C833 Head to the south wall
You, a private company, can't sell your own products, yet you asked the people here to give you an explanation. Who owes you an explanation? In terms of status on paper, who here isn't a bit better than you at this meeting?
This was why Ye Kun was worried and scared. What made him even more worried was that Xia Lei would first reveal in an extremely high profile that the Rayma Group's weapons were the most advanced weapons in the world. A year later, even though all the orders for the external models were sold, the best internal models had yet to receive any orders. Wasn't this implying that the relevant people didn't pay any attention to him?
It was something that even Ye Kun could not understand. At this time, he was like a young man who had just come out of school full of ideals, yet had no knowledge of the real world. He was not mature at all.
Some people sneered, waiting to see a good show.
Yu Shanhe looked at Xia Lei coldly. Others thought that Xia Lei was an idiot, but he could tell that Xia Lei was shooting at him!
"Mr. Xia." Ling Hao spoke, "I do not agree with you saying that. We are all military workers, and we all know that changing heavy equipment in the army is a very important thing. First, we have to complete the comprehensive assessment, and then we will discuss the topic of replacing that heavy equipment. As for our Shenzhou Industrial Group, which of the chariots we designed and produced didn't take a few years or even ten years to enter the army? Your Scavenger infantry fighting vehicle may be very outstanding, but you are too impatient. We need to use a few years to ten years to finish this journey, do you want to take just a few months? "
The venue was once again filled with the sound of discussion.
The leader of the meeting also spoke in a low tone with several military representatives.
Yu Shanhe, who was seated beside him, was silent. He looked at Xia Lei with eyes filled with hatred.
In Yu Shanhe's opinion, this was no longer a venue, but a battlefield.
On one side of the battlefield was the army, while on the other was a lone knight full of heroism and one of his crafty attendants. The disparity in strength was simply incomparable. However, this Knight had launched an attack on a large number of soldiers and horses with the momentum of breaking through the south wall!
"Mr. Xia." Ling Hao looked at Xia Lei, "You are the first private business owner to enter the military industry market, and your support is unprecedented. You should be grateful, you shouldn't complain about the procedures that require you to leave. As far as I'm concerned, I'm disappointed, even disheartened, by what you're saying. "
This sentence was akin to saying 'ungrateful bastard'.
"Right, does he think this market revolves around him alone? Which of our weapons didn't get the order after repeated evaluations? "
"This person truly doesn't know what's good for him. He gave him more support than anyone else, yet he still says that now."
"I've heard that the state exempted him from more than 20 billion dollars of loans. Isn't that enough support? He's not satisfied yet, but he's too greedy, isn't he? "
"An ungrateful wolf like him should be driven out of the field of military work. Ever since I had him, the previous atmosphere of unity has disappeared."
"To put it bluntly, he's the snail that fell into a pot of soup."
"Snail?" Hmph, I think it's mouse poop. "
These words made Yu Shanhe smile.
Ye Kun quietly pulled on Xia Lei's pants, gesturing for him to sit down, and did not say anymore.
But Xia Lei just stood there, straight as a bronze statue, cold and hard.
"Mr. Xia." Ling Hao continued to attack Xia Lei, "I think you are mistaken. It's not that someone is unfair to you, it's just that you are asking for too much. Everything has a process, a process that requires ten steps to complete. You can't count on one step to complete it, can you? If you pass through with one step, then wouldn't it be unfair to us who have taken ten steps to complete the entire process? Mr. Xia, do you think I'm right? "
Everyone was watching.
Xia Lei laughed, "No."
Ling Hao also laughed, "Then tell me, where did I say anything wrong?"
Xia Lei replied, "All of them are wrong."
Ling Hao frowned, his gaze cold.
Xia Lei said, "Let me give you an example. I liken our military field to a world of football. I'm C, I'm Mercy, I'm Suarez, and I should be playing in Real Madrid and Barcelona. But you, you want me to start playing from a Chinese team or even a B team, one step at a time until I reach the same level as you guys in the league. This is indeed fair to you, but is it correct? "
The venue was once again filled with discussions.
Xia Lei ignored those voices, "The international environment has changed drastically. The United States and its allies are pressing down on us and putting up numerous obstacles on our path to rise. I have the ability to close the gap between us and the Americans, or even to surpass them, so that they can no longer threaten us with force. Again, as I've just mentioned, I'm the best star in the world, I can win the Asian Cup, the World Cup, even the World Cup, so why do you want me to play in the junior league? By the time I reached the same level as you guys, I had already passed the peak of my career. What I want is a pathway that leads to the world's top arena! My opponent is Rhine Metal Corp, not everyone present here. "
Xia Lei finished his speech.
"How arrogant!"
"Young man, you're looking down on everyone else!"
"Comparing the Rayma Group with the Lockheed Martin Corp, he really can say it. He just took out a F35, I'm afraid the Rayma Group won't be able to create it in 50 years, right?"
"He really can't brag about the tax. Isn't he ashamed?"
The Leader who supported the meeting raised his hand and lightly said, "Mr. Xia, I agree with a part of what you said, but there are also some parts that I disagree with. You do have the ability, but don't make anything special. We are a group, and we have a common mission, which is to build a nation's national defense. On this premise, we cannot create any special passages. But you said that your opponent is the Rhine Metal Corp, the Lockheed Martin Corp, and I admire you very much. I think highly of you! As for the questions you asked, we'll discuss them after the meeting. "
The entire venue burst into applause.
This was an excuse mixed with mud, and also hinted at the fact that Xia Lei needed to sit down after he finished his speech.
But Xia Lei was still standing, "The Rayma Group has already started its tank project, at the same time has started its new material project, as well as its artificial intelligence's militarization project. Both of these projects have enormous strategic benefits. Personally, I don't care about money or honor. I can wait, but can the strategic interests of the country wait? To tell the truth, some departments and figures in the United States and Japan still have plans to assassinate me, because I've affected their strategic interests. Do I have to wait until the Americans and the Japanese succeed before they give me that passage? "
The leader who was in charge of the meeting was startled, it was not because he disliked Xia Lei's high profile, but was instead curious why such a smart person like Xia Lei did not secretly make such a request, and yet did he insist on making such a request?
Whatever the claim, whatever the purpose, isn't it inappropriate or even foolish to place yourself in the wrong place?
"Xia Lei!" Yu Shanhe finally spoke, his words mighty, "Don't go overboard. Everything has a process, and everyone comes through it this way. Yet, you want it to be special? If you are talented, you can be proud! "
"I didn't mean anything else."
Yu Shanhe interrupted Xia Lei, "I don't care what you mean, go talk to me later. It's not right that you take up the time when someone is speaking. Sit down, I'll talk to you after the meeting. "
The entire venue thought that Xia Lei was doing something stupid, but only Yu Shanhe's hands were secretly holding onto a handful of cold sweat. Xia Lei was trying to mess around here because he only had one goal in mind, and that was to avoid the obstacles he had set, and even to put him in a dangerous situation!
Speaking of Xia Lei's contribution points, who would do anything to him? Also, which of the three projects that Xia Lei was working on were not related to the strategic interests of the country? With just these two points, for Xia Lei to say such words on such an occasion, no one would actually do anything to him! If there really was someone who was questioned and punished, then it would definitely not be Xia Lei, but him, Yu Shanhe!
This was the scariest part of Xia Lei ? he had fired his most suitable spear at the most appropriate spot!
In the beginning, Yu Shanhe didn't think much of it, but when Xia Lei didn't even give face to the leader of the meeting, he suddenly realized that danger was approaching. This was also why he didn't want Xia Lei to continue talking. He had to make Xia Lei shut up.
But Xia Lei refused to shut his mouth, "I have a good project and the ability to change the current situation, but my power alone is limited. I need more support, and I don't have time to spend on the process. "
"Xia Lei!" Yu Shanhe could no longer control his emotions, he slapped the table hard: "Why do you not understand my words, I told you to talk to me later!"
Xia Lei said indifferently: "I'm not talking to you because I don't believe you."
Since he had chosen to open fire in this situation, he couldn't afford to hold back! If he lost this opportunity, it would be difficult for him to find one in the future.
Yu Shanhe shifted his gaze to the security guards at the door. His gaze was a hint.
A few security guards walked towards Xia Lei's direction.
At that moment, a person walked out from a small door.
It wasn't anyone else, it was Fan.
Fan Fan directly walked in front of Xia Lei and placed a piece of paper on the table.
Xia Lei glanced at it.
The contents of the slip of paper were very simple. There was only a single sentence: Go ahead and do it.
The corner of Xia Lei's mouth curled into a smile, and the pressure on his body suddenly disappeared.
Fan Fan Fan moved close to Xia Lei's ear and whispered: "You really dare to say that. You have used your head to knock away the obstruction that some people had set for you. However, I like your character and courage. "
Xia Lei laughed.
Fan Fan's voice became even softer. "Just do what you should do. The rest will be taken care of." No one can obstruct the progress of this country. No one. Whoever blocks the way will be smashed to pieces. Do you understand? "
Xia Lei nodded.
He knew in his heart that he had shot and wounded his target.
"Alright, let's continue with the meeting. I'll come to you in the evening with an order. " Fan Fan said.
Xia Lei, "..."
Fan Fan turned and left. She glanced at the security guards, who had stopped when she came out of the small door.
Xia Lei sat down, his entire body relaxed.
However, Yu Shanhe was unable to relax, as he did not sense at all that a cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
