Volume 2 The Return of the Child, Chapter 9: Hot Spots
After a routine security check, Wesley walked into the White House and followed the secretary to room 9
"Okay, of course no problem" Japel beckoned to Wesley, who walked in, and shook his hand at the secretary, "That's for sure, I'll arrange for Lynch to go to London to meet you as soon as possible, and other questions, you can ask them at any time, and we will do our best to help the UK in any way we can"
Putting down the phone microphone, Japel let out a sigh
The farce of the United Nations has just ended, and before he has time to leave for Brussels to attend the NATO summit, China has created new troubles in South America, thinking of Britain's situation, Japel also feels that the United States is trying its best to avoid direct conflict with China, in order to save face, Britain has to carry the "empire on which the sun never sets" with China a hundred years ago, and the current Britain can only be regarded as a second-rate country
"Is there anything that matters?"
Wesley nodded and sat down in the chair across from the president, "Just received a request from Mi 5 that we can provide information about J-10, Air Police 200, and China's conventional submarines."
Japel frowned slightly, "Fan 5, do you know that we have this information in our hands?" โ
"We have been working with Mi 5, the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War has been over for more than three months, we have obtained some wreckage of J-10 fighter jets in India, and collected the electronic signals of the Air Police 2000 AWACS aircraft" Wesley smiled bitterly, "Maybe, Mi 5 has what they need for us"
"What do you think should be done?" Japell picked up his coffee cup
"The British are too sensitive," Wesley shrugged his shoulders, "We revealed the information we gathered to N TV, I didn't expect the British to have such a strong reaction Judging from the information we have now, it will take at least five years for Argentina to fully grasp the purchased Chinese weapons In addition, Argentina seriously lacks the ability to project troops, and even after five years, the threat to the Falklands is not very large"
Japel nodded slightly, he had been paying attention to this matter
"China's doing this, coupled with the results of the fourth Indo-Pakistani war, is a good thing for us, Brazil will definitely not consider buying Russian Su-37 fighter jets, the 'Mirage 2000' has a very bad performance in the war, and France's Rafale is very likely to be out, and the only place left is the European joint production site, 'EF2000 and our F-35, if we can let Britain play a role, the F-35 has an almost 100% chance of going out of the ground, but we have to consider the chain reaction caused by this."
"What do you mean?" Japel frowned
"Argentina is only the third stop of Ji Youguo's visit to nine countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe, and he will visit six countries next, I am afraid that it will cause us more trouble."
Jappel's expression immediately became gloomy, and Ji Youguo gave him a heart-pounding feeling every time he went to a country
"In any case, Ji Youguo will definitely take this opportunity to expand China's influence," Wesley also has a headache, and Ji Youguo will be tired and busy for as long as he is out for tens of thousands of employees in the CIA, "In recent years, the relations between China and South Africa in terms of economy, trade, politics, and diplomacy have developed very rapidly, and if it is not surprising, Ji Youguo will sign an important cooperation agreement with the President of South Africa in three to four days."
"At least South Africa will not import weapons from China"
Wesley smiled bitterly and said, "But there is no guarantee that South Africa will not sell advanced military technology to China"
Japel sighed and motioned for Wesley to continue
"It is quite possible that Egypt will buy weapons and equipment from China, although the amount will not be too large to compare with Argentina, but it will certainly have a negative impact on our position in the Middle East and among the Arab countries"
"In any case, Egypt will not be the vanguard, and if necessary, we must provide more aid to Israel"
"Saudi Arabia's problem is not very big, even if it gets close to China, hopes to use China's influence to improve its international status, and even symbolically buys a batch of weapons from China, it will not change the basic policy.
"You put the news out and give those oil giants a headache"
Wesley nodded, and added: "Iran's problems are very complicated, and although it has abandoned its nuclear program, Iran has been seeking to become a hegemon in the Gulf region
In the past, China's relations with Iran have been very close, and China's oil companies have been expanding their investment in Iran and cooperating with Iran's state-owned oil companies.
"China must take into account the feelings of Arab countries and Israel, and not go too far out of line"
"That's for sure
Who can be completely sure of Ji Youguo's decision-making? โ
Jappel smiled wryly and didn't argue with Wesley
"The main purpose of Ji Youguo's visit to Pakistan is to deepen bilateral cooperation and promote the construction of the China-Pakistan Free Trade Area, China is undergoing industrial adjustment, many labor-intensive industries will be transferred abroad, Pakistan with a population of more than 100 million is an ideal partner, Pakistan will also try to attract Chinese capital, accelerate economic development, and improve the lives of the people, therefore, in addition to military cooperation, China and Pakistan will be committed to economic cooperation and expand economic and trade exchanges."
"What about Russia?"
"Stabilizing Russia and deepening Sino-Russian relations is the focus of China's foreign policy at this stage, and Ji Youguo's visit to Russia is mainly to enhance bilateral relations through economic and trade exchanges, and Ji Youguo definitely hopes to take this opportunity to reach several important energy and raw material trade agreements with Russia, while Nedmev hopes to carry out more in-depth cooperation with China in projects that have a significant impact on Russia, such as introducing investment, participating in China's large aircraft projects, and jointly developing fifth-generation heavy air supremacy fighters."
Mr. Japell let out a sigh of relief, and he was impressed by the CIA's analysis of the situation
"Of course, we need to focus more on solving the problems at hand"
"The key question is, we have to appease Britain," Jappel pulled the topic back
"I'm ready for the information that Fan 5 wants, and I'm ready to send it out at any time."
Japel pondered for a while and said: "This is not enough, we still have to give more benefits to the UK Some time ago, the British Prime Minister talked to me on the phone, hoping that we would provide the technology of electromagnetic catapults, do you think this is necessary?" โ
Wesley frowned slightly, and said: "Even if we provide the technology, Britain may not be able to manufacture it, besides, the cost of building a catapult production line for one or two aircraft carriers will be so high that the British government cannot accept that a more realistic way is to provide Britain with ready-made electromagnetic catapults."
"Or co-production"
"This would cost us more than a thousand jobs, and there was a risk of leaking critical technologies"
"We should trust Britain, after all, it is our most important ally"
"Your Excellency ...... President"
"I'll think about this question carefully," Japel pressed his hand, "You respond to Fan 5's request first, and I will give you a clear answer after consulting with the other members of the cabinet."
Wesley stopped saying anything and got up to take his leave
"By the way, has there been any progress on Yanbo's side?" Jappel stopped the CIA director, who was about to leave
"He just left for Los Angeles"
"Los Angeles again? He wouldn't go to worship his ancestors for the second time in five days, would he? โ
"I contacted the Los Angeles branch and asked them to send someone to keep an eye on Yanbo" Wesley felt that the president was making a bit of a fuss, "Anyway, Yanbo can't leave the United States without us knowing"
Japel nodded, not delaying the CIA director's precious time
The CIA director did not leave the White House through the front door, but through the back door
Like every nation's intelligence chief, Wesley's identity is so tightly guarded that even many C.I.A. employees don't know what the director looks like
Before getting into the car, Wesley stopped and looked over to the middle-aged man who was taking pictures of his two children on the opposite lawn
Maybe it's a family visiting Washington, D.C
After thinking about it, Wesley didn't get suspicious anymore and got into the GMC off-road vehicle
As soon as the convoy walked away, the middle-aged man put down his camera, took out a ten-dollar bill, and walked up to the two children, "Children, thank you, this is for you"
After getting the money, the two children ran away happily
Liu Xiaobin took out the memory card in the camera, and when he walked towards the car parked on the corner, he quickly took off his long coat, wrapped the camera, and stuffed it into the garbage can on the side of the road
Fifteen minutes later, Liu Xiaobin left Washington in a car
After getting on the highway, he inserted the memory card into a portable card reader, then connected to his mobile phone, and not long after sending the information in the card, Liu Xiaobin's mobile phone rang
"Are you sure?"
"It's been determined, it's exactly who we're looking for"
"Very good, I'm about ......" Liu Xiaobin glanced at his watch, "I'll be back in about six hours, you can contact Brother Li as soon as possible"
"Understood!"
After hanging up the phone, Liu Xiaobin let out a sigh
Thinking of the information he had just obtained, Liu Xiaobin had to admire Li Cunxun's judgment A day ago, before the head of state signed a cooperation agreement with Argentina, Li Cunxun expected that the director of the CIA would go to the White House to report to the president!
It's just that Li Cunxun cares about this matter, why does he?
Could it be that what Wesley reported to Japel was not only about the Fรผhrer's visit to nine countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe, but also about other important matters?
Thinking of this, Liu Xiaobin sped up the car
Damn it*
