On the last day of October, Chen Dao had just sat down in Abwehr's office when he heard the secretary inform Ambassador Thomas that he wanted to see him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After a few words of greeting between the two, Ambassador Thomas couldn't wait to express his intentions: "General Rosen, our country's first loan has been paid, when will your country's expeditionary force depart?" ”

"Two divisions of the Marine Corps are ready and ready to leave for the United States." Chen Dao said.

"What about the other troops? When will the troops going to India, especially the Navy, be able to go to the Indian Ocean to replace the British Royal Navy. ”

"It's going to take a while, you know, it's winter, and we're planning to take the Crimean Peninsula before the cold sets in." Chen Dao stood up as he spoke, pointed to the map on the wall, and said: "The Russians use the Crimean Peninsula as a base to bomb the Ploiesti oil fields in Romania, but it is only a major threat to the Axis powers, and this base must be eradicated." The German Navy also plans to send aircraft carrier formations to the Black Sea to suppress the actions of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. You know all of this. ”

"I know, it's just going to take a win?"

Chen Dao said in embarrassment: "The eastern front has now entered a muddy period, and the movement of the troops has been greatly hindered, and it will take at least a month and a half to do so. ”

"The situation in the Pacific can't wait for a month and a half, not even a month. I have a request if your country can cancel the operation against Crimea, or not involve the aircraft carrier group in the attack on Crimea, and leave for India as soon as possible. ”

Chen Dao scratched his head and said in embarrassment: "The war in the Pacific Ocean is not going well, I know this, but the threat of the Russian air base in Crimea is too great for us to ignore." However, I can try to convince the Führer not to involve the aircraft carrier group in the offensive. ”

Thomas was overjoyed: "That's great, but, how long will it take to get definite news?" ”

"Soon, the morning after tomorrow, you come here to find me, and I will reply to you."

Ambassador Thomas left happily, Chen Dao looked at his watch, it was already 8:30, and his face changed.

"Oops, almost missed a big thing."

Chen Dao got up, called Major Lorenz, and hurriedly got into the car.

Forty minutes later, the R&D department of Fanta Beverages, a subsidiary of the Soren Group.

Surrounded by a group of researchers in white coats, Chen Dao picked up the goblet on the table.

The manager of the R&D department picked up a coffee pot and poured a third of the drink into Chen Dao's glass.

Chen Dao raised his glass and first looked at the drink in the glass for a few seconds.

Colorless and transparent, full of tiny bubbles, at least from the outside, it is similar to what I confessed.

Chen Dao took a sip of the drink, held it in his mouth, and carefully felt the taste of the drink.

"Poof・・・・・・" Chen Dao spit the drink in his mouth into the basin on the table, and then poured the drink from the cup into the basin.

"It doesn't taste right, replace it with another one."

The R&D manager hurriedly picked up the coffee pot numbered 2 and poured a third of the cup for Chen Dao.

After more than ten seconds, Chen Dao spit out the drink in his mouth again.

"It doesn't taste right, next."

Three times in a row, until it was numbered No. 4, Chen Dao nodded and said, "It's a little close, replace the next one." ”

The R&D manager picks up the last coffee pot, numbered 5.

After carefully comparing the tastes of No. 4 and No. 5 drinks, Chen Dao pointed to No. 4 and said, "That's it, it will be produced and marketed immediately according to the recipe and the packaging bottle style I designed." ”

On October 31, 1942, under the personal guidance of Chen Dao, Fanta Beverage Company successfully developed a colorless transparent lemon-flavored carbonated drink.

Chen Dao personally designed the green bottle style of this drink, and gave the drink a very refreshing name.

Sprite!

When Fanta was preparing for the launch of new products, Chen Dao, as the chairman of Soren Group, actively ran among its subordinate enterprises.

In the afternoon of the same day, Chen Dao, accompanied by general manager Remtsma, summoned two CEOs of Adidas and Puma, both of the Soren Group.

Accompanied by the two CEOs, Chen Dao watched the finalized style of the new German military uniform.

There are a total of four new military uniforms, one is the improved jungle camouflage, and it is also the most used camouflage uniform, which is in four colors: green, brown, black and gray, which is used in the summer of the army;

The other three are desert camouflage with a yellowish color, which is used by troops stationed in desert areas;

Marine camouflage, in four colors: blue, black, grass green, and white, for the Marine Corps;

urban camouflage, in four colors of black, blue, gray and white, for the use of the Airborne Forces;

In addition to military uniforms, the two companies have developed new soft hats and military boots.

The soft hat of the German army in summer is a common sailing hat in European armies, and it is also a military hat that is extremely unaesthetic in Chen Dao's eyes.

Recalling the style of the German military hat in the movies he had seen in the past, Chen Dao took the pen and drew a new type of soft hat with a brim, and named it the 1943 soft hat.

Looking at the four sets of military uniforms on the mannequins, Remtsma said excitedly: "With these new military uniforms, the appearance of our army will increase by at least ten percent." ”

Chen Dao fiddled with one of the military boots in his hand, and said without raising his head: "The first impression is very important, if our troops want to fight abroad, they must be the first to take the lead, suppress our allies from the appearance, and make the young girls scream when they see our soldiers." ”

Chen Dao put down the military boots and said to the two company bosses: "In order to thank you for your hard work, I have decided to allow you to put your company's logo on the heel of the military boots you produce." The names of Adidas and Puma will spread around the world with the German army. ”

For one day, Chen Dao finalized the production of Sprite and new camouflage uniforms, and that night, Chen Dao and Remtsma hurried to Paris.

The next day, Chen Dao met with three company CEOs.

The three companies are:

Hermes started with the production of bags:

Chanel started as a perfume producer:

and Lancôme, which mainly produces cosmetics.

Since Germany defeated France, the three companies have been suppressed by unknown evil forces, and in just two years, they have entered the brink of bankruptcy.

At the critical moment, Chen Dao and Remtsma appeared as saviors, sending carbon to the three companies.

After the Solon Group bought 49 percent of the shares of the three companies, the three companies embarked on the road to resurrection.

With the fruits of witty investment in three world-famous brands, Chen Dao and Remtzma took the night bus back to Berlin.

On the morning of November 2, Chen Dao yawned and walked to his desk, and before his butt was hot, he heard a briefing from Ambassador Thomas asking to see him.

Without waiting for Ambassador Thomas to ask questions, Chen Dao said to Ambassador Thomas with a haggard face: "Mr. Ambassador, I have fulfilled my mission and persuaded the Führer to immediately send an aircraft carrier group to India to take over the Royal Navy. I'll take over the work at hand in the next few days and set off with the fleet. Please tell President Roosevelt to let General MacArthur hold on a little longer, and the turnaround will soon come. ”

"That's great, I'll reply to the country right away, when are you leaving? I'll send you. ”

"No later than the 10th, when the time comes, you'll see the news in the newspaper." Chen Dao said.
