C408 Is It a Human or a Ghost
But even so, it was only in the past. The Dongwo manufacturing industry had suffered a huge impact. The automotive manufacturing, shipbuilding, and other industries that required large amounts of metal materials quickly declined, causing the New Sun Iron Company to lose a large amount of profit. And Dong Chen had never purchased even a kilogram of steel from the New Sun Iron production bases all over the world. This was invisible. It also caused the New Sun Train to lose a large number of old customers, because of those old customers. Now, they were either bought by Dong Chen or led by his nose. They did not have any dealings with the New Sun Train at all.
To Zhang Yunfeng, this was an opportunity. Zhang Yunfeng had long believed in one thing. When the business was facing a huge crisis... The bigger the plate was, the faster it would fall. There were also two companies, one with twenty people. The other had 20 thousand people, cutting down 50% of their market. The companies with 20 people could easily make adjustments, but the companies with 20 thousand people could not. This was the current situation for the New Sun Train.
In addition, Government of Dongwo's biggest goal was how to get more jobs. They had no time to care about the current situation for New Sun Train. Therefore, if Zhang Yunfeng proposed using enough jobs as an exchange condition, the Government of Dongwo would definitely give up the New Sun Iron for the sake of the overall situation.
Nie Minhui thought for a moment and was quite interested in Zhang Yunfeng's plan. She said, "If we can get the New Sun Iron, it will definitely be a qualitative leap for Zhong Yu. However, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. I am worried that Zhong Yu will not be able to get it. "
"It's alright." Zhang Yunfeng said, "I'll handle this matter. If it works out, we'll hand over the New Sun Iron to Zhongyu."
"Deal!" Nie Minhui smiled excitedly and said, "This way, I will give the high-end steel production line to Zhong Chen and use it to produce more high-end new materials."
Just as Zhang Yunfeng was preparing to take down the new ironworks, something shocking happened to Dongwo.
Recently, the prime minister of Dongwo, An Beijinsi, had been under tremendous internal pressure. Many people accused him of being responsible for the economic depression of Dongwo. In addition to the internal conflicts, An Beijinsi had always wanted to find an opportunity to divert the attention of the people in the country. The appearance of the new Dongwo tank was definitely the best choice to attract the attention of the people and increase their cohesiveness.
The Dongwo 10 Type Tank was mass-produced a few years ago. At that time, it was the 10th Type Tank. It could be one of the advanced tanks in the world, but it was definitely not the best. However, after the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry obtained the special steel alloy from Dong Chen, the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry decided to completely modify the Type 10 Tank. The mechanical transmission parts were all made of Dongchen steel alloy. In addition, with the special qualities of Dong Chen steel alloy, it made a lot of modifications to the tank. After the modification, the Type 10 Tank was tested on its power performance. It could already stand on equal footing with the newest Leopard Tank in Germany.
An Beijinsi had also benefited from the Dongwo media recently. He had promoted the advanced version of the improved version of the model 10 tank. This action had also attracted the attention of many citizens, and it had reduced the blame of the government.
Recently, the Dongwo media had been following and interviewing the limit test for the improved version of the 6 10 Type Tanks. It was almost like a live broadcast, and it was being broadcasted to the entire nation. At the beginning, the various parameters of the improved version of the 10 tanks were world class or even top class. However, after several days of public testing, the six tanks were completely paralyzed in front of the entire country within two hours!
In the first second of the video, the improved version of the 10th tank, which was still dashing forward bravely, was completely paralyzed in the next second. When the people saw the improved version of the 6 Type 10 tanks being paralyzed in a short period of time, criticisms were immediately heard everywhere. The Government of Dongwo did not expect that the carefully planned national show would end in such a shocking way. This made An Beijinsi extremely furious!
The Mitsubishi Heavy Industry was first held accountable by the government, and An Beijinsi was even held accountable in front of the Cabinet. The people who scolded the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry had already accumulated a deep grudge within the country, causing the situation in the country to worsen. They wanted the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry to thoroughly investigate the improved version of the 10th tank, which was paralysed one after another.
The Mitsubishi Heavy Industry stared at the huge pressure in the country and began to investigate, but the results came out very quickly.
The metal exhaustion of the transmission system caused the entire transmission system to completely collapse!
This result made the Dongwo Cabinet very confused, outsiders did not know. However, they knew that the improved version of the 10 types of tanks' transmission device... It used strategic resources that were secretly imported from Dong Chen's hands. This kind of steel was very durable. It was impossible for it to reach the limit of metal fatigue in such a short period of time! The six improved versions of the 10 tanks had been fully sealed, half-sealed, and fully open for testing for so many days since they had gone offline. There was no problem at all. Why did they suddenly collapse?
An Beijinsi loudly reprimanded the person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry at the emergency meeting and said, "The Mitsubishi Heavy Industry has always been the biggest national defense weapon Manufacturing Enterprise of the Great Dongwo. The improved version of the 10 tanks is also your responsibility to develop and manufacture it. Right now, the people in the country are asking you to give a satisfactory result. And you actually said that it was because of metal fatigue! Wouldn't that make the world laugh their teeth off? The tank's total lifespan was only close to a thousand hours, and then the transmission system completely collapsed. No country's tank has ever had such an embarrassing thing!"
The person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry said with a face full of shame and grievance, "Prime Minister, although these words sound unbelievable, but the reason why the improved version of the 6 Type 10 tanks is paralyzed... It is indeed because of the metal fatigue that our professionals dismantled these 6 Tanks. The originally solid transmission gear has already become hard plastic. Not to mention the high power of the diesel engine, even a tenth of its power can't support it. "
"How can that be?" An Beijinsi frowned and asked, "Didn't you spend a lot of money and effort to buy these steel alloys from Dong Chen? The person in charge of the Mitsubishi materials also verified that Dong Chen's steel alloys are very durable. It's not something that other steel alloys can compare with. But... How long has it been since the steel alloy turned into hard plastic? "
"That's true." The person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry said helplessly, "We can't figure out why. It feels like a cow can actually be knocked down by a fly. But that's the truth. Therefore, we suspect that Dong Chen must have done something to the steel alloy that he sold us. "
"He did something to it!" An Beijinsi could not help but ask, "There is such a tampering? One second was steel, and the next second was plastic. Can you do this kind of thing? "
The person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry said, "We can't, but I believe that Dong Chen will be able to do it. They must have done something special to prevent us from discovering the fatal traps of this batch of steel alloy in a short period of time. This deadly trap will only appear at a certain time. "
An Beijinsi asked again, "What are the use of the steel alloy imported from Dong Chen?"
Mitsubishi Heavy Industry replied, "We used that batch of steel alloy to upgrade the power system and transmission system of the Type 10 tank. We also upgraded the transmission system of the Eon Shield class destroyer and the submarine's transmission system."
An Beijinsi asked in horror, "All used?"
The person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry also realized the seriousness of the problem. He blurted out, "That's right, all of them were used because the price was extremely high back then. Furthermore, it was extremely difficult to obtain them. Therefore, even the side ingredients have been used to the greatest extent. We've used a portion of the scraps to complete the upgrade of some small-scale combat machines. We even upgraded some of the parts of the F15 fighter."
An Beijinsi quickly asked, "Is there any problem with the other machines that use this kind of steel alloy?"
"Not yet." The person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry explained, "As the destroyer, submarine, and fighter aircraft are more sensitive to the Dongwo, we have always kept a low profile. The improved version of the Type 10 Tank is because of your request. That's why we increased the testing speed and continuously broadcasted it to the public. Therefore, in terms of usage time, the improved version of the 6 10 tanks was the one that took the longest time to be used. If Dong Chen had really done something to the Tanks, and it required a certain amount of time to be used, then it would be obvious. I think that we will have more equipment that uses Dong Chen's steel alloy and have the same malfunction in the following days. "
"Increase the strength of the test!" Abe Jinsan shouted, "Calculating the time of use of other Dongchen alloy machines, let the machines that have the longest use but have not encountered any accidents run non-stop for 24 hours. Let's see if there will be the same problem! "
A cabinet member said, "Prime Minister, currently investigating whether Dongchen has tampered with the batch of steel alloys is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is, how should we give the people a satisfactory answer? The government solemnly said that the improved version of the 10-type tank is one of the most advanced tanks in the world. However, before it was officially installed, the six tested tanks all had major malfunctions. The citizens need a reasonable explanation."
An Beijinsi picked up the teacup in front of him and threw it on the ground. He cursed angrily, "It must be Dong Chen! It must be them! Think about it, the attitude of Dong Chen's Dongwo a while ago. It was a completely hostile attitude. Dong Chen had such an attitude. How could he be willing to sell us the steel alloy with great strategic significance just for a little money! Our deal with Dong Chen back then was done by the shell companies of both sides using normal steel import and export trading as the basis. According to the contract of the shell companies, they could not find any information related to Dong Chen at all. Furthermore, we violated the rules of import and export of goods from Dong Chen. This itself is a diplomatic matter. In this way, even if we can be sure that Dong Chen is the one behind this. There is nothing we can do about it! We can only choose to swallow our anger. "
" Then who will take responsibility for this? " One of the cabinet members said, "Someone has to take responsibility for this matter and take the blame."
After thinking about it, they couldn't think of a good solution.
Based on the current situation in the country, the Government of Dongwo had to give a convincing statement as soon as possible to convince the entire country. However, the most tragic thing was that it couldn't tell the truth. There was no fundamental evidence that could support the truth. In this way, if the Government of Dongwo wanted to give a satisfactory explanation to the people, it would definitely need a scapegoat.
At this time, An Beijinsi said, "The steel used by the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry to produce national defense weapons. From the surface, it looks like... Almost all of them came from the new ironworks. Furthermore, this time, the improved version of the 10 Type Tank was made using the materials provided by Dong Chen. However, it was announced to the public that it came from the New Sun Iron. This way, if the New Sun Iron could take the blame, the people should believe it. "
The person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry asked in astonishment, "You mean to say that the real reason for this matter is to be made public to the world, but the New Sun Iron has to take the blame for this kind of inferior material?"
An Beijinsi asked back, "What else? If the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry is willing to resist, I have no objections. You can say that the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry has a fatal flaw in the design of the transmission system. In that case, the entire country will fall into great panic and criticism. The pillar of the national defense company has actually made such a fatal mistake that is difficult to understand and forgive. Then, what was the situation with the other weapons and equipment in the Dongwo? Were they reliable or not? If the people thought so, they would lose their sense of security. In turn, they will lose their sense of security and trust towards the government and the Cabinet!"
At this point, An Beijinsi continued, "So at this time, sacrificing the new ironware is the best solution. There is no other reason. We use the reason that the raw materials of the new ironwood have fatal defects. Push the responsibility onto the new ironwood and announce to the public that... This kind of shoddy raw materials with fatal defects are only used on the improved version of the 10th tank. In this way, the public will not doubt the other national defense equipment produced by the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry. This can be considered as giving Mitsubishi a way out. "
The person in charge of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry clearly couldn't bear it and said, "The New Sun Iron Company has already been destroyed. If we let them take the blame, I'm afraid they'll never be able to turn the tables again."
"The bigger picture is more important!" An Beijinsi blurted out, "We have to give the people an explanation, and it can minimize the doubts and worries of the people! At this time, the New Sun Train was the most suitable scapegoat! I think the serious consequences of this matter, sacrificing the New Sun Train is not a big deal. "
The Cabinet also understood An Beijinsi's approach. If a plane were to crash due to their own reasons... And the conclusion that the people got was that the plane itself had a fatal flaw. Then... The people would lose faith in the model and the company that produced it, but if the people came to the conclusion that the pilot did not operate properly and caused the plane to crash... Then the people would not consider the model itself too much.
This was also the reason why the Samsung Airlines and the Mayfair Airlines left the market due to the accident, and the 737, 747, 320 airplanes... Missing... Although there were quite a number of them, it had never caused the people to lose confidence.
It was a pity for the new ironclad, who was in Zhang Yunfeng's plan. He did not expect that before Zhang Yunfeng's plan even arrived, it would be ruthlessly tricked by its own people.
A few days later, the Government of Dongwo announced the investigation notice for the improved version of the 10th tank, which was a collective failure. The announcement said, "As the raw materials for the improved version of the 10 tanks are supplied by the new Japanese iron, the new Japanese iron is used for the design and production of the raw materials. There is a fatal flaw in the design, causing the improved version of the tank to age too quickly. This caused the Government of Dongwo to feel extremely regretful, and the Government of Dongwo expressed extremely strong dissatisfaction with the new Ri Iron. It also issued a huge fine of 3 billion Yen to the new Japanese iron. "
When the media reported on this investigation report, in order to not arouse the suspicion of the public, they even specially filmed the already severely aged transmission parts, and an investigator picked up a huge transmission gear. He threw it on the ground, and the gear instantly broke into four pieces. Then, the investigator said angrily to the camera, "This is the steel alloy produced by New Sun Iron. It has the characteristics of aging. It doesn't even meet the requirements of the bicycle gear, but it is a material with fatal defects. It was put into the most advanced main tank of the Dongwo, and the result was... It's imaginable. "
Although the Government of Dongwo did not really punish the New Sun Iron by a dime, it even gave the New Sun Iron a huge subsidy for this. However, the price of the New Sun Iron taking the blame was extremely painful. The New Sun Iron was originally in the hearts of the people in the Dongwo. It had an extremely good reputation and reputation, but after being tossed around by this matter... New Sun Train became the three deer milk fans of Dongwo, like a rat crossing the street. Everyone shouted at it.
The New Sun Iron, who had taken the blame, did not dare to complain. After all, the big picture was the most important thing right now. The Government of Dongwo couldn't push the blame onto the main culprit, which was the Dongchen Group. Even if it pushed the blame, without any evidence to support it, the people would not believe it. Furthermore, the significance of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry was much greater than the New Sun Iron. At a time like this, it was even more impossible to sacrifice the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry. The only thing that could be sacrificed was... It's the New Sun Iron.
Just as the new Sun Iron was being disdained by the Dongwo, the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry made the two diesel submarines, which were equipped with new transmission components, operate at a high speed for over a hundred hours. Finally, the two submarines' transmission systems collapsed. They became a small boat on the surface of the sea, and in the end, they could only be dragged back by a large tow boat.
An Beijinsi was furious. From this test result, he could confirm that... Dong Chen must have done something to the materials that were sold to the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry! The hateful thing was that Dong Chen had put on an extremely difficult look. He had used this kind of fraudulent thing to take away a large amount of money from the Dongwo. Mitsubishi Heavy Industry It was even more tragic. After buying these materials, he was so happy that he thought that he could raise the defensive power of the Dongwo to a whole new level. However, he did not expect that everything that he had worked so hard for so long would turn into a bubble before he could raise it to a higher level. Not only did all of his investment and consumption not get any returns, but what was even more unacceptable was that... This useless effort had brought about a huge loss.
"Damn that Dong Chen! They have been plotting against us from the very beginning!" An Beijinsi was furious and almost ordered all of Dong Chen's businesses and production lines in the Dongwo to be shut down. But after calming down, he finally understood that he could not win against Dong Chen. This conclusion was already obvious. If he used this method to take revenge on Zhang Yunfeng... There was only one result he could get, and that was the one million Dongwo employees who had just gotten a job. They would fall into the abyss of unemployment and would not be able to extricate themselves.
And Zhang Yunfeng was not a fool. From the world-wide media coverage, he was certain that the Dongwo would soon find out the true cause and effect of the matter, but Zhang Yunfeng was not worried at all. Because he knew that the Government of Dongwo wouldn't be able to do anything to him. Even if he had twenty guts, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him. Would he dare to publicize all of this? This kind of thing, to An Beijinsi, was equivalent to going out to have sex. Unfortunately, the matter of having sex had been made known to everyone. At this time, he could only blame the water in the bathhouse for not being disinfected. However, it could not be said that the target of the sexual disease had infected him.
He had to suffer in silence. He could not speak of the pain. He could only swallow the blood in his stomach when he broke his teeth.
However, Zhang Yunfeng had never been a person who knew how to restrain himself. After the government announced the results of their investigation, dong Chen officially gave a suggestion to the Government of Dongwo, "Dong Chen has decided to buy the new Jet Iron at the price of 100,000 new jobs at market price!"
The Government of Dongwo was dumbfounded after receiving the suggestion. Zhang Yunfeng's actions were no doubt slapping their fragile faces repeatedly.
"Damn it! Bastard! Shameless! The financial Nazis were right! This bastard was simply Hitler alive, even more ferocious than Hitler. Hitler could not do the immoral thing of blowing up London and then going to London to buy scrap metal at the price of vegetables, but this Zhang Yunfeng could do it!" This was the first time An Beijinsi had completely lost control in a Cabinet meeting. The table was kicked over. The things on the table were all thrown to the ground. There were also curses and curses. It could not really alleviate his wounded heart. This feeling of being in someone else's calculations and being in someone else's hands for every second felt like an eternity. It made him suffer too much.
"We are using the new ironware as a scapegoat. It has already made Zhang Yunfeng laugh for a long time. He did not expect this! At this time, he still had the face to make a request to buy the new ironwood! Tell me, how can there be such a shameless bastard in this world! Is he a human or a ghost?"
