In the room where Phoebe, Barbara, and the two visitors were, Barbara and Phoebe sat on one side of a low table, on which was placed a sixteen-carat picture with a grid depicted by blue lines, and the picture itself was actually the "O" of the Girls' Generation members from Phoebe's point of view.

Two men sat on the other side of the table, talking.

The man sitting on the left said: "Do you know why Hollywood makes a lot of bad movies every year? Although the directors, screenwriters, and producers of these bad movies are not the most famous, but if you look at the company structure behind them, you can understand that many small companies that make bad movies basically have some background behind them." ”

The man on the left looked at Phoebe slightly diǎn after finishing speaking, while the man on the right, who had been dǎn approving when his companion was talking, was also looking at Phoebe at this time, and the two seemed to be waiting for Phoebe to say something.

However, Phoebe only nodded slightly, and did not say anything else, Barbara beside Phoebe glanced at Phoebe who was not going to speak, and in order not to embarrass the other party, she answered: "Is someone making bad movies to launder money?" or tax avoidance?"

The man on the right looked at Barbara, shook his head, and said, "It is true that there are some people who launder money and avoid taxes in the film industry, but there is a better way to do it now, and there is no need to make movies specifically." Speaking of this, he looked at Phoebe again, as if showing off, and said: "Isn't it the same for you Titan, except for the core business that cannot avoid taxes because of the dealings with government departments, the other aspects of capital transactions are not solved through the tax avoidance company?"

Hearing his companion say this, the man on the left stretched out his hand to stop his companion from continuing to show off, and took over the conversation: "That, in fact, the reason why the film and television industry can flourish in the United States is because this industry has given capital forces a new way to launder money and avoid taxes, and the industry with a large influx of capital will really prosper, just like some competitive sports markets now." However, we are not concerned with the operation of funds, but with other functions of the film and television industry in the social structure. ”

The man who was interrupted just now rushed to say at this time: "That's right! Every day□s_, many people in the industry go to shoot some works that are neither pleasing to the industry nor satisfying the audience. You may not believe it. ”

Although the other party's statement was a declarative sentence, Barbara understood that the two of them seemed to be waiting for Phoebe to answer. Seeing this, Barbara turned sideways slightly, and secretly dǐng Phoebe with the tip of her shoe, Phoebe just glanced at her quickly, but still didn't plan to answer, as a last resort, Barbara had to ask the other party: "Politics?"

The man on the right smiled and slapped Barbara with his finger a few times, and said at the same time: "It's worthy of being a Harvard student who has been a diplomat! However, it is not the kind of propaganda that many people think, but a political propaganda that implicitly shows its own political tendencies, have you ever found it when you watch movies or TV series?"

The man on the left glanced at his companion with a bitter face, everyone knew that Titan was what Phoebe said, and he had planned to attack Phoebe before he came, but the guy next to him saw that Phoebe didn't react, and immediately forgot the original plan because of Barbara's cooperation, which is really ...... If it weren't for the fact that this companion really had a lot of ideas, he really shouldn't have been allowed to come this time-well, even if he wasn't allowed to come, I'm afraid he would only have to think about it, after all, with the information they had, how could the companion not be interested when he knew that he was coming to talk to Phoebe.

And Phoebe still only slightly diǎn after hearing the other party's words, her expression has always maintained a polite smile, and there is no change. As for Barbara, although she has been educated in politics since she was a child, and even devoted herself to the diplomatic field closely related to politics when she grew up, she has never heard of such a statement before.

When Barbara heard this, she thought that the other party was thinking too much, and at the same time, she began to take the opportunity to observe what kind of response Phoebe would make. When she found out that Phoebe was still just smiling, she immediately understood that Phoebe was going to be a pioneer herself this time and try to find out what she wanted to do. And this time is different from before, in all previous negotiations, Phoebe will at least prepare a bottom line for the negotiation to the person in charge, Barbara knows that Phoebe is still waiting, there is only one reason - that is, Phoebe has insufficient information.

Barbara sighed slightly, Phoebe is good in other aspects, but at times, it is too stable, but this is also good, at least Titan has such a "steady" leader, which is also a good thing.

The man on the right added: "Barbara, you used to be a diplomat, do you know how the American television industry cooperated with the authorities in response to Khrushchev's visit in 1959?"

Barbara diǎn dǎn head, after becoming a diplomat, will train in many fields, and foreign-related intelligence officers, too, are also interested in the work of foreign media. But when it comes to 1959, Barbara really can't say a few, after all, there are too many things worth saying about that ice-breaking trip to break the barriers between the East and the West, and even Monroe was asked by Diǎn to "accompany the wine", and the TV media reported on it in addition to the news, what else Barbara did really can't remember.

Phoebe knew something, but these were tentative inferences that had been compiled and analyzed after collecting information, and the evidence supporting the inferences was not enough to form a complete chain of evidence.

After all, the way of storing and processing data at that time was not the mainstream digital storage method now, especially in the television industry at that time, not only did not have such convenient digital equipment as today, but also did not have the videotapes that can be seen occasionally today, and most of the time the production method of TV dramas was the same as that of movies. This makes it quite fragmentary and difficult for Phoebe and Koos to collect pre-digital information.

However, Phoebe is very interested in the view of diǎn proposed by the other party, after all, for her, valuable information is very valuable at all times, and if she can enrich and expand the information base, she doesn't mind letting people dip diǎn cheap. So Phoebe took the initiative to say this time: "I don't know much, but I remember that there was a TV series called "on", and some episodes of this TV series were broadcast during the time of the Camp David meeting. If you look at this drama from the perspective of politics, you will find that since the second episode, it has been using the surface to reason with the Americans, but secretly it can make the Soviets feel the fear and resistance of American society to nuclear war from this film. Moreover, this film has also shown the Soviet Union more than once that the Americans believe that the country that betrayed the social, socialist, righteous, and righteous camp will inevitably be cleaned up by the Soviets themselves in the future. It can be said that Khrushchev, who helped the United States to confuse his great achievements, has to say that if there is evidence to support it, this is a fairly successful case of all-round diplomatic psychological warfare. As for the rest, I don't know much, after all, there is not much information about that period. ”

After hearing Phoebe's words, Barbara also remembered some scenes from the previous training, indeed, as Phoebe said, the media industry in the United States was almost all crazy to cooperate with the U.S. government, some people may really want to support the United States, and some people don't want the Soviets to think that the United States is not afraid of a nuclear war.

Regardless of whether these people's practices were effective or not, at least Barbara knew that the practices of the public media industry at the time did indeed affect the Soviet delegation's judgment of American society. Otherwise, Khrushchev would not have confidently said such things as "we will bury you."

And Barbara also remembered that in the first season of this TV series, it was not only what Phoebe said, but also the satire of the endless demands of the civil rights fighters, and the secret threats against certain European countries and the Soviet Union, and even a little scolding for some of the hegemony of the Soviet Union - you know, the Soviet Union had the advantage at that time.

Barbara knew that Phoebe had no training in this area, but she was not surprised that Phoebe was able to figure out some of these joints, after all, as long as she was a normal person, most of them could see the simple philosophy of life from this TV series. And Phoebe, who is able to develop Titan to this day, is still at ease, and can naturally see through the higher meanings hidden by these philosophies. Therefore, Phoebe felt that Barbara, who was beside her, was much more proud, proud, and admired than usual when she heard her words.

However, Phoebe's target at this time was not Barbara, but the two people opposite. She had been paying attention to the interests of the two of them as she spoke, and she noticed that they both showed surprise and appreciation. Phoebe immediately knew that although she didn't have much information, she was talking about what would really make the conversation going.

At this time, the man on the left slapped his palm a little excitedly and said, "Yes, that's right, the name "on" alone has several explanations, good, I didn't expect you to even know this, it was your family who sued you?"

Barbara frowned slightly and glanced at the other party, and the man on the right waved his hand to Barbara again and again: "Don't get me wrong, he didn't mean it, in fact, few people can understand the relationship between TV dramas and diplomacy and political activities." Aren't you both from families of diplomats...... Well, I mean......"

Phoebe reached out in front of Barbara for a moment, and she found that the other party was obviously in a weak position relative to steel, so it was natural to try to master the rhythm now, rather than dwell on some details. After all, the other party's information collection network is much larger than his own, and he also took out the painting that he once released to completely eliminate the "magic painting virus", which shows that the other party must have some secrets of his own, which is much more threatening than others knowing that she and Barbara are orphans adopted by the family of American diplomats.

So Phoebe pointed to the paper on the table and said, "Let's talk about this first, if you want the technology for this painting, then I'm sorry, Langley's side won't agree." ”

Phoebe didn't tell the truth, but the other party didn't know what Langley knew.

The two of them saw that Fei Bi was very defensive, and the man on the right smiled and said, "Sure enough, you are a student, and you made a prank and even shook many dǐng-level companies at that time, and many people wanted to find you." ”

Phoebe diǎn diǎn head said, "Well, so I cooperated with the government." ”

The man on the left said, "Well, smart, at least much smarter than those who call themselves Internet knights, hiding under the wing of the government, you can do more than those who hide in the mouse hole and type on the keyboard." ”

Barbara pouted slightly, aren't you two also from typing keyboards.

Phoebe shook her head slightly and said, "I don't question anyone's chosen path, even if this person never had the opportunity to choose." ”

The two of them glanced at each other, and then the man on the right said: "Okay, after you refused to exchange information in the real room last time, we actually didn't plan to bother again, but a few days ago, did you send a full-angle manipulator to NASA, we don't know what you call that thing." Can the above technology be shared and exchanged with one of our robotics companies? We promise that we will not reverse engineer your technology, we only need you to provide the finished product and the relevant control interface. ”

Phoebe glanced at Barbara, who shrugged her shoulders and said she didn't know what the other party was talking about, so the two looked at each other together.

The man on the left suddenly folded his arms a little proudly and smiled: "Since you are here, you should have heard of Boston Dynamics, and we are also interested in becoming a contractor for the Department of Defense." ”

Barbara suddenly realized, and Phoebe Diǎn Diǎn Diǎn head said, "So that's the case." She muttered again, "Are you interested in testing a new energy source on your walking vehicle, and the engine that works with this new energy source?"

The two of them were suddenly a little stunned, but they didn't expect that Titan actually has a new energy project, if the new energy that Phoebe said is really good, then their main company seems to be able to cooperate with Titan.

And after Phoebe felt the other party's affection, she immediately understood that the world's largest search engine provider would soon become her ally. In this way, she can also let Girls' Generation get more benefits from the other party, after all, the other party just bought the water pipe, didn't it......
