Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

"Mr. President, this unfavorable situation cannot be allowed to continue. If we do not intervene, the share of island country products in the United States will become smaller and smaller."

"The U.S. government has imposed trade restrictions on us, and China has jumped out to cause trouble behind us. As one gains, the other loses. Our products will completely lose the trust of the American people."

Conference room of Sony Group’s US branch.

Upon receiving the news, the current president of the group, Jiro Noda, who rushed to the branch office in person to deal with the mess, looked livid.

He suppressed his anger and listened to the reports from his subordinates.

The unfavorable situation of commodity sales in the United States is more serious than what Jiro Noda knew.

Sony Group obtained a large amount of important business intelligence through bribery and other shady means.

Joseph, the vice president of Best Buy Group and the purchasing director, is the general manager of an electrical appliance company, which is actually a puppet product of the cooperation between Best Buy Group and Longguo.

All the products the company sells to Best Buy are OEM products from Longguo.

The company imported a large number of finished household appliances from Longguo under the pretext of purchasing some production parts from Longguo.

Transported to domestic factories in the United States and given a simple makeover.

These are obviously domestically produced household appliances, but after coming out of American factories, they have been transformed into American products.

"Mr. President, we should expose this matter to the media. Best Buy Group can use such shameless methods to gain commercial benefits and to please Longguo. They don't deserve to be called businessmen at all."

"Sony Group's exported products are suffering from unfair treatment. We absolutely cannot tolerate this. We will sue Best Buy Group for unfair competition!!!"

"Sir, if you give the order, I will contact a large number of reporters to publicly expose this evil act! It is obvious that they purchased finished home appliances from Longguo, but Best Buy Group and Joseph's company said that they purchased spare parts from Longguo. It is simply shameless!!!"

Hearing his subordinates denouncing Best Buy Group and Longguo at the same time, Jiro Noda felt extremely annoyed.

He knew very well that the other party was extremely shameless.

But even though it knows about this, Sony Group cannot make this matter public directly.

Not to mention, the American capital community has already shown extreme dissatisfaction with the island country.

Even if the truth is revealed to the media, the capital community will suppress the matter.

If things go wrong, it may lead to a head-on conflict between Sony Group and Best Buy Group.

Best Buy Group has a large number of partners. If the island country companies sue them, other American companies will definitely get involved.

A piece of stone that adds insult to injury to Sony Group.

"Start a price war! Lower the price of our products to a level cheaper than Best Buy Group's products."

After the words fell, everyone looked at Noda Jiro in disbelief.

Noda Jiro said coldly: "You heard it right. We are going to engage in a price war with Best Buy Group and a large number of American companies. Profits will be passed on to consumers. Selling products suitable for consumers at low prices has always been the core of Best Buy Group's development."

"Since we are going to fight back, we should attack them from their most core position!"

"We would rather lose money than let our products lose the trust of the American people. Once the products of our island countries are abandoned, the result will be devastating."

Noda Jiro said gloomily.

"Without my order, no one is allowed to leak the truth to the media, otherwise, I will personally teach him a lesson."

Upon hearing this, a senior executive of the branch company said in astonishment: "Mr. President, why can't we reveal the truth to the media? We are very experienced in spreading rumors, no, propaganda, and I promise that we will never bring disaster upon ourselves."

"It's useless... All the commonly used strategies are useless in the face of the national interests of the United States."

Noda Jiro sighed and said with a distressed look: "You can see the current international situation even without me telling you."

"Compared to us, Longguo's importance to the West is gradually increasing. Although Longguo is backward, they have a huge army and a large number of geographical locations bordering the Soviet Union."

"As long as the threat from the Soviet Union exists, the United States will not show any hostility towards Longguo."

Nothing exists in isolation, especially in the business world, where a product affects the employment of a large number of people and is related to countless upstream and downstream industries.

The international influence of the country to which the goods belong will affect whether the goods can sell well in the international market.

Why does the United States tolerate the invasion of goods from island countries?

It has to do with the special relationship between the island country and the United States.

After the defeat, the island nation completely surrendered to the United States, not only allowing the United States to station a large number of troops, but also following the will of the United States.

No matter what the United States asks the island country to do, the island country will obey obediently.

However, the situation today is different from the past. The threat from the Soviet Union has reached an unprecedented level.

The Soviet Union’s military threat is affecting the United States’ lifeline: oil.

Under such circumstances, the importance of Dragon Kingdom has become unprecedentedly high.

In order to suppress the Soviet Union and disperse its military pressure, it is necessary to bring Longguo together to attack the Soviet Union.

This is something that island countries lack.

As the head of Sony Group, Jiro Noda knows very well that sometimes consumers' ideas are very simple. They will choose whoever has cheaper products or better products.

I don't care where the product is made.

Whether or not a product is produced in the United States is actually not that important to the American people.

After the meeting, Jiro Noda came to the floor-to-ceiling window in front.

He looked solemnly at a store not far away.

As luck would have it, a boutique electronics chain store of Best Buy Group was located not far from the branch.

Standing upstairs, you can directly see the booming sales scene ahead.

There was a long queue in front of the boutique electrical appliance store.

The Americans queuing up are all American elites.

They dress very elegantly and have stronger purchasing power than average.

There are some things that ordinary people cannot understand. Don’t the elites understand them either?

There was an indescribable look of distress on Noda Jiro's face.

At this stage, the Dragon Country is far more important to the United States than the island country.

With the new president taking office, the United States will inevitably completely change its previous defensive posture.

From defending the Soviet Union to actively attacking.

Step by step, the blood of the Soviet Union was drained.

The Dragon Kingdom has two bombs, one satellite, and an army of over one million.

In order to guard against possible attacks from the Soviet Union, a large number of weapons and equipment were manufactured over a period of more than ten years.

These are what the United States needs.

Once Longguo stops cooperating with the United States, the Soviet Union will have no worries.

All the millions of troops stationed around Longguo were transferred to the western front.

Everything must serve the United States’ international strategy.

Against this backdrop, Sony Group attacked Best Buy and Longguo.

The first to jump out and refute must be the US official...
