Chapter 282 R&D Funding in Delta

No one knows why Wen Ming preferred the Delta Special Forces, and he used the Pentagon connections he had accumulated before to contact the head of the Delta Special Forces and then arrange this exercise.

In fact, from the point of view of Teresa Roy, the most suitable buyer of this tactical goggles from the Umbrella company should be the Pentagon.

Connections are built through cooperation after cooperation, and with just one guardian deal, of course, it is impossible to make the relationship between Wen Ming and the top Pentagon executives very good. Selling tactical goggles, which are auxiliary equipment like plug-ins, to the Pentagon can not only get more benefits and maintain the relationship between the two sides, but also give benefits to the Pentagon.

If nothing else, just look at what Hans thinks now, and you can know that tactical goggles are in demand.

The Pentagon's giving tactical goggles to the Delta Special Forces, or to the Navy SEALs, can allow those Pentagon executives to maintain their connections.

But since Wen Ming has to choose the Delta Special Forces, Teresa Roy will not refuse, let alone put forward all kinds of reference opinions like when the two sides cooperated before.

Because of the cooperative relationship between the two of them, it has become Wen Ming who flew with him.

After the performance, Teresa Roy and her party on the command car were very warmly invited to the conference room of this military base by the high-level executives of the Delta Special Forces.

Donners and Hans began a summary report on the first actual combat use of tactical goggles.

From the perspective of the seller, as well as the perspective of Hans, who is about to become a buyer, this summary report is more like a touting report made by some media reporters after receiving the benefit fee.

Teresa Roy, who could sit below, did not have the slightest expression of shame. And those high-ranking members of the Delta Special Forces did not show any distrust.

The power of tactical goggles has already been incompletely demonstrated in the actual combat exercise just now. If you get tactical goggles as the standard configuration of the Delta Special Forces, and after a period of actual combat training, the soldiers and commanders of the Delta Special Forces will thoroughly master the function of tactical goggles.

Well, everyone present is convinced that the Delta Special Forces will become the most powerful special forces in the world, and there is no one.

The Delta Special Forces, which had been suppressed by the Navy SEALs for many years, finally had hope of turning over. So, they definitely won't let go of tactical goggles.

"I hope that we will be the only buyers of tactical goggles in the world."

After the conclusion of the report, it is natural to get to the point.

The head of the Delta Special Forces said: "I know that the profits you earn from relying only on our Delta Special Forces to buy tactical goggles may not even be enough for research and development funds." ”

The number of special forces in the delta is not large, and the open staffing is only 1,200 people, but in fact, there are only about 300 combat personnel. The rest is about 900 people, all of them support staff.

Teresa Roy knew that even if the Delta Special Forces were actually staffed more than the public ones, it would be impossible to buy many tactical goggles. Even if 1,200 people, including logistics personnel, are all equipped with tactical goggles, there are only 1,200 pairs.

Judging from the positioning of tactical goggles, how can an auxiliary individual combat equipment be sold at a high price?

Compared with another product of the umbrella company, 'Guardian', if the tactical goggles are only sold to the Delta Special Forces, they will not even create a high profit from a Guardian.

But Teresa Roy couldn't refuse directly, but looked at the head of the Delta Special Forces with a smile on her face.

The person in charge of the Delta Special Forces, who paused for a moment, was originally waiting for Teresa Roy to make a statement, or to discuss with him how to operate this matter, but the other party did not react at all, and could only say helplessly: "Mr. Roy, you know, we actually have a lot of cooperative research funds at our disposal. ”

The so-called cooperative research funds are actually military expenses. It's just that this part of the military budget is at the disposal of the Delta Special Forces themselves. The way of domination is to select some military industrial enterprises or research institutes, and then they put forward equipment ideas, and then the military industrial enterprises or research institutes will manufacture them.

They paid for it, and the institute or the military-industrial complex got the benefits. And the weapons and equipment that were researched later, if the functional effect is really good, they can even be sold to the outside world.

The benefits obtained from the sale are naturally one of the military expenses at the disposal of the Delta Special Forces.

After Teresa Roy heard about the cooperative research funding, she finally spoke: "Lieutenant General William, how much research do you think we spent on developing this tactical goggle?" ”

Lieutenant General William is the head of the Delta Special Forces, the commander-in-chief, although the Delta Special Forces were created by only a colonel, but with the development of the Delta Special Forces, he is only a colonel with the rank of colonel, and naturally he can't be the head of the Delta Special Forces.

"Mr. Roy, I'm not a businessman, I'm a soldier."

Lieutenant General William said with a serious expression: "So, I hope the negotiation between us can be more direct, you only need to tell me how much research funding we need to pay to make the tactical goggles a unique equipment for our Delta Special Forces." ”

Teresa Roy glanced at Donus, who immediately understood, and then said as the current technical director of Umbrella Corporation: "Our company spent $370 million in research funds to develop this tactical goggles. ”

The offer left Lieutenant General William, as well as others in the Delta Special Forces, such as Colonel Hans, who was in charge of an operations squadron, looking at each other.

It's not that it's cheap because of the power of tactical goggles, it's that it's expensive.

Lieutenant General William's expression remained unchanged, but there was anger in his eyes.

"Just a pair of glasses, the research and development funds cost 370 million US dollars, Mr. Roy, and Mr. Donus, do you think this is the first time that our Delta Special Forces have cooperated with others to research armament products?"

"Moreover, how long your umbrella company has been established, we all know very well in our hearts. In such a short period of time, you've developed the Guardian and you've developed the Tactical Goggles, so please tell me, are you burning cash in the lab for research? ”

As the head of the Delta Special Forces, Lieutenant General William is definitely considered a high-level in the US military, so he knows how to guard.

Teresa Roy smiled: "Actually, I don't know how to research, but I know that if we don't do an exclusive sale, the benefits that tactical goggles can create for us are definitely more than 370 million US dollars." ”

"Lieutenant General William, you are right, you are a soldier, not a businessman. However, I am not a soldier, I am a businessman. ”

It doesn't matter if the research funding is $370 million or not, the most important thing is that the $370 million is the price of the umbrella company.

Without waiting for Lieutenant General William to speak, Teresa Roy said: "We can indeed exclusively supply you to the Delta Special Forces, but we will not share the technology of tactical goggles, nor will we share the revenue generated by tactical goggles, after all, we will only sell them to you." ”

Lieutenant General William suddenly felt the urge to pull out his gun, and he really wished that there was also a businessman among the Delta Special Forces.
