In Chen Nian's plan, the optimal solution to the current situation is indeed to solve the problem once and for all, which he never doubted.

But whether it can be done depends on the implementation of specific tactics.

This is not something that can get results immediately, so he is not overly anxious, but has returned to his normal work rhythm.

——

Of course, compared to before, after having a clear goal, his pressure also increased.

Fortunately, everything is still within the acceptable range.

After his emotions relaxed, Chen Nian finally remembered Wang Jiancheng and Qiao Mai who were still in Chengdu, and made an appointment with them for dinner.

At the dinner table, the three chatted about what had happened in the past few days.

During the period when he was dealing with the follow-up plan, the two of them were naturally not idle.

Wang Jiancheng was busy with his Bai Ze AI, while Qiao Mai found Zhang Wen and chatted with her about the research direction.

But what Chen Nian didn't expect was that Qiao Mai was actually drawn into the 096 floating raft vibration reduction project team.

Of course, she herself and even Zhang Wen didn't know that the project they accepted was related to 096, because they were only responsible for a very small part of the mechanical vibration isolator of the float valve, that is, the hydraulic connector part.

Therefore, in a short period of time, Qiao Mai may not have the opportunity to directly contact the core organization of Xinghuo.

But it is clear that she has taken the first step.

".So you will mainly follow Zhang Wen in the future? What about your project at Xigong University?"

After listening to Qiao Mai's words, Chen Nian asked.

"No, I'm mainly doing the original mechatronic-hydraulic integration project, which should be considered a small side job for Mr. Zhang."

"To be honest, this kind of project is just for brushing up your qualifications, and the difficulty itself is not high——but it's quite interesting."

"Looking at the requirements of the project, I guess this thing should be a technical reserve for a new generation of submarines and ships, but I don't know when it will be used."

Chen Nian smiled, but didn't answer.

When can I use it?

If Qiao Mai knew that the answer was "within a year", I'm afraid he would not have such a relaxed attitude.

The three chatted casually for a while, and the topic quickly and naturally turned to the most popular South Island issue recently. Qiao Mai didn't have too many strong opinions on this, but Wang Jiancheng gritted his teeth when he mentioned the South Island.

"I agree with most people. This broken island will have to be taken down sooner or later. It's better to do it now."

"I have tolerated them for a long time. I checked the information on the Internet, and I can see their presence there everywhere."

"What the hell, senior, do you know, didn't I publish a paper on the intelligent control system of the mechanical exoskeleton before? Someone from South Island specifically pulled this paper out for discussion, accusing me of plagiarizing the results."

"There's something wrong! How long has our project existed, and he actually insisted that I copied the contents of the forward-looking research report of General Dynamics."

"I still need to copy that kind of shit? GM has been tossing the exoskeleton for a long time, and it hasn't made a usable model yet."

"I still copy them? It's almost as good as they copied me."

"The most exasperating thing is, didn't we have a case of civilian exoskeletons entering the project construction before? Do you know what those people said?"

"They said that our exoskeleton was modified from an electric bicycle, and the reason was that the battery used was an electric vehicle battery. Is this not purely a disease?"

"Co-authoring GM's development of exoskeletons is the light of mankind, and it is leading the industrial revolution. If we develop exoskeletons, is he the deformation of electric vehicles?"

Chen Nian wanted to laugh, and said jokingly:

"There's no need to be angry with them. After all, it's awesome to be able to change a motorcycle into a Transformer."

"Senior, sometimes your brain circuits are really unpredictable."

Wang Jiancheng sighed for a long time, and then continued:

"But to be honest, I think the South Island problem needs to be solved."

"To put it bluntly, their tendency in the past two years is very wrong. TD is not only a rising trend, it should be said that it has gradually become the mainstream consciousness."

"If they are allowed to develop like this, I am afraid the situation in the future will become more difficult."

Chen Nian nodded slightly, and replied:

"Indeed... It is basically impossible to achieve the goal through purely peaceful means."

"The problem we are facing now is nothing more than when and how to do it."

"They all came from the same school. You should also know about equipment. At present, our military equipment is really not enough for the old Americans. Let alone a full-scale confrontation, even a local war is a bit difficult."

"Especially in the case of landing operations and denial operations, the problem will be more serious."

"What's the problem with these two tactics? For landing operations, we have 072 and 072II. It is said that there is also news about the 075 type. It can be launched in a year or two at most."

"Refused to fight, we have 001, 055, and the latest 094, plus a lot of land-based ballistic missiles and fourth-generation aircraft, it is no problem to fight two aircraft carrier battle groups, right?"

Chen Nian rolled his eyes, hating iron for being weak and said:

"Are you not pure ivory tower thinking? What's the use of comparing the combat effectiveness of individual equipment? In a real fight, if there is no obvious generation difference, quantity is still king."

"In a word, what do you do when someone else plays saturation strike with you?"

"No matter how strong the 055's air defense capability is, in the final analysis, there is only one. A dozen Ticonderoga and the Burke class stand together. Can you break the defense with a round of salvo? Not to mention their advantages in carrier-based aircraft gone."

"As long as we try our best to fill up the initial stage with battle losses, after our equipment is exhausted, the battle will soon be overwhelmingly against them"

What Chen Nian said was a bit exaggerated. In fact, 055 is not so easy to break the defense, and it is not so easy to fill China's production capacity.

The reason why he said that was because he wanted to cool down Wang Jiancheng's mood a little.

However, after listening to his words, Wang Jiancheng on the opposite side nodded thoughtfully.

"This is a problem. So we need a killer weapon, preferably one that can turn the tide of the battle!"

".Who doesn't know? But the problem is, there is no such weapon in this world."

"Even if there is, it can't be made in a short time."

"Well, it's true that physical weapons can't be made, but what about viruses? I mean, computer viruses."

Hearing Wang Jiancheng's words, Chen Nian couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Virus?

This is a common way of thinking, especially after the emergence of Panda Burning Incense in 2006, it can almost be said that when it comes to the Internet, viruses cannot be avoided.

but the problem is

It's not enforceable at all.

The military network of any country in the world is physically isolated. At that time, the old US relied on almost crushing technical advantages to launch an attack on the iran military network, but it ended in failure.

Coupled with the special composition of the military network, it is determined that it does not have the soil for the large-scale spread of viruses.

Not feasible.

Chen Nian wanted to refute, but Wang Jiancheng spoke first:

"I was thinking, we don't necessarily have to directly attack the military network, that would be too difficult and costly."

"If only for a few key nodes, such as airports, power hubs, and industrial facilities."

"As long as these departments are hit, the combat effectiveness of the military will definitely decline rapidly."

? ? ?

Chen Nian's mind suddenly flashed.

From Wang Jiancheng's words, he suddenly experienced a sense of familiarity.

Where did you hear this strategy?

He frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed it.

I got it.

Stuxnet.

This is the only special virus directly targeting nuclear facilities that the United States has achieved results in iran.

At the beginning, the virus destroyed more than 1,000 centrifuges in iran within two months. Until the final release, iran did not find any problems.

In a way, Stuxnet completely destroyed iran's nuclear program, making it one of the most successful computer viruses in history.

However, even in this classic case that was successful enough to be included in textbooks, the source of the virus transmission still used social engineering methods—it was brought into the facility by a USB drive.

And once in a state of war, there is no room for this kind of social work methods to be used at all.

So, if you want to do it, you have to start now.

A bold idea popped up in Chen Nian's heart. He looked at Wang Jiancheng and said:

"That's a good idea."

"Otherwise, let's try it out together?"

Meanwhile, South Island.

Gu Kuanmin is sitting in his office, conscientiously fulfilling his responsibilities as the party leader.

For an old man who is over eighty years old, the work at hand is indeed too heavy. Just reading endless party affairs reports makes him dizzy and short of breath.

But even so, he is absolutely unwilling to let others do it for him.

After all, this is the first time he has reached such a high position, and it is also a critical period for whether he can go further before he dies.

He is very clear about his position, and he is also very clear about what the benefactor behind him really wants him to do.

To put it bluntly, isn’t it just being a dog?

It has to be a dog that can bark and bite.

But he didn't mind that--his family was pretty experienced when it came to dogs.

He is not proud of this, but proud of his "political wisdom".

if not?

Betting correctly again and again, following the right people again and again, although the reputation is not good, but it has indeed left a huge family fortune for myself and future generations.

As long as I take the helm at the last moment of this generation, the family can be completely wiped out by the latest generation

At that time, no matter which direction you choose, you will be able to do so with ease.

Maybe, in some extreme cases, future generations can also perform a "wake up" drama, cast in the opposite direction, and gain a greater future.

Thinking of this, Gu Kuanmin had a satisfied smile on his face.

After reading the last document, he took off the reading glasses on his face, picked up the phone receiver, and made the call that he remembered even with his eyes closed.

And soon, a middle-aged man's voice came from the receiver.

The man emphasized the greeting with a standard American accent and white enthusiasm:

"Mr. Gu, good afternoon, how are you doing today?"

Gu Kuanmin replied in a gentle tone:

"After sitting for a long time, my waist is a little sore, but everything is fine."

"The medical staff you sent are very responsible, thank them for me."

"No problem, I will convey it personally."

The man immediately agreed, and then continued to ask:

"Mr. Gu, this should be your lunch break. Call me suddenly. Is there something important?"

"Yes, there are some situations that I need to communicate with you."

Hearing this, the man's tone became a little more serious, and there was a sound of flipping paper on the other end of the phone. After a while, he opened his mouth and said:

"Mr. Gu, tell me, I will record everything."

On the other side, Gu Kuanmin also opened the notes he had made, put on his glasses again, and began to report to the man one by one.

"What I want to say is that most of the plans we have made before have been launched, and some of them have reached a considerable degree of completion."

"The first is the public opinion offensive on the other side. Under our arrangement, the public opinion environment of the other side has changed significantly. At present, their people have formed a unified understanding of the so-called 'Wutong'."

"This part of the plan consumes a total of 41.67 million US dollars. I will send you the details."

"No problem, the funds will arrive in accordance with your requirements—of course, in the form of donations."

The man answered immediately.

"Okay, I believe in your ability to handle things."

Gu Kuanmin paused for a moment, took a breath, and then continued:

"On the other hand, the comprehensive decoupling plan has been gradually launched. It is expected that the first batch of industries will include semiconductors, fresh fruit, and electromechanical—mainly recording, printing machinery, and CNC machine tools."

"It is estimated that in this plan, we will suffer losses worth a total of $4 billion."

"This is not a small number, so I hope that I can get your order confirmation as soon as possible, so as to ensure the normal operation of the entire industry"

"Understood. I have sent a report to Congress. It is expected that in the next two weeks, the progress of order confirmation will be accelerated. You don't have to worry about this."

"That's good. In addition, I also have some new questions about the appointment and dismissal of personnel."

Gu Kuanmin continued to talk, and the two chatted for half an hour before finally sorting out the recent situation.

After confirming the last item in the note, Gu Kuanmin said with some emotion:

"At this point, the fate of both of us will be completely bound together."

"This is a big gamble. Maybe you can't understand our pressure, but I still hope to say one more thing."

"Don't abandon us, the South Island is your most loyal partner and the most solid shield."

"With us standing in front of you, no one will be able to shake your position."

Hearing Gu Kuanmin's words of loyalty, the man on the other end of the phone couldn't help but want to laugh.

But out of professionalism, he still replied in a serious tone:

"Don't worry, everything will go according to plan."

"You have an old saying that only hard work can win."

"I think, this is the time to fight."

"Even if it is the most extreme situation, as long as the South Island can block the first wave of attacks, as long as you can survive for two weeks, then the way forward for you will be completely opened."

Gu Kuanmin nodded slowly, thinking to himself:

two weeks?

It sounds like it's not that difficult.
