This humiliating defeat of the United States has become the biggest topic in the world in the past two days. Regarding this defeat, defense contractor John Shepard, who was lucky enough to survive the shutdown and beat the dog, had something to say about it.
The United States is so shameless when it fails like this. Look at how many leaders the CIA has changed in one term. Has it changed? MI6 also has something to say. The team I led was the Cambridge Five. What team did you lead from the CIA? If it loses again, it will lose to Vietnam. After North Korea loses, it will lose to Cuba. After Cuba loses, it will lose to Yala. If it loses again, it will lose. If you go down, the free world will be over!
The above paragraph is actually just Shepard's own imagination while lying in the special ward, because from the current point of view, Yara's failure has not caused any disturbance in the top management. It seems that the gentlemen above are used to overturning the situation.
Of course, this operation cannot be said to have no consequences, because the Russians seized a large amount of aid provided by the CIA as evidence, which made the United States extremely passive internationally. Therefore, everyone who is a direct participant must remain silent about this. In other words, even Pegasus will be deregistered and shut down. As for silence, this is not a movie. If you do black ops once and silence once, who will do the hard work for you?
In short, the attitude of the United States is to deny it until death. I won’t listen to anything you say. They are all false accusations!
However, the noisy noise of the people above has nothing to do with the people below. Just like Shepard, he is unlucky and unlucky, and lucky and lucky. Why he is unlucky because he was the only one injured in this operation, and he is lucky because of the incident. The sniper bullets only made two holes in his butt.
At this moment, Shepard was extremely grateful to the cheap mother in this life. If the mother had not fed him strong food since childhood, the bullet might not have penetrated through the flesh of the buttocks.
After the injury, Shepard was admitted directly to the best hospital in Miami for treatment. Even Smith was considering using his connections to transfer Shepard back to the San Diego Naval Hospital. However, given that his injuries were too minor, the plan was eventually cancelled. , after all, it’s just two more bullet holes on the butt, and it will heal after a few days.
Although he was lying on the hospital bed, Shepard was not idle. On the day Pegasus was canceled, a brand new Shadow Company appeared on the list of contractor companies, and this newly established company Although it doesn't have a single employee, it has a bunch of properties to its name, including an ocean-going cargo ship, several helicopters, and hundreds of employees.
"So, you still want to be a contractor?"
"After all, you have to challenge yourself sometimes, right?"
Because the wound was on his butt, Shepard could only lie down and had to take off his pants. Fortunately, most of the doctors taking care of him were male doctors. He was not shy at all. Men can't expose their shortcomings, but they definitely don't have their strong points. questionable!
"Then if you want me to do anything else, just tell me. I'll be back in California in a few days!"
Smith sat beside the hospital bed, puffing away at his cigar while talking about the situation.
"I want to build a gun factory first!"
"?"
Smith frowned, put out his cigar, and then said.
"It's not difficult to have a gun factory, but why are you doing this, making new guns?"
"No, why are we making new guns? We are making gun accessories!"
"What kind of accessories can a rifle have, such as a scope, a bayonet, or at worst, an m203 grenade launcher? What use can this have?"
"It's useless now, but it doesn't mean it won't be useful in the future. It's just a trap. Do you believe that in the future, someone will actually load a 500-yuan gun with a bunch of things that are not actually used, but just for the sake of coolness? It's like Like a Christmas tree!”
"But you also said that was in the future! John, I know you have many, many ideas, but running a company is not a child's play house. The first thing you have to consider is how to maintain operations, rather than developing something all at once. The new plan will bring down the company!"
"I understand, so what do you think I should do now?"
“First of all, it’s a business issue!”
Smith rubbed his cigar again and sighed.
"Do you know what is the most profitable thing about the company right now?"
“Sea freight in Vietnam!”
"Yes, everything is paid for by the Navy. Even if we failed in this trip to Yala, we still didn't lose a penny. Why do you think this is?"
"Because Uncle Sam pays for everything!"
"So, do you understand?"
"Understood!"
Then the two of them began to laugh. Smith's meaning was very simple, that is, you should choose those who are taking advantage of others to pay for your business. You must not touch those who are responsible for their own profits and losses, or touch less. This is the way to make a fortune.
As for whose head the final cost is transferred to, well, everyone understands.
"But I still need a gun workshop and some technical staff!"
"Don't worry, I'll pay for it myself!"
Shepard saw that Smith wanted to lecture again, so he quickly explained.
"Just do it!"
Smith was helpless, but after visiting Shepard, he still made a few calls. His original intention was to find a small company on the verge of bankruptcy for acquisition. But somehow, this matter fell into Morgan's ears, and the old guy immediately He laughed at his old friend's pedantic cuteness.
"Why are you looking for a company to acquire? Can't you invest in a small company?"
These words made Smith suddenly enlightened. Then he found a company that was not even a firearms company. The operator was named Red Knight. His company's main focus was commercial and civilian shooting equipment, but the company's profits were pretty good. , except for the current smaller size, there is nothing wrong with it.
Company manager Red Knight doesn't feel bad about the sudden investment. For him, the company's business has become saturated in Miami. Cooperating with investors with military backgrounds to open up The new military market is very beneficial to everyone, so the joint venture hit it off immediately, and we took it willingly.
Shepard didn't know about it yet, and when Smith told him a week later, everyone else was dumbfounded.
"Wait a minute, what was the name of the operator you just mentioned?"
"Red Knight, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just think the name is very good!"
Shepard almost peed with laughter, because without Smith's intervention, in 1978, Red Knight would have chosen to establish a firearms company for military orders, and the company's subsequent business was actually just like that, for example Provide one million sets of firearm accessories to the U.S. military, or build some silencers for HK.
“Now it seems that becoming bigger and stronger is no longer a dream!”
