492 The more you know, the more trouble you have

As soon as Cao Zhiqiang said this, Uncle Lin immediately frowned.

But soon, Uncle Lin smiled: "In other words, you don't know what the other party sent?" ”

"That's not either." Cao Zhiqiang, who had been prepared, replied.

"I asked him how the things were going and when they would be delivered.

He said at the time that I could rest assured, there should be everything, and there is a good product that has not been mentioned before, but we will never refuse, I originally wanted to mention it next time, but this time the opportunity is rare, and I will send it first, and then collect the money.

Ah, yes! I almost forgot the most important thing. ”

Cao Zhiqiang slapped his face: "The other party also said, what should I do after I go back, I must prepare the money, saying that the goods delivered this time are a bit special, a total of two billion US dollars, no counteroffer."

The old rule is that the next time I go to Japan, I must bring money with me, and someone will naturally meet me and arrange how I will pay the money. ”

Uncle Lin nodded: "People give goods, and you should give money, but do you still want to be responsible?" Can someone else do it? ”

After a pause, Uncle Lin said: "Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this time the matter is really a bit big, and I'm afraid the risks contained in it are not small." You've never been trained to do so, and if you continue, it may affect your safety.

While we would love to continue this line, we can't ignore your personal safety.

So, do you have any code with them? If so, can you tell me the connector code, and someone else will connect with them, so you can get out. ”

"Coincidentally, I did say this." Cao Zhiqiang deliberately smiled bitterly, "Actually, after I connected with that person at the beach last night, I was also a little scared, so I asked him if he could change to other more professional personnel to do it, I don't want to get involved in this matter anymore."

But the other party said that he didn't count it, and the above explained that he only traded with you, only through you, and if he was replaced, all follow-up transactions would be stopped. ”

"Why is that?" Uncle Lin frowned and asked, "Why don't you recognize you?" ”

"That's what I asked at the time." Cao Zhiqiang spread his hands, "But the other party said that he didn't know why, he only knew that the above explained so, saying that as long as they left me to pull the strings, they would rather not have money, and all subsequent transactions would be invalid."

Then I asked, "What do you mean?" Why do you have to let someone who doesn't understand anything get involved?

The other party said, don't ask, just do it, if it's irrelevant, or I'm gone, then everything will be null and void.

Anyway, what he meant by that was that all transactions must go through me, and I can ask for intermediary fees, or not, but no matter whether I want intermediary fees or not, all the process of transactions must be contacted through my one-line contact, and they don't recognize anyone else.

He also told me, let me tell you and other leaders that they have mastered cutting-edge technology and products, and this is definitely not the last transaction.

Whether it is the cutting-edge technology of Europe and the United States, or the cutting-edge technology of the Soviet Union, they can get it, and they can trade with us at the best price.

However, I must protect myself, never be exposed, let alone have an accident.

As soon as something happens to me or is exposed, they cut off all contact, and this trading line is never thought about again.

I asked, "If I have to do it, do I have any relatives who work with you?"

He told me that he didn't know, that he was just a worker, but he told me not to think about it so much, that there are many like me all over the world.

Still, he told me about his speculation.

He said that for this kind of secret organization, it is to carefully look for an agent first, once the agent is selected, everything is a one-line one-person contact, if there is a problem with this agent, then this line will be decisively cut off, and there will be no contact again.

In this case, because there is only one one-sided intermediary agent, there is basically no clue to dig into, and can only be an intermediary.

Once this intermediary has an accident, because the intermediary itself does not know much, it will not implicate too much, which can ensure the safety of the organization to the greatest extent. ”

"Makes sense." Uncle Lin nodded, "Choose an agent, and then only trade through an agent, because this agent doesn't know anything, and it is indeed secretive enough."

But if something happens to this agent, or he doesn't want to do it, he really can't be replaced? ”

"I've asked that a long time ago." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head, "People said that they can't."

He said that such secret transactions are actually a test of the ability of the state and organization behind the agent.

If an agent who can bring great benefits to himself can't protect it, then the country or organization, it is estimated that it is just like that, and it is not worth continuing to support. ”

"Support?" Uncle Lin squinted and said, "That's what the other party said?" Or do you think? ”

"It's what the other party said." Cao Zhiqiang said, "The word the other party said at that time was support. ”

"Hehe, it's kind of interesting." Uncle Lin smiled, "It seems that the person who traded with you last night talked a lot." ”

"Not really." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "This person is the person I have seen the most, and he chatted with me for a long time before letting me go." I don't know if he did it on purpose, or if he was a rambling himself, but I forced down what he said anyway, and I'm waiting to report back to you. ”

Uncle Lin took a puff of his cigarette and thought about it before asking, "What accent does he speak?" ”

"It's Mandarin, but it sounds a little weird." Cao Zhiqiang frowned.

"What's the weird way?" Uncle Lin asked.

Cao Zhiqiang frowned and said, "How can I say it, I feel a little girly." ”

"A little girl?" Uncle Lin asked suspiciously.

"Yes!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "For example, like this." ”

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang cleared his throat and imitated the Taipu he had heard in his previous life: "I'll tell you frankly, do you really think this is a simple secret deal?" It's naΓ―ve, how can there be such a secret deal in this world? How can you ask for such a small amount of money? This is support, support! ”

After saying this Taipu, Cao Zhiqiang stopped and said again in Beijing films: "It's probably this flavor, do you say it's a mother or not?" Hey, I was listening to it and I got goosebumps all over my body. ”

Uncle Lin narrowed his eyes and nodded: "Ah, then I probably know where the person who connected with you last night came from." ”

Cao Zhiqiang pretended not to understand and asked, "Where?" ”

Uncle Lin pointed to the east: "Where else can it be, over there on Bay Island." ”

"Bay Island?" Cao Zhiqiang immediately made a look of surprise.

Well, this paragraph was carefully designed by Cao Zhiqiang before, and he deliberately said Taipu to make Uncle Lin think about it.

In fact, in 1983, at least in the north, there were really not many people who knew about Taipu.

Because during this period, the Cantonese accent has been widely known along with Cantonese songs, but few people know about Taipu.

Even though Teresa Teng's songs have become widely popular in the mainland, it is her songs that are popular, not her speaking.

Also, the Chinese language of this period, also called Taipu, is actually not as feminine as later generations, and it sounds not much different from Mandarin.

Taipu began to become a mother, but later with the development of the times, more and more Hokkien languages were added, and they began to become mothers, which is mainly due to the addition of a lot of Hokkien tones, as well as with the development of the economy and the social environment.

In fact, don't talk about Taipu, even the Mandarin in the mainland, the Mandarin in 1983 and the Mandarin in 2023 are actually slightly different, not exactly the same.

But no matter what, Cao Zhiqiang's Taipu, for now, except for Bay Island, no place on the mainland has said so, so it is easy to guide it there.

Of course, Uncle Lin may not be completely convinced that this character who was fictionalized by Cao Zhiqiang is from Wandao, after all, it is also possible to deliberately speak like this to guide others, and it is very likely.

Also, Cao Zhiqiang also deliberately emphasized the word "support", which can cause more interpretation.

If you think about it carefully, these things given by Cao Zhiqiang are not at all something that ordinary arms transactions can do.

If you talk about the fire finder series of anti-infantry radars, as well as aircraft engines, you may be able to buy them if you have a good talk with the United States, at most the price is a little more expensive, and the conditions are a little harsh.

However, the Tu-160 supersonic bomber, which is a national heavy weapon, is absolutely impossible to buy, let alone the accompanying cruise missile, which is a proper strategic weapon.

In other words, Cao Zhiqiang said this, which can make this matter appear fuller, more mysterious, and more confusing.

As long as Uncle Lin and them over-interpret, then Cao Zhiqiang himself will be nothing.

It seems that seeing Uncle Lin smoking and pondering, Cao Zhiqiang waited for a while before deliberately and cautiously asked:

"Uncle Lin, if it's really just those radar cars and those aero engines, even if they all carry technical information, I don't think there is any need to alarm your old man to come over overnight.

Also, their asking price suddenly rose so much, from the original 35 million to 2 billion, which is obviously a lion's mouth.

But then I thought about it, they all sent the goods first, and there was no need to make trouble about this kind of thing, so maybe the problem was the so-called special goods, right? ”

Uncle Lin took a puff of cigarette and looked at Cao Zhiqiang: "What, you're curious about what special goods they sent, and you want to ask what they sent, right?" ”

"Curiosity is curiosity." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "But if you're too sensitive, then don't tell me, it's good that I don't know." ”

Uncle Lin nodded: "In other words, you don't know what the so-called 'special goods' they sent this time are, right?" ”

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "I drove away after chatting with the connector, I don't know what happened next, and naturally I don't know what the so-called additional special goods are, I only know that the price he told me at the time has changed, from the original 35 million to 2 billion."

Coupled with your sudden overnight visit, I suspect that there is something wrong with the things that Naga delivered, otherwise it wouldn't have been. ”

Uncle Lin smiled slightly: "Yes, the things they sent this time are very problematic, but well, since they didn't tell you what it was, then I won't tell you, lest after you know it, the psychological pressure will be too great, and when you go out to do things, you will show your feet."

It's not that we don't tell you all the time, but when we wait for you to have more experience and maturity, we will find an opportunity to tell you what happened.

Of course, if you have to ask now, then I can tell you the truth now.

So, choose for yourself, do you listen to the truth now, or choose not to listen? ”

"Then I won't listen." Cao Zhiqiang said, "The more you know, the more trouble you have." ”

"Very smart choice." Uncle Lin smiled and nodded.

Cao Zhiqiang deliberately scratched his head: "I'm just protecting myself, I'm not smart." ”

After a short pause, Cao Zhiqiang took a deep breath: "By the way, Uncle Lin, I have a reluctant request, I don't know if you can help?" ”

"Oh? Reluctantly invited? Uncle Lin, who was pondering, looked at Cao Zhiqiang, "What's the matter, say." ”

Cao Zhiqiang said: "That's right, although I am honored to be this kind of intermediary who is beneficial to the country, and secretly trades, this kind of thing is not visible, and I can't live on this alone."

I also have my own dreams, my own plans, my own preferences, and of course, my own things to do. ”

Uncle Lin smiled: "What do you want to say, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush." ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled, and then said: "That's the case, I went to Japan this time, and I actually achieved certain results."

For example, I signed an artist contract in Japan, and I also contacted the president of a conference club there, and I may take the opportunity to introduce a group of artists from Japan to China for exchanges, and I may also introduce a number of advanced production lines from there.

But they also have a lot of concerns, after all, whether it is the Huaxia Audio-visual Company where I work or the Hongguang Publishing House, including the Hongguang Machinery Factory, they are all state-owned enterprises.

The Japanese are worried about our state-owned enterprises.

So, I think so, with the current momentum, the private sector will emerge sooner or later.

Since it will appear sooner or later, it is better to appear early than to appear that night, so it is better to start with me.

Therefore, I hope that the state can introduce a policy to encourage private enterprises, and the conditions may be set a little higher at the beginning.

For example, the registered capital must be at least 500,000 yuan, and there must be restrictions on urban hukou.

It's best to be able to do special things, and the others will be studied first, but let me set up a private company in my personal name first. ”

"Let you set up a private company in your own name first?" Uncle Lin frowned, "What do you mean?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang said: "This is mainly to facilitate my cooperation and exchanges with foreign companies, especially cultural ones, who are very wary of our state-owned enterprises.

Uncle Lin, you must know my situation, in fact, for me, there is no difference between private and state-owned companies.

But if I'm doing business with foreigners, it's a big difference.

In particular, I already have some contacts with Japanese people, so if I had a private company in a similar situation to them, I would have been able to dispel a lot of concerns.

In addition, I plan to set up branches in Japan and Xiangjiang, so it would be easier for me to accept a private company.

And with the cover of a foreign company, it will be much more convenient for me to connect with that mysterious organization in the future, don't you say? ”

"Makes sense." Uncle Lin nodded, "I will report this request of yours to the relevant personnel, if there is no accident, there should be no problem." ”

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "It's best to hurry up, do special things, and do it within a week, so that I can go directly to Japan to negotiate business with people in the name of the owner of a private company."

In addition, since it involves foreign business, I hope to give me a batch of foreign exchange indicators, allowing me to use my personal money to exchange a sum of yen or US dollars at the market price, and then use it to invest in Japan and set up a company.

Believe me, even if there is no secret deal, my investment in the Japanese business this time must be profitable and lossless, and it will only cost my personal income and nothing else, do you think it is okay? ”

Uncle Lin smiled: "That's it, I'm going back to Beijing soon, why don't you go back with me."

Then, after returning to Beijing, I will introduce someone to you, you tell him all your thoughts, and I will help you say good things when you go back, if there is no accident, there should be no big problem. ”

"Thank you so much." Cao Zhiqiang said excitedly, "Thank you for your support." ”

Uncle Lin smiled slightly: "This is all you deserve, after all, compared to your contribution, this little thing you said is nothing." ”

Speaking of this, Uncle Lin stood up directly: "Okay, don't say much, you pack up and prepare, in a maximum of an hour, I will have someone call you, and then you come with me, let's go back to Beijing directly!" ”
