Chapter 156: Gift from Fate
In Harbor City, a private room with a luxuriously decorated clubhouse, Monte and Tom were sitting on the sofa smoking a cigar.
Monte picked up the wine glass and signaled to Tom opposite him, and then spoke:
"Tom, try a bite of the bar, this is the top McAllen Single Mai, maybe it will make you feel more comfortable."
Tom shook his head, and after spitting out the smoke in his mouth, he replied:
"Monte, alcohol can no longer comfort me now. I can't understand why China's reaction was so fast this time? We attacked three times in a row and then failed three times in a row. This is something that has never been done before!"
"I have said before that these Chinese people have strong learning ability. Our strategy has been used for more than two years. They have already figured out the key points. It is not surprising that they can come up with corresponding solutions..."
"Strange! Very strange!"
Tom took off the cigar from his mouth and pressed it to the table, and then said in a low and serious tone:
"Monte, this time is different from any one! Haven't you discovered it yet? Every move we took was within their expectations, and even our plan was just implemented until the beginning, they had already figured out the strategy to deal with the entire plan!"
"This is bizarre! I thought we had an undercover agent at first, but this time I handled the transfer to Wen Xiao personally. No one knew what I was going to do until he received the money!"
"Do you know this feeling? It's like there's a prophet among them--yes, I'd rather believe that there are prophets among them, otherwise it would be terrible if you tell me that these strategies were derived from limited information."
After hearing Tom's words, Monte sighed.
"Tom, I know it may be difficult for you to accept this result. To be honest, it is not just you, but me, and those in the Strategic Analysis Office, but that's the case."
"Our opponents are the smartest people in the world. They control the public opinion of the entire country. The reason why you think that Chinese public opinion is better controlled than our country is actually because it has not touched their fundamental interests."
"Don't you remember our failure? The public opinion war we launched against a certain religion has disappeared. As for the recent topic of equal rights, after the official intervention, we have already shown signs of declining."
"To be honest, Tom, in such a country with a national system, it is difficult for them to really rely on public opinion to attack them. They don't use the color revolution!"
"What we can do is just to use our strengths as much as possible and cause some trouble to them--in fact, have we done it too? It's just that it's not that good."
Tom looked at Monte helplessly and said:
"Monte, you don't have to try to comfort me, you and I know that we are not 'not doing that well', but 'being so bad compared to them'."
"Forget it, this battle has not been completed yet. At least, they have not answered our questions directly. After this climax of public opinion has passed, we can still rely on the topic of low treatment of engineers to attack them."
Mengte nodded and pushed the wine glass in front of him to Tom.
"Take a sip. You're right, we didn't completely lose this war. So, we need to continue working hard. By the way, Wen Xiao, his performance is actually very good. Although he suffered consecutive failures, it was not his problem."
"Now he is facing official tax accusations from China. Should we find a way to help him?"
"How to help? At most we can do, we can only help him make up for the so-called missed taxes. He has no value in using China---you know, for such a stained person, the other party will not allow him to enter the core circle."
"Maybe we don't need him to enter the inner circle?"
When Tom was stunned when he heard Monte’s question.
"Don't enter the core circle? What's your plan? Keep keeping him doing research in the Pioneer Project? This is OK, but I can't think of any bigger uses he can do."
Monte smiled and replied:
"Of course I won't just let him do scientific research with such a talent... He will become our spokesperson. Didn't the Huaxia official throw out a girl named Liu Ranran? This is a kind of competition. They want to prove that under their system, scientific scholars will develop better."
"But this is impossible. We will push Wen Xiao to the front of the world, we will give him scientific research results, economic benefits, power and social status... In short, I want him to be our advertising spokesperson."
Tom nodded.
"I understand. What you want to do is to make him an internet celebrity scholar. If that's the case, then there are indeed many things we can do, but it may take time."
"How long do you plan to spend on this? One year? Three years?"
Monte drank all the wine in the cup and then raised two fingers.
"Two years? Well, it's really a suitable time..."
"Not two years, Tom, two months."
"Look, you have not yet fully understood the network environment of China, nor their people."
"Yes, their people are tenacious and intelligent, and these facts are undeniable. But at the same time, they are also impatient."
"They long for success and to reach the sky in one step. To put it in an ancient Chinese poem, it is called 'Become a farmer in the morning and reach the emperor's hall in the evening'."
"A year has been too long for them. They have too many examples of getting rich overnight, so if Wen Xiao really becomes our ad, he must rise faster than those who get rich overnight."
"In one month, I will hand over all the results of the Pioneer Project to him, and then I will convert all these results into benefits."
"I want him to be a real winner in life in two months."
Hearing this, Tom's brow frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly stretched out again.
"I understand what you mean. But we need to do another thing--we can get what we give him at any time, right?"
"certainly!"
Monte smiled and nodded at Tom. After pouring wine into his cup, the two cups collided in the dim light.
......
Two days later, Wen Xiao, who was still busy with his own research in the laboratory, suddenly received a message.
The Navigator Project will merge the topics and merge all related topics into a major topic that is connected upstream and downstream, including dozens of topics that come together from materials to thermal power, from pneumatic design to finishing.
And he will be selected as the leader of all these topics.
This is an unprecedented honor and a feat of reaching the sky in one step.
Even Wen Xiao, who is still worried about tax investigations, has the illusion that he must have the full enjoyment of life at this moment.
He couldn't wait to call Lin Xin to inform her of the good news. Lin Xin's tone on the other end of the phone was even more excited than him.
But what he didn't know was that after hanging up the phone, Lin Xin's face suddenly became cold.
Then, a cold smile appeared.
