Chapter 1748 What kind of developing country is this?

Sandy arrived at the newspaper in tears. Many people in the newspaper were also affected by the recent social unrest and were depressed. Because they understood that the current situation was caused by their newspaper, but the result was not what they wanted to see.

Most of the readers of the Christian Science Monitor are elites, and are a newspaper published to the top and upper class of the United States. There are not many newspaper staff, but they always insist on their own opinions and naturally have to conduct in-depth analysis and reporting on the current social unrest.

"Sandy." The editor-in-chief called Sandy over, "In the current turmoil, many people have proposed the idea of ​​completely resisting rabbits. They need to impose sanctions on them from various aspects such as politics, military, and economic aspects. If you interview some authoritative people, I need in-depth reports and insights in this regard."

Sandy took on this task. He collected materials from government officials and scholars through phone calls, emails, personal visits, etc. The conclusion was that "comprehensive sanctions are all means of playing against weak countries. For a big country like Rabbit, economic means are the only way."

As for economic boycotts, a few years ago, an American journalist wrote that he did not use goods made by rabbits within a year. The conclusion was that food, clothing, housing and transportation were very difficult in all aspects. If he did not buy rabbit products, his living expenses would rise sharply.

And today, has America's dependence on rabbit goods deepened?

The results of the preliminary investigation made Sandy very happy... At present, among all kinds of food, clothing, housing and transportation products in the US market, "Rabbit Manufacturing" has declined sharply. For example, in terms of clothing, Vietnamese manufacturing has begun to occupy a large market.

Companies in Southeast Asia, Latin America and Africa have developed greatly in the past decade, and Rabbit has many competitors in low-end products. The United States can still buy a large number of American goods in terms of food, clothing and use.

The United States has developed agriculture, and basically fresh food and grain are produced domestically. The food processing industry is also locally manufactured. Even many Chinese supermarkets with low prices and Vietnamese supermarkets are selling American products. Daily necessities and furniture products are all made in the United States.

Among the top 500 in the world, American companies also have a great advantage. Apple, HP, ibm, Cisco, GM, Ford, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Boeing, Lockheed, DuPont, 3m, Johnson & Johnson. These super companies are still extremely powerful and have made huge profits.

"Many economists and business leaders believe that Greater America's manufacturing industry is still in a rising period, not a rebound after the previous economic crisis, but a structural long-term lead.

In the current era of globalization, it is difficult for a country's goods to dominate the US market. The division of labor and transfer of global industries gives us more choices. So without rabbit manufacturing, we can replace goods from other countries."

After writing this report, Sandy himself felt very happy. He felt that he had broken some kind of curse, and a long-standing view was no longer correct. Times have changed. Without rabbits, the lives of the American people will not be worse.

After writing the manuscript, Sandy planned to make some more polish and send it to the editor-in-chief. Before that, he decided to go out for a big meal to relieve his nervousness these days. For this reason, he even hooked up with a female editor from the newspaper for dinner. At the table, he inevitably mentioned the work he had just finished.

"Oh..., you mean we don't need to panic about the country on the other side of the earth?" The female editor seemed interested in Sandy's point of view and asked with a smile.

"Of course." Sandy showed off some of the data and interview materials of her own investigation. "The rabbit has always claimed to be a developing country. I think it is necessary for us to be alert to them, but there is no need to panic. We are still the best country on the planet."

"Is that?" the female editor groaned, and she rolled up a piece of bacon from her plate with the fork in her hand and asked, "Do you know Smith Field Food Company in the United States?"

"What?" Sandy suddenly became silent. As an intern reporter who had just taken office, he really didn't know much about any food company.

Seeing Sandy being stupid, the female editor opposite had the joy and interest of being a role model. She continued: "Smith Field Food Company has four pig factories, more than 800,000 breeding pigs, and forty pork processing plants, with an annual slaughter of more than 15 million."

"Oh..., it's amazing." Sandy could only exclaim, "This must be our American company, right? I knew we were the best."

"Smith Field Foods is really great. It is the world's largest pork producer and its products are marketed all over the world. But just a few years ago, it was acquired by a rabbit company." The female editor shrugged slightly and expressed helplessness.

"Ah..., this sounds bad." Sandy also stirred up the bacon on her plate. She thought it was very good just now, but now she smells like chewing wax.

Americans also have a sense of honor. In fact, to combine a big country, you always need strong cohesion and identity, otherwise it will be a mess. When the American flag was flying all over the world, Americans were proud and humorous, able to accept criticism from the outside world, and willing to help others.

And now..., sorry, the glory of victory in the Cold War lasted for more than ten years, and everything changed. Sensitive, suspicious, restless, these new traits appeared on Americans. America is still strong, but it is becoming increasingly unable to meet many challenges.

Many people think that only rabbits in this world do not accept American values. Don’t joke, there are more countries that don’t deal with Americans. For example, when I started an “OPEC”, Isn’t it just a big oil domineering dog in the Middle East? So don’t you think that the whole world listens to the Americans.

At the dining table, the female editor continued to educate: "In the clothing industry, Vietnamese manufacturing is indeed seizing the rabbit market. But the most powerful textile industry in the world is still the rabbit.

Moreover, the rabbit is not the simple "world factory" of the past, but in fact it has become a "world market". Its exports and imports have an increasingly greater impact on the world, and even the United States cannot leave the huge demand of the 1.4 billion population.

Rabbits are not only exporting physical goods to the outside world, they are increasingly investing in financial investments. For example, you want to ask me to see a movie later, right? The amc cinema chain we are going to and the movies shot by Legend Pictures are no longer simply made in the United States.”

Sandy was shocked, "They were all acquired by Rabbit's businesses, too?"

"This is news from many years ago." said the female editor.

"fuk!" Sandy couldn't help but curse, "A developing country actually came to acquire our big company. What kind of developing country is this?"

The female editor smiled and said, "Do you think rabbits can only make some gadgets such as clothing, food, toys? People have long stopped developing such low-key industries. Now even the British are looking for rabbits to repair nuclear power plants, and there are fewer and fewer things they can't do in this world.

In the past, the United States was strong because the United States had the largest unified market in the world. If other countries wanted to make money, they had to sell their goods to the United States, so the standards of the United States naturally spread to the world.

But now a larger market is forming in the east. I believe that in another ten years, we will be asking for rabbits. The biggest mistake in America is probably thinking that rabbits are kind and easy to bully. Just like you think now."
