Chapter 1166 Each Purpose
The efficiency of the U.S. military is not low at all. When Wember and others got the screw, another screw had already arrived in the hands of Ian Wright. At the same time, the visitor also introduced the ins and outs of the matter in detail, which proved that his guess was completely correct.
Ian Wright is relatively calm, but Bao Zixuan's status is unusual, so it's really hard to go to him directly. Moreover, the purpose of coming here this time is to obtain the technical information of the flying saucer. If something unpleasant happens, it will not end well for everyone in the end. You must know that this guy has a very good relationship with the Soviet Union. If he completely leads to the Soviet Union, it will be an extremely huge loss for the United States.
In addition, he did not get an order from the White House, so he had no choice but to take his wife for a stroll in Hong Kong. I have been busy with work for so many years, and I really haven’t spent as much time with my wife as I do today. He was not idle in his free time, always sorting out the technical information that Bao Zixuan might obtain.
At that time, many top German scientists were brought to the United States. Over the past forty years, the U.S. government, military, intelligence agencies, and technology companies conducted detailed investigations on them. The weapons and equipment that may be researched are basically listed. Some are seriously outdated, such as the world's first ballistic missile V-2; some have no meaning; the Gustav cannon falls into this category, otherwise it would not have been directly dismantled back then.
Some technologies are still unexplained, and flying saucers are a good example. Whether the Heiyun Group can develop it depends on whether the technical information obtained is more detailed or the technology itself is strong enough; these need to be known, otherwise there will be no results.
In order to cooperate with Ian Wright's work, well-known technical experts from the US military also came to Xiangjiang; with professionals present, it is not easy to suffer. Before setting off, I just wanted to get the technical information on the flying saucer. Now that the situation has changed, the appetite of the White House and the military has become larger; the task has become more difficult, and it will inevitably require the cooperation of professionals.
Until the White House had clear instructions to obtain as much technical information as possible from Heiyun at all costs. And authorized him to supervise this time on behalf of the President of the United States. His identity immediately changed. At this time, he was not just a military representative, but represented the entire United States in negotiating with his opponent. He must be taken seriously.
Bao Zixuan received a request from Ian Wright to visit him, although he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling. But after all, they are old acquaintances, and the other party comes to Xiangjiang; they need to meet each other both emotionally and rationally, and in public and private matters. It is still necessary to show a little kindness to the landlord.
As for Ian Wright's wife, her identity is slightly embarrassing at this time.
Previously, she had planned to contact Bao Zixuan in a private capacity first, so it was reasonable for Madam to go to her home to visit the children. Now that he is here as the presidential envoy, it would be inappropriate for his wife to visit him in the past. But since we have come, it is not good to go there for a while.
After a fierce ideological struggle, Ian Wright decided to visit the Bao family in a private capacity first; as for what to do next, he still had to think carefully.
It was certainly impossible to ask Bao Zixuan directly whether he went to Poland to obtain technical information. Everything now is just speculation. People can deny it, but there is nothing you can do about it. Should the richest man in Hong Kong be arrested directly, the British government would probably not agree, not to mention the Chinese side.
Bao Zixuan is a flag. If the Americans don't have any evidence, it would be difficult for the British to explain to the people if they arrest people directly. Moreover, the international impact of this matter is too great. Most importantly, people like them may not even be able to leave Hong Kong. Unless they send troops to attack Xiangjiang, that would mean breaking up with Britain and going to war with China. Americans may not be able to bear the consequences.
Arriving at Bao Zixuan's house, Ian Wright felt strange that it was not as luxurious as he imagined. It looked no different from ordinary rich people. You must know that the other party is the richest man in Hong Kong, and the accommodation conditions do not match his status. But if you look closely, you will find that there seem to be security personnel guarding the villas in the front, back and left. You don't need to think about it to know that the surrounding villas have been sold by Bao Zixuan.
Ian Wright didn't say anything about this. It is human nature to pay attention to safety and protect privacy.
Mr. Bao personally went to the door to greet him and said with a smile: "Welcome to you, General Wright and Mrs. Wright. Being able to come here really makes this humble house shine."
Not everyone is qualified to have Bao Zixuan greet him at the door, but it is considered a face-saving gift. Although the house does not meet the status of the richest man in Xiangjiang, it is definitely not a humble house. This is the bad thing about Chinese people, they are too modest.
Ian Wright: "I came to Xiangjiang for vacation, thinking that Mr. Bao would be here; and I also have twins at home, so of course I have to come and visit."
After coming to the living room and sitting down, Mrs. Ian Wright was very happy to see her twin daughters. As a general's wife, she is also very familiar with such occasions. Then he handed Zhang Youran the gift he had prepared long ago. It seemed that it had been discussed in the United States. Therefore, the gift is from their family; the most important thing is a Chinese object, a pair of jade pendants, which are valuable.
The women were chatting about their children together. Zhang Youran's English was absolutely perfect. After all, she had studied in the UK for many years.
The two men are also testing each other, but Ian Wright knows the depth. After all, he is at home, and many things are inconvenient. If you really come and threaten, even the best-tempered person will fall out with you.
Within an hour, the couple chose to leave. And making an agreement to have dinner together the day after tomorrow and having friends over is the most basic polite thing to do.
After Ian Wright left, Bao Shaofu fell into deep thought. As the U.S. Secretary of Defense, the other party is a lieutenant general in the Army; he will never come to Xiangjiang for no reason. If this is a show of goodwill by the US military, it is impossible. After all, they do not need to show goodwill to any country or company. There must be some unknown secret inside. The thought of UFO flashed through his mind, and he immediately understood what it meant.
The United States has military reconnaissance satellites all over the world. Even if radar can't detect anything, why can't satellites in space also detect it? It seemed that the other party had discovered a flying saucer, and Ian Wright came over to prepare for negotiations.
It is reasonable for the other party to be responsible for U.S. military procurement, negotiating UFO procurement contracts, and technology transfer.
Now that he knows the other party's purpose, things will be much easier to handle. At this time, Bao Shaofu was thinking about maximizing his interests, but he didn't know that the Americans had much more information than he expected.
After visiting Bao Zixuan, Ian Wright sent his wife back to the hotel, and he came to the U.S. Office in Hong Kong. Nuremberg is not called Hong Kong for nothing. Many countries in the world have offices in Hong Kong, not to mention the powerful United States.
Ian Wright picked up the encrypted phone and spoke with Defense Secretary Weinberger. Before formal negotiations with Bao Zixuan, he had to have a phone call with his leader. The matters involved are not small, and many are beyond his scope of authority.
I saw Weinberg's voice coming from the other side: "Is that Lieutenant General Ian Wright! I'm Weinberg."
Although it is an encrypted phone call, for the sake of safety, they still need to confirm each other's identities; after all, the content of the conversation between the two is still in the top secret stage.
Ian Wright: "Mr. Minister, I am Ian Wright."
Weinberg: "How is the situation in Xiangjiang? You saw Bao Zixuan today."
Ian Wright: "I took my wife to Bao Zixuan's house today to check it out in a private capacity. The other party hasn't noticed anything yet, but with his intelligence, he should be able to find some clues. It's agreed. Let’s have dinner together the day after tomorrow; before negotiating, I want to know what the White House means.”
After coming to Xiangjiang, I discovered that Bao Zixuan was far more powerful than imagined. Heiyun Manufacturing has completed its layout, but as long as Bao Zixuan wants it, any product in the world can be produced. In addition, the other party possesses technical information left by the Germans, which cannot be underestimated.
In fact, Weinberg was in a bit of a dilemma and wanted to sanction the Black Cloud Group, but this matter was not within the scope of the Ministry of Defense's authority. Neither the business department nor the tax department would agree. The U.S. economy is developing slowly. At this time, attacking the top taxpayers in the country is tantamount to digging one's own grave. At that time, other departments will say that the Ministry of National Defense is thinking about spending money every day and is lagging behind in domestic economic development.
By joining forces to cut military spending, he, as the Minister of Defense, has really reached his end.
Wen Bo thought for a while and said: "The White House does not want to intensify the conflict. The Soviet Union is currently the biggest enemy. We must try our best to win over Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan. However, we cannot let a tiger grow into trouble. You can control the scale yourself."
You have to set your own standards, Ian Wright really wants to hit someone. This is because I want him to take the blame. If the negotiation is successful, I will be happy. If there is a conflict with Bao Zixuan, someone will eventually come out to end it; it's just that he has to bear corresponding responsibilities, and there is no good person. But now that people have arrived in Xiangjiang, they can only bite the bullet and get things done.
