The passionate years starting from the college entrance examination

Chapter 338, Self-destruction of the city wall (please vote for me)
Today, there is a huge flow of people here, and agents from all over the world are all gathered here.

Some people come to pick up goods, some come to attend new product launches, and some simply come to learn more.

When Iyama Riko came to Hong Kong Island, she did not plan to attend the new product launch conference, but took the time to bring the purchased products back to Tokyo.

Some time ago, the low-price strategy announced by China Resources was really very exciting.

Although the price is low, it means that the profits of agents are greatly reduced.

But those big agents look down on these small businesses, but that doesn't mean ordinary agents like Iyama Riko don't look down on them either.

On the contrary, Iyama Riko knew that low prices were her opportunity.

The strategy of small profits but quick turnover is one of the most commonly used strategies in many classic business wars.

The market in Tokyo is so big. If she can enter the market with more low-priced electronic products, she will be able to sell more products.

Therefore, the low-price strategy announced by China Resources has attracted a large number of ordinary agents like Jingshan Lizi.

Perhaps it is a bit reluctant to allow agents like Iyama Riko to participate in the fierce competition of new product launches.

But if you are purchasing these low-priced electronic products, there is absolutely no problem.

After Riko Iyama completed the payment settlement with the Bank of China staff, she took the note given by the other party to China Resources Company and got the receipt.

After having the receipt, she went to the dock, and then found the transportation company she had contacted in advance and asked the other party to help arrange the transshipment of the goods and send them to Tokyo.

The prices of many electronic products, such as electronic watches, Huashuo computers, calculators, game consoles, etc., have dropped a lot.

The emergence of the low-price strategy has benefited many ordinary consumers, but for other businesses around the world, this is a huge disaster.

In the director's office of the Zhenhua Research Institute, Chen Guohua was shocked when he heard that Huashuo Computers had shipped 3.58 million units in a very short period of time.

Priced at $9 each for three, they smell really good.

The shipment volume is as high as 3.5 million units, which also means that China Resources’ revenue in this wave is as high as 3.2 billion US dollars.

This is definitely a very scary thing.

As for products such as electronic watches, the prices are too low, and the shipment volume is in the tens of millions, but the revenue is still much less after all.

Even so, it is China Resources' blood profit.

Of course, the production capacity of most electronics factories in the mainland has been completely released.

Take the Majuqiao Industrial Park as an example. The electronic products they produce here have reached dozens to millions of pieces every day.

The entire Majuqiao Industrial Park has developed towards a satellite city with a population of one million. Its rapid development is absolutely unprecedented.

Various undertakings are in full swing in the Mainland, and it seems that they will always be so smooth.

For China Resources, the new product launch conference in September ended quickly.

There are not many new products this time, but there are almost no shocking products. It can be said that they are all advanced versions and third- and fourth-generation products.

For example, the third generation of Huashuo Computer. Compared with the first and second generations, the third generation of Huashuo Computer has upgraded many functions.

For example, the computer has three built-in games: Minesweeper, Solitaire, and Ping Pong. These three games are full of entertainment attributes but are different from other game consoles.

In addition, office software for table drawing has also been added, which can be said to be a very advanced computer.

There is also Huaxing digital SLR camera, which also has a more advanced version, which is more convenient for consumers to use, and the price is also more friendly.

Although it's just fried rice, the agents are still very happy. After all, these technologies are quite advanced, and there is no such thing as squeezing out toothpaste in this era.

Anyway, these products produced by China Resources are very sincere.

It's just that there are indeed no new products that are very disruptive to the market, such as PHS and pagers.

Just after China Resources' new product launch conference, Hubert Humphrey, the new North American monitor, suddenly restarted the economic blockade.

This news came out from Washington, and it caused an uproar immediately. Many people couldn't understand why they wanted to destroy the city wall?

Seattle, Washington.

Richard Milhouse is canvassing for votes here, actively promoting his campaign themes and strategies with local capital and institutions.

Although there is still some time before next year's general election, he must plan early instead of waiting for others to be ready before he starts preparations.

"Richard, something big happened!"

Charles Agard opened the door and walked in. There were only three people in the room, Richard Milhouse, William Saffir, and Henry Curtis.

Hearing the former's extremely serious words, Richard Milhouse and the other three were slightly startled, curiously asking each other to tell what was going on.

"Just now, I learned a piece of news from Washington. Hubert Humphrey is going to impose an economic blockade on the East!"

hiss!
As soon as these words came out, Richard Milhouse and the three of them suddenly took a breath of cold air. Soon, after Richard Milhouse reacted, he yelled:

"Fake, shit, bastard, what is in his mind? Damn it, how can he restart the economic blockade strategy again? Doesn't he know that our companies are now inseparable from the East?"

"God, how can such a person sit in that position? He will only lead our country into the abyss."

Richard Milhouse, who had vented his anger, not only did not sink into despair, on the contrary, he quickly reacted and immediately booked a flight to the central agricultural production area to find Archer Daniels Midland Company, Bunge Company and Cargill. Four major North American grain giants.

Just because of the economic blockade, these food giants, ore giants, etc. are affected.

As for why he didn't go to Hubert Humphrey, that's because Richard Milhouse knew himself, and the former would never summon him.

Even if they met, Hubert Humphrey would definitely not listen to his Richard Milhouse advice.

Therefore, instead of humiliating oneself, it is better to "leverage one's strength" and use the forces of capital to achieve his goals.

In short, using food as a weapon is one of Richard Milhouse's established campaign strategies, which cannot be changed.

Therefore, the order issued by Hubert Humphrey this time is really disappointing.

After meeting with Richard Milhouse, many capitals quickly agreed with the latter's statement, so they took the initiative to put pressure on Hubert Humphrey through their own connections.

In Washington, Hubert Humphrey couldn't help but frown as he listened to his subordinates' reports on the relevant situation.

As the original deputy monitor, Hubert Humphrey was no stranger to the job of monitor.

But when he became the squad leader, he realized that he had to be busy with too many things and was under a lot of pressure. During this time, he had a lot more gray hair and his hair loss became more serious.

Especially those companies that had close ties with China Resources or Dongfang, all of them resisted and even held public demonstrations.

It’s simply outrageous to open the door for outrageous things. It’s so outrageous.

Are all capitals in North America that awesome?

Do they all have so much trade with the East?

But so what?
The East today is too powerful. Compared with a few years ago, the East today is no longer the same.

In this context, if we do not impose an economic blockade, how can we curb the development of the East?
As for pushing the East completely towards Moscow, in Hubert Humphrey's view, this is simply impossible.

Everyone puts the interests of their respective countries first. If this is the case, then there is no possibility that the East will cooperate with Moscow.

Just because the industries operated by China Resources are almost all in Europe, America, Tokyo, and Southeast Asia, not in Moscow.

Based on this, once the economic blockade policy is implemented, the East will face more crises.

The attack launched by Richard Milhouse, although it caused some trouble for Hubert Humphrey, was very limited.

To say who least hopes for the rise of China Resources, there is no doubt that Hadrow Wilson must be on the list.

Therefore, when Hubert Humphrey's policy came down, Hadrow Wilson was the first to express his support. The title of the number one loser in North America will never be taken off.

In Moscow, Brezhnev also quickly learned the relevant information. This news was not a surprise to him, but it was an accident.

"Dog bites dog, I like to watch this kind of drama the most, haha"

Brezhnev just wants to see how the East responds to this matter. After all, when the economic blockade policy is restarted, it is inevitable that the country will cry out, and the pain is also certain.

How the East overcomes this crisis has become a test, attracting global attention.

But Chen Guohua's overall view, his endless strategies, and his control of the global situation forced leaders like Qiu Zongyue and others to pay attention to his suggestions.

Therefore, it is actually very simple to get through the difficulties.

Throughout the meeting, Chen Guohua did not fail to speak, but he had few opportunities.

Leaders have already been mentally prepared, and after brainstorming, they come up with many very effective countermeasures.

In less than half an hour, the meeting was over.

It was really unexpected that the small meeting could end so quickly.

But there is nothing to say, so a quick decision without wasting everyone's time is the wisest choice.

"Wow, is this your fighter jet? Isn't it too powerful? It's incredible."

Haizhou City Monkey Li Zhiming looked at the two futuristic sci-fi fighter jets at the airport runway with envy in his eyes and his mouth watering.

"Haha, you are indeed lucky to be able to see our country's aircraft."

Many weapons, food and other supplies were transferred to Haizhou City through Bailongwei Island. At the same time, some wounded were also taken to Bailongwei Island for transfer treatment.

In fact, the entire Bailongwei Island only covers an area of ​​2.5 square kilometers, which is a very, very small island.

Although the area is small, its status is important.

"Yes, I am so lucky to be able to see such an advanced fighter jet in my life. Unfortunately, our country does not have such a fighter jet."

Li Zhiming was filled with emotion and his eyes were full of regret.

Hearing this, Deng Jiazhi laughed secretly in his heart.

In a place as small as Haizhou City, do you still want to own a JY-9 fighter jet?
Just want to eat shit!
Deng Jiazhi didn't bother to comfort the other party because of the whimsical dreams.

At this time, Gong Jicai, Chu Guangliang, Pan Qianjin and Guan Xiuyu, who got off the fighter jet, met Zhao Shanxiang, the person in charge of Bailongwei Island, and informed him of the relevant details of the mission.

In fact, if Gong Jicai and the others didn't tell them, Zhao Shanxiang had already received the relevant tasks.

He was angry and angry, and the consequences were serious.

It stands to reason that he has been the deputy squad leader for many years and is over fifty years old. He is no longer an irritable young man, but he can't help his temper.

Just because Dongfang did go too far this time.

To put it mildly, it was just to celebrate the National Day. That was Dongfang's own internal matter, and outsiders had nothing to say.

But at this juncture, and they are still conducting exercises near the waters of Bailongwei Island, isn't this just for the North American soldiers in Haizhou City to see.

Good guy, those are many J-9 fighter jets. If they pass over the heads of the soldiers at three times the speed of supersonic speed, I'm afraid something big will happen.

Although there is no need to use any sonic boom to attack the ground, as long as the soldiers can see and feel it, it will be a huge confidence impact.

So, no need to ask, this is for Hubert Humphrey's economic blockade policy.

Hubert Humphrey was so angry that he could not wait to give the order now and crush the East to ashes.

However, it's useless to be angry now. Think about how to deal with it.

"No company should dare to cooperate with China Resources now, right?"

After taking a few deep breaths, Hubert Humphrey looked at Lundberg and Brewster, hoping that they could bring him good news.

The latter didn't say a word, and Lundberg was speechless. The good guy asked him to report again. Didn't he let him bear all the firepower?

Excessive!

"Mr. Humphrey, according to the information we have received so far, no company dares to cooperate with China Resources anymore."

As soon as these words came out, Hubert Humphrey, who was aware of everything, immediately frowned:
"On the surface?"

This tone is full of doubts and dissatisfaction. Doesn't this deceive him into thinking he is a fool?
"Yes, on the surface, no one is cooperating with China Resources, but in fact, there are still many companies and individuals who are cooperating with China Resources."

Lundberg said bravely.

It is said that Hubert Humphrey, who rose to power halfway through his reign, had no prestige at all.

Therefore, Hubert can only prove himself in other ways and prove that this monitor is not in vain.

Therefore, Lundberg and others were a little afraid of Hubert Humphrey, fearing that the latter would suddenly lose his temper and fire them, which would be difficult.

Although everyone knows that they will not be able to hold this position for long, but if there is a chance, who wouldn't want to sit for a while?

Next year is an election year, and Hubert Humphrey will definitely need the support of people like Lundberg.

However, in fact, Hubert Humphrey's support rate is not high. Whether there can be a qualitative change depends on how Hubert uses his position as squad leader to get more resources in the next year or so. , to improve his status.

In short, it is very contradictory now. There are many things that Hubert needs to deal with, but he just chose the most difficult path.

That is to go and provoke Dongfang.

You can mess with it, but it has no effect, and it has also angered many capitalists in North America.

Fortunately, now, the prestige and strength that China Resources has accumulated over the past few years have allowed many companies to directly obey the economic blockade order from Washington.

Yes, that's what they did. They didn't want to offend Hubert Humphrey at all.

Frazier Rickson, the president of Texas Instruments, is one of them. Although Lyndon Johnson is also a Texan, Hubert Humphrey and Lyndon Johnson have a very good relationship. From this point of view, Frazier should support Huber. Special talent is right. However, Fraser was not willing to support the other party.

Just because the other party suddenly announced the economic blockade policy, Texas Instruments fell into a life-and-death situation. Fraser wanted to find someone to kill Hubert.

why?
As one of the well-known computer industry giants in North America, Texas Instruments is not weak.

However, over the years, Texas Instruments has been suppressed and beaten by China Resources and cannot stand up at all.

It was even worse some time ago. China Resources announced a low price, which almost made Fraser angry and left.

Under the low-price announcement, China Resources' profits have decreased, but its revenue will not decrease much, and may even increase a lot.

The world is such a big market, with monthly shipments in the tens of millions and hundreds of millions. Even if the price is only a few dozen dollars, it is still a pretty good income.

Take a handheld game console as an example. The unit price has dropped to a retail price of only thirty-nine US dollars. Then there are many consumers around the world who can afford such a game console.

Even many middle school and high school students can find ways to afford it.

Taking North America as an example, many high school students can work summer jobs at fast food restaurants such as KFC and McDonald's. After a month or two, they can earn at least one to two hundred US dollars.

So a handheld game console that only costs thirty-nine dollars is certainly affordable.

These are all things that are very beneficial to China Resources, but for companies like Texas Instruments that also want to rely on imitation or innovation of other electronic products, it is a fatal injury.

However, in order to survive, they have to continue to be agents of China Resources Company and represent each other's products to survive.

It just so happened that at this time, Hubert Humphrey, the temporary squad leader, did not prepare for next year's general election, so he had to make a big move and cut into the arteries of Texas Instruments. This would put people like Frazier at risk. Annoyed.

So how could Fraser have a good look on Hubert? Not to mention supporting the other party, unless Frasier is dead, it is impossible!

Whether it is Texas Instruments, IBM, or many companies such as Donald Duck Technology, they are all companies that have many cooperation or connections with China Resources. Naturally, they are not happy to see that China Resources' products cannot leave Hong Kong Island.

Naturally, they will find ways to transport China Resources' products out of Hong Kong Island through their own channels.

In the past few years, Raymond had the experience of clearing out the inventory of China Resources Company and making a lot of money. Therefore, whether it is Comrade Tang Dake or Frazer Rickson, they will not let anyone else pick it up. Cheap.

With everyone tacitly understanding it, it is only natural that Hubert’s economic blockade policy would be followed in both covert and covert ways.

There is a saying in China that there are policies from above and countermeasures from below.

Therefore, no matter what Hubert Humphrey does, it will not harm Comrade Tang Dake, Frazer Rickson, Raymond and others.

Bang!
Hearing Lundberg's words, Hubert Humphrey suddenly became even more angry, and this time he kicked the chair in front of him.

In his rage, his strength became so great that the chair could not bear the heavy blow and fell to the ground with a violent collision.

Lundberg, who was the first to bear the brunt, was immediately startled and took a step back without saying a word.

Brewster, Dean Rusk, Douglas Dillon, Jimmie Malu and others in the room were all silent.

Although Hubert Humphrey had just taken office not long ago, his temper became increasingly changeable and he got angry at every turn. His previous modest and gentlemanly demeanor had long since disappeared.

The skill of nourishing qi has completely disappeared, and it is even more impossible to express emotions and anger.

Because of this, everyone is afraid that Hubert will really follow in the footsteps of Lyndon Johnson.

Irritable people are prone to getting into trouble.

"Give me a list and I will take care of them."

After taking a deep breath, Hubert Humphrey said in a cold voice, and his tone was cold enough to know how angry he was at this time.

Lundberg suddenly fell silent. Damn, if you really do this, you will really destroy the wall.

Jimmy Temaru couldn't help but persuade him:

"Hubert, I think we sea lions should take it easy first, if this causes..."

Before he could say the words "rebellion and separation", Hubert glared at him with a sharp look, and Jimmy Temaru immediately swallowed all the words he said and said no more.

It can only be said that Hubert is not very powerful, but he has a great temper.

A person who has been a deputy for a long time suddenly becomes a full-time official, covering the sky with one hand. Of course, he will no longer listen to the suggestions of others.

What's more, Hubert knows very well that the shelf life of his squad leader is currently only more than one year, so within the limited time, he must first realize his ideals and ambitions.

As for next year’s general election, let’s talk about it then.

Lyndon Johnson was halfway there, but he was re-elected anyway.

So Hubert Humphrey is not very worried that he will not be re-elected. As long as he can prove his strength, it will be very difficult for other candidates to replace him.

No matter how bad it is, he will have served as the squad leader for more than a year from now until January of the year after next, and his life can be considered complete.

"Lundberg, I will leave this matter to you. You must submit the list as soon as possible."

After a pause, Hubert said coldly:

"These economic blockade measures against China Resources are my first big move after taking office, so you all must implement them properly. I don't want this policy to be in vain due to your inaction."

For Lundberg and the others, this warning is just a big thunder and little rain, and has little effect.

No matter how awesome Hubert is, he can't go to Hong Kong Island to check it out in person, right?
As for the China Resources products that Hubert saw in Washington and other places, it would be right to say that they were products left over from before.

Lundberg and others all know one thing very well, if they offend some capitalists, that’s okay.

But if all capitalists are offended, it will undoubtedly dig its own grave.

And Hubert Humphrey's behavior at this time is so stupid, he is digging his own grave without realizing it.

So, internal strife began.

In California, Richard Milhouse knew the information about Washington right away. After all, he had worked in Washington for many years and had been the deputy squad leader for eight years. His connections there were very strong.

After learning that Hubert wanted to go his own way, Richard Milhouse contacted several congressmen and prepared to join forces with other congressmen to put pressure on Hubert.

Other capitals are also taking action, especially those whose interests have been damaged, and are even more proactive.

And those capitals that had little to do with the situation couldn't help but add insult to injury.

As long as they can undermine the prestige of the squad leader, these capitalists will definitely be happy.

In the era of big squad leaders and small capital, capitalists would naturally be very happy if the squad leader's prestige could be reduced.

For capital, they all hope to have a very obedient monitor so that they can make more profits.

Rather than a squad leader who always causes trouble for them and poops and pees on their heads all day long.

With the intervention of many capitals such as the Morgan Consortium, the California Consortium, and the Mellon Consortium, many "like-minded" congressmen joined forces to launch a fierce attack on Hubert at the meeting.

Although these impacts did not pose much of a threat to Hubert, they were too much for him to deal with.

In short, for now, the economic blockade caused by Hubert Humphrey will definitely not pass so quickly.

In fact, this is no longer news, but the statement jointly signed and issued by nearly two hundred mathematicians in the Moscow mathematics community still caused a sensation in the global mathematics community and the press.

Perhaps to ordinary people, this is not news at all.

After all, this matter had been reported earlier, especially at the report meeting held in Beijing in September. At that time, many media and newspapers had reported this news.

But this is the first time for such large-scale signature recognition from industry insiders.

And from publishing the paper at the end of last year, to holding a report meeting in September this year, and now issuing a statement in October, it took just over ten months, which is really very fast.

The report of this joint statement represents the reputation of the Moscow mathematics community to a certain extent.

That's why its influence is so great.

After Chen Guohua saw this statement, he smiled and praised Moscow, finally doing something humane.

Brezhnev, the polar bear, has not done anything obviously targeted in the past year or two. He is probably recharging his energy or holding back some serious moves, right?
Since Brezhnev did not take the initiative to cause trouble, Chen Guohua was naturally very happy.

After this statement, other places such as North America and Europe also issued statements.

For a time, the mathematical problem of Riemann's hypothesis completely turned into the Riemann-Chen Guohua theorem.

While the press was clamoring for praise for Chen Guohua's wonderful contributions and efforts in the field of mathematics, mathematicians in Moscow and other places were summoned to work with physicists to improve relevant theories.

Their thoughts are simple, that is, they cannot be left behind too much by the East.

On Di'anmen Street, Xiang Liqiang looked at the information at hand and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

It wasn't until he came to Qiu Zongyue's office that he felt a little more energetic.

"Lao Qiu, come here, let me show you, is this outrageous?"

Qiu Zongyue glanced at Xiang Liqiang strangely, took the information, and after reading it, asked with surprise:

"Is this information true? Are you saying that in the West, including Moscow and Washington, they are actively improving quantum mechanics and other related theoretical research, just so as not to be left too behind by us in the East?"

It’s simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
In the past several hundred years of modern history, although the East was still the center of the world and one of the few major countries in the world, its scientific and technological power was greatly outstripped by the West.

Especially after the Opium War, the scientific community in the East almost disappeared, and the East has been catching up with the West.

Now, it's the other way around. The Western scientific community is actually taking the initiative to catch up with the East?

And in the field of pure theoretical frontier science, the West’s goal is not to be left too behind by the East.

This, when did Dongfang become so powerful? How come he, Qiu Zongyue, didn't know?
Therefore, after Qiu Zongyue saw this information, his first reaction was that he couldn't believe it.

"of course it's true!"

Xiang Liqiang glared and said dissatisfied:
"This intelligence is information that our people obtained through multiple decryptions and with great difficulty. But you are questioning it. If the intelligence personnel below know about it, I'm afraid I will be heartbroken to death."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Zongyue quickly said:
"No, I'm not doubting the authenticity of the information, but this information is really incredible."

"What I want to say is, do they in the West really think this and do this?"

Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Xiang Liqiang rolled his eyes and said:

"Since you don't know, I'd better ask Comrade Guohua. Telling you these things is like playing the piano to an ox."

After that, he snatched the information from the other party, then turned and left.

"Lao Xiang, don't leave." Qiu Zongyue chased him out, but Xiang Liqiang didn't want to talk to him.

Zhenhua Research Institute, Battery Laboratory, Chen Guohua is researching new drone technology with Qi Rongzhi and others.

The new model of war in the future will inevitably involve the participation of drones. It can even be said that drones are the mainstream, and the most critical technology among drones is actually battery technology.

When intercontinental missiles and other state-defending weapons cannot be used, drones will mainly perform intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, strike and electronic warfare and other related tasks in future wars, and can be said to play a vital and key role.

It can also be said to be the most important weapon in future wars.

"There are many key technologies for drones. I have always emphasized the body structure design, body materials, radio communication remote control, wireless image return, automatic driving and obstacle avoidance, flight control, avionics system, etc."

“All these technologies can be continuously improved and improved.”

Looking at Qi Rongzhi and others, Chen Guohua smiled and said seriously.

In fact, these techniques are already repeated, he has said it many times.

However, Qi Rongzhi and the others seemed not to fully realize what they were doing.

Take the avionics system as an example. This part includes high-efficiency batteries, motors, and ESCs to provide power and support for the drone.

The high-efficiency battery part is well understood. UAVs need to take off, have better flight speeds, longer ranges, etc. These all require a very good battery to better support them.

The same is true for motors, and the same is true for ESCs.

In a war, if a drone of the same size and weight can fly farther, be lighter and more agile, it will undoubtedly have a greater chance of winning.

Doesn't Chen Guohua think that only his own side can use drones? What if the enemy's drone technology is even more powerful?

Therefore, how to maintain higher technical support, and have better autonomous driving, obstacle avoidance technology, flight control technology and other related drone technologies will have a greater chance of winning the war.

"Director Chen, the leader is here to see you."

Not long after Chen Guohua finished speaking, the door was outsourced, and Ge Shouzhi came over to deliver the message.

Knowing that the leader was looking for him, Chen Guohua said to Qi Rongzhi and others:

"Okay, you guys should think about it carefully for yourselves. I'll come back to you in a few days to check on these techniques."

Returning to the director's office, Chen Guohua saw the two leaders Qiu Zongyue and Xiang Liqiang in the room.

It is indeed a bit rare for these two leaders to come to him together.

However, Chen Guohua was very familiar with them, so he was not too polite and directly asked the leader about his purpose.

As soon as he finished asking, Xiang Liqiang handed over a piece of information, and the words on it surprised Chen Guohua.

Hey, these people in the West are quite prescient.

But what's the use?
If a theory could be perfected so easily, it wouldn't be called cutting-edge technology.

PS: There are no monthly votes in the past two days. Dear readers, can you show your support and vote for a monthly vote? Kneel down and thank you!
