Chapter 199 Military Outsourcing Ideas (Find a Corner for Leader 'Yang' Plus 615)

It will take another half a month to get the gunboat, but Sean is about to get busy now.

It is useless to have gunboats alone, you need professionals who can drive gunboats!

The navy is a high-tech arm, which cannot be learned by anyone.

Not to mention anything else, just shooting.

Cannons can't be hit by just anyone.

In addition, many problems will be encountered in sea navigation, including how to locate the target ship and so on.

Sean wants to recruit a group of people from the military, not to mention getting a Killing-class destroyer in the future.

The Killing Destroyer has a full crew of more than 300 people. Sean will definitely not support so many people. However, removing the marine personnel on it, the basic control team members, maintenance team members, and firepower team members, these are still required. some.

If you want to bring out the combat effectiveness of such a large warship, you need a team of dozens of people.

And Sean is completely ignorant about how to form such a sea force, so the first thing Sean has to do is to find a former destroyer captain commander.

In the U.S. military, the commander of the destroyer captain is the rank of lieutenant colonel.

Don't think about Sean who is currently on active duty, but he has been a captain. When he retired, he was at least a colonel or a brigadier general, and some of them had already been promoted to the rank of major general.

And it will be older.

After being introduced, Sean is going to visit a major general named Layton Stevens.

Leighton Stevens, before retiring, was the commander of the task force at the Guantanamo military base and a rear admiral.

The U.S. military has established regular troops for more than 200 years. After practice, it has formed a relatively mature system for the retirement of soldiers.

It is stipulated that major officers can continue to serve in this rank until they have reached 24 years of military service.

Colonels, brigadier generals, and major generals, who have not been promoted within 5 years from the date of obtaining the official rank, must retire from active service within 30 days after the 5th anniversary.

Therefore, the retirement age of a U.S. military officer is not fixed. It may be 60 or 50, depending on whether he is promoted early or late.

Leighton Stevens is 62 years old, has just retired for more than a year, and is still in good health.

...

Georgia is a state in the southern part of the United States, between South Carolina and Florida, with the sea in the east.

The population here is more than 8 million, the economy is relatively developed, and it has a humid subtropical climate. Because it is close to the warm water ocean in the Gulf of Mexico, the climate is pleasant all year round, and the temperature in summer is between 27°C and 35°C.

It is a very popular pension state in the United States. Leighton Stevens bought a farm for retirement here after he retired.

Well, though he doesn't feel old.

Before Sean came, someone had already greeted Leighton Stevens, and the old man was not too pushy, so he took the initiative to pick Sean up outside the farm.

This farm is not too big, only about 300 mu. Leighton Stevens didn't plan to expect much money from the crops planted on the farm. The whole farm was more like a big resort.

A large villa was built on a small highland in the west of the farm. There is a small river next to the villa. The small river runs through the entire farm. Some cattle are scattered in the farm, and the whole farm looks very leisurely.

After showing Sean a tour of their villa, the two chose two horses in the stables, rode on the horses and chatted while taking a walk in the farm.

They were all soldiers, and Sean patiently listened to the old man's story about his glorious years in the army.

It can be seen that the old man refuses to accept his old age, and he doesn't know whether he is reluctant to part with his years in the army or the lost rights and status.

After riding around the manor for more than half an hour, the old man was a little tired, and the two returned to the manor villa.

After serving coffee and drinking for a while, Sean brought the topic to the purpose of this visit.

"You also know that I have an X security service company under my name. The current business is mainly in Columbia besides New Jersey. I don't think you have reached the age of retirement yet. I would like to ask you to come out and help out. "Sean picked up the topic.

"Security company, Sean, let me call you this. How do you position this security company?" Leighton Stevens knew that Sean was coming, so he searched for a lot of information about Sean.

Knowing that this guy started his career as a gangster, he knew that a few months ago, Sean drove an armored car to slaughter a mafia family in Atlanta, the capital of Georgia.

A ruthless and cunning guy like a fox!

It's just different from the traditional mafia. He doesn't spread drugs, doesn't do extortion, and doesn't participate in those traditional illegal businesses. Instead, he concentrates his power on the security company, controls the mafia family through the security company, and controls the local gang through the mafia.

The flat management method is very novel and creative.

In the past two years, through legal and illegal means, he has amassed a lot of money, and now his net worth exceeds 300 million. He is the fastest growing rich man in the United States in recent years.

Of course, the surname of the Rockefeller family also provides a lot of implicit protection, so there is no need to emphasize it.

The old man could see that although X Security was the one who kept losing money in Sean's entire system, it was very important!

"About the security company, my idea is that, except for the New Jersey area, other states in the country will only take over the short-term security business of some rich people's bodyguard business and public places such as conference venues." Sean sorted out his thoughts for a while and said his own plan.

"These are not expected to make much money, mainly to maintain reputation and relationships."

"The main business, I plan to put abroad."

"First: Provide security services to other countries and regions, such as Cartagena, Colombia."

"Second: Provide security services for some overseas companies, escort, rescue, and attack."

"Thirdly, and what I value most, I hope there will be some agreement with the military."

"Oh, what agreement." Leighton Stevens suddenly became interested. He can help with the first two, but they are not the most important.

"Military operations outsourcing agreement." Sean said with a smile. Speaking of this, his big white teeth seemed to be shining.

"What is a military operation outsourcing agreement?" Leighton Stevens was a little dazed, and a little unsure of his own thoughts.

"For example, the U.S. military needs to carry out some military operations in a certain area. However, if it appears as a U.S. military, it is not very good. It will somewhat cause opposition and criticism from other countries in the world. At this time, these operations can be used The form of commercial outsourcing to my security company, and then, this is a purely commercial behavior, Congress also has a good excuse and buffer." Sean talked about the concept of military outsourcing.

(Heishui was established in 1997, and there was no such concept at that time.)

"You, you, it's interesting, let me tell you more about it." Leighton Stevens' light blue eyes lit up instantly, and he smelled money and power.

...

(Wait a minute, update today's 8000, Emma, ​​my mind is buzzing)
