Chapter 612: William's Project
A day later, Dean Morgan and Lee Boo-jin's engagement ceremony was held in a grand ceremony at the Shilla Hotel!
In addition to all the members of the Lee family, prominent people in South Korea attended the engagement ceremony, and several members of the Morgan family came from all over the country to attend.
After the engagement ceremony, John spent two days in South Korea before flying back to the United States, ending his trip to South Korea.
Dean Morgan and Li Fuzhen did not return with John, and the two had to deal with some personal matters in South Korea before returning to the United States to prepare for marriage.
…………
Inside Stillman Estate, Albany, New York.
William put his luggage in the trunk and prepared to leave the manor, having already told his father, Hyde Stillman, about setting up his own door.
Hyde Stillman didn't say anything, gave him $1 billion and a piece of land, and sent him away!
"Father, sister, I'm leaving, I'll come back to see you when I have time!" William said hello to Hyde Stillman and Micro Blue Stillman after putting his luggage in the trunk, and then drove away from the manor towards New York City.
The arms field needs a lot of science talents, and Staten has the largest number of polytechnic universities in the world, so William decided to put his career in Stendon and prepare to make a career here.
But for the time being, he needs to rent another office building in Manhattan for a while.
"Father, why don't you persuade him when you know he's going to fail?"
Blanc Stillman asked, looking at the vehicle that was already far away.
"He won't listen to me if I tell him!" replied Hyde Stillman.
"I think you want to wait for him to come to your thighs and cry after he fails, and then teach him a good lesson with those great principles of life, so as to satisfy your refreshing feeling of showing off your life philosophy and wisdom.
Father, can't you skip this step and go straight to the next step?" said Vilan Stillman.
"Bastard, I seem to be called quirky by you, am I such a person?" Hyde Stillman looked at Blue Stillman angrily. "If I don't let him go out for a walk, he'll hate me for not letting him go out for a walk, and he thinks the earth revolves around him. You jumped straight to the next step, and it ended up hurting him and making him hate him!"
"If it hurts him like this, then I don't mind hurting him a few more times, and then sprinkling a handful of salt and stomping on both feet, how can my own brother let someone else hurt a thousand holes, and if he wants to hurt, I will hurt it!" said Blanc Stillman, turning and walking into the house.
"Where are you going?"
"Nap!"
"We're not done talking yet!"
"It's over!"
Weilan Stillman unilaterally ended the conversation, Hyde Stillman was so angry that he said that his daughter was his father's little padded jacket, and Hyde Stillman felt that Weilan Stillman was specially angry with him!
The other side!
William, who left the manor, was thinking about starting a business while driving the car.
Hyde Stillman gave him $1 billion and a plot of land, which seemed like a lot of money, but it was actually a pitiful amount!
Weapons research and development is a gold-swallowing monster, not to mention heavy weapons such as fighter planes and warships, and the research and development funds for these weapons can only be tens of billions of dollars at every turn, and it will take several years to successfully develop them.
The R&D fund of the F22 fighter has exceeded 20 billion US dollars, and now ten years have passed without successful development, which shows how difficult it is!
$1 billion smashed into it won't even bubble.
Therefore, William basically did not consider these weapons for the time being, and could only consider some guns and other individual equipment.
However, before considering the development of these weapons, William first had to solve the problem of the company's office building, and Hyde Stillman gave him a piece of land in Staten, so he had to hire an architect to design the office building and build the company's headquarters. Again, I rented a floor of an office building in Manhattan.
The second is to build a team.
This is easy to solve, he has invited a few classmates during the break, and the stall does not need to be very large at the beginning, a few main R&D personnel plus some other staff are enough.
…………
When William came to Manhattan, he temporarily rented an office building in Rockefeller Center as an office space, and the Blue Shark factory was established!
After the establishment of the company, William did not spread the stall very large, he did not have much money, and he had to be careful in his calculations, so the company was temporarily divided into three teams, the firearms research and development team, the military uniform research and development team, and the exoskeleton research and development team.
The firearms currently used by the U.S. military are M4 carbines and M16 automatic rifles, as well as M9 semi-automatic pistols.
These three guns have their own advantages, but they also have disadvantages, such as the M9 semi-automatic pistol is too powerful, the barrel, sleeve seat and card iron are easy to damage, there is no accessory rail, it is difficult to attach a silencer, the grip is poor, the trigger force is too large, the safety is difficult to adjust, and the open sleeve is easy to cause failure, etc. Especially for special forces, who use firearms frequently, these shortcomings are even more aggravated.
So William decided to develop a modular semi-automatic pistol for the U.S. military that was lighter, more accurate, of better quality, and more ergonomic.
For automatic rifles, William is also ready to use modularity, increasing the additional functionality of the gun and increasing the combat capabilities of individual soldiers.
For the firearms part, William decided to invest $500 million in research and development, $200 million for semi-automatic pistols, and $300 million for automatic rifles.
Developing a firearm is not about drawing drawings, just about making a mold and making a gun.
To develop a pistol, a series of experiments must be carried out from the materials used, and the parts of the firearm also need to be tested, and all the tests will be carried out after passing the test to form the finished product, including high temperature, extreme cold, jungle, desert, and underwater...... and other environmental experiments, but also to carry out loss, life, rate of fire, operation...... If the research and development goes smoothly, the research and development can be completed in one to one and a half years, and if it does not go well, it will be a long time! The funds required for this cannot be solved by one or two hundred million yuan.
And even if the experiment is completed, the Department of Defense may not be able to procure it, and the Department of Defense needs to integrate your strengths, including gun performance, price, and production...... Wait.
So the arms business is not so easy to do, and the money of the US military is not so easy to make!
In terms of combat uniforms, William decided to develop an all-terrain combat uniform to replace the current combat uniform of the US military, which increases comfort and technology while enhancing concealment.
In terms of combat uniforms, William decided to invest $100 million in research and development funds, and if it is not enough, it will be increased appropriately in the later stage.
With the development of science and technology, William found that soldiers have more and more equipment and larger loads, so he wants to develop a high-quality exoskeleton armor for the U.S. military to improve the weight and mobility of soldiers.
GE developed exoskeleton armor in 1960, and although the armor could increase the wearer's strength several times, it was inflexible and not practical, so the project was stopped by GE.
However, William felt that this exoskeleton armor was very promising and decided to increase research and development.
