Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

Chapter 270: The Great Drama of is about to begin

April 1964, Qingming Festival.

On this day, Zhao Mancang stayed at home and accompanied his children to worship their ancestors and celebrate the festival.

Although he does not recognize Zhao Zhensheng as his father, his surname is Zhao after all, so he still needs to pay homage to his ancestors during the Qingming Festival.

At the end of last month, Lin Wan successfully gave birth to a daughter, who was named Zhao Siyu by Zhao Mancang, and her nickname is Xiao Siyu.

After his daughter was born safely, Zhao Mancang wanted to take Lin Wan for sterilization, but she noticed it and sternly refused.

"It's not like we can't afford to raise a child. If we're lucky enough to get pregnant again, we'll give birth to the child. If not, forget it. I won't get a sterilization anyway, and you're not allowed to be a eunuch."

When Zhao Mancang heard Lin Wan's words, his eyes went dark, but he didn't argue with her anymore.

After the Qingming Festival, Lin Kewei, the leader of the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building, personally came to Guozi Lane to chat with Zhao Mancang and ask for advice.

"Mancang, although you're much younger than me, you're more intelligent. Could you please help us figure out what other good products our Fifth Machine Industry Department can produce that your Jiaolong Foreign Trade Company can sell more quickly?"

Since September last year, the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building was separated from the Second Ministry of Machine Building and has been mainly responsible for the weapons industry, that is, the state-owned factories that produce most of the common weapons.

Before the separation, Jiaolong Foreign Trade Company had already cooperated with the arsenal that produced the Type 53 rifle.

No one expected that selling bulletproof vests together with rifles and cavalry rifles would be so effective.

Some people watched eagerly, while others had already taken action. Lin Kewei's idea was simpler: to strengthen cooperative relations and sell those "moldy" weapons of the University of Tokyo to the world.

"Boss, you're really flattering me. I don't know everything, but I remember there are a lot of 'moldy' weapons piled up in the warehouses of several arsenals. Can you show them to me? I might actually have a solution."

When Lin Kewei heard this, he was shocked. There was not much inventory in the warehouse of the state-owned arsenal, let alone mold.

Given Zhao Mancang's position, it is unlikely that he doesn't know these things, but if he knows, why does he still say this?
"Mancang, what on earth are you talking about? I don't quite understand. Why don't you tell me directly?"

"Leader, please go and take a look at the warehouses of those state-owned arsenals. There must be a lot of 'moldy weapons'. You will know if you go and inspect them, I believe."

Hearing what Zhao Mancang said, Lin Kewei's expression suddenly became serious and he hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Zhao Mancang was stunned. Why did he run away so suddenly?

Don't you want to chat? Let's have a good chat. If those weapons don't get moldy, how can he sell them?

Those previous international brand weapons such as the Type 38 rifle had become "moldy". These products had been replaced by the Type 53 rifle, Type 56 rifle and other guns anyway. After all, it was now 1964.

At the University of Tokyo, these trophies from World War II or previous wars have no other value except for their commemorative value. Instead of piling them up in warehouses, it would be better to sell them to African warlords and pirates.

However, before Zhao Mancang could say anything, Lin Kewei ran away, which made him very puzzled.

On the other hand, after leaving Guozi Lane, Lin Kewei angrily ran to various state-owned arsenals for surprise inspections, but found nothing.

There are no big problems, but there are definitely a lot of small problems.

After all, all the major state-owned arsenals produce according to plan, but some units are always afraid that they will not be able to complete their tasks by the end of the year, so they act on their own initiative and produce more.

For example, according to the plan this year, 300,000 Type 56 rifles should be produced, and 150,000 should be produced in the first half of the year. However, as of early April, 140,000 have been produced, which is more than half.

There are also some minor issues, etc. These may seem like big problems, but in fact they will have some impact.

However, the problem Lin Kewei was looking for was not these, but the mountains of "moldy weapons" in the warehouse. Unfortunately, he did not find them.

So after several days, he returned to Guozi Lane, found Zhao Mancang, and began to question him:

"Comrade Zhao Mancang, can you explain to me what 'moldy weapons' mean? I've been bothering the state-owned arsenals over the past few days, but I haven't found any of the 'moldy weapons' you mentioned in their warehouses. Could you explain this to me?"

This misunderstanding is really helpless.

Zhao Mancang spread his hands helplessly and said, "Boss, you didn't even give me a chance to explain that day. You just ran away in a hurry. You're too impatient. Being decisive and resolute is a good thing, but..."

"Okay, it's my fault for not explaining it clearly. The so-called moldy weapons are actually those International brand weapons we confiscated before. Aren't they now retired and replaced by the Type 53 and Type 56?"

Lin Kewei suddenly realized what was going on and scolded, "Why didn't you say so earlier? You had to talk about moldy weapons. Why not just say it was these International brand junk?"

Are those weapons garbage?

Of course not. They were heroes before. If our ancestors had not relied on these rifles, they would not have been able to achieve the great victory.

Of course, Lin Kewei has the qualifications to say this, but Zhao Mancang does not.

"But those rubbish are just junk. How can we sell them for money? Even if we could, it wouldn't fetch much. How about you talk about other products and see if we can produce them?"

After hearing what the other party said, Zhao Mancang declined politely. Dongda didn't have any high-end weapons, and low-end weapons couldn't be sold for much money. It was better to wait.

Now is not the best time to sell arms. The peak period of Monkey Peninsula is almost over, and the rest will have to wait until after the 1970s and 1980s.

However, Africa, the Middle East, and South America have always been in chaos.

The chaos in South America has little to do with the University of Tokyo, because that is Sam's backyard. If you go there at this time, you will easily be targeted by Sam's intelligence agency.

"Okay, since you said those moldy weapons can be sold, then we believe you and hope you can really sell them."

After being fooled by Zhao Mancang, Lin Kewei immediately nodded in agreement.

However, there are millions of rifles from different countries, including the Type 1903 rifle, the Zhongzheng rifle, the Mosin-Nagant rifle, the Springfield M rifle, etc.

"Leader, with so many rifles, how many bullets are left?"

"Bullets? How many do you want?"

Zhao Mancang heard this and said, "For example, a Type 38 rifle, each with 200 rounds of ammunition, how about that?"

hiss!
Lin Kewei took a breath of cold air. So many bullets?
Assuming there are 100,000 Type 38 rifles, and each gun is equipped with 200 rounds, then there will be 20 million bullets. What do you want to do with so many bullets?

"No? If not, then there must be a hundred rounds, right?"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Kewei stared at Zhao Mancang and said, "No problem, 200 rounds is 200 rounds, but Comrade Zhao Mancang, are you sure your Jiaolong Foreign Trade Company can really sell them? If they're left piled up in the warehouse, I might be fired, and you won't be able to escape responsibility either."

"Don't worry, leader. It's just a few million guns. There will definitely be no problem."

Zhao Mancang was still very confident about this, because Africa was very poor and many warlords did not have much money. For example, when he led Lu Yaowei and his second team to the Gulf of Aden to deal with the warlord Sinahud, they only got more than 50 million US dollars in property.

You have to know that the warlord pirate Sinahud has more than 3,000 guns under his command and occupies a very good position in the Gulf of Aden, but he only has more than 50 million.

In fact, more than 50 million US dollars is already a huge amount of money, but for a warlord with more than 3,000 people, it is really too little.

The whole of Africa and the Middle East were in chaos, and Ye Guangmin and Sun Zhonghan were selling these products there. The feedback they received was that bulletproof vests and Type 53 rifles were still too expensive. These poor people would rather spend less money to buy more second-hand guns, which would be more cost-effective.

In this case, it is not impossible to choose this trading method to make money.

So the deal was settled, and Ye Guangmin and his team had another task.

However, with so many guns entering the African and Middle Eastern markets, it will definitely have a certain impact on the entire market. Zhao Mancang thought about it carefully and finally decided to go to the Monkey Peninsula himself. This time, he would go to the northern part of the Monkey Peninsula.

While Lin Kewei was sorting out these "moldy weapons", Zhao Mancang was conducting a special assessment in the suburbs of Beijing.

Selecting five reserve members of the Jiaolong Army is also a very cautious matter. Zhao Mancang cannot be careless and must complete this task seriously.

After a week, the assessment was finally completed and five members of the Jiaolong Army reserve team were recruited.

Zhao Mancang added them in and then made adjustments to the three teams, but Zuo Changsheng and the others were not willing to retire.

"Lao Zuo, tell me how old you are. Do you still want to continue fighting on the front lines? Don't you consider your family's feelings?"

"Old Yuan, tell me about yourself. Old Zuo is the captain and a year younger than you. Even though you're a reserve, I know you can still run, but you're getting old after all."

"Lao Mi, you may not have been to the Shaya Laboratory area, but you must have heard of this place. Its importance to us is self-evident, so it doesn't matter if you don't admit it. You are really needed here now."

After finding Zuo Changsheng, Yuan Zuliang, Mi Shouyang and others, Zhao Mancang had a heart-to-heart talk with them.

As a soldier, the most important thing is to follow orders, but Zhao Mancang still respects the choice of Zuo Changsheng and others, so he hopes to convince them through this method.

Moreover, being the captain of a transport plane does not mean that there is no danger. The most crucial point is that none of the five of them have experience in transporting such a large transport plane. This is the biggest trouble.

"Old Zhao, we understand what you said, but the problem is, we are really not suitable."

Faced with Zhao Mancang's earnest persuasion, Mi Shouyang and others were helpless but found it difficult to refuse.

In the end, Zhao Mancang handed this matter over to Wei Huayong, asking him to help select five people to be responsible for this matter.

In less than half a day, Lu Guangyuan, Zuo Changsheng, Yuan Zuliang, Xi Wenrong and Zhou Zhengli were selected.

The captain of the first team was replaced by Zou Xinmin, and the deputy captain was Shen Gengnian. The three veterans Liu Sanshui, Mo Changzhi and Pan Chengdong were also forced to retire.

If the old ones don't retire, there is no way for new ones to take over, especially in a force like the Jiaolong Army, which places greater emphasis on the vitality of the team.

There was not much change in the second team, except that the old team member Mi Shouyang was withdrawn.

However, even if Mi Shouyang was withdrawn, he would still stay in the logistics team.

There is no change in the captain of the third team, Tie Wanzhong. The captain is still Tie Wanzhong, because Lao Tie is only 33 years old this year. Compared with Zuo Changsheng and others who are nearly 40 years old, Tie Wanzhong is still relatively young.

In this way, the adjusted Jiaolong Army will have more advantages.

The five people who retreated, Lu Guangyuan, Xi Wenrong, Zhou Zhengli, etc., were sent by Zhao Mancang to the Yumen Pass camp to serve as instructors.

The five of them recruited twenty pilots from other places. After the training is completed, they will select ten pilots from these twenty pilots and then form the transport force of the Jiaolong Army.

By then, the newly formed Jiaolong Army transportation department will not only transport supplies to the Shaya laboratory area, but will also, to some extent, have overlapping tasks with the three logistics teams of the Jiaolong Army, or be a supplement to the logistics teams.

why?
Because Yuan Zuliang and his transport team are driving transport planes, such as the Mario M6147 or C141 transport plane, and there will even be the C5 Galaxy transport plane later.

These transport aircraft all have one characteristic, that is, their cargo capacity is large enough. Even when the cargo capacity is halved, the range can still reach an ultra-long range of nearly 10,000 kilometers. Such a range is enough to reach many places around the world.

Assuming that Tie Wanzhong and his team need material support while carrying out their mission in the Middle East, Yuan Zuliang and his team can fly a plane there to deliver such goods over long distances.

If you take off from Shaya Laboratory Airport, the distance to the Middle East is only about four to five thousand kilometers, which is just enough for a round trip.

After all, the Jiaolong Army team doesn't need a lot of supplies, so there is no need to land locally.

Even if you need to land locally, you can ask Jiaolong Foreign Trade Company to contact the locals in advance to confirm whether the airport can land smoothly. This is enough.

However, Zhao Mancang's requirement for the transport team consisting of Zuo Changsheng, Yuan Zuliang, and Xi Wenrong is to carry out the task of transporting materials to the Shaya Laboratory. Especially in terms of confidentiality, they need to do their utmost to ensure that no secrets are leaked.

After finishing this matter, Zhao Mancang left the capital, and it was already April 20th.

Zhao Mancang stayed in Hong Kong Island for half a month, and during this time he handled the affairs there.

Many companies, including the Island Development Bank, Changda Group, Causeway Bay Motors Group, etc., need his attention as the big boss. Many key documents also need him to sign, and the general direction of corporate development also needs him to adjust and confirm.

In a few months or half a year, or even in one or two years, the development direction of the enterprise will not change much, because nowadays is not an era of major economic changes, so there is no need to change the development direction of the enterprise frequently.

But as the big boss, Zhao Mancang definitely needs to steer these companies well and ensure that they are all under his control.

Half a month later, Zhao Mancang went straight to the Monkey Peninsula and sold one million moldy International brand rifles and 200 million bullets to General Sakari and his fellow monkeys.

As we all know, in the Monkey Peninsula civil war, the number of people participating in the war in the southern region was more than 800,000, and in the northern region was about 700,000, totaling more than 1.6 million.

The loss of guns and ammunition is a very terrifying thing, but the guns provided by Zhao Mancang, which can be purchased for only fifty US dollars, are like a blessing from heaven for people like General Saka.

One million guns only cost 50 million US dollars, but the bullets can't be much cheaper, still one US dollar per bullet.

After all, whether it was the Type 38 rifle or the Mosin-Nagant rifle, these were the main firearms on the Korean Peninsula battlefield ten years ago. So these guns may not be very good, but they can't be said to have no lethality.

Two hundred million bullets, four million of which were given to General Sakari and his men, and the remaining $196 million was sold to them.

So, all together that's $246 million.

After selling these guns and ammunition, they exchanged them for 246 million US dollars worth of oil, copper and iron ore, gold, food and other materials.

The Monkey Peninsula's mineral resources are not particularly abundant, but they are definitely not scarce. Food is one of their most important resources.

As for Southeast Asia, it has a large population and a small per capita arable land area, so it needs to improve productivity or import large quantities of grain to ensure food for more than 700 million people.

Zhao Mancang brought these grains, minerals, oil and other materials back to the Kwai Chung Terminal warehouse in Hong Kong Island, and then arranged for a cargo ship to transfer them from the terminal to the Futian Airport Terminal for further transfer.

In Baiyun City, Zhao Mancang was annoyed last time because of Chen Zongzhu, causing him to never pass by there again.

After dealing with these things, Zhao Mancang did not stay for too long and went straight to Tuao. In Tuao, a sparsely populated place, Zhao Mancang took a gun and went hunting here.

It must be said that Australia's resources are really amazing. You can see a lot of prey just by raising your gun. Rabbits are rampant, and there are also kangaroos and so on.

"You farms need to do a good job of security and ensure our cattle and sheep are not disturbed. There are so many rabbits, we need to eliminate them in waves every once in a while."

While hunting for fun, Zhao Mancang gave instructions to the farm manager next to him.

He doesn't have many businesses in Australia, but he definitely has quite a few.

The Norinasun Group has subsidiaries including mining companies, seafood processing plants, ocean shipping companies, farm departments, Southern African mining branches, etc. It can be said to be a multinational giant enterprise.

Now, this group has made a profit of 137 million US dollars in just four months this year. Although it is not a lot, it is definitely not a small amount.

"Boss, the number of Chinese here is almost 200,000. Local officials often come to us and tell us not to be so high-profile. But it's unfair. We're not high-profile at all. We've always been low-key and steady. How could we possibly be high-profile?"

Liang Zhigen, the head of the Nolinasun Group, frowned and expressed his concern:

"They want us to hire some local white people, but we've already hired hundreds of white people for this job, and they're all lazy and demand exorbitant salaries."

"We don't mind the money, but the point is that they took the money and didn't do the job. That's really bullying."

Zhao Mancang heard this and pondered for a while before saying:
"Then fire them all. This issue may seem small, but it actually involves a lot of things. Mr. Liang, you must be careful when handling these matters."

"We need to build good relationships with local officials, keep a low profile, and control our Chinese employees, especially their families. We also have an airport here, so we must make use of it to strengthen exchanges between the two places. That way, as long as we pay enough taxes to them, those officials won't refuse to support us."

"As for those ordinary white people who want to cause trouble? Haha, just let them come. Let's see if I'm afraid of them."

After explaining everything to Liang Zhigen, Zhao Mancang did not stay in Australia any longer. After all, four days was already enough time.

This time he left Beijing with the approval and expectation of leaders such as Zhong Xiaodong and Lin Kewei. He came abroad to conduct research and find a smooth way to promote Dongda's furniture products.

So there is plenty of time and he doesn't need to worry so much.

Zhao Mancang came to southern Africa mainly to visit the branch of the Nolinasun Group here. After all, he doesn't come here often, so this time he must take advantage of the plenty of time to stay here for a while.

Fortunately, the situation here is pretty good and there aren't many troubles, so it's quite worry-free.

Xu Caixue and Sun Xiangshan, as the persons in charge here, have been working diligently. In addition, they have hired a number of retired soldiers from within the University of Tokyo as security personnel, so there is no need to worry too much about security issues.

However, last August, the Southern African branch of the Norinasun Group took away one percent of the shares of the Rand Central Gold Mine, causing many local warlords in Southern Africa to frequently cause trouble.

These warlords were all bewitched by the capital consortiums in Europe and the United States, such as Great Britain, Sam, the Kingdom of Cork, and Castile, so they did this.

After Zhao Mancang learned about this little incident, he asked Xu Caixue and the others to pay more attention to it, and just treat it as a training exercise.

In order to give these warlords something to do, Zhao Mancang even directly arranged for Ye Guangmin and Sun Zhonghan to sell International brand guns and ammunition to the hostile forces of these warlords at low prices, allowing them to attack these warlords and steal their hometowns.

Wars for resource grabbing often take place here, and there will definitely be no peace here for some time to come.

In fact, chaos has been the theme here since the discovery of the Rand Central gold mine, when southern Africa became the world's largest gold producer and exporter.

Who doesn’t want to own a gold mine?

The Rand Central Gold Mine holds the world's largest gold reserves, and gold is a global currency. Even the US dollar is on the gold standard. What else can the rest of the world do but follow suit?
So it is not new to come to southern Africa to grab shares of the Rand Central Gold Mine.

The cork kingdom Porto Mining Company was liquidated last year, and the company's 6.7% stake was divided up in an instant.

After receiving the instructions, Xu Caixue and the other person hurried to make arrangements, while Zhao Mancang delivered a batch of guns and ammunition to Ye Guangmin and his team's branch warehouse in southern Africa, and took away some funds.

After finishing the work, Zhao Mancang did not go to Sam's Club, but went straight to London, Great Britain, and found Rolls-Royce.

Rolls-Royce is a company he acquired in January this year. The role of this company overlaps to a certain extent with Mario's engine research and development center, but not completely.

In short, after the acquisition, there are many benefits for Zhao Mancang.

Mario Aviation still has a long way to go if it wants to reach the heights of Boeing or even surpass it. What's more, Airbus may be established in a few years, which is something Zhao Mancang cannot stop.

In that time and space in the future, Boeing and Airbus were fighting each other fiercely. However, in the entire civil aviation passenger aircraft market, the two of them divided the global market, and companies like Vickers Airlines became scraps.

After staying in London for a day and a half, Zhao Mancang left. Because Rolls-Royce did not have much business, he only needed to understand the situation. The other major directions and detailed management aspects could be left to professional management personnel.

With many aliases, he has long been particularly comfortable with such things. With multiple protections, he can control well both the companies he founded and the excellent companies he acquired.

This is mainly because he doesn't like to do things himself and is willing to delegate power to his subordinates. He is not worried about his subordinates rebelling or doing other things as a result. In a nutshell, he doesn't care much and is very bold.

In New York, in the headquarters office of Aucma, the two responsible persons, Donald Elliott and Benjamin Sharer, were reporting on their work. Their reports were very detailed, and it was not known whether they were afraid of Zhao Mancang or out of fear of something else.

"Well, then continue to develop in a low-key manner and don't consider external factors too much."

After listening, Zhao Mancang said lightly.

Due to the chaos in the New York Stock Exchange after the assassination of John Fitzgerald last year, Aucma made a lot of money, earning tens of millions of dollars in just a few days, making many Wall Street financial giants jealous.

At this point in time, US dollars are still very valuable, not to mention that this is more than 68 million US dollars, which is rounded up to 100 million US dollars.

Financial giants such as Citigroup, Chase Manhattan, Morgan Bank, and Morgan Stanley can be said to be gods standing on the highest clouds in the world. They are still staring at Aucma greedily. This is why Donald Elliott and others are afraid.

Behind these giants are the real chaebols who control the entire Sam. These people are not ordinary people. Killing people without blinking an eye and eating people without mercy is not just talk, but a real portrayal of their lives.

After comforting Donald Elliott and others, Zhao Mancang went to visit other companies such as Stratton and Mayflower Media Group as usual.

"Boss, the national circulation of our New York Times Post has successfully exceeded 100,000 copies last month. This is great news, and we will continue to work hard. Our next goal is to break 200,000 copies."

Randolph Daniel said excitedly:
"Not only that, many newspapers, such as The Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Daily News, and Silicon Valley Tech News, have also broken through the 50,000 and 80,000 circulation mark, and are not far from entering the 100,000 circulation club."

"The most important thing right now is Women's Health magazine. It's on every airline in the U.S. and in every major city in the country. It's everywhere."

"Currently, the circulation of each issue of Women's Health magazine in the United States has exceeded 680,000 copies. This means that my monthly revenue is $7 million. And this does not include advertising income."

As the former head of the New York branch of "Women's Health", Randolph Daniel successfully ascended to the position of head of Mayflower Media Group, which shows Zhao Mancang's trust in him.

It’s no wonder that Randolph Daniel is indeed a die-hard fan of Zhao Mancang. It’s not only because of Zhao Mancang’s trust in him, but also because of Zhao Mancang’s recognition and cultivation of his abilities, letting him go to fight for it, which has led to his current status.

So he cherishes everything he has now.

As a media group company, its current flagship publication is "Women's Health", while the development of newspaper media such as "The Wall Street Journal" is indeed very slow, probably because Sam's country is too divided and it is difficult to integrate cultures.

Therefore, if we want to catch up with the circulation of those real big newspapers, it will take time to settle down.

Zhao Mancang was not in a hurry. There was still a lot of time, so he could just take it slow.

After Randolph Daniel finished his work report, Zhao Mancang said with a smile:

"Now our Mayflower Group's development has almost reached a bottleneck. If we want to continue to grow, we can only do so from other aspects. In the next period of time, you can learn more about Hollywood. We will invest in the film market in a while."

Entering the film market was inevitable because it would soon be the 1970s and Hollywood movies would begin bombarding the world and carrying out cultural invasion.

At this time, if there was a film production company based on Chinese culture, it might be possible to carve out a path for Sam.

Bruce Lee should sign an acting contract with 20th Century Fox next year. Zhao Mancang believes that this is a good opportunity.

There are also many Chinese people working in the film industry here at Sam's, so Zhao Mancang is planning to set up a film production company focusing on Chinese culture. Although it may be difficult, who can say for sure?

"Okay, Boss, I will definitely complete the task." Randolph Daniel said excitedly when he heard this.

To be honest, he had wanted to enter the entertainment industry for a long time. Because of the relationship with the media group, especially the magazine "Women's Wear", Randolph Daniel often came into contact with the modeling and entertainment circles. He had long been drooling over those beautiful and famous movie stars.

Men are animals that often only think with their lower body. For example, a vulgar man like Randolph Daniel does not have much pursuit, and liking beautiful women is the biggest motivation in his life.

Zhao Mancang smiled and nodded, then went to other companies.

There are quite a few companies in New York, but most of them are financial companies, so managing the finances is enough.

Besides, most financial companies are just a few cats and dogs, not worth his time and energy.

From New York to San Francisco, and then to Los Angeles, Zhao Mancang inspected all the way and gave priority to solving the corporate management problems of his aliases at Sam's Club.

Mario Aerospace, an aviation engine research and development center, in Medford, Oregon.

This newly established R&D center was already full of talented people at this time. With his lavish spending of US dollars, he poached many talents from many airlines, including Boeing.

The fees Zhao Mancang paid to the headhunting company alone exceeded five million US dollars. You can imagine how many people he poached.

However, because of this, almost all the headhunting companies that he worked with were blacklisted by companies such as Boeing, and they all hated these headhunting companies.

Of course they hate the culprit even more: Zhao Mancang!

In fact, they did not know Zhao Mancang's name, but they were absolutely clear that the boss behind the new aviation engine R&D center was actually the boss of Mario Aviation.

No matter what, such troublemakers are like shit stirrers in a cesspool, making Boeing, Pratt & Whitney, Lockheed Martin and other companies extremely annoyed, but helpless.

After all, this thing relies entirely on US dollars, and Zhao Mancang has no shortage of US dollars.

It took about a week for Zhao Mancang to sort out the management issues of the R&D center, Mario Airlines, etc., and then he turned his attention to Wanjia Supermarket.

Wanjia Supermarket is a very critical enterprise for the next actions, so its development and progress are very important.

"Boss, we've already discussed this with the owner of Walmart, and they've accepted our acquisition plan. The Sam's Club is willing to take only 15% of the shares, and will sell the remaining shares to us."

Dogana Isulivan, the head of Wanjia Supermarket, reported respectfully.

Last year, Zhao Mancang said he wanted to acquire Walmart, otherwise he would send a team of lawyers to sue the other party and put it out of business.

Anyway, Wanjia Supermarket’s low-cost business model can only be operated by Wanjia Supermarket, and any imitators can only be acquired or leave the market.

In other words, Walmart Supermarket has just started, has not yet been noticed by capital, and has no other capital support. Otherwise, it might not be acquired by Wanjia Supermarket.

Although this was a very insignificant matter, Dogana Isulivan and others did not quite understand why Zhao Mancang would keep harping on such a small matter, but this did not prevent them from carrying out their boss's orders seriously.

"Okay, after the acquisition, Walmart's development will accelerate, but it can't completely follow our Wanjia Supermarket model."

After a pause, Zhao Mancang continued:

"Our Wanjia Supermarket is our foundation. Please don't put the cart before the horse. Wanjia Supermarket should speed up its store openings over the next year. By this time next year, I want to see a plan to enter the European market."

"In major cities like New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and Washington, we must start looking for larger supermarkets in communities with high traffic, with two floors, each with an area of ​​at least 3,000 square meters."

"In the future, our large supermarket model will be officially launched. The first floor will sell clothes, home appliances, furniture, bedding, etc., and the other floor will sell a large number of snacks, prepared food, soft drinks, etc."

"In short, all consumers who enter the store can buy everything their family needs for daily life, from small items like nail clippers to large items like sofas, beds, air conditioners, etc."

The model of Wanjia Supermarket has begun to undergo major changes. It used to be a small supermarket model, but now it is a large supermarket model. There is a big difference between the two.

With Wanjia Supermarket’s logistics centers across the United States already built, launching such a large supermarket model at this time is also a bold attempt.

It is also to prepare sales channels for the future production of cheaper air conditioners, televisions, refrigerators, washing machines and other home appliances by Dongda.

Distributing products in Wanjia supermarkets will be better than distributing them in other places.

However, Wal-Mart supermarket will also be launched, and this supermarket enterprise will also be adjusted and then filled with cheap products from Dongda.

"Okay, Boss, we will definitely complete the mission."

Dogana Isulivan and others were busy nodding. They would not and dared not refute Zhao Mancang's orders on business strategy, not only because he was the boss, but also because his strategy had never been wrong.

What's more, Zhao Mancang rarely takes the initiative to interfere in specific business affairs. Unless there is a problem and Dogana Isulivan and others' solution is not good, he will not take the initiative to ask.

Wanjia Supermarket and Walmart Supermarket followed suit and launched this strategy. Zhao Mancang then changed his identity and summoned all the senior executives of Target Supermarket, which he had just acquired last year, to a meeting.

Target Supermarket does not adopt a low-profit business strategy, but it also sells home appliances and furniture, and its business strategy will gradually converge with that of Wanjia Supermarket.

The reason why Zhao Mancang has so many distribution channels is to confuse people and not let them think that a certain brand of home appliances from Dongda is a product that they have never heard of, but only appears in Wanjia supermarkets and Walmart supermarkets.

At that time, Zhao Mancang will definitely give these home appliance brands some fashionable names, such as Haier, which would be a good name.
