305 Military negotiations
At this time, it is estimated that everyone in the entire reception room knows Wang Shizi again, and this guy is really bold enough and upright enough. After all, it takes some courage to say something like that.
But then again, it's not wrong in business, who would do a loss-making business?
"Huh! No amount of investment in national defense construction can be excessive. Okay, so tell me how much money we need to invest if we want to get the 3D virtual military exercise system you mentioned as soon as possible? After glancing at everyone in the reception room, Admiral Yang asked with a smile.
"The initial investment is about $20 billion!" Wang Shizi lowered his head and pondered for a moment before giving an answer, "Of course, this is only an approximate estimate, and the specific figure still needs to be actuarial for various materials and various processing costs now and in the near future." But I don't expect it to be more than $22 billion! With this money, Datang Shizi can basically guarantee that this system will be provided to the military within a year. ”
"Two and two billion? Or the dollar? Or is it just an upfront investment? So expensive? Obviously, Wang Shizi's offer surprised Admiral Yang.
"It's not expensive!" Wang Shizi shook his head and began to continue to talk eloquently, "Let's put it this way, taking the US Department of Defense DOD as an example, they began to study the combination of VR and military exercises as early as the eighties of the last century. Since then, research into VR virtualization has begun, including DARPA, the U.S. Air Force Technical College, the U.S. Naval Graduate School, and the U.S. Army Research Institute. ”
"The main research direction is the development and application of large-scale virtual environments. The goal of the research is to develop low-cost simulators for interactive simulation based on networked virtual environments, as well as behavioral science and computer science related to virtual environments, and virtual digital applications of simulated electronic battlefields for combat training. No less than $600 million is invested annually in these studies. ”
"In recent years, they have increased their investment. It has been publicly reported that in 2013 the U.S. Department of Defense invested $8.6 billion in research to train pilots with the help of flight simulation technology. In 2015, $30 billion was invested in the research of virtual battlefield equipment, and now countless American GIs have begun to use these virtual technologies for battlefield adaptability training. In order to improve the actual combat capability of the army. ”
"And the 3D virtual military exercise system provided by our Datang Shizi is not like these scattered research project portfolios. Rather, it is a complete set of large-scale virtual military exercise solutions that can be used for large-scale military exercises and simulated actual combat exercises, and even can simulate and restore battles. Think about it this way, do you still think that these two billion dollars are expensive? ”
"As for the upfront cost, it's just a relative concept. Because the later cost is mainly the upgrade and maintenance work after the delivery of this system. If the military wants to save some money in this regard, it can completely send a number of outstanding and high-quality military personnel to participate in the research and development of this system. We, the Tang Dynasty, will not hide their secrets from this group of soldiers, and they will be fully competent for the daily maintenance of this system in the future. At that time, the later expenses were some chip upgrades, which were just small money. ”
At this point, Wang Shizi finally stopped his tirade, and the reception room was quiet again.
After a while, Admiral Yang glanced at Chen Yuhang with a smile, and then asked Wang Shizi: "I said, Xiao Wang, didn't you know that we were looking for you to talk about this today, so you are ready to negotiate with us, right?" ”
"You're thinking too much!" Wang Shizi said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "In fact, after our Datang Shizi R&D Center developed glasses-free 3D virtual display technology, I have been considering the application of these technologies in the military. To tell the truth, Datang Shizi is a local enterprise in China. He is very willing to contribute to China's national defense construction. After all, without the support of the country's strong armed forces, no matter how good the development of the Tang Dynasty is in the future, it will only be a castle in the air. ”
"In the end, advanced technology and resources still need to be protected by strong force, and I understand this truth. But as I just said, after all, the Tang Dynasty still has to consider its own development. Only when we develop and become strong on our own can we provide greater assistance for national defense construction in the future. As I said before, if the military is not in a hurry to use this system, it might as well wait. Maybe five years, maybe ten years, until we really grow and grow. When the time comes, it will be a big deal to provide this system to the military for free. ”
After saying these words very sincerely, Wang Shizi picked up the tea on the table and drank it quietly. His words were indeed in his heart. But he knew very well that these generals on the other side would definitely not choose the free program he offered. It's not that Wang Shizi is hypocritical, because if the army can really wait for so long, after five years and ten years, these technologies will naturally be perfected in the development process of the Tang Dynasty, and when the time comes, it will not be much to provide these technologies to the military for free to use.
However, when the advantages of this system were learned. Who wants to wait that long for someone with a little visionary? After all, the whole system has been developed and delivered, and it will take time to improve the combat effectiveness of the army. No one is a prophet, and who knows what it will be like in a few years? Being able to quickly improve combat effectiveness is the king! Of course, he didn't expect the extreme general on the other side to make a decision today. After all, it is a large investment of hundreds of billions of dollars, and the state spends money, so it must continue to be reported for research.
So as Wang Shizi expected, he had just swallowed two sips of tea, and after a few whispers on the other side, Admiral Yang spoke again: "In this way, Mr. Wang will make us a plan as soon as possible, try to be as detailed as possible, and write down the functions and advantages that you said about this system, and the use of investment money should also be marked as clearly as possible. ”
"No problem, in three days, I'll have someone deliver the plan here." Wang Shizi readily agreed, then looked at the time, and said, "It's not early today, I'll go back first if there's nothing to do!" ”
"What's the hurry? It's time for dinner, so why don't we have a meal together today? Chen Yuhang, who had been silent, spoke.
"I'm really sorry, Chen Gong, you only notified me to come over yesterday. I told my girlfriend a few days ago that we would have dinner together this weekend......"
Wang Shizi's serious and straightforward words made Chen Yuhang smile bitterly again and shook his head, and after a while, Admiral Yang's hearty laughter rang out again, "Haha, it's understandable, it's understandable, Xiao Wang's dinner with his girlfriend at this age is much more important than drinking with a few of us old guys!" Okay, let's not delay the little one's date, let's go! (To be continued......)
