Yan Shun's plan is to check for defects from the bottom up, which is not the case for Li Mu's plan.

The first time he learned that Japan had begun to imitate smokeless gunpowder, Li Mu went to Washington to prepare to give the Japanese a good eye drop.

It is not so easy to deal with a country. Li Mu does not have the luxury to kill Japan with a steed group. If he can save some effort, Li Mu does not mind looking for more help.

It's okay to go all out for it.

"In order to develop smokeless gunpowder, 165 researchers have been sleeping for three months and spent more than 100,000 US dollars. But now the Japanese have stolen related technology without spending a penny. This kind of thing How can we be patient? Today the Japanese can steal smokeless powder, so tomorrow the Japanese can steal the electric light and telephone technology, can we just let it go? In the long run, no enterprise will reinvest in funds to develop new technology, because technology is always available. It could be stolen, and everyone expects to get it for nothing. This is a disaster for us. "Li Mu was furious in Grant's office and asked Washington to give justice to the Steed Group.

Regarding intellectual property rights, this gadget is a double-edged sword. It mainly depends on who owns the intellectual property rights. Countries that control intellectual property rights will accuse all plagiarism on the moral high ground, while vested interests are more often mutual. Shoving refused to take responsibility.

In fact, it is understandable that different positions have different attitudes.

"Rim, calm down, we can't wage a war on a country for smokeless powder." Grant was reasonable and didn't follow Li Mu's will.

"What to do? Do you just watch the damage of the Steed Group?" Li Mu rushed to the crown and must ask for an explanation.

"Of course not, Rimm, we will never look at the steed's interests being damaged, but we also cannot easily make a decision, you know, this kind of thing is not my decision." Grant is helpless, democracy Well, the president is not everything.

The President of the United States, as the head of state of the United States, does have the power to launch an external war, but this war is conditional and must be launched under the premise that the security of the United States is threatened.

The Japanese government's violation of the legitimate rights and interests of the Steed Group has indeed touched the national rights and interests of the United States, but it is indeed far-fetched to rise to the height of national security, so even if Grant wants to find justice for Li Mu and the Steed Group, Not using war this way.

At least not now.

"Mr. President, I understand your distress, so I don't want to make two countries fight because of this little thing, but I ask for a promise from you, since the US government cannot protect the rights of the Steed Group, then I ask you Allow me to put pressure on the Japanese government personally. "Li Mu's words were carefully used in making sentences, and he used the word" test pressure "instead of directly saying" retaliation. "

"Of course —" Grant did not reject Li Mu's request. If Grant still wants to succeed in reelection, then Grant must unite all the forces that may be united as much as possible. Li Mu and Steed Group are obviously a very important force, although Steed Group It is not yet an independent political force, but the energy of Junma Group cannot be underestimated.

What Li Mu wants is Grant's promise. As long as Grant allows Li Mu to take revenge on Japan to a certain extent, Li Mu will have a way to make the Japanese feel uncomfortable.

Now Japan is not very powerful. The Japanese government has not even annexed North Korea. Therefore, Japan relies heavily on the United States for the Meiji Restoration.

Such as Japanese steel.

Japan is a resource-poor country. Their steel cannot be self-sufficient and can only rely on imports to maintain domestic steel demand. The United States is Japan's largest steel importer.

Japan ’s steel imports from the United States are not iron ore, but are used ships that have been phased out and are about to be dismantled. The Japanese rely on these old ships from the United States to support Japan ’s Meiji industrial structure step by step at night. reform.

At the economic level, it is Li Mu ’s world. The most frequent trade with Japan is the Vanderbilt family. Li Mu only called William Vanderbilt and immediately caused the Vanderbilt family to tear up with the Japanese. Contract.

Of course, if you want to tear up the contract, you have to pay the price. The price paid by Li Mu is the patent of Junma Automobile Factory. The Vanderbilt family's automobile factory has now been put into production. The parts used for assembling cars are imported from Junma Automobile Factory. Vanderbilt originally could only be BMW cars, and Li Mu did not want to open the technology of the phantom car to the Vanderbilt family, but now in order to terminate the cooperation between the Vanderbilt family and the Japanese, Li Mu also had to make concessions.

If the money is gone, you can make more money. As long as you can delay the rise of Japan, Li Mu would rather earn less money. If this does not allow the Qing Empire to defeat Japan in the Sino-Japanese War of the Sino-Japanese War, then Li Mu has nothing to say.

The economic crackdown alone is not enough. Li Mu wants to contain the Japanese in all directions. As long as Li Mu's scope of influence, Li Mu absolutely does not allow the Japanese to have any chance to make a fortune.

One day in September, the Organizing Committee of the New York City Government's Independent Centennial Exhibition and the Japanese Consulate in New York Watanabe roared more than once: "We have paid the corresponding fees for participating in the Independent Centennial Exhibition, and the venue of the National Pavilion has been selected. Even the raw materials for the construction of the National Exhibition Hall have entered the market. Now, in a word, the construction of the National Exhibition Hall will stop, and our Great Japanese Empire will lose its qualification to participate in the 100-year independent exhibition. Is this your attitude towards friends? If you do n’t give me a statement today, I will go to Washington tomorrow. If Washington does not give me a satisfactory answer, then I will be in front of the Presidential Palace in Washington, and let the whole world know what your United States is. Treat bumps-"

Watanabe's anger was overwhelming. Just two hours ago, the New York City government notified the Japanese Consulate in New York that the Organizing Committee of the New York Independence Centennial Exhibition will stop the construction of the Japanese National Pavilion, reclaim the construction land of the National Pavilion, and cancel the Japanese government. Invitation.

This news is nothing less than a sunny day for Watanabe. Since the Meiji Restoration, all nations in Japan have been looking forward to raising their international pressure and rebuilding the prestige of the Japanese Empire. The Japanese government also attaches great importance to this independent century exhibition. I took this exhibition as a window to show Japan to the western society, trying to show the results of the Meiji Restoration of Japan to the western society and improve Japan's international status, but I did not expect that the New York City government has stopped the Japanese government's participation in the exhibition. The matter could not be resolved perfectly, I am afraid that the only way left in front of Watanabe is to go through the laparotomy.

"Mr. Watanabe, I regret to inform you that because of some actions of your government, you violated the principle of fairness and impartiality and have no contractual spirit, so the Organizing Committee of the Independent Centennial Exhibition decided to terminate the participation of the Japanese government. There is an objection to this decision, then you can go to Washington to appeal, but I want to remind you that this result cannot be changed unless you fully realize your mistakes and correct your behavior— "Director of the Organizing Committee of the Independent Century Exhibition William Maxwell Evacs righteousness.

William Maxwell Evac, this is a name that all Chinese should remember.

In 1849, William M. Evac became assistant district attorney for the Southern District of New York. It was during this period that Evac developed a strong interest in politics and began to enter politics. In July 1868, Evac was appointed to the post of Attorney General of the United States. In 1876, Evac assisted Rutherford Burr. After Chad Hayes ran for president, after Hays was successfully elected as the 19th US President, in order to repay Evatz for his hard work, he appointed him as Secretary of State.

It was during his tenure as Secretary of State of the United States that Evac enacted the infamous China Exclusion Act.

It is worth mentioning that Evac is a Bostonian. In the strict sense, Evac and Li Mu are regarded as fellow citizens-

If the United States has a "township", then.

Of course, that was Evac in the past. Now Evac is not hostile to Li Mu himself. At least Evac did not show it, so when Arthur instructed Evac to terminate the Japanese government ’s participation in the 100-year independent exhibition. When qualifying, Evac did not hesitate to execute Arthur's order.

"The principle of fairness and justice? The spirit of the contract? Mr. William, what do you mean?" Watanabe's letter hadn't understood what was going on.

"God, have you forgotten what your government did? Well, I will remind you once because of some of your government's actions, you have hurt the core interests of a large New York company, so you deserve punishment. Is this enough to understand? "William Evac was not angered. This is also a determined nationalist, not only against the Chinese, but also the Japanese, and all people of color.

I have to say that Li Mu is very correct to join U.S. nationality. At least Li Mu is no longer on William Evac's hate list. Li Mu is now an American, also a Springfield, a Massachusetts, but also a New York University Entrepreneurs, under the aura of blessings, made William Evac have to respect Li Mu.

"The big company in New York-you mean the Steed Group?" Watanabe knew afterwards.

"Yes, that is the Steed Group, and see what you have done? We New Yorkers are not so bullying. If you want to get some technology, then you go through the normal way, otherwise you will not be able to do it-" William · Evacs was so loud that he hadn't forgotten to emphasise it at this point: "At least in New York!"

Ah, local protectionism is great.
