It must be said that sometimes, war is the best form of propaganda.
Just like during World War II, the United States, through the war, sold a large amount of weapons, equipment and various strategic materials. In addition, its homeland was not affected by the war, so it quickly emerged from the Great Depression and replaced Britain as the most powerful capitalist country.
Following the Falklands War, the impression that Chinese goods are durable and reliable spread throughout the world, along with various reports about the war.
This is much more effective than those expensive advertisements and celebrity endorsements.
After all, these advertisements may not reach the whole world, and the viewers will know that they are advertisements.
But this is a real war!
Even the British chose Chinese-made off-road vehicles, which performed exceptionally well during the war, helping British soldiers escape death or pursue the enemy on numerous occasions.
Even after the Falklands War ended, many British soldiers interviewed by American and European media expressed that upon returning to Britain, the first thing they would do was use their bonuses to buy a Dragon Guard off-road vehicle from China, saying that it had become like family to them and that they would only drive this model from now on.
With a whoosh!
Originally, its international sales were only on par with Land Rover, but now, thanks to the Falklands War, Dragon Guardian has suddenly become a world-class brand.
The first to respond was the Middle East, where sales were already quite good. In the past, the Middle East sold about 5,000 to 10,000 Dragon Guard vehicles a year. However, after the Falklands War began, sales in the Middle East doubled.
Secondly, there are many wealthy people in the United States! As soon as they saw how powerful Dragon Guard was, they placed orders one after another. The distributors in the United States were overjoyed and placed orders with China like crazy.
Then there are wealthy people in South America such as Mexico and Argentina, as well as various African countries. In Europe, the demand for off-road vehicles is relatively low, and sales are not as good as in Africa.
All these factors combined resulted in the export of 150,000 Longweishi vehicles in 1983 alone.
Can you believe it? Back in the 1980s, China already had a car model that could export over 100,000 units a year.
Lin Huowang didn't know what others thought, but he himself felt incredibly proud and honored!
Finally... this world, reborn with him, has become very different, and the backbone of the Chinese people has truly straightened.
Moreover, after two years of development, electric bicycles have become popular all over the world, especially in smaller countries, where they have become a low-cost mode of transportation.
In 1983, the total number of electric bicycles manufactured in China exported worldwide exceeded one million.
There are other industrial products as well. Along with Lin Huowang's Hongkong Land Group in Hong Kong Island, Longteng Group in Japan, and Longpai Group in China, he has introduced many industrial systems to the country, along with the continuous investment and output of his own research institute.
We have also made progress in the export of clothing, small commodities, and other chemical products almost ten years ahead of schedule.
China's GDP doubles every year, a rate of economic development that has drawn worldwide attention.
As a result, the United States, which had previously been rather ambiguous about its attitude towards our country, has long since begun to take precautions against us.
Books such as "The China Threat Theory," which were originally expected to appear ten years later, were published in the United States at the end of 1983 due to the butterfly effect of Lin Huowang's work, and caused quite a stir.
Lin Huowang was also highly vigilant about this, and he absolutely could not let Western countries realize that China was a threat too early.
However, if we spend money now to appease and contain them, wouldn't that be like protesting too much? It would only provoke a backlash from the American public.
so……
The best approach, of course, is to guide rather than block. He directly spent a lot of money to hire more bestselling ghostwriters to start conceiving and publishing even more explosive books.
That is...
The Japan Threat Theory
The German Threat Theory
The Soviet Threat Theory
Even the "alien threat theory"!
Especially now that Japan's economy is taking off at an even faster pace, its size is more than ten times that of China, and it is indeed having a devastating impact on the current American automobile and electronics industries. Therefore, Lin Huowang has spent tens of millions of US dollars to have people write many best-selling books about the Japanese threat.
For example, titles like "Japan Can Say No," "Defeated Nations Don't Believe in Tears," "Enduring Hardship, Japan and the United States Will Eventually Fight," and "Buying America: Japan's Alternative Revenge"...
And can you believe it? A large portion of these book buyers are Japanese Americans, and these books even sell very well in Japan itself.
By this time, the Japanese had become so arrogant that they genuinely believed they could challenge the United States and were no longer America's lackeys.
Therefore, when they see these books praising Japan and promoting the "Japan threat" theory, they don't see anything wrong with it. In fact, they think it's the truth, a symbol of their growing power, which is why these American authors are afraid of the threat posed by Japan's rise.
In this way, the little bit of the China threat theory that had just been hyped up was immediately submerged in the wave of the Japan threat theory.
Before we knew it, the calendar had turned to the summer of 1984.
This year was absolutely a year of triumph and even a year of earth-shaking change for China.
