Chapter 256: Negotiation 2 (First Update) (Asking for subscriptions, monthly passes, and various !! ）

John Jr. inherited the old Morgan's outstanding business talent, he himself is very optimistic about the market prospects of penicillin, if the United States can successfully win the market agency in South America and Oceania, then this is of great benefit to the US government to recover and develop the economy, and it is also extremely beneficial to their Morgan family.

If John Jr. was still holding the attitude of hanging Chen Feng before the Soviet Union joined, then when Claire quietly told him that the Soviet delegation had arrived in Guisui a week ago. After hearing this news, John Jr.'s first reaction was to immediately negotiate with Chen Feng, because John Jr. did not think that the production capacity of the 40th Army was high. Penicillin was not invented by the Chinese, as far as things are concerned, the UK has had it in 28 years, but until ten years later there is still no country that can produce pure penicillin drugs in large quantities, and even the amount of semi-finished penicillin is very small.

John Jr. has made statistics, Chen Feng sold a total of $150 million of penicillin drugs to the outside world last month, and the goods were delivered as soon as the payment arrived, and it can be seen that the production capacity of this Chinese warlord is still good, according to the estimates of American economic experts, its monthly production capacity is at least more than 200 million US dollars, or even more.

But for the sake of the overall consideration of China's industrial production capacity, the penicillin production capacity controlled by this Chinese warlord cannot be too high, and the maximum monthly sales cannot exceed $500 million. In John's opinion, penicillin drugs work wonders. The market response is very good, and its production capacity is very limited, the global monthly production capacity is less than 500 million US dollars, so at this time, whoever shares more sales, who will make greater profits.

Compared with the Soviet Union, the US Government has lagged behind a lot, at least the Soviet Government is already Chen Feng's agent, and the US Government has not even had the agency of the United States itself due to policy mistakes, so the United States must take the initiative to fight for it. Otherwise, you can only watch others eat meat. I can't even smell the soup.

John Jr. proved to have a keen sense of business, and less than an hour after he made his request for negotiations, a delegation of the Soviet government also submitted an application to the 40th Army for negotiations. However, since the request made by the US government was in advance, Chen Feng decided to negotiate with the US government delegation first.

There were only two people in the Chahar Provincial Government meeting room. Chen Feng and John Jr. Other than that, there is no one else. Chen Feng doesn't want too many people to know about this kind of negotiation, and of course this is what the Americans want to see.

"Chen, you are a young and promising person. It's incredible that I was still in school when I was your age, and you have such a huge family business! Little John said with emotion.

"Mr. Morgan, to be honest, I wouldn't want to be such a successful person if I could. My dream is to be a happy rich kid who can do what he loves every day, not like now. Chen Feng said.

"Chen, I want to know how you plan to work with the U.S. government, or what do you want?" Little John then asked.

"Mr. Morgan, cooperation must be carried out on the premise that we respect each other, and it must be carried out on the premise that both parties are willing to do so, so that this cooperation can be long-lasting, and this kind of cooperation can also enable both of us to get what we want and maximize the benefits, what do you think?"

"You're right, my father has always taught me to respect my partner, not only his people, but also his interests."

"In that case, then I would like to ask Mr. Morgan, can you represent the U.S. government now?" This is a very important question, and if John Morgan Jr. is not able to represent the U.S. government right now, then there is no need for this negotiation to continue, because there are some things that have to be negotiated with those who can really represent the U.S. government, and others will talk about it in vain.

"Chen, before I came, Mr. President had authorized me to handle the cooperation with you, and I only need to be responsible for Mr. President alone, you can rest assured of this!" John Jr. said.

"Well, in that case, let's get straight to the point. What I want is very simple, that is, the United States must not continue to support Japan's aggression against China, and at the same time, the United States must support us in this war against aggression. Chen Feng said clearly.

"Chen, you should know that what we are doing now is a commercial cooperation, and your conditions have gone beyond the scope of commercial cooperation, have involved national politics, and even have affected the national strategy of the United States, which I am afraid no one will be able to do. After all, business is just business, and he cannot influence national politics. Little John said.

"Mr. Morgan, you are wrong. The reason why the United States connived at and even supported Japan in carrying out this unjust war of aggression is for two reasons: The first reason is that out of national strategic considerations, you hope that Germany will kill to the east and Japan to attack the socialist Soviet Union from the east of Europe and northeast China, so as to weaken and even eliminate the socialist Soviet Union. It is precisely this strategy of weakening and even annihilating the socialist Soviet Union, which was born out of hatred of socialism, that has led you to carry out a policy of appeasement and connivance against Germany in the west and Japan in the east for a long time. Seeing that Little John seemed to want to open his mouth to refute, Chen Feng continued: "Mr. Morgan, don't deny it, there are only two of us in this conference room, and all the words come out of my mouth, and no third person knows what to say, except if you want to report to your Mr. President, of course." ”

"Prior to this, the historical fact that the United States connived at and supported Japan's aggression against China could not be concealed, and there is no doubt about whether you and the United States Government admit it or not. You have reason to hate the communist movement, you have reason to be hostile to the Red Soviet Union, but you must not base this hatred and hostility on the suffering of the Chinese, and we will definitely not pay for anyone, not even the United States. It is also worth mentioning that Japan is not as obedient as you think, and excessive indulgence and support will only end up hiding the United States in the quagmire of war. Don't you think Japan is dangerous right now? ”

"How could Japan go to war with the United States, you must know that Japan now relies on imports for a large part of the steel and oil needed for the war, and as long as these are broken, then Japan will not have the strength to fight again." Little John retorted.

Chen Feng smiled disdainfully and said, "Mr. Morgan, since even you know the weakness of the Japanese government, do you think the Japanese government will be limited by the United States forever?" Of course, it is impossible, and any war resources are safest and most in line with national interests only when they are in their own hands. I am sure that once the U.S. government cuts off the supply of oil, steel, rubber, and other strategic materials to Japan, the Japanese government will definitely take it itself. ”

"Fetch it yourself. How to take it? Little John asked with a frown.

"By force, of course!" As he spoke, Chen Feng unfolded a map of the World Realm. said: "Mr. Morgan, please look here, do you know what kind of place this is?" Yes, this is Southeast Asia. This is your American colony. It was a British colony. It was a French colony. It was a Dutch colony. But what do you think these places are in the eyes of the Japanese? ”

"What is it?"

"Hehehe, here's oil, here's rubber. Here's copper, here's steel, here's aluminum, and all of these are the resources that Japan has to sustain this war to the end. What's more, the neighbor has meat at home, and this neighbor is very weak, I don't have meat at home, but my fists are hard enough, what do you think will happen next? Chen Feng said.

"You mean that the Japanese will declare war on the United States for war resources, and that neither our great United States, nor the British Empire, nor the rooster of Gaul are no match for the Japanese in terms of force, do you?" Little John asked with a frown.

Then Chen Feng continued: "At least that's the case now, isn't it? As far as I know, now the total number of US Army forces is only 100,000, and the number of Navy is even less. But do you know how many troops Japan has now? You don't know the way, but I do know that Japan now has 48 divisions and 15 independent brigades of the regular army, plus the national police force, the railway force, the epidemic prevention force, the coastal defense force, etc., with a total strength of more than 1.3 million. ”

"In addition, Japan also has a naval combined fleet that is the third largest in the world and the first in Asia, and now the strength of this fleet has surpassed that of your American fleet in the Pacific, and as long as they want, it will only take a few months to destroy your Pacific Fleet. And Japan can mobilize at least 3 million reservists and 5 million citizens to fight in a short period of time, but what about you Americans? In addition, the Japanese people are still martial, they have a very high sense of distress, it can be said that the whole people support the war, and the soldiers are also brainwashed by militaristic education, and they are not as afraid of death as Westerners, so as long as Japan is willing, the interests of the United States in Asia may be replaced by Japan at any time, and even Japan will attack the mainland. ”

Chen Feng's words are not alarmist, you must know that it is still 1938, and Japan at this time is already fully prepared for war, and both the army and the navy are expanding very strongly. As for the United States, it is still struggling in the quagmire of economic crisis, even if some results have been achieved through Roosevelt's New Deal, but there is still a long way to go before the economy fully recovers and even develops. Even when the Pacific War broke out in 1941, the main navy of the United States and Japan had only 345 large and small warships, totaling 1.43 million tons. Among them, there were 17 battleships, 8 aircraft carriers, 18 heavy cruisers, 19 light cruisers, 165 destroyers, and 106 submarines.

At that time, the Japanese Navy had a total strength of 236 large and small warships, totaling 1.19 million tons, equivalent to 60% of the United States, 10 battleships, 10 aircraft carriers, 18 heavy cruisers, 20 light cruisers, 112 destroyers, and 75 submarines, close to 80% of the United States. It is important to know that these US ships were built after the situation in the Pacific became increasingly tense in the next few years, and Japan's combined naval fleet across the Pacific has now basically taken shape, so the Japanese Navy is almost as powerful as the US Navy at present. If it is compared with the US Pacific Fleet, its strength is much higher. (To be continued......)
