Jean Dupuis
Jean Dupuis (7 December 1828, Saint-Just-la-Pendue, France – 28 November 1912, Monaco) was a French trader and explorer.
==Biography==
Dupuis was educated at Tarare (Rhône department). In 1858 he went to Egypt as a trader, and from thence to China. His trading journeys took him into many previously unexplored parts of southern China, and in 1871–2 his efforts opened up the Red River to commerce. In 1873 he was involved in a dispute with the Vietnamese authorities for trading weapons for goods on the Red River. The French explorer Francis Garnier came down on the request of the governor of Cochin China to solve the dispute; Garnier invaded the Tonkin area and captured its capital, Hanoi, instead, leading to the Taiping Rebellion. The foundations of the French possessions in Tongking were thereby laid and Dupuis did much to assist in the conquest of the country. Dupuis was in 1881 awarded the Delalande Guérineau prize by the Academy of Sciences in Paris.
