Anthony looked at William, who had his eyes closed, for a few seconds before saying, "However, many of the people in the middle and upper echelons of the company are politicians who left with Miss Catherine. I'm worried that …"
"It's okay," William waved his hand and interrupted Anthony, "The defense company is a little special. These people who used to be politicians are now what we need.
Secondly, the sales of the company's products are controlled by me. As long as there are no betrayals or corruption, I don't care about anything else. You just have to ensure financial independence. "
Whether it was the company or any group, William still knew the necessary supervision. However, with Sunday around, William was not worried that the internal affairs of the company could escape Sunday's eyes.
"No problem, Boss," Anthony nodded solemnly, then smiled and said, "The other shareholders probably know that the company can't survive without you, so they don't interfere in the financial affairs.
That's why they didn't interfere with our finances. They only asked us to let them find a financial expert to check the accounts every six months. "
"Mm, that's not a problem. These are all necessary measures. Let them check it out."
They talked about some more details and sent Anthony off at ten o 'clock in the evening. Sunday suddenly reported, "Sir, I have to remind you that as I am responsible for more and more things, my main server will soon be unable to meet the huge number of calculations.
You have to spend money for me, Master. "
William rolled his eyes, "Damn it, how long has it been since I upgraded you? You have to spend money again so soon?"
However, William was not short of money at all. He was still clear about the necessary investment. However, in the blink of an eye, he asked Sunday, "How's the base in Yellowstone Park? Isn't there a large server group there? Why don't you use the server there? "
"Sir, the order you gave me before was to seal off that base."
"Then I'll give you the authorization to use it now. Also, has the base been cleaned up? I'll go take a look if I have nothing to do that day."
"It's been completely cleaned up. You can go take a look at it anytime."
The next morning, when he was eating breakfast, he saw a comprehensive report of the crisis yesterday on the news. Not only was Speaker Eli arrested,
The spearhead was also vaguely pointed at the military conglomerate. As soon as the stock market opened in the morning, the stock prices of all the military conglomerates began to fall slowly.
But surprisingly, these companies did not take any protective measures. Many people who already knew the inside story knew that this was just the beginning of the chaos.
Once the American judicial system began to act, who knew how many military enterprises would not be able to withstand it, and how many former big shots would be thrown into jail.
However, this had nothing to do with William, and he didn't care.
In the next few days, Catherine led more than 20 subordinates to deal with the live ammunition test, while William was only responsible for making phone calls and announcing some matters related to the test to the media.
It was unknown if some people wanted to use the topic of William to divert attention, but in the past few days, all the media had begun to focus on him.
Then, most of the American media's attention was on him. William also changed his previous attitude towards the media and cooperated with them to do an exclusive interview.
Once the interview was released, most of the Americans knew about the live-ammunition test for the bulletproof vest. Taking advantage of this popularity, the preparations went surprisingly smoothly.
On the day of the test, not only were hundreds of media present, but more than a dozen people in military uniforms with stars on their chests were also present, just as Benjamin Arthur had said.
"Mr. Devonshire, you can call me General Hawk. It's a pleasure to meet you, and thank you for everything you've done for us."
The Americans had one star for brigadier general and two stars for major general. Looking at the three stars on Hawk's shoulder, it was obvious that this guy was a lieutenant general.
"Thank you, you're too polite. This way, please." He led Hawk and more than a dozen people to the indoor shooting range.
A row of various long and short guns was placed on a long table, and nine sets of prepared suits were put on nine human-shaped targets ten meters away.
"You must be experienced with guns. Are your people the first to come?" William joked with Hawk. "So that some rich gentleman won't hurt himself."
"Haha, no, Mr. Devonshire, you're wrong. There aren't many people here who aren't gun enthusiasts. Otherwise, they would've just read about it on the news. There's no need for them to come here personally."
That was true. "Okay, there are nine targets, and each target can only fire 10 shots. If any of the bulletproof suits are pierced, I'll immediately invite all of you to a nightclub for ten days." Zhao Yu said.
"Only ten shots?"
"God, how many more shots do you want to shoot? This is a bulletproof vest. Would you just stand there and let people shoot ten shots when you're wearing a bulletproof vest?"
"Alright, alright." William clapped his hands to stop the two guys. "Let's shoot ten shots first. If there's no problem, we'll test how many shots can penetrate these bulletproof suits, okay?"
"That's a good idea." Many people immediately agreed. "It's great to be able to block ten shots, but if it can block a hundred shots without being penetrated, then all the high-end bulletproof companies will have to close down in the future."
"Thank you, I'll take your blessings." William smiled and nodded at Catherine, indicating that they could begin.
Half a day of testing passed unknowingly. The bulletproof vest that lasted the longest was specially designed to test pistols. It took a total of 129 shots to penetrate it.
As for the long gun test, it also took 43 shots to penetrate it. There was even a bulletproof vest that was specially designed to shoot with a Barrett that blocked an ordinary sniper bullet.
Although the bulletproof vest wasn't penetrated, it was severely deformed. There was also a circular dent on the human-shaped target. If it hit a person, although it wouldn't be fatal, it would definitely break a few ribs.
However, if a ceramic bulletproof vest was worn over the bulletproof suit, then it might really be able to defend against the Barrett.
After the testing, the bulletproof suit's defensive power was proven to be ridiculously strong. The only problem was that the asking price of five million pounds was really too expensive.
Especially Hawk, who wanted to give one to each of his most elite men, was very moved and pained.
"Sorry, General Hawk, you'll have to ask Catherine about the sales." William shrugged at Hawk, who wanted to bargain with him. "Now that Ms. Catherine is the CEO of the company, she's in charge of the operations. Even I can't directly give you a discount."
William was very relieved to have Catherine, the former British Minister of State for Security, to talk about orders with the American military. This was because when they first met, some generals with stars on their chests saluted Catherine when they saw her.
This also made William secretly happy that he could find Catherine to be the CEO of the defense equipment company.
After apologizing to Hawk and the others, William turned to the rich people.
