"How to limit?" To be honest, if Hong Tao's scope of action can be limited reasonably and legally, Randy would rather convert to the Eastern Buddha.But this matter is almost impossible, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs alone cannot pass it, let alone the military watching over it.
When Hong Tao agreed to step off the destroyer, the alliance gave him the condition that his freedom would not be restricted, and he himself voted for it.It has only been a few months since he turned his back on his promise, and he will inevitably be opposed by the royalists and some neutral officials, losing their support, and re-election is even more a dream.
Chapter 1040 No clue
"...The council has already had this intention. The bad guys let them do it. You just need to convince the neutrals to vote in favor of the proposal to amend the basic rules of the alliance. The royalists alone should not be able to stop it.
The reason why that person can act recklessly without any scruples is that the relationship is secondary, the most important thing is that he is too familiar with the current rules, as long as the rules are changed, he will naturally be unable to play! "
Ma Yibo took another two steps forward, stood behind Randy, poked his head forward, almost whispered, and then deliberately lowered his voice to say his solution.Due to the turmoil in his heart, the wings of his nose opened and closed, and his breath became obviously heavy.
"Yeah, take the bottom out and solve the problem from the source. Director Ma, if you can look at the problem this way, you have made progress." Randy nodded slightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and praised the suggestion from the bottom of his heart.
Ma Yibo has been the director of the Secretary-General's Office for more than five years. From a beginner who is not very familiar with the officialdom to a qualified politician with long sleeves and dancing skills, it has not been a long time, and his learning ability is not weak. It is more commendable to use.
"Then... I'm going to make an appointment with Chairman Gao?" Sudden high praise from his immediate superior, Ma Yibo didn't feel complacent, nor did he pretend to be low-key and modest, he put all the credit on the leader and continued to discuss the matter.
This is one of the gains he has gained from being the office director for more than 5 years. Randy not only looks very different from Chinese people, but also has different habits.I don't like to show my loyalty verbally, and I pay more attention to actual work performance.
"No, he is more urgent than us, so wait a little longer. You go to Director Liu Quanyou's house first. I just got the news that Ms. Zhou Jinlan passed away due to illness this morning. On my behalf, I would like to express my personal condolences, and by the way, talk to Director Liu Discuss a suitable time, and then I will take all the ministers to formally express condolences.
Ms. Zhou was a hero of the alliance, but she didn't get the treatment she deserved before she died. We didn't do a good job. We didn't know her physical condition for so many years. It was a serious mistake and it would be chilling!You must fully grasp this matter, and you can no longer be negligent! "
But Randy's decision was a 180-degree reversal from his attitude just now. He rejected the proposal very simply, and then changed the subject and talked about another unexpected incident.The expression is very sad, the tone is very sad, and the attitude is very firm.
"Hey, Deputy Director Wang, seal up copies of all the work reports of the New Safety Zone Management Office Lian Chunyu since he took office, and send them to my office right away." It wasn't until Ma Yibo left the government building in a daze that Randy didn't know what to do. Turning away from the window, he picked up the intercom phone on the table.
The Secretary-General's Office may sound small, but it is actually not small.It undertakes the daily affairs between the secretary-general and various departments. In addition to one director, there are six deputy directors under him, each with several clerks, corresponding to one or several fixed government departments.
Ma Yibo was not the veteran of the office, and before he came, Deputy Director Wang was the most promising candidate to become the office director.Her name is Wang Jiayu, from Jiangxi, a sophomore in Beiyou University, majoring in digital media and design.
Although Wang Jiayu is better than Ma Yibo in terms of qualifications and academic qualifications, she has a fatal weakness. She got married early and was too family-oriented, so she couldn't devote herself to work wholeheartedly.
Gradually, he was overtaken by Ma Yibo, who was more aggressive, or was more motivated. In the end, he had to condescend to the position of deputy director. For this reason, the relationship between the two has always been tense. .
It is said that Hong Tao is a chicken thief, he is not at ease with anyone, and has no sense of trust.In fact, Randy did not make much progress in this regard. There were two serious leaks in the office, and he told the reformists about the tacit understanding between him and the royalists, which made him very passive.
Is there an inner ghost and who is the inner ghost?He couldn't produce any evidence, and he couldn't let the Ministry of Internal Affairs intervene in the investigation, so he could only let it go.Just now, Ma Yibo's suggestion and the slightly heavy breathing when he made the suggestion immediately made him vigilant, and at the same time his back felt cold.
If Ma Yibo was an insider, then the problem would be serious, if he could interfere with the work of the entire secretary general's office, wouldn't it mean that his every move was in the eyes of others, and there was no secret at all.
But whether Ma Yibo is suspected or not, there is still no evidence.This time Randy doesn't intend to bear it anymore, he wants to lure the snake out of the hole, take advantage of the chaos of the strike in the new security zone, and carefully observe the every move of this confidant.
In addition, it is necessary to find a temporary assistant who can take over Ma Yibo's work and will not be affected by him.After much deliberation, Wang Jiayu became the best candidate.These two people have had a long-standing grudge, and they are the least likely to be in the same boat.As long as it is something that is not good for Ma Yibo, Wang Jiayu will definitely do it without hesitation, and there is no need to worry about being perfunctory.
"Hey, Zhang Ke? Don't, don't, I'm not your uncle. If I can't find an illegal radio station, I should call you uncle! Director Zhang, your awesome military development research office, check an illegal radio station Is it that difficult?
Tell the truth, does this station have anything to do with you?If so, at least you should say hello to me. I haven't changed my attitude from the beginning to the end when it comes to your grandpa Hong, but how do you treat me? "
Putting down the internal line, Randy thought for a while and picked up the external line. After connecting, he immediately sprayed it on with gritted teeth, aiming directly at Zhang Ke's personal qualities, which was very embarrassing.
On the issue of the strike, more than half of the people in the alliance government believed that it had something to do with Hong Tao, but they couldn't find evidence, and knowing it was useless.In the same way, this illegal radio station that appeared suddenly and had a large coverage was naturally inseparable from Hong Tao.
During the rescue team period, this Captain Hong showed strong hands-on ability in radio and communication. In a short time, he set up a radio relay station in the Flying Tigers, allowing the Pingnan Army, the rescue team and the Flying Tigers to pass through. Radio waves are closely linked together.
But in Randy's view, such a complicated project cannot be completed by Hong Tao alone, especially the problem of equipment cannot be solved.It is not ten years ago now, and there are all kinds of intact communication equipment all over the place.If you want to build a high-power radio station in a safe area in a short period of time, the most likely source of its key equipment is Zhang Ke.
Then Zhang Ke will secretly collude with Hong Tao to embarrass himself?Randy thinks it is too possible. This seemingly harmless little fat man is very deeply influenced by Hong Tao, and his style of acting is similar.
Usually, only one side is shown, and the rest of the face is deeply hidden, and no one can guess what he is thinking.The only person who could resonate with Zhang Ke was Hong Tao.
"Uncle Lan, you really wronged me. All the telecommunications staff in the laboratory, except those who maintain the normal operation of the equipment, have been sent out, and they scan almost 24 hours a day, but so far they are still empty-handed.
If you don't believe me, you can ask Minister Jiao.In order to find that radio station as soon as possible, his old man has ordered the use of Air Force aircraft and a battalion of the Air Force Regiment to assist.
Now the only thing that can be confirmed is that the transmitting antenna of the illegal radio station is hidden in the Taihang Mountains, which is a zombie-controlled area. A large number of troops need to be mobilized to conduct a ground search. "
Zhang Ke did not lie, he gave Hong Tao an individual communication system in private, but the power of that thing really can't be used as a radio station.Moreover, judging from the location of the signal launch, it was too far away from the new safety zone, and it was absolutely impossible to take care of both with the ability of Hong Tao and the migrants from Xinjiang Province alone.
"...Tell me the truth, did he set up this radio station?"
Randy was surprised by the answer, so he didn't need to ask Jiao Qiao anymore. Zhang Ke didn't need to open his eyes and talk nonsense on such an important issue.But to say that the illegal radio station has nothing to do with Hong Tao, Randy felt that it insulted his IQ.
"Ninety percent... Ninety percent! Uncle Lan, you should understand that Grandpa Hong is not an ordinary person, and the methods he comes up with are often beyond anyone's guess. I am afraid that he is the only one who can freely enter and exit the zombie-controlled area." One, others can't help even if they want to.
But it’s useless to know, none of us can figure out how to achieve remote control, unless the zombies can listen to his orders, and at the same time, the zombies can talk and operate radio equipment... Do you think it is possible? "
Chapter 1041 Four Stooges
Talking about the equipment problem, Zhang Ke was even more helpless.He respected Hong Tao very much, one could even say he admired him.But as long as young people have the urge to surpass their predecessors, he is also unavoidable in this respect.
But when they met this time, Zhang Ke, who originally planned to secretly compete for his true skills, soon fell into a deep inferiority complex.After ten years of hard work and hard work, the gap is still so big that there is no hope at all.
"...Can the air crew airdrop at a fixed point, clean up the zombies in a small area, and quickly find the transmitting antenna?" Randy was also silent. It's no big secret that Hong Tao is immune to the zombie virus, and there are even rumors among the homeless people in the safe zone. .
But if you want to say who can control the zombies, make them speak, or even teach the zombies to learn complex radio communication technology, you have to round your arms and slap his big mouth left and right.
Stop talking nonsense, if Hong Tao could have this function, he wouldn't have to come back alone, sneakily instigating immigrants from Xinjiang and provinces to make trouble, and forcing the alliance government to make fundamental changes.
He can completely train a special team composed of blue devils. Any human base is a piece of paper in front of this group of monsters who can accept human commands, move quickly, tirelessly, invulnerable, have strange movements, and are contagious. Turn the hours and it will be destroyed by raid.
At that time, Hong Tao can take this army of zombies on foot across the entire Eurasian continent, sweeping away all the survivor bases. In less than ten years, he will be the leader of the earth. He can plan the future however he wants.
"Our detection equipment cannot be close to the mountainous area, and cannot provide accurate coordinates to the air crew. At present, we can only hope for the detection of the Air Force, but I personally think it is unlikely.
There are many transmission towers from the old world left in the local area. They are all ready-made antenna bases. Without professional equipment for triangulation, it is basically impossible to find them only by aerial reconnaissance. "It's a pity that Randy's idea was completely rejected by Zhang Ke from a technical level, and the investigation of illegal radio stations fell into a strange circle.
For accurate positioning, the radio detection equipment of the Military Development Research Office must be transported into the Taihang Mountains.To transport equipment and personnel in, a large number of troops must be dispatched to thoroughly clean up the zombies in that mountainous area.
However, the alliance currently has no such plan. Whether it is worth spending such a huge amount of manpower and material resources for an illegal radio station still needs to be finally studied and decided by various departments and councils.
"...You said that if I went to talk to him in private, would there be any results?" Randy knew better than Zhang Ke how much time and energy it would take to go through this process, and it couldn't be resolved in ten days and a half months.
If the strike drags on for too long, after the coalition government has lost all face, whether there are illegal radio broadcasts is not so critical.At that time, there will be bigger troubles coming one after another. If you want to avoid it, the best way is to let Hong Tao stop.
Compromising with refugees is as difficult as re-planning a major military operation.Some people will be in favor, such as the royalists; some will be against, such as the reformers; and some will wait and see, such as the centrists.It is difficult to unify the thoughts of these people, even if it is only temporarily.
But as the head of the coalition government, the secretary-general himself has to solve this problem. The only way now is to reach a private understanding with Hong Tao, and let everyone give in to each other and show some sympathy.
"Uncle Lan, can I say something I shouldn't say?"
Zhang Ke couldn't decide for Hong Tao, let alone calculate the possibility of a private peace.Seeing that Randy has been pushed to a desperate situation, he can't stand aside and watch the excitement.After all, I have been taken care of by others, more than once or twice, every year or two, this is the time to repay the favor, and I can't shrink back if I am a man.
"No! You are engaged in intelligence work, so you should understand that the telephone line is not absolutely safe. How about this, after work, let's go to the Houhai small courtyard to have a meal with the couple. I can't let me carry all the troubles alone. Everyone divides It's reasonable!"
Randy answered very simply, but he didn't completely reject Zhang Ke's kindness, but changed the way to meet and chat.The location was chosen very cleverly. Going to Jiao Qiao's house to eat and chat, in addition to taking advantage of Zhang Ke's excuses, there was also an attempt to divert trouble.
In the courtyard of Houhai, under the trellis and on the stone table, there are plates of mutton slices, tripe, fish balls, and vegetables surrounded by a copper hot pot with flames in the middle.
But there was no joy on the faces of the four people sitting around the table. Zhang Ke lowered his head and wiped his glasses, Jiao Qiao stared at the hot pot with a cigarette in his mouth, Lin Na half looked up at the flowers on the wooden shelf...
Hong Tao originally planted grapes there, but after being abandoned for several years, they survived and grew lushly, producing dozens of catties of fruit every year.After the small courtyard was repaired, the grapes were still preserved, but she shoveled them after only two years.
It's not to avoid looking at things and thinking about others, but the children in the family are often scared to cry by the big green fleshy worms with thick fingers on them, and the couple don't know how to take care of the grapes so that they don't grow worms, so they should just plant vines instead.Although there are no fruits to eat, you can enjoy the flowers for several months, mainly because of the lack of pain of repelling insects.
"The water is boiling, let's eat the meat. Why don't you ask the children to come together? I have specially sent someone to get this good lamb from the north of the city. It's getting fat this season." Only Randy lifted the pot lid from time to time with chopsticks have a look.
"My surname is Lan, you still want to use these few plates of meat to take care of our family! I heard that you are coming, Lin Na has already asked Lan Yuer to take the child away, so just say what you want to say, don't come here. pretend."
Jiao Qiao threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out with his foot, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.Lin Na always said to be calm, and she has studied hard for several years. It can't be said that she has made no progress, but she still hasn't learned the truth.Looking at Randy's smirking face, he wanted to give him a punch.
Even if this meal can't be called a Hongmen Banquet, it's because the weasel has no good intentions to give the chicken New Year's greetings!If you think about it with your big toe, you will know what he is here for.Chu Ting accepted Hong Tao's complaint, and before noon, it had already spread among high-level officials. As the secretary-general of the alliance, she must bear the brunt of it.
"I didn't come here for Chu Ting's business. She did the right thing, but it's too childish to try to force the government to compromise in this way. Today I talked with Zhang Ke on the phone about the illegal radio station. He I think it is very likely that our captain Hong did it, but he can't get close to the signal emission area in a short time.
He still has something to say to me, it's not safe on the phone, so I suggested to have a meal at your house.In fact, more than half of the dishes are bought by me. I only drink your wine, so don't be so stingy, right, sister-in-law? "
Facing Jiaoqiao's stinky face and unwelcoming attitude, Randy didn't mind at all, and picked up a chopstick of mutton and put it in the pot.Counting his employment experience at the US embassy, he has been in China for 12 years.
Now he speaks fluent Chinese, uses a lot of cursing allusions and witticisms freely, and is more familiar with the Chinese way of dealing with people.The only thing I don't like is Chinese food, except shabu-shabu and kebabs.
"If you are here for this matter, my opinion is to stop as soon as possible. There is only one way to win him, not to be led by the nose, and to find another way. You can ask Lu Yejiangnan how he was beaten step by step back then. The person who introduced the trap was full of confidence before he woke up.
In terms of deception, the few of us together are no match for him.Since they can't compare, why bother to fight hard in this respect.Can you change your thinking, first figure out what he wants, and then make a targeted plan, the effect may be better. "
Lin Na and Jiao Qiao all abstained from voting on the decision to block the new safe zone, neither supporting nor opposing, or in other words, not deciding whether to support or oppose.After these few days of observation, Lin Na seems to have a new attitude, and she tends not to engage in direct confrontation.
"We talked about similar issues, and Lu Yejiangnan was also there at the time, and his appeal was actually only one, to let the league change some of its previous practices and further improve the existing rule system.
Specifically how to change and improve, we didn’t talk about it that time, and we can’t talk about it.As the secretary-general of the league, I can't do what he wants at all, and you should also understand this.On many key issues, neither party can win a majority without compromise.Want to change, easier said than done! "
Chapter 1042 Four Stooges 2
Regarding Lin Na's suggestion, Randy listened to it, but it was almost as if he didn't listen to it. He leaned back and drank a big glass first.Everyone understands the truth, but when it comes to the implementation level, it's all messed up.
Coincidentally, he happened to be the supreme leader of the executive agency. Over the years, he had been looking for a balance point all the time, and had to make decisions against his will from time to time.But the result was not ideal. I was neither liked by the royalists nor supported by the reformers. I felt bitter.
"Hey, my wine is not plain water. Who can afford to drink like this! Don't be so pitiful, whoever wakes up early if you don't want to make a profit! If you didn't secretly protect the interests of the group behind you, you wouldn't be able to go to today!"
Jiao Qiao had no sympathy for Randy's complaints, but felt sorry for the bottle of old world liquor, grabbed it and put it by his feet, and began to retort.When he and Lin Na decided not to help either side, they planned to take Randy with them, but this guy refused after thinking for several days.
He was reluctant to part with the welfare of the leaders of tens of thousands of foreign survivors, and planned to rely on this power to dominate the political arena.The wind and rain didn't stop coming, but more than half of it poured on his head.What is it called?Lifting a rock and shooting yourself in the foot, you deserve it!
"Old Jiao, you can't say that. Randy has natural shortcomings. If he can't maintain his basic position, he might have been kicked out of the house like Liu Quanyou and his wife. I heard that Sister Zhou left at noon, and I felt strange. delicious...
Alas, we are all old, and we are no longer the high-spirited rescue team of the past.On the contrary, that old bastard has always lived happily and happily, God is really blind! "
Hearing her husband bring up the unbearable past again, Lin Na reached out to take the wine bottle and put it on Ran Diman, intending to change the topic.As a result, he suddenly became emotional while he was talking, and he picked up a cucumber and stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it hard, so as to hide the expression of gnashing his teeth.
The ancients said it well, it is not that a family does not enter a house.On the issue of how to treat Hong Tao, she and Jiao Qiao have more and more of the same opinion. Open your mouth as an old spy and shut your mouth as an old bastard. There are very few positive comments.
It can be said that I understand it very well, but it is also very unfamiliar. When I am fine, I always feel half-assed, and when I get to the critical point, I am suppressed in all directions.Every time I think of that person, I feel depressed, and I am almost depressed.
"I have the ability to say it face to face..." But someone disagreed and protested in a low voice.
"Boy, how can the two of us treat you worse than him? Isn't it just teaching you to fly a plane, drive a tank, play with a radio, wrestle... Don't forget that he will kick your ass if he has nothing to do, and make you stand against the wall! No Conscience, and Gou Chenzhi, both of you are white-eyed wolves!"
This can be regarded as stabbing a hornet's nest. Lin Na slapped Zhang Ke on the back of the head with her hands rounded.
It is not without reason that Lin Na is so angry. After Hong Tao faked his death, He Wanjun has been taking care of Chu Qiu's daily life, while Lan Yuer, Zhang Ke, and Gou Chenzhi have become fringe figures overnight from a future that has attracted much attention. .
It's not that someone wants to neglect them on purpose, but the adults are busy with things every day. Except for that idler Hong Tao, who has time to coax a few children to play.
At this time, Lin Na took the initiative to spare time, and went to watch them do their homework when they had nothing to do, and took care of their daily necessities by the way.Later, there was a small courtyard, so I simply took them back and lived there for several years.After so much love and care, the result is that an old monster who has not shown his face for ten years is not as beloved by children, and no one will be happy.
If Zhang Ke was alone, he could still blame the child for being ignorant. In fact, Gou Chenzhi also had this kind of virtue. On the surface, Aunt Lin called her affectionately, nodding her head and not talking back.But in his bones, he always thought about that old bastard, and used Lan Yuer's relationship many times to inquire about Hong Tao's details from the Ministry of Internal Affairs in violation of regulations.
"Hey, hey, he's talking and fighting. He's not a child anymore, he's an officer of the alliance. At least he should save some face in front of outsiders." The slap was quite heavy, although Zhang Ke didn't say anything, But Jiao Qiao had to come forward to smooth things over for his wife's gaffe.
"I'm not a white-eyed wolf. If Grandpa Hong intends to harm you, I will definitely be the first to stand up and oppose it. But when it comes to the development of the alliance, I think Grandpa Hong's method is better.
Now you and Uncle Jiao are in the prime of life, with enough energy and physical strength to cope with external pressure.But the laws of nature cannot be reversed. After five, ten, or 15 years, one day your two bodies will go downhill, and sooner or later you will hand over the power in your hands.
According to the alliance rules, Uncle Lan's secretary-general can only be re-elected twice. If the next secretary-general no longer nominates you and Uncle Jiao as ministers, he will also hand over his power.
At that time, whether the successor can continue to stand firm between the two factions and act as the most critical weight is very uncertain.If the military power is seized by the reformers again, the alliance will become a tool that some people can speak out in a short period of time, and most people will become leeks that can be harvested infinitely.
Your descendants and I may still be privileged, but I don't want to be that person.Grandpa Hong said that if he only wants to enjoy himself, there is no need to save others. He can live a better life himself.
Now it is our turn to choose. If we follow the development trend of the alliance, not only will we not be able to save others, but we will also kill many people.Not to be alarmist, I have personally seen a zombie dog commanded by a living corpse in Xinyang.
If there is another wave of zombies, will the refugees still stand with us as they did back then, and continue to resist the zombie attack?I don't need to say that I already have the answer to this question, they will run away without hesitation, who would do their best for someone who rides on their head all the year round and domineering. "
It doesn't matter to Lin Na's beating and scolding Zhang Ke at all, and he doesn't feel humiliated.If you only count the time and extent, Lin Na and Jiao Qiao took care of themselves much longer and more meticulously than Hong Tao.
But accounts cannot be calculated in this way. People have thoughts. If we only calculate food, drink and clothing, we will not return to our ancestors and animals.People live a lifetime, not just eating and passing on genes. Even if no one can tell what the meaning of life is, everyone can give it different goals.
In this regard, Hong Tao is a spiritual enlightenment teacher, who taught him how to think independently, understand the world and the essence of human beings, and at the same time put forward a beautiful wish.It is hoped that with the help of the ravages of the zombie virus, a social system more suitable for human life can be redrawn on a blank sheet of paper.
Although this wish seems elusive, the probability of success is gradually decreasing over time, but Zhang Ke wants to try.The reason is simple, ten years, all he sees is dirty, the contrast is too strong.
"...Yeah, we have been fooling ourselves all the time, and no child has seen it through. Unless you can live forever, anything you hold in your hands is temporary. Is it worth paying too much for these things? ?”
With the end of Zhang Ke's long speech, the small courtyard fell into a brief silence. Except for the soup in the copper hot pot kept boiling, none of the four people spoke.It was Randy who spoke first. He came here today to seek a way out, and he must get a clear statement from Lin Na and Jiao Qiao.
"Who can guarantee that his set of things will be better than it is now?" Lin Na heard the deep meaning in Randy's tone, and immediately refuted it.In fact, she did not quite agree with Hong Tao's proposition, otherwise she would not have chosen to sit on the sidelines on the issue of Liu Quanyou and Zhou Jinlan.
The reason is simpler. She cannot easily give up her children's privileges as a mother. No matter where these privileges come from, whether they are reasonable or not, they are worth protecting before they need to pay too much.
Randy was stopped by the question, biting his chopsticks and lost in thought.He and Lin Na had similar concerns.Change is okay, but if the loss is too great, neither collective nor individual is worth it.Throughout history, there are examples of changes in various periods. It seems that the losses are not small, which makes people feel palpitating.
"No one can guarantee it, and Grandpa Hong himself can't guarantee it. But you can try and make mistakes step by step. As long as you control the speed and scale, even if you make a mistake, there will be no big consequences. If you get it right, it will be a huge harvest. The cost-return calculation is worth the investment." But Zhang Ke took over the topic and proposed another way of thinking.
Chapter 1043 Four Stooges 3
If a person has cancer that is spreading, there are usually three types of treatment.
The first type is relatively simple and crude, surgery, to cut off the cancerous tissue, and cut it wherever it spreads.It is possible to cut cleanly and kill all the cancer cells.It is also possible that the incision was not clean, and the patient suffered a lot and died in the end.
The second is more ruthless, chemotherapy, which uses the method of killing one thousand enemies and harming eight hundred, killing cancer cells and normal cells together.If the patient's physical fitness is excellent, it might be all right if he can carry it to the end.Otherwise, it is still dead.
