Chapter 699: Borrowing the Topic to Play

"Oh, foreign forces, can you tell me who they are and why they are targeting me?" Lu Li asked, pretending to be surprised. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Just when Brad was about to speak, a middle-aged white man in his fifties suddenly took a step forward and took the initiative to introduce himself: "Hello, Mr. Lu, my name is Pierce, this is my partner George, we both work in the FBI's counterintelligence department, and it would be better for me to explain it to you personally." ā€

"Counter-espionage?" Lu Li keenly grasped the key part.

You must know that the FBI's counterintelligence agency is not an ordinary commercial espionage, but a state spy.

Especially during the Cold War, it dominated almost all counter-espionage activities on the US mainland against the KGB, the intelligence organization of the former Soviet Union.

Although the achievements are really not flattering, many government departments have been infiltrated into a sieve by the other side, and some very few guys have even been incubated for thirty or forty years, until they were dug up after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

But in any case, the FBI is also experienced in counterintelligence work, and their involvement means that it is likely to involve sensitive information such as military and political affairs.

Pierce nodded with a serious expression: "Yes, according to the exact information we have received, the project codenamed "Black Hole" by the Ministry of Defense may have been seriously leaked, and many intelligence organizations have learned that you and your company have the most critical parts of it, so they will try to steal the relevant technology by various means......"

"Wait!"

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Li rudely interrupted the other party's words and asked unceremoniously: "Since you mentioned leaking secrets, then can I ask, how can such military secrets be leaked? Who leaked them? Could it be that the military's secrecy procedures are all decorations?"

"Uh--I'm very sorry, Mr. Lu, you have to understand that in today's increasingly developed network communications, no country in the world can achieve complete secrecy, not to mention that the newly established materials company is also going to enter the civilian field, so it is only a matter of time before it is known to the outside world. ā€

Pierce obviously felt Lu Li's unfriendly attitude, and instantly pushed the responsibility cleanly.

Of course, it can't be regarded as shirking responsibility, after all, it is the Department of Defense that leaked the secret, and the FBI is only responsible for dealing with the aftermath, and it is not guilty of taking the blame for the other party.

However, Lu Li, who was planning to use the topic to play, naturally couldn't easily let go of the handle sent to the door for nothing, and bluntly issued a threat.

"I don't care how beautiful the excuses I use, and I don't care whose responsibility it is, it's always the U.S. government's problem, and it's you who seem to me to be in danger.

If, within 24 hours, you don't give me a satisfactory explanation, then I don't mind taking this matter to the media, and by the way, taking all the relevant government departments to court, so that the world can see how the US government treats a legitimate businessman who provides advanced technology.

I will hire the most luxurious team of lawyers at any cost, fight a lawsuit with the FBI or the Department of Defense for three or five years, and pull all the self-righteous bigwigs into the water one by one.

Oh, I almost forgot, there was still an element of compulsion to this deal.

Think of the interesting ripple effects that would ensue in the United States, which has always boasted of freedom and democracy, if a scandal broke out that forced legitimate businessmen to hand over their technology for military use?"

As the last word blurted out, beads of sweat immediately broke out in Pierce and George's heads, and they tried to open their mouths several times to say something, but in the end they wisely closed their mouths.

Because they all knew very well that what Lu Li said just now was not just a verbal threat, but the success rate of actual operation was quite high.

You know, in the United States, the rich and the poor are two completely different species.

The former can not only use the power of the media to speak out loud, accuse the government of violating their rights, and demand huge compensation, but also pull politicians down from high positions and completely ruin their political future.

As for the latter, it is completely ignored from beginning to end. Because they don't have money, they can't afford to hire a good lawyer, let alone get the media to speak for them.

Take the lead poisoning incident in Flint, which shocked the whole United States some time ago, for two years, millions of residents in the city have been drinking heavily polluted tap water, and many people have even developed a series of symptoms such as rashes, hair loss, and anemia in children.

Guess what happens to the municipal officials who claim to be democratically elected?

Not only did they hide the truth, but they ignored a large number of complaints and repeatedly assured that the tap water was safe and would not cause any harm to the human body.

What's even more interesting is that after the incident was exposed, the U.S. government only came up with less than $40 million as compensation, which was not as much as the compensation received by a female sports reporter for being secretly photographed nude.

And the mayor, who concealed the truth, was not affected in any way, but also ran for governor.

In fact, in the United States, there are many tragedies caused by government departments covering up the truth, and only a very small number of them have been exposed, without exception, in areas where the poor gather.

Looking at the ugly faces of the two FBI agents, Lu Li once again felt the superiority of "capitalism" and "democracy" over the rich, and raised his arm to make a gesture of please.

"Gentlemen, please go back, and be sure to convey what you just said to your superiors as they were. Remember, I'm not kidding. ā€

Pierce and George glanced at each other, sighed helplessly, and immediately turned to leave the villa, driving a black SUV and disappearing at the end of the road.

As soon as they left, Brad couldn't wait to ask, "Boss, are you really planning to fight a protracted lawsuit with the U.S. government?"

"Hahahaha! How could it be! I'm not an idiot! I wouldn't do something like this that offended a lot of people. Lu Li laughed and shook his head, and sat down on the sofa.

"But ......," Jonathan asked, puzzled.

"Don't worry, it's just a negotiation tool to maximize profits. I believe that the U.S. government will definitely come up with some corresponding compensation after hearing those threats, isn't it?" Lu Li explained playfully.

"I see! you're using the topic to play!" Brad said, with a look of abrupt realization.

"That's right! I'm going to use this to make those guys who snoop on my secrets understand that if they dare to violate my bottom line again, then I don't mind giving them some color, and then leave North America directly to develop in other countries. ā€

With that, Lu Li raised his glass and drank all the juice in one go.

Since forming an alliance with Jamie Dimon, he has finally gained an in-depth understanding of the entire operating system of the United States.

At the same time, I realized that the U.S. government is not as powerful as it seems, especially when it comes to attacking from within, it is as fragile as a piece of paper......
