Thomas Clement DuPont, one of the three giants of American DuPont company and now the president of DuPont company, looked at the tall Germanic people on both sides with a smile.

They came to welcome their own side.

Thomas came to Germany this time. It was only a normal business transaction. It was normal for the German i.g. faben company to receive them. However, he didn't expect that even the German head of state received him during the war!

Now, this is the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, the head of Germany and the master of the European continent. Here, give a banquet in honor of him!

There was a red carpet on the ground. At the end of the carpet, Shrek and his wife were welcoming American visitors.

"Welcome to Germany, Mr. Thomas." In terms of age, Thomas is more than 20 years older than Shrek, but in terms of status, Shrek is absolutely superior.

At this time, sirik lowered his posture and naturally won Thomas's favor.

Sherick's wife also warmly welcomed Thomas's wife. There seemed to be more topics to talk between women.

"It's a great honor." Thomas said: "now, Germany is already the most powerful country on the European continent. We are very interested in doing business with such a country."

Thomas couldn't help remembering that he didn't care about this little guy when Shrek first landed in the United States more than ten years ago, but now he has become the head of the Empire.

Now, France is obviously going to lose. Germany defeated its old enemy France, which is the most powerful existence on the European continent.

"DuPont is unique in the field of chemical industry." "We also have great admiration for DuPont. I believe we have more fields to cooperate with," shirek said

The two sides sat down and the negotiations began in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

Starting from the production of gunpowder, DuPont has gradually become a large company in the global chemical field. There are many products subordinate to DuPont, which are of interest to Germany.

For example, synthetic rubber technology and nylon technology.

In 1930, DuPont researchers Arnold Collins and Wallace Carothers invented a general synthetic rubber neoprene.

In 1935, researchers Gerald Burchett and Wallace- Rothers invented nylon, a new "synthetic silk". After years of intensive development, nylon was finally displayed to the public at the 1939 New York World Expo.

Both technologies are necessary for Germany.

Germany lacks many resources, rubber is one of them, and Chirac's pursuit of rubber is also tireless.

After Chirac's trip to the East, he obtained rubber from China and Southeast Asia. There are many rubber parks operated by overseas Chinese, which can be regarded as a temporary solution to the problem, but it is still risky.

After all, the East is too far away. Germany's ocean transportation is at risk of being cut off.

Rubber is different from other resources, such as iron ore. you can save more, but rubber is not enough.

Because the storage life of natural rubber is limited, it is abandoned in only one year.

Germany has solved the problem to a certain extent. Faben, an important German chemical enterprise, has developed the reclaimed rubber technology: that is, the chemical method is used to chemically treat the waste natural rubber that has become waste rubber and expired rubber, so as to obtain 70-80% of the reclaimed rubber with the function of natural rubber.

However, these alone are not enough. It is also necessary to use chemical technology to synthesize rubber from oil.

Anyway, now, Germany doesn't have to worry about oil. There is a lot of oil, and synthetic rubber is OK.

On the other hand, nylon, in addition to being used as raw materials for clothes, parachutes, aircraft tire cord fabrics, etc., are widely used. Moreover, through the injection molding process, it can replace steel, iron, copper and other metals with plastics. It is an important engineering plastic, which can be applied to various mechanical equipment to greatly reduce the consumption of non-ferrous metals.

In history, DuPont sold these things to Germany. Now, why not?

Xierik's hospitality of this level and specification has been psychologically accepted by the other party. Then, from the perspective of businessmen, he moved the other party with interests.

"We admire the technology developed by you very much. We hope to get these technologies. No matter how high your price is, we can accept them." At this time, Chirac is like a wronged leader: "in addition, we can cooperate and produce together. For example, you can form a joint company with our French company. The base can be set up in France. Our army has a lot of orders."

Founded in 1904, faben company has a cooperative relationship with three German chemical, pharmaceutical and dye companies, and then joined five companies.

In August 1925, under the proposal of Bosch, eight companies formally formed faben company, namely "dye industry interest group", and Bosch served as the chairman of the board of directors.

In the vigorous social activities of Hitler, faben company supported Hitler and provided large grants to help him run for election.

After mastering the power of Germany, faben also obtained huge returns.

At present, the main monopoly capital in Germany includes Krupp, United Steel, Ig faben, Siemens and Electric Corporation, and faben has achieved rapid development.

Especially in war. Historically, Ig France produced a large number of synthetic fuels and synthetic rubber, which was the main logistics support of the German war.

Therefore, some Americans even said, "if there were no IG Farben company, there would be no Hitler's war".

At the same time, faben company also received high returns. Ig faben company will take the chemical plant there as its own every time the German army conquers an area.

Now, xierik's attitude has been very clear. If DuPont is willing to sell these technologies, DuPont also has a share in those chemical plants in Paris!

France is an important industrial country with many chemical plants. If DuPont can get involved there, it will get more benefits! Even if there is no military order, just civilian, it is enough for them to make a lot of money.

Thomas had no possibility of rejecting such a proposal.

"We are willing to cooperate with Germany to expand our business." Said Thomas.

He came here this time to do business. Now, why not do what is good for both sides?
