Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 1741 Testing each other

With the authorization from the president, the Argentine intelligence director suddenly felt confident. As for contacting Toshiba personnel, we have already thought of countermeasures. The key person is Xiong Gudu, so if we find him directly, the matter can be done. The most important thing is that there is currently no better way, and Argentina simply cannot afford to wait.

The Falklands War promoted economic reform in Argentina. Coupled with factors such as the two energy crises in the 1970s and the appreciation of the US dollar, the Argentine economy was hit to a certain extent. Exports fell and inflation spiraled out of control. Reform will definitely cause harm to vested interests. It can be said that the domestic situation is very complex.

Although Alfonsin has some abilities, he is also powerless in the face of the complicated forces in the country. The best way at the moment is to accumulate strength; without the support of a strong defense industry, no one will listen.

Diego Scott is an Argentine diplomat stationed in Japan, and his true identity is an agent of the Intelligence Service. During the Cold War, it was very common for agents from various countries to use their diplomat status as cover; it has even become a default practice of the international community.

As agents, diplomats are easy to monitor; if it were someone else, the threat would be even greater.

After receiving the order from the director, he did not dare to neglect at all. No one knows Argentina’s current international situation better than diplomats. Since the Falklands War, his life in Japan has not been easy. Weak countries have no diplomacy, which is the code of conduct between countries.

Now that I have the opportunity to make the country stronger, I can also contribute; naturally I have to go all out.

Isn't it just to find Xiong Gudu? There is a name and surname, and the information is so complete; if you can't even do this, you feel like you have failed the motherland.

Diego Scott's position in the Argentine Embassy in Japan is not high and he is an underappreciated person; it is also easier to move around. After receiving the order, he began to monitor Xiong Gudu and did not dare to rush forward; at least he had to find out the details of the other party.

There is no alternative to using diplomats. Argentina's main intelligence force is all located in the United Kingdom, and its own funds are limited, so other countries, especially Asian countries, can only use diplomats to do part-time intelligence collection work.

After two days of observation, Xiong Gudu’s work and life trajectory have been basically determined. The country is still waiting, the moment of achievement is now, and Diego Scott decided to act immediately. Contact is only the first step, and there are still many things to do next; just transporting the required weapons and equipment from Japan to Argentina will take a long time.

Since the last time he helped the Soviet Union transport four five-axis CNC machine tools, Xiong Gu's status in the company has skyrocketed. He was soon promoted to the position of vice president. If nothing goes wrong, it will only be a matter of time before he takes over as president of the company.

Originally, my life was supposed to be very comfortable. Promotion meant a raise in salary; I would live a prosperous life from now on. But who would have thought that the Japanese stock market crashed and that previous investments in the stock market were about to be wasted. No one can bear that so many years of hard work are about to be in vain.

Therefore, I have not been in a very good mood recently. In fact, it is the same; no one who loses money will be in a better mood. Seeing that Xiong Gudu went to the pub to get drunk every day after get off work, and the Japanese stock market continued to fall recently; Diego Scott, who has lived in Japan for a long time, immediately thought of something.

I'm afraid that this guy has no desires and needs. If that were the case, he wouldn't dare to export control equipment to the Soviet Union. Although Argentina is not rich, that is only in relative terms; if a country wants to bribe an ordinary person, there is no problem at all. Diego Scott followed him to the tavern and saw that there was no one around; he sat directly next to Xiong Gudu.

Seeing that it was a foreigner, they didn't pay much attention at first; neither of them spoke and just drank by themselves.

Not professional, but also specially trained; Diego Scott is definitely more determined than Xiong Gudu. Xiong Gudu came over first, so he would definitely finish the wine first. When he saw that there was no wine in the pot, he thought about leaving. The Japanese are still very restrained in this area; even if they are unhappy, they rarely get drunk.

How could Diego Scott miss this opportunity and directly pour a glass of wine from his own bottle to Xiong Gudu. Seeing that the foreigner next to him was actually pouring himself wine, Xiong Guli immediately became alert. Showing hospitality for nothing is a traitor or a thief. If he were just an ordinary person, he might think it was nothing; he would only regard the other person as an ordinary drinking buddy, but Xiong Gudu is a man with a secret.

When you are awake, you naturally think more.

As an intelligence officer, his ability to observe what is happening is definitely not bad. From Xiong Gudu's expression just now, it is not difficult to analyze that this boy is very vigilant. It was completely inconsistent with the identity, and he was even more determined that the person in front of him was the person he was looking for.

Diego Scott really couldn't believe the domestic intelligence personnel, even if it was an order personally issued by the director of intelligence. After all, the overall quality and strength of the domestic personnel is really not flattering.

Now it seems that domestic colleagues are not without merit, and they have done a very good job this time.

Xiong Gudu: "Do we know each other?"

As an executive of a multinational trading company, I often deal with foreigners. In my impression, I seem to have never seen this person before me. Although a glass of wine doesn't cost much, I don't want to take advantage of the other person for no reason.

Diego Scott smiled and said: "We don't know each other, but we have a common friend. He and your Excellency did a lot of business at Shibaura Pier in Japan one night in the spring of 1983."

Hearing this, Xiong Gudu lost all his drunkenness in an instant. Even if you forget yourself, you can't forget this matter. It was from that day on that status in the company became even more important. How did the other party know such top-secret information?

Xiong Gudu: "I don't know what you are talking about. If it's okay, I'll take my leave first."

Failure to expose it means there is no evidence; there is another possibility that it does not benefit oneself. Now they come to the door, either for blackmail or with other demands.

Therefore, no matter how you look at it, you will still look for him; the tavern is full of good and bad people, and you will get trapped in it if you are not careful.

Diego Scott did not stop Xiong Gudu from leaving; instead, he continued drinking. Today was just the beginning; I believe they will meet again soon.

When I got home at night, Xiong Gudu couldn't calm down for a long time. The things I worried about still happened. There is no airtight wall in the world. There is nothing wrong with this saying. It seemed that he had to come up with a countermeasure, otherwise he would be destined to be imprisoned.

If the Americans smuggle five-axis CNC machine tools to the Soviet Union, the whole country will be in trouble; they will definitely find a scapegoat, and he is definitely the most suitable candidate.

At the same time, who the person sitting next to him just now was and what force he came from also made him curious.

But one thing is for sure, the news has leaked. There must be something wrong with the Soviet Union. This is not difficult to analyze from the man's words just now.

There are traitors among the people involved in the transaction in the Soviet Union. Doesn’t it mean that the KGB is an elite? It’s no wonder that the polar bear, who is in decline, sent an unreliable person to do such a confidential thing. Of course Xiong Gudu didn't know that his previous life was known to Americans, and the problem came from him.

On second thought, maybe it's not such a bad thing; at least for him personally. The trading company paid a large amount of hush money last time, and I heard that Ryuji Hayashi and Hiroaki Tanimura, the two direct participants, earned even more. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the two of them to buy real estate in the most luxurious area of ​​Tokyo. What kind of strength the two of them have; he still knows very well.

Now that someone takes the initiative to come to the door, it must be him who takes the lead; after the event is completed, it is normal for huge profits to account for the majority.

There are only 0 and n dangerous things, and few people stop after doing it once; they simply cannot withstand the huge temptation.

Diego Scott returned to the hotel and began to plan his next plan; not only did he meet the target person today, but he was also basically certain that the other person was involved. The country is very anxious; although I am not in Argentina, I know the situation of high-level officials, including the president.

At the same time, in the villa where Bao Zixuan is located, Heiyun intelligence personnel are making relevant reports.

Intelligence officer: "Boss, the Argentine Intelligence Service has assigned the task to Diego Scott, the diplomat stationed in Japan, to be fully responsible for this matter."

"Diego Scott appears to be a diplomat, but is actually an agent of the Intelligence Service of the Argentine Presidential Palace. Since the Falklands War, Argentina's economy has plummeted; domestic inflation is very serious; the allocation of intelligence agencies has naturally increased accordingly. To reduce the number of diplomats sent to various countries, they need to take on the task of collecting and organizing intelligence."

Mr. Bao knew everything about all this; even the conversation between Argentine President Alfonsín and the Director of Intelligence was recorded. Argentina has no money, but as the world's richest man, he has nothing to lack. Although the most important thing in intelligence work is elite talent, the core is still funds.

If you want to make people sacrifice their lives, it is not appropriate to rely solely on feelings and national justice. Once intelligence agents discover that he is risking his life while working at the front, his wife and children at the back are not as happy as ordinary working-class people; anyone will have thoughts in their mind.

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, and it is basically applicable in that field. Therefore, we can know the relevant situation in Argentina as soon as possible.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "It seems that there are really not many people available in Argentina. Didn't the two of them meet!"

As a Heiyun intelligence officer, I still feel the happiest. Argentine agents make no money themselves and have to bear risks. They do the same job as the other person, but the salary is much higher than that of their peers.

The boss must be satisfied and feel that it is worth the money.

Intelligence officer: "The two met in a tavern near Xionggu Exclusive. They struck up a conversation, but the people in the tavern were chatty; both parties didn't say much."

"As for Diego Scott, he lives in a hotel opposite Xionggu Exclusive and is currently planning a second meeting."

Bao Zixuan didn't say anything, but waved his hand; his subordinates immediately understood what he meant.

I poured myself a glass of wine. I don’t know what’s going on today; I just can’t sleep. On the surface, he appears to be very happy, with no shortage of women and children; but as his wealth increases, he feels increasingly lonelier.

There are so many secrets in my heart that I can only share them by myself; I don’t even dare to talk in my sleep even when I’m dreaming at night! It's not good to be too worried. It seems that you need to adjust it properly. But one thing must be done, and that is to continuously strengthen oneself.

The disintegration of the Soviet Union is only a matter of time, and it must gain enough strength to protect itself before that. When the Americans want to deal with him, they must also consider whether they can withstand the losses.

The next day was the weekend and he didn't have to go to work. According to his past habits, Xiong Gudu would go to the park to exercise. Today was no exception; it was even earlier than usual. I tossed and turned when I got home last night and almost didn't sleep all night.

Thinking about getting up and sweating in the morning might calm you down a bit.

But what he didn't expect was that when he was running, the foreigner yesterday would actually follow him. This is someone who has been watching, and has even found his home; he is definitely prepared.

Xiong Gudu was very familiar with the park, and there happened to be a secluded place in front of him; he ran straight over. It could be said that we met him by chance at the bar last night, but it was clear that we were looking for him deliberately this morning.

The most important thing is that you have figured it out, and if the conditions are right, you don’t mind placing an order. If you suffer serious losses in the stock market and want to maintain a decent life, you must find a way to make up for it.

As an agent, Diego Scott had long been familiar with this place; when he saw the direction in which Xiong Gudu was running, he instantly understood what it meant.

Seeing that there was no one around, Xiong Gudu stopped and said very formally: "Sir, do we know each other?"

It is necessary to find out the identity of the other party, in case it is fishing for law enforcement; he will be the unlucky one.

Diego Scott knew that it would be useless to explain too much now; so he directly took out the ID and showed it to Xiong Gu alone. At the same time, he said: "Hello, Mr. Xiong Gudu, I am Diego Scott; I am from Argentina; I am a diplomat at the Argentine Embassy in Japan. I have no other intention to come to you this time; I just hope you can help. Come to Argentina, we come with enough sincerity."

Judging from the appearance, it is basically possible to determine the South American race; however, whether it is from Argentina requires further research. If the opponent is from Argentina, there is really no threat.

You must know that the country Argentina hates most is undoubtedly the United Kingdom, and the United Kingdom and the United States are the kind of people who are too fat to wear a pair of pants. Coupled with Britain's continued economic blockade against Argentina, Argentina's life is not easy.

The purpose of coming here is self-explanatory, it must be that he hopes to obtain controlled materials and weapons through him.

Certificates alone cannot be used to confirm and further verification is required.

Xiong Gudu didn't know much about Argentina, but fortunately he was a fan; so he smiled and said: "Since you are from Argentina, I want to know how many goals and assists Maradona scored in the 1986 World Cup."

If you are Argentinian, it is impossible not to know Maradona's performance in the last World Cup. If you don't even know this, you are definitely a liar.

As an intelligence officer, he reacted very quickly and understood what he meant instantly; the other party's brain circuit was really different, so no wonder he could do some confidential things.

Diego Scott smiled and said: "The 1986 World Cup; the perfect storm created by Maradona was crazy, especially his wonderful "Hand of God" and the five consecutive best goalscorers in the World Cup. ball. In the end, he scored 5 goals and 5 assists; helping Argentina win the World Cup championship, and Maradona relied on his strong performance to win the Ballon d'Or that year."

"In the 1986 World Cup, Argentina scored a total of 14 goals. Maradona contributed 5 goals, 5 assists, and 3 indirect assists. All 13 goals were closely related to him, and he scored 14 goals in total. 13 of them are inseparable from Maradona, which shows his dominance."

He was very excited, even excited; it was almost certain that the other party was from Argentina. Even if people from other countries knew about Maradona's performance at the World Cup, they would not be able to express it with emotion.
