Chapter 256: Inside Information

Gru first expressed his position and said: "Our company is very happy to reach an operating agreement with Hongxin, but this matter has encountered some irresistible resistance. ”

"Mr. Gru, I'm here for this. I would like to know the FCC's attitude towards our Red Letter products. Lu Zixin said straight to the point, as the president of the American Telephone and Telephone Company, Gru must have a way to know the inside information of the Federal Communications Commission.

Gru smiled and said, "I don't know much, the Federal Communications Commission actually has different views on Hongxin's products, and I don't know until the specific approval opinions come down." ”

"But don't worry, Mr. Lu, I can introduce you to a friend. Congressman Taylor Walker, who is now a key figure in the ruling party and a member of the Federal Communications Commission. He must have known some inside information, and I think it would have been much easier if he had spoken for Red Letter. ”

"I see, then I'm interested in meeting with Mr. Walker. Lu Zixin said.

Here, the relationship between the capitalist and the members of the political party is far more complicated than expected, and this Taylor Walker must be quite close to AT&T.

Lu Zixin and Gru discussed for a while, and in the evening, Gru specially arranged a dinner party to entertain Lu Zixin and introduce Taylor Walker.

The place where Gru arranges the dinner is in a private villa, which is a large area surrounded by a neat lawn and planted with gardening plants.

And inside there are many facilities readily available, luxurious and rich. In the villa, you can see sexy young waitresses everywhere, all kinds of skin tones.

By the time Lu arrived, Taylor Walker had arrived, in his mid-fifties, fat and in loose robes, lying by the pool.

In the gentle light, a group of tall swimsuit girls were frolicking around, drinking, swimming, and one was giving him a massage.

Taylor Walker was drinking champagne while molesting a young girl who was more than thirty years younger than him, laughing unbridledly.

Gru was apparently accustomed to it, and said, "Mr. Walker has always been very casual in his private activities. ”

Lu Zixin smiled and said nothing, this is casual, if this guy drinks a little more, I'm afraid he will have to perform an adult movie live next to this outdoor pool.

Gru stepped forward and said loudly, "Mr. Walker, Mr. Lu Yan of the Hongxin Group has arrived. ”

Taylor Walker glanced sideways at Lu Zixin, sat up and said with a smile: "Huaxia's friends have arrived, why don't you welcome them?"

After he finished speaking, several girls rushed over and gathered around Lu Zixin. Lu Zixin waved his hand and said, "I'm here to talk about business." ”

Gru said to them, "Just be on the side. ”

Lu Zixin sat next to Taylor Walker, Gru added an extra chair, and the three of them drank a glass of champagne before they began to talk.

Lu Zixin also learned English and mastered a lot by memory, but the spoken English was not very standard, so Gru replaced him to help with the questioning.

He said: "Mr. Walker, President Lu Yan of Hongxin came to the United States this time to cooperate with AT&T to sell their products in the American market. But we've had some resistance from the FCC, and you know why?"

"Hahaha!" Tyler Walker laughed, "This is a secret in the committee, and you can't talk nonsense." ”

Lu Zixin smiled slightly and said, "We are just chatting between friends, and we won't say anything when we hear it." ”

Gru nodded and said, "Mr. Lu Yan's friend is very friendly. ”

Taylor Walker laughed, "I know he's not only friendly, but he's also very wealthy! I also hope that Red Letter will contribute to our economic development in the United States, but some people don't think so." ”

He has something to say, but he doesn't say it directly, he is deliberately selling off. Lu Zixin was not in a hurry, if he was too eager to ask, he would fall behind.

He shifted the subject to the villa and said, "It's such a great place, I've always wanted to buy a holiday estate, like this." ”

Gru smiled: "Here, not only the manor, you can also buy a large farm, and you can race horses in your own home." ”

"It's a good idea. Lu Zixin nodded.

The two chatted farther and farther away, Taylor Walker became impatient, he motioned to the young girl next to him to pour him a glass of champagne, and said, "The problem of red letters is difficult to solve. ”

Lu Zixin asked, "What's the trouble?"

As soon as Taylor Walker waved his hand, the girls dodged and he said slowly, "After AT&T submitted its cooperation with Red Letter, we at the FCC received a joint opinion from as many as twenty-five members of Congress. ”

At the same time, there is also a warning from the national information security department, requiring the committee to conduct a strict review of Hongxin's products. ”

"They believe that the chips of Hongxin smart products are likely to have a 'backdoor', which has the risk of leaking user privacy and endangering the information security of the United States. ”

When Lu Zixin heard this, he sneered in his heart, it was really ridiculous. The United States has caused a scandal of using smart products to monitor user privacy in the background, which has caused unanimous accusations from all over the world, and now they actually treat red letters as the same as them.

Lu Zixin said: "Mr. Walker, I guarantee that there is absolutely no so-called backend in our products, and we will not involve user privacy in any way. ”

Taylor Walker shrugged and said, "I'd love to believe you, too, but it needs proof." ”

"As far as I know, most members of the Federal Communications Commission and the U.S. Department of Information Security agree that there may be security vulnerabilities in the smart chips of Hongxin smart products, and if nothing else, your cooperation will not be possible. ”

Lu Zixin was already prepared for this news, and he asked: "Mr. Walker, how do you think Hongxin can prove that he has no problems and obtain formal business qualifications?"

Taylor Walker smiled mysteriously, looked at Lu Zixin with deep meaning, picked up his wine glass, and said while shaking: "In this land where Lady Liberty sings, everything is possible. The existing ideas are not impossible to change, only need to make corresponding changes, or in other words, pay some price, it depends on whether Mr. Lu Yan is reluctant to do so. ”

Lu Zixin frowned slightly, what does this guy mean, is he looking for himself to ask for benefits? Or is there something else.

At this time, Gru interjected: "Since they think there is a problem with the chip, then it is enough to solve the problem with the chip, right?"

Taylor Walker nodded and said, "Gru is really a smart entrepreneur. ”
