With Raytheon's position in the United States, it is true that a small shipyard in this small part of Brazil can be ignored, and it is normal to ignore this order.

But in Fang Lang's view, he was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't have any sense of service when he was doing business, and later he was able to become bigger and stronger, so he had to sigh that God didn't have long eyes.

"Since others don't care much about our small business, don't you think about changing suppliers?"

Hearing Fang Lang's dissatisfaction, Osman Aragon said with some embarrassment:

"Boss, I'm really sorry, because we are a civilian shipbuilding company, and we are really not familiar with the suppliers of these military equipment, and we are not very clear, we should find that supplier to provide us with suitable radar equipment."

Looking at Osman Aragorn's appearance, Fang Lang could only shake his head helplessly, the information consultation in this era is far less developed than in later generations, and a lot of information that can be found casually at night in the eyes of later generations.

The people of this era have also gone through a lot of hardships to be able to find, he can only shake his head helplessly and ask:

"Then why did you find the head of Thor?"

"Ahh Because the radar on our cargo ship is purchased from their company! ”

Hearing Osman Aragorn's answer, Fang Lang's anger became even greater, and he said in disbelief:

"You mean, now the radar products of our shipyard were originally supplied by them, but now if you want them to provide a different one, they are not willing?"

"What the other side means is that our shipyards use civilian products, and there is no problem with sales. But now what we want to order is a military product, and the other party needs to approve it layer by layer, and in the end, although we agreed, it was also a bit of a delay. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang completely understood what was going on, to say that Fang Lang's bad impression of this company was really due to multiple reasons, and later generations Fang Lang knew that this company was sanctioned by his hometown in order to export contraband to Baodao.

Now that he heard that the other party treated a customer like himself like this, his first reaction was to replace him, and it was a big deal to make it himself, but now it is obviously too late.

I want to hate it in my heart, and when I go back, I will inquire and inquire, and I still don't believe that without you Zhang Butcher, I will eat pigs with hair.

"I understand, since this Raytheon company doesn't give us face so much, then our radar supplier will be changed in the future!

Don't worry, I'll go and find a suitable supplier myself. ”

Being able to clearly feel Fang Lang's dissatisfaction, Osman Aragorn of course didn't dare to say anything, so he could only nod his head again and again.

Originally, he came over to see the new equipment slowly, but he didn't expect to be disappointed because of the radar in the end, which made Fang Lang very dissatisfied, and turned around and left the dock directly, and as soon as he returned to the shipyard office, he called the Brazilian office of Shata Company.

Since it is the procurement of military equipment, of course, it is the Shata company under his own company that is most familiar with the business.

Sure enough, a positive answer was quickly received.

"Osman Aragorn, this is the address of Westinghouse Electric in the United States, and the telephone number of the general manager, you now arrange for the company's purchasing personnel to go to the United States immediately, meet with the people of Universal Shipbuilding Company, and negotiate with Westinghouse Electric Company.

Purchased the latest radars for cargo ships from Westinghouse, as well as anti-aircraft and anti-sea radars for our warships.

Remember, this time we are purchasing at the same time as Global Shipbuilding, and the supply quantity is very large, and our requirements can be slightly larger, such as providing production technology and authorizing us to produce ourselves, all of which have to be discussed.

Do you understand what I mean? ”

Osman Aragon obviously didn't expect Fang Lang's ambition to be so big, in fact, as early as when Fang Lang entered the television and computer industry, he was thinking about how to get involved in radar production.

After all, there are still many fields of application of radar in later generations, for example, the most commonly used reversing radar for automobiles in later generations, or a variety of sensors, in fact, the working principle of military radar is similar.

It's just a matter of power and using different wavelengths.

Professor Tan Ke, an aircraft expert hired by himself, has experience in studying missiles, and if he wants missiles to hit accurately, the role of radar is of course also very important, so of course Fang Lang cannot easily give up the production and research of radar products.

Otherwise, there will be a gap in their own military product line, and it just so happens that the current radar development has not yet entered the high-precision level, so if you don't take advantage of this period, enter the market early, accumulate enough technology, and it will be difficult to keep up if you want to catch up in the future.

It turned out that Fang Lang didn't know what the manufacturers of the radar were, and this inspection reminded him of this important technology, so he hurriedly asked Shata Company for help.

And Shata Company really did not disappoint him, and immediately told him about another radar manufacturer in addition to Raytheon.

If he is not mistaken, when the Anti-Japanese War was just won, the national government organized a team of more than 70 people to go to Westinghouse Electric for training and learning.

These students later became the backbone of China's electrical development, and an academician of the Academy of Sciences was born. It has provided great help for the construction and development of his hometown.

It's just that he didn't know that this Westinghouse Electric turned out to be one of the most important radar suppliers to the US military.

In fact, Westinghouse's strength is far beyond Fang Lang's imagination. The world's first pulse-Doppler radar mounted on a fighter jet was developed by Westinghouse.

However, the company was later acquired by Northrop Grumman and became a subsidiary of Grumman. Yes, many people may feel a little familiar with this company after seeing it.

He is the company that built the famous F14 Tomcat fighter and the B-2 stealth bomber. Like Raytheon, it is the most important manufacturer of defense equipment in the US military.

Of course, these Fang Lang are not clear, he only knows that now with the introduction of Shata Company, his shipyard has the opportunity to purchase radar from this company and learn the most advanced radar technology from here, which is enough.

Hearing Fang Lang's order, Osman Aragon still didn't understand what he meant, and hurriedly nodded seriously and said:

"Rest assured, boss, we will immediately arrange for procurement and negotiators to set off to get the radar production technology you want from Westinghouse."

Hearing this, Fang Lang nodded with satisfaction.

Soon, the time came to two o'clock in the afternoon, and several cars stopped outside the door of Fang Yuan Shipyard, and Fang Lang also led people to stand at the door to greet them personally.

"Haha...... Come to General Tower, welcome, welcome! ”

Seeing the other party's adjutant open the car door, when General Laita, who was short in stature and had a small round face, got out of the car, Fang Lang enthusiastically stretched out his hand to the other party.

It stands to reason that both of them have the rank of major general, and Fang Lang does not need to deliberately please each other.

But the other party, as the minister of logistics, although he can't do anything to Fang Lang, if he makes a little stumbling for Fang Lang in the allocation of logistics materials, it will also make Fang Lang very uncomfortable.

Not to mention his Fang family's military industry in Brazil, the products produced must also be approved by him before they can be used in the Brazilian army, which can be regarded as his own customers, in line with the principle that customers are God, Fang Lang will definitely not be bad with the other party.

In addition, Fang Lang and the other party have established a good friendship in the early stage, so taking the initiative to welcome each other's arrival can only be regarded as a courtesy between friends, and it is not a flattery or stammering at all.

"Haha...... General Fang, long time no see. It's really flattering to trouble you to come forward in person this time! ”

The current general Laita's attitude towards Fang Lang is very different from the original. After all, the current Fang Lang is a powerful admiral with heavy troops.

In addition, Fang Lang has a close relationship with the Minister of Defense and Mr. President, if he says something bad about him in front of the two of them, it may lead to him being removed from office and investigated at any time!

What's more, as the largest buyer of his wife's calligraphy and painting works, he and Fang Lang have long been the closest of their own people.

"Haha..... You're welcome, you're welcome, we're inside please! ”

The two walked into the office building of the Fangyuan Group shipyard with a smile and a smile.

General Laita casually said to Fang Lang:

"Fang, I heard that your recent movement has been quite noisy! A lot of retired soldiers in Brazil have been recruited by your military contracting company?

What is this for? ”

Fang Lang didn't expect that the other party would ask him about this matter, and glanced at the other party with a smile and said:

"What? Your dude is also interested in this business? ”

General Laita hurriedly shook his head and said:

"I don't have the ability to do it like yours, I'm just curious, what is the purpose of suddenly recruiting so many veterans?"

After all, military contracting companies are to make money, and the cost of recruiting soldiers from the United States is obviously much higher than that of Brazil.

And the combat effectiveness of Brazilian soldiers is not much worse than that of American soldiers, so in terms of personnel recruitment, military contracting companies naturally choose high-quality and inexpensive.

Since the military contracting company won the contract for the U.S. intervention in Brazil and Turkey, the military contracting company has begun to expand rapidly, and the situation of the original only American instructors has changed rapidly.

A large number of cheap Brazilian retired soldiers, hired by military contracting companies, go to military bases near La Bosa for training, ready to be sent on missions in Greece and Turkey.

Considering that military contracting companies need to perform dangerous tasks, the intensity of military training is very high, and the instructors are also battlefield veterans with a lot of actual combat experience.

Of course, Fang Lang did not explain much to the Brazilian military about this kind of business behavior, but only recruited in Brazil normally.

I didn't expect this matter to make General Laita interested, it seems that there are no secrets in this world! Even General Laita, who is in charge of logistics, knows about it, and the other military generals must be guessing what is going on!

It's better to borrow the mouth of General Ta and spread the details of the matter.

"Huh..... Isn't this the Whip of God military contracting company, which won the contract of the US Department of Defense to organize manpower to Greece and Turkey, and is responsible for eliminating the rebels there?

Of course, such a military operation requires a lot of manpower, and I, as a Brazilian, of course, have to give priority to our own Brazilians, after all, although this job is dangerous, the salary is really good. ”

"What, this whip of God of yours actually won the contract of the US Department of Defense!"

General Laita, who was walking side by side with Fang Lang, was directly stunned by Fang Lang's words after hearing Fang Lang's words, and stood in place dumbfounded, looking at Fang Lang in disbelief.

Seeing that the other party stopped in place, Fang Lang patted the other party's shoulder with a smile, signaled and said as he walked:

"It's a business, no fuss!"

General Laita had to give Fang Lang a thumbs up, this forced pretending is okay, and full marks must be given.

"Isn't this the work of the army? How did it become a business?

Isn't you, the Whip of God military contracting company, a private army recognized by the United States? ”

While following the footsteps of the waves above, General Laita asked while looking at Fang Lang.

Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled, waved his hand indifferently and said:

"It's not as exaggerated as you say. Who says that this kind of work can't be a business?

The U.S. Department of Defense feels that the war has just ended, the disarmament plan is being implemented, and it continues to send troops to other countries to carry out military operations, which may cause resentment among the domestic population.

But they can't watch their allies in a state of turmoil, isn't it normal to take out a sum of money at this time and hire a professional team to help the allies stabilize the local situation and exterminate the rebels?

As for the private army, it is even more nonsense, they do not owe allegiance to anyone, they are only employees of the Whip of God military insurance company, this is just a job to support the family. ”

In fact, this kind of thing is very common in European and American countries, and mercenaries have existed as early as the Middle Ages. The so-called military contracting companies are, in fact, modern mercenaries.

Therefore, it is not that General Laita cannot accept the existence of this kind of military contracting company, what really shocked him was that this company set up by Fang Lang could actually get a military contract from the US Department of Defense, what this means, he knows very well in his heart.

But obviously Fang Lang couldn't answer his question head-on, but the more Fang Lang didn't say it, the more divergent his heart would think about this problem, and in the end, what kind of conclusion would be drawn was beyond Fang Lang's control.

In fact, Fang Lang didn't want to control the other party's thoughts.

"But the presence of Brazilians on the battlefields of Greece and Turkey will have any adverse effect on our country?"

Hearing this, Fang Lang was a little surprised to look at the other party and laughed, patted the other party's arm and said:

"Don't worry! Our company is a regular military contracting company, which only accepts regular employment contracts from the government and does not do black work, in which case no one cares where these soldiers come from. ”

General Laita thought about it and probably felt that it made sense, so he didn't say anything more, but in the end, he didn't forget to give Fang Lang a thumbs up and said:

"Fang, you're a powerful guy."

Hearing this, Fang Lang laughed, pushed open the door of the company's conference room, and invited the other party into the room before saying:

"Haha...... But it's not just me who is powerful, but the products produced by our company are also quite powerful! ”

How could General Laita not understand what Fang Lang meant, this is to start selling him the products of the shipyard, for this, he is not disgusted, but very appreciative.

After all, according to the information provided by the shipyard of Fangyuan Group, the two patrol boats that came to inspect this time are indeed very suitable for their needs.
