MTL - Number One Player-Chapter 223 The mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is behind
"It's raining really hard," the security guard who had just retired from patrol duty took off his rain jacket and sighed to his partner, "It's been raining for almost a day and a night, right?"
"Yeah," his partner echoed, and quickly took a dry towel and wiped his face, "It's rare to see such heavy rain during this time."
Since last night, the torrential rain outside has been frantically falling, which has also made the difficulty of their security work several levels at once, which has brought great pressure to all the security personnel on duty.
"You said," after changing into a dry set of clothes, the security guard who started the speech lowered his voice, pointed to the ground, and quietly wentssip with his partner, "Is the following experiment a success? already?"
"I think so," his partner also lowered his voice and replied, "but let's not talk about it, the secrecy regulations are there...and, I heard, it seems that a spy escaped yesterday..."
Their two partners were soldiers from Lieutenant General Zhong Qingxiong stationed in the northwest. They received an emergency order and were transferred to this area to join the security mission.
In this heavily defended area, there are not only intelligence personnel from the National Security Bureau, but also duty personnel from the Transcendent Affairs Bureau, as well as ordinary soldiers from their corps. Countless security personnel surrounded this area layer by layer in a very crazy situation.
In addition, the air defense equipment is turned on around the clock, and the vigilance is as if a missile may fall from the sky at any time.
In the orders the two of them received, it was not stated what they were trying to protect.
But after being stationed here for more than half a month, the two partners naturally knew some inside information: this is an epoch-making experiment, and this experiment has reached the most critical juncture.
"When this mission is over, I'll take a good vacation," the security guard stretched. "This confidential mission is long enough. I haven't said a word to my family this month."
"Me too, suffocated," his partner said. Afterwards, he lowered his voice and began to complain, "However, just like this, there are still spies coming in. I can only say that this spy is awesome."
They whispered gossip for a while about the legendary spy who successfully escaped, and then turned the topic back to this mission: "I don't know what's going on next, what kind of experiment is it?"
"It must be a big experiment," his partner said. "I'd love to know what this experiment is about, and I don't know when it will be announced."
"Why do you want to know the content of the experiment?" the younger soldier asked curiously.
"Oh, in that case," the older partner laughed, "I can also brag to my children in the future, saying: When this epoch-making new technology appeared, your father was on the scene doing protection work, and also for this The epoch-making technology has made a great effort!"
"Then," the young soldier asked, "what if the experiment fails?"
"Bah bah bah," the older partner stopped him immediately, "Don't be a rude mouth! Follow my example, pee twice, and spit out this bad luck!"
The young soldier smirked, quickly imitating his partner's appearance, and "Bah" several times.
However, the laboratory did not fail, but the crow's mouth seems to be coming true.
The 24-hour Lingshi New Energy ignition test run is coming to an end. At this moment, from the security personnel to the inspection and recording personnel of various parts, the mood is relaxed.
However, the atmosphere in the control room was not as relaxed as the outside world, but became extremely solemn.
This is not only because those who travel a hundred miles are half and ninety, and the last step must be taken with extra care, but also because…
"Is the news confirmed to be leaked?" Nie Zhibo asked again, frowning tightly.
"It's confirmed that it's leaked," said the reporter standing in front of him with trepidation. "We have located the person who leaked the news. He is a candidate for the second Huaguo Online Extraordinary Exam. He came to the school in advance for admission. Look at the name, I stole some news."
"A candidate for the second Huaguo Online Extraordinary Exam?" Nie Zhibo couldn't help but repeat, "This is a big investment..."
Those who can pass the Huaguo Online Extraordinary Exam, reach the top 10,000 from across the country, and finally be admitted through the political review must be elite talents with no shortage of intelligence, luck, and identity background.
And to train or buy such an elite talent, so that he can leak the news at the risk of treason, it must cost a lot of money behind it.
"We haven't identified the forces behind this man," the reporter said, "but we have a reasonable suspicion that he may have been a nail in the bald eagle FBI."
"Where is this news leaking?" Hearing this, Lu Yanchi, who had projected half of his attention on the experiment and the other half on their conversation, couldn't help turning his head from the console and asked, "Have you caught it?"
"He had already boarded the flight out of the country in advance, and when we found out, the plane had already left the country," the reporter was a little helpless and a little ashamed, "We are trying to track it down. However, it is very difficult to arrest across the border. , may not be able to catch him."
"It's not a big problem for the person who leaked the information. He is on our blacklist and will be caught by us sooner or later."
As someone who has been engaged in intelligence work for many years, Nie Zhibo is not in a hurry to arrest this spy, "Also, it is fortunate that this person was exposed in advance - otherwise, according to his identity, he is likely to infiltrate the Huaguo Transcendental Affairs Bureau. , and then master and reveal more secrets.”
"So," Lu Yanchi frowned, "It's actually a good thing that he exposed in advance?"
"Everything has two sides," Nie Zhibo replied. "I'm just saying that there is actually a good side to this matter—well, I mean, we have to learn to comfort ourselves."
"...My experiment," said this, Lu Yanchi couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Is there really such a big temptation, is it worth exposing yourself as a spy with such an identity?"
"Do you have a little 'small misunderstanding' about the influence of your ignition experiment?" Nie Zhibo couldn't help but covered his forehead, "This is a recyclable and cleaner new energy source with low cost to almost nothing. , a new technology that is destined to open an era..."
Lu Yan smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.
Nie Zhibo turned to the reporter in front of him and asked, "What about the follow-up response after the information leak? How's the summary?"
"I'm going to report to you," the reporter moved the files on the computer, "An hour ago, the Bald Eagle Federal Intelligence Service began a close transfer, and it is still unclear whether this transfer is related to this intelligence leak. ."
"More than half an hour ago, the leaders of some energy, materials, chemical and other groups seemed to hold a secret meeting urgently." The reporter said all possible responses, "They used confidential lines, we did not The content of the meeting can be monitored. However, since the identities of the participants are closely related to Lingshi New Energy Technology, we reasonably suspect that this meeting is related to this news leak.”
"Well, it is indeed possible." Nie Zhibo nodded, "Continue."
"In addition, some research institutes seem to have received relevant news and started their research work when it was obviously not their local working hours," the reporter said, "We reasonably suspect that they received news of our country's technological progress. Stimulate."
"That's all," the reporter raised his head from the computer. "After the news was leaked, we summarized the main changes that were suspected to be related."
"It's a big move..." Lu Yanchi stared at the control panel in front of him and couldn't help sighing, "I don't know what will happen next..."
"Is this a big move?" Nie Zhibo shrugged, "I think it's okay."
"After all, today's news broadcast is destined to cause huge waves in the world," Mu Shiming said to Lu Yanchi in a soothing tone, "Now the waves are just a little bit earlier, that's all, don’t worry."
Lu Yanchi forced a smile.
"The experiment is coming to an end," a researcher walked into the control room and interrupted their conversation, "According to the plan, the commander-in-chief, you see, is it time to give an order?"
"Okay." Lu Yanchi looked at the time, and it was indeed nearing the end stage. He immediately put all his troubles aside and began to devote himself to the end of the experiment.
Upon seeing this, Nie Zhibo moved to another corner of the main control room, no longer disturbing the work of the researchers, but began to be busy on his own battlefield.
Time is a fast and slow thing.
In the concentrated transaction processing, this 24-hour ignition test run experiment finally came to an end.
"No. 1 generator set is fully loaded and everything is normal."
"The spirit stone replacement chain has entered the shutdown process..."
"The spiritual stone replacement chain has been successfully closed."
"The water flow device is starting to cool down..."
"The water flow device has cooled down."
"The generator set has entered a shutdown state..."
One message after another, it reached the general control room.
Lu Yanchi, who was staring at the monitoring screen, forgot the bad news from the outside amid the continuous bombardment of news, and devoted himself to the conclusion of the experiment wholeheartedly.
As expected, the entire Lingshi New Energy Demonstration Reactor device has been turned off in sequence. The temperature of the demonstration reactor is gradually dropping, and the generated power generation is gradually returning to zero.
"The generator has stopped."
The voice of the person who made the report was filled with unparalleled excitement.
"Lingshi New Energy Demonstration Reactor, the first ignition experiment, officially ended!"
"The experiment was successful!"
As soon as the words fell, the people in the control room cheered wildly.
"We succeeded!" "The experiment succeeded!"
Lu Yanchi cheered with everyone. At this moment, he finally returned to his youthful state and began to enjoy this youthful happiness.
Lingshi new energy is destined to be an epoch-making new technology, destined to change the entire era.
Lingshi new energy technology will reduce the price of electricity to an extremely low level, because in essence, the raw material used by Lingshi new energy power generation is the ubiquitous evolutionary factor in the air - this is a cheap, can be regenerated by evolutionary plants There is something that human beings can't wait to consume as much as possible.
At the same time, Lingshi new energy technology is also destined to change the face of many technologies. If energy is no longer the limit of development, then many problems plaguing mankind will be solved.
And as the inventor of such a great technology, the commander-in-chief and chief designer of such a great project, how could Lu Yanchi not rejoice and be ecstatic?
The experiment was successful. Looking at the joyful general control room, Nie Zhibo from the Intelligence Department couldn't help but laugh.
But slowly, his smile stopped.
Staring at the news gathered from all over the world on the screen, Nie Zhibo couldn't help but sighed in a low voice, "The experiment was successful, but..."
He lowered his voice, lowered his voice again, and condensed his own thoughts into a vague sigh:
"The mountains and the rain are about to come and the wind will fill the building..."
----------------------------
One hour after the successful ignition test run experiment, that is, exactly 7:00 pm China time.
The host of the news network broadcast the announcement of the good news that had been prepared.
"Good evening, viewers. Today is Wednesday, May 15th. Welcome to the news broadcast. First of all, I will introduce the main content of today's news broadcast..."
The host of tonight's news broadcast is a prudent, veteran host who can hold the scene.
In fact, let’s be honest, what news network host isn’t battle-hardened and experienced? Any small mistake they make will result in a big deduction of bonuses; any small mistake they make will be discovered and savored by countless people. Those who can sit in the position of the host of this news network are all veterans.
However, even for the sake of the possibility, on the news broadcast program that Lingshi New Energy announced to the world for the first time, after careful consideration, the top finally decided to choose the most stable and infallible person. , as the host of this show.
In any case, this news broadcast will definitely be watched over and over again by many people, and it will also be remembered by history as an important historical material, and there is no room for small mistakes.
And the host didn't live up to expectations. His narration is articulate and his performance is just right.
There was some slight joy in the host's tone, symbolizing the country's recognition of new technologies; but this kind of joy is very euphemistic and gentle, and will not give people - especially those who are far behind in scientific research and others. The people of the country - with a strong sense of excitement.
"...At 6:00 pm on May 14th, the 24-hour ignition trial operation experiment of the Lingshi New Energy Demonstration Reactor was officially launched at the base in Yongliang City, my country."
"Under the leadership of Lu Yanchi, a Chinese scientist, the commander-in-chief of this ignition trial operation, everything went well for this experiment, and the experiment officially ended an hour ago..."
With the introduction of the host, the TV cut into the experimental picture of the ignition test run.
For the sake of confidentiality, there is no equipment appearance or data display in the picture, but from an angle that will not leak secrets, the cheering scene in the control room after the successful conclusion of the experiment was filmed.
"...At the moment when the extraordinary era is coming, it is an honor for our country to grasp the key point of the era."
"The technology of Lingshi New Energy, clean, pollution-free, efficient and renewable, is destined to be a technology that is very important to the entire human race, and it is destined to set off countless changes..."
"We are on a new path, and we are bound to open a new era..."
"Snapped!"
Andrew blankly pressed the TV in front of him.
"New era," he repeated the words in the news broadcast, and couldn't help humming, "Hmph, let's see."
The time now is exactly 7:10 in the morning in the United States, and the sky is already bright. Some people who work far away have already started to get up and prepare breakfast.
And the political lobbyists who were prepared early on have also gotten stuck and rushed to where they should go.
In the one hour and five minutes after the video conference, these capital bosses who used to stand at the top of mankind began to mobilize their energy and paved the way for Lingshi New Energy.
In a capital-based social system, capital can do a lot of things, and the energy that these capital bosses can mobilize is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
In the next time, the entire western newspaper system and network system will block the news of "the successful ignition of the Lingshi new energy demonstration reactor in China".
Ordinary people may think that it is impossible to completely block a message on the Internet.
However, in such an era of eyeball economy, public opinion can completely turn a certain real news into no popularity and almost invisible.
Most people know information from various rankings, various online media, various highly praised articles, various anchor videos and other channels.
To sum up, only news that is popular on the Internet can appear in front of most people.
If the news of Lingshi New Energy will no longer appear on the rankings, if the online media refuses to report on it, if the relevant articles appear, they will not be seen by more people due to "network failure" and other reasons, if the anchors The video posted is not recommended...
Then, a certain network message that is so-called "cannot be shielded" is also shielded in a realistic sense.
There is a well-known concept of "snow hidden" in the entertainment industry. As long as an artist can't make a work and can't get a hot search, even if he still exists, he will be completely forgotten in a few years - maybe in a few years, said GG will be played in a few months.
In the same way, even if a piece of news is inherently shocking, if it is not noticed by the mainstream media, if it is not sent to people by the hot search rankings, etc., then the news is essentially equivalent to non-existence.
However, taking this road, Andrew and the others are actually a last resort.
After all, Jiuqu has demonstrated countless times in the video of "The Extraordinary Age: Eyes from afar" what serious consequences it will bring if technology does not develop rapidly and if it cannot break through the big filter in a short period of time. At the same time, Jiuqu also hinted at the enemy in front of human civilization through that weird eye.
Therefore, a consensus has been formed on the Internet that "technology should develop rapidly".
And based on the credibility and sublime degree of Jiuqu itself, in the case that Jiuqu cannot be slandered, this consensus is difficult to overturn no matter what kind of navy.
As a result, the road of splashing sewage and resisting the new wave of Lingshi's new technology from public opinion was completely blocked.
It is even conceivable that if they really persuaded government officials in some countries to delay the introduction of new Lingshi technology, and assuming the news was exposed on the Internet, what kind of outrage would it cause...
After all, no matter what you say, this is completely harming the interests of the country and the people!
"Let this news not exist," Donald Sylvester said when discussing specific strategies, "We quietly handled things and blocked the entire technology in China."
"If the media doesn't report it and the Internet doesn't pay attention," Donald said slyly, "then, even if there are so few people who notice the news of the Chinese news network, how much response will it cause?"
Jiang is still old and spicy, and Donald's strategy has convinced everyone here.
As a result, they began to completely suppress the news in terms of public opinion, and at the same time began to prepare for lobbying officials.
----------------------
Huaguo, Great Northwest, Yongliang City Base.
"Things are much better than we thought." Nie Zhibo said to Lu Yanchi like this.
At this point, more than three days had passed since the ignition experiment ended. In the past three days, China's intelligence agencies, which are fully functioning, have finally figured out the response strategies of countries around the world.
China has taken the lead in possessing such a new technology that spans the ages, and has completed the whole process from laboratory design to demonstration reactor operation in less than a month. All countries have shown a certain degree of success. vigilance.
Several countries, when the news first came out, urgently asked China to share technology, claiming that this epoch-making technology cannot be monopolized by one country.
The diplomats who had been prepared for a long time began to play Tai Chi, and proposed plans such as "technology for technology, technology for resources, technology for policy" and so on.
However, after a while, those urgent and aggressive negotiations suddenly slowed down. It seems that the spirit of Tai Chi has spread from China to the world, and every diplomat is familiar with the essence of evasion in Tai Chi.
This greatly reduces the pressure on China.
Among the plans that China has prepared in advance, there are not only response plans to countries around the world and diplomatic relations proposals, but also response plans to oil and energy-related interest groups, including but not limited to various economic blows, various Suicide economic attacks, etc.
Fortunately, the measures taken by their enemies were not as vicious as they had imagined.
"It seems that they are mainly taking two measures," Nie Zhibo said. "One is to block the news that Huaguo has invented Lingshi new energy, and the other is to try to prevent the spread of new energy technology."
"Uh, this is a good thing for us..." Lu Yanchi was stunned. He was quite nervous at first, worried about the strange responses of the politicians and capitalists who received the news in advance, "They don't want this technology, we can just make a fortune in silence! Speed up the application of new technologies. , hurry up to develop yourself!"
"That's right, this is really not bad news for us," Nie Zhibo nodded in agreement, with a weird smile on his face, "Other countries are willing to harm their own national interests, and it has nothing to do with our country. ?"
"Fortunately, they don't have any more vicious means," Lu Yan sighed in relief, "I was worried about means like oil sanctions, economic attacks, etc..."
"Hey, they dare to use oil sanctions. Isn't this forcing us to speed up the application of Lingshi new energy? They dare to use economic attacks, aren't they sending their own destiny to us?" Nie Zhibo shook his head and commented. Said, "Only irrational people will launch these attacks without thinking. Fortunately, those politicians and capitalists seem to have their own reason."
In Nie Zhibo's heart, he was really lucky.
To be honest, he was indeed a little worried that he would usher in a more turbulent offensive.
Fortunately, at present, it seems that these countermeasures hurt the interests of other countries, and have not hurt the interests of China very much.
However, then again, those vicious tricks that kill the enemy and lose one thousand (yes, I didn't say the wrong number) are all tricks to kill one hundred enemies and lose one thousand (yes, I didn't say the wrong number) - think about it, to make Huaguo such a world power Pay the price, those who dare to attack are destined to pay more.
Fortunately, their enemies did not seem to have lost their minds to this point.
Capitalists, it seems that interests are still the top priority.
"A dog bites a dog, a mouthful of hair," Nie Zhibo commented in a slightly sarcastic manner, "We just need to be ourselves."
"That's right, we just need to be ourselves." Lu Yanchi nodded thoughtfully, "Well, I think about it, the trial operation of the demonstration reactor was very successful, and then we can officially build the Lingshi power generation commercial reactor. If we If the speed is fast enough, the grid-connected power generation work can be completed within three months, and the power supply needs of the entire northwest region can be met by the end of the year.”
"This speed," Nie Zhibo couldn't help but click his tongue twice and sighed, "It's really fast!"
"I said it slowed down," Lu Yanchi smiled modestly, "I still consider that we should first observe the power generation status of the Lingshi reactor, so as to avoid any problems that we did not consider. If you really go at full speed, Yes, this year, we can use the energy of the Lingshi reactor to meet the national power generation demand and reduce the electricity bill to an unimaginably low level."
"If the electricity bill is low," Lu Yanchi's expression brought hope for the future, and a smile emerged from the corner of his mouth, "The production cost of many factories will be reduced, and oil and coal will be completely removed from the fuel market. Withdrawal, there are also some technologies that were originally difficult to apply, such as turning seawater into freshwater, which can also be taken into consideration..."
"That's a good feeling," Nie Zhibo also put a smile on his face, "Let us speed up the development of China and leave other countries far behind."
----------------------
Contrary to the harmony inside the Huaguo Yongliang City base, the atmosphere in the conference room of the Bald Eagle Federal Intelligence Agency-Transcendent Times Affairs Department was very stagnant.
"They are treasonous!" General Carter threw the document in his hand on the table with a loud bang.
"Who are the 'they' you're talking about?" Stuart Sam Wyfred, the head of the FBI's Extraordinary Age Handling Division, folded his hands and leaned back in his chair, saying slowly, "Treason. It's a very serious crime, please don't accuse it indiscriminately."
In the wave of extraordinary times, like China, the Bald Eagle Federation has also established a special department for dealing with extraordinary affairs.
However, due to the special administrative and military status of their country, the processing department of this extraordinary era was ultimately attached to the Federal Intelligence Service and was a subordinate department of the Federal Intelligence Service.
Of course, it is a subordinate department in name, but in fact, due to the particularity of the times, this department has a near-independent nature, and Stuart Wyfred, who is the Minister of Processing, also works with the military, government, scientific research So, the major capitalists, etc., all maintain a delicate relationship.
General Carteret was his comrade-in-arms when he served in the military. The two had a deadly friendship and was an important pillar of his military relationship.
"Who else is there?" General Carter snorted coldly, "Isn't it just those **** capitalists, and those officials controlled by **** capitalists who have no heart at all!"
"We, the country built on such a game system," Minister Stuart couldn't help laughing, "we abide by our game system, which is the guarantee of all fairness and justice - those capitalists and officials, Does it violate the game system?"
"They are betraying national interests, isn't this a violation of the rules of the game?" General Carteret accused, "Now we have made almost no progress in the negotiation with China on the introduction of Lingshi new energy technology. Isn't it delaying the country's development?"
"Those negotiators are stuck on the so-called bottom line, and they obviously don't want to talk about it," General Carteret angrily turned around in the conference room, "The Chinese are also aware of We play like this, and they'd love to see us kill ourselves!"
"General," Minister Stuart couldn't help sighing as someone who has great authority in the negotiation of new energy technology in the extraordinary era, "although you think they are treasonous, but I still have to say for those people A word."
General Carter raised his eyebrows and stopped. His tone was disdainful: "You said?"
"General, think about it," Minister Stuart leaned forward, looked at the loyal and patriotic general in front of him, and said sincerely, "if those big companies really fall down like this unprepared, they will pay us nothing. Eagle Federation, is it really a good thing?"
"What a terrible economic chain wave will the collapse of a large enterprise bring, and it may even trigger another economic crisis," Minister Stuart said. "The aftermath of the subprime mortgage crisis has been delayed since 2008 until now. Now, if there is another big blow, can our Bald Eagle Federation really be able to hold on?"
General Carter was dumbfounded.
"After receiving the urgent message from our informant about the ignition experiment of Lingshi New Energy," Minister Stuart leaned back on his chair, "I immediately forwarded this message to Egypt. The current helm of Rickmeier Energy Group."
"I'm not out of kindness, nor do I have any interests with them," Minister Stuart narrowed his eyes, "I just want them to have a buffer, lest they really make something tragic, the whole A drag on the Bald Eagle Commonwealth."
"I'm an upright conspiracy," Minister Stuart laughed. "Even if they know that I leaked the news on purpose, they can only thank me for my kindness, and then obediently jump into the trap I set up..."
Hearing this, General Carter was stunned for a long time, and finally squeezed out a sentence: "You are really thoughtful..."
"So, rest assured, my dear general," Minister Stuart smiled methodically, "they are not treasonous, and they can't do anything treasonous."
"Then how do you plan to end it?" General Cartwright asked. "It's impossible for those guys to keep delaying the efficiency of the negotiation, right?"
"I've prepared some bottom-up plans for them," replied Minister Stuart, "but these methods are still a bit difficult for me - after all, they are big capitalists, and they really want to deal with me, I look so weak, pitiful, and helpless." After saying the last sentence, he shuddered specially, making a look of shrinking.
"Need help?" Although he knew that the person in front of him was pretending, General Carter couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Don't worry, don't worry," Minister Stuart laughed, "don't forget, Jiuqu is still watching everything."
"But," General Carter was stunned, wondering why Stuart put his confidence in Jiuqu, "Isn't something wrong with Jiuqu?"
"Don't believe the messy words on the Internet," Minister Stuart was very confident in Jiuqu. "How could such a strong person have an accident silently?"
"Some people can't jump for too long," he said meaningfully. "The wheel of history will crush everything that stands in front of him."
"Maybe..." For some reason, General Carter was chilled by Stuart's words.
"Hey, those old folks who are still wary of extraordinary abilities," Stuart commented, "They really don't know what it is like to have extraordinary abilities."
"What is your extraordinary ability?" General Cartwright couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Confidentiality," Minister Stuart smiled, "but what I can tell you is that I cleared a copy of [Riddle Chain]."
General Carter choked for a moment, then replied stubbornly: "No wonder you have become so insidious now..."
"Hahahahaha!" Hearing this, Minister Stuart couldn't help laughing.
- The mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is behind.
- Serial bureau sets serial bureaus, who is not a smart person?
-Only the brief written summary in the game [World Situation] truthfully records all the intrigues and intrigues during this period of time.
