Under the command of security personnel, Blake's convoy stopped in the designated area.

"Please get off! Get through the security check! ”

"Show your hands! Repeat! Please get out of the car and go through the security check! Show your hands! ”

When the car stopped, the sound came from outside, and Blake in the car looked at Kent who was sitting next to him and smiled:

"Oh! It gave me the feeling of negotiating with an armed group. ”

"It looks so good!"

In this regard, the strong man Kent shrugged his shoulders and said with disapproval:

"That's all!"

However, although he said so, his body was very honest, and his hands didn't seem to move strangely, he just opened the car door, and then got out of the car, and the movements were done in one go.

Because he was born in the military and has been on duty overseas for many years, he knows very well that in the face of this kind of request, the best way is to do it obediently, because any hand movements, such as pockets and the like, can be mistaken by the security personnel for a weapon, in case the other side is very nervous, subconsciously shooting, but it is a dead end.

Not to mention, in the face of important cooperation, the death of several people is not worth mentioning at all, it is equivalent to a vain death.

Then everyone in the convoy got out of the car, and there were about twenty people in total, most of them men, only four or five women, and these people seemed to be very capable, belonging to people who often operated in war zones, and even a dozen people, obviously "battlefield veterans", the kind that could be seen at a glance.

"Which one is Mr. Black?"

After everyone got out of the car with their hands exposed, I saw a lean yellow-skinned man walk forward and ask in non-standard English, this man is naturally the general manager of the security company, Zhao Liang.

"I'm Blake, hello!"

Blake, who was wearing a suit on a hot day, said this, Zhao Liang showed a smile that looked friendly, strode forward, and at the same time stretched out his right hand and said:

"Hello Mr. Black, I am the general manager of Iron Fist Security, and my name is Zhao Liang."

"Of course, you can also call me by my English name, or my code name, Light."

In the face of Zhao Liang's self-introduction, it was obvious that Blake was quite surprised, and then couldn't help but nod with a smile, and said with a look of appreciation in his expression:

"It's a great name, hello Mr. Wright."

"Nice to meet you!"

Blake didn't rush to ask where Wang Ye was, why didn't he show up, he said that the guest was as he pleased, since he had come to the opponent's home field, of course he had to follow the other party's arrangement, which seemed more confident.

"Again, it's an honor."

"But in order for our cooperation to go smoothly, we need a simple security check, I don't think you and your subordinates should mind, right?"

"After all, if something goes wrong, it's not good to cause a misunderstanding."

Then Zhao Liang said so, Blake nodded in approval, and then Zhao Liang waved his hand, at least more than forty staff members walked up, they did not carry weapons, and the security personnel behind them were all carrying weapons.

The so-called security inspection is just a body search, but the body search is also very particular, Wang Ye took this aspect into account at the beginning, and the ministries and commissions also took this issue into account, after all, all security companies may carry out some intelligence work.

So in addition to the instructors of the 5,000 troops, Wang Ye actually has about a hundred tops, from the special department, it is said that they are all at the level of the king of kings, under their simple training, the inspection of these security personnel is very detailed, and then all kinds of problems are reported.

"Report, a bugging device was found in the heel."

"Report, a quenched poison needle was found in the ring."

"Reported, miniature filming device found inside belt buckle"

Under the busyness of the staff, more than 20 people who came with Black were examined in detail, like the armpit holster of the strong man Kent, which was just the most basic operation, almost all men had it, and the rest was all kinds of strange things, which even opened the eyes of the staff present.

However, Blake had nothing on him.

Although there were still all kinds of outrageous voices in his ears, Zhao Liang still had a faint smile on his face, as if he didn't think he thought or cared.

Finally, after Blake's physical examination was completed, and at the same time, all kinds of things were searched from the accompanying staff, placed on the ground next to them, and placed neatly, Zhao Liang began to speak:

"Our factory director often tells us that science and technology are the primary productive forces."

"Although this is our first meeting, you have already impressed me, made us very impressed, and let us be amazed, like the camera in this belt buckle, tsk! Intricate creations. ”

"Your country's science and technology are really impressive!"

Zhao Liang's words seemed to be complimenting, and Blake said with a smile without hesitation:

"Thank you for the compliment, it's our honor."

"And about your director's words, I deeply agree that science and technology are indeed the primary productive forces!"

"To be honest, I also have the same feeling as you, although this is only our first meeting, although I have not yet met the legendary gentleman, the director of the factory in your mouth, but my perception of him has climbed to a new level, it seems to be a lot clearer, but it is also a lot more hazy, because I think I already have a certain understanding of him, but now I find that my understanding does not seem to be sufficient, he is far beyond my imagination."

"Just like this sentence, technology is the primary productive force, and I think it's enough to make the front page of the New York Times."

"Oh! In case you don't know, the New York Times is the most influential newspaper in our country, and it is the newspaper that both Mr. President and the most ordinary citizens like to read. ”

Regarding Blake's evaluation of Wang Ye, Zhao Liang deeply agreed, and then said:

"I'm looking forward to the next meeting, even if it's me."

"But also for the sake of the safety and smoothness of the meeting, Mr. Black, you may appoint an attaché with you to meet my director, and His Royal Highness Prince Satler will accompany you."

"Rest assured, your safety is no problem."

Faced with Zhao Liang's statement, Blake was not surprised, but the strong man Kent who was standing next to him obviously hesitated, but in the end, he saw that Blake did not say anything, nor did he say anything directly.

"Of course there is no problem, Juliet, you and I come!"

With Blake's voice, a red-haired woman with tall figures, slender legs, and beautiful limbs walked out in the crowd, she nodded and came to Blake's side, Zhao Liang said without squinting:

"Then let's go."

"But both of you need to wear blindfolds.

Blake nodded, and then the two got into a car next to them, put on the blindfolds, and the car rumbled off, about ten minutes or so, the two were taken off from the car, walking, going down the stairs, going up the stairs, opening the door, and a series of operations, and finally sat on a comfortable chair.

"Whew!"

When the blindfold was removed, Blake exhaled, subconsciously glanced around, and found that this was a medium-sized living room, the window had thick curtains, it was impossible to determine whether it was ground or underground, and the headlights were used for lighting the room, and at this moment there were more than ten people in the room in addition to himself and Juliet.

There was a smiling young man sitting directly across from him, who was looking at him with great interest, and Sattaler, who was drinking a can of Coke, as well as three staff members, eight guards with guns, who wore masks and couldn't see clearly, and the room was quiet, except for the hum of an old-fashioned electric fan.

"Welcome, Mr. Black!"

"Please forgive me for not being rude to meet you at the airport and parking lot in person."

"Still, I don't think you care about these little things, do you? What would you like to drink? Tea? Coffee? Coke? Or ice water? ”

As Blake had just shaken off that sense of chaos, the young man sitting opposite him with his legs crossed asked with a smile, speaking a fairly standard American English, which sounded very comfortable, as if he had returned to his hometown in the United States, not in the barbaric place of the desert.

"Ice water! Ice water is fine! ”

Faced with this question, Blake hurriedly said, and Wang Ye didn't give him a chance to continue talking, looked at the entourage next to him, and asked again:

"What about this beautiful lady?"

"What would you like to drink? Still don't know what to call you? ”

Hearing Wang Ye's inquiry, the red-haired girl who accompanied Blake said with a very warm smile at the same time:

"Juliette Brown, Mr. Wang Ye can call me Juliet, or you can call me Brown."

"Then I'll want a cup of coffee! No added sugar. After all, Tanzanian coffee is said to be of very good quality. ”

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became relaxed, and the staff next to him, who acted as waiters, poured a glass of ice water for Blake and a cup of coffee for Juliet.

In the silent room, Blake took a sip of ice water, and the whole person returned to his former appearance again, looked at Wang Ye and said with a smile:

"Mr. Wang Ye, I want to see you, but it's really not easy!"

"In fact, in my opinion, many processes are not necessary, because you should be very clear that we are here with good intentions, and I have recently liked a saying in your country, calling the enemy of your enemy a friend."

"I think we're friends now!"

"And thanks to our multiple enemies, we're still good friends!"

"Besides, there's His Royal Highness Prince Sattler here, and a friend's friend is a friend, isn't it?"

In the face of Blake's ridicule, Wang Ye couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth, while Sattler next to him waved his hand and said:

"I'm just a listener who came with ears today, and I won't express any opinions, you two can start now, please ignore my presence."

Then Wang Ye coughed lightly and said with a smile on his face:

"I'm doing this for my own safety and yours on the other."

"Of course, I know very well that you have good intentions, but for a huge country, there will not be only one voice, and we can't ignore the existence of other voices just because the friendly voice is relatively loud and covers up other voices, then we will definitely die a miserable death!"

"Mr. Black, you should know exactly what I'm talking about in the name of 'darkness.'"

In the face of Wang Ye's rather direct statement, it is obvious that Blake's expression is a little more solemn, in fact, the meaning of Wang Ye's words is very simple, maybe the United States has good intentions, but the United States is an empty national concept, a concept composed of countless interest groups, some interest groups have good intentions, and some interests are not necessarily.

Then those with good intentions will find ways to promote cooperation, and then those with malicious interests will find ways to continue to destroy, just like when he got off the plane today, Kent said, if someone really uses himself and others as bait, and then locks Wang Ye's location and uses missiles or planes to carry out a sneak attack, it will definitely succeed, but the dead people are not only Wang Ye, but also himself and others!

This probability is very small, but it is definitely not zero, because within the United States, there is no agreement on whether to cooperate with the consortium and the East, but the emergence of this situation is only the result of a game, and the partner temporarily occupies the top, but it does not mean that the rejection of the partner does not exist.

And now, only himself and Juliet saw Wang Ye, after a strict search and blindfolded movement, God knows where the current conversation is, whether it is in that base or not.

In this way, the probability of a sneak attack is very low, there is no accurate location, unless a nuclear weapon is launched, it will not have any effect, it will only get into trouble, and those opposing interest communities will not do such stupid things.

The thought flashed through Blake's mind, and finally he nodded and said with emotion:

"Mr. Wang Ye, in my opinion, you should probably become a politician."

"Although I don't want to admit it, I have to admit that your knowledge and understanding of politics is absolutely the best in the world!"

Hearing Blake say this, Wang Ye smiled and waved, and then said:

"Alright, Mr. Black, let's stop flattering each other, it's not interesting."

"Let's get straight to the point!"

Speaking of this, Wang Ye paused slightly, then looked at Blake with burning eyes and said:

"I would like to know, was you the last time you extended an invitation to me through Pakistan?"

Faced with Wang Ye's question, Blake shook his head without thinking and said:

"No, it's not me, it's the head of another department."

"It doesn't have a direct relationship with me."

Suddenly, a sudden realization visible to the naked eye appeared on Wang Ye's face, and then Wang Ye continued:

"Alright! My first question has been solved. ”

"Then this is my second doubt, Mr. Black, I am actually very curious, what are you looking for me for so desperately, and even paying a great price to Sartler?"

Speaking of this, Wang Ye said in a loud voice:

"That's $100 million!"

"Actually, you can send a telegram directly to the address publicly available to the Red Star Consortium."

"If you had said in the telegram that you would be willing to pay me $100 million for a meeting as long as you saw me, then you would have already seen me, and you would not have to go around such a big circle."

"Why bother making money for this unrelated person? You say not? ”

In the face of Wang Ye's ridicule, Satler, Blake, and Juliet, who was sitting there, couldn't help laughing, and Blake also laughed at himself very appropriately:

"In this way, I was too stupid to be direct enough."

When Blake's words fell, the room fell silent again, and after a few seconds of silence, Blake coughed lightly before he said:

"Mr. Wang Ye, the second question you are curious about, I can answer it now."

"There are three main reasons why I am so urgent to meet you."

"For the first purpose, we hope that the Red Star Consortium can become a full-fledged supplier of supplies to Afghanistan, including all kinds of weapons, all kinds of ammunition, all kinds of vehicles, all kinds of equipment, food, clothing, fuel, etc."

"The situation in Afghanistan is very bad right now, and in the face of the powerful Soviet offensive, the guerrillas have almost no resistance, and they will probably not survive this year with the supplies we have to support."

"And if Afghanistan is eaten by the Soviet Union, then the Soviet Union and India will complete the left and right encirclement of Pakistan, Pakistan may not last long, even with the full support of both of us, it will be useless, after all, the gap in the size of the country is too big, and in the end they have only one way to surrender, then everything is over!"

"Let's not mention us for the time being, but just say that you, from north to west, from west to south, you will be surrounded! Surrounded by death! ”

"The second purpose, we hope that the Red Star Consortium can take on the big task of opening up the land passage to Pakistan, and even to Afghanistan."

"Now the supply of supplies by sea is too inefficient, and the situation at sea is difficult to control in the future, if India blocks the open sea of Pakistan, then we will not be able to send a fleet directly, and in the end Pakistan and Afghanistan are both stuck on land, under the siege of the Soviet Union and India, waiting for death!"

"The third purpose, now that the security company has been established, it is said that the name is Iron Fist, right? Cool name! We are well aware that this security company was set up to send armed forces to Saudi Arabia to support it, and we acquiesced to this because we thought it was a good thing. ”

"Because this security company can not only send military forces to Saudi Arabia, but also send personnel to Afghanistan! Note that I'm talking about personnel, not military force, and we don't expect you to be directly involved in the conflict in Afghanistan, we just want you to send some instructors and medical support personnel to them. ”

"They are very short of these people!"
