Section 81 Influence within the limits of one's ability

Shen Dongzhao intuitively felt that the men were different, not because he was able to become a high-ranking husband, nor because he could show his understanding of the international situation, or even because he made a classic exposition in the Asian Institute for International Strategic Studies. Rather, it comes from an intuition.

He always felt that this man had an extraordinary keen perception ability, whether it was daily political current affairs or judging specific events, he could always hit the nail on the head and point out the key points.

This is no longer as simple as having the support of the intelligence system, and Shen Dongzhao once thought that this may be due to Liu Ruotong's special status, although Liu Ruotong is nominally a military attache abroad in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. But everyone knows what such a role represents, in fact, it is the intelligence officers set up by the military in foreign embassies, of course, they are not responsible for carrying out special tasks, but are responsible for the comprehensive collection, collation, analysis and judgment of intelligence in a region.

But soon he overturned his initial judgment, not to mention the special disciplinary requirements of Liu Ruotong's department, Shen Dongzhao and Zhao Guodong talked and exchanged many things a few times that could not be covered by Liu Ruotong's excessively narrow intelligence surface, and some things that deviated from Liu Ruotong's scope of work, even Liu Ruotong himself could not understand it so deeply and thoroughly, but Zhao Guodong could always break it down in one sentence, which made Shen Dongzhao a little doubtful that this guy would be from some special institutions. But after understanding through some relationships. Again, it had to be ruled out.

Zhao Guodong didn't know that his fanatical status as a military enthusiast in the memory of later generations provided him with too many things that could not be known in this era, and many things were there. Of course, there are not many fragments left by Zhao Guodong's poor fragmentary memories, except for some super events, he barely has some memories, and everything else is unfortunately annihilated.

Shen Dongzhao felt that this guy had been in the place for a few months, and his calm aura had increased, but his sharpness and sharpness had not diminished at all, but it was hidden deeper, and the two had a few conversations together. He is also full of interest in the director of the Department of Planning and Development of the Ministry of Energy, and always hopes to dig out more from him. But he didn't expect this guy to go down at such a critical moment, which was unimaginable.

In his opinion, with Zhao Guodong's vision and ability, he has been polishing in the Ministry of Energy for a few years, and he is fully qualified to be promoted to a higher position, especially with the nourishment of the Liu family's connections, this should not be a problem. As for the locality, it is said that it is still a remote place, and in this era when everything is centered on economic construction, you have to jump out of the way. You have to talk about actual performance, where the conditions are poor, it is not so easy for you to make political achievements, the objective conditions limit your ability to play, not how you want to achieve it, if you don't get it right, you have to travel to several places, compared to the Ministry of Energy, that is far worse.

In Shen Dongzhao's opinion, Zhao Guodong is the most unlucky, and he should go down with Cai Zhengyang, and the relationship between Cai Zhengyang and Zhao Guodong is not a secret, let alone in their eyes.

"Do you think the United States is determined to fight Iraq?" This question is not a problem, but Shen Dongzhao felt that the other party seemed to be very sure that he could even pinch the time.

"There's nothing to discuss about ironclad, you must be studying it every day, this, the result is not a problem. The question is how long the Americans' smokescreen can be scattered, and this kind of verification and negotiation are all tricks, and the Americans have not thought about finding any weapons of mass destruction at all, because there is no such thing at all. Or if there is, it would have been wiped out in the past decade of sanctions. ”

"What the United States needs now is to find a foothold in the Middle East to ensure absolute control over this core oil-producing region, and not allow the OPEC guys to be there today and tomorrow. One moment to reduce production, the other to limit production, or you have to shout twice in support of the Palestinians, it's as simple as that, and defeat the chicken-killing and scaring monkeys in Iraq. Whoever dares to get along with Uncle Sam is to give his head a hard time! With Iraq as a base area, if necessary, if the Iranian monkey is disobedient, he can even kill the monkey and become a man."

This is not a new topic, the United States has become more and more tough on Iraq, changing the way to toss Iraq, if you are not satisfied, that is, there is a ghost in your heart, if you want to be satisfied, then you have to let the Americans and pee in your home, ten years of sanctions are about to toss the former Middle East power into the sick man of the Middle East, at this time the Americans do not take the opportunity to pick up a bargain, then Bush Jr. is really in vain and the arms dealers to make the relationship so good

"You're saying the Americans are going to move even Iran?" Shen Dongzhao didn't seem to believe it.

"No, the key is how the actions of the Americans in Iraq turned out, that's the key. If the occupation of Iraq succeeds in resolving the internal problems of the Iraqis and turns Iraq into an obedient role like that of South Korea and Japan, then Iran will be in danger. Zhao Guodong said casually: "Of course, this is difficult. The American military Zhuo settlement of Iraq is simple. But if they want to completely settle this country, I am afraid that their resourcefulness and strategy are still a little worse. ”

"Do you think the United States will occupy Iraq?. Shen Dongzhao was a little shocked, Zhao Guodong was not a talker, he knew this very well. Of course, no one takes this seriously, but if the garrison is occupied for a long time, it seems that this is not in line with the style of the Americans, since the Korean War. The Americans are already reluctant to station their own troops in a country that is at war.

"Brother Dongzhao, many things are not static, who can turn a blind eye in front of interests? Iraq's current oil resources are all controlled by Iraq itself, once Saddam Hussein is destroyed, do you think the Americans will not be moved by such a piece of fat and meat, then why did they come? Zhao Guodong smiled, "Partition is inevitable, and the key lies in whether the Americans can do it." ”

The two were discussing how the Americans would resolve Iraq and how long Saddam Hussein would last. These issues have been debated for a long time, although Zhao Guodong has not been able to convince Shen Dongzhao, but many of the points put forward by Zhao Guodong still make Shen Dongzhao feel quite novel, and Zhao Guodong also handed over some things and suggestions that he took the time to write to Shen Dongzhao, only saying that it was some ideas that he pondered, knowing that this would definitely cause some unnecessary trouble, but Zhao Guodong couldn't take care of it much.

Zhao Guodong didn't know how much inspiration he could give Shen Dongzhao and the other people these fragmentary views and opinions that he had fished out of his remaining fragmentary memories, and how valuable the various experiences and lessons summed up by the elites on the Internet after the so-called combat troops of the American GIs were officially withdrawn from Iraq. It is up to Shen Dongzhao to figure it out for himself, and he can only do this.

The communication with Liu Ruotong almost revolves around this, what surprised Zhao Guodong was that Liu Ruotong was transferred, and this time she returned to China for vacation to prepare for the transfer, no wonder her tone was so strange.

From Kazakhstan to Iran, this made Zhao Guodong surprised and a little curious, he didn't expect Liu Ruotong to speak simple Persian, although it was only a simple spoken language, but it was not simple.

Zhao Guodong is becoming more and more interested in Liu Ruotong's true identity, and the transfer to Iran is undoubtedly a manifestation of promotion. Especially in the current situation where the United States is about to go to Iraq, which belongs to the "axis of evil" like Iraq, it means that the organization trusts you.

The discussion between Liu Ruotong and Zhao Guodong inevitably revolved around the possible military attack by the United States against Iraq, but Zhao Guodong corrected Liu Ruotong's view, that is, this is not a military strike, but a real war. A war of total occupation, not as frivolous as the Gulf War that led to the year, is a war that aims to completely subvert destruction and occupy control, and if you fail to see through this, you will make mistakes on many issues.

Liu Ruotong was extremely shocked by the many opinions and news listed by Zhao Guodong, obviously some of the news she knew more carefully and accurately than Shen Dongzhao, she couldn't imagine how Zhao Guodong, a character who could be regarded as an amateur of current politics and military affairs, knew so many things that he should not and could not know, and many things Shen Dongzhao and they could not know.

But in any case, Zhao Guodong provided a lot of new things to Liu Ruotong, which is undoubtedly a great help for Liu Ruotong, who is about to take office in Iran, which will even affect some of Liu Ruotong's analysis and judgment in his work.

But that's all, Zhao Guodong didn't know how much of a difference his efforts in these aspects could make, and at this time he even fantasized about how good he would be if he was the country's No. 1 leader, at least he could win on many issues.

If Zhao Guodong feels that he has done his best on these issues, but he may not have much value and significance, then in some aspects. Zhao Guodong feels that he can still make some beneficial influences, such as helping domestic oil reserves and crude oil futures within the scope of the Ministry of Energy.

Of course, it also depends on one's own influence and dominance, which boils down to strength.
