Capítulo 2026: Chapter 2003: Activating the Firewall
The .338 Lapua Magnum round can reach a range of 1,500 ters while retaining enough power, but regardless of the gun used, at this distance, the bullet’s spread becos too large for precision shooting. Hitting the target really depends largely on luck.
So, if the shooting distance reaches 1,000 yards, which is over 900 ters, and still maintains excellent accuracy, then this gun and bullet are quite remarkable.
Just like Gao Yang using the Blade of Satan, when using ordinary 7.62 NATO rounds, he basically wouldn’t attempt to shoot targets beyond 800 ters. But when using high-speed, long-distance rounds that are expensive and scarce, he would often shoot targets over 1,000 ters away, and fairly confidently attempt ultra-long-range shooting at targets over 1,100 ters, sotis even hitting targets at 1,200 ters. For the 7.62 caliber, this is truly an ultra-long-range.
The .338 Lapua Magnum round, with a tric caliber of 86×70 mm, is specifically designed for sniping, with a larger caliber and increased length, making this not-so-common but not-rare bullet possess greater power and longer range at the sa distance compared to the 7.62 mm caliber.
Therefore, the .338 Lapua Magnum round still retains very high kinetic energy and a relatively smaller spread beyond 1,000 ters.
Alexander sees potential in this bullet, so he started a company to design a semi-automatic sniper rifle specifically for the .338 Lapua Magnum round.
Actually, Alexander has been quite successful. At a 1,000-ter distance, being able to control the spread within the size of a human torso is an excellent sniper rifle, and it’s a semi-automatic rifle.
However, if soone could reduce the spread from the size of a car wheel to a basketball size, that would be a revolutionary improvent.
When Gao Yang, even after 1,000 yards, can repeatedly hit the target with each shot, that’s already very, very good.
After Gao Yang finished shooting the last set of bullets, he stood up confidently and said to Alexander, “How’s that!”
Alexander left the telescope, clapped his hands, and said loudly to Jack with a genuinely impressed look, “Spectacular! Perfect! Super perfect!”
Jack raised his bottle with a smile and said, “To , this is normal, no need to be too surprised.”
Alexander calmly said, “So, can we talk about our future cooperation? I need at least five guns that must reach this standard, and I heard you have a mature modification plan?”
Jack shrugged and said, “Yes, there’s a plan. I don’t know your design philosophy, so I can’t determine whether you’re aiming for a battlefield-suitable rifle with higher tolerance or a rifle chasing ultimate precision. This rifle is already close to perfection as a combat rifle, just, in…”
Gao Yang cleared his throat heavily, then smiled and said to Alexander, “Buddy, don’t rush into probing trade secrets. First, let ask you, are you satisfied?”
Alexander said without hesitation, “Satisfied! You don’t need to refund the money, the deal is officially completed. I trust the next five guns to be delivered will not have issues.”
Gao Yang exhaled and smiled, “Very good, so, how do you plan on thanking ?”
Alexander was montarily stunned, then looked at Gao Yang and said, “The money has been transferred to the account you provided, don’t tell you want additional benefits.”
Gao Yang imdiately said, “Fifteen Million Dollars, I didn’t deduct a single cent, all given to him.”
Alexander imdiately frowned and said, “By the rules, your commission should be included within that Fifteen Million Dollars, buddy. I think this price is already astronomical, do you expect to bear your commission too?”
Jack muttered to himself, “Actually, I could cover this money, I understand.”
Gao Yang laughed, “No need, no need, I don’t want money, I want benefits. Brother, I am quite interested in your guns, and a brother of mine is also interested in your guns, so just give one more as a favor.”
Alexander’s face slightly changed, responding irately, “So, that’s what you ant. Fine, I spent big money, I’ll give you one as a token, no, I’ll give you two guns to thank you!”
Gao Yang cheekily shook his head, “I don’t want your factory guns, I want his modified guns. Co on, don’t be such a tightwad, I didn’t ask you to divide one from the five guns for . How about you provide the materials and let him build an extra one.”
Jack would have Alexander provide parts for at least twenty guns, then select the parts with the smallest tolerances and handcraft them together. For Gao Yang to get one of Jack’s modified guns, Alexander needs to provide original parts.
Alexander had a pained look and said, “You…”
Gao Yang waved his hand, “Without , would you have had this opportunity? So don’t be so stingy; the leftover parts are not being taken away.”
Alexander’s guns are premium items, with the market price for factory guns at least over forty thousand US Dollars. With Gao Yang’s maneuver, he’s going to have to incur the price of one more gun.
“Alright, alright, you can have it, you can have it.”
“You just said it yourself, two guns.”
After a few muscle twitches on Alexander’s face, he pointed to the gun on the table, “In any case, I must take this gun with first.”
Gao Yang imdiately said, “No way, no way, this gun is already mine, Jack gave it to as a reward for introducing business.”
Alexander said with a sore expression, “I need this gun to take back and show my people, buddy, at worst, I can let Jack first give you the first two modified guns! Ram! I’ve made a huge concession, you have to agree, buddy, do a favor!”
Gao Yang didn’t want money, but he still wanted to tease Alexander. Just then, his phone rang. So he took out the phone, and while Alexander impatiently waited for his response, he walked to the side to answer the call.
Gao Yang answered the call and heard the person on the other end whisper, “Cleaner, please imdiately head to New York. Soone will et with you, urgent situation, please proceed at the fastest speed!”
Gao Yang’s heart tightened, and he whispered, “What happened!”
“The firewall has been activated, more details need to be discussed in person. After arriving in New York, have a face-to-face talk with your contact, please hurry, call ended.”
Gao Yang imdiately hung up the call, turned to Alexander, and said, “You can take the gun with you; don’t forget the terms you agreed to. You guys can continue your discussion; I have sothing I need to leave for first.”
Gao Yang left briskly, and after walking so distance, Li Jinfang softly asked, “What’s going on?”
Gao Yang exhaled and whispered, “The Cleaner’s firewall has been activated, soone is investigating us, details are unclear yet, but I suspect the only one that would make the Cleaner activate the firewall could be the CIA!”
