Agriculture Maniac

Chapter 418: Five Years Is Not Too Late for a Gentleman's Revenge

Mad cow disease, also known as mad cow disease, was first discovered in England in 1985.

There was no cure then, or now, so more than 500 million beef cattle were burned that year.

But this did not stop the spread of mad cow disease.

The first human infection occurred in 95.

In 99, a large-scale outbreak occurred, affecting America and Australia.

In 02, England killed and burned nearly 3.5 million sick cows, involving farms and causing losses of over tens of billions of pounds.

In October 03, more than 10 sick cows suddenly appeared in North America, including more than a hundred human infections, and the spread was very rapid. However, the three major fleets gathered in the Asia-Pacific region, and federal capital blocked the news for the sake of beef exports.

In December, the news that mad cow disease in North America evolved into 'mad cow disease', which means crazy and uncontrollable, was just reported.

The reason why there is no beef involved in the epidemic in the East at present is, as Yu Yang mentioned before, that consumers who like imported products should really thank the Eastern Customs, as they are the ones who block 99% of the problems outside the country.

As for mad cow disease, Sanyuan Hi-Tech, Sanyuan Pharmaceutical, Grain-Fed Beef, and Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau also jointly dispatched scientific research teams to set up laboratories in the European epidemic area, hoping to find the cause or develop a specific drug.

But there are too many things involved.

For example, prions are infectious factors that are not strictly considered viruses, do not contain nucleic acids, and are only composed of proteins.

For example, after humans were infected, they evolved into kuru disease and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. They are essentially different from Alzheimer's disease, but the symptoms are very similar and cannot be reversed.

For example, feed → world grain traders, disinfection and vaccines → world pharmaceutical companies, slaughter and sales → local capital, the negative impact is not conducive to exports → countries, and too many interests are involved.

As a result, people who spontaneously conducted research on mad cow disease, including their assistants and lawyers, were killed.

Therefore, the three laboratories only mastered the method of "rapidly detecting beef involved in the epidemic" to facilitate testing by customs and consumers.

These methods include electron microscopy, reagents, immunochemistry, pathological tissue observation, etc., no less than thirty types.

Among them, AI comparative observation and optical analysis have been transplanted to the three series of handheld game consoles, becoming an application that uses cameras and lights to check the safety and quality of meat.

Previously, this feature was considered useless by many consumers.

But now, the three series of handheld game consoles may need to make another push for sales.

As for the Persian earthquake...
It is time for the world's grain traders to look for resources... no, it is time to express goodwill to the outside world.

Yu Yang immediately contacted Li Changnian, general manager of Sanyuan Agriculture, and asked him to personally take the relief supplies to Persia.

After finishing the call, he looked at the information about mad cow disease and suddenly remembered Federal Capital's attack on Sanyuan Milk Powder.

At that time, Sanyuan Agriculture had not yet entered the dairy industry and focused on various types of soy powder. Then it was comprehensively suppressed by the Smith family.

First, he used the Eastern companies he controlled to make employees of foreign companies spread rumors everywhere.

What tastes good is when there are too many additives, just like adding too much MSG when cooking.

The production workshop is dirty and messy, and the production workers urinate and defecate in the raw material area.

Although Smith Capital hit the wrong person, Sanyuan Dairy, which was not one of the three series of enterprises at the time, was almost finished. It was then acquired by Sanyuan Agriculture and renamed SY Medical Amino Acid Powder.

But SY is now its own brand, and its international market is limited to niche areas such as amino acids and hydrolyzed protein milk powder.

Mad cow disease now breaks out in North America...

Yu Yang immediately came up with a bad idea and contacted the Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau.

···
Austin, Texas.

"Persia has rejected our assistance."

Old Bu waved his hand to show that he understood and motioned for his assistant to get busy.

There are a large number of factions within Persia that are close to North America. The sudden toughness this time is nothing more than the Iraq War and the Caucasus incident, which made the local forces in West Asia feel threatened. They had to forcefully clean up a group of senior officials close to North America and control the right to speak.

It's not a big deal.

After all, politics is cyclical.

As the factions that oppose North America make Persia poorer and poorer, more groups that oppose them and become closer to North America will naturally emerge.

What’s worrying Old Bu now is mad cow disease.

On the surface, mad cow disease only affects North American beef exports.

But in reality, farmers, transportation chains, slaughtering chains, feed chains, and related investment chains... will all be affected.

In other words, even though North America only exported 191 billion US dollars worth of beef last year, the economic benefits it brought were x10, or even x20 if expanded to the financial sector.

Therefore, this mad cow disease will at least cause economic losses of nearly 2000 billion US dollars to North America.

The financial economy of North America is already facing serious problems. Next, stocks of livestock, feed, transportation, etc. plummeted.

After the stock market crash, where will the money flow to?
EU, A shares, Hong Kong stocks...

It is equivalent to bleeding yourself and fattening the enemy.

For this purpose, Old Bull contacted Old Smith.

Now both parties are on the same boat, with common interests, so there is no need to beat around the bush.

"I hope your Commissioner Smith can purchase a large amount of beef from the East, and then secretly transport it back using the North American Ocean Shipping Group's cargo ships to fill the gap in the North American beef market."

Old Smith thought so too, "But countries around the world have openly banned the import of our beef."

"In this world, we have the right to speak. At least Japan, Canada and Australia will be the first to lift the ban. As long as more and more countries determine that our exported beef does not contain the virus, the remaining countries will naturally gradually open their markets."

"Yu Sanyuan's grain-fed beef business has been developing for four years and has become the largest in the East. He will definitely not miss this great opportunity to leak the news of our beef purchase and make grain-fed beef popular around the world."

"The Eastern market is large enough. Even if the scale of grain-fed beef is expanded 10 times, it is still far from meeting local demand, not to mention the Southeast Asian market. So we can sacrifice some other interests to shut him up."

"What interests should I sacrifice? I don't want to pay for it alone."

“Automotive manufacturing.”

Old Smith fell silent after hearing this.

Strictly speaking, there are only two major automakers in North America.

One GM, one Ford.

In the past decade, the Smith family has become increasingly powerful, even supporting Kling to become the general manager of North America. Ford was certainly suppressed, including being blocked from entering the Eastern market. As a result, General Motors became the monopolist in the North American automobile industry, with annual sales of 810 million vehicles.

In contrast, Ford's sales volume was 640 million last year, but this year it was suppressed by the OEM production of the three-series and fell below 500 million vehicles.

假设每100万辆汽车，代表200亿美刀销售额，以及5%~15%的利润、30%炒股收益。

General Motors can create nearly 500 billion US dollars in wealth for the Smith family every year.

This is real money, not assets or equity.

And after adopting the three-series OEM, the profit ratio will increase, sales will increase, and wealth will be greater.

Old Smith said in a deep voice: "Old Bull, if you really want to cooperate, you shouldn't always keep your eyes on my pocket!"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. What I meant is that we can expand the scale of the Sanjie OEM business and hand over more car manufacturing business to Sanjie companies."

"You take me for a fool. If I fall out with Yu Sanyuan one day, my cousin's General Motors will be finished."

"We can use BlackRock and Pioneer to persuade Japanese automakers to use the San-Series as their OEM. In this way, when we turn against Yu San-yuan, Japanese automakers will suffer, which will benefit GM and Ford. And we can use this as a bargaining chip to deal with the negative impact of mad cow disease."

“Very good advice.”

"The most important thing is that the Far East Trading Company has hoarded a large amount of resources. If we hand over automobile manufacturing to the three-series companies, they will quickly consume these resources and reduce the production of tanks, aircraft and other weapons. Our blockade of Asia Pacific will make it difficult for the Far East Trading Company to obtain resources. This will be beneficial to the stability of Asia Pacific."

"Makes sense!"

"If you agree, we can manipulate the two major capitals to control the Japanese automobile industry."

"no problem."

The two were chatting about this and were about to hang up the phone when they received a message almost at the same time.

Just now.

Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau published an important scientific research report: According to research, although the milk produced by cows with mad cow disease will not spread the mad cow disease pathogen (prion), this type of milk contains abnormal protein. Our bureau has conducted long-term research and tracking on this abnormal protein and discovered that it has a hidden factor.

Humans, especially the elderly and infants, who consume dairy products such as milk and milk powder containing this latent factor for a long time will stimulate a specific immune molecule in the brain, central nervous system, and digestive system, just like artificial vaccination of bacteria, vaccines, toxoids, immunoglobulins, etc., enabling the body to gain the ability to resist infection against "abnormal proteins."

However, this immune system that fights infection will change the brain medulla, stiffen the central nervous system, and weaken the digestive system, and the changes are gradual and irreversible.

This can cause the consumer to suffer from mental rigidity, mental distraction, muscle spasms, slow movements...

If one day you suddenly find that time passes very quickly and you haven't done anything, but the day just goes by, and your body starts to become clumsy, you might as well think carefully about whether you have consumed milk from mad cow disease.

Because this is a manifestation of rigid thinking and distraction.

In other words, you often get distracted and miss too much time.

Let me reiterate here: capital will not tell you the truth, but Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau can.

"Fuck!" x2
Old Bu and Old Smith immediately entered the secondary root server set up by Sanyuan Communication Network in California and activated the shielding mechanism.

It's a pity it's too late.

The scientific research report has been transmitted to users of all three series of handheld game consoles.

···
Los Angeles.

The second game of the NBA regular season, Rockets vs. Lakers, is about to begin.

Fans from all over the West gathered around the Stadia Center, waiting to enter.

Suddenly, a dark-skinned man took out the three-series handheld game console he had just bought.

He likes the military style and the cool monochrome green screen.

What fascinated him even more was that it solved his problem of illiteracy.

Just like the federal newspaper. The content on it may be important or not.

But every time he wanted to find a part-time job, he had to ask someone to help him read the recruitment information above.

With the 3-series handheld game console, he only needs to turn on the camera, scan the newspaper issue number, and then speak what he wants into the microphone.

AI will then play recruitment information and even help analyze feasibility.

What's more, based on his current situation, we search the entire Internet to help him find a part-time job he likes.

So Odom got rid of the dilemma of sleeping all day, moved into a single room, and got a bicycle.

It can be said that the three series of handheld game consoles are his gods.

This also shows how popular the three series of handheld game consoles are in North America.

Can 3G or a mobile phone help you solve your problems? Can it save you from sleeping on the street? Can it fill your stomach? Can it help you get a job, become a CEO, or marry a beautiful, rich woman?
both are not!
But the three series of handheld game consoles can!

And now, the three-series handheld game console began to broadcast the feasibility study report of Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau...

"Fuck the capitalists. No wonder I feel more and more tired lately."

Soon, more angry curses were heard all around.

"No wonder I've been getting sleepier lately."

"No wonder I always like to sleep lately."

"No wonder I keep getting cramps lately..."

"protest!"

"protest!!!"

In less than two hours, swarms of people swept through major cities in North America like a tide.

For a time, dairy companies suffered one after another.

North American time, noon on December 12th.

States across North America have successively shut down their three-way communications networks.

In an instant, the three series of handheld game consoles became feature phones.

After a brief silence, major cities in North America were boiling and in an uproar.

"They took away my right to read and write!"

"They made it impossible for me to show off to my mother."

"I have lost my future and I have lost God!"

"Kill them!"

Ta-ta-ta...

···
Wharton, White House.

Xiaobu is being interviewed by reporters.

The topic is how to effectively control mad cow disease.

Just then, a shoe flew over.

Although Xiaobu was agile and dodged it in the blink of an eye, he could hear a wave of angry protests in his ears.

Mad beef, Mad milk powder, restoration of Sanyuan communication network...

Xiaobu was confused, "What happened?"

The assistant spread his hands and said, "I don't know either."

···
In the western suburbs of Tai City, there is the Guardian of the Wheat Field, referred to as MT Company.

The girls were divided into four groups, some training the robots to recognize wooden boards, some training the robots to avoid obstacles, and some training the robots to mop the floor...

Yu Yang put on a helmet with eyepieces, transformed himself into an electrical engineer, and assembled an electronic scale.

This electronic scale can automatically identify three series of products and most external products.

For example, supermarkets.

After the logistics department purchases and stores the goods from the trade hall, there is no need to scan the code. Just set the price in the background and the goods can be put on the supermarket shelves.

When the customer takes the item and goes to the checkout counter to pay, there is also no need to scan the code. The electronic scale will identify the type of product, the backend pricing, and give a price tag.

Then comes weighing.

The price of watermelons is set in the supermarket backend. In the past, the cashier would tap on the keyboard, select the watermelon, choose the unit price, and then weigh it.

Now put the watermelon on the smart electronic scale, it will intelligently prompt 'watermelon', 'unit price', and 'total price'.

The entry threshold and workload for cashiers are lowered.

Then there is the payment system.

The electronic scale is connected to the trade hall - World UnionPay. Any consumer holding an employee card, an off-site ID card, or a three-series handheld game console can make payments using the random QR code given by the monochrome green screen.

You can use a savings account or a debit card.

There is.

In supermarkets, there are many strange customers who will first pick a small watermelon, print a price tag, then stick the price tag on a large watermelon, and then pay and leave with the large watermelon.

This electronic scale can effectively avoid similar operations.

After Yuyang assembly is completed, the quotation will be differentiated according to the specifications, intelligence level, number of functions and weighing limit.

Home electronic scales:
Ordinary version of 98 red banknote.

With height measurement 198 red notes.

Commercial electronic scales:
Small 398 red notes, upper weighing limit 100kg.

Medium 598 red notes, upper weighing limit 200kg.

Large 998 red banknotes, maximum weighing capacity 300kg.

Extra-large 1998 red banknotes, with a maximum weighing limit of 500kg.

"Come on, come on, let's take a look at my first invention, how about that?"

The little girls immediately gathered around.

Wait till you understand the function.

"Boss, what's wrong with your brain? How can you think of these things?"

"Buddha said, don't say it."

Yu Yang said, selecting three smart, sweet-voiced, and flexible girls, "Wait for me to print out the flyers, and you three will go out with the boss lady to promote the business. You will be the marketing managers in the future."

"Good boss!"

"What about us?" The remaining few were eager to try.

"You will follow me to purchase spare parts, discuss the OEM line, and become product managers in the future."

"yeah!"

Everyone was very motivated.

Suddenly.

The light at the door dimmed, and Lao Ren, who had not been seen for a long time, walked in, looking around.

"Sanyuan, what kind of business are you planning to start?"

"future!"

"???"

Seeing the girls all showing their curiosity, Yu Yang said, "Come on, this is Grandpa Ren from our village. He controls the financial power of the village. If anyone bullies you in the future, call Grandpa Ren and I will use money to beat them to death."

A little girl suddenly realized, "Village accountant?"

"You can say that."

Seeing that Yu Yang was getting more and more outrageous, Lao Ren was afraid that the question of who was the village chief would be brought up, so he quickly pulled him aside and said, "There's a call from North America, saying they want to talk about the automotive industry."

"How to talk?"

"Let us take over all the OEM work for Japanese cars."

"Are they still asleep?"

"What do you mean?"

"Look at European cars. They all use our OEM products, but they are killing people without mercy. We are not begging them to do this. They are begging us. If the Japanese don't pay something back, we will definitely not agree."

"Yes, the problem is that it can solve employment problems, so there is no need for us to be picky."

Yu Yang nodded, "And then?"

“Then you export beef here.”

"I'll have to think about it."

"why?"

"We don't even have enough to eat ourselves, how can we supply it to the outside world?"
