How important is electrification? Sheffield actually doesn't know the significance of the electrification of the United States because he has not seen the relevant historical records. However, the Soviet Union, the life-long enemy of the United States, promoted electrification and made the Russian Empire, which was single-handedly defeated by the German Empire, in a short time

He instantly became the second best person in the world, and he knew this fact.

The rapid modernization of the Soviet Union was based on electrification. The more popular propaganda was that upstairs and downstairs, electric lights and telephones made the imperial Russia, which was beaten down, suddenly become an existence that makes the free world tremble.

Sheffield does not need to personally intervene in this matter. The southern states have their own public opinion here! The Civil War back then was a life-or-death battle. Due to the disadvantage of population, the South had mobilized people over the age of twelve in the second half of the war.

Boys went to the battlefield. The Union soldiers who went to the battlefield were only in their forties today and constituted the main population of the southern states.

At least until they are dead, this hostility will be slightly loosened. Once the North-South issue is involved, they can instinctively remember that their father and brother went to the battlefield and fought a decisive battle with the federal army in the north. Once the North-South issue is involved,

There's no way to keep Dixie people rational.

Farmers, planters and even factory owners in various states have automatically stepped into their roles to exert their influence and put pressure on state governments. In terms of the overall environment, the Democratic Party is still in power in Washington. Although the Republican Party has a better momentum, it is still

For an opposition party, criticism is allowed, but interference is basically impossible. The opposition party has the responsibilities of the opposition party, not to mention that within the opposition party, there are also many forces advocating reconciliation.

The North-South issue was brought to a head, and the momentum of public opinion shocked even the arsonist in Sheffield. He actually felt a guilt that shouldn't have appeared in his heart, but it was immediately forgotten. The Republican Party has been promoting hatred during election time for so many years.

, it’s not enough to do it once by yourself? You do the first grade and I do the fifteenth grade. Isn’t this fair?

The surge of public opinion in the southern states naturally quickly aroused reactions. As the victors, the northern Republicans and the Yankees in the northern states did not pay much attention to this kind of hateful report. Just pay attention to these dicks.

It is perfectly acceptable for Westerners to make a fuss, but why not accept it if they lose the fight?

Thirty years have passed since the Civil War, and many people have lost interest in campaigns based on hatred. I know that the Democrats may be imitating the Republicans to use hatred to consolidate their electoral support. Everyone knows that the economy has not been good in the past few years.

, should be to transfer the contradiction.

The first person to stand up publicly and speak out loudly about what is wrong is the representative of the American Dream in the hearts of the citizens of the United States, the great inventor with a disability, a man from the bottom to success, the lifelong enemy of Tesla, the advocate of direct current, the great inventor Mr. Edison

.Although the current war between Edison and Tesla was an undoubted failure.

However, through his early connections and close relationship with Morgan, Edison made Tesla, the winner, worse off than the loser. Edison believed that under the cover of time, Tesla would eventually succumb and become his shadow.

The background below. However, he never dreamed that there was someone in the United States who dared to confront Morgan, so he directly moved Tesla's research team to the south, and quickly started the electrification process.

Edison was the first to come out and accuse Tesla's AC of being unsafe. This is of course an old accusation. Moreover, this accusation is untenable. Edison mixed the AC and voltage standards together to bully ordinary citizens about electrical power.

The principle is not understood.

Tesla, who had re-established the laboratory, expressed his respect for Edison to the newspaper in Houston, and pointed out that alternating current and direct current had nothing to do with voltage standards. Edison may have been too hasty, causing the newspaper to call him out.

The content is wrong, and the successful operation of Nicaragua's hydropower station refutes Edison's statement.

The world's first hydroelectric power station was to be built at Niagara Falls, and the alternating current system was chosen because of its affordability and ease of manufacture. Westinghouse gave the task of designing and manufacturing to Scottish engineer George Forbes, who built the

The set of equipment produced uses three Tesla alternators. This power station was built with alternating current generators before Tesla with the support of Westinghouse Electric.

This year, the hydropower station was officially built, and the winner between DC and AC has been decided. It is meaningless to discuss this, so Tesla began to elaborate on the second question, telling the newspaper reporter, "In a broad sense,

The huge land and population in the south do not match. Unlike the densely populated large cities in the north, the population of the United States citizens in the south is much smaller, and there are not many large cities. If power is transmitted at a voltage of 110 watts, it will cause huge consequences.

It is a waste. It is precisely because of this ratio of land and population that it is okay to apply a voltage of 220 watts."

The southern states have their own national conditions. Tesla did not realize this difference. It was naturally instilled by Sheffield, and of course there is a reason for it. In fact, if the area of ​​the western states west of the Mississippi River is not included, the area of ​​the south is actually larger than the traditional

The north is larger. Of course, this includes Texas.

It's just that the population in the northern states is more densely populated, and there are not many big cities in the south. In this kind of living environment, it is very normal to use different voltages. Neither Sheffield nor Tesla mentioned the issue of the conflict between the north and the south.

It's as if he doesn't exist. Tesla really doesn't have this understanding, and Sheffield is covering up this problem.

But for Sheffield, the benefits of citizens accepting the Tesla voltage standard have nothing to do with themselves. The biggest benefit is that if the voltage in the north is 110 watts and the voltage in the south is 220 watts, then from the perspective of power loss

Considering the above, he can set the charging price by comparing it with the electricity price of the Yankees in the north. You have wasted so much electricity and set the electricity price. Even if I am one cent cheaper than you, I will make more than you.

Although the upfront investment is huge, the water will flow steadily, and it only needs to be a little cheaper than the 110-watt electricity price in the north. He is the most conscientious capitalist in the eyes of the citizens of the United States. Compared with other electric companies in the north, it is definitely not Sheffield who is scolded;

Will become the conscience representative of the United States.

After the current war, Tesla and Edison once again started a war of words over the safety of voltage. It suddenly attracted the attention of media and newspapers across the United States and became the focus. Some rumors of disharmony in the past were also
