Era: Beginning from the Modu Translation Studio

Chapter 158 A Rare Forecast

"ah!"

When Jiang Chuan saw the chemistry problem in front of him, he almost fell silent.

The little girl stared wide-eyed, isn't this the chemistry problem in the "Oriental Metropolis Daily" the day before yesterday?

That's right, that's it!

I remember that I also helped Ruhua review it!

Quietly, Jiang Chuan looked at Ying Ruhua who was in the same examination room.

The girl's movements were obviously a beat slower than her own.

Jiang Chuan watched Ruhua's expression change from nervous to surprised.

Then, facing the test paper, he stretched out his hand and covered his little mouth.

Jiang Chuan, who suppressed his mouth and secretly smiled, quickly glanced at the invigilator.

Fortunately, neither teacher noticed them.

acidic, +2.

After filling in the answers steadily, start looking at the next question.

At the same time, Ying Ruhua bit her lip and finished answering the chemistry question that was still fresh in her memory.

The fourth question will not, pass.

Oh, I can't pass it, the second brother said it must be filled.

Then fill in some answers that I think, I think.

Ying Ruhua frowned, as if she didn't have any self-righteous answers.

Chemistry is so difficult!
Liberal arts is better, you can write well without reviewing.

The little girl slowly looked out the window.

That being the case, why not... Ying Ruhua seems to have found a direction in which she can work hard.

Oh yes, still in the exam.

While she was absent, the students in the examination room were filling in the answers one question after another.

One by one concentrated and careful.

Obviously not on the same track as the other two girls who are focusing on participating.

After more than ten minutes, the atmosphere in the examination room was obviously different.

Pure ethanol is added dropwise from Apparatus A, over a red hot copper catalyst...

Why is it an experimental question again?
After several experimental questions in a row, many candidates have already started to take deep breaths.

I seem to have heard this question.

That question... I have never seen it before.

Won't,

empty,

Or not.

As time progressed, many candidates found that they had no way to write.

It's completely different from the usual exam questions.

The whole feeling is the same, strange!

Compared with "difficult", students still have opportunities to think.

But this chemistry test paper is a question type that most candidates have never been exposed to.

One of the boys saw that most of his chemistry test paper was blank.

Couldn't help crying on the spot.

The pattering sound obviously aroused the emotions of other candidates.

The students, who were already anxious, collapsed even more this time.

Compared with the 77th and 78th classes, this year's college entrance examination candidates happened to meet the 79th class chemistry paper that was recorded in history.

The national pass rate dropped from 50% in the first year to just 2%, and the average score was only 19 points.

Many candidates who took the chemistry papers of the previous two years and could achieve 90+ without any effort, could not even reach the passing mark this year.

Can it not crash?
This time, the examination room where Jiang Chuan and Ying Ruhua were located was the same.

Take a deep breath, scratch your hair, wipe your tears...

Frustration, fear, helplessness... came continuously.

With the sweltering weather and chemical effects, everyone was already sweating profusely.

At this moment, Jiang Chuan and Ying Ruhua stared at the examination paper with wide eyes.

Search around like a hunter for familiar knowledge.

While wiping sweat with a small handkerchief, he wrote the questions in a brush,
This question has been reviewed and answered.

That question seems to have seen a similar, write.

Hey, I have seen this experiment process before, but the chemical reaction equation... no.

This situation made other candidates envious.

Alas, top students are different.

Candidates who were also in the same school as the two of them shook their heads.

In the last month, the two girls worked hard on chemistry, but it was really not in vain.

In the examination room of No. [-] Middle School, classmate Xie Ping'an has been suppressing his thumping heart.

Compared with the difficulty of the chemistry test papers in the past two years, compared with the one on the desktop, it is simply a sub-question.

Oh, I can't say that, the one in front of me seems to be a sub-question.

Many question types have appeared in the "Daily Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" column of "Oriental Metropolis Daily".

The chemical experiment questions have been published for a whole month, and what else can I not cover.

There is no guessing question at all, and all the fucking ones are delivered to you.

Students, open your eyes and see!
It's all in the newspaper, just kill it!
The good news is that candidates like Xie Ping'an are not uncommon.

Many people are sticking with the "Oriental Metropolis Daily".

Just when the majority of candidates were emotionally broken, this group of candidates felt gratified that they could become readers of "Oriental Metropolis Daily".

Especially when mourning is everywhere, it's... even more enjoyable.

How much difference can a subject make?whole life!
"It's finally the exam,"

"It's all right now, we can publish math, physics and chemistry exercises normally."

"I never want to open a complaint letter again."

In the Supplement Department of Oriental Metropolis Daily, the editors are relaxed.

In accordance with Editor-in-Chief Jiang's previous request, the control of the "Tiantian Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" column was returned to the Supplement Department from the 7th.

This is the end of the era of boring and single chemical experiment questions.

At 04:30 in the afternoon, candidates walked out of the examination room one after another.

The teachers who had been waiting patiently outside the examination room could tell something was wrong from a distance.

Most of the candidates have a disheartened expression.

Sweat stains were mixed with ink, and some of them were stained with tears.

"what happened?"

"Chemistry . . . chemistry is simply beyond human ability."

"is it hard?"

"I've never seen it before, ah~"

"What about you, Xie Pingan?"

"It's still very simple."

"..."

It didn't take long for the glorious deeds of this year's chemistry exam paper to spread throughout the exam circle.

"Pujiang Daily" dispatched some reporters outside the examination room, and immediately transmitted the news to the editor-in-chief's office of the newspaper.

"Say it again," Wei Yuanxing, who was holding the phone, asked doubtfully, "The chemistry exam is particularly difficult?"

"Several candidates came out crying all the way, but some candidates were quite happy, they said..." the reporter stammered.

"what did they say?"

"...It is said that many of the chemistry questions on the test paper were learned in the "Oriental Metropolis Daily."

"What?" Wei Yuanxing couldn't accept such news, "Oriental Metropolis Daily? I think these kids are confused in the exam."

How could the "Oriental Metropolis Daily" be on the chemistry test paper... and so on.

Editor-in-Chief Wei trembled, as if it was really possible.

Jiang Hai, the little book guy, took the chemistry questions like crazy in the last month, maybe it really made him fool a lot.

Then, the same reporting calls followed one another.

When the phone rang again, Wei Yuanxing was no longer ready to answer it.

I heard before that the "Oriental Metropolis Daily" office has received many complaint letters from readers, and this is great.

Editor-in-Chief Wei smiled wryly and shook his head. He didn't expect him to be the right one.

It is estimated that Jiang Hai is proud of himself for a while!
Editor-in-Chief Wei is a rare predictor.

Supplement Department, News Department, Art Editorial Department of Oriental Metropolis Daily... Including the Advertising Department and the Communications Office, as long as there are departments that can make calls.

They are all busy receiving praise from the people.

Most of the parents and examinees who called in gathered thousands of words into one central idea: "Oriental Metropolis Daily"'s column of mathematics, physics and chemistry is worthy of the true gospel for college entrance examination candidates.

Jiang Shan, who had been waiting outside an examination room in Yanjing, was standing in the crowd listening to messages from all directions.

Well, the trajectory of history hasn't changed much.

The proposition teacher of the high chemistry exam finally made candidates across the country see his true colors.

With the interweaving of various emotions, Jiang Shan quietly walked out of the crowd.

Starting this year, no one would dare to underestimate the teacher who produced the paper.

Teachers who set up certain high school and college entrance examination papers will also become the object of people's attention.

That night, like most of the candidates, Jiang Shan stayed in the guest house and buried himself in the exam.

The next day, the tense college entrance examination continued.

Jiang Shan came to the Beijing office of Pujiang Soda Factory with his overnight achievements.

The factory manager, Xu Tiantian, and Manager Ye from the business department had been waiting there early.

"Chief Jiang," Xu Fengtian held Jiang Shan's hand tightly: "You have worked hard these days."

"What's the matter?" Jiang Shan hurriedly said politely: "You guys have been in the car for so long, are you resting well?"

"It's okay, it's just a matter of sleeping."

"I can rest assured that."

"Chief Jiang, why don't we go to the TV station first and sign the contract?"

"Actually... I have one more thing to report to the two of you."

"What else?"

"Sit down, both of you, and listen to me."

Then, after the two leaders of Happy Coke were seated, Jiang Shan unfolded the picture scroll he had brought.

"The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to win every battle. At present, there are actually two biggest opponents of our Happy Coke in Yanjing. The first one is the local star product, Arctic Ocean Soda."

Three people sat around a desk.

In the sketch unfolded on the table, there is a big white bear standing on a yellow soda bottle.

"This bear has a high status in the eyes of the people of Yanjing." Jiang Shan pointed to the bear and said slowly.

In 1936, the Beiping Ice Factory was requisitioned by the Japanese army as a warehouse.

After liberation, it was classified as state-owned and continued to make ice.

Afterwards, the factory recruited more than 10 workers and began to produce Arctic Popsicles.

At that time, the trademark of White Bear was used.

In 56, the Prime Minister learned that the Watson Company in Pujiang left behind several soda canning production lines when it left.

This was advanced technology at the time.

So he ordered that all be pulled back to Yanjing.

"It was also in that year that the people of Yanjing drank Arctic Ocean soda."

Following Jiang Shan's narration, Director Xu and Manager Ye nodded. It turns out that the Arctic Ocean still has some official background.

"At the end of the 50s, the status of Arctic Ocean soda was unmatched," Jiang Shan was not trying to scare them:
"The awarding ceremony, the award reception, the meal that Sihanouk and his wife ate at the gate of the city all used the Arctic Ocean."

"It's all a state banquet," Xu Fengtian, the director of the factory, immediately said, "We also knew something about it before."

"That's right, special soft drinks for state banquets." Jiang Shan raised his eyebrows and reminded: "The rate of appearance is very high!"

Official endorsement, no one can compare to this advertisement.

Oh!
It took a while for Xu Fengtian and Section Chief Ye to react.

The appearance rate is the most ruthless place in the Arctic Ocean.

I have always thought that the Arctic Ocean, which is a fruit juice soda, is not a big threat to the happiness of my factory's Coke.

However, after Jiangshan's analysis, he, an outsider, still underestimated the enemy.

"Section Chief Jiang, what do you mean by what you said, our Happy Coke must be no match for the Arctic Ocean?"

"It can't be said that, the market, there is competition to make progress."

Otherwise, why should they be "prosperous": "Director Xu, in fact, our biggest competitor of Happy Coke should be Coca-Cola from the United States."

"Coca-Cola, we are too familiar with this," Manager Ye said suspiciously: "But... it can only be sold to foreign guests."

"Before, Coca-Cola was not allowed to enter our country," Jiang Shan tapped the picture and text of Coca-Cola on the desktop:

"He's coming in now, we have to consider every possibility, we can't underestimate the enemy!"

Otherwise, Coca-Cola will become a laborer of Coca-Cola in the future.

"You mean that Coca-Cola will also be sold to the people in the future."

"It's not a possibility, but a certainty," Jiang Shan said with a serious expression, telling the other party that he must take it seriously: "They have never given up on the vast market of our country."

In the late Qing Dynasty, Coca-Cola became a drink for officials to socialize and show off their wealth.

Back then it was called Dutch water.

In 1884, Watsons began to supply soda directly to my country.

"At that time, it was called scorpion chewing wax. How could this broken name have any sales volume. In 1927, a reward of 350 pounds was offered to get the good name of Coca-Cola."

"Then it's easy to sell?"

"How can it be so fast, you have to advertise," Jiang Shan finally got to the point:

"At that time, they invited Ruan Lingyu to be the spokesperson of Coke, and it became popular immediately."

Director Xu Toyota's eyes lit up immediately.

Jiang Shan pretended not to notice: "Multiple production lines are starting up at the same time, isn't the production line of Coca-Cola that used to be used for Arctic Ocean soda now?"

"But I still feel that it is unlikely that the country will let go of American Coke."

"Hehe," Jiang Shan kept smiling, "You know the negotiations between Huami and Huami at the Yanjing Hotel at the end of last year, right?"

"Ok!"

Of course Xu Fengtian knew.

"There was a negotiation in another meeting room, do you know who it was?"

"Who?"

"COFCO and Coca-Cola!"

"what?"

"Compared to the other one, this is a very pleasant negotiation!"

Next year, COFCO wanted to choose a site for Coca-Cola to build a factory in Pujiang, but it was fully resisted by the leaders of Pujiang City.

It's really ugly to scold.

No way, COFCO had to give up its subsidiary company located in Yanjing.

By 1982, COFCO allowed Coca-Cola to sell its "surplus" beverages.

Coca-Cola was already unstoppable.

In 1986, he also won the golden advertising time of "News Network".

"Well, who knows what they agreed on at that time?" Xu Tiantian, who was in a relaxed state before, became silent for a while.

"Coca-Cola definitely has ideas," a comrade in the Beijing office also agreed with Jiangshan's idea: "Otherwise, they wouldn't send free balloons all over the streets during holidays."

"Once the ban is lifted," Jiang Shan said, knocking on the table, "Coca-Cola will be sold nationwide as quickly as possible."

"hiss,"

Director Xu, who was only worried about the Yanjing market before, finally became nervous:

"Chief Jiang, your analysis is correct. Coca-Cola is our factory's biggest competitor."

"Their ambitions are known to the whole world, otherwise they would not have the current market position."

At this time, "Sibili" has not yet come out of Xiangjiang, and the sales volume is not very good.

After changing its name to "Sprite" and entering the mainland market, the life of domestic soft drinks will be even more difficult.

"Chief Jiang,"

Everyone is a smart person, Xu Tiantian certainly understands the purpose of Jiang Shan's words: "Since your analysis is so thorough, you should have thought of countermeasures, right?"
