0392 A product that was popular in World War II

When it comes to camel brand cigarettes, Wang Liang's thinking is opened, and he can't help but want to introduce some brands of the First and Second World Wars.

Wang Liang asked with a smile: "I'm afraid the Swiss Army Knife is a term that everyone is familiar with, right?" I believe that many military fans have collected a few. But do you know how this product became popular? ”

The Swiss Army Knife, as the name suggests, is a Swiss knife.

It also has another name, the universal knife.

This product is a folding knife that contains many of the tools of a Swiss army knife in one body, so named after the Swiss military equips soldiers with this type of tool knife.

The basic tools in Swiss Army knives are often ballpoint pens, toothpicks, scissors, flat-edged knives, can openers, screwdrivers, tweezers, etc.

"Because of the superior performance of the Swiss Army Knife, during World War II, the Swiss Army Knife was purchased in large quantities by the United States to supply the U.S. Army Consumer Co-op and the U.S. Navy and Air Force, and this product has since become world-renowned." Wang Liang introduced.

"I still have Swiss Army knives from the 34s at home, so I'll show them to you when I have time."

Wang Liang sighed: "The Swiss Army Knife now has many more functions than before, and some emerging electronic technologies have also been introduced into the Swiss Army Knife, such as LCD clock display, LED flashlight, USB memory disk for computers, lighters, and even MP3 players. ”

Speaking of this, Fan Jianguo's eyes were about to glow green.

He naturally set his sights on the Swiss Army knives from World War II in Wang Liang's mouth.

Of course, Wang Liang was happy to give his saber to the museum.

Because, Fan Jianguo once stated: "After my death, the museum will be donated to the country." ”

Wang Liang knew very well that what this kid said was definitely not an empty word.

He knew this big nephew of his too well.

For the sake of the museum, Fan Jianguo invested all his hard-earned money without leaving a penny.

More than a billion ah, if you say smash, you will smash it.

Look at Fan Jianguo's life again, the more simple it is.

This is definitely not acted, wearing clothes for dozens of yuan, smoking cigarettes for more than 20 yuan, and eating takeout for more than 10 yuan.

All he had left was a domineering, an Audi, and three properties that could be sold for collection at any time.

Drugs can make a person doomed.

Building a museum can make a business go to ruin.

On this basis, Wang Liang admires it very much.

Wang Liang said again: "Motorola, everyone should be familiar with this brand, right?" ”

It is one of the world's top 100 Fortune companies and a global leader in chip manufacturing and electronic communications.

In 2009, Motorola began to use the Android operating system, and several Motorola mobile phones became the best-selling products on the Android platform.

Once all the rage.

Who would have thought that this product would have been put into use in the last World War II.

"At the end of 1940, Motorola's predecessor, the Tall Darwin Manufacturing Company, produced a five-pound AM walkie-talkie with a communication distance of one mile, or 1.69 kilometers."

Later, the company developed a longer communication distance and better antistatic effect, and the figure of the American communications troops carrying this walkie-talkie has become a classic image of World War II. In the units of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, this walkie-talkie was also equipped. ”

Wang Liang seems to have opened the door to a new world for everyone: "There is another brand, which cannot be missed, and that is the Zippo lighter." ”

To a certain extent, Wang Liang connected two things that everyone thought were impossible to connect.

This is bound to collide with a lot of sparks.

"First of all, I'm not advertising for Zippo, it's really useful. In the smoke of World War II, in the storm, in the desert, wherever the soldiers need it, you can feel the excellent performance of ZIPPO. ”

Wang Liang gushed: "On a cold winter night in the north, when the fingers are almost completely numb, and when you can't even pull the trigger, it can be used to light the life-saving bonfire." ”

On the battlefield of that year, Zippo's superior performance was battle-tested.

Wang Liang can say without exaggeration that this thing has saved his life more than once.

"The hard shell of the ZIPPO can resist any material collision, and it is not uncommon for the Zippo to block bullets and save the lives of soldiers on the battlefield."

"The ZIPPO can stand up to any immersion, and even if it's completely soaked in water, its flame will still keep you satisfied. Because its powerful and safe flame comes from the special liquid fuel it uses. ”

"In any bad weather, it can be easily lit and even kept for a long time."

After saying this, Wang Liang even regretted it a little.

The Sino-US trade war is so loud that I have promoted Zippo, isn't it......

There should be an endorsement fee.

"It is because of its superior performance that ZIPPO has become a munitions commodity for the United States. When World War II broke out, American soldiers quickly fell in love with it, and it was well known among soldiers for its striking and excellent wind resistance. Even today, this product is still the royal lighter of American soldiers. ”

Wang Liang can also think of many products that were popular in World War II.

Rolex watches, Parker pens, Coca-Cola, nylon, Jeep, Ray-Ban sunglasses......

Many people may find it incredible.

But history is like that, and it's fascinating.

Comment section.

"Let the old chief say this, it's like buying a Zippo lighter."

"There is a suspicion of forcibly inserting an advertisement, old chief."

"I want to buy a piece too, is it that magical?"

"I'm more interested in the Swiss Army Knife."

"Old chief, I can understand that watches, pens, nylons and jeeps were popular in World War II, what is the saying of Coca-Cola?"

"Am I just curious about Ray-Ban sunglasses? Could it be that when World War II was fought, each soldier of the United States had one? ”

Seeing that netizens had questions, Wang Liang replied: "Let me answer Ray-Ban sunglasses first." ”

"In my opinion, Ray-Ban sunglasses were one of the heroes of the Allied victory in World War II."

Wang Liang's words made many people confused for a while.

It's no secret that Ray-Ban sunglasses are favored by celebrities and are a symbol of a successful man.

Michael Jackson, superstar David Beckham, Blatter Pitt, Juliet Roberts, Hilton, Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau and other big names have essential equipment.

How did he become one of the heroes of the Allied victory in World War II?

"In 1920, the U.S. Air Force commissioned Bausch & Lomb (an eye care company founded in the mid-19th century) to develop a pilot's goggle to combat the glare of high altitudes. ”
