Silicon Valley

Chapter 500: The ban begins

With such a large number of department stores and supermarkets, it is a difficult task to integrate resources, such as warehouses, vehicle fleets, aircraft fleets, commodity price negotiation, system management, etc., which cannot be solved immediately. Once integrated, though, the advantages are huge.

Let's talk about bargaining power, which can definitely reduce the price of goods to the lowest level. Besides, warehouse management and transportation management, once optimized, can save a lot of cost. Moreover, the opening of an e-commerce self-operated website similar to "Suning Tesco" will have more development potential than traditional e-commerce websites through online and offline promotion!

Henry can also further consolidate its position in the e-commerce field!

At this time, countless manufacturers wanted to contact Henry, hoping to sell products in his department stores or supermarkets. Henry's work mobile phone was about to explode, and a large number of guests came to Williams Manor, and even dozens of Fortune 500 executives came to the door in person to discuss business with Henry.

As the saying goes, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes.

The scale of department stores and supermarkets is huge, and the impact is huge!

Today's Wal-Mart only has more than 4,000 supermarkets, but the total number of Henry's department stores and supermarkets has more than 18,000, 4,000 to 18,000, how terrifying!

If you add Henry's influence in the e-commerce field, then no matter what company, if you want to sell products, you must make friends with Henry!

As time passed, Henry has been busy, taking advantage of scale, cooperating with global merchants, and gaining the greatest bargaining power. Japanese businessmen also frequently show favor to Henry, but they don't know that a huge business storm against Japanese companies is coming...

November 30th came, the weather in California was clear and cloudless, people got up early as usual, had breakfast and went to work.

At 8 o'clock in the morning of the United States, all department stores and supermarkets around the world with the "Williams" logo suddenly removed the products of a large number of well-known Japanese companies such as Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, Sanyo, Toyota, and NEC. , replaced by other companies' products.

At first, people didn't notice anything. However, after someone broke the news on the media and the Internet, it immediately spread throughout the world like a whirlwind.

"What happened, the world's largest Macy's suddenly removed most of the Japanese products?"

"Brazilian department stores have also removed Japanese products from their shelves!"

"The same goes for China's Suning and Gome!"

"Fuck, as long as it is Henry Williams' company, all Japanese products are taken off the shelves! What's the matter?"

"Yeah, did Henry Williams have a fight with Japan? It's crazy, he actually blocked Japanese products all over the world!!!"

"It's amazing, one person wants to overthrow N companies in Japan, it's really awesome, it can be called the "bravery of the overlord" in China!"

"..."

People are very surprised and puzzled at this moment, wondering why Henry Williams removed the products of these Japanese companies from the shelves?

Not long after, various speculations emerged on the Internet.

Most of the guesses are so weird that it makes people laugh and cry. However, some netizens really guessed the truth, saying that Henry may have been attacked by a Japanese company before, and now he is here for revenge!

This point of view was subsequently recognized by more and more netizens. Why did Henry Williams remove these many Japanese products from the shelves? Apart from retaliating against Japanese companies, what else? The other possibilities don't make sense either! Because even in normal commercial competition, it is impossible for this to happen.

After Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba and other companies learned that the products were off the shelves, they immediately held a press conference to protest.

"Henry Williams discriminated against the Japanese and took our products off the shelves for no reason. We strongly protest against this and ask Henry Williams to put our products back on the shelves immediately!"

"Henry Williams relied on his monopoly position to bully others, and asked the law to give us justice!"

...

At this time, the external spokesman of Henry Williams said: "Everything is a normal business activity, because other companies' bids are more appropriate and in line with our company's regulations and image, so this Japanese product was removed from the shelves and replaced with products from other companies!"

However, everyone knows that this is just a high-sounding official explanation, and the truth is definitely not like this...

"Pearl Harbor" was screened in the United States at 7 o'clock that night, and two hours later, at 9 o'clock in the morning Beijing time, "Nanjing-Massacre" was screened in China. Both films are discrediting the image of the Japanese in order to arouse the anger of the people in the victimized countries against it!

The Americans who watched "Pearl Harbor" were filled with righteous indignation at that time, and they cursed before they left the movie theater: "The despicable and shameless Japanese actually attacked Pearl Harbor and killed so many soldiers of our country."

"Yeah, it's really insidious. At that time, our soldiers were still asleep, and they were killed by missiles!"

"The Japanese went to war without declaring it. What's more, before attacking Pearl Harbor, they deliberately sent people to Washington to negotiate and confuse our country!"

"Oh, have you noticed that Japanese characters like 'Mitsui' and 'Mitsubishi' are marked on the Japanese planes, missiles, and warships? It can be seen that these two conglomerates were the accomplices of the Japanese invading army back then!" Someone in the crowd shouted shouted.

"That's right, I saw it too!! I heard that the Mitsui Foundation and the Mitsubishi Foundation both developed through war fortunes during World War II!" another "audience" booed.

"Yes, the hands of these two consortiums must have been stained with the blood of our American soldiers. If you are patriotic, let's boycott Japanese products together!!"

"Yes, boycott Japanese products!!!"

...

If "Pearl Harbor" in the United States is just equivalent to throwing a small stone into the lake and causing waves, then "Nanjing~Massacre" caused a huge wave in China! ! !

Even before the movie was released, it has already caused a lot of repercussions in China. Shooting such a sensitive and heavy movie subject, it is impossible not to attract attention.

This time, in order to encourage everyone to watch "Nanjing~Massacre", the price of the movie ticket is symbolically set at 1 yuan! In addition, when the audience goes to the movies, the movie theater will give away a pack of small tissues so that everyone can wipe away their tears in the movie theater!

On the day of the release, there were huge crowds of people at the gate of the movie ticket. Although the movie ticket didn't make much money, the popcorn, soda drinks and other things sold like crazy, and because of the large flow of people, the surrounding entertainment venues and supermarkets also made a lot of money.

After watching this movie, every Chinese could not help but burst into tears. When they walked out of the screening hall, each of them walked very heavily.

"*** Japanese devils, I want to kill them!!!"

Suddenly, a young angry youth couldn't help roaring. Afterwards, the entire movie theater was in chaos, and all kinds of voices abusing Japan suddenly came and went...
