Speeding on the highway, Jiang Chen held onto the steering wheel, but his mind was thinking about what happened at noon.
"That's a shame. We could've avoided unpleasantness …"
Does this mean they're ready to make a move?
Jiang Chen frowned. He didn't understand why the UA embassy was suddenly so interested in him.
Could it be that the program to be used in the development of "Dragon II" was discovered by UA intelligence and Future Technology was the one responsible for the actual research and development?
When he thought about this, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
To what extent did this rogue country infiltrate this place?
In the timeline of the wasteland, a similar program would be developed in 2020. Although the history of the wasteland differed greatly from that of this world, and the speed and focus of technological research and development were also quite different, the general concept of development would not change. It was just like the third technological revolution, which was led by the advancement of computer technology.
The next 50 years would be led by artificial intelligence. With the birth of the basic artificial intelligence database as the climax, the fourth technological revolution was ignited. With the introduction of the intermediate artificial intelligence restriction bill as the end, this immature technological revolution was put to an end. After that, it would be the fifth technological revolution led by the breakthrough in space technology. But that would be a long time in the future … if Jiang Chen, the traveler that connected the two worlds, did not exist.
Without any surprises, Zhongxin High Tech should be able to complete the design of this software with its own independent research and development capabilities. In history, the development cycle of a cutting-edge high-altitude drone similar to Dragon II was not long.
Now that he thought about it, he was afraid that it was not just a technical problem that had not been solved yet. If someone could leak this information, there was no reason they wouldn't use some method to obstruct the research …
Jiang Chen suddenly raised his eyebrows.
Speaking of this, he had never thought about a problem.
In that world, the Pan-Asia Cooperation (PAC), the Soviet Union (CCCP), and NATO were the three pillars of existence. But in this world, PAC and CCCP did not exist at all.
There was no need to think about CCCP. A series of upheavals in Eastern Europe destroyed the last trace of the Soviet Union. The collapse of the Berlin Wall completely pushed the alliance into the abyss and announced the collapse of the Yalta system. In 1991, the struggling CCCP finally announced its dissolution and split into 15 independent sovereign countries.
The fate of PAC was even more intriguing. It never existed in the first place. Moreover, judging from the current territorial disputes and geopolitical situation in Asia, this organization shouldn't be born in the next fifty years. The alliance originated from mutual trust in politics, but unfortunately, this trust did not exist from the very beginning.
On the other hand, NATO was enjoying the scenery. Although the media continued to advocate that NATO countries led by the United States could not extricate themselves from the quagmire of the Middle East dispute, and European countries were affected by the Greek debt crisis and refugee flows, living in dire straits. But he had to admit that NATO was terrifyingly strong in both economic output and military strength.
But when did it start?
In other words, when did history start to diverge?
Just as he thought about this seemingly irrelevant question, his phone suddenly rang.
He took out his Bluetooth headset and pressed the call button.
"Hello?"
"Do you remember me? Oriental handsome boy. " Although it was a teasing tone, Jiang Chen could hear that this sentence was squeezed out from between her teeth.
It was Mandarin with a Russian accent. Although the other party didn't say her name, her identity was already obvious.
"Of course I remember, beautiful Miss Natasha. What do you need from me?" Jiang Chen smiled and replied nonchalantly.
KGB? Other than the time he tricked them in Kane, Jiang Chen couldn't think of any other interactions between them.
"There are a lot of things. Why don't you take a plane to Moscow? I still owe you a glass of vodka. We can sit at the bar and talk, "Natasha said provocatively.
"Although this proposal is tempting, unfortunately, I'm afraid I can't make it. After all, I can't even afford a plane ticket now. "When Jiang Chen said this, he didn't have the slightest hint of regret on his face.
"If you really want to come, we can provide you with free and safe entry channels," Natasha said dubiously.
"Even the KGB is interested in me? That would be an honor. "Jiang Chen didn't accept her proposal.
"It's the Kremlin that's interested in you." Natasha paused for a moment, changed to a seductive tone, and continued, "Are you really not going to consider it? Han men are very popular with Russian girls. "
Artificial intelligence would become the trend of development in the next few decades and even lead the fourth technological revolution. It was a foreseeable future. And the value of artificial intelligence in the military field was even more immeasurable. When Future 1.0 was first released, it received Russia's attention, but after they realized its military value was limited, they moved their attention away.
But who would have thought that Future Technology would have the ability to be used in the military field.
Even Jiang Chen didn't expect it. He originally wanted to contribute to the motherland before he left the country, and at the same time, provide protection for Future Technology's business in Hua. But the result was that before he even submitted the program, the information was already leaked. It made him seem to be in high demand.
Of course, there were a lot of companies like Google and IBM in the world that mastered dark technology. Future Technology was only one of them. It wasn't enough to make all the forces take action, but at least it had the value to recruit them.
"For example, you?" Jiang Chen joked.
"If you can convince the team behind you to settle in Russia, I don't mind becoming your woman." Natasha wasn't joking.
Pfft.
Jiang Chen suddenly burst out laughing.
"I don't think it's funny." Natasha's voice had a hint of anger in it.
"If I really wanted to do something to you, when I was in Kane, I would've tried all kinds of positions on you."
Jiang Chen's joking tone made Natasha furious. Her teeth clenched as she wanted to drag him over from the other end of the phone and beat him up. Of course, she only thought about it.
Natasha took a deep breath as she tried to calm down the anger in her heart. Then she continued in an undertone.
"I believe we've already shown enough sincerity. If you're willing to cooperate with us, we'll provide you with the most favorable terms — "
"Before the coordinates are exposed, we're very safe. We don't need to enter any cages in exchange for protection. The only person in trouble is me, the agent pushed to the front desk. "Jiang Chen shrugged and said in a relaxed tone.
"It looks like Mr. Jiang, the agent, isn't afraid?" Natasha mocked.
"Because there's no reason to be afraid."
To Jiang Chen's words, Natasha smiled noncommittally and said in a joking tone.
"It looks like you still don't fully understand your situation. Dragon II, because of your program, will be deployed in the South Sea ahead of schedule. The strategic balance will be broken, and the CIB's hard work on Zhongxin technology will be wasted. "
Hearing this, Jiang Chen let out a sigh.
[So it was the work of a spy? How could a mere software have so many problems? Even the entire Flying Dragon II was stuck at the last moment.
"So?"
"It's impossible to waste resources on a harmless technology team, but if this organization interferes with UA's national interest, then the Capitol has a reason to punish you. If I'm not wrong, the UA Embassy should've contacted you already, "Natasha said with a smile.
"I rejected him," Jiang Chen said nonchalantly.
"Then you might be in trouble. It's foreseeable that at least before the program is delivered, your face will be on the CIB mission briefing. "
Jiang Chen paused for a moment before he smiled. "Why don't you just tell the intelligence agency? I'm just a businessman and I don't have law enforcement power."
"The KGB and the General Staff Department don't have an information exchange mechanism. As to why I'm telling you, can't you see that I'm trying to be nice to you? "Natasha mocked.
"Then what do you think, as an agent, should I do next?" Jiang Chen asked nonchalantly.
"The first priority is to force you to hand over the source code and forcibly transfer you to the aircraft carrier. The second priority is to shoot you to warn the organization behind you not to interfere with the game between the superpowers, and at the same time, cut off the only channel of cooperation between you and Hua. "
Since it was through an agent to contact the outside world, he only needed to kill the agent.
Although Future Technology was worth recruiting, it was far from enough to negotiate with the Capitol.
"Then what do you think I should do?" Jiang Chen teased.
"Stop immediately and withdraw from this project."
"And then join you?"
"If you don't want to lean to the UA and don't want to hang yourself on this tree, we are your only choice." A smile flashed across Natasha's face. In her view, Jiang Chen had no reason to reject her.
Under the surveillance of the General Staff Department, he alone had no chance of leaving the country. But with the help of the KGB, as long as he was willing to cooperate, the so-called restriction of leaving the country was not a problem.
"Do you think I'm afraid of the CIB?" Jiang Chen said emotionlessly.
"There are very few people who aren't afraid when they target them."
"Then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. I happen to be one of them." So what if he was a CIB agent? Disregarding the fact that they were on Han's territory, Ayesha's anti-reconnaissance ability was nothing to worry about.
If it was a frontal confrontation, he could deal with it with his own strength.
"Hungry Wolf." To Jiang Chen's confidence, Natasha only gave a brief name.
"Mhmm?"
"Gris O 'Sullivan, a senior CIB agent who was active on the battlefield in Iraq. More than 47 Iraqi officials died directly or indirectly in his hands. He was later assigned to the Anti-Terrorism Special Operations Team in Iraq. Have you heard of Laden? Although he was killed by a SEAL, he was the one who found him. There is information that he already faked his identity and headed to Wanghai. "
"Really? That's a big fish. "
"And it's a shark." Natasha laughed. "Don't die, I'm still waiting for you to come to Moscow."
