Chapter 517: Unsolved problems
"Mr. Attorney General, is this investigation a bit hasty?" The Delaware senator suddenly stood up and said to Olney with a bad look. "As far as I know, during the Roosevelt administration, DuPont was conducted. The investigation did not reveal any unfair competition. "
"Oh?" Olney looked at each other with a smile and emphasized, "Dear Mr. Senator, the current president is President Alton Parker. The previous investigation was no problem, it can only represent that there was no problem before. Delegates have no problems now, and I must emphasize that many large companies are very cunning. This was also deeply touched by Minister Knox, so it is not advisable to use previous experience to explain the present. "
If Olney knew there was a saying, you actually used the sword of the previous dynasty to cut the official of the dynasty, he said it directly. Now express the same meaning, don't use the experience of the Roosevelt government, apply the current federal government.
As the Attorney General, I reminded Senators of Delaware, lord, that times have changed.
This kind of rhetoric has been very gunpowder-like, which made the Delaware senator's face change greatly, but there is nothing to blame except for accusing Olney of being rude.
But the Dupont Commonwealth is the most important enterprise in Delaware, and it has its own interests in private. He must at least win some support, and cannot allow Olney to initiate an investigation so easily.
Whether DuPont actually violated antitrust laws has caused a controversy in Congress. Opponents believe that Olney ’s investigation of DuPont is unreasonable, especially the rash investigation of a state ’s pillar enterprises may cause Panic in some big companies.
Olney raised his eyebrows. This kind of ubiquitous objection has become a regular expression in various antitrust law cases. He did not want to answer this question at all, and in fact did not answer it.
The Democrats who support Olney believe that DuPont ’s reputation among companies is not good, or even poor, and that the establishment of the Delaware Stock Exchange and the Delaware State Government ’s It is actually very problematic for some companies to reduce taxes. Can a state government do this?
This has become a discussion of the rights of the federal government and state power. There is no standard for such things. When the Democratic Party is an opposition party, state power is greater than sovereignty. But now that it is the ruling party, it is hoped that the states will respect the authority of the federal government, the **** has changed, and the thinking has also changed.
Because the current form of Congress is the Democratic Party, not to mention that for most Republican lawmakers, it is normal to initiate antitrust investigations. There is no reason to object, and they do not have the relevant interests like Delaware lawmakers. In order to maintain the image of the Republican Party's enlightened and progressive progress, it still adopted a favorable attitude toward the judicial investigation proposed by Olney.
The controversy was only a short time, and Olney achieved his goal easily, and the investigation of DuPont was successfully launched. He had just come over for regular reporting, and it was not necessary to get his consent.
The Ministry of Justice already has some investigation files about DuPont. As for which enthusiastic citizens these files were handed over to the Ministry of Justice, a slave owner who led social progress in New Orleans sneezed for no reason. As for whether the investigation files are true, as a law-abiding citizen, the slave owner does not know about the Ministry of Justice and DuPont.
"Oh, this is really sad news." Sheffield leaning on the couch, with her big mouth open, finally retracted her mouth to the root of her ear, forcibly making a sad expression, "I I believe the Ministry of Justice will give DuPont a fair decision. "
"Yes, boss! I also believe that DuPont will wait for a fair ruling." Jess Lamu confided in conscience and was very happy for his boss, but forced to cover up the sad operation with a smile, he was just I did not see it.
The scene in front of me was really amazing. A trans-Atlantic human trafficking startup, a business owner who had business conflicts with DuPont, and the biggest evasion of antitrust laws, is now even concerned about an enemy. All this can no longer be described as a violation, it is simply a ukiyo-e.
Jesra ’s first reaction was that, fortunately, Mrs. Anna did not know that her chosen heir was performing like this. Otherwise, even if it is mocking, this is not allowed.
"This is a dual confrontation between politics and business." Sheffield is in the perspective of a neutral. "The two cannot be separated at the same time. We are law-abiding companies and we must do our best to cooperate with the Ministry of Justice's investigation of DuPont. , Ca n’t cover up because it ’s a partner in the gunpowder field, right? ”
"DuPont will definitely thank the boss for its help." Jesra witnessed the magical operation of the witnesses and convinced.
"Thanks are not necessary. In addition to their own companies, I care about them the most in this country. Who made our relationship so intimate." Sheffield stomped on the thigh and rushed toward the house, "Kiko, help I brought a bottle of wine. "
To this day, the slave owner can only drink his sorrow and wish justice to be extended. He can't do anything that can help the DuPont company.
Sheffield walked over to a long table of wine, took a bottle of red wine, poured a half glass of wine in the goblet in front of him, took a sip, and moistened his throat, and then continued: "DuPont's Several industries, such as gunpowder, industrial and mining, chemical and engineering departments, and the steel industry have Roland Steel Company, so think about it, is it very similar to our joint company? This kind of enterprise, the United States is completely enough, and the other one is completely a waste of resource."
This is obviously unreasonable. Since it is unreasonable, we should correct this error that should not exist.
Sato Kiko is different from Western women and different from the Internet filters of later generations. In this era, Japanese women of Yamato Fuko style still existed. There is a clear gap between Sato Kiko and Sheffield in shape. They look more petite and do their best. After taking care of it, a glass of wine hasn't said anything yet, and Sato Kiko has already filled the wine.
The only thing worrying Sato is that his mother does not seem to appreciate this man, but both of them already have an intimate relationship, what can I do?
"Kiko, be a little more lively. Of course, we are not a royal land here, but some restrictions are indeed less than your Eastern countries." Sheffield grabbed Sato Kiko's small hand and kept stroking.
Nobuo Sato blamed Sheffield blankly, and with her understanding of this man, this was a sign of making a wish, and said softly, "Get a good rest after drinking. It turns out that my father is like this, and so are you now."
Sheffield was a little embarrassed. He is not willing to recall the person Sato Yukio, especially when faced with the mother and daughter of the deceased. To be honest, he felt a little sad in his heart. If you don't go too far, you don't want to.
In the latest telegram from a German ally, Gustav expressed gratitude for Sheffield ’s gift, and of course also straightforwardly raised some objections to the design of this firearm, and said that even if so, he decided to collect this Get the gun.
The reason for this is that Sheffield gave Gustav a gift, an anti-tank gun made by the United Firearms Factory. In the current environment, this is a failure because no tanks are available. So in the telegraph, Gustav ’s explanation was that it was used against elephant shotguns.
The most fundamental reason is that once the European War begins, Sheffield can hardly play the attributes of senior German fans, breaking through the blockade of the British navy, the Germans sip? This is impossible.
I can only hope that the Germans will give them their own strength, and then dig out a little bit of potential in the first-class battle. Tanks cannot be given to Germans, but anti-tank guns can be given to Gustav for collection. As soon as the provincial British tank came out, the Germans had no way to deal with it.
Gustav, as the helm of the Krupp military-industrial complex, once he learned of the emergence of tanks in Britain, he should have the potential to discover this strange gun that was collected.
Morgan Tower, Little Morgan ’s eyes glanced back and forth in front of the two of them, with a look of embarrassment on his face. Erman Dupont, Coleman Dupont has now entered the political arena a year ago and is a member of the Republican National Committee.
With this level of relationship, Coleman Dupont was immediately informed of what happened in Washington. If this election is a Republican victory, Coleman Dupont can solve the problem himself.
But there is no problem. Now that the Democratic Party is in charge of the federal government, Morgan Jr. is also in a dilemma. You cannot solve this problem. Can I solve it when you come to the Morgan Tower?
"Pierre, Coleman, I have no choice." Little Morgan had to say that he could not help, "The problem now is that very few entrepreneurs have a huge influence on the Democratic Party, of course, it is not completely absent, but To be clear, you would rather not. "
Entrepreneurs who have a huge influence on the Democratic Party are long-term competitors of the DuPont family. If you consider Mrs. Anna who is still alive in Arlington, this is no longer a competitor's problem.
"Without him, maybe there will be no trouble this time." Pierre Dupont said, gritting his teeth. Although the words were doubtful, they were spoken in a positive tone. Obviously, where is the source of this time, he already has his own judgment.
"Can't you talk about it?" Little Morgan put forward a perfunctory suggestion in the absolute sense, and he also did not have any hope. This is simply an unsolvable problem.
