Chapter 8 Coca-Cola

Tang Ning believed Mitsuhiko's words a little, but his tone was still cold: "Hmph, I'll just say how you showed that you know so much about the black market yesterday, it turns out that you have also been in the underworld, Matsuda Group is indeed not a good thing, but is that Uda Group a good person?" ”

Mitsuhiko said with a sad face: "The leader of the Uda group is indeed not a good person, seeing that Matsuda Yoshiko became the boss by chance, and she was so beautiful, she moved her mind crookedly, planning to gain both people and money, but this was killed by Matsuda Yoshiko." But my friends are all good people.,They really can't survive to join the Uda group.,Higashino-kun turned out to be a top student of Todai.,If it weren't for the fact that his younger brothers and sisters were dying of hunger.,He would never have come to this point.,And Akakawa-kun、Shimada-kun turned out to be officers in the army.,They're really not bad people.,Please save them! ”

Tang Ning still asked a little suspiciously: "I can still believe a little bit about the high-achieving student of Dongda you said, but you said that the officers of the army went to the underworld?" How is this possible, isn't your Japanese government placing them in work? ”

Mitsuhiko explained: "You don't know, in fact, in today's Japan, Shimada and other former low-level officers are the most unlucky group of people. After the defeat, many Japanese people could not believe that the Yamato nation could be defeated, so they all attributed the blame to the command of the military department, and they could not find those high-ranking officials in the military department, so those low-level officers became punching bags, and even the soldiers under their command complained about them, and some soldiers even began to assassinate officers to vent their dissatisfaction with the defeat.

When they returned home, they found that due to the lack of communication in the later stages of the war, many family members thought they had been killed. Shimada-kun is that he finally returned to his hometown after nine deaths, only to find that his relatives had already completed his funeral, and even his wife had remarried, and he suddenly became a superfluous living dead. And because Japan's economic environment is too poor now, there are too many demobilized soldiers and returnees, and the government does not arrange jobs for low-level officers like Shimada at all, but he can't do anything other than fighting, so what can he do if he doesn't join the underworld? ”

Mitsuhiko's explanation made Tang Ning a little moved, and his original final plan was to control Japan, make the Japanese pay the price of invading China, and then use Japan's resources and technology to contribute to China's development, of course, and at the same time live a little more comfortable.

But to realize such a desire, the first step is to have your own industry and power, and the basis of doing this is to have your own, loyal to their own people, so at present, it seems that these battered Japanese former officers are a good choice, on the battlefield, have killed people, have seen blood, when the underworld is definitely no problem, if you can organize such a group of people as subordinates, then in the future, whether it is to control the ** or manage the enterprise, it will be a good help, as long as you can choke their lifeline, There is no worry that they will be disobedient.

And through my previous recruitment, in fact, the current Japanese people have a high level of education, but now the economy is extremely withered, so many talents like Higashino mentioned just now will go to the people, and it should not be difficult for me to recruit them at this time.

In particular, I have already thought of the first step of the development project, and now Japan is too poor, and the people don't have much money in their hands, so they can't be counted on to make money.

Although high-ranking officials, royalty, and big businessmen have a lot of money, they are now low-key and dare not publicize it, so it is not easy to directly position the target market to them.

Another point is that the United States is now implementing an economic blockade against Japan, so orders for export or agency processing cannot be received at all, and only when the Korean War breaks out can we get an opportunity for rapid development, but before that, we must have a certain foundation, otherwise even if we are US military officers, we will not be able to get many orders.

After thinking about it, Tang Ning found that the most spending power in Japan now is the US military, and only their money is the best to earn. The treatment of the US military is good, and the allowance for soldiers stationed abroad is higher, but in this part of Japan, there are not many places for the US military to spend money, and almost no one eats out, because there is too little food in Japan now, so the things made are too unpalatable, so the US military buys in the supply station or eats in the canteen, the price is not expensive, and the same is true for drinking, and the housing costs almost nothing, just look at the 27 dollar mansion in Downing, so most of the US military's expenses are spent on finding women and gambling.

At the same time, the production process should not be too complicated, the equipment required should not be too much, and it should not arouse the opposition of the US military, and it is better to get their support. The last thing that came to Downing's mind was Coca-Cola.

The Second World War made the top ten brands popular, Coca-Cola is one of them, it can be said that Woodruff really established the hegemony of Coca-Cola as the world's No. 1 soft drink with the help of World War II, and pushed Coca-Cola to the world with the help of World War II.

During World War II, Coca-Cola appeared as a military supply, and American soldiers regarded Coca-Cola and camel cigarettes as symbols of their hometown, and Woodruff spared no cost to truly achieve what he said: "In any corner of the world, wherever American troops are stationed, every soldier must be able to drink a bottle of Coca-Cola for five cents."

Unfortunately, the U.S. military's war against Japan was at the end of World War II, and Coca-Cola did not have time to build a mobile factory in Japan, and the war ended. And now the peak of Japan's U.S. military once reached 250,000, what a huge market it is, as long as everyone consumes a bottle of Coke every day, they can make a fortune.

The reason why Downing thought of this method is also related to his family, Downing's family is a shareholder of the Coca-Cola Company, although Downing is not favored in the family, but he can also get help, otherwise it is impossible to mix into the position of captain at the age of 22, and after establishing the Coca-Cola factory in Japan, he can recruit workers as subordinates at will, and secretly develop his own power, anyway, the current Japanese have very low requirements, as long as they can make them full, they will work hard, and then gather a group of talents from it, If you secretly support an underworld force that obeys your own orders, then you will have a foundation for your ideals.

PS: I decided to assist Qian Xuesen to return to China in 1955, isn't this cool?
