Saigon United Industrial Company is located at No. 28, Tuanjie Avenue, Pingdong Industrial Village, covering an area of more than 170 acres.

The layout of the factory is the same as that of the surrounding enterprises, with high walls, a magnificent façade, a square, and then a new 5-storey office building. The 9 rows of steel structure workshops and warehouses behind the office building are neat and tidy. A variety of flowers and trees are planted between each row, and the greenery is very good.

On the innermost side is a row of four-storey buildings, in the style of a staff dormitory in an industrial village, separated by a wall from the Gongtou TV station facing north and facing Endeavor Avenue. On the left of the factory is the telegraph office and telephone company of the industrial village, and on the right is the transshipment warehouse of the "Xingyue Automobile Transport Company".

Regardless of the area or location, it is second to none in the entire industrial village.

However, this Vietnam-Hong Kong joint venture company, which was incorporated the year before last and only put into use this year, with cars coming in and out, and seemingly very profitable, has never openly recruited employees, and the people who work in it rarely deal with outsiders.

However, the industrial village originally implemented closed management, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and the fence was one after another, not only the industrial village security team, but also the industrial village police independent from the security team, as well as the company's own security. It's so chaotic outside, and people are used to not being able to move around to ensure safety.

Besides, there are so many export and domestic orders, it's too late to go to work and make money, except for those outside who want to take advantage of the recruitment opportunity to come in and work, who cares about what the hell is going on with this new company.

In fact, what kind of business this company is mainly engaged in, what the treatment of employees is, and whether they are tired from going to work or not, not only ordinary people who work and live in the industrial village do not know, but even the vast majority of security guards and police officers do not know anything.

In a closed-management industrial village, there is a company that is also closed-management. It's normal. Each has its own responsibilities, and no one bothered to inquire about the well water.

Jiang Wenshui, the former founder and vice chairman of the Chinese Youth Association and the current secretary-general of the "Vietnamese Chinese Literature and Art Research Association", is very satisfied with this new working environment, because from now on, he can confidently tell his parents and girlfriend where he works, and he will no longer be mistaken for idleness and lack of business as before.

I went to the United States for two years to study. Although he didn't get any degree, he was also a "returnee", at least he could speak English.

In a country where he can become a division commander in his twenties and deputy chief of the general staff of the Joint Staff and commander of the Air Force at the age of 33, it is really inconspicuous for him to become the deputy general manager of a company at the age of 26.

As usual, he drove to the office early.

The security guard did not give the green light because he was the deputy general manager, stopped to show his ID, and a security guard opened the car door. A security guard opened the suitcase, and a security guard reached under the car with a device equipped with a mirror to check the chassis and make sure there were no problems before returning the documents and letting them go.

Security is tight, and that's just the first step.

After parking the car and walking into the building, the lobby security not only checked the documents but also searched the body. The pistols were stuffed into plastic bags and kept by them. The same goes for briefcases, which can only be retrieved when you walk on a numbered shelf.

Pass through the second security check. I took the elevator to the second floor and just pushed open the office door. A twenty-one or twelve-year-old female colleague chased after her with a folder in her hand and reported like a machine gun: "Mr. Jiang, there is a regular meeting in Area G at 8 o'clock." Mr. Qian is talking to Mr. Zhang, and I can't take a break from it, so I entrust you to participate. ”

"Mr. Zhang is back?"

"I came back from work yesterday and brought two friends with me."

The "Vietnamese Chinese Literature and Art Research Association" is becoming more and more diverse. One-third of the 46 directors are from Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines and Hong Kong, and the girl immigrated to Vietnam from the Philippines with her father.

The Mr. Zhang she mentioned must be Mr. Zhang Muxiang, an Indonesian Chinese financier who is in charge of Indonesian, Singaporean and Malay affairs, Jiang Wenshui nodded slightly, and closed the door: "It's almost 8 o'clock." I'll go first. ”

The whole factory is divided into A, B, C, D, E, F, G six office areas, Area A is this office building, Qian Xinlin, Gu Changgeng, Zhang Yinggui and General Huang Yasheng who just returned from France last year, as well as the secretariat that provides services for them, and the comprehensive office that provides logistics services for the whole company works in the building.

Other districts in the back of the steel structure workshop, each district depending on the size of the institution, how many personnel occupy one or two, the plant is equipped with the production of Vung Tau Industrial Village "water air conditioning", deep wells to pump up the cool groundwater, through the ground cabinet machine heat sink and fan to reduce the temperature, and continuous circulation, so that people can not feel even a little heat.

Area B is the Population Development Research Center, which is responsible for immigration planning and encouraging Chinese to have children. He is in charge of more than 20 foundations, fraternities, associations and clan associations with a wide range of names, and has the largest budget of any secondary institution.

Area C is the Rural Economic Development Research Center, which is fully responsible for the agricultural development of Parrot Point, Kampong Son, Zhensha and 13 Nong resettlement villages in the south. The Bak Lieu Agricultural Technical School, the Saigon Agricultural Technology Research Institute, and the Vung Tau Agricultural Machinery Research Institute are all subordinate institutions, and there are three rural economic task forces composed of agricultural experts.

Area D is the propaganda center, which is equivalent to the propaganda department of Vietnam G, which is not only responsible for guiding public opinion, but also has its own radio station, newspaper and magazine office.

Area E is a vocational training research center, similar to a "party-school", specializing in training and inspecting Chinese cadres, but only personnel planning, compilation of "brainwashing" teaching materials, cadre archiving and other work are carried out here, and specific training is generally placed outside, and carried out in the name of youth associations, alumni associations or tourist groups.

Zone F is a financial center formed by the merger of the Xidi Chinese Charity Foundation, Xidi Chinese Asset Management Company, Hoi An Chinese Charity Management Foundation and Hoi An Chinese Asset Management Company. He is in charge of all the gang property left behind by the Five Gangs Association, as well as the incense money from all the Chinese temples in South Vietnam. While promoting the "private-owned-ownership" of the gang's property, he is responsible for planning, building and repairing the temples of the gang.

It is worth mentioning that for most Chinese who are adrift, burning incense and worshiping Buddha is not only superstition, but also a way to satisfy their own psychological belonging. Only with a temple can there be a sense of belonging, cohesion, and no loneliness. in order to continue the tradition.

Therefore, many people are usually very frugal, but they are very generous when they go to the temple to worship the Buddha and pay for incense.

Every Spring Festival, the income of each temple is very considerable.

The five gangs of property have been accumulated little by little, and it can be said that without so many temples, there would not be so many Chinese schools now.

Now that people have money, the incense is more prosperous. Last year, the total amount of incense money from all the temples on the embankment reached an astonishing 130 million piast, and the average Chinese on each embankment donated nearly 200.

It is precisely because of these sources of income, coupled with the income from overseas investment, that the "Yuehua Literature and Art Research Association" does not have to continue to extend its hand to Boss Li, and can not only meet the funds needed for the operation of various secondary institutions, but also have a surplus, and even open a bank of its own.

Area G, which is separated by a wall from the industrial investment television station, is the most mysterious, with a barbed wire fence separating itself from the rest of the district. Only a small door remained.

After passing through another security check, Jiang Wenshui walked into the new headquarters of the intelligence system of the "Vietnamese Chinese Literature and Art Research Association."

The G-1 workshop was responsible for the internal intelligence of South Vietnam, with two workshop directors and dozens of spy managers called 'case leaders' under the director, one of whom was Kuai Tai Long, who participated in the "Left Hook Fist Operation".

They are responsible for recruiting, training, dispatching, and managing spies to ensure the security of the entire intelligence network. There is no horizontal connection between them, the 'case leaders', and they are only accountable to the workshop director.

There are more than thirty intelligence analysts under the deputy director of the workshop. It is responsible for analyzing and verifying the information transferred by the director, and there is no horizontal contact with the 'case leader'.

The G-2 workshop is responsible for North Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, the G-3 workshop is responsible for the United States, and the G-4 workshop is responsible for Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea, but mainly Indonesia, Singapore and Hong Kong.

The second row of steel structure workshops is also divided into four areas, and the G-5 workshop is the office of the "Big Three" of Gui Qingshan, Ben Renchao and Yang Gong.

The owner has a big office. Outside the large office is the secretary's small office, and opposite the office is a conference room with tempered glass partitions and blinded curtains. Area G-6 is the Confidential Division, a large warehouse with more than a dozen people responsible for preserving and managing the mountains of secret files.

Area G-7 is the Telecommunications Office. More than 40 staff members, dozens of radio stations, and nearly 100 telephone lines ensure that the headquarters is in contact with the outside world. In order to prevent people from seeing that this place is not ordinary, the radio antennas are all set up in the backyard of the Gongtou TV station separated by a wall, and the so-called Gongtou TV station does not transmit TV signals at all.

Sector G-8 is the Operations Division, which is responsible for tracking, surveillance, arrest and interrogation, but here there is a 12-man detachment on standby, while several other units are stationed at the embankment police station under the cover of police officers.

Due to the inconvenient transportation, there are no prison cells.

Arrested persons are generally detained at police stations, industrial village security units, military justice units of the 5th Infantry Division, or village militia self-defense units placed in villages, and interrogated in the nearest place of detention.

Jiang Wenshui doesn't like it here, he feels that it is gloomy, in fact, the office environment is no different from Area B and Area C, but the current law does not apply here.

People who fell into the hands of the G-8 and were imprisoned in the "black cell", do not expect any humanitarian treatment from the Operations Department, all kinds of torture emerge in an endless stream, and the entire "scum hole" and "white mansion", from the establishment of the intelligence department to the present, I don't know how many suspects who have fallen into their hands have "evaporated from the world".

In addition to these headquarters, Area G also has a dedicated listening center in the industrial park, with workstations in major cities and industrial villages.

With the establishment of the industrial village police station in each industrial village, which is responsible for maintaining daily law and order, the audit and supervision department of each branch of the industrial investment company has also been divided into three. Those responsible for combating corruption and prosecuting criminal offences were assigned to the Public Prosecutor's Office, while those who gathered intelligence and cracked down on the SAUC underground were assigned to work stations under the cover of the police.

The original audit and supervision department only had the function of auditing and supervising the financial and investment projects of the company's departments.

may be too affected by the military command, Gui Qingshan has always wanted to insert an inside line in the fourth tactical area.

Wu Dinh Yao continued to insert his eyes and ears into the national army, causing the national and military officers and men to complain, and the lessons of the past were there, and Chen Runwei did not want to move a stone to shoot himself in the foot. Moreover, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and not knowing Nguyen Chi Nhin now does not mean that he will not know in the future. Chen Runwei was uncompromising on this issue, and flatly refused on the grounds that the headquarters already had political warfare, military justice, and intelligence departments, which made Gui Qingshan very disappointed.

Walking into the conference room, the four workshop directors who participated in the regular meeting had already arrived. As soon as Jiang Wenshui sat down at the bottom, Gui Qingshan, Ben Renchao and Yang Gong walked in expressionlessly.

"Ah Shui, what's wrong with old money?"

"Mr. Qian is talking to Mr. Zhang, and he really can't pull away."

"Oh, let's get started."

Jing Zhenlun, director of the G-1 workshop, opened the folder and reported succinctly: "As of the early hours of this morning, the various units of the Nationalist Army and the Hmong special battalion participating in the 'Right Hook Operation' have still not been able to arrest Nguyen Chi Thanh and Nguyen Van Linh. Despite our preparations, our large-scale and large-scale dragnet raids have caused us serious losses. At least 12 of our lines have been broken, and more than 30 people on the line have not been heard from and their lives are uncertain. ”

When the national army finally seized an opportunity, it would definitely rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one.

Gui Qingshan had already made psychological preparations for "the fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond", and was ready to use this opportunity to continue to infiltrate the Southern Liberation Organization, holding his chin and saying: "Contact 'Mango', let 'Mango' go to see if there are any of our people among those captives, if the identity has been exposed, fish out the person, if the identity is not exposed, follow the old method." ”

As the leader of the next generation of "research associations" focused on training, Jiang Wenshui has the right to know some details.

Considering that he would have to report to Mr. Qian later, he asked in a low voice, "Who is Mango?" ”

"The new code name of the Ping team, several of them have climbed the ranks and become Richardson's 'case leaders', with very high authority, a lot of resources at their disposal, and even salaries are on par with American agents. Fearing that they would retaliate, the Yankees even promised to work for another three years and arrange for them to immigrate to the United States after three years. ”

"Mr. Gui, they won't really ...... Really ......"

"No, it won't."

Gui Qingshan waved his hand and said confidently: "They are very reliable, and they all have a blood feud with North Vietnam. As for the conditions offered by the Yankees, they are simply a joke. If you ask for money, we give more; If you want to immigrate, we can arrange it as well. ”

"I'll rest assured, I'm sorry, please continue."

Director G-2 took over the conversation and said slowly: "The Nationalist Army has not searched for Nguyen Chi Thanh and Nguyen Van Linh, and the Hanoi side does not know the whereabouts of the two. If the information is correct, Hanoi has not been able to contact them again since the air strikes. The political-political situation has exploded, and news has been blocked from the outside world, and whoever dares to discuss the affairs of the Southern Bureau will be punished as anti-revolutionary. ”

Ben Chaoren muttered: "It doesn't matter if the two fish slipped through the net, what matters is what Hanoi's reaction will be next." ”

"Although our internal line has penetrated into key departments, it is still difficult to find out the high-level movements, but it can be confirmed that mobilization has begun within the KPA. Judging from the number of the mobilized troops, the number of troops that will go south next will not be less than 40,000. Counting the Vietminh elements who withdrew to the north in 1954, the total number could have exceeded 60,000. (To be continued.) )
