Just got off the plane and greeted Benjamin Arthur's chief of staff, as well as senators from the weapons review committee representing the interests of the major military industry in the United States.

Some of the reporters beside him couldn't wait to shout Li Changheng's name.

Then other reporters couldn't help but start asking questions loudly, wanting to know the first-hand inside story about the desert journey from him.

Of course, Li Changheng would not talk nonsense on such occasions, and waved to the reporters who were blocked by security guards six or seven meters away.

After taking a few photos, the reporter took the lead and got on the main barrel car specially sent by Benjamin Arthur.

The Army One of this era was not a bulletproof car produced by Cadillac, but Lincoln.

Just from the outside, it is just a square elongated version of the luxury car.

Moreover, just by looking at the thickness of the glass, you know that bulletproof technology should only be able to protect against pistols.

As for the bulletproof ability of the car door, the dull sound of the door closing is not heavy, which makes Li Changheng wonder whether the bulletproof level can reach level 4.

No wonder Lincoln will be replaced by Cadillac in the future, which makes Li Changheng regret not bringing his Rolls-Royce bulletproof car over.

The convoy drove for half an hour and drove directly into the Capitol.

Before getting off the bus, I saw Boto's president Payne, Grumman's president Brett Elman, and the bosses of several other weapons manufacturers, crossed several senators and greeted them with an expression of eagerness and expectation.

No need to guess, this group of weapons dealers must have deliberately released the news from Shat and learned that they were holding a weapon order worth US$1.7 billion.

As soon as the car stopped, Payne and Brett squeezed away the others and stood by the door, one left and one right.

While helping Li Changheng open the car door, he also wanted to know the specific content of the order as soon as possible so that he could get the weapons he could produce as soon as possible.

Then exchange profits with other companies with orders of weapons that you cannot produce.

"Long time no see, boss."

Li Changheng, who walked out of the car, shook hands with Payne with a smile, and then said nothing about orders, but instead asked in a low voice, "Where has the development of Apache?"

Payne and his eyes lit up when they heard this. They didn't understand that Li Changheng had found a potential customer for Apache.

And because Grumman used Botoon-produced engines and missiles on the F14 project, the two companies have had close contact with each other in the past or two years.

Apache was Li Changheng personally put forward the design requirements and was extremely optimistic about the project.

So from the end of 1973 to the present year and a half, the two companies not only worked together, but also invested more than 100 million US dollars in R&D funds before they received the Navy's R&D funds.

"The first prototype has been built, just wait for testing. If you have time, we will arrange a test tomorrow."

Li Changheng nodded and saw General, Thor, and Lockheed and Martin’s heads who had not yet merged at this time all looked at him with anxious expressions, knowing that this is not a good time to say more.

Nodding to Payne and Breit, "The test flight will be scheduled tomorrow afternoon."

"I understand, boss."

General Motors was indeed controlled by Morgan for a period of time, but as General Motors became bigger and stronger in both military and civilian industries, Morgan had to downplay its presence at General Motors.

Although Morgan Stanley still holds many shares of General Motors, the two companies at this time can only be described as mutual assistance, rather than Morgan Stanley's subsidiary companies.

As for Lockheed and Thor, they are the same as Grumman. Because they are relatively pure military-industrial groups and their market value is not high, they are infiltrated and controlled by several consortiums.

But everyone knows that Li Changheng is a shareholder of Boon and Grumman. In addition, he has successively won England and island countries in the F14 project, and his influence has even surpassed Boon and Grumman's board of directors.

Now he is carrying several weapons orders from desert countries. General Motors and other companies are trying to please and win over Li Changheng, but are worried that he will make some excessive demands because he is disagreeing with Morgan Stanley.

In addition, when Iro's previous issue of purchasing F14 and F15, I was forced by many consortiums to give up Iro's fighter market.

General Motors and other companies are worried that if Li Changheng is angry, they will directly exclude them from the orders or maximize the interests of several companies.

Unfortunately, several GM companies didn't know that Li Changheng wanted to have a f15, and even the f16 that was about to produce a prototype, entered Yilang.

Moreover, his target this time is not the weapon market of Shate and other companies, but the idle funds calculated by these rich people with tens of billions and hundreds of billions of dollars.

Of course, he would definitely not talk about this topic.

Instead, you can use the orders you have in hand and more weapon orders in the future.

Let’s talk to various consortiums about whether Citigroup and Belford Investment Company can become the largest underwriter in the market when it comes to underwriting subprime financial products.

It would be even better if we could get an invention fee from major consortiums including Citi as an inventor.

However, Li Changheng also knew that it was basically impossible to get the money.

According to the lawyers' group, new combination financial products cannot be registered for patents.

Because the model of high-quality mortgage loans and subprime mortgage loans is itself taking advantage of the predecessors. If you really want to worry about it, the entire Wall Street has to pay patent fees for the inventors of high-quality mortgage loans and subprime mortgage loans.

However, if Belford Investment Company can become the first underwriters, the company's market value will definitely double, or even two or three times.

After the investment company's market value soars, even Citi shareholders will definitely think about investing in Belford.

Other consortiums and investment banks will not watch Li Changheng eat meat alone.

By then, Li Changheng's response would be very simple, with the condition that part of the money would be added to each company's shares and he would give up at least half of Belford's shares.

When Citi's market value rose by 8 billion again to US$24 billion, he had the money to buy 2.5% of Citi's shares again.

Like other consortiums, it constantly penetrates into the other party's camp, and can also make many consortiums and big families feel relieved to regard him as a part of the circle because of their own compromises.

"This is our first time meeting, Este?"

Este Duval didn't care at all about Li Changheng's tone, which clearly contained a hint of arrogance and the meaning of superiors to subordinates.

And before Li Changheng took the initiative to extend his hand, Ester put his hands on his waist and lowered his head slightly, "I'm so happy to see you, Lord Selby."

When Li Changheng heard the Lord, he laughed. Although Este had to bow his head for the order, he also expressed in vain that it was not necessarily a good thing to be the top rank of the United States and England.

Thinking that the design of the m1 was provided by Chrysler, Li Changheng, who had always been very stingy, immediately asked with a smile, "Can 100 m1 main battle tanks be delivered to my customers within two years?"
