Chapter 774 - High Fees (4th Update, Brothers Subscribe to Monthly Passes!) )

Seeing that the two bigwigs were moved, Zhou Dapeng was even more energetic, and went to get a pen and paper.

Write hard and write on paper. It wasn't until a whole blank sheet of paper was written that Zhou Dapeng was a little excited to put the text he had written in front of Liu Lang and Situ Meitang.

This is a list of aircraft equipment purchases drafted by Chow Dapeng himself, as well as personnel composition, compensation of American personnel, and total cost accounting.

There are 60 "F11C-III" fighter-bombers exported by the United States, with a unit price of 25,000 US dollars, totaling 1.5 million US dollars.

There are 30 "A12 Shella" attack aircraft, with a unit price of 27,000 US dollars, a total of 810,000 US dollars.

Two to three engine spare parts and other spare parts are required for each aircraft, which costs about $1.5 million.

200 pilots are recruited, including 100 Chinese pilots, 100 American pilots, and 400 ground and aircraft maintenance personnel (ground staff can be recruited and hired by China, but 200 can be subtracted). Pilots are paid $500 to $800 per month, and maintenance technicians are paid $300 to $500 per month.

At the same time, pilots enjoy a flight subsidy, and for every 100 hours of flight, they will be rewarded with 500 US dollars; Enjoy a combat subsidy, 200 US dollars for each battle, and 500 US dollars for shooting down an enemy aircraft.

That's not all, Zhou Dapeng even listed the materials required for logistics supply and so on. Come to think of it, these data are not stuck in his mind for a day or two, it may be a month or even a few months, otherwise, no one can list all these detailed data so quickly.

It's just that, according to what he listed, the logistics and material support will be put aside first, and the aircraft and accessories alone will cost nearly four million US dollars. Looking at the salaries of those personnel, the monthly salary of pilots alone, according to the number of 200 people he said, averages about 1230,000 US dollars per month, and this year can get another 1.5 million US dollars. There are also maintenance technicians who are not cheaply paid, and they may also need 1 million US dollars a year, plus ground support and various support personnel, the investment in the salary of personnel alone is nearly 4 million US dollars a year.

If these materials are transported back to China, and then equipped with enough ammunition, fuel and various supports, that is to say, the investment in the first year will be as high as about 9 million US dollars, and the subsequent investment will be even more amazing.

Looking at the two bigwigs looking at the various materials and prices listed by themselves and inhaling the cold air, Zhou Dapeng touched his head a little embarrassed, and said: "My dream is to be an air commander, these are all things that I have carefully pondered in the past two years, if you want an air force to have strong combat effectiveness, you have to use the strongest equipment and the best treatment, but the money is used a little too much." ”

"Hey, Roc! You don't have a lot of money! That's too much. Situ Meitang touched his long hair and said with a sigh. Do you know? We have two churches in Hongmen, how much is the total income in a year? More than 5 million US dollars. Don't look at the more than 5 million dollars a lot, but there are more than 50,000 brothers and their families in my Hongmen who rely on the hall to eat! On average, 1,000 dollars per family is not enough.

On the territory of the Americans, it is difficult for us to compete with the Americans because they look down on us Chinese, and it is difficult for us to grow our business. Hongyun Boxing Gym is the only one that relies on fishing for deviations, but it is already the main source of income for Xieshengtang. ”

Situ Meitang said it lightly, as if he was just explaining to Zhou Dapeng, who was young and didn't know much about Hongmen's finances, but Liu Lang listened in awe.

In the past time and space, history donated nearly 15 million US dollars to Situ Meitang's "New York Anti-Japanese Charity Federation" in eight years, which is just an understatement. Even many modern people will look at this huge amount of money at the price of 80 years from now, and think that it is not much, but less than 2 million US dollars a year.

In fact, based on the prices and purchasing power at the time, this huge amount of money is almost equivalent to more than a billion dollars in the future. You must know that the entire US government, for its own interests in the Far East, gave China only $2 billion in aid during the war. That is a superpower that can launch 10 aircraft carriers a year and produce more than 10,000 aircraft and equip millions of troops, but it is only a donation of about 100 times more to these tens of thousands of Chinese people who are struggling to survive in the continental United States.

And in the case that tens of thousands of people are relying on the not very rich income of Hongmen to survive, they lose 1.8 million US dollars every year, that is, they donate one-third of the income of the entire gang, which also means that each Hongmen gang loses nearly one-third of their income in a year, and what it means to a family will be self-evident.

But such a donation is a donation, that is, eight years.

This is also a group of people who contributed to China's war against the invaders, Chinese.

Undoubtedly, the words of the Hongmen boss pushed the hopeful Zhou Dapeng into the abyss.

Everyone, has a dream. The young Chow Dapeng is no exception.

Returning to his grandfather's hometown to fight to defend his homeland was a recent dream. It has always been his dream to be a good air commander commanding a powerful air force to fight. The two dreams are not in conflict, and they can be well integrated, and they are about to come true, but they are rejected because of the funds, which makes the young Zhou Dapeng very frustrated.

Frustrating, to be exact. The dream died almost before it began, which hit every young person with a dream a big blow, and Zhou Dapeng's tears were about to fall.

"Hehe, Master Situ, in fact, Dapeng's idea is not bad, although the capital requirements are high, but it is not worth a try. Yesterday I won 3 million US dollars in cash as the upfront capital, and at the latest two months later, the remaining 6 million US dollars will be transferred to the account of the Anti-Japanese Charity Federation you want to establish. However, I hope that the name of the Chinese Commercial Group will not appear in the donation book. Liu Lang thought for a moment and said.

"How can this work, how can the Chinese business group be funded by the family, our company Tumeitang and tens of thousands of children of Hongmen also want to contribute to their homeland." When Situ Meitang heard Liu Lang say this, he was first happy, and then he was a little displeased.

Liu Lang saw it and knew that all the money had been taken down by himself, which made the Hongmen boss a little depressed, and then smiled lightly and continued: "Master Situmen, don't get me wrong, this is just an early investment, in fact, if you want to form an air force with combat effectiveness, these investments are not enough, especially recruiting pilots and technicians requires a lot of expenses." Of course, more importantly, you need to contact the national government and then communicate with the US government to get their approval, and it will take a lot of money to convince those politicians. I'm afraid that I have to bother the master of Situ. ”

As soon as Liu Lang said this, Situ Meitang's face softened, but a trace of surprise welled up on his face: "Wouldn't it be better if you contacted the national government, Commander Liu?" This is for you。。。。。。 ”

Although Situ Meitang's words were not very clear, the implication of Liu Lang was very clear, and he was obviously very puzzled why Liu Lang would push such a big award and meritorious service out. You must know that the Chinese government has an aviation unit with 100 aircraft for nothing without spending a penny, and that is definitely pie in the sky, if Liu Lang's trip to the United States contributed to this, this colonel must not immediately become a major general, and be properly promoted, even if the bald boss does not wait to see him again.

But Liu Lang really can't rush to the front anymore.

In the first battle of Songhu, Liu Lang came out of nowhere and ended the headquarters of the Japanese Seventh Wing with one cannon, so that the Chinese army annihilated more than 4,000 Japanese invaders, and won the Order of the Blue Sky and White Sun, which can be said to be full of luck.

In the battle of the Great Wall, Liu Lang led his command to resist the Eighth Division for ten days according to the danger of the terrain, and successfully attacked its heavy artillery troops, and finally beat the 20,000 people of the Eighth Division who lost their heavy weapons into a lump, which can also be described as strength and luck. Even if he refused ten gold medals from the bald boss in the battle, in view of his monstrous military exploits of Liu Lang, the bald boss could only endure it for the time being, did not deprive him of his military rights, but did not promote his official and finally kicked the independent regiment out of the Central Army and threw it to Liu Xiang's Seventh Army, which was the poorest equipped.

However, the bald boss kept mixing sand with the independent regiment already showed that he was very wary of Liu Lang, a guy who could fight but was not very obedient, and was thinking about this tiger who was thrown into a place where birds don't.

If Liu Lang goes abroad and comes back to a Chinese mercenary aviation unit, won't the bald boss's vigilance burst immediately? In the United States, a place where he is not familiar with life, Liu Lang can toss such a big trick, if he is given a few more years of smooth sailing in China, what will it be?

If the disobedient Liu Tuanzuo had led more than 20,000 troops that day, it is estimated that the bald man would not have been able to sleep well.

Before the war broke out, Liu Tuanzuo could only make a fortune in silence, making the bald boss slowly forget himself. When the war begins, no matter how many packs of wolves the tiger brings, it will be impossible to control the supreme commander of the Chinese theater.
