Chinese bulletproof vests the world's best
The shocking death of Shinzo Abe sent shockwaves globally, and even his seemingly invincible security team became a trending topic.
According to media reports, Abe's annual security expenses exceeded 200 million yen, with a significant portion allocated to personnel costs, creating quite a spectacle.
Ironically, the larger the spectacle, the more embarrassing the outcome. During the shooting, a bodyguard rushed to protect Abe, inadvertently knocking down a high school girl (JK). Astonishingly, he turned back to help the girl, displaying a gentlemanly demeanor but lacking professional ethics. There are also reports that "Japan's top female bodyguard," Moemi Ishida, was present. If true, this beauty, who claims to be able to defeat 10 strong men with her bare hands in just 0.2 seconds, might want to consider a career change. In this incident, the real winner turned out to be a game-changer not present at the scene: bulletproof vests.
Due to Abe not wearing a bulletproof vest during the assassination attempt, the demand for these protective garments skyrocketed. This, in turn, boosted the stock prices of three related Chinese listed companies: Jihua Group, Wanwei High-Tech, and Taihe New Materials.
A domestic bulletproof vest vendor stated that the situation is dire with demand far exceeding supply, and orders are now booked until November. The Chinese bulletproof vest industry is capitalizing on this opportunity, as it had already gained global popularity before this incident.
