Chapter 361 Intelligence Contest

And just when Chen Nian deduced the conclusion that "the United States is bound to launch an intelligence operation on metal hydrogen", countless intelligence secret piles on the Chinese mainland have indeed taken action.

In Chang'an, in an office that has obviously been renovated and refurbished.

Liu Hai's face is full of high spirits. In the past year or so, he has made a lot of money by relying on the trend of "reselling people".

Everyone is staring at domestic talents, trying their best to send people from China to the United States to earn the immigration subsidies for talent introduction.

Only Liu Hai did the opposite. Through the relationship he built up, he managed to recruit more than 30 unhappy researchers from the United States in one year.

Indeed, the level of these people is not too high.

It could even be said that some of them were eliminated by Lao Mei.

But so what? In this day and age, a lot of foreign garbage is imported, and no one wants foreigners?

"If you don't have the skills, just squeeze out their experience. If you don't have any experience, it's not a loss if you let him be a talent reserve. Anyway, my fee is low, and what you want to talk about is just your own quotation."

This is Liu Hai's usual sales pitch, and it turns out that this set of speech is not only nice, but also practical.

For one head, he received 10,000 yuan from the unit and 10,000 yuan from the talent.

And what he did was to undertake the work of an intermediary, collect information, release it to those who need it, and conduct bilateral communication at the same time.

In one year, he earned a small two million - but he felt that it was not enough.

He feels that there are still too many concerns about talents in the United States. If he can increase investment, increase publicity, and help those talents remove some obstacles to leaving the country and naturalization, he will definitely earn more.

Therefore, he has already started preparations for going abroad, and plans to go there to learn about the market in person.

But before he officially left, a special client suddenly came to his office.

A white man --- a white man who speaks fluent Chinese.

"Mr. Liu Hai, long time no see."

The visitor was full of smiles, and after Liu Hai carefully searched the memory in his mind, he also remembered the name of this person.

Bloomberg, like him, was a colleague who worked on the talent project of Senas Corporation.

Since leaving Senas, Liu Hai has never met him again. He once thought that this person should have returned to China, but he did not expect that he is still in Huaxia.

"Bloomberg. Your Chinese is becoming more and more fluent."

Hearing his words, Bloomberg laughed and replied:

"I practice Chinese every day, and it's normal to make progress—but what surprised me even more was Ni."

"I remember it was about last year. I also noticed that you were doing headhunting for some small companies. To be honest, you looked very down."

"I didn't expect that in just one year, you have already achieved this level."

Liu Hai shook his head lightly, and said with a humble attitude unique to Chinese people:

"It's just luck."

After a short pause, he continued to ask:

"I'm looking for me today. Do you have any projects? Although I no longer do traditional headhunting work, I may be able to help you with a little favor because of my past affection."

In fact, the reason why Liu Hai remembers Bloomberg is that apart from his English name, which is almost indistinguishable from Chinese, there is also a very important point that this Bloomberg is really comprehensive in terms of human relationships and sophistication.

Although I don't have much contact with him, in Liu Hai's impression, almost every time I deal with him, I feel like a spring breeze.

And several times, when he did encounter difficulties, he helped himself more or less.

Liu Hai thinks he is not a morally perfect person, but he will still pay back the favors that should be paid back.

On the opposite side, Bloomberg showed a satisfied smile on his face. He put down his raised Erlang legs, leaned forward slightly, looked into Liu Hai's eyes sincerely and said:

"Actually, I do need your help with one thing."

"Also, I'm afraid only you can do this."

"Only I can do it? What do you mean?"

Liu Hai subconsciously sat up straight, with obvious doubts in his tone.

This kid wants to poach someone too? ——

It shouldn't be.

Colleagues are like enemies, even if they want to poach someone, theoretically he will not find him.

He wanted to continue asking, but the latter answered bluntly:

"I would like to ask you to go to Xicai Research Institute, help us find a researcher, and help us connect with him."

"He is doing research on advanced energy materials, and my employer wants to poach him."

"I know that you have contact with Xicai Research Institute. Some time ago, didn't you introduce an American named Desney to join their research project? Your interpersonal relationship should be stable, right?"

"This task is very simple. Find him, ask him out, and meet me."

"Regardless of whether you can succeed or not, your consulting fee will be paid at 1% of the contract amount."

Hearing this, Liu Hai suddenly became energetic.

He immediately asked:

"How big is the contract?"

"The current offer is more than six million, and there may be room in the future."

"Six million? Just him?"

Liu Hai was shocked. For a moment, he suddenly felt that the agency fee of 10,000 knives was not too bad.

"...Six million is not too much. As you know, my employer quotes the price in US dollars. In fact, if you take out the impact of the tax rate and level the overall price of the talents you have introduced, it will be beneficial to the employer. That being said, the cost is not much different.”

Liu Hai nodded slightly, thinking about it carefully, this point is true.

Take that Desney as an example. Although the annual salary package offered by Xicai Research Institute is much lower than when he was in the United States, it is also based on the top allocation of domestic researchers of the same level and level.

There is no way, what you are drawing is the accumulated experience of foreign monks. Even if you consider the major premise of China's scientific research development prospects, a small premium is still necessary.

Not to mention these research institutions, going back more than ten years, when domestic companies recruit foreign technicians, the premium is also high, and the reason is actually the same.

Therefore, the overall quotation given by Bloomberg is still reasonable-at least, he does not see any shadow of conspiracy in it.

It seems that this is a normal business cooperation?

After thinking for a while, Liu Hai said:

"Let me take a look at the contract. 60,000 yuan is really a lot for someone. If there is no problem, I will run around for you."

"no problem!"

Bloomberg took out a stack of materials from his briefcase without delay, and Liu Hai glanced over. The contract elements were basically complete, and the terms were professional and rigorous, basically impeccable.

So, without hesitation, he directly signed his name on the paper.

"Happy cooperation!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, holding hands tightly together.

"The penetration speed of the other party is faster than we expected. In just one day, various research institutes have already reported various suspected information leakage incidents."

"Poaching people, digging supply chains, putting Trojan horses, secretly filming, stealing... really use everything."

"I'm a little scared at the cost."

"It seems that they are really in a hurry. Even if they pull out all the nails in their hands, they must determine the threat level in the shortest possible time."

"But fortunately, our early publicity is still in place, so far there has been no direct leak."

"The data they get is basically based on the raw material supply chain, power consumption, hydraulic machine operation status, and spare parts replacement."

"The only regret is that they have figured out the metal hydrogen."

"The Yankees are not easy to deceive. We released so many smoke bombs, trying to mislead them to the total nitrogen anion salt, but they didn't fall for it at all."

"It's good that they are so stupid, we don't have to bother so much, just beat the kids up."

Hearing Chen Nian's words, Li Xiang couldn't help laughing.

Then he continued:

"We also found an acquaintance on the list. Guess who it is?"

"Acquaintance? How familiar?"

". If you want to say how familiar you are, it's really hard to answer."

"We've all dealt with him, though—Liu Hai, do you remember?"

"The one who was a headhunter for Senas? I remember the Senas spy case at that time, he seemed to be implicated, right?"

"Why, is he back in his old profession?"

Chen Nian frowned. He actually didn't know how to evaluate this person.

Call him reactionary, that's not enough, he is at best a profit-seeking businessman, just a weed that sways in the wind.

But if you want to say that you don't have a negative opinion of him, it's even more impossible.

In Chen Nian's case, he still maintains the image of xenophilia at the beginning, which makes people extremely displeased.

Looking at Chen Nian's expression, Li Xiang shook his head and replied:

"No, he suffered a little loss before, so it should be regarded as um, let's get rid of the evil and return to the right."

"In the past two years, he has been engaged in the business of talent introduction. He has stepped on the trend and made a lot of money. The overall style is also more positive."

"However, he recently did a business and inadvertently got involved with a US intelligence officer."

"The man's name is Bloomberg, and he's also someone related to Senas. He's been lurking on our side for a long time, and he hasn't done anything before. He surfaced this time just to dig information from a core member of the lab."

"He was in a hurry and dealt with it rather frizzily, so he didn't take it down."

"But our comrades are smart and not exposed, so the thread hasn't broken."

"Understood that you want to use Liu Hai to spread false information?"

Chen Nian said thoughtfully.

He subconsciously went through the plan in his mind and found that there was a door.

After all, Liu Hai's external trust is relatively high, and he is ignorant of the entire intelligence activity. Using him as Huang Gai has a natural advantage.

Hearing Chen Nian's question, Li Xiang nodded.

"I have this idea at the moment, but it's hard to say how far it can be implemented."

"I'm telling you this because we need to evaluate the technical feasibility."

"We must provide part of the technical data to enhance the credibility of the intelligence. I would like you to lead the screening of this part of the data."

Li Xiang's expression was very serious. At this moment, what he showed was the quality that a professional intelligence officer should have.

Chen Nian thought for a moment, then answered:

"The pressure data can be given. Without the support of the process, it is impossible for them to achieve the same effect under the pressure we are currently using."

"In addition, the data on production can basically be released-this is what they want most, but in fact, it is also the least necessary thing to keep secret."

"The industrial chain we designed is too long. No matter from any aspect, as long as end-to-end tracking can be realized, it is not difficult to guess our current output."

"There's no point in covering it up. It's better to let it out and verify the accuracy of the intelligence source."

"But in this case, our deterrence—I understand, embedding stock data?"

In the middle of Li Xiang's words, he suddenly realized that, in fact, this was also one of the previous work directions of the intelligence department.

It's just that because the operation is relatively complicated, it is not considered as the first priority.

"In this way, the complexity of the plan will increase. But leave it to us, just draw out the technical data."

Hearing his words, Chen Nian nodded.

He himself didn't intend to get involved too deeply. He found Li Xiang today, in fact, for another matter.

The development of Stuxnet, that is, the hook virus.

"How is your infiltration in the South Island going?"

"Basically completed, electricity, gas, fuel oil, delivery, and several departments have completed deployment."

"If necessary, it is actually possible to attack now."

"What about the airport? I mean, several major international airports."

Li Xiang immediately understood what Chen Nian was referring to, and his brows slowly frowned when he thought about the aircraft carrier on the west side of the South Island that had been reported in recent days.

"Taoyuan can do it, Kaohsiung can do it, but they may not lose these two."

"There are too many alternate landing sites, and they may even use a military airport for alternate landing."

"Absolutely impossible."

Chen Nian shook his head firmly.

He understands the pissing nature of the United States too well. What they want to do is disgusting things, not things that really put China in trouble.

Therefore, they will definitely choose civil aviation, and they will definitely choose civil airports.

Seeing Chen Nian's expression, Li Xiang also knew it in his heart.

"Understood, it can basically be said that it can be done."

"At worst, the entire island will be blacked out on a large scale. We can maintain it for at least 4 hours. Is it enough?"

"4 hours?"

Chen Nian looked at Li Xiang in surprise, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"That must be enough"

"This matter, I hope it is best resolved in this way."

"But if you can't solve it, then you have to give them some strength."

Li Xiang sighed slightly, he could feel Chen Nian's helplessness.

Stuxnet was originally an important pawn in their follow-up actions, but now, they have to start early.

But from the other side, maybe this is the best arrangement?
