Before the negotiations with Japan began, Thomas Mellon Rockefeller met with Xiao Rockefeller, his maternal grandfather, through his relatives.
A few days after the procurement negotiations with Mi Ri Industrial concluded, an overseas foundation was established in Dominion, marking the birth of a future super military-industrial conglomerate in the United States. Several pharmaceutical companies that had gone bankrupt or were on the verge of bankruptcy due to the Great Depression were acquired, and several shipyards on the West Coast were purchased by the Rockefeller Family. Just months after being acquired by Gross Brothers, Lockheed Aircraft Corporation was sold again.
The historic Springfield Armory, established in 1794, faced financial difficulties after the Great Depression and was licensed by the Department of Defense to be acquired by Ma Hong's conglomerate, which renamed it War Hammer. Lockheed also merged into this company. The Marmon Automobile Company, which was struggling due to the Great Depression, was also acquired and integrated into Warhammer Corporation.
Thus, a conglomerate encompassing pharmaceuticals, weaponry, shipbuilding, aircraft manufacturing, and military vehicles was established. Simultaneously, a congressional charter for arms sales rights fell into the hands of Thomas Rockefeller Mellon on the day Ma Hu Xuan Group was founded.
Xiao Rockefeller was willing to invest because Thomas Mellon Rockefeller seriously explained what he had discussed in front of the President and presented some events that were bound to occur, verified by the Rockefeller Family. Those assets considered worthless by the financial world were sold for a staggering price by Thomas Mellon Rockefeller, revealing his true value to Xiao Rockefeller. He was willing to provide funds and personnel to support Thomas Mellon Rockefeller but was turned down.
Thomas Mellon Rockefeller revealed a proof of assets showing hundreds of millions in cash deposits. Xiao Rockefeller was not surprised by the amount; he merely inquired about its source. Thomas Mellon Rockefeller chuckled and explained that it was a kickback from Your Grace in Japan for helping him acquire the industrial assets he had long desired. He also mentioned that similar kickbacks would be forthcoming from Germany as he would assist Hitler in obtaining coveted intelligence.
The Rockefeller Family had once been America's first billionaires; their family fortune reached hundreds of millions at its peak. However, even with hundreds of millions in cash today, they could not easily access it. Therefore, Thomas Mellon Rockefeller's plans received unwavering support from Xiao Rockefeller, who provided comprehensive manpower and resources for acquisitions and mergers as well as negotiations with Congress.
What would typically take decades to develop for Ma Hu Xuan Group and Warhammer Corporation was established effortlessly due to the power of capital.
From then on, Thomas Mellon Rockefeller would no longer concern himself with how Japanese-owned industrial enterprises would be relocated or transported to Northeast America. His focus shifted towards laying out plans in pharmaceuticals and military industries.
The first target was sulfanilamide; a German scientist had synthesized a red dye called Bai Lang Duo Xi in 1930, but no one had yet discovered its antibacterial properties. The second goal was penicillin; although discovered in 1928, significant technical challenges hindered its extraction and purification for mass production in medical practice.
However, with control over pharmaceutical companies and nearly unlimited financial backing, Thomas Mellon Rockefeller believed that mass production of penicillin would soon be achievable. Among his limited knowledge related to pharmaceuticals was a method for increasing penicillin yield involving corn syrup and a crucial extraction process using butyl acetate for multi-stage countercurrent extraction.
Having encountered relevant knowledge during high school studies amidst an era of information explosion, he realized that seemingly trivial knowledge could prove invaluable at unexpected moments.
In terms of military technology, it involves a completely new approach to warfare and weaponry. His past as an avid gamer provided him with ample knowledge of weapons and military tactics. He spent at least an hour each day watching various informative videos, which allowed him to develop some relatively reliable ideas for weapon designs and combat strategies.
