It took only a day or two for Alice to arrive in Washington, but there were enough things to be recorded wonderfully, at least as far as Bush Sr.'s evaluation was concerned.

After a good meal, the idea was to find an investor for the oil company that George Jr. was in debt with, but he didn't want to have a heart attack. It is also strange for Bush Sr. to think about it, because he has lived for sixty years and has never had any problems with his heart. It happened to start just a week before little Alice's visit, with intermittent cardiac arrests driving him crazy, and then happened to have the most violent attack at the visitors luncheon.

Is it true that I am still old after all, as those damn doctors said?

For the little girl Alice, Bush Sr. had a good impression from the very beginning. He clearly remembered that it was last year... when was last year, the Alice he met suddenly on the plane. Over the years, due to work needs, Bush Sr. has been in contact with many Chinese-American children, and it is not uncommon to see Chinese-American children, but he sometimes thinks about it afterwards, and for some reason, this little girl, Alice, always gives him a kind of love. cordial feeling.

Therefore, without little Alice taking the initiative to do anything, Bush Sr. was already happy to be a gift of water, and gave her Cisco a large order. The government procurement of five or six states on the east coast not only fosters a new entrepreneurial star, but also accumulates his own political achievements and contacts. Why not do it?

Living up to his expectations, little Alice did show astounding potential, so after learning about North Carolina politics, he was naturally happy to chat with Reagan again. The Iran-Iraq War has long been a long-term international problem. It is really not a worry for the White House and Congress to be in a dilemma between oil tycoons and arms dealers. So, since Mr. President has already met with Alice on the issue of network security, why not add the support of Blackwater International Company?

These are very normal thoughts. As the so-called meritocracy, any politician is happy to be friends with a gifted girl who is only fifteen years old and has achieved hundreds of millions of fortunes by relying on her own talents. Bush Sr. is very clear about the ideals of his sons. Both George Jr. and Jeb Jr. are very interested in politics. If at this time, they vigorously support Alice, a fifteen-year-old billionaire, to make her career even better One floor, so will the return be less in the future?

It's just that they never expected that they would suddenly owe Alice a big favor.

In fact, even President Reagan needed to think about how to repay Alice after rescuing the Vice President of the United States who had suffered a sudden cardiac arrest.

Because it is already 1987, and there are only 365 days left in Reagan's term, and the best successor in his mind is the current vice president. If Bush Sr. had left so suddenly...he would have been in a daze.

Therefore, the 300 million U.S. dollars in financial support for Blackwater International was just approved.

Of course, the money will be paid by the Ministry of Defense, and there will be a series of non-disclosure agreements signed with Alice Wang. After Reagan met with Alice at the White House, within three days, the location was changed to the secret meeting room of the Pentagon near the Washington Airport. Reagan walked into the room with steady steps.

"stand up!"

"sit!"

All the soldiers sat down in unison, and Alice, who was in the last seat, moved a little slower.

"Gentlemen and ladies, let's begin."

Sitting down at the chief, Reagan didn't gossip too much, and started by saying: "Alice and I talked on the phone yesterday, but you all need to listen to her on the spot, Alice, and I will leave the rest of the matter to you." .”

After the words fell, everyone in the audience looked at the girl at the end of the table in unison.

Looks are different.

Minister of Defense Weinberg was looking at Alice with a smile and searching eyes. Almost all the people present were army generals, and they looked at Alice in different ways. There were dozens of sharp, arrogant, indifferent, or relaxed eyes all at the same time. This scene was enough to scare most of them. An ordinary girl of this age.

However, Alice didn't show any signs of stage fright.

Today, she is wearing a very formal small suit. The white suit pants and top are both Armani's neutral and slim fit, which perfectly sets off her taller figure than her peers. His long hair was styled behind his head, and the light make-up on his face was the minimum respect for the interviewees, and more appropriately highlighted a glamorous heroic spirit, which happened to coincide with Armani's fashion philosophy.

"Then, let me briefly describe the situation."

She tapped the table with her slender fingers, pondered for a moment, then gently raised the corners of her lips that were painted with light pink lip gloss: "From the beginning when I planned to set up this security company, I planned to develop in the direction of mercenaries, so although I trained The base has just been built, but it already has the conditions to provide training for the world's most elite special forces. You can visit the site, the CEO of the company is Levi Akaman from Delta, and the instructors selected by him are also from Delta Of course, General Hammer is very clear about this point, right?"

In her last sentence, she directly threw the topic to the only brigadier general present.

The only brigadier general surrounded by many generals.

"My soldier, of course I know."

This is a brigadier general who is close to fifty years old, with a pair of eagles and falcons shining brightly. After hearing Alice's question, he said proudly and seriously: "Akaman is an excellent fighter. When he was still fighting in Vietnam, this kid was at least Saved me three times. So when Delta was formed, I recruited him into the team without a second thought. You are lucky to be able to invite him to work in this company!"

It’s not that Alice is good at picking someone, but on the contrary, she’s lucky. This makes Reagan, who doesn’t know the situation, a little curious. He doesn’t know so many details: “That Akaman, saved you three times?”

"Yes, Mr. President."

Facing the president, Hammer replied solemnly: "Although he joined the Vietnam War at the end of the war, we all know that the last few years are the most disgusting time. Let's put it this way, Mr. President, He's Greek, and said to be of direct Spartan blood, if you imagine."

These few words were simple enough, and the content made Reagan immediately applaud: "It's amazing! General Hammer, are you sure? The direct descendants of the Spartans? This nation has long since died out, right?" !? Can he be sure of such a thing himself!?”

"If you have a family tree that's been preserved for thousands of years, it's certainly easy to trace."

Alice interrupted the conversation, and said instead: "In short, the standards of the training venue and the quality of the instructors can be guaranteed. Generals here, just go ahead and recruit those veterans who have just retired. Make sure we can fight a good battle on the Iran-Iraq battlefield."

These few words will not impress these people here. As soon as Alice finished speaking, a general with four stars on his shoulders spoke up: "Miss Alice, I have a series of questions to ask you now, please answer them seriously."

Alice frowned slightly. The general's tone was a bit unfriendly. Did he want to find fault?

She said lightly: "Please ask."

The general said: "First of all, although I am not a racist, you are a Chinese after all. The Ministry of National Defense has entrusted you with such a major matter. Why should we trust you?"

As soon as the words fell, he himself immediately added: "Alice, I have to ask this question first. Although I know you are a native American, I also know that you have a pure-blood Chinese father and a 20-year-old father. Grandparents who came to California. And in the past two years, you have returned to China to develop your career. If the Ministry of Defense really entrusts you with this kind of business, why should we trust you?"

After speaking, he immediately shut up and waited for Alice to answer.

The atmosphere at this time is a little bit delicate, and the expressions of everyone fully reflect their psychology as politicians.

And the slightest changes in everyone's facial muscles were clearly perceived by Alice.

Ah, this kind of thing.

Alice's eyes swept across the audience, everyone was waiting for her answer with great interest, but the young general who asked the question had a serious face.

"Why?"

Alice smiled calmly, and said softly: "Just... I just need to have a computer, this radio, and a few simple tools, and I can crash the U.S. stock market in three minutes. ,How about it?"

It was a very relaxed and gentle sentence, but it caused the expression of everyone in the audience to change again.

And it gets really fast.

Well, all froze.

However, Alice did not let them go, but still said in this almost weak tone, slowly: "Well...IBM really gave me a lot of inspiration, really, a lot of inspiration. But from a technical point of view, those hackers are really too rash. If it were me, I would definitely clear up the evidence and never leave any traces on the servers of the Nasdaq exchange. Of course , This is actually an afterthought. If I were really asked to replace them to create this history, it might cause the same mistake. Although no one will find out, and I will definitely not expose myself, but a mistake is a mistake, you say Right?"

The last sentence was spoken as if he hadn't woken up.

But at this moment, the people in the entire conference room felt as if they were sitting in an ice cellar.

"Well, cough cough."

In this way, after a full fifteen seconds, President Reagan took the lead in breaking the silence: "Well, ahem, what Alice said is very reasonable. Network security is indeed a topic that the United States needs to strengthen. Weinberg, look at us How about giving Cisco some R\u0026D money after this meeting?"

Weinberg smiled dryly: "Mr. President is wise."

Amidst the dry laughter in the audience, Alice noticed that the early general looked at some generals who were wiping cold sweat, and smiled disdainfully at the corner of his mouth.

Oops, rivers and lakes...
