Chapter 74 Lockheed
Los Angeles, Monchi Manor, in the study.

"Boss, I recently received news that the Detroit Aircraft Company is going to be auctioned off due to bankruptcy. I think we can buy it. This company still has a lot of good technology, and I don't expect the price to be too high."

After two years of development, the Public Opinion Research Office has a small staff size, but in the key American region, basically every major city has one or two intelligence personnel, and the current focus of their work is on various scientific and technological fields.

Zhang Feng also funded a number of scientists and even paid to bribe their assistants. In addition to acquiring a large amount of cutting-edge technology in the early stages, he was also preparing for the Manhattan Project.

"Oh, what company is it and what technologies do we need?" Zhang Feng asked casually.

"Detroit Aircraft Company, their engine technology and aircraft manufacturing technology, these are what you asked us to focus on." Guan Mao answered as he took out a document from his briefcase and placed it in front of Zhang Feng.

When Zhang Feng heard it was the Detroit Aircraft Company, he didn't have any impression of it. It shouldn't be a famous company in later generations, so he didn't care much about it. However, he still picked up the document and started to look through it.

Gradually his expression became serious, and then he smiled.

Zhang Feng was not familiar with the Detroit Aircraft Corporation, but he had heard of Lockheed Martin.

In 1912, the Lockheed brothers raised $1200 to found the Elko Seaplane Company, and in June 1913, their "G" model aircraft made its maiden flight, capable of carrying one pilot and two passengers.

In 1916, they changed the name of the company to Lockheed Aircraft Company.

In 1920, Lockheed Corporation went bankrupt due to unsustainable business, but at this time the younger brother invented a revolutionary four-wheel hydraulic braking system, which later became the global standard for automobiles, while the older brother switched to real estate business.

In 1926, they re-established Lockheed Aircraft Company in Hollywood and changed the spelling of the company name from "Loughhead" to "Lockheed."

In 1929, the aviation industry was struggling during the Great Depression, and the major shareholder sold the company to the Detroit Aircraft Company. My brother switched careers again and engaged in real estate business.

In 1932, the Detroit Aircraft Company went bankrupt, and the aviation enthusiasts, the Gross brothers, spent only $4.2 to acquire Lockheed and retained the company name. After they took over Lockheed, they not only brought it back to life, but also kept it as a global leader for decades.

In the same year, 1912, Glenn Martin founded an aircraft company. In 1943, under the promotion of the Roosevelt administration, the production capacity of various military industrial enterprises was rapidly released, and Martin Aircraft Company was no exception.

In 1961, Martin and Marietta merged.
In 1995, Lockheed and Martin Marietta completed their merger, and Lockheed Martin became the world's largest weapons manufacturer.

"Well, that's right. We must take over Lockheed at all costs. In this way, I will set up a separate company to be responsible for the acquisition. The Public Opinion Survey Office will do intelligence work and cooperate with this acquisition."

After reading it, Zhang Feng immediately gave the order.

"Yes, boss." Hearing Zhang Feng's affirmation, Guan Mao's expression, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, also showed a hint of color.

Zhang Feng took over this company not because he wanted to develop himself into a giant in the future, because that was impossible. He just wanted the company's technology.

After taking over the company, he will sell all the technology to Meihua Company. He will not be stopped now. After all, no one cares about such a small company.

As for the company itself, he will continue to operate it and then find a suitable opportunity to bring in people. He doesn't care about the company's shares, they are just right for doing favors and building personal connections.

The address of Lockheed Aircraft Corporation is in Santa Barbara, California. Zhang Feng feels that it would be better to return it to its future owner, the California Consortium, if there is a chance. It would be best if he could help the California Consortium retain control, rather than it being gradually controlled by the Eastern Consortium as it was in later generations.

Zhang Feng continued to look down and found that there was also a Detroit Aircraft Export Company, which was established in December 1928 to handle export sales to southern and central China as well as Japan, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. The Detroit Aircraft Company owned all the capital stock.

In 1931, Japan created the "September th Incident", which marked the beginning of World War II, and the impact of the war quickly spread across the globe.

War inevitably requires a large number of military equipment, and weapons with high technological content are the key to victory. The Gross brothers saw this business opportunity and resolutely invested heavily to develop and produce several fighter jets, which were very popular.

For example, the P-38 fighter (Lightning in English, translated into Chinese as "Lightning") is a high-speed interceptor with twin engines and a twin-tail fuselage structure, capable of ground attack, bomber escort, and air superiority.

In the 1930s, Lockheed invested $139 to develop the L-400 Electra twin-engine sports aircraft, selling 10 in the first year of production.

Famous aviator Amelia Earhart flew her last flight in this aircraft.

The aircraft was also the prototype of the Hudson bomber used by the Royal Air Force and the United States Army during World War II.

Zhang Feng felt that this company should also be acquired. After all, Lockheed's products still needed to be sold. It was relatively difficult to obtain orders in the United States and Europe. It would be better to use the United States's reputation to open up the market in these regions first.

After becoming famous, they used Roosevelt's power to sell them to the American and European military. You have to know that during World War II, these big guys were still in short supply. As long as the quality was good, there would be people buying them.

"Little John, register a company in Garbo's name to acquire Lockheed Corporation and Detroit Aircraft Export Corporation. Try to acquire these two companies, and as for the other companies, you can leave it to the rest." Zhang Feng instructed Little John.

"Yes, sir, I know what to do," Little John replied.

Detroit Aircraft Corporation owns many companies, and this bankruptcy was carried out in the form of an auction, in which the company was dismantled and auctioned off, so the Ross brothers were able to acquire Lockheed for only $4.2.

Zhang Feng certainly has the ability to acquire the Detroit Aircraft Company in full, but he does not want to attract too much attention and only plans to acquire two of the companies. Moreover, it is better to do the business involving arms under the name of Getri Garbo.

Rifles, semi-automatic rifles, assault rifles, machine guns, motorcycles, cars, armored vehicles, tanks, fighter planes, bombers, attack planes, destroyers, cruisers, aircraft carriers.

Zhang Feng has invested a lot in weapons, but Raytheon still has a long way to go in its development.

In the evening, Zhang Feng informed Getri Garbo that she had acquired the company in her name, and she had paid a considerable price for it.

Today, Getafe was wearing a pink, princess-like bubble dress. Her hair was not tied up, but simply tied into a bow with a red ribbon. Her bangs were casually scattered on her forehead. She had light makeup on her face, but her lips were painted with very red lipstick. The neckline of the dress was slightly low, tied with a bow, and two ribbons hung, revealing her delicate collarbone in front of her chest. The fluffy bubble sleeves only reached above her forearms.

The skirt is made of spliced ​​lace. When it swings, you can see another layer of skirt inside. The outer skirt covers the knees, and the inner skirt is above the knees. On the calves under the skirt are black stockings! On the feet are a pair of high heels with exposed toes in the same color as the dress.

Zhang Feng carried Gertari Garbo into the bathroom.

"Wow... Wow..."

Warm hot water poured down from Getri Garbo's head, and the water droplets slid over her fair and smooth body. Her slender waist made her breasts look even more amazing than their original bust size!

The cheeks scalded by the hot water are elegant and graceful, with a light and ethereal air, delicate skin, beautiful eyes, smiling rosy cheeks, and a faint orchid-like breath, which is indescribably gentle and lovely. Her skin is whiter than snow, and her eyes are like a pool of clear water. When she looks around, she has a kind of elegant and noble temperament.

It took more than an hour for the two to finish their shower.

Walking out of the bathroom, Getafe pulled the tie around her waist and walked towards the clothes rack against the wall. Her bathrobe slipped off in an instant, revealing her perfect and seductive body. Her plump big white rabbits were still firm even after giving birth. Her slender waist, long legs without a trace of fat, and plump white arms were so beautiful and sexy that she exuded an irresistible temptation.

Then she changed into a set of golden suspender pajamas. The straps were very thin and the neckline was very low, revealing most of her plump breasts, revealing a deep cleavage. The hem of the pajamas only reached her thighs, showing a pair of straight and round long legs.

Zhang Feng was fascinated by this scene, and then he turned into a wolf and pounced on it.
