The Boeing Aircraft Factory in Seattle was the world's largest aircraft factory. It was located in Everett, Washington, about 50 kilometers away from Seattle's city center.
It covered an area of 365 hectares and was as big as 36 football stadiums. It had a huge engine shed and a test track. There were six doors in the factory, each 25 meters high and 107 meters wide. It was the size of an American football field. People and cars looked very small in front of it.
During the bombing of Seattle, the Boeing factory was also hit by a Qinglong missile, which blew up a big crater on the runway. Except for this crater, the other places were not damaged. Even the production line's production line was still there, there was no change.
In the past, there were more than 20,000 workers here. After the Americans retreated, there was no one here. After half a year, the weeds in the green belt had grown much taller than the carpet grass. In the past, there were no cars in the crowded parking lot. The lively factory was like a dead city.
But all of this changed on the first of March. The Americans from the east had entered the factory. The first line of workers, the second line of researchers, and the third line of logisticians were coming from Canada.
The staff of the Republic of China Aerospace Equipment Factory was waiting for Boeing's technology. He needed to communicate with the other party and tell them that the traditional Boeing aircraft had to undergo three major changes. First, the materials used were all high strength alloys from Singapore. Second, the engines were all changed. Third, the energy source was all replaced with light oil.
The previous Boeing 797 jet aircraft had a 265-foot wingspan. It could comfortably carry 1000 passengers, fly a distance of 16000 kilometers, and fly at 0.88 supersonic speed, or 1046 kilometers per hour. The appearance of the modified Boeing 797 did not change much, but its flying speed had reached 1.5 supersonic speed, which was 1689 kilometers per hour. Its flying distance was 40000 kilometers, which happened to circle the equator, and the time it took to circle the equator was exactly 24 hours.
The curious Americans were unwilling to give up the opportunity to experience the supersonic passenger plane. It only took a month for all the workers who had worked in the aircraft factory to return to Seattle. They returned to their old houses and returned to their old posts. They joked that they had only been traveling for half a year.
Under the leadership of Boeing, most of the employees of the old companies in the west returned. Jinshan, Los Angeles, San Diego, Cincinnati, Las Vegas, Augustine … The former companies restarted their operations as if the war had never happened.
The workers in these enterprises were arrogant at first. They thought that they had brought industrial civilization to New Xia. Without them, New Xia would still be in the agricultural era. When they saw that a large porcelain factory had appeared out of nowhere in Nevada, they knew that Xin Xia didn't really care whether they were there or not. With this porcelain factory, not only could they feed all of Xin Xia's citizens, but most importantly, compared to the products of the porcelain factory, other industrial products were like trash, not even worth mentioning.
If it was said that Xin Xia's immigration this time was entirely self-funded, then that was not entirely true. In the hometown of Chinese porcelain, Xin Xia had invited a group of technicians to Xin Xia at public expense. There were more than 80,000 skilled workers with their families, totaling more than 200,000 people. This group of workers and Translation of the porcelain...
The first batch of porcelain was the body of the Qinglong 29 missile. It was an all-ceramic missile that replaced all metal, which surprised the world. When the first all-ceramic car engine was installed in a car, the world boiled over. The all-ceramic engine, which used thin oil as the raw material, was economical in fuel consumption, stable in performance, and would never wear out. It made the global automotive industry go crazy.
Previously, Toyota of Japan's production base in the United States and Canada's production base in Ontario were all moved to Xinhe. They were concentrated into a huge production base to produce the new Harmony brand series of cars. They were installed with the all-ceramic engine produced in New Xia's Nevada province. Once the product was launched, it was immediately in short supply. The three major car factories in the United States were hostile to New Qin. They could not obtain the all-ceramic engine produced in Nevada and were on the verge of bankruptcy.
The launch of an all-ceramic submarine at the Longqi Shipyard of the Republic of China attracted the attention of the global military and media. The spokesperson of the Republic of China had a rather proud comment about the vessel, which was that it would never rust. According to the comments of experts, the battery-powered all-ceramic submarine not only would never rust, but it also had another function, which was that it could be completely invisible in front of current radars. This was because the new type of porcelain did not reflect radar waves.
When New Song's first jet saucer shaped fighter jet appeared, the all-ceramic storm reached its peak. It had the same shape as the legendary UFO. In the middle of the saucer was a spherical cabin. The cabin was suspended in the middle of the saucer. No matter how the saucer spun and turned over, the spherical cabin would always remain in a roly-poly position. It would not roll along with the saucer. In addition to the spherical cabin, the other parts of the saucer were filled with various weapons and power jets. Not only could it float in the air, but it could also fly at high speed. The highest speed it could reach was Mach 40. The people in the spherical cabin would not be affected at all. According to the developers, only the all-ceramic shell could support such high speed flight and withstand such high air friction and extreme heat. Other than that, any other metal would be useless.
Everyone believed that this was the first weapon on Earth that could duel with aliens.
Feng Li became the most powerful Minister of Industry and Energy in the world. For his porcelain, the Americans had approached him many times. Chen Weizheng told him that he could sell it to anyone but the Americans. If a third country sold it to the Americans, they would have to cut off their supply.
There were really people in the world who valued money more than their lives. Colombia in the Americas dared to do such a thing. When they sold 50 car engines to the Americans at a high price, they immediately became blacklisted by New Xia. Not only New Xia, but also the other nine countries unanimously announced that Colombia was the first country to be blacklisted.
Colombia did not expect the problem to be so serious. They quickly sent diplomats to negotiate. New Xia's Foreign Minister, Du Shaofu, smiled and told the other side that once a mistake was made, it would be difficult to change it unless time turned back. The next time you come to New Xia, please prepare an extra set of ears. The other side was scared out of their wits. The story of cutting off ears was known all over the world. However, as time passed, some people had forgotten.
What made Colombia depressed was that on the day their diplomats returned from New Xia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, and Venezuela all announced that they would cancel their trade relations with Colombia. Keeping a certain distance from Colombia was a guarantee to strengthen their relationship with Xin Xia and the other nine countries. There was one more thing that they did not mention, which was that even if Xin Xia attacked Colombia, they should not be involved. They were not willing to be caught in the crossfire.
With Colombia as an example, all the countries in the world did not dare to have too much contact with the Americans. Establishing too much contact with the Americans meant distancing themselves from New Jiu Xin High School. This was not something a normal ruler would do. Even countries like Britain and France that had been on good terms with the Americans began to consciously distance themselves from the Americans. At least, they did not have any economic relations with the Americans.
What the Americans couldn't figure out was that their local automobile companies couldn't get all-ceramic engines, but their automobile production bases in other countries could. There was only one condition, and that was to abandon the American brands and use the local brands in the production base. For example, General Motors in China used to be called Shang Qi General Motors. Now, it could only be called Shang Qi General Motors. They could not add the word "General Motors" and could not use the tri-colored shield logo.
The global blockade made the Americans taste the feeling of being an isolated island. Mr. Dou Xiaokong, a famous commentator in the Republic of China, said that in the 1950s, the Americans had imposed a trade blockade on China. At that time, the method used was strong ships and cannons. After a few decades, China began to impose a trade blockade on the Americans. They did not use strong ships and cannons. Instead, they used pure economic and trade methods. Some places even used pure diplomatic methods. They could achieve their goals by just saying something. If this economic blockade continued for 15 years or longer like the blockade on China, the Americans would fall back to the economic level during the Civil War.
The Americans were not stupid. They did not need to pay for the government's mistakes. They began to withdraw their companies from the United States and moved to suitable areas. The first to do this was DuPont. After many contacts with New Qin, they decided to move all of their petrochemical industry to New Qin. Their products had no market in the United States. Because the Mobil Petrochemical Company in Dezhou, New Xia, was able to get the mother material of petrochemical additives from New Qin. All of their petrochemical products were at the same level as New Qin. These products were smuggled into the United States and occupied DuPont's living space.
Ford Motor Company was even more shameless. They directly found someone to contact Minister Luo Yi in New Xia and wanted to move the entire Ford Motor Company from Detroit to Nevada. Zhang Zhengping proposed a series of company names, nationalities, ethnicities, and other conditions. The other party completely agreed. In the face of survival, these were nothing. Only the old-fashioned China people had once said that starvation was a small matter, but losing one's integrity was a big matter. The Americans were different. They knew that if they starved to death, losing their integrity or not had nothing to do with them.
The American government did not interfere much with the relocation of these companies. They knew that once the companies could not engage in global trade, only death would await them. The United States of more than four million square kilometers had 300 million people. If they could reduce the population by one-third, they could enter a self-sufficient small farming economy. Even if the global blockade was not important to them, it would not matter to them. Men ploughing and women weaving, that was the traditional well-off society in China's mind. It was the traditional celestial life of China. Canada in the north could live a good life, not to mention the United States of America, which had much better natural conditions. They focused on developing civil enterprises and did not enter the game of superpowers. The Americans could also enjoy a good life.
