In the Taihe Palace, the railroad tycoons in the United States, they were all a little depressed, because they felt that they were all played by Li Mengyang, the emperor.

It should be said that these tycoons are not chicks, they have never regarded Li Mengyang, the emperor, as a good man and a woman, but today......

This robbery is too ruthless, isn't it?

Yes, anyone can see that you, the emperor, want to let us out of the game without spending a single soldier or a single shot.

"Public-private partnership, public-private partnership." Of course, Li Mengyang saw the expressions of these people on the dragon chair, and he had already laughed in his heart. Therefore, these two sentences are emphasized, which means that you also have certain rights in the future.

But then speaking of this matter, it seems that I am robbing myself now, but in fact, this is not the case, okay?

I gave you benefits before, didn't I?

I gave you money before, didn't I?

You guys don't think it's good now? What did you do when you asked for money and benefits before?

Yes, in the end, it's all right, but these capitalists definitely don't think so.

Let's put it this way, Li Mengyang once heard a case, that is, after a financial tsunami, there was a bank in the United States called AIG, this guy was going to fall, and the US government took action, and the result was that more than 180 billion US dollars were spent, but then ......

"The U.S. government's actions are shameful, it's bastard...... "The original boss of that AIG wants to sue the U.S. government......

Anyway, most of the capitalists are white-eyed wolves, and that's right.

Li Mengyang has no mercy for these people, and now he will tell you. Get out!

So. To come out or not to come out? Public-private partnerships in the future. That doesn't count what you said, at most it can only be followed by dividends, so ......

"Your Majesty!" That's when Carnegie came out.

Of course, Li Mengyang knows Carnegie, but there are too few people who don't know him in China, because in the propaganda of GZ big V, Carnegie is a legend, and his character is a leverage!

Dale Carnegie was almost a perfect example of a businessman. That's what most of the public knowers say anyway, but it's not ......

Li Mengyang remembers that during the Civil War, Carnegie paid $300 in order not to go to the battlefield.

Yes, this kid actually has a black background, hehehe......

So, what did Carnegie have to say?

"I just want to ask Your Majesty, if Your Majesty takes over the entire empire's railway system, then how will Your Majesty make a profit? In fact. I know very well in my heart that even now all of our railroad companies are combined. However, we still don't have the confidence to make a profit. "I have to say, Carnegie's insight is still very powerful.

In fact, the current American railroad bubble, duplicate construction, and malicious competition certainly exist, but is this thing the main cause?

Carnegie didn't think so, and he always felt that there was still some room for development on the railroad now.

Let's just say that these individuals present are all tycoon-level figures, and they are all human spirits, but have any of them stopped the construction of the railway?

The answer is no!

The more there is none, it can be seen that it is a problem of malicious competition, but everyone has not stopped, so what is the reason?

In fact, if you want to save it, everyone is still optimistic about the future of the railway!

To put it bluntly, everyone thinks that the future prospects are bright and there will be money to be made.

Don't underestimate this mentality, because it's actually the key to determining market behavior!

Let's talk about the problem of the stock market, why is it rising?

Because we are confident about the future!

Why is it falling?

The money is gone!

This is an expectation, and good expectations can bring investment, so, on the other hand, behind the repeated construction of malicious competition, in fact, is unanimously optimistic about the future!

It's weird, right, but that's what it is, otherwise who would be stupid?

But now there is a big problem, and that is that the railways are not being used to the fullest!

There is no problem with passenger transportation, many people do railways, but others, in terms of freight, there are a lot of problems.

To put it bluntly, Carnegie has his own unique views on the development of railways, that is, the current railways are not completely because of vicious competition, but because the capacity has not been fully utilized, and this freight is the most critical.

Because of the Age of Discovery, everyone likes to take the sea route, the sea route is cheaper, and even more, because of the opening of the Panama Canal in the United States, there is no dead end in shipping, and you can transport the goods back and forth by ship.

So, the real situation is actually like this, sea freight is cheap, a large number of goods are shipped by sea, and the cost of the railway is here, expensive!

I have to say that Carnegie is still a very good person, he sees the key to the problem, the real competition is actually the competition with the sea route, so to solve this problem......

"Your Majesty! I have an idea. Carnegie saw that Li Mengyang hadn't spoken much, so he continued: "Should some legislation be passed, such as mandating that the freight price of sea freight should not be too low......

This one...... Well, by this time Carnegie had become a member of the Communist Party, and he strongly hoped that the state would come out and intervene in market behavior!

"......" Li Mengyang felt funny in his heart, because this Carnegie was really a big capitalist, but now he was in the state of a materialist proletarian.

"That's impossible!" Li Mengyang's answer was simple and clear!

Of course, this can't be the case, Li Mengyang doesn't care much about the market behavior itself, although he is not completely letting go, but he absolutely cannot interfere with such market behavior, and the intervention in the market mainly has to be made from the monetary side, and the forced intervention in the market is a planned economy.

"Then how is Your Majesty going to solve it?" Carnegie couldn't think of a solution.

"Let's start with a public-private partnership." That's what Li Mengyang said.

"......" all the railway tycoons were speechless.

In fact, this Carnegie should be the conscience character of these railroad tycoons.

Really, when Li Mengyang was in later life, he read a lot of stories about Carnegie, and they all said that he was a unique conscientious businessman in the world...... Really, that story is called a love entry one by one.

But not ...... Don't forget that during the Civil War, this guy was a citizen-aged, and he was supposed to go to war, but he handed in the 300 US dollars.

Well, this can't say too much, but Li Mengyang also knows that this guy is definitely not as morally flawless as various chicken soup texts in later generations.

So, what did Li Mengyang do?

How can he make this railroad that lost money and couldn't do it into a profitable economy?

At the end of the meeting, Li Mengyang still kept Carnegie behind......

"Your Majesty! What do you want to tell me? Is there really anything you can do to save the railway? "Dale Carnegie is very happy, this is special treatment, how can ordinary people have this opportunity?

"That's what the railroad is all about, and no one can save it." Li Mengyang replied directly.

“WHAT？” Needless to say, Carnegie's expression was too unexpected.

He was really excited before, His Majesty the Emperor might have something to say, and he called over in particular, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

"The railroad can't save it, but we can do something else." Li Mengyang said simply, "The reason why I asked you to stay is mainly because you still have some ideas, let's put it this way, the railway companies, if they can live, they will live, and if they can't live, they will be shut down directly, and as for other ...... How much of your current capacity is in surplus? ”

"Capacity? Excess? As soon as Carnegie heard it, he understood that he was building railroads, that is, how much of his construction capacity exceeded the needs of this market, but the question, "Not much, not much." ”

I'm sorry to answer!

Ordinary people are like this, and they have said before, if it doesn't work, turn it off, and the production capacity is so much, isn't it going to be closed very ruthlessly?

Let's put it this way, from the perspective of the producer, they don't want to make their own production smaller, because if they become smaller, they will make less money, and what they hope is to expand the market.

In fact, capitalism has been like this since the beginning, they are constantly looking for a market, and their appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and what Li Mengyang is talking about now is completely anti-capitalist thinking.

So......

"It's not for you to turn them all off!" Li Mengyang knew that this was the case, so he smiled and said: "Leave the good ones and the ones with strong ability, and then come to China and build here!" ”

"Huh? This, this is great! "Carnegie is so happy!

Yes, isn't there a lot of markets?

Although it requires a lot of costs, it doesn't matter, at least it solves a lot of problems.

You must know that the railway is not only a problem of the railway company, but also involves the steel company, the locomotive company, and the arrangement of manpower...... Anyway, it's very, very much, and now there's another piece in the market, and no matter how you look at it, it's a great opportunity to release capacity.

But......

Is that what Li Mengyang meant?

You know, it takes a lot of money to build this railway......

"As for the American railroads, of course we can't let them rust, so let's take the lead, go back to those people and sum it up, it's not profitable anyway, then let's make another deal together......"

What is this sale?

"Your Majesty, please make it clear!" Carnegie couldn't think of it at all.

"So, let me tell you, you go back and hire people to make some printed slips, and list all kinds of things on them, from food to clothing, as small as a toothpick, as big as a car, and if someone needs a plane, it can also be ......."

"Huh?" Andrew. Carnegie was completely stupid.

"Send such documents to the people along the railway, let them fill in what they like, to put it bluntly, what they want to buy, and then confirm it, they want to buy it, okay, we will ship it to them!"

...... Carnegie didn't know what kind of business it was.

To put it simply, people in later generations, especially Chinese, can understand that this is ......
