Jiang Cheng was right. Pierre Dupont was indeed furious at this time.
Pierre Dupont was the real leader of the DuPont Company at this time. It was in his hands that DuPont completed a complete monopoly of the explosive chemical industry, and it was also in his hands that the business saying "Beware of DuPont's bombs" appeared (

And at this time, DuPont still had more than 1,400 secret armed forces, and in June of this year, it successfully married Franklin Roosevelt.
When he first discovered that the whole world was flooded with posters of Weihua's nylon stockings, he had not yet reacted. After all, nylon is still researching how to industrialize it on a large scale, and as far as he knows, DuPont has already become the world's largest manufacturer of nylon stockings.
We are at the forefront of nylon research. I really can't imagine that any company can develop nylon faster than DuPont. I always thought it was just the same spelling.
But when his mistress was wearing silk stockings in front of him, he caressed her thighs wearing silk stockings and felt a sense of enjoyment that he had never experienced before. But the more he touched her, the more she felt like she had known her before. Then he thought that it was not a coincidence in spelling.
, but this is really the nylon I am studying.
Dupont immediately returned to his laboratory with the stockings and asked those damn scientists to analyze them. It turned out that this was the nylon they had been studying so hard, and it was also mixed with other substances to make the nylon appear more elastic and smooth.
Dupont was almost furious when he thought about the popular scene of stockings and the green dollars that seemed to be leaving him with wings.
Thief!! It must be those damn yellow people who plagiarized their own invention.
As a white man, and a man who stands at the top of the white world, Dupont does not believe from the bottom of his heart that there are yellow people who can stand higher than white people in the scientific field.
These damn thieves, Dupont thought, they stole my nylons, they stole my stockings, damned, inexcusable.
After thinking about it, DuPont immediately made a phone call and said fiercely, "Come to my office, there are some monkeys who need to be taught a lesson." After the call, DuPont talked on the phone with several other consortium bosses, although DuPont was
One of the top ten consortiums, but after all, it is impossible to cover the sky with one hand. Some actions still need to be communicated with a few big bosses, but this time it only involves a Chinese company, and it has long been looked down upon by the American business community.
Weihua, Weihua's huge profits in the pharmaceutical industry have made many people jealous. It's just because they are life-saving drugs, and Weihua does act in accordance with American law, and Roosevelt has taken care of it, so it has not taken action. Now it actually takes action against DuPont.
Monopoly of chemical industry, then we will not be polite.
Dupont thought for a while and asked to see Roosevelt overnight.
At this time, Roosevelt was very different from a few months ago. In order to get himself re-elected as president in 1936, Roosevelt assumed the posture of "incarnation of justice" and "representative of the people" and opened fire on the DuPont family, the major arms manufacturer in the United States.
At the joint session of Congress, he delivered an impassioned speech: "We have established a new popular power institution within 34 months. In the hands of a people's government, this kind of power may create shackles for the people's freedom."
However, Roosevelt's counterattack soon stopped. Faced with a poor economy and a government that was about to collapse, Roosevelt had no choice but to succumb to the consortium once again and marry Dupont.
Dupont found Roosevelt, but saw that Mrs. Roosevelt was also wearing stockings. He couldn't help but become even more angry and said to Roosevelt, "Mr. Roosevelt, I want to teach a thief a lesson."
Roosevelt listened to Dupont's words with a gloomy face. He didn't say anything and just nodded. When Dupont left, Roosevelt slammed the things on the table to the ground.
Mrs. Roosevelt looked at him worriedly. Roosevelt took a deep breath and said, "I'm fine. It's just that they went too far. They discussed with a president to use dirty methods to deal with a company. What do they think of me as a president? A puppet?"
joke!!"
Jiang Cheng soon felt the power of the consortium. The newspapers that had been crying and begging Weihua stockings to advertise in their newspapers began to call one by one and decided not to allow the stockings advertisement to be published in the newspaper.
Because stockings are too immodest and inconsistent with the American spirit.
Jiang Cheng smiled slightly after receiving the report. Originally, this kind of hunger marketing was not the right way to last. In the past week, the reputation of stockings had been completely hyped. He immediately changed the sales strategy and ordered all branches to sell limited quantities on a first-come, first-served basis starting tomorrow.
And a poster was used to announce that the daily quantity was limited, and each person was limited to purchasing three pairs.
What? Three pairs, countless women’s eyes are red. Nowadays, a pair of silk stockings is hard to find. Unless you have a prominent family background and must be approved by Weihua Company before you can buy them at any time. In this way, it is not allowed to be a one-time purchase at most.
The ironclad rule for buying more than ten pairs.
The next day, all the stockings shops had long queues. Countless women who were at home and loved beauty came to queue early, but they were slowly replaced by gentlemen from all walks of life after hearing the news. They only saw countless loving eyes.
While communicating, I don’t know how many marriages have been achieved.
Jiang Cheng looked at this scene in a car and nodded and said to Situ Meitang next to him, "Thank you for your hard work, I didn't expect it to be so popular."
Situ Meitang laughed and said, "Who doesn't like making money, but our insider said that DuPont is already preparing to use their secret power."
Jiang Cheng looked at the crowd and said, "Aren't we already prepared? Come if he wants to come, and order all branches to burn all the stocks in case of emergency. I will make Dupont lose even one stocking."
arrive."
That night, various stockings stores in the United States were suddenly attacked. A group of people shouted slogans of the Ku Klux Klan to disperse the queues. They threw Molotov cocktails and even bombs into the stockings store. Miraculously, it was as if the entire American police were on vacation, and there was no one there.
Appear.
As for the main store in New York, Situ Meitang looked at the helpers scrubbing the floor outside and smiled gloomily.
But the stores that were attacked were suddenly like torches, and the fire was so powerful that the attackers looked at each other. When did their own Molotov cocktails become so powerful? After the fire was extinguished, there was nothing in the store except burning nylon.
pungent smell.
In this week, Jiang Cheng sold a total of more than 900,000 pairs of stockings in the United States, and more than 700,000 pairs were destroyed. The inventory in the United States was now less than 500,000 pairs.
The next day, the entire United States was flooded with news that all stocking stores had been destroyed. Jiang Cheng also received an invitation letter from DuPont.
To be precise, this invitation letter was for Zhang Ye and Situ Meitang. Jiang Cheng looked at it and smiled and said, "Dupont hopes that we will honestly hand over the craftsmanship of silk stockings, and he even said so brazenly that he would leave it to us.
I thanked him for 10% of the shares, but does he regard us as their subsidiary?"
Situ Meitang took out a note and said, "We killed all the thugs who came to attack our headquarters, and we also suffered more than a dozen casualties. They really had murderous intentions. Wouldn't this be too intense for us?
?”
Jiang Cheng sighed, "It's normal for people to die for money and birds to die for food. But don't worry, whether it's the other consortiums or Roosevelt, they may not be happy enough to see us beaten to death. Especially Roosevelt, he is probably eager for DuPont."
We have hit a nail here, so that he can take advantage of the opportunity to expand his power. Okay, Zhang Ye, you hold a press conference."
Jiang Cheng's guess was correct. After Roosevelt learned about these cases, he immediately ordered everyone not to pursue them. On the surface, it was to help Dupont, but in fact, Roosevelt discovered that Weihua, with the help of Situ Meitang, could actually withstand Dupont's attack. So,
You can use Weihua to attack DuPont. DuPont in the province really thinks that the Roosevelt family is afraid of them.
After being rejected by Wei Hua, Dupont even wanted to use secret force again, but was warned by Roosevelt. After all, the impact of such a thing was too bad.
The girls who were waiting patiently at the door of the store finally got the news, but the news was like a bolt from the blue to them.
Weihua Group issued a press conference and posted posters in cities across the United States, claiming that due to unfair treatment and violent attacks from hostile companies, the company decided to suspend the sales of nylon stockings in the United States until a safe investment environment in the United States was ensured.
Transfer all American shares to Europe and apologize to consumers who love stockings.
Countless girls were shocked. Although they guessed that sales would be affected due to the attack, they did not expect that sales would be stopped directly.
Countless scalpers are overjoyed, as the prices of the stockings they hoard are about to skyrocket.
Countless people who were ready to watch the show had their glasses shattered. They never expected that Weihua would be so cowardly and directly announced the launch of the US market. Some pharmaceutical companies couldn't help but wonder whether they should do something interesting to sell Weihua's penicillin.
and sulfonamides have also been driven out of the U.S. market.
And soon rumors swept among women across the United States that the bad guys who attacked Weihua were not the Ku Klux Klan, but the jealous DuPont Company, and then there was a large piece of DuPont's black material.
What happened next made everyone feel the terror of the people's power so deeply for the first time.
DuPont published an article the day after Weihua Company announced its withdrawal from the U.S. market, announcing that nylon was actually DuPont's invention, and that the shameless Weihua Company had plagiarized DuPont's invention. Silk stockings were also DuPont's upcoming flagship product.
The day after Weihua announced its withdrawal from the U.S. market, countless women got the news and gathered in front of the Weihua company building, holding slogans and banners that read "Stay", "We need stockings" and other words.
Weihua quickly responded and hung up several banners, writing, "If DuPont doesn't apologize for one day, Weihua's stockings won't return to the United States." "Let DuPont take out its own stockings."
When Weihua's statement was issued, DuPont had no choice but to respond by saying that it would launch stockings in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, who would believe that Weihua plagiarized the nylon stockings from DuPont? You don't even have anything, so how can you say that others plagiarized it? Weihua also
Immediately afterwards, a statement was issued requiring DuPont to produce its own stockings within a week, even samples. DuPont was forced to agree.
Oh! Well, most Americans know the name of DuPont and are looking forward to their new products. For a while, everything was calm, everyone was waiting for DuPont's silk stockings.
In fact, Dupont was completely helpless. Dupont had no idea that Wei Hua would act rogue like this and directly demanded that he also produce stockings or apologize.
Apologize? Are you kidding? Have you ever seen a man apologize to a monkey?
Although Dupont didn't care about reputation, even his mistress was asking him to help her get stockings, which gave him a headache, so he simply rolled out his own nylon stockings.
At this time, DuPont's nylon had been invented. To be precise, nylon was invented in 1935, but it has always been a laboratory product and cannot be produced in large-scale industrial production. Historically, this problem was not solved until September 1938. Now
I can only bite the bullet and deal with my semi-finished products.
Jiang Cheng smiled and said to Situ Meitang, "Let everyone carry guns at all times, try not to go out, and let people take the lead in purchasing on behalf of others. I believe that countless gangs are willing to do this business. I will leave for a while and wait for the final battle."
I’ll come back when the time comes.”
One week? I want to see how DuPont can solve the industrialization problem within one week.
The calendar at this time stopped on July 14, 1937. Jiang Cheng knew that the next period of time was all about waiting. Song Zheyuan's warlord mentality made it impossible for anyone to change his peace-seeking mentality. Only Japanese cannons could crush him.
sweet dream.
Jiang Cheng returned to modern times to prepare for a vacation. After all, after the Battle of Peking and Tianjin began, he would not be able to rest peacefully in modern times. He would take advantage of the last calm before the storm to take a rest.
Jiang Cheng asked Sun Ning to take a week's vacation with the whole company, while he and Yu Na prepared to travel to some places and return home by the way, because according to calculations, Jiang Cheng's short vacation would keep Sun Ning, Tyrannosaurus and others busy.
People are jumping up and down. Because Jiang Cheng purchased a large amount of Chinese enlightenment books and college textbooks some time ago, the senior officials of the National Security Bureau believed that the force behind Jiang Cheng should be a pro-China country or group, and Jiang Cheng did not do anything during this period.
Something that endangers the country caused the top national security officials to lower Jiang Cheng's threat level again and again, while raising his importance level again and again. The order given to Sun Ning also became to focus on surveillance and supplementary protection. After all,
Apart from Jiang Cheng, Guoan has not yet found a second relevant person.
When Jiang Cheng and blushing Yu Na returned home, Jiang Cheng's parents were very happy and greeted each other inside and outside. Jiang Cheng didn't want too many people to know that he was back, so he didn't go to any party.
, but relaxed his mood in the form of a family gathering. Seeing Yu Na timidly helping her mother cook, and chatting with her father about the recent news, Jiang Cheng felt a sense of talent.
It's the feeling of life.
In the building opposite Jiang Cheng, Sun Ning was holding a pineapple bun in his mouth and monitoring Jiang Cheng with a telescope. Seeing Jiang Cheng's family enjoying themselves, Sun Ning couldn't help but have a flash of envy in his eyes. It had been a long time since he had returned.
Where is it?
Not talking about Jiang Cheng’s daily life, our camera returns to North China in the Republic of China.
When he learned that Song Zheyuan actually signed an agreement with Japan, the Chiang Kai-shek agent in Lushan was furious. What did this mean? He ordered the 132nd Division and the 143rd Division to block his Central Army, but he actually went to negotiate peace with the Japanese. What exactly did Song Zheyuan do?
Should we defend North China for ourselves or for the Japanese?
Agent Chiang doesn't really want to start a fight with the Japanese now, but this situation is too embarrassing, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that the Japanese are definitely not prepared for peace talks at this time. So are the military vehicles coming and going on the highway?
Or are the snacks unlucky?
Jiang's agent immediately sent a message to Song Zheyuan, warning him again that the Japanese could not be trusted. The central government was now determined to fight the war with all its strength and would rather live in pieces than in ruins in order to preserve the country's integrity. He hoped that Song Zheyuan would obey the central government and not act alone.
Song Zheyuan took a look at it and said, "That's right." Song Zheyuan couldn't help but shudder when he thought about the various warlords during the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army. Instead of obeying Chiang Kai-shek's order, he simply sent a text message to the Japanese garrison headquarters, saying that he was willing to express his sincerity and that he would go right away.
Tianjin follows Japan's guidance.
Song Zheyuan did not know that Japan had decided to increase its troops and launch a large-scale attack. Instead, he was complacent that he relied on his tact and agility to successfully put out a war that was about to break out. His Northwest Army could
I have lived peacefully in this place for several years.
Song Zheyuan did not return to Peiping but went directly to Tianjin to prepare to meet with the commander of the Japanese garrison, Tashiro Anichiro.
When he arrived at the headquarters, he found that the entire headquarters was hung with white cloth. Song Zheyuan couldn't help but secretly asked in shock and found out that the original commander Amiichiro Tashiro had died of heart disease on the 14th due to heart disease, and Seiji Kozuki was the new commander.
Kozuki Kiyoshi didn't have a good look when he saw Song Zheyuan, but said that if the Empire of Japan wanted to believe in the sincerity of the 29th Army, then all the fortifications in Peiping must be dismantled.
Upon hearing this request, Zhang Zizhong, who came with him, wanted to jump up and refuse, but Song Zheyuan held him down.
At this time, Song Zheyuan understood that he had no way out. He had just rejected the order of Jiang Jie. If he offended the Japanese again, he would really be looking at himself in the mirror - he was no longer a human being inside and outside.
Song Zheyuan gritted his teeth and said, "We can dismantle the fortifications, but I hope your army can also show your sincerity for peace."
Xiang Yue Qingji was already fifty-six years old at this time. The polishing of time has made him no longer as impulsive as before. Now he can be said to be wily and calculating. He nodded and said with a smile, "The enemy of our imperial army is not you, China."
, but the Soviet Union, so don’t worry, as long as we control our respective troops, I believe we can still coexist peacefully for a long time."
Song Zheyuan was coaxed back to Peiping by Xiangyue Qingsi's sweet words, but when he arrived in Peiping, the Japanese army slapped Song Zheyuan hard in the face with the facts.
