Chapter 582: Budget Required! (First Update!)
Lin Yu, who was preparing to make a name for himself and compete with Rheinmetall for the market, continued to scroll down the mouse, and then he found some other familiar companies.
Several companies from America.
Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, Lockheed.
Seeing these companies, Lin Yu's eyes froze for a moment, but soon calmed down.
America has several groups, among which the military industry group's actions, firepower, and holidays are also first-class.
And Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, and Lockheed are the best among them. After all, even the f22, the world's top aircraft, comes from these companies.
In addition, these three companies are also the world's top civil aircraft engine manufacturers.
Then these companies went to the exhibition in China to sell their own aircraft, as well as corresponding parts, and some special parts maintenance services, which is very normal.
However, if there are a little more things at that time, it will be interesting.
In the previous life, perhaps because they felt that they had no opponents, the people in these companies began to mess around, such as Boeing started to engage in lgbt, and the green hair was so eye-catching in the sun.
Then, Boeing started to have all kinds of problems, and finally sent it directly.
The two sides became competitors in this life, and Lin Yu was thinking about whether to do this group of people a favor and let them speed up.
After hesitating for a long time, he shook his head gently and suppressed this messy idea.
His current task is to make Rheinsteel stronger and then drive the upgrading of the industrial chain.
There is no need to deal with a company like Boeing for the time being. Now it is equivalent to distracting yourself from your own energy to confront the other party.
This kind of behavior is absolutely not allowed during the rising period of career.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Yu finally decided to advance the establishment of a fighter R&D center.
After fixing his thoughts, he turned his head, stood up and took out a document from the safe next to the bookcase, which was the engine document that was put in before.
He looked through the document, picked up the pen again, and revised it in front.
…………
America.
Near the end of the year, it was time for the annual budget again. As the commander of the Pacific theater, Dana naturally returned to Virginia and returned to his mansion in Arlington.
But this time, there were many more people in the mansion, all of them were his family.
As soon as he walked into the door, the salute exploded in his ears, and those colorful paper flowers gushed out from both sides of his body, then fell on his body, and then fell again.
The next second, a person he missed flew over from the side.
Then he hugged him tightly in his arms.
It was his wife whom he had not seen for a long time.
An old couple, living in two places, rarely had the opportunity to express their love in public.
Every hug would remind them that some time had passed, and their lives had also lost some time.
After holding his lover in his arms for a long time, Dena opened his arms, walked to his son next to him, and hugged him in his arms.
After hugging for a while, Dena noticed that there was a woman next to his son. The two looked at each other for a moment. Dena did not speak, but just nodded slightly, then turned around and came to Parison.
There was no hug, but he calmly raised his left hand, pressed the other's head, rubbed it gently, and cast an appreciative look.
After doing all this, he turned his head to look at the table next to him and said loudly: "Let's eat!"
After the parents spoke, a group of people walked straight to the table next to them without hesitation, sat down at their respective seats, and then waited for the meal to start.
After tying the napkin and praying in his heart for a moment, Dena opened his eyes, picked up the wine on the table with his right hand naturally, and raised his glass from a distance: "Let's eat!"
With his order, everyone present also picked up the wine glass, and the contents of each person's wine glass were different.
Several men held strong liquor, women held red wine, and children held water.
However, the same thing was the smile on their faces.
The gurgling sound sounded, and the dinner officially entered its climax.
This meal lasted until late at night, and everyone left reluctantly.
After leaving an encouraging look to his wife and asking her to clean up the dishes, Dena took Greb and walked into the study.
The door was closed, the curtains were drawn, the phonograph sounded, and both of their mobile phones were taken out by Dena, the batteries were removed, and they were put aside.
After doing all this, he looked at his son and asked, "Who is that girl?"
"Lacey, a child from an ordinary family."
Hearing this answer, Dena fell into silence. After a long silence, he slowly raised his head, shook his head, and said word by word:
"This child can't help you, separate early to save trouble later."
"Besides, she doesn't look like the character you set up at the beginning. If you don't handle it well in the early stage, it will be very troublesome later."
"By the way, how are the profits of Avenal Company and Apple Company?"
"The profits are pretty good." Greb said, turning around and walking towards the safe next to the bookcase. There are two there, one new and one old.
Opening the new safe, taking out a stack of documents and casually placing them in front of Dana, Greb explained:
"The main business of Avenal Company has always been like that."
"It's not going up much."
"The main reason is that the market is already fixed, there is not so much sales, only that fixed usage."
"If you want sales, there is only one way out, which is to start a war, and it is an equal war."
"Then there is Apple. My little share is now valued at more than $2 billion."
"We are rich."
"From a formal source."
Hearing the excitement in his son's words, Dena also felt happy.
Compared with money from informal channels, money from formal channels is much more convenient to use, and the most important point is that the corresponding taxes are less.
The IRS has special documents for gray income, and the corresponding tax rates are ridiculously high, which is simply not something that people can formulate.
On the contrary, funds from formal channels can be used at will as long as they pay taxes according to the standard.
If a foundation is established and he is invited to join the foundation, it will be easier to get the money.
Thinking away, a complacent smile appeared on Dena's face.
After a long time, he finally came back to his senses, locked his eyes with his son, and said calmly:
"Keep working hard, I'm going to rest first."
Clapping his son's shoulder and leaving a word, Dana turned around and walked out of the study without looking back and walked into the bedroom.
The next morning, he took the documents he had sorted out before, walked out of the door in high spirits and headed for the Pentagon.
In the Pentagon, the new year's budget meeting was held. The Navy, Army, Air Force, National Guard, Reserve, and various departments under the Ministry of Defense gathered together, and then in the conference hall under the Ministry of Defense, they cordially greeted the other party's family members.
"Why should our navy's budget be cut? It was cut when Rafield was here. Now that Rafield is gone, our budget is also being cut. Isn't it a waste that Rafield left?"
"Yes! What can that little budget do? It's the 21st century. We are still using equipment from the 1950s. This is a shame, a great shame. We in America are still using equipment from the 1950s. If this gets out, isn't it a joke?"
"That's right, we want new equipment!"
"Our soldiers are fearless and should get better equipment to ensure that they can return home and reunite with their families and children, instead of dying on the battlefield or returning home with missing limbs, and finally being abandoned by their families and children because of missing limbs and becoming homeless."
"No, brother, you actually cut the food expenses?"
"I think it should be cut , we also have to cut the army's funding. Our navy has to run on the sea every day, and we don't have enough food and clothing, so we don't have any combat effectiveness. "
"If we don't have funding, our warships will have to stay at the port. If the warships stay at the port, what about our deterrence?"
"That's right. At this time, cutting the navy's military expenditure is equivalent to telling others that we, America, are cowardly."
"Yes, our ships are to protect our dollars and to protect our people's free trade. If there are no warships, all this will be rewritten by others. At that time, the Ministry of Defense may not get the money. If they don't get the money, then the people below will make a fuss."
"That's right. The people below can't get the money, especially those who have retired. If they can't get the money, they will make trouble."
For these words, the army didn't react much at first, but soon, they woke up.
The idea of the navy's move is to sacrifice their army people, so that the navy can get more military funds.
It's really a good calculation.
However, the army was not stupid, and they started to scold each other:
"Since you navy guys are so powerful, how about we let the army troops overseas return home, back to America?"
"You navy is so powerful, but I don't know if you can protect those widows. The next time they collectively ask for compensation, maybe it's time for us to go out."
"Yes, brothers in the navy, the next time a war breaks out, you go boldly, and we will do our best to take care of the children you leave behind."
The naked threat made some of the navy generals blush.
They wanted to scold, but they didn't know where to start.
Seeing that they didn't scold, the navy generals started to scold again, and after a while, the air force also joined the battle.
While the audience was arguing, White on the stage held up a document and yelled, "Since you like to argue so much, I will help you put this document on the Internet, so that people from all over the country and even the world can help you argue, how about that?"
The furious voice immediately quieted the venue, and after it quieted down, everyone's attention subconsciously fell on the document.
What gave the newly appointed Secretary of Defense confidence.
The President's handwriting?
Or something else?
Just as they were puzzled, the document was thrown out of White's hand and fell in front of a group of people.
With curiosity, the document was opened and the contents were revealed.
It was a purchase list.
[Organic steak: 500 US dollars for 200 grams. ]
[Tea cup: 1500 US dollars/piece. ]
[Hand cream: can block infrared detection, 1000 US dollars/box, special for special operations teams. 】
【……】
The contents of the purchase list were in a mess, and the people present were also staring at the list, carefully analyzing where the data came from.
But soon, the generals of the navy, army and air force once again looked at each other, then gritted their teeth and asked: "You guys are playing so hard?"
The unanimous voice was very shocking.
Turning around, they started to curse each other in different ways.
"You stupid asses, worse than asses, actually spent so much money, and used those precious funds to buy those messy things, you are worse than pigs and dogs."
"You talk as if your navy is very good, don't you have $2,000 teacups there?"
"Okay, you navy and army are asses, don't you know how to reduce the unit price and increase the quantity?"
"Are you very proud?"
"Indeed, I am very proud!"
Amidst the mutual curses, White, who was sitting at the main seat, hammered the table hard and roared again: "Shut up, do you still want the budget for next year?"
"If you don't want it, then today's meeting ends here, and I will submit the plan."
"If you want to continue arguing, I will also submit the document just now."
"Do you understand?"
The Minister of Defense's rage again made the three parties present completely quiet down.
Start to really think about how much budget you want for next year.
In silence, the Air Force was the first to raise his hand and said loudly:
"We still have too few fighters. We need more f22s, not f15s, so we need the most funding."
As soon as the Air Force finished speaking, the Navy jumped up immediately: "More f22s? Do you know how expensive that thing is? That thing is simply not human. God knows how there is so much money."
"And it is also very troublesome to maintain. The funds are limited and must not be used on it."
"Besides, our Zumwalt, you have invested in research, and those also need funds to verify. Our Navy's funds must not be less, and we must get more."
When it comes to technological innovation, the Army can only sit on the side and stare at the opposite side with angry eyes, trying to stare to death in this way.
After a quarrel, the corresponding budget plan was submitted, and the three parties temporarily stopped fighting, looking at each other quietly, waiting for the outbreak of the next round of war.
At the main seat, White looked at the submitted budget plan, picked up a pen, crossed out some, and added some.
After doing all this, his budget plan was handed back to the three parties, asking them to consider it carefully.
After a long time, the budget plan was once again returned to White. This time, he did not talk too much, but signed his name on the budget plan very seriously. Finally, he took the budget plan, walked out of the office, got into the car, and drove to the Capitol.
