September 9, 19o6.

On this day, a new type of electric lamp appeared on the counters in major cities in the United States - tungsten incandescent lamp. This type of bulb uses a double helix tungsten filament as the filament, so that the contact surface between the filament and the gas is minimized. It is filled with argon and nitrogen mixture to inhibit the evaporation of tungsten filament, and the life and light rate are greatly increased.

As early as 1879, Thomas Alva Edison of the United States understood the carbon fiber incandescent lamp and was the first to send electric light sources into the home. However, the life of this kind of electric lamp made of carbonized bamboo filament is less than 1oo hours, and the bulb needs to be replaced once in less than half a month, while the service life of this new type of electric lamp has reached 1ooo hours!

The life of tungsten incandescent lamp is 1o times that of carbon fiber incandescent lamp, the light rate is 3 times that of it, but the price is only 2 times that of it.

The price of 4o cents each is nothing at all for Americans. A batch of 3o thousand light bulbs was sold out in three days.

The manufacturer of the new light bulb, "Galaxy Electric Company", is also remembered by the public.

At the same time, the company also launched another product - household vacuum cleaners.

Vacuum cleaners appeared in 19o1, but they were too large to fit on a wagon, and they couldn't be used at home. In 19o2, a "miniaturized" vacuum cleaner appeared, but it also weighed 4o kilograms, and there was no way to popularize it. The vacuum cleaners that appear today are very lightweight, less than 3 kilograms, and have a pair of wheels, which is very convenient to use.

Many families in the United States have carpets, and carpet dusting is a very nerve-wracking thing, and now with a household vacuum cleaner, it is much easier. Moreover, this kind of vacuum cleaner completely adopts the mature design of later generations, and it is not comparable to similar products now in terms of appearance and function.

As a result, the vacuum cleaner of Galaxy Electric was well received as soon as it was launched. The price of $8o per unit is not cheap, but it is good value for money, with 10,000 vacuum cleaners sold out in a week and orders pouring in.

Of course, this "Yinhe Electric Company" is the industry of Wenzong, although these products are not profiteering products, but the market is large and exclusive, and the profits are still very considerable. This month brought him a profit of 390,000 US dollars, although it seems that it is not much now, but the home appliance market is an emerging market, as long as the brand occupies the market, the future profit is very considerable.

On the same day, a new brand of cigarettes appeared on the U.S. market, the "Rose brand" cigarette. This kind of cigarette has one more filter than similar products, and at this time there is no acetate, and the filter is made of absorbent cotton.

For smokers, with this little thing, they will no longer smoke tobacco into their mouths when smoking, which is much more convenient. Therefore, the market response is very good, and it is also a big sale. "Rose brand" cigarettes, according to the high, medium and low grades, launched three brands of cigarettes.

Cigarettes are a highly profitable industry, with producer Pacific Tobacco making $230,000 in profits this month alone.

Needless to say, this "Pacific Tobacco Company" is also the industry of Mr. Wen.

On the bright side, of course, both companies are subsidiaries of the American "Zenith Group of Companies".

Before these products were put on the market, the "Zenith Company" took out $20,000 to advertise in the United States in accordance with the previous process.

Of course, the necessary means of patent protection are also ahead of the curve.

You must know that the United States is now the world's largest copycat country, and American factories are staring at their European counterparts and real rooms all year round, as long as there is any new technology coming out, the hard-working American people will come out of the copycat at the first time, and then dump it into the world with greater output.

For example, 8o% of aspirin on the world market comes from the United States, but less than one-tenth of them have been patented. Angry with Bayer, which owns the patent, half to death. However, the Germans are not very good, and they also started by copycating Britain and France.

When Dickens visited the United States, he complained to the Americans that his novels were sold all over the streets in the United States, but he never paid him even a penny. The U.S. Congress rightly retorted: "The state is not yet there, and the poor people should be allowed to obtain knowledge or entertainment at a lower price, and besides, if the publishing house can reduce the price of the book without paying royalties to foreign authors, it will be able to attract more readers, so in the long run it will increase the popularity and long-term income of the authors...... "Yunyun." Dickens burst into tears.

Mr. Wen, who came from later generations, had a deep understanding of the American people's temperament, and of course he had been prepared for a long time.

The Zenith has hired many lawyers in the United States, forming a large group of hundreds of lawyers, many of whom are well-known barristers in the United States, with a commission of $120,000 per year. Their task, in addition to improving patent cases and eliminating loopholes as much as possible, is to crack down on counterfeit goods. As soon as any counterfeit goods appear, they immediately file a complaint and demand hefty damages – 70 percent of which will be paid by the lawyers.

Of course, whether you can win the lawsuit is another matter, the focus is to interfere with the other party's production, increase the opponent's market entry cost and industry threshold. This is what Wen Deji learned from Microsoft in the original plane.

Banazal, who was the general manager of the Zenith Company, wanted to hire a local lawyer in Europe as well, but the American lawyer team immediately stopped him and volunteered to help monitor any counterfeiting in Europe, saying that there was no lawyer in Europe better than American lawyers.

Banazar knew that these lawyers also wanted to earn European compensation, but he also agreed with their boasting, knowing that the most terrible and vicious people in the United States were lawyers, so he agreed to their demands. Under the dedicated work of this fierce team of lawyers, we have successfully protected the sales of a variety of patented products under the company.

............................................................

From 19o6 onwards, under the influence of economic laws, the United States, the newly rising world's largest industrial power, also fell into a small economic recession, with insufficient factory operations, weak domestic markets, and sluggish finance. The U.S. steel industry began to cut production, with about one-eighth of its capacity suspended.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wen Desi bought a batch of discontinued steel smelting equipment from American Steel Company, including 3 2oo-ton blast furnaces, 8 5O-ton open-hearth furnaces, and 4 sets of 3O-ton special steel smelting furnaces. I also bought a complete set of rolling equipment, which can roll rails, steel plates, profiles, and steel pipes. I also bought a set of seamless tube rolling equipment.

Because it was second-hand equipment and it was discontinued, these equipment were available at a very low price, and it only cost $1.62 million in total. Although these devices were second-hand, they were also at the advanced level at that time. If fully put into operation, it can produce 70,000 tons of iron and 140,000 tons of steel per year,4. 30,000 tons of special steel. It can produce more than 60,000 tons of rails. This output is already three times that of the Hanyang Iron Works at this time.

At the same time, Wen Desi also bought a set of synthetic ammonia equipment, and ordered a set of joint alkali production equipment and several sets of equipment for the production of three acids and two alkalis, of course, these two sets of equipment are using the new process of later generations, so there is no stock. In order to maintain secrecy, he divided the equipment into several parts, ordered them from 17 companies in six countries, and reassembled them back to China.

In addition, several sets of chemical equipment and several real rooms were bought.

With such a good opportunity to buy the bottom, Banazar was naturally not idle, and the "Zenith Company" opened another food and beverage company in the United States. The main products are the energy drink "Red Bull", fruit juice drinks and tea drinks of later generations. In addition, several bankrupt shipyards and machinery factories were acquired.

In total, more than $6oo was spent on these investments.

According to Wende's plan, Banazal went to Campeche, Mexico, and as an American company, there were no obstacles to buying land and oil exploration rights there. A total of $640,000 was spent on 2oo square kilometers of land around the county of Lower Seroazir.

Of course, before the strength grows, Mr. Wen does not plan to exploit oil now, and the big dinosaur of Standard Oil is too difficult to deal with.

Wen Deji is planning to wait until the U.S. Supreme Court dismantles the big monster of Standard Oil, and then exploit this big oil field himself. On May 15, 1911, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Standard Oil was a monopoly and should be dismantled under the Sherman Antitrust Act of 189o. According to this ruling, the Standard Oil empire was split into about 37 regional oil companies.

However, Mr. Wen didn't plan to wait stupidly, he would send someone to do something to speed up the progress of this time. Of course, if the Zenith Company becomes a monster that can't even gnaw at the standard, it can also be mined in advance.

..................................................................

Since May, he has sent hundreds of cyborgs to various parts of the country, on the one hand, to infiltrate and propagate the New Army and progressive youth, and on the other hand, to contact revolutionary organizations such as the Liberation Society to win over and support them.

In addition, it has also dispatched personnel to various overseas places to carry out various infiltration and espionage work. Among them, the United States has made the greatest efforts and achieved the greatest results.

The cyborgs sent by Wen Deji cooperated with the Zhi Gong Tang to form the Overseas Chinese Mutual Aid Association. Its purpose is to "provide the Chinese with the help they can legitimately".

There are two kinds of services provided by Chinese mutual aid organizations, one is basic services, which all Chinese can participate in, such as various trainings, emergency food, emergency dormitories, legal consultation, etc., and the other is membership services, such as education loans, serious illness grants, legal aid, job information, etc.

Members are required to pay a monthly membership fee of 5o cents, which is exempt if they do not work, but they are required to pay a minimum of six months per year. The highest body of the Overseas Chinese Mutual Aid Association is a nine-member committee, which has open accounts and affairs, and is supervised by a professional accounting firm and supervised by all personnel.

The first large-scale activity of the Overseas Chinese Mutual Aid Association was to clean up the garbage in the Chinese residential areas, improve environmental sanitation, improve sewerage, build public toilets, and plant the vacant land on both sides of the street and the nearby wasteland into lawns and gardens.

Then, the membership fee will be used to establish an activity center of the Overseas Chinese Mutual Aid Association, and carry out training work to train English, etiquette and other knowledge, so that Chinese can be spoken in the Chinese area and English when going out. And establish schools, hospitals and other public places that mainly provide services for overseas Chinese, and gradually promote scissors, which can be long or short, but the braids must be removed.

The biggest result of this was an action against the Chinese Exclusion Act. The U.S. General Administration of Citizenship and Immigration (USCIS) added this clause to its "Handbook of Immigration Regulations" in 19o2: "The certificates of American naturalization obtained by Chinese after May 6, 1882 are all illegally released, and therefore cannot be regarded as conferring any rights on the holder of American citizenship."

In fact, contrary to what most people think, Wen Deji raised his hands to approve of the "Chinese Exclusion Act", because he did not want a large number of Chinese to emigrate out, and his plan would only be suspected of insufficient manpower, where there would be a lot of people. He even wished that Chinese immigrants would be banned all over the world.

If the United States treated immigrants from all countries equally, Moonson would not say anything at all. However, the "Chinese Exclusion Act" is specifically aimed at Chinese, which is too slap in the face.

As a result, the Overseas Chinese Mutual Aid Association took the General Administration of Immigration to court with the help of a group of lawyers from the "Zenith Company". Mid-August. The Supreme Court's verdict came down. Although the Chinese Exclusion Act was upheld, at the same time, the Supreme Court held that "Chinese born in this country have sufficient grounds to become citizens of the United States and enjoy the right to citizenship." Anyone who has worked in the U.S. for 5 years should have permanent residency, even if they cannot be naturalized. "The Chinese Exclusion Act has been opened.

After this incident, the reputation of the Overseas Chinese Mutual Aid Association was greatly enhanced, and a large number of Chinese in the United States joined the mutual aid association and became members.

The next step is to organize the Chinese people, funded by Xingke, Zhigongtang to provide contacts, and open a chain of fast food restaurants across the United States. These fast food restaurants are all based on the standards of later generations, and the selling point is that they are standardized, convenient, hygienic and cheap, and at the same time provide takeaway. Because of the same standards, all fast food restaurants have the same taste and the same decoration style. First, it reduces costs, and secondly, it enables customers to build brand awareness.

Although it is a Chinese fast food restaurant, in order to cater to American customers, the taste and variety of food have also been adjusted to match the local style. Moreover, Wen Desi also directly copied the classic foods of fast food restaurants such as KFC and McDonald's in later generations, such as fried chicken and French fries, so this fast food restaurant is actually a mixture of Chinese and Western, but these fast restaurants have not yet appeared in this era, and these foods have naturally not appeared, and it is not wrong to directly say that they are Chinese foods.

Finally, all the relevant patents of this kind of Chinese fast food restaurant will naturally not forget to apply. The purpose of running this chain of fast food restaurants is several things, one of which is to use it as a base to organize Chinese people from all over the country and hold together together. The second is to facilitate the management of overseas Chinese, as well as brainwashing, and the third is to make money, for the fast food restaurant, a big profit, Wen Dehei from later generations is very clear.
