My America
Chapter 104: Standard battle
"It's just normal business competition. Isn't it reasonable to use the term" enemy friend "!" Westinghouse chuckled, neither agree nor disagree with the words of the two, and don't seem to think that Morgan's pressure is remarkable. .
Sheffield secretly vomited, he actually did not like this type of businessman, too hypocritical. The businessman must do a good job of technology, push everything flat, or just look down and play like a pig and eat a tiger. He understands low-key. A businessman like Westinghouse, who looks very angry on the surface, but acts a lot in private, always reminds him to open his mouth. Shut up Jack Ma of Soul Chicken Soup.
"In this way, Westinghouse seems to think that it is powerful! When setting up an electrical network, I think it is better for the southern states to cooperate with General Electric!" Sheffield said with a mad air, "If it doesn't work, I It is also possible to inject capital into GE. I believe that Morgan is not a very monopoly person. "
"Master William really has a Texas tradition. It seems that your grandfather is rumored to be like this." Westinghouse's eyebrows raised a needle, and he expressed dissatisfaction with Sheffield's dissatisfaction.
"William doesn't mean that. Both are friends of Standard Petroleum. Negotiation is to discuss it. There was a desire to cooperate in the heart. Why hide it." Rockefeller Jr. was the time to open the circle and follow the temptation. "From Morgan The name of the merged company is GM, and the emperor of the financial world has a big appetite, do you say that? "
Westin House and Sheffield were silent as soon as this remark came out, and the meaning of the word GM represented a lot of other information. This shows Morgan ’s ambition to establish standards in the electrical field. All electrical engineering in the United States uses universally established standards.
This kind of ambitious name can be seen from the name. Another typical representative is the Standard Oil Company of the Rockefeller family. The name Standard Oil is even more straightforward than the general term. It uses Standard Oil as the standard to control everything in the oil industry.
If General Electric became a general standard, wouldn't a company like Westinghouse be destined to be crushed? Although Westinghouse had been touched, he still said, "Are you talking about it too seriously?"
"If it is someone else, it is not very serious. If it is Morgan, it is very reasonable to say that it is serious." Rockefeller Jr. smiled abruptly. "The flow of money in Morgan's hands is too strong. Westin Howe Mr. Si should understand that even if the electrical development is promoted at the same time, Morgan will come up later. Westinghouse Electric needs an alliance, even if the original intention is only to protect itself. "
"The Sheffield family is interested in contributing to the power of the United States Electricity, so there are not many powerful friends. Out of the long-term friendly relationship between Westinghouse Electric and Standard Oil, I am willing to be a middleman with the affirmation of my father. This cooperation. "Rockefeller Jr. politely stated his purpose.
This is definitely not for the discount of the Sheffield family's ocean-going fleet, nor is it for the Sheffield family to **** the exploration work in the Mexican territory, pure adult beauty.
"As for the purpose of my family is actually very simple, the needs of more than 20 million citizens in the 13 southern states!" Sheffield said again that Rockefeller Jr. felt arrogant, "The electrical field is extremely important to the south, because the vast farms in the south, Both need to introduce the latest electrical achievements. "
"For a long time, it seemed to be no good for Westinghouse!" Westinghouse reached out and rubbed his chin, shrugging. "It sounds more like introducing a competitor than helping Westinghouse against GE. Once I stand on the side of Master William, and two competitors have become three. What is the reason? "
"Triangles have strong stability, this is basic geometric knowledge, so the Egyptian pyramids will not stand." Sheffield said slowly. "I also have a patent license from Siemens, Mr. Westinghouse. Siemens is certainly no stranger, because Westinghouse has also received help from Siemens. The entire Tesla research team also holds shares in the name of the research team and becomes the chief engineer of the new electric company. The new electric company will inevitably appear in Houston. For Westinghouse Electric, cross-licensing each other ’s patents and jointly promoting the electrical development of the United States. "
Whether or not Westinghouse agrees or disagrees, new electrical companies will appear. Given the current embarrassing position of Westinghouse ’s second in the industry, regardless of whether Westinghouse releases goodwill, it is within the scope of GE ’s suppression. Just like the later relationship between the United States and the Soviets, no matter what the Soviet system is, it does not matter, as long as the Soviets exist for a day, the national power must be suppressed near the United States.
"Is it necessary for Tesla's research team to enter the electrical field? I have to say that young people have this courage. If I am thirty years old, I might do the same! Well, the two have patent licenses and jointly deal with it. General Electric. "Westinghouse sighed. He knew that the two young people in front of him were right. Westinghouse was GE's biggest competitor no matter what it did, and any kindness was useless.
"That's good, I believe that since the Sheffield family entered the electrical field, you can have a strong ally!" After leaving Westinghouse, Rockefeller Jr. sighed with relief, "I helped you this time, you It must be appreciated that the discount should not be less. In fact, this is beneficial to us. No matter from any aspect, Standard Oil is a big customer, and after the discount, my family can also reduce the cost. This is Win-win. "
"This kind of alliance is actually not reliable. In the end, we still have to rely on the strength of my family to promote electrification as soon as possible." Sheffield chuckled and said indifferently, "It's not impossible."
"It seems that you are not in a hurry to enter the electrical field, what means?" Rockefeller Jr. asked after being curious.
"You will know by then! Mr. Tesla will be very grateful for my help, and it will help him realize his dream!" Sheffield raised an eyebrow. "I want to implement his standards."
Now the voltage standard in the United States is that the voltage of one hundred and one volts is the result of Edison ’s numerous experiments. He believes that the voltage is the most stable and safest at one hundred and one volts. A power supply system also provides one hundred and one volts of electricity, so it has not changed until now. Even if Tesla thinks the 220V is safe, they have had fierce quarrels because of it.
Sheffield felt that this voltage standard was a pseudo-proposition, and it was also packaged as a soft essay to cherish life in the United States by the brainwashing text of future generations. The difference between the two voltage standards in his eyes is that Tesla's standard is equivalent to keeping you and a Siberian tiger in a cage at the same time. Edison's standard is to replace the Siberian tiger with a Sumatran tiger. Safe and unsafe.
