Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Lin Yuan smiled "hehe" and said, "Not only will we not be able to deliver the goods, but we may not even be able to pay liquidated damages."

Erics was so angry that his eyebrows trembled, and he said, "You neither performed the contract nor paid liquidated damages. Aren't you playing rogue?"

Lin Yuan pointed at the chair with a smile, and said, "Calm down, please sit down, please sit down, please listen to me slowly, in fact, we did not deliver the goods on schedule for your own good."

Erics was about to explode when he heard this. He suppressed his anger and said, "What are you talking about? Do you know how much your failure to deliver on schedule will adversely affect our production and sales plans? You are still unwilling to pay Liquidated damages! You still say it’s for our own good, but thanks to you, China still claims to be a country of etiquette!”

When Erics said this, he was too angry to speak, Lin Yuan smiled and said: "Don't be angry, listen to me slowly, if I guess correctly, these aluminums are going to be made into aluminum cans. Put Coca-Cola in an aluminum can and sell it?"

Alex said: "Of course, is there any other use?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "If this is the case, you should not sell it, and you will definitely lose money by then."

Erics said, "What did you say? How did you know we were going to lose money?"

Lin Yuan replied: "You know the sales performance of Coca-Cola in China. It's not very good. At least it can't meet your expectations. Don't you want to know the reason?"

Erics was surprised when he heard Lin Yuan's words, and thought to himself: "How does this person know that our grades are not good?" Clearly, Coca-Cola is not as prosperous as it was later in the United States.

Lin Yuan said: "Let me tell you, your company doesn't pay attention to appearance, and this is your crux." Lin Yuan pointed to a bottle in the cabinet and asked, "That's your bottle. Coca-Cola, right?"

Erics nodded, and Lin Yuan walked over and took it over. The bottle is made of glass, almost like a short, thick bucket with no aesthetics at all, and there is even the Coca-Cola logo on the bottle. No, just a smiley logo printed on the cap.

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Tell me about such an ugly thing. If you were a commoner, would you buy it?"

Erics said: "Why not? What the people want is the drink in the bottle, not the bottle itself. What's the use of making the bottle look so good?"

Lin Yuan sighed helplessly, and said, "Look at this." As he spoke, Lin Yuan took out something from his bag. When Erics saw that thing, his eyes lit up, and he asked Said: "What is this? There is our Coca-Cola logo on it?"

It turned out that what Lin Yuan took out was a Coca-Cola beverage can of his era, which was made of aluminum. The background color of the can was bright red, and the white words "Coca-Cola" were elegant and elegant. Eric's eyeball.

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "This is a new type of aluminum can that I carefully designed for your company. Look, is it much more beautiful than your original bottle? If the public sees such a bottle in the shop window, will it be Would you be curious to buy a can and taste it?"

In this era, products do not pay attention to the appearance, so both cars and daily necessities give people a rough and ugly feeling. As for the rise of industrial design and start to attract people's attention, it will take until the 30s, and Lin Yuan The cans he brought were the brainchild of countless top designers, and the shock to Erics was no less than an atomic bomb exploding in front of him.

Alex played with the jar and asked, "Is this thing made of aluminum? Why is the red color so bright on it? I've never seen it before. How did you get this color of paint out?"

Lin Yuan thought: "To make beautiful colors requires an advanced chemical industry, how can you make these colors?"

Lin Yuan did not answer his question, but smiled and said, "How is it? Is this good? If it is good, we will postpone the delivery for three months. We will produce this kind of jar for you. What do you think?"

When Erics saw this pot, it was like seeing a treasure. He thought to himself: "It is not impossible to achieve anything in China. At least I got such a delicate pot. The beautiful color on it is enough to make countless people willingly buy it Out of pocket."

So Erics said: "I personally like this jar very much, but I have no right to decide on the postponement of the contract. I need to report to the domestic company. If they agree, I will definitely have nothing to say."

Lin Yuan said: "Okay then, you should ask the head office for instructions as soon as possible, I'm leaving."

Lin Yuan said he got up and wanted to leave, but Alex immediately stood up and asked to stay, saying: "Your design level is very high, I hope we can cooperate more in the future."

Lin Yuan could see from Erics' expression that he had already been persuaded by himself, so Lin Yuan nodded, came out of the house, and returned to the aluminum factory. As soon as he arrived at the aluminum factory, a young engineer left He came over and said to him: "Captain, an American is looking for you."

Lin Yuan asked: "American? Who is it?"

The engineer said, "He didn't say anything. He heard that you were here, so he waited for you here."

Lin Yuan nodded and came to the reception room. He recognized the person inside at a glance. It was the inventor of alternating current - Nikola Tesla.

Seeing Lin Yuan coming in, Tesla stood up and said, "I have completed the hydrological survey of the Songhua River, and the engineering there is too difficult, so I suggest you build in the Liaohe River."

Lin Yuan replied: "Very well, let's start building in Liaohe."

"I suspect you don't have that kind of engineering capability," Tesla said.

Lin Yuan asked: "Just tell me how much earthwork is expected to be needed?"

Tesla handed a detailed report to Lin Yuan, and said: "I have written the specific figures and construction projects in the report, you can organize people to build."

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, let's build a batch of construction machinery."

Tesla looked at Lin Yuan suspiciously, and said, "As far as I know, the design and construction of construction machinery is an extremely complicated job, and it is impossible for you to do it well without relevant experience."

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. Come with me, and I'll take you to see our latest equipment."

Tesla followed Lin Yuan, walked towards Fengtian, passed through Fengtian City, exited the north gate, and walked a long way. He saw a tall wire on the open space, and people coming and going outside the wire were armed with live ammunition. Tesla asked Lin Yuan: "What kind of place is this?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "This is our arsenal, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter." While speaking, Lin Yuan came to the door. The guard at the door saw Lin Yuan and immediately saluted him. Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Take me to the engineering factory." Mechanical Department."

The guard turned around, picked up the phone in the guard booth and said a few words, after a while, a small car drove out of it, Lin Yuan pointed to the car and said: "This is also our latest development. "

Lin Yuan took the Tesla into the car, and the car drove all the way, and stopped in front of a high wall. Lin Yuan pointed to the front gate with his finger, and said with a smile, "Our construction machinery is inside."
