[Chapter title number is wrong, but does not affect the content]

Julie took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "Didn't I already say that as long as the information is sufficient, the price is naturally not a problem. The problem is how do I judge the weight and authenticity of the information, so this You need to provide more information."

"No, you have to pay first before you can get the information. This is the rule." Mr. Z retorted.

Julie shook her head and said: "Mr. Z, you have to understand that I am not another intelligence officer, but a reporter. As a reporter, I must know the weight of this news in order to judge its value. In addition, I judge your What I got should be some satellite pictures. I believe that there are quite a few people who get it. It won’t take long for these pictures to be exposed, and they will be worthless by then. In addition, I also believe that mastering this set of pictures You are not the only one, and I may get it from other places, but you will get nothing."

"No, only I have this information, you can't get it from other places, and I'm your only choice." Mr. Z obviously didn't believe Julie's words.

Julie smiled at this and said: "Mr. Z, you should understand that everyone who engages in intelligence knows that there will never be a secret hidden in a safe in this circle. Sooner or later, there will be a moment of sunshine. To be honest, I have already Knowing what the photos in your hand are, then it will be easy to find. You can continue to buy them on the black market, or you can contact certain institutions to get these satellite photos at a low price from them. So, from the current point of view , I am definitely your only chance."

Seeing that Mr. Z was hesitant after hearing her words, Julie added a bit of anger and said, "Don't worry, we need these photos as a basis for our publication, so it doesn't matter if I read it or not, it won't Affect subsequent bargaining purchases."

Mr. Z hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and took out a stack of photos from his pocket and handed them to Julie.As for Julie, as if she had found a treasure, she immediately took a closer look at the photos. Mr. Z took a sip of water and said to Julie who was looking at the photos: "From the photos, they should also be developing and testing this kind of drone. And it seems that their drone development and testing projects are progressing." It went very smoothly. To some extent, it has even surpassed the UAV developed by General Atomics in the old America. And I found an aviation expert. After looking at the photos, he said that this The new UAV has already conducted a test flight, and has also carried out a test of the weapon system. In terms of overall progress, it has surpassed Laomei's. I think that once this information is published, it will probably become the headlines of major media immediately. Bar."

After seeing these photos, Julie was very happy.But in front of this Mr. Z, she had to suppress this excitement, and then showed a very flat expression to Mr. Z: "Your information is good, I want it, let's talk about the price. "

Mr. Z immediately became excited when he heard the words, and then said to Julie: "One hundred thousand dollars, all these photos belong to you, I believe it will definitely be worth the money."

Upon hearing this, Julie shook her head with a very sophisticated smile and said, "No, I will only give you two thousand dollars."

"Impossible, one hundred thousand dollars, this is my bottom line." Mr. Z immediately vetoed it.

Julie shook her head and said, "Two thousand dollars, this is the highest price I'll give you. Who knows how much you sold this information before me."

"Damn it, you are the first media I came into contact with. Since you are not insincere, then give me the photo and go ask other media." Mr. Z stretched out his hand.

Seeing this, Julie avoided Mr. Z's hand and said with a smile: "If you can give me an exclusive, and promise not to sell it to others, then I can give you five thousand dollars."

"No, one hundred thousand dollars, I promise to give you the exclusive, and this photo is only these, there can be no second copy." Mr. Z insisted.

Afterwards, the two sides had several confrontations. For Julie, she was bound to obtain this information.So she also made some concessions on this price, and finally got the information as she wished at a price of [-] US dollars.As a reporter, she knew the weight of this information, so she had to rush back now, send these photos back to the headquarters, and then publish them in time to avoid being preempted by her opponents.

And just after Mr. Z and Julie left the cafe, a telescope was put away in the window of a building not far away.One of them, a middle-aged white man wearing a shirt, smiled and said, "The task is done, we can call it a day."

"Mr. Wilson, I can't understand." A young man in his twenties who looked a bit immature said with some doubts.

"Charlie, you've just arrived, and you'll gradually understand." Wilson picked up his windbreaker and said.

"No, Mr. Wilson, I need your explanation, so that I can understand and know what I should be grateful for, instead of thinking about doing nothing now." Charlie took out a small notebook and prepared to record.

Wilson took the notebook in Charlie's hand and said to him: "First of all, you have to understand that we must never leave any clues in our business. All things are only safe if they are recorded in their own minds, not records. On a notebook that can be snatched by others at any time."

"I see." Charlie quickly took the notebook and stuffed it into his bag, then looked at Wilson seriously, waiting for his explanation.

Wilson was very helpless when he saw this, but he still said: "Everything you saw today was specially arranged by us. First of all, the information they traded was actually disclosed to that man by us. He is actually just He is a newcomer who has just entered the industry for a few days, and this is the only way to let him relax his vigilance and facilitate our planning. And that sexy chick is called Julie, and she is a reporter from a famous defense magazine in the United Kingdom. We want What I did was to pass this information to this woman through the hands of this man. The purpose is to let this woman report the content of this information and then publish it.”

"Then what's the purpose of this? It's just some photos." Charlie puzzled.

"Those are some photos, but they are photos of an advanced drone that * is developing in China. I believe that after these photos are released, the whole world will be boiling, and this is our purpose. Looking at Charlie's half-understood With an understanding expression, Wilson continued: "Currently *country is developing rapidly, both economically and militarily.And what's worse is that because of some regional and international differences, as well as ideological opposition, the relationship between the old United States and * is very bad.And in order to curb its rapid development momentum and to facilitate related actions with us in the surrounding areas, we need a reason.The exposure of these photos can further add fuel to the previous "China threat theory", so that it will be passive, or squeezed out and isolated in this region and even in the world. "

"And in this way, this just achieved our goal, and also found a reason for our definite action in the next stage, do you understand?" Wilson smiled.

"It turned out to be like this!" Charlie suddenly realized.
