Chapter 30 Reactive Response (3) A Turning Point
Liang Qing took the call into the rapid response center:
"Yifan, now that all the leaders are listening, do you have any latest news there?"
"Yes, hello chiefs, I'm Yifan, the head of the Information Processing Department, and I will now report to you the latest information we have gathered so far, in the past two or three hours, the situation there has changed substantially, but this change may help us."
There was silence in the room, everyone was listening quietly, and Yifan continued after a while:
"In the early hours of this morning local time, a portal called 'Voice of Arabia' in Saudi Arabia took the lead in disclosing a message, saying that there was reliable information confirming that a bulk carrier was attacked by a group of unidentified militants in the open sea near Israel, and the attack caused casualties. A more detailed follow-up report was issued on the Muslim Window website, in which they claimed that a well-informed source had reported that at least five people were killed and one wounded, and that one hostage had been taken hostage. At the end of the news, Muslim Window pointed out that the planning of the attack on the high seas was initiated by Mike Minus, the head of the CIA station in the Middle East, and the disclosure of this information instantly caused a huge chain reaction, and soon a large number of media websites intervened to follow up on the incident, just now, a coastal country issued a statement that they received a request for help from a Panamanian-flagged bulk carrier a few hours ago, saying that it was attacked by armed men and asked for assistance, and they have sent law enforcement ships to rescue it, and the shipwrecked ship is now being brought back to the port, and now there are many media and radio stationsThe reporter of the TV station rushed to the local Mi embassy or Mi military base to verify the authenticity of this news, because judging from the way of the attack disclosed, everyone almost unanimously agreed that this was a standard Mi Marine Corps raid, these are the latest news we have collected so far, I believe it will not be long before more information will be released on the Internet, and my report is over. ”
After Yifan's introduction, none of the people in the room seemed to react, and there was a brief cold scene in the conference room.
"They~, I mean these media reporters, where did they get this information?"
Meng Tong seemed to unconsciously say his doubts, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Liang Qing again, and the rapid dissemination of information in this new media, as well as the way Liang Qing and others used this way to quickly collect and screen useful information, the department chiefs in the room, who had been more than half a hundred years old and were accustomed to working in the traditional way, expressed their incomprehension.
"Let me explain a little~"
Yifan's voice came from the microphone.
"Under normal circumstances, the information disseminated on the Internet comes from many channels, and everyone may be the publisher of the news, which is true and false, but under normal circumstances, it is still an orderly dissemination, but if there is a certain thing in a short period of time explosively transmitted, and this transmission has obvious orientation, this is likely to be a state created under human control, the purpose of which is many, but the most important purpose is to attract the attention of relevant people to change the progress of the situation as much as possible, which is part of the manifestation of cyber warfare. ”
Liang Qing continued with Yifan's words:
"The news says that there is a wounded, this wounded person is likely to be a Northern Korean agent, he will definitely report to his boss after the attack, contact us before the judgment, the Northern Korean agents and the intelligence personnel of the United States have been in contact with the port of the United States, the attack on the cargo ship by the United States should be a continuation of the operation in the port, the attack on the cargo ship is to search for something important, and this thing is extremely important to the Northern Koreans, the United States people, with the persistence of the Northern Koreans, they will not be willing to give up, will use the clues in their hands to preemptively disseminate this news to the media, which will seize the opportunity of public opinion. ”
"From the perspective of the United States, attacking the commercial cargo ships of other countries on the high seas is an absolute violation of international conventions, the attack must have been carried out in a state of top secret, there are very few insiders, in the face of the sudden rush to the door of the media reporters, in the face of many questions, the United States in the local foreign agencies and relevant military departments will have a short period of chaos, even if these people deny that it is related to this matter, but secretly will be angry with the planner who formulated the operation, the United States official is very disgusted with this feeling of being deceived, If the news on the Internet is true, the hostage who was taken away is likely to be Feng Shaolan, and the cargo ship is about to be taken back to a nearby port for investigation, which can provide a relatively accurate position judgment for our next move. Therefore, we must seize this blank period and make corresponding arrangements. ”
"I agree with Comrade Liang Qing's analysis, although I still don't have a good understanding of the mode of thinking under this new form, but obviously we must adapt to work in this state of rapid transformation as soon as possible, Comrade Liang Qing, do you have any further ideas."
Although he didn't know much about the Internet, Meng Tong was already convinced of the adaptability and intelligence gathering ability shown by the rapid response center led by Liang Qing in this state of informatization, and the heads of other departments also nodded in agreement, because so far, the staff of their departments have not been able to give a relatively complete analysis report on this sudden situation.
Liang Qing saw her most encouragement and trust in the eyes of everyone, but she still unconsciously looked at the old man sitting upright on the main seat, and the old man smiled slightly:
"Comrade Liang Qing, don't have any worries, I think you should be able to feel it, Director Meng has complete trust in you, you can boldly put forward any ideas, let me, an old man, also see the combat mode under the new form, you can boldly say it."
The old man's encouragement made Liang Qing let go of his burden.
"Well, due to the urgency of the situation, I will say what I think, if there is anything wrong in the process, please put forward and correct it at any time."
"No problem."
"First of all, let's gather our scattered team members as soon as possible, aren't you still online?"
"I've been online and listening, please tell me what I have planned."
There was no response from the microphone.
