The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

Seeing Liu Liyuan looking at him with a puzzled look, Dunneng explained.

"She is a foreigner like me. Although she has studied Chinese in China, I am not sure how good her level is. You can make her a supervisor in the advertising investment department! Let her be responsible for taking on some advertisements!"

With these novels in hand, Dunn is confident that his novel magazines will sell well in the future. Maybe he won't get any decent advertising in the early stages, but he can wait until the magazine becomes a hit.

Advertisers will surely come in droves, so this job is actually quite easy.

Moreover, some large companies in Hong Kong are basically controlled by the British, so having a foreigner who knows English to do this job also has natural advantages.

At worst, I can give this foreign girl an assistant.

"Okay! I just don't know what this person's abilities are like?"

Liu Liyuan said with some worry that novel magazine advertisements would definitely be an additional source of income in the future. This position seemed quite leisurely, but it was also a relatively important department if one lacked the ability.

It will certainly lead to a sharp drop in the revenue of fiction magazines.

"If you don't have the ability, just treat it as a decoration and just pay the salary every month!"

Dunn sighed helplessly.

"You can recruit someone for the position of deputy editor-in-chief on your own. I don't have anyone to recommend. This position is quite important. It will be your deputy in the future, so you must find someone you can trust! If Mr. Liu runs out of energy, it would be best if this person can quickly take over your position!"

What Dunn meant was very clear. He asked Liu Liyuan to prepare a successor in advance so that if anything happened to Liu Liyuan, this successor could quickly take his place.

Although Liu Liyuan originally did not plan to arrange too many of his own people in the novel magazine, it is not impossible to arrange one of his own people in this key position.

After discussing the next work arrangements, Dunn sent Liu Liyuan out.

There was nothing major happening in the following period, so they just stayed in the newspaper office and continued their work. To be honest, as the top leader, he didn't know much about the current work progress and some situations of the Xiangjiang Distribution.

This hands-off boss is really thorough, but most of the time it is not that Dunn is willing to be this hands-off boss, but that there are too many things to do.

But these few days have been a rare period of peace of mind.

Just a few days later, on May 5, another piece of bad news came.

Of course, this is bad news for Dunn's current position, but it is good news for China.

The Zhoushan Islands were recovered.

Suddenly, news came from Tokyo again, allowing Dunn to quickly investigate the mainland's next plan.

This also gave Dunn a headache, and he called Liu Liyuan again.

"Mr. Liu! You really can't let me have peace of mind! You didn't even tell me such important news!"

Liu Liyuan could only remain silent. He did know this news last time, but he really didn't want to tell Dunn.

Seeing that Liu Liyuan was too lazy to explain, Dunn was very happy.

So even if I was told, I would not report it to my superiors, but as an agent, I must have this cautious attitude.

"My superiors are asking me what's going on. I'll tell them that this should be your last move in the near future. There will be no other military actions for a while. Do you think this is okay?"

Dunn asked, half jokingly.

"There will definitely be no more military actions in the near future. I can assure you, Mr. Du!"

Liu Liyuan's face turned red, but he quickly adjusted himself. After all, he was also an old underground man.

"If you can recapture the isolated island in one fell swoop, I won't say anything!"

Dunn complained that he sincerely hoped that the mainland could quickly deal with the isolated island.

But he also knew that this problem could not be solved in a short period of time because the mainland's navy simply did not have the ability to do so.

If Dunn had been able to bring the three aircraft carriers of the mainland with him when he traveled through time, then the first island chain of the United States would never have been formed.

Unfortunately, this kind of thing can only be thought about in the mind.

After complaining to Liu Liyuan, Deng En was also complained by Feng Enshuo.

However, Feng En said that he did not insist on it this time, because the Zhoushan Islands were an isolated island and the government took the initiative to give up and gradually withdrew the troops from the local area.

To put it bluntly, this was the choice of the isolated island government itself, which made Dunn feel relieved and he immediately had an idea of ​​how to report to the higher authorities.

"Have your military forces become so depleted? Have you even started to withdraw troops from the surrounding islands?"

Dunn pretended to be surprised and tried to see if he could get more information out of Feng Enshuo.

It would be best if the isolated island side could withdraw its troops from the Diaoyu Islands. However, considering the location of the Diaoyu Islands, I'm afraid this possibility is not great.

"Although I don't know the specific situation, the Zhoushan Islands are too close to the mainland, but too far away from us. It is difficult to station troops there and ensure logistics, so we gave up!"

"Are you going to give up the other coastal islands of Zhejiang Province as well?"

Dunn asked again tentatively. He knew that many islands actually had to wait until after the Peninsula War, just like Yijiangshan Island that Dunn had just learned about.

"I don't know the details, but it seems that there is no plan yet. We may not give up those islands that are closer to the isolated island for the time being!"

Dunn knew that the mainland certainly wanted to conquer these islands, but the Peninsula War would break out in a little over a month, and the mainland would be too busy to do anything else by then. It would be a blessing to be able to recover the Zhoushan Islands.

If we want to take back other islands along the coast of Zhejiang, I am afraid we will not be able to do so in the future, not to mention the Diaoyu Island in the northeast of the isolated island.

"Stop talking about this!"

Since everyone had a basic understanding of the matter, Dunn did not discuss the topic in depth.

"How's the situation at the food factory?"

"The new equipment is on the way. We are currently researching the technology for compressing military rations that you mentioned. I believe that the finished product will be available in less than a month!"

Speaking of this, Feng Enshuo immediately became interested.

"In fact, the finished product has been made, but the taste is not satisfactory. We are trying to improve the taste. If these things are supplied to the South Korean army, it will not work. But if they are supplied to your American army, it will be a big problem. You know, your soldiers..."

Having said this, Feng Enshuo felt a little embarrassed to continue.

After all, criticizing someone else's army in front of them seems a bit suicidal.

"A bit delicate, isn't it?"

Deng En had no choice but to speak up for Feng Enshuo.

"You don't need to be too shy about this. I admit that our soldiers are young masters! But at the same time, our soldiers are also capable of fighting!"

This is not Dunn making excuses for the U.S. military, but the U.S. military at that time had just fought in World War II.

It can be said to be the most powerful era. In the future United States, although the army has been fighting wars all the time, since the advancement of technology, the chances of human-to-human combat have become smaller and smaller.

Moreover, the United States's military's national combat effectiveness also needs to be fought, which is a big question mark. It can be said that there are really not many opportunities to fight a real tough battle.

Although the United States' army will suffer heavy losses at the hands of the Chinese volunteers on the battlefield of the peninsula in the future, it must be admitted that the United States has also helped the Chinese army to make a lot of progress, and this progress has also come at the price of blood.

"We must find a way to improve the taste as soon as possible! I don't plan to do business with the South Korean army. I will focus on doing business with the US army!"

The reason for not doing business with South Korea is that Dunn does not want to have to deal with the South Korean government over funds in the future.

South Korea today can be said to be even poorer than the mainland, and even the country's electricity is actually controlled by the North.

In this case, if we supply them with goods, we would probably do it as charity, but we don't want to let those South Korean guys get them for free.

On the contrary, thanks to his brother's relationship, the funds from the US military should not be in arrears, and even if they are in arrears, they should be able to get them back.

"It will be quick. Since the corresponding finished product has been made, it shouldn't be that difficult to just improve the taste."

Feng Enshuo is also very confident about this.

In fact, Dunn also told Fang Enshuo and his cousin Tang Wenxing some of the principles of the later self-heating pot. This idea surprised the two of them. After doing a little experiment, they found that it was indeed feasible, so they immediately invested in research and development.

This thing actually has no technical difficulty. Basically, it is made of quicklime and some additives, made into a self-heating bag, and then filled with water to cook.

Now that the principle of heating rice has been experimented, the next step is the finished product. Tang Wenxing is originally in the food industry, so he quickly came up with a plan. Although Dun En was not there at the time, Feng Enshuo witnessed the whole process.

The problem was solved quickly and the finished product came out soon, except for improving the taste.

"I will go back to the United States in a few days to meet my relative. You can give me some finished products and I will definitely take them over. If the taste is still not good by then, it doesn't matter. As long as my relative can see the finished products, it will be fine!

But if the taste problem can be solved at the same time, that would be the best! ”

"I will go back to the island tomorrow to urge my cousin!"

Feng Enshuo nodded. This was related to their financial future, so Feng Enshuo didn't dare to be careless at all.

"As soon as possible!"

Dunn nodded in response.

But he knew that time waits for no one and the war on the peninsula was about to come.
