Text 0667 Lynch's Way of Persuasion

tripod

Just when Qing Pi Lian was facing some troubles, Lynch was having dinner with a federal senator.

The place they chose is very special. There is only one table like them in the empty restaurant. There are three people on the table.

Outside the window is the night view of Buppen, and the whole city is completely in sight.

The lights, night scenes, and starry sky are perfectly integrated.

The price of every meal in this private restaurant on the top of the mountain can make the head of a family myocardial infarction.

In addition to Lynch and Mr. Truman, there is only one senator left, who is also a member of the Military Appropriations Committee.

There are many committees in the Federal Congress. Among the committees belonging to the House of Lords, the most famous is the "Military Appropriations Committee."

The main task of the military appropriation committee is to approve the various budgets submitted by the Ministry of National Defense and the military each year, and then select some of them for appropriation and select some for rejection. Generally speaking, if the national defense and the military want money and want a lot of money, they It is necessary to persuade the majority of the committee members.

The water here is very deep, but the real federal taxpayers are not clear. About two to five percent of the funds approved by the military appropriations committee each year will be allocated to each committee in various ways. Hands.

For example, a committee member only accepts the lobbying of a special lobbying group, and the main members of this lobbying group are his relatives or even his son.

If you want to convince him, you need to hire this lobby group, and you need money to hire them, and the amount of this money depends on the budget that the Ministry of Defense and the military want to pass.

This is the shady or black box operation in people's eyes, but it is so simple, the undisguised red fruit is displayed in the sun, and people turn a blind eye to it.

Those who know it will not tell these things, and those who don’t know it will never understand that the members of Congress who refuse to allocate funds mostly give less-this is actually just a joke. Everyone knows that members of Congress do the federal Working day and night, they are not like this.

In any case, the members of the Military Appropriations Committee are a very important position. At the same time, it also involves some heavyweight military industry groups in the federal government. If they want to sell their weapons to the federal defense and military, they must first sell their products. Enter the armament list, and then get the approval of the Military Appropriation Committee.

In the process, they will try every means to convince everyone, this is big business!

In short, every committee member who dedicated his life for the country and the people worked very hard.

As for why they have money, that's another matter.

Just like now, the clothes worn by the congressman sitting opposite Lynch is worth more than 50,000 yuan. You must know that this is the Federal Sol, not Galil, who has no value.

According to the current federal "Minimum Hourly Wage Law", the minimum monthly income of an ordinary unskilled worker is roughly 241 yuan, which is more than a dozen yuan higher than before.

They can only get a salary of close to three thousand yuan a year, and they need not to eat and for about eighteen years to afford this senator's outfit.

What's even more annoying is that this outfit is only one of the dozens of possible sets in the senator's family. He can keep a person without food or drink for more than ten or twenty years anytime and anywhere.

Sure enough, for the freedom of the Union and the equality of the people, these dedications are worthwhile.

"I've heard about this project, and the military committee passed it, but some of us think it's not suitable for launching now." While enjoying this expensive dinner, the senator was chatting. Things.

The project he said was a project previously submitted by the Navy. During the naval battle against Gefula, the Navy found many problems. For example, the military quality of sailors was generally low. For example, there were still some defects in the design of some battleships. For example...

There are many such examples. After discovering the problem, it is reasonable to find out the most critical ones and then apply for military spending for transformation.

But some projects are not so easy to pass. These committee members will not give the green light every time for money, and occasionally they will have some persistence.

For example, they will not approve some projects that are clearly intended to defraud the military. The reason why they have such a bottom line is purely because they don't want to give political opponents an excuse to attack them.

What they are discussing is about the research and development plan of the aircraft.

There is still a lot of room for improvement in the performance of the Federal Navy in the aiming and positioning of extreme visual range and beyond visual range, which is commonly known as not good enough.

The Federal Navy believes that this short-term gap cannot be made up by acting and training. This combat capability in a variety of complex battlefield situations relies more on various experiences, rather than pure rote memorization. The person is also very important.

So is there any way to make up for this obvious shortcoming?

Of course there is, that is to make limit visual range and beyond visual range into visual visual range, like fast-lifting to observe a hot air balloon is one way, but it is not high enough, and it is subject to too many restrictions.

They turned their attention back to the aircraft, and some of the increasingly mature civilian flights initially possessed the ability to perform free observation over the battlefield.

So a plan called "Maritime Reconnaissance Ship" appeared in the military committee's proposal and was passed. In simple terms, this is to build an engineering ship that does not have strong offensive power, which is to provide aircraft with a take-off and landing. track.

This is cheap and at the same time the speed is not slow, and it is also easy to maintain. It can only be floated on the water.

In the event of a war, the take-off aircraft can use the onboard radio to send back the detection situation, and it can also provide the bombardment coordinate correction for the beyond visual range.

But the Military Appropriation Committee thinks this is a **** joke. Those aircraft often crash when they land on flat ground. Now they have to put the landing place on the bumpy ship. Those who come up with this idea are sure. There are packages.

They think it is too ridiculous. The technology of the aircraft is not mature enough at all, far from the level of military use. It is very likely that this project is just for the purpose of using power for personal gain.

The military has done a lot of this kind of thing. In the past when escapism prevailed, the military seemed to be victims of paranoia. They reported many projects, most of which were approved because of the times and political circumstances.

For example, the establishment of the southern line of resistance to prevent some invaders from landing from the south.

These projects waste a lot of money, and in the end, even the fart is useless. A large amount of money is spent on maintenance every year. Many groups have accused the Military Appropriation Committee of abusing its power and colluding with the military for profit.

At this stage, it is best not to approve those plans that seem unreliable for the time being. After all, the general election is about to come, and now any small things may be magnified.

The Conservative Party has completely given up on the presidential election, but this does not mean that they will also give up their seats in Congress.

Lynch was not disappointed with the congressman’s direct rejection. “Things of value should not be rejected. I firmly believe that aircraft will dominate the future battlefield.”

The congressman smiled and did not continue. He had heard too many similar things, this one can dominate the battlefield, and the other one can dominate the battlefield. A few simple words can't convince him at all.

Lynch came today not only to represent himself and Truman, but also to get the friendship of the military. The military project was uncomfortable when it was stuck. Lynch took the initiative to lobby.

He only needs to persuade a few key people to promote changes in the entire military appropriation committee, and the congressman in front of him is one of them.

While he was elegantly manipulating the dishes on the plate, he said casually, "Speaking of which you may not know, I used 15 million to set up an aircraft research company..."

The congressman smiled reservedly, "That has nothing to do with me, Lynch." His stance was firm and even hinted a little, "If you really want to talk about this project, I suggest that after the general election, that At that time, Congress will be a little more stable, but now some people dance very happily."

Lynch disapprovingly continued to say ~lightnovelpub.net~Your son will be one of the shareholders of this company. "

The congressman froze for a moment, and he frowned, "You shouldn't do this..."

Lynch took the food into his mouth and bit, and the tender juice was squeezed out of the fiber of the meat. Some people said it was myoglobin, but he thought it was **** blood, cow blood.

He chewed, and there was a tinge of pink on the occasionally exposed white teeth. He put the knife and fork down and looked at the congressman, "You may not know much about your son, he is unique in the design of the aircraft (even the gods). To show my respect for knowledge, I am willing to exchange 5% of the equity for this design drawing."

The thinking of the congressman who had some bad expressions once again had a very short pause. The unhappiness on his face disappeared in an instant, and he was replaced by a kind of self-blame.

"You know, I have always been very busy, either in the office or in the study, so that I overlooked some of the feelings of my family, and I didn't realize that he was so talented in this aspect..."

"I respect their choice, but I will not give you more convenience because of my family's participation in this matter. This is not my style of acting."

Lin Qi nodded slightly, "I understand, I just don't want to have some accidents in the future, you know, timely communication can ensure that there is no misunderstanding between us."

The congressman put his fists on the table. He nodded a few times and seemed to have made some decision. "I'm sorry, I can't help you more in this matter."

"By the way, what is the name of the project you just mentioned?"
