Coleman DuPont was the earliest to control the DuPont family business, but as the DuPont family business grew larger, Coleman DuPont began to shift his focus and entered the political arena of the United States.
At this time, the DuPont family faced another internal conflict; Pierre DuPont, along with his brother, secretly contacted Morgan, hoping to obtain a loan from Morgan to buy Coleman DuPont's shares in DuPont.
According to the DuPont family rules, Alfred DuPont, as the eldest son and grandson of the DuPont family, was supposed to take charge of the DuPont family business.
Well, even foreigners have such rules.
As for why it was Coleman DuPont who was in charge of the DuPont family's company before, firstly it stemmed from the grievances of the previous generation of the DuPont family, secondly because Alfred DuPont was not liked by others in the DuPont family.
