Chapter 184: McCarthy
has another life experience to be edified, and after two years of experience, although Zhou Nan is still young, he has a maturity and calmness that does not belong to this age.
Although he was a little annoyed that the action of the squad had alarmed the FBI, he was not panicked at all.
And if Hoover wanted to guess whether Zhou Nan played a role in this by observing him, he would definitely be disappointed.
Because now Zhou Nan is not only a 26-year-old young man, but also a 95-year-old life experience and mentality.
Hoover said with a smile: "I mentioned this matter directly to Mr. Zhou today, not because I wanted to put forward any conditions with Mr. Zhou, but simply wanted to cooperate with Mr. Zhou." ”
Without waiting for Zhou Nan to refuse, he said again: "Actually, you don't have to say that you have nothing to do with Nanhua, because everyone knows that your words are more effective in Nanhua than Premier Zhicheng Pan." ”
Zhou Nan smiled slightly and asked: "It depends on what, as we all know, I have an accurate vision in the macro aspect, but I have a natural defect in the implementation of specific work." ”
Seeing that Zhou Nan did not directly refuse, Hoover laughed and led Zhou Nan to walk slowly along the platform on the roof. "Over the past year or so, Nanhua has been working to eliminate the impact of the red wave on the country. But so far, it seems that the effect is not very good. According to our survey, among the 1.1 million Chinese who immigrated to South China last year, at least 100 families had Red Party backgrounds. Personally, I believe that there should be great prospects for cooperation in this area. ”
Zhou Nan hesitated for a moment, and deliberately pretended to be puzzled and asked: "As far as I know, this work should be the responsibility of the CIA, and when is the FBI also paying attention to this aspect?" ”
Hoover sneered: "Counting on those stiff-headed GIs, the Red Party is standing in front of them, and they can't tell the difference." ”
Of course, Zhou Nan didn't believe that he could accurately grasp the situation of Nanhua immigrants, and the so-called 100 families were just his guesses.
Moreover, his actions have crossed the line, because the FBI does not actually have enforcement powers abroad.
However, he also knows very well that the current CIA is a kind of thing, and the current director of the CIA, Major General Hillencott, is a pure military man who has no intelligence talent at all.
It can be said that the current CIA is a model of not doing things with a salary, and even if it does, it is doing something that does not know what to do.
For example, the development of the atomic bomb in the Soviet Union, such an important matter, they did not get any information at all.
It was only after the Soviet Union successfully tested the bomb next year that the Americans exclaimed in surprise: "The United States is not the only one with the atomic bomb." ”
At that time, Truman almost died of anger and almost removed all the upper echelons of the CIA.
Moreover, the CIA was completely suppressed by the FBI in its early days, and it was not until the seventies, after the death of Hoover, that the CIA truly became a world-class intelligence organization.
Of course, Zhou Nan expects Hoover to suppress as hard as possible, and the FBI's actions outside the country have natural shortcomings.
It can be said that even if they are more professional than the CIA, they are unlikely to get the full support of the US government because of some restrictions on their law enforcement powers.
Hoover's desire to seize power is in the interests of South China.
Moreover, in South China, Americans, like those of Chinese Americans operating in the United States, also have inherent deficiencies.
It is not a race, and no matter how it is hidden, it cannot be hidden in the people.
Therefore, Zhou Nan is not afraid of how much the FBI can really set off in South China.
But of course, Zhou Nan can't listen to what he says, first of all, it depends on whether the chips given by the other party are enough.
It is completely impossible for him to deter Zhou Nan just by using an action that has not yet been carried out.
Standing on the top of the seventieth floor of the boulder, Zhou Nan looked at the Central Park in the north for a long time before turning around and saying, "Mr. Hoover, the premise of cooperation is that we both have common interests, and I have never been willing to divide camps based on ideology. Because I am more concerned about whether a country can bring a richer life and a more stable living environment to ordinary people. Therefore, I always have an inexplicable sense of comical about the opposition between the two camps in the current world. ”
"So you are an alternative in world politics, and you understand the nature of power better than all the politicians now." Hoover complimented Zhou Nan for a moment, and then changed his tone and said: "In fact, the Red Party pays more attention to the right and wrong of ideology, so you can never be accepted into the same camp by them, which is also the basis of our cooperation." ”
Zhou Nan nodded and said with a smile: "But this kind of cooperation, I only see that Nanhua needs to pay some convenience to the FBI, but I don't see what the FBI can do to help Nanhua." ”
Hoover laughed: "Actually, the FBI can help you do more......"
His pretend was teased by nature, and a cold wind wrapped in snowflakes rushed into his gaping mouth, causing him to cough violently.
He almost coughed up tears in his eyes, and finally managed to recover his strength, but his face was still red.
He raised his hand to stop the assistant's steps to help him, calmed down for a moment, and then said slowly: "I don't know why you are dealing with McCarthy, but I do have some evidence in my hand that he broke the law and can easily send him to prison." I can even do it without any commitment from you. ”
Zhou Nan's heart skipped a beat, but he still smiled indifferently and said, "Friends pay attention to helping each other, isn't it?" I will carefully consider Mr. Hoover's suggestion and convey this opinion to the South China government. Perhaps, Nanhua will also have a strong interest in cooperating with the FBI. ”
Although Zhou Nan did not have any commitments, he had already taken Hoover's suggestion, and now he was just waiting for his action.
If he can really send McCarthy to prison, then Zhou Nan will definitely provide some convenience for the FBI's operation in South China.
Because McCarthy is a person who is more destructive than Kishi's Nobu knot.
He is known as the American Hitler, and his ultra-rightist ideas have influenced American foreign policy for decades.
All Chinese people are aware of the cultural changes of the sixties and seventies, but this is definitely not the behavior of the Chinese family, but the behavior of the whole world.
For example, in the United States, in the fifties, there was such a period, in which the number of persecuted people was unknown.
Of course, the main targets of persecution are the American Republic and Chinese Americans.
Within the United States, thousands of Chinese and Asians are suspected of being spies. Not only were they illegally arraigned, they were not allowed to send money to their relatives in China, and they were even forbidden to speak openly about their hometowns.
Many others have been imprisoned, expelled or even assassinated for being accused of sympathizing with the Red Party.
Qian Lao, a well-known physicist working in the United States, was also arraigned by the FBI for being accused of participating in the activities of the Communist Party of the United States during the war.
Since then, Mr. Qian has repeatedly discovered that his personal correspondence has been torn down, his home phone has been tapped, and his national security permit has been revoked.
This indicates that he can no longer engage in jet propulsion research or even stay in the laboratory.
Until he left the United States in 1955, Qian Lao was under the restrictions of the USCIS and the FBI surveillance.
Due to the restrictions imposed by the U.S. government, when Qian Lao returned to China, not only did he not bring back any research materials, but he also did not bring back some personal belongings.
And not just ethnic Chinese, any American sympathetic to the Red Party was also persecuted. Even in political class, when it comes to communism, the political teacher has to scold the Soviet Union a few words before he can give a lecture, otherwise he will be investigated.
There were many politicians who were persecuted by him, and later he set his sights on all the celebrities.
Oppenheimer, Albert Einstein, were all investigated by him. Including Chaplin's inability to return to the United States in his later years, and his seclusion in Switzerland was because of his persecution.
And although he died early because of his many evils, his ideas have influenced an entire generation.
It was not until the 70s, when China and the Soviet Union became hostile, and the United States tried to win over China, that this wave of anti-talk slowly subsided.
And McCarthyism has also become the imprint of an era, and it has always deeply influenced Americans' perception of the Chinese.
Since Zhou Nan knew history, of course he would not let this person become a sharp blade against the Chinese in the future.
Even without McCarthy, there will be people who think like him. But there will never be such a mad dog politician who not only does not care about the lives of others, but also does not care about his own.
Many of his actions are simply incomprehensible, completely like a madman, and it is difficult to meet a person like him who does not care about the consequences at all, but only cares about his own pleasure.
Therefore, even if there are other anti-talk extremists, they can't be as crazy as him.
Zhou Nan didn't expect to meet Hoover today and offer to help him solve this trouble, which was a surprise for him.
After Hoover left, Stolko and Audrey were released to the rooftop.
"That was Hoover just now, I was disobedient since I was a child, and my mother threatened me to let Hoover take me away, and then I was very scared. But now it seems that he is not so terrible, and a little kind! ”
Zhou Nan smiled and shook his head, Audrey knew that Zhou Nan and Stolko still had something to say, so she pulled Taylor and said: "Elizabeth, it's hard to get a panoramic view of New York from the top of the boulder, you can help me be a tour guide and introduce the surrounding scenery." ”
"It's my first time here, but I know New York better than you do." Taylor happily accepts Audrey's suggestion and introduces her to some of the landmarks around her.
Zhou Nan looked at the somewhat serious faces of Etinny and Stolko, and said with a smile: "We don't have any actions that have attracted the attention of the FBI, so his visit today is not all a bad thing." ”
Having said that, Zhou Nan knew very well that allowing the FBI's power to enter South China now would inevitably upset the balance that had been established there with great difficulty.
How to solve this problem, but it takes a lot of energy!
