The situation on the peninsula suddenly deteriorated, and war broke out suddenly.

The news appeared like lightning on the desks of all circles in the United States, and then it was broadcast in the newspapers.

That night, Henry Caesar and Mario Giannini, who were still nervous, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Is war good news?

Not for the general public, but for some the quite opposite.

Henry Caesar was one of the latter, and the most popular of them were those who sold airplanes, made gunpowder, and built warships.

These people are so powerful in the United States that they can collectively be called the military-industrial complex.

The Morgan and Rockefeller conglomerates have countless military-industrial enterprises under their umbrellas, and are naturally important members of the military-industrial complex, but the relationship between the two is not equivalent or subordinate.

As soon as the war broke out, the mouthpieces of the military-industrial complex began to become active, and someone entered the White House that night.

Since the end of World War II, the life of these military-industrial enterprises has not been easy (compared to before).

And Henry Morgan and David Rockefeller, who received the news, sighed in unison although they lived in different places.

"Henry Caesar's luck. ”

Why do you say that? Caesars Steel is not a military enterprise?

The reason is simple: for the sake of the upcoming war, the military-industrial complex, which is about to be, will start to produce vigorously again. And whether it is an airplane, a tank, or a warship-building enterprise, these all need a common material, that is, steel.

Without steel, these companies make a fart.

Because of World War II, California is now a major military state, and it is good at producing two weapons, one is aircraft and the other is warships.

Not to mention the former, the latter is a big steel consumer.

As California's largest steel company, Kaiser Steel is the number one supplier of steel for ships.

At a time when the military-industrial complex is going to resume production at full capacity, there must be no problems with the supply of materials, and everything has to be compromised for this.

And if Morgan and they don't let go, with Henry Caesar's control over Caesar's steel, they can definitely make this matter bigger, and Morgan will have to back down at that time.

In that case, it is better to stop now.

Some people have to ask, hasn't the Morgan consortium already infiltrated the military industrial complex in California, why not just use Caesars Steel's materials?

And doesn't the Morgan consortium have American Steel, the country's No. 1 steel company, in its hands, so why not use its own things?

Of course, this is not impossible, but as long as you know a little bit of accounting, you won't do it.

Because U.S. Steel is produced in Pennsylvania in the eastern part of the United States, and shipbuilding is located on the West Coast, the two are thousands of miles apart. If Morgan really did this, it would have been clear that it would cost me an unknown amount of shipping and time to do so.

And these are not necessarily spent.

Since a consortium is a consortium, its first purpose is to seek wealth, and it will never do such a completely unnecessary stupid thing.

……

June in California is like a furnace.

This can be used not only to describe the temperature, but also to describe the current folk atmosphere.

Of course, the Californians are so hot not because of the fleet of warships and convoys assembled in the harbor, nor because of the ongoing California gubernatorial election, but because of the California centennial.

That's right, the enthusiasm for the California gubernatorial election is not ordinarily low. It's not that they don't care who the next governor is, but the suspense is long gone — since incumbent Governor Earl Warren announced that he would run again.

Unlike the excitement of the gubernatorial election four years ago, when the Democrats also put forward a competitive candidate to compete with Earl Warren, this year the Democrats are very calm. In the primaries, Earl Warren won the qualification safely, needless to say, while the Democratic Party could not come up with a suitable candidate. This is because everyone knows that it is impossible to win Earl Warren, so those who are qualified are reluctant to run along, and those who are less qualified and want to show their faces to increase their popularity cannot pass the primary. In the end, the Democratic Party really had no choice but to send the last candidate, the current California Democratic Party bigwig, the son of the former president, James Roosevelt, to finally make the scene not too embarrassing.

As for the outcome, look at the effort James Roosevelt spent on the campaign — after the primaries in early June, the bigwig didn't go to the campaign office once because he was on vacation to Alaska.

……

California's centennial events are one after another, and they are very lively.

The White House and the nascent United Nations have been in a state of turmoil because of the situation on the peninsula.

East Asia was not the focus of the Truman administration, so it was caught off guard when the war broke out. Yet with the support of intelligence officials and friendly people with lobbyist status, the Truman administration set the tone for getting things done.

That is, the ongoing war on the peninsula is unjust, and the United States and the United Nations need to uphold justice for the victims, South Korea.

As a result, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 83.

So a White House team began preparing a new budget.

As a result, the owners of the military-industrial complex began to hold banquets everywhere, and parliamentarians were indispensable guests.

As a result, MacArthur, the emperor of the Emperor and the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Japan, began to loosen the ties on the Emperor.

Everything went in an orderly manner.

In August, more than a month after the outbreak of the war, the US Congress approved a request from the president and secretary of state to allocate $12 billion for military operations on the peninsula.

Some people were happy for a long time, and even the luxury of the banquet rose a little.

At this time, Evan moved out of his office in Inglewood and came to the city of Rosemead.

This is where his new company, Applied Semiconductors, is based.

The city of Rosemead is located in San Marino, a two-kilometre drive to the east-south. The reason why the new company was placed here was that it was close to San Marino's residence, so that he could not go out too early in the morning, so that he could have time and Audrey to be more crooked, and secondly, the cheap land in Rosemead made it easy for Evan to enclose a large piece of land.

However, although applied semiconductor companies occupy a large area of land, the office conditions are much worse than those of other companies. The company sign is just an ordinary two-story low building. The previous owner of the building was the Southern California Edison Electric Company.

By the way, this company is Rosmead's largest employer, and its main business is electricity and the production of lamps.

In addition to that building, construction is underway on the site where semiconductors are used, and the laboratory is under construction.

Although the building is shabby, the company's personnel are neat enough. In addition to the financial and administrative staff who keep the company running, the research team is also very strong.

Of course, on top of that, Evan will personally head the R&D team.
