Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

"Actually, chopsticks are quite good once you get used to them. Using your hands would be like adopting Third Brother's customs. However, if you want to be faster, use whatever you like," Qin Yang said casually.

Qin Yang was being so perfunctory to people of this level? Wang Hai's mind raced, considering how to trick Qin Yang again. However, remembering Nie Xiaoqian leaving after talking to Qin Yang, he had a bad feeling.

Before the meal was over, Nie Xiaoqian returned and whispered a few words in Qin Yang's ear. Qin Yang nodded, a hearty smile on his face.

"Everyone, after we finish eating, we'll go see the bulletproof vests."

Pa, Perry put down his chopsticks: "Okay, let's go now!"

Wang Hai looked at Nie Xiaoqian suspiciously. 'You reported to the higher-ups, and they agreed?'

If the higher-ups hadn't agreed, Qin Yang definitely wouldn't be so cheerful.

"I'll go too," Wang Hai stood up.

"Sea Turtle, you don't need to go. You can't do anything there," Qin Yang said, "Now, our distinguished foreign guests have finished their meal, you can leave."

"No, I speak English. I lived in America for three years. I can definitely be a big help. I can do anything."

"You can really do anything?" Qin Yang asked.

Wang Hai nodded: "Of course."

"Wearing our bulletproof vest as a target, do you dare?"

If there were leaders present, they would definitely be very dissatisfied. In front of distinguished foreign guests, you're actually fighting amongst yourselves? However, since the reception task has been handed over to Fangbei Company, Qin Yang can arrange things however he wants. Besides, as long as the agreement reached with the Americans today is reported, it will be a great achievement. Who dares to argue with Qin Yang? Show some ability and sell arms to the Americans!

Be a target?

Wang Hai was stunned. 'Are you kidding me?'

Although that kind of bulletproof vest has already demonstrated its powerful performance, and rifle bullets can't penetrate it, there's always the possibility of accidents. What if the bulletproof vest I'm wearing is defective?

Life only comes once.

"Mr. Qin, what are you waiting for?" Perry urged.

"Okay, we'll go right away," Qin Yang replied.

"Wang Hai, I warn you, don't follow us again. We are engaged in important foreign affairs activities. You have already caused one leak. If there is another accident because of you, you can't bear the responsibility, and your family can't protect you!" Nie Xiaoqian said softly beside Wang Hai, her tone serious. After saying this, she followed Qin Yang's pace.

"How do your bulletproof vests manage to stop direct rifle fire?" Perry said excitedly as he walked, "Currently, the PASGT used by our army can only protect against shrapnel."

They had already bought a lot of weapons in the morning, but Perry wasn't this excited. After all, those equipment from the morning were old and primitive, and they weren't for the US military's own use. Now, this bulletproof vest is different. After buying it back, it will be equipped by the US military themselves.

Why did they lose the Vietnam War? Wasn't it because too many people died in Vietnam, and the domestic anti-war sentiment started? If casualties had been reduced, they could have continued to persevere!

Air personnel can wear steel plate protective vests, but ground personnel are different. They have to operate in jungle areas and need to be flexible enough. Therefore, throughout the Vietnam War, they were still using old antiques from the Far East War: laminated nylon flak vests.

After the Vietnam War, the army began designing a brand new bulletproof vest, and conveniently used Kevlar. However, in the beginning, they still followed the path of soft bulletproof vests.

The PASGT that Perry mentioned is the Ground Troops Personal Armor System, a Kevlar soft armor vest with camouflage patterns that can only protect against shrapnel. This type of bulletproof vest has not yet been used in large quantities, only a few elite units have adopted it, and it was not until Operation Desert Storm in '91 that it began to be used in large quantities.

The old story that bulletproof vests can only protect against shrapnel and handgun fire has gradually become deeply rooted in people's minds.

Now, no one would believe that a bulletproof vest can stop direct rifle fire.

"Which is more important, flexibility or saving your life, depends on what the soldiers choose," Qin Yang said, "We have an ancient saying in the East, 'You can't have both fish and bear's paw.' You can also feel it and see if this thing is light enough."

The officer took the bulletproof plate. It didn't seem as heavy as he had imagined?

"It should be less than 7 pounds, plus that vest, it's about 9 pounds in total, about the same weight as our PASGT!"

The army doesn't use the air force's bulletproof equipment because they think it's too heavy. The weight of this thing in front of them is still within their acceptable range, and they began to ponder whether it can be used.

"What material is this made of?" someone asked.

"I'm very sorry, this is confidential," Qin Yang said, "We can't say."

"Okay, then we can try it now and see how its protection is," Perry said.

"Yes, we are on the shooting range..."

"Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin, I can be the target to test for the guests!" At this moment, a voice came from outside.

Qin Yang turned his head in surprise and saw Wang Hai being stopped by two people, not allowing him to approach. He could only shout, still using English.

"Let him come over!" Qin Yang said, "The time has come to show the courage of the Chinese people!"

"You use a human body as a target?" Perry was very surprised.

"Yes, this fully reflects our confidence in our bulletproof equipment," Qin Yang said, "Everyone will see a wonderful scene."

Wang Hai tried hard to control his trembling body. When he passed by Nie Xiaoqian, he held his head high and chest out, letting you see that I am a real man too!

"Come on, Sea Turtle, put on this vest, I'll help you," Qin Yang enthusiastically stepped forward to help, quickly putting on the bulletproof vest and inserting the bulletproof plate. While helping, he muttered to himself, "We have to make sure they aim accurately later. If the wind blows the bullet off course, it's okay if it hits the arm, but if it hits the crotch, it's a lifetime of happiness..."

Wang Hai felt a chill down below.
