Qin Zhiyuan didn't think it was messy enough, so he discussed with Old Renault to continue to take bad medicine.
It is said that the old Renault has sent a telegram to his family to discuss the possibility of moving his family to Lanfang.
However, this is not realistic, and Paris probably will not agree to the old Renault moving, his business is too important for France.
Sure enough, the old Renault who came to see Qin Zhiyuan was wearing shorts, a T-shirt made of "hunter" clothing, and a wide-brimmed top hat, and seemed to have fully adapted to Lan Fang's life.
"Qin, if you don't call me, I guess I can get drunk until next year." Old Renault's tone was exaggerated.
"Your life is too easy, to be honest, I envy you." Qin Zhiyuan was half joking.
"Ahaha...... When you say this, I don't know how many people are envious of you...... "Old Renault is still reciprocating."
"Let's not flatter each other, look at this ......" Qin Zhiyuan took out a pair of underwear that had been packaged and handed it to Old Renault.
"What is this...... Old Renault took it with a puzzled face, and opened it casually: "What the hell, Qin, why did you start paying attention to this thing?" ā
This set of underwear is a set of women's underwear, including corset, stockings and other accessories, old Renault is a married person, so he can naturally recognize it.
"How fresh, don't your wife need it?" Qin Zhiyuan was curious.
"Oh, God......" Old Renault stroked his forehead and lamented, looking loveless: "Whether my wife uses this or not, it doesn't seem suitable for discussion here......"
Old Renault blinked twice quickly, and glanced at Misha, who was with him stealthily and quickly.
Misha is still Qin Zhiyuan's personal secretary, and he also has a registered soldier in France, but when Mixia returned to Lanfang with Qin Zhiyuan, the French War Department seemed to have forgotten this, and Qin Zhiyuan and Misha didn't seem to remember, so everyone was so "confused".
"Poof......" Old Renault's movements certainly couldn't escape Misha's eyes, and Mixia rolled his eyes at Qin Zhiyuan and Old Renault with a disgusted face.
Qin Zhiyuan understood that Old Renault had misunderstood what he meant, and explained in a timely manner: "You misunderstood, Louis, take a closer look, this is not made of silk, but a chemical raw material, only a very simple recipe is needed, and mass production can be quickly organized......"
"Wait, not silk?" Old Renault became interested, picked up the underwear and looked at it carefully, and even tested the smoothness and softness on the back of his hand.
"Yes, it's not silk, so it's cheap, it can be half or more cheaper than the price of existing underwear, think about it, if everyone can afford this kind of underwear, then how will it be sold?" Qin Zhiyuan showed a beautiful scene for the old Renault.
"Great!" Old Renault praised loudly, and a little star had already appeared in his eyes: "If it can be cheaper by half, then how much profit will we have?" ā
Old Renault is a real businessman, of course he understands the value of women's goods, you know, women and children often use the most profitable things, because parents always spare no expense for their children, and women are often irrational when shopping.
"You've never imagined so much, you know, if we sell it at half the price of the existing underwear, then our profit will be ninety percent ......" Qin Zhiyuan did not exaggerate, nor did he hide it.
"Ninety...... My God......" Old Renault exaggeratedly dropped the stockings in his hand, collapsed on the chair, and began to pant with his hands on his chest.
Profit of 90 percent, that is to say, the value created by this underwear will be 900 percent, which is much higher than selling cars and airplanes.
"How? Interested? "If Old Renault expresses interest now, then Qin Zhiyuan doesn't have to let Misha lift her skirt.
That's right, even on Misha, she was wearing a set of stockings, the kind that went down to the thighs. Of course, Misha certainly wouldn't pull her skirt up that much, up to the knees.
In the early 20th century, when women's clothing was still relatively conservative, there were not even hot pants, let alone bikinis, and the introduction of a women's shorts that reached above the knee caused an uproar in Europe.
However, in Lanfang, this problem does not seem to exist.
In fact, if it weren't for Qin Zhiyuan's mandatory requirements, the women of Lanfang basically did not wear shirts when bathing in the open air, and those girls did not think that this was a bad moral, because this was one of the customs handed down by the local aborigines.
Of course, Misha certainly couldn't accept this kind of thinking.
But there is no way, at present, in the Black Swan Castle, Qin Zhiyuan can only make Mi Xia move, and those female officials sent by Huang Bohan, Qin Zhiyuan, do not dare to provoke at all.
That vision is really too resentful......
"Of course, I'm very interested!" Old Renault's reaction was not Qin Zhiyuan's expectation.
"Since I don't have anything to do, please forgive me for leaving." A layer of frost could be scraped off Mixia's face, and he turned around and left without waiting for Qin Zhiyuan to answer.
"Uh...... You guys...... Didn't something happen? Old Renault was gossipy.
"Don't think about it...... Our relationship is as pure as an angel! Qin Zhiyuan looked serious.
"Wha...... That's why Misha dares to roll your eyes, and to be honest, I can feel Misha's resentment on the beach. "Old Renault was unscrupulous.
"Serious ......" Qin Zhiyuan forcibly pulled back the topic, picked up the stockings on the table and showed Old Renault: "Do you think this thing can replace raw silk?" ā
"Raw silk?" Old Renault's eyes were spinning rapidly, which was a true reflection of Old Renault's brain: "Do you think the Japanese are not miserable enough?" ā
Qin Zhiyuan tossed the Japanese, and a large part of the procedures were handled by the old Renault himself, and the old Renault naturally knew Qin Zhiyuan's thoughts.
There is no way, most of Qin Zhiyuan's subordinates are Orientals, and most of Old Renault's subordinates are Westerners. When dealing with the Western media, the old Renault has an innate advantage.
As one of the world's leading business giants, Renault Lao clearly knows what the economic lifeblood of the Japanese is, so when Qin Zhiyuan just mentioned "raw silk", Renault Lao immediately contacted the Japanese.
"What if...... Well, I mean, if the production of this thing is high enough, and the quality is maintained at almost 80 percent of the raw silk, then we can assume that this thing is enough to start a revolution in the textile industry, and raw silk will be a thing of the past. Old Renault answered in the affirmative.
"Sure, this thing is called 'nylon', although it looks very good now, but with the advancement of technology, the quality of nylon will get better and better, the color will be richer and richer, and it will be elastic, and it will also retain the characteristics of durability, the use of silk stockings made of nylon, it is equivalent to a woman's second skin, and women all over the world will be crazy about it." Qin Zhiyuan has big plans.
Speaking of stockings, it is certain that the status in a woman's heart is higher than that of her husband!
"You convinced me, say, where to start? France? United Kingdom? Or the United States? "Old Renault is ready for a big game.
"Why not at the same time?" Qin Zhiyuan's mind is not small.
"Then at the same time, I will immediately arrange someone to do it, and all the funds will be provided by me, and you will contribute the technology, enjoy the patent fee and half of the profit." The elder Renault agreed very happily and proposed a distribution method according to the previous way of cooperation.
āā¦ā¦ You'll find out later how much of a bargain you've taken advantage of! Qin Zhiyuan didn't want to make trouble, so he did what Old Renault said.
To be honest, now that Qin Zhiyuan is asked to take out some more money to invest in nylon factories and garment factories, Qin Zhiyuan really can't take it out.
Qin Zhiyuan's income is indeed a lot, but there are more places to spend money, military spending, shipyards, steel plants, machinery factories, etc., etc., every day Qin Zhiyuan opens his eyes, there are millions of yuan with small wings flying away, if there is no big heart, I really can't bear this kind of stimulation.
In real history, in 1938, the basic chemistry research institute of DuPont in the United States researched nylon, and then in 1939, DuPont launched nylon stockings, which caused a sensation in the United States, and by 1940, nylon products have been sold throughout the United States, and people described nylon as "as thin as spider silk, as strong as steel wire, and as beautiful as silk silk".
Just a year later, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.
If you look at the above timeline in isolation, you may not have a special feeling, but if you look at it together, it is not difficult to find the status of raw silk in Japan, when the demand for raw silk in the United States is not so urgent, the Japanese feel the catastrophe.
Of course, it would be a bit far-fetched to attribute the Japanese war to the poor sales of raw silk as the reason for the Japanese war against the Americans, but it is undeniable that when Japan lost its stable foreign exchange income, Japan also lost a stable source of materials, and in order to obtain more materials, Japan had to take risks.
Qin Zhiyuan now just wants the Japanese to feel the taste of the impending catastrophe in advance.
Of course, the emergence of Qin Zhiyuan has accelerated the research and development process of nylon, but Qin Zhiyuan cannot build a large-scale factory overnight, which will definitely take a long process, and may even take a year or two.
For Qin Zhiyuan, this time is just right.
Two years later, Lan Fang's various factories have been basically completed, and Lan Fang will establish a preliminary industrial base, at least whether it is a bullet or a battleship, Lan Fang can build it alone, and then it will be when Qin Zhiyuan and the Japanese tear their faces.
For the current Qin Zhiyuan, Qin Zhiyuan's task is to put a rope around the neck of Japan, and then slowly tighten it, and when the Japanese feel that they are about to suffocate, it is useless to resist.
