big problem. With Krupp's technical strength, it is easy to do this." Gustav Krupp said proudly.

  Although, the solution to the recoil of the artillery that the French thought of was very subtle. However, German technology is definitely not bad. After learning the method adopted by the French, they were able to imitate it immediately, and even make further improvements on this basis.

   "If this is the case, it would be great. I hope that once the war starts, our artillery will be able to let the French and other enemies know how powerful we are." Qin Tian is full of expectations for the future war.

   "His Royal Highness, it will definitely be like that." Gustav Krupp said firmly.

  Qin Tian's trip to Krupp this time can be said to be fruitful. Not only did Krupp agree to speed up the development of larger-caliber naval guns, but it also allowed them to start the development of new infantry artillery. Of course, the biggest achievement is that the two parties partnered to establish a German arms company and entered the field of light weapons.

   Qin Tian left the Krupp company after seeing off the Krupp couple.

   "If the standard equipment of the German Army can be changed because of this, the combat effectiveness may be further improved. In that case, it will be easier to defeat those opponents in future wars." Qin Tian secretly thought.

   In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the German army, Qin Tian spared no effort, from the navy to the army, he thought of all the ways he could think of. It would be unreasonable if the German Army hadn't won the war despite all his efforts.

   After meeting with the Krupps, Qin Tian didn't stay in Berlin for long. A few days later, he received a notice from Paul Daimler, the general manager of Daimler, to Stuttgart.

  Daimler has been developing rapidly during this period, and its motorcycles have been rising steadily. Not only caused a wave of sales in Germany, but also exported to other European countries and even the United States. Many young men and women, in order to buy motorcycles produced by Daimler, give everything they have. Under such circumstances, even if Qin Tian donated motorcycles worth 50 million marks to the military, that would be nothing. After all, just two motorcycles are enough to make a lot of profits for Daimler.

   "His Royal Highness, welcome to Stuttgart." Paul Daimler had a smile on his face. Although Daimler AG has become a subsidiary of Deutsche Motor Vehicle Manufacturing Company, the profits of the Daimler family have also been reduced to 5%. However, the profit brought by this 5% stake is obviously much more than that of the previous Daimler.

   "Mr. Daimler, hello, I can see that you are in a good mood!" Qin Tian said with a smile.

"His Royal Highness, of course. You don't know how popular our products are now. The factory is already working on three shifts, but it still can't meet the demand of the market. The new factory is also under construction, and it is estimated that three It will be put into production in a month. At that time, it will relieve our pressure to some extent." Paul Daimler said.

In order to meet market demand and further increase market share, Daimler began to expand production capacity frantically, so as to seize as much market share as possible before other competitors developed the same type of products. .

  Qin Tian nodded, it is very necessary to expand the company's production capacity. In this way, more markets can be obtained and more profits can be obtained at the same time. Of course, further research and development of new products cannot be given up. Otherwise, it will soon be surpassed by competitors. It is impossible for any company to continue to develop with only one product.

   "How is the research and development of new products going?" Qin Tian asked.

"Your Highness, according to your request, we have already started the research on the second-generation motorcycle. Mr. Maybach, you are now in charge of the research and development of new products. The progress is very fast. It is expected that our second-generation motorcycle will be able to complete the research and development next year. now," said Paul Daimler.

  Although, he has some disagreements with Qin Tian's request to develop new products, thinking that their motorcycles will not be challenged by competitors so soon. However, he didn't dare to refuse Qin Tian's request, so he could only follow through. Although developing new products will cost a lot of money. But now the company's profits are so amazing that it is enough to support the development of new products.

  Qin Tian nodded: "I have to speed up the production of motorcycles that I personally donate to the military."

   "Yes, Your Highness." Although this will squeeze the company's production capacity, Paul Daimler has no objection to this. Now, Qin Tian's status is different. When Qin Tian bought Daimler before, he was just an ordinary prince. And now, Qin Tian has become the crown prince of the empire. The army is an important supporter of Qin Tian, ​​so it is natural to give priority to meeting the military's requirements.

  Wrinkled Accompanied by Paul Daimler, Qin Tian came to Daimler again.

  Qin Tian didn't go to the office, but went straight to the R&D department. Because, the main purpose of his visit to Daimler this time is to take a look at Daimler's new products and the upgraded version of the 'Phoenix' car, which is officially named after 'Daimler'.

   "Your Highness, you are here. This is a new generation of car developed according to your requirements. I have to admit that this is a work of art!" William Maybach looked excited. He believes that once their car is put into the market, it will cause such a big sensation. This will be a shock to the entire automobile industry. This will also give Daimler, after motorcycles, a second major product.

  Qin Tian nodded and looked at the car parked in the R&D department. Although it is still not as good as the cars of the later generations, it already has the characteristics of the cars of the later generations.
