Chapter 428
"One million dollars." Cook did not answer directly, but offered a high price.
"Okay, no problem, transfer the money immediately." Fengyun said.
A million dollars, Fengyun really didn't see it in his eyes now.
"Do you think Freemasonry still has a unified leader now?" Cook asked very strangely.
In the Lighthouse Country alone, Freemasonry has developed more than 5,000 clubs in recent years.
Although they seem to be connected on the surface, they are actually unrelated.
Some clubs have dozens or even a few people, while some clubs have hundreds or thousands of people.
Rather than Freemasonry, it is more accurate to say that it is a private club for wealthy people.
In addition, the fierce struggle between old capital and emerging capital over the years has made them a mess.
In other words, Fengyun cares too much about the name of Freemasonry and falls into the vicious circle of his own mindset.
Now, after Cook's reminder, he has figured everything out.
With a "slap", he slapped himself hard.
Just this one sentence, he wasted $1 million. He was really stupid.
"Mr. Feng, have you figured it out? The fact is that simple. You smart people always like to make up some nonsense." Cook got the advantage and continued to mock Fengyun.
Fengyun could only express his helplessness. He was stupid and couldn't blame others.
"So, is it someone or a certain force that is messing with me?" Although Fengyun's question was a question, his tone was affirmative.
"Okay, for the sake of $1 million, I will reveal more information to you. According to the information we have at the CIA, the organization targeting you may be a consortium in Western Europe. Perhaps you have stepped on the interests of others?"
Cook's words killed several birds with one stone.
Not only did he provoke the relationship between Fengyun and those chaebols in Western Europe, but at the same time, it seemed to warn Fengyun not to cross the line when playing games, otherwise he would be targeted by others.
As for whether Fengyun believed it or not, Cook didn't care.
For those old hands who have been dealing with intelligence for a lifetime, they don't need to make the other party believe it completely. It's enough to plant a seed of doubt in your heart.
When the time is right, the seed will naturally sprout and grow.
The enemy of the enemy is the ally.
The CIA and the old chaebols in Western Europe are at odds with each other, and the emerging chaebols in the lighthouse country are also at odds with the old chaebols.
The market is only so big, and if others eat more, you will eat less. Therefore, in order to protect their own interests, everyone is using their own means and showing their magical powers.
"General Cook, do me another favor. Those reporters are so annoying. Can your CIA help me deal with them?" Fengyun said with a smile.
"No, that's impossible. In our country, the law supports freedom of speech. So, I can't do what you said." Cook rejected Fengyun's request without thinking.
"General, don't be impatient. I haven't finished my words yet." Fengyun cleared his throat and continued, "Of course I won't let you work for nothing. For example, I got a very interesting piece of information. You seem to be planning to eavesdrop on all citizens?"
"No, this is slander. We won't do that." Cook righteously refuted Fengyun's false remarks.
However, a huge wave of emotion was stirred up in his heart.
Their CIA did have such a plan, but it was not approved by the higher authorities. However, they have already implemented it secretly on a small scale in some places.
"There are undercover personnel from the other side in the CIA, and their positions are not low." This is what Cook thought of the first time.
"Okay, okay, my general, since you say this is slander, then it is slander. I just said so, and you just listened to it. I won't talk nonsense outside. You can rest assured about the credibility of our Crow."
After listening to Fengyun's words, Cook did not continue to speak.
Fengyun continued, "Well, the above are just some gossips I heard, don't take them seriously. Next, to show my sincerity, our designers have designed a brand new chip.
It is another comprehensive improvement based on 80486. I named it the Pentium series."
Listening to Fengyun's words quietly, Cook did not show any impatience or interrupt Fengyun.
"Now I'm thinking, which company should I give this Pentium to? I think Canon and Fujitsu in Sakura Country are also pretty good. If I give the chip to them, I think they will definitely provide me with a generous return. What do you think, dear general?"
"No, you can't do that."
The chip war between Sakura Country and Lighthouse Country is in full swing. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.
Even in the field of lithography machines, Canon has occupied 80% of the entire market.
If the Pentium chip is handed over to the company of Sakura Country, Cook can't imagine what kind of blow it will be to the chip industry of Lighthouse Country.
Blackmail, this is naked blackmail from the other party.
Fengyun has kidnapped the entire chip industry chain of Lighthouse Country.
From a legal perspective, although this behavior is not illegal, the impact it causes is much greater than that of terrorists.
If If there is a choice, Cook would even choose to let the Lighthouse Country suffer a terrorist attack, and he does not want Fengyun to hand over the Pentium chip to the company in the Sakura Country.
As the proportion of technological products in the military becomes more and more important, more and more things are inseparable from chips.
A high-performance and stable chip is an indispensable and important part of the entire military industry and even the entire industrial system.
Fengyun has also thought about handing over the Pentium chip to the Dragon Country, but according to the current basic research and development strength of the Dragon Country, the production process will not meet the requirements, and it will even cause a break in the technology line.
"What do you want? "Cook is not stupid, he immediately knew what the other party meant.
If the other party really wanted to hand over the chip to the company in Sakura Country, they would not have mentioned it to him at all.
For example, a company in Sakura Country secretly sold a nine-axis five-linkage machining center to Bear Country, which resulted in the submarine of Lighthouse Country not being able to detect the sonar of Bear Country's submarine.
This is the other party kidnapping the chip industry and blackmailing him.
However, what can Cook do in the face of such a blatant conspiracy?
Is it to reject the other party's request, or to bet on the other party's national sentiment and not sell things to Sakura Country?
All of this is nonsense.
As a person who puts interests above all else, Cook can't afford to gamble, and he dares not to gamble.
