When Cao Xiulan and others headed north to Anyang City, a banquet was being held in the main hall of Anyang City Lord's Mansion.
This was a dinner hosted by Li Xian himself, inviting all mid-level and above business representatives from Anyang.
These invited businessmen have been screened through layers and have no bad records. Moreover, these businessmen have another characteristic: they are all more or less involved in the "manufacturing industry."
Manufacturing is a term that has been hyped up recently in Anyang. Needless to say, the driving force behind it is Li Xian.
The so-called manufacturing industry naturally refers to the source enterprises of production, which are the foundation and pillars of an industrial and commercial society.
In just a few years, there have been hundreds of manufacturing businessmen in Anyang, ranging from general textiles to general smelting and even processing of wood furniture, of course, including general parts manufacturers and even well-known maintenance companies in the industry.
The scene was lively and even popular. Come to think of it, even though Anyang focused on the development of industry and commerce, it was the first time that the virtuous king personally invited guests; especially to receive an invitation from the virtuous king, it was an absolute honor.
As for the invitation letters, of course, they were not written entirely by Li Xian, but hundreds of them were all signed by Li Xian himself.
This was the first time that Li Xian made a grand invitation and signed it personally, which clearly conveyed one message - Anyang is going to make a big move!
Combined with the previous events and the information about "building Beidou New City" that had been released long ago, all the businessmen who received the invitation letters were almost rolling on the ground with excitement. Even Zhang Xianzhang, the president of the largest business group in Anyang, was excited when he received Li Xian's autographed invitation letter.
After three rounds of drinking, when the atmosphere reached its climax, Li Xian stood up and clapped his hands. When everyone turned around, Li Xian smiled and said, "Before we talk about business, let's watch a video that Anyang has just made."
Video? Everyone is familiar with it. Videos have long existed in the Adventure and Mercenary Association; billboards on the streets are no longer new.
However, this video is bound to shock all businessmen. It is a documentary filmed in Anyang, not a simple advertising video.
The development and changes of a society over several years are concentrated in a documentary of only about an hour, which can give people a great shock. The current documentary records the key points of Anyang's development.
From the first locomotive, to the first railway and the first train, to the airplane, the steel giant ship, the airplane, the buildings rising from the ground, the routes extending continuously, the flourishing commodities... until the last supersonic aircraft, the rocket launch, Hao Youcai led the fleet to explore the ocean!
Everything is changing rapidly, and the documentary is a comic book that brings all the shocks together. After watching the documentary, everyone suddenly realized that Anyang has come so far!
Finally, Dong Guanwu took the revised "Machine Age" and read aloud.
The food was already cold, but all the businessmen participating in the banquet were excited.
After Dong Guanwu sat down, Li Xian stood up again, "Everyone, what do you think?"
