While Qingpi face was in some trouble, Lynch was having dinner with a federal senator.
The place they chose was very special. There was only one table like them in the open restaurant. There were three people beside the table.
Outside the window is the night view of buppen, and the whole city can be seen.
Lighting, night view and starry sky are perfectly integrated.
This private restaurant at the top of the mountain can make the head of a family have myocardial infarction at the price of each meal.
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 which the Committee belonging to the house of Lords is the "military Appropriation Committee".
The main task of the military appropriations committee is to examine and approve various budgets submitted by the Ministry of defense and the military every year, and then select some to allocate funds and some to reject. Generally speaking, if the national defense and the military want money and want a lot of money, they must convince most members of the Committee.
The water is very deep, but the real taxpayers of the Federation do not know. About 2% to 5% of the appropriations approved by the military appropriations committee will be distributed to each committee member in various ways.
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 persuade him, you need to hire this lobbying group. Hiring them requires money, and the amount of money depends on the budget that the Ministry of defense and the military want to pass.
This is the black curtain or black box operation in people's eyes, but it is so simple. The naked red fruit is displayed in the sun, and people turn a blind eye to it.
People who know it won't tell these things, and people who don't know it will never understand that those Congressmen who refuse to allocate funds give less most of the time - this is actually just a joke. We all know that Congressmen work day and night for the union, but they don't.
In any case, members of the military appropriations committee are a very important position. At the same time, it also involves some heavyweight military industrial groups in the Federation. If they want to sell their weapons to the federal defense and military, they must first let their goods enter the arms list, and then get the approval of the military appropriations committee.
In this process, they will try every means to convince everyone. This is a big business!
In short, every member who has devoted his life to the country and the people is very hard.
As for why they are rich, that is another matter.
Just like now, the clothes on the congressman sitting opposite Lynch are worth 50000 yuan. You know, this is federal sol, not Gary who has no value.
According to the current federal minimum hourly wage law, the minimum monthly income of an ordinary unskilled worker is about 241 yuan, an increase of more than a dozen yuan.
They can only get a salary of nearly 3000 yuan a year. They can't afford the senator's outfit for about 18 years.
What's more irritating is that this outfit is only one of dozens in the senator's family. He can keep a person from eating or drinking for more than ten or twenty years anytime and anywhere.
Sure enough, these contributions are worth it for the freedom of the Federation and the equality of the people.
"I've heard of this project and the Military Commission approved it, but some of us don't think it's suitable to start now." while enjoying the expensive dinner, the senator talked about what they were talking about.
The project in his mouth is a project submitted by the Navy before. During the naval battle against gavra, the Navy found many problems. For example, the military quality of sailors is generally low. For example, there are still some defects in the design of some capital ships, such as
For example, there are many such problems. It is reasonable to find out the most critical ones after discovering the problems, and then apply for military expenditure for transformation.
But some projects are not so easy to pass, and these committee members don't always give the green light for money. Occasionally, they will insist.
For example, they will not approve some projects that are obviously to cheat military spending. The reason why they have such a bottom line is that they don't want to give political enemies an excuse to attack them.
What they are discussing is the R & D plan for aircraft.
The Federal Navy still has a lot of room for progress 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 there is no way to make up for this gap in a short time by acting and training. This combat ability in a variety of complex battlefield situations depends more on a variety of experience than pure rote. Of course, the latter is also very important.
So is there any way to make up for this obvious weakness?
Of course, that is to make the limit line of sight and over line of sight into visual line of sight. For example, rapid launch observation of hot-air balloons is a method, but it is not high enough and is subject to too many restrictions.
They put their attention back on the aircraft, and some civil flights that have become increasingly mature have initially had the ability to carry out free observation over the battlefield.
So a plan called "maritime reconnaissance ship" appeared in the bill of the Military Commission and was passed. In a nutshell, it is to build an engineering ship without strong attack power, which is to provide a runway for aircraft to take off and land.
In this way, the cost is cheap, the speed is not slow, and it is also convenient for maintenance. It is really not good. It can only float on the water.
In case of war, the takeoff aircraft can send back the reconnaissance situation by airborne radio, and can also provide artillery coordinate correction for over the horizon.
But the military appropriations committee thinks this is a fucking joke. Those aircraft often crash when they land on the flat ground. Now they have to put the landing place on the bumpy ships. The person who came up with this idea must have a bag in his mind.
They think it's ridiculous. Aircraft technology is not mature enough, far from military level. This project is likely to be just for personal gain.
The military did a lot of such things. In the past, when escapism was prevalent, the military seemed to be victims of paranoia. They reported many projects, most of which were approved because of the times and political environment.
For example, establish a southern resistance line to prevent some invaders from landing from the south.
These projects waste a lot of money, and eventually they don't even fart. They also spend a lot of money on maintenance every year. Many groups have accused the military Appropriation Committee of abusing its power and colluding with the military to seek benefits.
At this stage, it's best not to approve those plans that seem unreliable for the time being. After all, the election is coming, and now any small things may be magnified.
The Conservative Party has completely given up the presidential election, but that doesn't mean they will also give up their seats in Congress.
Lynch was not disappointed with the congressman's direct rejection. "Valuable things should not be rejected. I firmly believe that aircraft will dominate the battlefield in the future."
The congressman smiled and did not go on. He had heard too many similar words. One can dominate the battlefield and the other can dominate the battlefield. A few simple words could not convince him at all.
Lynch came today not only to represent himself and Truman, but also to get the friendship of the military. It was hard for the military to get stuck in this project. Lynch took the initiative to lobby.
As long as he persuades several key people, he can promote changes in the whole military appropriations committee, and the congressman in front of him is one of them.
He said carelessly while he was handling the dishes in the plate gracefully, "you may not know that I set up an aircraft research company with $15 million..."
The congressman smiled modestly, "that has nothing to do with me, Lynch." his position is very firm, and even hinted a little, "if you really want to talk about this project, I suggest that after the election, Congress will be a little more stable at that time. Now some people dance very happily."
Lynch continued with disapproval, "your son will be one of the shareholders of this company."
The congressman was stunned for a moment. He frowned, "you shouldn't do this..."
Lynch sent the food to the import and bit it. The fresh juice was squeezed out of the fiber of the meat. Some people said it was myoglobin, but he thought it was fucking blood, cow blood.
He chewed and occasionally showed a touch of pink on his white teeth. He put down his knife and fork and looked at the congressman, "you may not know much about your son. He has a unique talent in aircraft design (even the Lord should be jealous). In order to show my respect for knowledge, I am willing to exchange 5% of my equity for this design."
Once again, there was a very short pause in the thinking of the congressman who had a bad face. The unhappiness on his face disappeared in an instant and was replaced by a kind of self blame.
"You know, I've always been very busy, either in the office or in the study every day, so that I ignored some of my family's feelings, and didn't find that he was so talented in this regard..."
"I respect their choice, but I will not give you more convenience in this matter because of the participation of my family. This is not my style."
Lynch 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 a decision. "I'm sorry, I can't give you more help in this matter."
"By the way, what's the name of the project you just mentioned?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
