Firepower is king

The loss dropped from US$3 billion to US$2 billion, and Gao Guang felt that Smith should be able to accept it.

Now that they are adults, Smith should know that money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat. He should also know that a man can bend and stretch. If he was a stupid young man who would fight to the death when he was angry, he should not be in the position he is now. Yes, no, I probably won’t survive now.

Whether you want to help Smith or not is a question of highlighting, but whether you are willing to help highlight it is a question of the shooting club. As for how to help specifically, the members of the shooting club need to think carefully about it.

Gao Guang called Tom in front of Lloyd.

The attitude of the CIA is very critical, because Tom's weight is obviously not enough, but if he can persuade his superiors to come forward, or even the top brass of the CIA to be willing to lend a hand for the sake of more than 100 million US dollars, then it will be stable.

If you view this matter purely as a matter of helping others, it may not be easy to handle, but if you view it as a crime and everyone takes a bite of Smith's body, then this matter can be handled, and it can be done. Easier to handle.

Moreover, Gao Guang had a pretty good time getting along with the CIA during this period, so Gao Guang thought there should be no problem.

Gao Guang called Tom and briefly explained the matter, especially the amount. Of course, he had to reiterate his relationship with Smith and his determination to help Smith.

Tom was quite interesting. He asked for two hours, which meant that he had to use two hours to find out what the CIA's higher-ups meant. Of course, it was also the time he needed to convince the higher-ups.

Two hours later, Tom still didn't reply to Gao Guang.

Until the agreed time for the conference call to begin, Tom was the last one on the line.

The meeting took place in Lloyd's car, just Gao Guang and Lloyd. The phone was placed on the steering wheel, and Jane and Tom were in the two small frames on the screen.

We have all communicated in advance and know the whole story, so now we are summarizing the information and countermeasures to see if the three parties can work together to solve this matter.

Tom was the last to come online, but he was the first to speak.

"The matter on my side has been negotiated. We are willing to ask Congressman Simons about this matter. It is just an inquiry. We will not question his behavior or condemn what he did. We will simply ask him what the end result is. What's going on, but we will say that we are asking for Smith."

It's just a simple question. The head of the CIA called Congressman Simmons and asked how this happened. That's all.

Just one phone call is worth 1.5 billion.

Because this phone call was made, it means that the CIA intends to speak for Smith. It has a good sense of propriety, but it will not stand up for Smith. It must do whatever Simmons wants, but as long as Congressman Simmons is sensible, he must sell the CIA. A face.

If the going price of stolen gold is 30% off, then this phone call from the CIA can get another 10% off.

Tom explained what the CIA would do and to what extent it would do it, and then he said to Lloyd: "General, the military can only rely on you to speak. You know our relationship with the military. If we give Calling the military may have the opposite effect

. "

The Pentagon and the CIA have never dealt with it. If the CIA calls the two generals involved in this matter, it might really be self-defeating.

Of course, Lloyd understood the reason. He immediately nodded and said: "I will call the participants on the military side. I will also ask, but I will say that Smith is my friend, and I can only call The military has called, and it’s not convenient for me to intervene where Congressman Simons is.”

Jane exhaled. She also looked tired. After waving her hands gently, she said solemnly: "I will call Congressman Simmons and the military respectively. None of these are available." question, but now I have other questions, that is, if we jointly take action because of Smith's matter, then our small group alliance will appear in the eyes of the American military and civilian circles. Do you think such consequences can be tolerated? ”

Lloyd had obviously considered this matter, and he said seriously: "As an alliance, whether it is a military alliance or a political alliance, it is the same, that is, it makes sense to announce it. Hiding and exposing each have their own pros and cons, but I think it is now open to the public. The time is ripe, and the Smith incident is also a good opportunity to show our influence. If we want to gain more support and want more people to join us, we must let people know about the existence of this alliance. "

Tom supported Lloyd's long speech, because what Lloyd said made sense, and he really needed a military friend like Lloyd in the foreseeable future.

Jane took a long time to think about it, because she had a special status, and based on the power currently held by the Department of Homeland Security, her status was also relatively transcendent.

After thinking for a moment, Jane nodded and said: "Okay, it's time to make it public. Now at least people know that the three of us are together, and then little Otto."

I don't know why Jane specifically mentioned the highlights. She looked at the highlights on the screen, and her face that already looked a little haggard darkened again. Then she smiled reluctantly and said, "Little Otto is in Washington, right? Just in time. I’m also in Washington. If you have time, let’s meet.”

Gao Guang nodded and said, "Okay."

Jane whispered: "That's it, I still have some things to deal with here. When the time is right, we will start to put pressure. But I want to remind everyone that if Simmons doesn't give us this face, we will counterattack and We must keep up with our retaliatory measures. This is our first joint appearance. Although it is not a big deal, it still means a lot to us. If we want to retaliate, we must do it thoroughly."

Lloyd nodded and said: "Yes, we must prevent this possibility. As for retaliation, I will let the White House investigate their crimes of gold smuggling."

Jane said without hesitation: "If you do something like this, you will offend others. Have you considered the possibility of being attacked and retaliated by others in the future?"

Lloyd said: "Of course, there are always enemies. We can't be good gentlemen and not offend anyone. If there are friends, there will be enemies. If there are enemies, there will be friends. This is normal."

Jane had no problem, she nodded and said: "Little Otto will go and talk to Smith first. As long as Smith is willing to cooperate, we will start." Since it is time to take action, and there are benefits, then we must take action, and the shooting club can reach unity. The attitude is clear. Gao Guang was very happy, because no matter what else, at least Smith was saved.
