Chapter 3329 A Deception Committed with Three Parts Fake and Seven Parts Real
Mr. Chen's office.
Secretary Guo, Secretary Tang, and Wang Lei from the Internal Affairs Department were sitting around him, along with three recorders who were quietly waiting with paper and pens in hand.
The satellite phone on the desk was ringing incessantly.
As agreed, the next step is to formally contact the alliance.
All the necessary preparations have been made, the bottom line has been drawn up, and all the benefits to be exchanged have been prepared. Everything is ready.
The phone was still ringing, but Old Chen looked completely relaxed.
Seeing the serious expressions on the faces of the people in the room, Old Chen suddenly laughed, which eased the atmosphere in the office.
"Don't be nervous!"
"Just consider it a chat!"
The group looked at each other and then smiled.
Just then, a voice came from the satellite phone on the table, and the office fell silent again.
"Hello there!"
"Ah, Chen! My old friend, it's so good to hear your voice! You know what? I've been waiting for this!"
Pavel's voice came through the phone. Old Chen touched his forehead and glanced at Secretary Guo beside him.
The latter understood that this was a formidable opponent, and then gave the others a meaningful look, signaling them to prepare for a protracted battle!
"Mr. Pavel, I'm so glad to hear your voice. You seem to be in a good mood!"
"It seems the last collaboration was very successful. How about we work together again?"
"We're about to launch a new printer, and this time it's even better..."
Old Chen also revealed a sly smile, not forgetting to dig a pit for the guy opposite him.
Of course, it would be strange if the other party was in a good mood at this time!
There are two balloons floating overhead!
Sure enough, Pavel, facing the gazes of the old man in military uniform, Bemit, and others on the other end of the phone, had a few beads of sweat on his forehead. He quickly said, "Chen, our cooperation has always been very pleasant."
"Therefore, our relationship can be as strong as steel!"
Here, Pavel uses "both of us," which is quite ambiguous.
Both parties can represent the country, or they can represent an individual and those around them.
As for what exactly it is, that's all up to guess!
"Yeah, the last time we met was..."
"Chen, I miss you all so much right now, I miss your delicious food. Of course, I'll bring some vodka with me, to witness our friendship..."
Pavel's voice came through the microphone into the office, sending a chill down the spines of everyone inside!
Old Chen cursed the fatso in his heart.
Last time he left, he brought back a ton of local specialties.
"Haha, you're guests now that you're here, how could we drink your wine!"
"Besides, as for this wine, I think our Chinese baijiu tastes better. Don't worry, next time we come, we'll definitely have a great time!"
Despite cursing inwardly, Old Chen still tried to smooth things over, and Pavel's laughter continued, "Thanks to your help last time, we were able to acquire so many useful computers."
"Chen, I must say, the computers you guys made are fantastic! Our young man really loves them!"
"By the way, aren't you guys participating in this game competition?"
Pavel was a master at changing the subject, and after a few words, Old Chen had no choice but to laugh it off.
"A gaming competition? Of course we have to participate! We're two-time consecutive champions..."
Old Chen chatted with the other person for a while, but Pavel soon couldn't help but get back to the main topic.
"Chen, congratulations! You have successfully shot down the shameful balloon of imperialism and defended the dignity of the revolution..."
“Pavel, you’re right. We will definitely pursue the matter to the end against the United States for provoking us. No matter who it is, if they try to break in, we will be ready with shotguns!”
"As for that balloon, we are working on ways to contain it, so please don't worry about that."
"The glory of the great revolution cannot be stopped by a balloon!"
Old Chen spoke with a powerful and impassioned voice, and the people present almost applauded!
Pavel, however, remained speechless on the phone.
He was afraid that he might actually take the slogan seriously after hearing it so many times.
Moreover, Pavel also discerned the underlying meaning in Old Chen's words: they did not admit to shooting down the balloon.
That won't do!
If he doesn't admit it, how can he continue the conversation on the phone?
“Mr. Chen, let’s not hide anything from each other.”
"Our intelligence personnel have confirmed that the balloon that entered your territory has been shot down."
"Could it be that some other force conquered it?"
"Just kidding, just kidding!"
Pavel's laughter rang out, but Old Chen's face remained expressionless as he simply said, "Is that so?"
"But I haven't received any news!"
On the other end of the phone, Pavel paused for a moment, then asked, "You might not know that yet!"
"After all, information delivery has a time limit; it might still be en route!"
Old Chen smiled and immediately said, "You're right. Perhaps it was the behavior of certain comrades, but I really don't know!"
Pavel gritted his teeth on the other end of the phone, knowing full well that the other person was pretending not to understand, but he couldn't say it outright.
Moreover, the other party is now in control, and they are the ones who need their help.
Even if you want to exert pressure, you have to see if the other person is even willing to sit down at the table!
Are you suggesting I breathe out into the air over there on the other side of the table?
Moreover, this isn't the first time this guy has done this.
Taking a deep breath, Pavel said again, "So, Chen, if you have any thoughts, you can share them with us!"
"Yes, we'd be happy to share!"
"Of course, these are just some immature ideas, and they may not necessarily work!"
"No problem. There's a saying in China: three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang."
"We can also share our experiences, which would be beneficial for both of us!"
Pavel spoke with absolute certainty, but Old Chen sneered.
Is this a sign of compromise?
Given this, Mr. Chen felt that they could take it a step further.
"Of course, I would definitely tell you if I knew."
"However, as you know, if a balloon falls from such a height, it's probably a miracle if it can be found at all."
"I can't prove it to you! Just don't say I lied to you later!"
crunch...
Pavel glanced at Bemit, who had suddenly stood up, his eyes full of inquiry.
Should we continue?
Bemethe stepped forward to take the phone, but was stopped by an elderly man in military uniform standing nearby.
The old man in military uniform nodded with a gloomy face, and Pavel immediately understood what he meant.
“It’s alright, I trust your character and the friendship between fellow revolutionaries…” In the office, Old Chen smiled and winked at the group. After Pavel finished speaking, he calmly said, “Well then, I’ll have someone investigate first, and I’ll call you back later when I have the results.”
"what do you think?"
Pavel's voice was full of gratitude, "Okay, okay, thank you very much!"
"Chen, we are family, brothers."
"Although we sometimes bicker, we should help each other and stand together against outsiders..."
Old Chen immediately chimed in, "That's right, I completely agree with what Mr. Pavel said..."
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Chen immediately rubbed his ears, and then heard bursts of laughter coming from the office.
Tang Mingyue closed her notebook and smiled, "Boss, that was truly a battle of wits and a display of great tact!"
Old Chen picked up his teacup, took a sip of the cold tea, and then said, "This is nothing. This is just talking about the backstabbing and intrigue."
"There are many things they don't say, but they don't hesitate to use underhanded tactics without hesitation!"
As Old Chen sighed, Wang Lei suddenly asked, "Judging from what they said, does it mean they're no longer going to investigate what's inside the balloon?"
This is also what everyone wants to ask.
Seeing this, Old Chen shook his head, and then solemnly said to everyone, "Nothing is absolute. Never take something ambiguous as fact."
Even if the other party seems very sincere!
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded silently.
"Alright, everyone go and get some rest!"
"Gathering information takes time, at least two hours!"
The group laughed and then left the office.
Old Chen shook his head and picked up the phone again.
At the same time, in Susko, an elderly man in military uniform slowly walked out of the room, his face solemn.
Bemit came up to him and asked in a low voice, "Sir, the news must be true, otherwise the other party would not have been so evasive, or even hinted at something in their words."
"If that's the case, why don't we put pressure on them to hand over the data and intelligence?"
The elderly man in military uniform looked at the night sky over Susko with a grave expression. "Do you think they'll hand it over?"
"Or do you think that since they've already won, you'll just resist watching?"
"They might have already obtained the intelligence."
Upon hearing this, Bemit's expression changed.
But considering that the news came from the United States, it was clear that the incident may have already occurred.
Moreover, if it were them, they wouldn't hand it over either.
"So, the most important thing for us now is to know how they fought their way down."
"We know what weapons they used."
"If it's a secret weapon, that's best, buy one!"
Bemit bowed his head in thought, while the old man in military uniform remained silent.
That being said, both of them knew the truth.
This secret weapon will never be sold to outsiders.
In silence, the old man in military uniform lifted his leg and walked out, "If they don't even want to tell us the method."
"Then, there's no need to hold back anymore."
Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Bemet's eyes, and he nodded, saying, "Understood."
Waiting, time ticked by, second by second.
Pavel dared not leave his office; even when he went to the toilet, he would have his assistant stand outside with his phone.
While this wait continues, messages keep circling over Susko, then transforming into information.
Gorzensky arrived, bringing with him the latest news from West Germany.
They have confirmed that one balloon is missing.
Right here in China.
It was captured by China using secret weapons.
Canon also arrived, bringing news from China.
There has been a large-scale mobilization of personnel and frequent plane takeoffs in the Northwest, and some people have even heard explosions.
Everything has proven that the balloon was shot down by China using a secret weapon.
Nothing else matters anymore.
Just as the news was piling up, Pavel's phone finally rang.
“Pavel, I just received news from the local authorities that such a thing did happen.”
"I can't explain the specifics in a short time, but I know that it was shot down by local comrades from their planes."
Old Chen's voice was as steady as ever, but Pavel's heart was filled with bitterness.
This guy is still pretending even now.
"Chen, I don't think there's a single airplane in the world that can fly to an altitude of 40,000 meters right now."
Pavel's expression was grave, fearing both that what the other person said was true and that it wasn't.
"Yeah, I didn't say it could fly 40,000 meters."
Old Chen chuckled and said, "The plane launched a missile when it was flying at 34,000 meters, which destroyed the balloon."
"We lost several planes because of this."
"That's how it happened. But because the missile was so powerful, the balloon and the basket underneath were blown away and fell to the ground, completely destroyed."
"If you need it, I'll have someone send the wreckage over to you."
"Don't worry, we don't want your money. We're all comrades in the revolution."
Pavel looked at the old man in military uniform, who remained silent for a moment before whispering in his ear, "Be more specific."
Pavel nodded, then continued to exchange pleasantries with Old Chen, inquiring about the circumstances of the downing.
Old Chen was well-prepared and gave a flawless answer.
In short, the pilot risked his life to fly the plane to 34,000 meters, and then shot it down with a missile.
As for how it was done, in order to enhance persuasiveness and also to advertise the Jiaoyang 75 computer, I explained how to calculate and choose the angle.
They simply chose to conceal the matter of the blade missile.
This was also agreed upon beforehand.
We can't remain silent, but we can't say everything either.
Saying nothing will offend people, but saying everything will be detrimental to yourself.
On the contrary, this kind of story, which is three parts false and seven parts true, might be believed by the other party, but it's not very useful.
After hanging up the phone, Pavel immediately looked at the old man in military uniform.
But the old man didn't even look at him; he simply instructed the people around him to immediately conduct an assessment and predict the feasibility of the plan.
At the same time, someone brought in a computer to prepare for the assessment.
