Chapter 607 Xiao Peng's revenge
"Mr. Xiao, I don't have anything else to say but thank you. Nelson said from the bottom of his heart.
"No need to say any kind words, we are partners, besides, I am just helping you by the way, the most important thing is that I want to take this breath, okay Don't talk about it first, you can watch the excitement these days, and contact Wharton Fishery in three days." After speaking, Xiao Peng hung up the phone directly.
It is not for nothing that Nelson expressed his gratitude to Xiao Peng.
But Nelson was also worried in his heart, not knowing how Xiao Peng would retaliate against Kanter, he was more afraid that Xiao Peng would hit the entire Wharton fishery. After all, it involves one's own property. But after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely. Although Xiao Peng is a good fish farmer, he probably does not have the ability to crack down on the huge Wharton Fishery, right? After all, Wharton Fishery is also a large fishing company that is internationally renowned, and its main market is in North America, not Asia.
But he really underestimated Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng directly asked Huang He to find someone, bought all the products of Kante Fishery, sent them for testing, and took out the inspection report, Xiao Peng pondered for a moment, and called Yang Meng directly, asking him to catch a sailfish in the fishing ground, and let people send it to Shanghai as soon as possible. Directly asked Feng Jianting to process and package, Feng Jianting didn't know what Xiao Peng was going to do, but he still did it.
After Xiao Peng did all this, he found Qian Congcong and asked Qian Congcong to do him a small favor.
It's just a small favor! It's just that he posted a Weibo: Wharton Fishery of Maple Leaf Country participated in a fishery exhibition in China and sold swordfish with excessive mercury content, is this an attempt to create another Minamata disease incident in China?
The people who pay the most attention to Qian Congcong's Weibo will never be the people who eat melons, but the major media. Seeing Qian Congcong's Weibo, everyone was stunned for a moment, Qian Congcong didn't tear up the entertainment industry, how did he tear up the fish seller? What is the Minamata disease? What is the mercury content exceeding?
The national media was stunned when they saw Qian Congcong's Weibo, and it is understandable that the mercury content exceeds the standard, mercury is mercury, and it is the temperature indicated in the thermometer, which is a highly toxic heavy metal with strong volatility. Mercury is almost always present in marine organisms, and the larger the animal, the more mercury is contained in the body, which is introduced into the body through the penetration of the skin and gills of marine organisms, or through the consumption of mercury-containing food.
Minamata disease is also the poisoning of organic mercury, and the patient has abnormal hand-foot coordination, and even difficulty walking, mental retardation, hearing and speech impairment, and in severe cases, mental disorder, and finally death. What's even more frightening is that pregnant women can also bring this mercury poisoning to their young children, making them naturally mentally retarded.
What attracted attention to Minamata disease was the Minamata disease incident that occurred in Minamata Bay in 1956.
Minamata Town, a small town in the eastern part of Minamata Bay, is a thriving town in the eastern part of Minamata Bay, surrounded by the Kyushu mainland and the Amakusa Islands, and the main fishing grounds for local fishermen.
However, the Wakoku Nitrogen Fertilizer Company produces vinyl chloride here and discharges untreated wastewater into Minamata Bay. In 1956, a strange disease was discovered near Minamata Bay, which first appeared in cats and was called 'cat chorea'. Sick cats with unsteady gait, convulsions, paralysis, and even jumping into the sea to die are called 'suicide cats'. Soon after, humans with the disease appeared in the area, with symptoms similar to those of cats. At that time, the cause of this disease was unknown, and this strange disease was called "Minamata disease", and it was also the world's first public nuisance disease caused by pollution from industrial wastewater.
In the production of vinyl chloride, mercury-containing catalysts are used. As a result, the wastewater discharged into the 'Shiranui Sea' contains a large amount of mercury, which is converted to methylmercury when consumed by aquatic animals, and a small amount of methylmercury can kill people, and the amount of methylmercury in Minamata Bay is enough to poison the entire population of Wakuni twice due to the perennial sewage discharge. And the locals of Minamata Bay are the most direct victims.
In 1956, it was confirmed that the sewage of the Wakuni Nitrogen Fertilizer Company was the main culprit of Minamata disease, but in 1968, the Wakuni Nitrogen Fertilizer Company stopped discharging sewage, and continued to discharge unscrupulously for 12 years! To this day, the protracted court lawsuit filed by Minamata Disease because of Minamata disease is still not over! After all, in Minamata alone, there were more than 10,000 victims. This shows how much impact this pollution time had.
Now the media are going crazy, Wharton Fishery sells swordfish meat in China with excessive mercury content? Isn't this poisoning the Chinese people? After being harmed by Sudan dyes, melamine, gutter oil, and other incidents, what are the Chinese people most serious about? Naturally, food safety is the thing! As long as it is related to food safety, a small matter will become a big thing. So on the second day of the fish show, Wharton Fisheries was surrounded by media reporters.
Kante wants to cry without tears, what is the mercury content exceeding the standard. It's true that there is mercury in the swordfish meat, but whose sailfish does not contain mercury? Large marine organisms all contain mercury, and if you look at the Japanese people, they are tuna, sailfish, dolphins, and whales, which of these does not contain mercury? But how many of them have Minamata disease? It's all within the standard, right?
Kante desperately explained popular science in front of the media, what the mercury content in his own sailfish meat is absolutely within a reasonable range, which is already very low, and why Qian Congcong should be held accountable for defamation and so on. As everyone knows, someone directly took out two test reports and handed them to the media. When the media took a look, one was the quality inspection report of the sailfish of Wharton Fishery, and the other was the quality inspection report of the Qianliyan swordfish. As soon as the two were compared, the media directly found the gap between the two, didn't Kanter say that their mercury content was very low? Why is the mercury content in the meat of the Qianliyan sailfish less than 1/10,000 of yours?
Well, even if the mercury content of the swordfish in the Wharton fishery is up to standard, it is difficult to argue.
For a time, all the major headlines of the Chinese media were contracted by Wharton Fishery.
"The mercury content of the sailfish sold by the Wharton Fishery in Canada is 10,000 times that of the Chinese swordfish!"
Wharton Fisheries: Do You Want to Bring Minamata Disease to China?"
Wharton Fisheries: This Mercury Content Is Unscientific!
"Qian Congcong discovered the huge conspiracy of Western countries!"
"Relevant experts: there is a problem with the Qianliyan seafood used for comparison, and the mercury content of sailfish cannot be so low"
"Relevant departments intervene in the investigation of excessive mercury content in Wharton fish"
"The masses smashed an expert's private house angrily: how much money did you charge to wash the floor for crooked nuts?"
"The Secret of Low Mercury in Thousand Miles Swordfish"
All in all, in just one day, Wharton Fishery has directly opened its popularity in China, but it is a pity that it is a negative image. Kante is going crazy, the ups and downs of life in the past two days are too fast, it's really unacceptable. Now he is beginning to doubt his life, wondering if he has a nightmare, how can a good fishery exhibition become like this?
Kante was in the hotel, and after venting hard, he calmed down with a glass of red wine: "This damn Xiao Peng! You want to trap me, right? Huaxia is your home field, and you make such a big deal of it." But you think I can't do it?"
Kanter's female secretary was pouring him a drink in a sexy nightgown: "Boss, do you know? But boss, we're so passive, is there anything else you can do?"
Kanter sneered: "This is not very simple? The mercury content of the swordfish in their fishing industry in the four seas cannot be so low! They must have falsified the data! As soon as we announced this matter in the media of the Stars and Stripes and the Maple Leaf Country, we said that Huaxia had adopted such inferior means in order to crack down on foreign enterprises, and directly set up an image of a victim for us. You know, the issue of trade with China has always been the key point of attack on China by the Maple Leaf Country and the Stars and Stripes Country, and it is just the right time to use the topic to push the matter to the national level, and the Wharton Fishery, as the victim, will definitely gain greater popularity! What a good publicity opportunity is this?"
The female secretary smiled after hearing this, leaned lightly on Kante's body, and caressed Kante's chest with one hand: "Boss, your confident appearance makes me crazy, I can't hold myself anymore, and I want to be crazy with you." β
Kanter looked down at the female secretary: "You abrasive little goblin." β
The female secretary listened to Kante's words, smiled slightly, slowly lowered her body, squatted in front of Kante, and bowed her head togetherγγγγγγ
As soon as the day dawned, the rapid mobile phone ringtone rang, Kanter opened his eyes and looked at the room full of messes, this was the battlefield after yesterday's fierce battle, and then looked at the female secretary sleeping on the side, Kanter sighed: "You are really a clingy little goblin, if you go on like this, you have to suck it dry." β
Kanter yawned and stretched, then picked up the phone, and when he saw that it was the number of Maple Leaf Country, Kante picked up the phone directly: "Hey, who? Don't you know what time it is?" Kante obviously got up and was angry.
"What the hell are you doing in Huaxia?" came an angry roar on the other side of the phone.
When Kantor heard this, he sat up directly from the bed: "Father, why are you calling me? is there something?"
"What's the matter? I'm going to see what my good son has done! If I don't care about it, it's a question of whether the Wharton fishery can exist!" old Wharton roared.
Kante was confused: "Father, what the hell is going on?"
"What's going on? Wharton Fisheries is about to be ruined in your hands! What the hell have you done in Huaxia?" snarled old Wharton.
