Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Brigadier General; military rank, general level military rank, the lowest level of general-level officers, between colonel and major general, higher than colonel. From the actual situation, China's senior colonel should be on the same level as British brigadier general, but lower than those in the United States and other countries brigadier. Brigadier General is the lowest rank among general officers in some countries. This rank does not exist in the military rank system of some countries.

At this time, Brigadier General Butt, whom Ian Wright mentioned, was inspecting Heiyun. His purpose was to understand the development status of new military vehicles. Brigadier General Butt was an unwelcome presence in the Ministry of Defense, otherwise he would not have come to Heiyun. When it is generally believed that Hei Yun has no chance, it would be strange to send such a person here to give you a good look.

But to Brigadier General Butt's surprise, Heiyun Motors warmly welcomed his arrival. Not only did John Chambers greet him at the door, Bao Zixuan also personally introduced the preparations of Heiyun Auto.

Brigadier General Butt, who had always been unpopular in the army, was very touched. At least now he felt respected. As a veteran, I am not an ignorant person. Respect is mutual, and he has heard Bao Zixuan's name more than once.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Welcome General Butt to come to Heiyun for inspection. We have been looking forward to your arrival for a long time. In terms of military vehicle research and development, we also hope that the Ministry of National Defense can give certain guidance and opinions, otherwise it will be done behind closed doors. "

As a Vietnam War veteran, Butt has seen some big scenes. Moreover, Colonel Freiburg also communicated with him and investigated the information about Heiyun and Bao Zixuan before coming here. This kid in front of you is very clever, so you have to be extremely careful during the relationship.

Butt: "Mr. Bao is joking, your name is well known. I came here just to see the development progress of Heiyun's new military vehicle. You are an expert in this area, why do you need me to guide you."

Bao Zixuan already knew about sending Bute here in advance. It was provided by Colonel Freiburg, and Maotai is gradually working.

Colonel Freiburg gave him mixed reviews, both for his courage in combat and for his inability to adapt in the workplace. In short, this person is not easy to get along with, especially if he is unhappy with rich people.

It doesn't look like what Colonel Freiburg said, but it's better to be careful.

It can be said that both of them have their own agendas and want to see what the other person is doing.

Bao Zixuan: "General Butt, would you like to listen to our report first, or visit the workshop directly? Let's take a macro view of the research and development progress."

I know that this old boy's cultural level is not high, but he is a famous rough guy in the US military. In order to avoid embarrassment, it is better for Heiyun to bring it up first; it can also be regarded as giving the other party a step down.

Brigadier General Bute did not expect Bao Zixuan to be a director, so he said with a smile: "I like to be more direct, so I'd better go to the workshop to see the development progress of military vehicles."

"Mr. Bao is so confident that he will not disappoint anyone."

Under the leadership of Bao Shoufu, several people came to the parts manufacturing workshop. At this time, the main body of the military vehicle has been completed. Although it is only a shell, it still shocked Butt.

But from the perspective of styling, Heiyun's new military vehicle can crush all the military vehicles we have seen before. Although the appearance can't determine anything, the mighty and domineering appearance can still increase the combat effectiveness of soldiers to a certain extent.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said: "General Butt is an expert. What do you think of our military vehicle?"

After waking up from the shock, Butt quickly said: "Very good, Heiyun's car research and development capabilities are indeed well-deserved. Even if the performance is not good, the sales of this car will not be bad. There are still many people in the world who belong to the Appearance Association. It can be seen that How important is appearance."

"By the way, I really want to know what the name of this car is."

You must know something when you ask this, and Bao Zixuan also knows that he can't hide it for long. Rather than hiding it, it's better to be direct.

Bao Zixuan: "The name of this military vehicle is George Patton. It was mainly developed based on General Patton's preference for the speed of jeeps and the armor concept of tanks."

In the United States, as long as they are pure soldiers, they basically worship General Patton. Brigadier General Butt is no exception, and he admires him from the bottom of his heart. Now that I heard the name of the military vehicle was George Patton, I knew that this guy Bao Zixuan had big plans. Now the Ministry of National Defense is in trouble, and it is impossible to ignore this military vehicle based on its name alone. What's more, the appearance is so domineering, and I know a lot about GM and Ford's plans. It can be said that there is no comparison with Heiyun.

As a veteran, he prefers to use the military vehicle Heiyun.

What he couldn't figure out was how Bao Zixuan got in touch with the Barton family. The media previously reported the purpose of going to the George Patton Memorial Hall, but now the mystery can finally be revealed.

The Ministry of National Defense is also worried about the Barton family coming forward, and now it seems that the two parties have completed the bundling of interests. Casper Weinberg is destined to be disappointed, and there are new variables in the military vehicle order. This is not necessarily a bad thing for him. Heiyun Automobile arranged for him to connect and take responsibility.

Butt: "The name is very good. No wonder Mr. Bao went to the General George Patton Memorial Hall. It turned out to be to get authorization. The appearance is indeed worthy of the name of General Patton, but the performance is not good. Even if the Patton family agrees, the United States The soldiers would not agree."

Bao Zixuan: "The performance will definitely meet the technical requirements of the Ministry of National Defense for new military vehicles, and it will be improved as much as possible. Heiyun Automobile's investment in technology research and development is definitely the best in the world."

"A 340-horsepower engine can drive a medium-sized tank without any problem."

No amount of information could be revealed to him. Mr. Bao wanted to catch the U.S. military, GM, and Ford off guard. It is impossible to reveal too many technical secrets at this time, especially in terms of auxiliary power equipment.

Butt: "When will the Heiyun military vehicle be assembled?"

This is a reasonable question, after all, the Department of Defense is the purchaser. But asking this question at this time is a bit probing. I want to know when Heiyun can be produced, and then adjust the plan based on Heiyun's situation.

Even if you know the person’s purpose, you still have to answer. This is a conspiracy, and it doesn't matter if it's blatant.

Bao Zixuan: "One week, but Heiyun needs to undergo strict testing before it can be handed over to the Ministry of National Defense. If problems are found, the company will solve them internally first. This will be beneficial to everyone, and the Ministry of National Defense can also save a lot of trouble."

After walking around without seeing anything interesting, Brigadier General Butt left the Heiyun car.

In fact, it was not just him, the Ministry of National Defense sent all the teams to go back and recover. The results of the inspection are to be summarized, and the generals are to make a written report to Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger on all the information they have learned.

The military has always been very efficient in doing things, and this is the case in that country.

Seeing that several groups of people had returned, Casper Weinberg held an emergency meeting. He wanted to know the situation of each company as soon as possible. To put it bluntly, he didn't want any surprises.

Collecting money to do things is a matter of course. He must be tilted at this time, otherwise everyone will be unlucky. American capitalists are ruthless, and it will not be as simple as refunding the money and losing some profits.

Casper Weinberg: "You have worked hard these days, but now is not the time to relax. I hope you will share the information and plan a response."

With one look, Ian Wright immediately understood what it meant.

Ian Wright: "General Motors and Ford attach great importance to new military vehicles and have entered the assembly stage. It will be completed in three days, and after testing, it can be handed over to the Ministry of National Defense for inspection."

Judging from the current data, the performance can basically meet the requirements. It's just that it's not that good at storing electrical energy, and engineers are looking for solutions. We will continue to pay attention, and it will definitely not delay the replacement progress of military vehicles.

The protagonists are General Motors and Ford. At this time, the two companies are basically ready, so things will be much easier to handle. As for other car companies, it seems not that important.

Since it is a meeting, everyone must speak. On the surface, Americans are doing well.

After that, the military generals from Chrysler, Carter, and Oscars made reports respectively. They would be allocated some military vehicle shares anyway, so a brief report was still necessary.

Brigadier General Bute knew that it was his turn, but he was still unpopular as always, otherwise he would not have been the last one to report. It seems that his status in the Ministry of Defense is the same as that of Heiyun Automobile, which is so embarrassing.

The only difference is that Heiyun Group is well-known around the world; its technical strength is the best in the world, but it has no foundation. Since you are not welcome, saying nothing is the best option.

So Brigadier General Butt said a few words lightly, guessing that Bao Zixuan had something to hide from him. And I saw confidence in the other person's eyes, and he was determined to win. But I just don’t want the bureaucrats in the Ministry of Defense to know that it will be very fun when Heiyun Motors competes with Ford and General Motors.

Brigadier General Butt didn't know that he didn't report seriously and didn't even report the name of Heiyun's new military vehicle. Ian Wright almost took the blame and resigned, and Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberg was retained by Reagan.

At that time, even if some names were mentioned, senior officials of the Ministry of National Defense would pay enough attention to them. After all, the Patton family would not easily authorize the name of General George Patton for the sake of honor. If you don't understand the powerful performance of military vehicles, it will be difficult to buy such a family no matter how much money you spend.
