Chapter 103 The unwilling giants
Although the master company has encountered a lot of difficulties, the company is overcoming various problems at a high speed with the cheating talent training model and the technology research and development model.
However, compared with the development of master companies, many former giants in the world have begun to have headaches. But this sentiment was not detonated until the recent rise of the Australian Airshow.
Australia has an extremely large adjacent area, and it is not as unpredictable as the African desert, so it can be said that it is relatively stable. There is also Australia in the world, now is not a special power, and there are basically no countries around, but also maintain a good neutral image, in the past ten years, Australia's aviation exhibitions here are booming, once caught up with China, Europe and the United States exhibitions.
However, after a long period of digestion and absorption, the biggest highlights of this exhibition are:
Manufacturer A: "Hello, look at our latest engine, the volume has been reduced by half, the energy efficiency has been increased to 82%, and the thrust-to-weight ratio has reached an unprecedented fifteen times!" โ
Customer B: "Oh, really, you've made a breakthrough in your research?" โ
Manufacturer A: "It's nothing, it's just the use of new materials from master companies." The internal blades, spindles, and some shells are made of the products of the master company. โ
B: "Master company, what is the cost of your engine?" โ
A: "It's not much, it's just $200 million!" โ
B: "$200 million? Well, what is your thrust and weight? โ
A, proud of "a single thrust of 50,000 pounds, the limit of 55,000 pounds, dead weight 1.03 tons. What do you think! โ
B "It's so cheap, can it be customized?" โ
And such a scenario has occurred at least in several engine manufacturers.
At this time, a product of China Express Airlines caused a sensation and was called a card aircraft by major exhibitors. The aircraft as a whole is completely made of new materials from the master company, including the material technology left over from the beginning. The length of the aircraft is 15 meters, the width is only 8 meters, the forward-swept wing has no canard shape, the height is 2.2 meters, the connection between the fuselage and the wing is 10 meters long, the fuselage is smooth and there are almost no hardpoints, and the only weapons are several rail guns. Two plasma engines that Huaxia has recently successfully researched, the thrust of the engines on display is as high as 10 tons, while the weight of the aircraft is only 7 tons.
Seeing such an airplane, even people who don't understand it have a feeling like a sharp knife.
The aircraft is not for sale, it is just for display. But all countries understand that this is Huaxia showing its fist! I'm being provoked!
It's just that Huaxia doesn't know that this kind of behavior has greatly stimulated the foreign capital class, and for these people, what they see is that the rise of master companies has hindered the profitability of their own companies!
Everything is as simple as that, as long as the master company is killed, the problem will be solved! That being the case, then...... It's time for everyone to discuss it together.
The matter, first of all, was led by GKN and contacted several smaller companies. And then somehow it spread among Westerners, of course, these people are high-level figures at the aerospace level.
In just five days of the exhibition, more than 30 companies have reached a consensus: the master company is simply a bedbug, the price of things is expensive, not to mention, but also to let the enterprises that need relevant materials provide their own core technology! For this alone, the master company has offended nine out of ten foreign companies. Not to mention, the master company grabs a lot of profits, so that more than half of the cost price of an engine is the master company!
This is not scientific for an arrogant Westerner: this is not scientific! It doesn't make sense either!
And the strictest of them is that companies like GKN, which provide a large number of parts and components, have watched their own profits slip away in an uproar, not to mention, and let their companies begin to go downhill, which has made many companies begin to bear heavy debt responsibilities.
In addition, the rise of China has also frightened Western countries, and in the past 20 years, with the rise of China, how many Western companies have been brought down. Basically, Huaxia can proudly say that as long as it can do it, basically the enterprises of Western countries can declare bankruptcy! That's how cruel it is. The huge demographic dividend has brought huge profits to Huaxia.
Nowadays, the rise of master companies, and it is completely impossible for Westerners to do, makes these Western countries and enterprises seem to see the scene of their own bankruptcy ten years later!
No, you can't allow that to happen! As the saying goes, evil comes from courage, and the strong rise of master companies has not only made these companies perceive the threat, but has threatened the high-end development scenario of these enterprises.
The rise of China is of course something that many countries do not want to see, so some countries' spies and so on, or espionage departments, have also begun to communicate with these people.
In other words, in this world, in addition to spies, there is also a class of personnel called: mercenaries!
As long as there is money, there is nothing that these mercenaries dare not do. Of course, the premise is to have a hope of success. With the support of Western countries, the owners of these enterprises got in touch with some mercenaries.
Werner van Weems was a former member of the German Special Forces who was later fired due to his style. But I have to say that Werner is a top special operator after all, and he has completed the important task of assassinating the drug lord alone. Now, he has gathered some scattered teammates or like-minded people to form a mercenary team named Red Fox. The Red Fox mercenary team has 30 people, including more than 20 people, except for a few technicians and logistics personnel, all of whom are veterans from all walks of life in Germany, and they are top veterans.
However, Werner appeared to be a dismissing soldier, but in fact he was a secret hand specially arranged by Germany to raise mercenaries abroad and train his own army. In this way, in peacetime, let their soldiers maintain strong combat effectiveness.
It's just that today Werner saw a huge bounty in the underground world network, and the amount was heartwarming! $1 billion!
It is said that from several consortia, the bounty jointly issued, the destruction of the master company, and the theft of the master company's internal text. Each copy of the text, according to the different technical content, will be issued a different price, the maximum price is not limited. But the first goal is to destroy the company of Miรจ masters, and we must kill all the high-level personnel inside!
Just, red Huaxia? This place is a headache for all the mercenaries, not to mention the various environments inside Huaxia, just talking about the strict gun control laws makes all the mercenaries want to cry!
Not to mention, the territory of Huaxia is not small, and you can't run away after committing a crime!
It's just that wealth is moving, not to mention, it is very clear above, there is no limit to the number of people, participate in the mercenary team, etc., anyway, as long as you want, a dozen mercenaries can ,...... In the end, as long as the result!
