Chapter 720 [Large-scale Procurement of Equipment]

After confirming that the $50 billion fund was actually in the hands of Horizon Security, Luo Sheng immediately sent the latest instructions to August Furlong to convert the money into combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

As for sharing $600 million in cash with local mercenaries, it's all a trivial matter.

"I don't know what it's going to turn out to be like this, whether it's right or wrong." Qin Weimu suddenly said emotionally, which made her feel a lot after learning that Horizon Security Company was a secret chess set by Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng said in a deep voice: "If we were just a small company, there would not be so many problems in a small business, but the actual situation is that the Cote d'Azur, Bluestar Technology, Azure Pure Electric Vehicle plus Shengfeng Capital, this year's revenue will not be surprising The total number of these four institutions will exceed 1 trillion US dollars, and there are several other institutions such as Star Arrow International, which have not yet made efforts, and I am afraid that there will only be more in the future." ”

What is the concept of $1 trillion in annual revenue? If it is regarded as a country's gross domestic product, it can rank 15th or 16th in the world among more than 200 countries in the world, and it will continue to move forward in the future.

Speaking of this, Luo Sheng added word by word: "We are now... Rich, but not enough... Strong, rich but not strong but others on the board, all our achievements today, all of them can be subverted overnight, and even the entire family can not be preserved, as long as I think of my little princess who is only more than a year old, I must go on firmly, and I must succeed. ”

Qin Weimu sighed lightly, she didn't say anything, she also understood that her career had reached such a scale today, and she had offended I don't know how many people I had offended, and I didn't know how many people I wanted Luo Sheng to disappear into the world in an instant and divide his achievements.

Behind him is a cliff, only to move forward, there is no way back.

This is probably people in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.

At the end, Luo Sheng took her into his arms and said relaxedly: "With me in front of you, the rain can't fall on you, don't think about those who don't have it, it's better to have an in-depth discussion about integration, which may be more meaningful." ”

Qin Weimu: "......"

Woodhorn Building.

"This is the equipment procurement list submitted by Horizon International, which they want to procure, including 48 second-hand F-14 fighters, 33 brand-new F-16 fighters, 5 C-130 transport aircraft, and 100,000 swarm drones; Including some tanks, combat vehicles, light weapons, etc., a total of $19.9 billion in procurement. ”

After speaking, one of the senior staff members at the meeting put down the report in his hand and then looked at the participants.

Horizon Security's procurement list was submitted, which surprised a group of senior staff officials in the Cape Woods Bureau, and one participant said: "Horizon International wants to compete with Draken International? ”

Founded in 2012 in Lakeland, Florida, North America, by Gared Isaacman, Delaken International, a private military company founded by Gared Isaacman, is now the most powerful private air force in the world.

The company currently has a fleet of 118 fighter jets, most of which are used aircraft retired from the air forces of various countries, but also new aircraft purchased from other defense companies, which are more powerful than the air forces of some medium-sized countries.

The average medium-sized country not only has less fighters than Draken International, but it is also far inferior to Draken International in terms of the number of pilots.

Draken International is just one of the private contractors for the North American Air Force, along with Air Tactical Dominance (ATAC) in Newport News, Blue Sky Air Training in Las Vegas, Coastal Defense in Pennsylvania, Tactical Air Support in Renault and Mesa in Senior Ace.

These are private military companies, and Horizon Security Company is of the same nature, these military companies are very different from the traditional concept of mercenaries, and their customers may be state departments and their affiliated armies, or they may be international organizations, commercial enterprises, etc., to provide them with professional knowledge and skills in the military field and various security services of a military nature.

Unlike mercenary organizations, private military companies have a wide range of non-combatants, such as technicians, legal personnel, expert consultants, and even research departments, in addition to combatants, and can provide services that go far beyond the scope of traditional mercenaries.

Another participant at the scene pointed to the map and said: "If Horizon Security International has this batch of equipment deployed in North Africa, it can almost go sideways, the military company focuses on North Africa, and if there is an emergency here in the future, we can completely contract the war mission to the company without taking action ourselves, and let them act as a proxy for the war." ”

If you know that the mastermind behind the Horizon Security Company is Luo Sheng, these bigwigs in the Wujiao Bureau will be even more furious, not to mention the approval of the sale of weapons.

Until now, Lao Mei has always regarded Horizon Security as a person on her side, just like Draken International and Blackwater.

"That's good, it's okay to let Draken International entrust it to act as an agent for a battle, and the price will be sky-high." Another participant said, apparently in favor of the purchase order declared by Horizon Security.

Draken International is active in the Middle East, and at one time contracted the Woodhorn Office for $6 billion in proxy war services.

North American defense trading companies such as Loma, Raytheon, Boeing, and Lyell Binary have all received calls from Horizon Security's management for purchases, and now they are all screaming.

The price of second-hand F-14 fighters is about 30 million US dollars / unit, F-16 fighters are cheap, new aircraft are also 20 million US dollars / aircraft, and the C-130 transport aircraft that has no requirements for the take-off runway is about 40 million US dollars a piece, but the cheapest unit price of the swarm UAV is the most expensive, because the volume is the largest, and the purchase willingness is as high as 100,000 units.

Especially retired second-hand fighters, it is already troublesome to deal with, there are too many aircraft graveyards in the United States, why not someone buy them?

After deliberation and weighing, the Woods Branch approved Horizon Security's procurement list.

As for how the Horizon Company got all this money, now there is a lot of uproar on the news, of course I know.

But does that matter? It doesn't matter at all.

No one cares, the major arms dealers in North America have profited, and the Cape Woods is also happy to see that a private military company is deployed there in North Africa, which is equivalent to indirectly realizing the military presence of the magnesium army in the local area.

After the approval, Horizon Security soon signed purchase orders with major North American military companies such as Lockheed Martin and Lyell Binary, and the super order of nearly $20 billion is expected to be fully delivered by about 2021, of which Lyle Binary will provide at least 40,000 swarm drones this year.

Horizon Security didn't wait until the equipment was delivered, and Air Force pilots had to start recruiting, including other combat employees, as well as recruiting more technicians, legal staff, expert consultants, and more.

All in all, Horizon Security is now using this $50 billion to start growing and growing with international infamy, and with the acquiescence of Lao Mei, those reputations are not trivial at all.

Of course, the United States will acquiesce, and the Horizon Security Company purchases all magnesium-style equipment, which means that the $50 billion will basically flow into North America in the end, and 70% of the shares of the Horizon Security Company are "American-owned".

No matter how you look at it, the biggest winners are all North America.

And Luo Sheng's side also took advantage of the situation to wake up and release all the sealed androids, and sent them out except for the 18th who stayed.

This $50 billion is the first time that Horizon Security has ushered in a real big development, and the previous steady growth has only gained a foothold in the field of private military companies at best.
