Chapter 485: Institutional Disadvantages
“Bang!” Director Najib slammed a stack of information on the table angrily.
"Bullshit! It's all a bunch of nonsense! It's either possible or maybe!
I want to know now, where did this inexplicable 'optical chip' technology come from? Come!”
The intelligence officers under my command look at me and I look at you, but no one dares to stand up and speak.
"Tell me! You can usually talk about which mistress Emperor Fuso has found, but now that it's serious business, can't you say anything?
The other party has such an important scientific and technological breakthrough, we The intelligence department did not receive any information in advance.
This is serious malfeasance! Dereliction of duty!
Do you know that because of this incident, we have become the laughing stock of the entire intelligence department?
The Black Palace asked me to give a reasonable explanation, but Now, let alone exact information, you can only guess at the possibility of the source of the technology!
Is it your guess I want? What I want is definite evidence!
Does the organization’s annual salary of one million just support a bunch of losers? "
Director Najib blushed and slapped the table with his neck thick, spittle flying everywhere. When he finally scolded enough, he panted and looked at one of them.
"Blair, You are the person in charge of the Juchang Love Search. Please give me an explanation! ”
The subordinate whose name was called suddenly looked bitter.
"Director, the other party's confidentiality work is too strict. I used all resources and manpower to investigate for a whole week.
But except that the technology flowed out from the hands of the core senior management of Juchang, there was no Clues.
The other party also put up a lot of smoke bombs, which made our intelligence collection work difficult."
Seeing that Director Naji was about to get angry again, he quickly added.
“Director, although I can’t find the source of the technology yet, I can guarantee that it is impossible to achieve such an amazing breakthrough by relying solely on the few spare tire plans of the Ju Factory.
The other party's major scientific research institutions and R&D fund flows are also under our strict surveillance.
Let alone being deeply involved in the field of optical chips, there were not even serious projects established before.
No matter how talented a scientist is, it is impossible to develop this technology without funds.
So I have reason to suspect that the source of this technology probably does not come from within Juchang! ”
“So? "Director Najib still stared at him with an unkind expression.
Seeing that the Director was still not satisfied, Blair had no choice but to bite the bullet and die as a fellow Taoist rather than a poor Taoist...
“So Director, I don’t think we should focus our investigation on Ju Chang.
Optical chips are systems engineering, and this technology cannot be relied upon Accidental breakthroughs will definitely require massive financial and talent support.
There is a high probability that only national-level forces can promote this level of technological research.
It is even possible that it is China. Behind the scenes support
In this case, there is no reason why the other party's relevant scientific research institutions, talents in related fields, and even journals, papers, and academic conferences should not have any warning in advance..."
As soon as these words came out, another intelligence officer beside him His face immediately turned black.
Sure enough, the next moment Najib looked at him slowly and said in a gloomy tone
"Lawrence, you are the chief strategic intelligence officer of China's science and technology, and the other party is like this in the field of optical chips. Major strategic breakthroughs certainly do not happen overnight.
However, your department did not receive any information in advance. Is this reasonable? ”
The intelligence officer named Lawrence had already greeted his colleague Blair and his whole family in his mind.
Obviously there was a problem with the intelligence you were responsible for, but you still blamed me?
“Director, you know that we have no intelligence collection plan for the optical chip project at all.
After all, the top experts and institutions in this field are within our country and those of our Western allies. .
China's investment in R&D has been growing at an alarming rate in recent years, but I have never heard of the other party having any large-scale plans in the technical direction of 'optical chips'. br>
When it comes to choosing the next generation technology route, the other party’s main investment target should be quantum chips.
As for optical chips, let alone specific important results, even related papers are very few with practical significance.
If you want to talk about nuclear technology and quantum technology, I can barely believe that China will be ahead of us one day. After all, the other side has spent a lot of money and invested hundreds of thousands of talents.
Optical chips...
The sudden emergence of this technology is neither realistic nor reasonable..."
"Unrealistic? Unreasonable? Do you want to tell me that this so-called optical chip is just a cover?
Theories can be faked, and they are almost in mass production. Do you want to tell me that this is a fake project?< br>
Could it be that they invested huge sums of money to build a production line and boldly cut off raw material orders just to create a global joke? "
Najib stared at him fiercely.
The other party was speechless and could only say weakly.
"Of course I don't mean that. I just think this technology is too strange and cannot be explained by common sense.
According to the evaluation of the science and technology department, even the world's top scientific research institutions want to develop in the field of optical chips. A breakthrough will take at least ten or twenty years.
And it will only be possible with continuous financial support..."
"Pa!" He couldn't bear it. Director Ji finally couldn't help it and slapped the table angrily!
"Ten or twenty years? Then tell me, why does this thing appear now?
Do you want to say that what China has mastered is not optical chip technology, but the invention of a time-travel machine? "
"This..."
"Enough! I've had enough of your excuses for your incompetence!
I will give you three more days. After three days, either give me information or give me a letter of resignation!
Now! Getout! ” Naji growled and pointed at the door.
All the subordinates immediately rolled out of the office in disgrace. A moment later, there was a noise outside the door, and the intelligence officers started arranging intelligence search tasks...
Director Najib Yu Nuwei He looked at the pile of useless information on the table and cursed Fake several times.
The new official took office with three fires. The second fire was doused by a basin of cold water before it was even heated.
Who would have thought that a small chrysanthemum factory could make him, the dignified director of the CIA, so embarrassed.
Why is this happening...
After the anger, Director Najib was deeply puzzled.
Obviously I have a good hand, and I even hit a straight, four or two...
As a result, a 3 just came out, and the opponent's king exploded...
I want it directly I can't afford it...
What's even worse is that I have used so many resources to formulate a series of containment plans that are all-round and without blind spots, and I have even patted the chest of the old leader to ensure the effectiveness of this operation. .
It also comes at a critical juncture in the strategic shift of countries on the other side of the ocean.
At this time, the technological war has just begun, and our side is on the verge of defeat...
Although the opponent's optical chip industry has just started, it is still unclear who will win in the end.
But this is undoubtedly a very bad start.
Not only has the strategic goal not been achieved, it is very likely that the opponent will defeat them first.
On the other side of the de-industrialized ocean, the only things we can get away with now are U.S. dollars and soldiers, which is also high technology that we are proud of.
The national debt remains high, and the stock market remains high. This gradually declining capital empire now relies on these three legs to support it.
No matter which leg has great power, it can cause headaches to the opponent.
But at the same time, the three maintain a delicate balance, supporting each other and restricting each other. No matter which leg is lame, it will bring about a series of chain reactions.
Leading in science and technology... is not only the basis for the soldiers to dominate the world, but also an important basis for global confidence in the US dollar.
If the chip, an important representative of the high-tech field, fails, the impact will not only be affected by several leading technology giants such as Fruit and Cake Tong.
It will be like a point leading to an area, and a large piece will fall directly.
Not to mention the importance of high-end chips in the military field...
To put it lightly, the competitiveness of core enterprises has declined.
To put it seriously, that is the landmark event of the decline of the empire...
Originally, the monopoly advantage accumulated over decades in the chip field was definitely an important trump card used against China.
But now, let alone cooperating with Mao (mao) clothes (yi) war and financial war, Nazdaq technology stocks have evaporated hundreds of billions and fell first, and Wall Street is even more wailing, which can be seen... …
“Director, what should we do next?”
The only deputy left in the room asked cautiously.
“Wei Chuangli has received a lawyer’s letter from Juchang to terminate cooperation and demand compensation. Now he has come to us in a hurry for help.”
The worst thing about this incident is that several companies expressed their loyalty in advance, especially Wei Chuangli, who was the "pioneer" and charged forward.
Not only did they withhold a large amount of raw materials from the chrysanthemum factory, they also shamelessly refused the chrysanthemum factory to ship back their own goods for various reasons, interfering with the normal production schedule of the chrysanthemum factory.
It can be said to be an example of "adding insult to injury".
Although they can use the shameless reason of "force majeure" to forcefully break the contract.
But even if no compensation is required in the end, it is certain that he will be kicked out of the Juchang supply chain.
Not only did they lose orders from the chrysanthemum factory, they also faced a series of subsequent impacts such as damage to their goodwill and possible business retaliation from China.
If it is not good, I am afraid that it will have no choice but to withdraw from the Chinese market.
If Wei Chuangli cooperates honestly with Juchang, or doesn’t dance so happily, maybe he can catch the giant ship of Juchang’s “optical chip” and take the scale of the company to a new level.
But now, not only we have missed a huge opportunity, we may also face a situation where the odds are against us.
I think the shareholders behind Wei Chuangli will feel regretful...
"Let's stabilize them for now..." Najib rubbed his brows with a headache.
Wei Chuangli's loss is insignificant to Najib, but he was heroic when he charged forward for them. If he doesn't give him a pension, how can he ask others to sacrifice their lives in the future?
These capitalists are willing to cooperate with them not because they are patriotic.
If the plan had gone smoothly, if Juchang fell, and several giants such as Fruit and Cake Tong grabbed the market share vacated by Juchang, the hidden benefits would be hundreds of billions!
In the face of such huge benefits, Wei Chuangli's small loss can almost be ignored.
Just give them some soup and water, and it will be enough to revive them with full health.
The reason why Wei Chuangli is so active is because it is profitable. The cake drawn by Director Najib is big and fragrant!
But now that the planned income is about to be wiped out, what else can he use to compensate the other party?
You can’t use CIA funds to fill this hole, right?
Wei Chuangli anticipated this situation and was worried that he would be given a bad check, so he hurriedly wanted them to make up for his losses as promised.
"It is not a big problem to stabilize it temporarily, but it is not a long-term solution after all.
Except for Wei Chuangli, although several other companies have not expressed their stance, they are all panic now.
If If the optical chip project of Ju Factory is allowed to be mass-produced, the industrial alliance we have finally integrated will probably fall apart in a short time..." the deputy worried.
"Well..." Najib's face was gloomy.
How could he not think of this situation?
Facing an opponent they can't win, those capitalists will continue to beat their heads and bleed bloody if they are stupid. Maybe they will directly switch sides and show favor to the opponent the next day.
"How about... we put the plan on hold for now?" the deputy suggested in a low voice.
In any case, the friction has just begun, and the relationship between the two countries has not yet reached the point of incompatibility.
And China has always had a moderate foreign policy towards them...
"No! We must not show weakness at this time! The plan must continue!
Not only execute, but accelerate! ”
Najib categorically rejected the proposal.
End the plan?
Just kidding!
This is no longer his second time being criticized. The problem is solved.
It's a situation where you're in trouble and it's hard to get out of the situation!
The other party used a killer weapon called "optical chip", which completely disrupted his plan.
Keep fighting, you may not be able to beat him.
Let’s not continue the fight. Not only have the huge resources invested in the early stage been completely wasted, but also losing the first battle will be a huge blow to our own morale!
You must know that the current national power on the other side of the ocean is no longer what it used to be, and the country of China is no longer under Wu Xia Amon.
Now if we want to beat the competition with China, there is absolutely no hope in single combat. We can only rely on the Western brothers to fight in groups...
And if the eldest brother takes action, he will be beaten hard. Kabuto, what do you want the boys to think?
Are the big brothers in Young and Dangerous all brainless gangsters who "want to save face and suffer"?
The fundamental reason is that the younger brothers will not follow a boss who has been beaten hard but doesn’t even dare to fart...
How can we lead the team if people’s hearts are lost?
At this time, even if I am injured internally by a palm, I still have to bite the bullet and swallow that mouthful of blood and pretend that I am unscathed...
"Huh! So what if I have skills? Even next year. Even if optical chips are actually mass-produced, they won’t be able to take away the market share of traditional chips all at once. !
We can still pinch their necks and make them uncomfortable for a while.
Taking a step back, even if they have the advantage and eat alone, they will still be hated... ..."
"Director, you mean..."
"Ha! We can't find the source of the technology. Can't we get the technology?
I don't believe it. It's about to be mass-produced. How can they keep this technology for a lifetime?
Besides "Have you forgotten that we still have a hostage on our hands?"
The deputy's eyes lit up.
“Yes! That’s right! If you can’t deceive us, steal, if you can’t steal, rob, if you can’t rob, we will unite all countries, threaten with hostages, and force the other party to disclose the patent!
Based on our accumulation in this technical field, as long as everyone is on the same starting line, we may not lose! "
"Well! "Najib nodded, but his mind shifted to another aspect.
If he can't give in, he is worried about damaging the morale of a group of Western brothers. This reason is only external.
Then it’s even more critical internally!
To say that choosing Ju Factory and Chip as the target for the first shot was actually not Najib’s idea alone. He, the person in charge of intelligence, could not make such a decision. High-level strategic decisions
But will the big shots in the Black Palace attribute this failure to their own strategic mistakes?
Definitely not!
For politicians who “vote is king”, it has long been politically correct to report good news rather than bad news.
The credit must be your own, if there is any mistake...
It must be everyone else's fault!
They will only blame Director Najib for not doing his job well in intelligence work, which resulted in them being unclear about the situation, fighting an unprepared battle, and picking the wrong opponent from the beginning...
A dereliction of duty and incompetence If you don’t take the blame, who will take the blame?
Two important operations failed in succession, and he was keenly aware that although his old leader Pinocchio did not blame him, his recent indifference was beyond words.
He can almost foresee that his political career seems to be getting darker and darker...
Not to mention taking it a step further and joining the cabinet, it is still unclear whether he can keep his current position as director. .
So whether it is externally or internally, he has no way out now and can only go to the dark side...
The plan fails and everything ends.
If the plan succeeds, then he may have a chance of making a comeback...
Thinking of this, a stern look flashed in Director Najib's eyes.
“As long as they haven’t mass-produced it, no matter how advanced the technology is, it’s just paper technology!
snort! He who laughs last laughs best..."
I, the CIA, may not be good at research and development.
But we are professional at destruction!
……
The capital of China.
MSS (General Intelligence Service).
"Mr. Hu, according to the results of our on-site investigation, the optical chip of the Juchang Jinghua project has indeed been successfully taped out, and its performance is only higher than advertised..."
A silver-haired old man was sitting in the main seat, listening to the young female soldier opposite The latest information compiled by the official, his face gradually became a little strange...
"So, we have indeed broken the most difficult shackles around our necks?
And the process... is so Inexplicable? ”
The young female officer coughed awkwardly.
"Ahem! Mr. Hu, it can't be said to be inexplicable. This fully reflects the institutional advantages of our country in stimulating the flexible innovation ability of private economies..."
Mr. Hu gave the other party a blank look.
"Okay, don't put all your money in your face. From you, I only see the disadvantages of the system!"
Female officer: "囧..." (End of this chapter)< br>
