In a solemn conference room filled with lights, more than a dozen senior officials sat around the conference table with solemn expressions.
"How's the situation?"
The white-haired middle-aged man looked at another middle-aged man in military uniform on his right. "Have you made a plan with the Swedish authorities?"
"Yes, I personally contacted the Swedish police chief and agreed that on December 10, at the Karolinska Institute of Medicine in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, after the person from Blackwatch attends the Nobel Prize ceremony, we'll immediately surround this place and secretly arrest him for violating international law — illegally forming an army, smuggling arms, and committing war crimes. After the arrest, we'll extradite him to our Northern America as soon as possible to prevent the Chinese embassy from interfering."
The man in military uniform with a resolute face nodded with a very confident expression. "Don't worry, the FBI agents will also participate in the arrest. Even if he has wings, he can't escape."
"What about the Namibian side?"
The white-haired middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction and turned to look at the other side. A man with glasses who looked somewhat scholarly said, "Have you spoken to the Namibian authorities? Are they willing to cooperate with us and impose economic and commercial sanctions on Blackwatch? "
"I've informed them."
The bespectacled man shrugged. "I believe that after the arrest, there's a high probability that this company will collapse in an instant. Even if this company controls Namibia's economy, after the company collapses, why would they risk angering us and defy us?"
"Indeed."
The white-haired man nodded. "But the Ministry of Foreign Affairs must still be prepared. After the arrest of that person that day, you must come out to clarify as soon as possible and control international public opinion. Spread all the evidence we've created. Major media such as CNN must also follow the trend closely and prove that we have a good reason to do so."
"We're ready."
The minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also quickly responded.
"Then now, the most important thing is to find a way to get all kinds of technology from this company as soon as possible."
The white-haired man sent out several lists. "Although this technology has been cracked by us, there are still some details that can be optimized. If we can get their technology, I believe we can do it. In addition, we also need to get these technologies from their company. Everyone can take a look."
As he spoke, the white-haired man distributed a copy of the form in his hand to everyone.
"The main ones are cancer-targeted drug manufacturing technology, Alzheimer's disease treatment technology, nano-electrode implantation technology, and various biological research technology … These are all things that we must get our hands on …"
"There's also their femtosecond laser holographic projection technology and brainwave control technology. We also need to get our hands on their electronic technology."
The other man said with a greedy expression.
"Of course."
The white-haired man laughed heartily and began to tidy up the reports in his hands. "These technologies must never be allowed to fall into the hands of other continents. Otherwise, it'll affect the international hegemony of Northern America in the Earth Federation. At the same time, this is also a blow to the Mainland. It'll be best if this prodigy is willing to work for us. If not, it'll be best if he disappears from this world. This will benefit everyone."
"That's right …"
Everyone nodded and smiled as if it was a matter of course. For a moment, the atmosphere in the venue was very lively.
Immediately, everyone's expressions and movements froze at this moment.
"What the hell is this?"
Looking at the post that was pinned at the top of the forum, the man sitting in front of the computer suddenly revealed a dumbfounded expression.
The man's name was Walter. He swore that he originally only wanted to log into the forum and ask for a number. He had already taken off his pants and prepared the toilet paper. However, he saw that on the forum home page of the world-famous website Portal, there was a pinned at the top with a red and bold title —
[Never in a million years would I have thought that the entire circle of friends is going crazy with this video. Watch it and quickly bookmark it or it'll be gone in a while!]
For the first time, Walter found that this seemingly ordinary title had such a huge appeal. He even suppressed the fire of desire in his heart and unconsciously opened this video...
Thus, he saw the above scene on the screen …
That white-haired man, was he not the vice president of Northern America? And that middle-aged man dressed like a soldier was clearly the Minister of Defense. In addition, there was the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of Commerce, and so on!
In other words, this meeting in the video turned out to be the highest meeting representing the central authority of Northern America?
Walter only felt that this world was too crazy, but it was not because of this meeting, but because the topic of this meeting turned out to be related to Blackwatch, which had been in the limelight recently!
"This video shows a group of people at the highest level of the Northern American government, like villains, discussing the details of the persecution of Blackwatch!"
Walter slapped his cheek hard, for fear that he was hallucinating, but after slapping, he gradually came to a realization that what he had just seen turned out to be all true.
"D * mn, once this video is exposed, those politicians are dead meat!"
Walter was panting heavily. He stood up and walked around. Then, he thought of something and quickly sat down again. He downloaded the video and opened his favorite YouTube, ready to upload the video!
However, as soon as he opened YouTube, Walter was suddenly dumbfounded.
This was because the pinned cover video on YouTube was also this, but the title on it had been changed...
[Shocking, after watching this video, all of humanity fell silent. Everyone, quickly repost it. If you don't, you're not human!]
As if he could not believe it, Walter quickly clicked on the video. Sure enough, it was the familiar image of the big bosses of the major departments of Northern America gathered together.
And under this video, there was already a huge uproar —
[This is democracy, this is seed oil, this is the Northern American Continent, Olly gave it to you!]
[Hahaha, look at the stupid faces of this group of senior officials, he really doesn't deserve to be the leader of this continent!]
[It's fake, right? Nowadays, the technology of face changing is so advanced, this must be fake!]
[Upstairs, continue to wash this video. This video has been reviewed by many special effects artists, there is no trace of post-processing at all, just wash it!]
[What the hell are these pigs doing? Since they're discussing such a secretive thing, why would they let this kind of video leak? Isn't this tarnishing the reputation of our Northern America?]
[God, I'm really disappointed, this world is too dark, how can they harm a kind person like this, it's just terrible!]
[What are the senior officials of Google and YouTube doing? Why would they allow this kind of video to be pinned on the homepage of the website? Are they trying to rebel against the White House??? D * mn, today is not April Fool's Day!]
...
Among the comments, there were those who were surprised, those who were cursing, and those who were sarcastic and sarcastic. For a moment, all kinds of people were present.
The number of views of this video on YouTube had reached 100 million in just an hour and it was still rising wildly. As the largest video website of the Earth Federation, YouTube's influence reached more than one hundred countries and more than two billion people around the world. The appearance of this video was like a Filipino diving team smashed into the calm water, instantly igniting global public opinion.
The entire Internet was in an uproar!
And this was only on the surface. In the depths of the Internet — in the dark web, there was a war that could not be seen with the smoke of gunpowder.
On this battlefield, the Northern American Network Command had long been wantonly beaten by a group of unknown hackers. This Network Command was a new generation of departments under the Department of Defense established a long time ago, the purpose of which was to defend the country against possible network attacks.
Unlike ordinary wars, the smoke and flames of war could not be seen in a cyber war, but it would still cause huge financial losses. This was because as modern society became more and more informative, many countries had long understood that once a country's network information was breached, the entire country's economy would be hit hard.
Now, this scene that they did not want to see was happening to Northern America.
At this time, the entire White House was in chaos. The middle-aged man in the general's uniform roared like a madman, cursing at the two men in the same uniform in front of him. "What is your Network Command doing, why haven't you taken all these videos down!"
"I'm very sorry, Sir Minister, our people are working hard..."
One of the men quickly defended himself when he finally raised his head. "But what's strange is that the other party has extremely powerful and coordinated network combat capabilities. They act in batches, but they can always combine at the last moment. Our people didn't have time to trace their IP before they were overwhelmed by their joint forces..."
"Useless, you're all useless pigs! All of you! "
The man in the military uniform shouted loudly, "Where's the senior management of YouTube, tell him to immediately stop the server operation, shut down the server, understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
The man quickly saluted, then then he thought for a moment and said with difficulty, "But it's not just YouTube, it's not just our Northern America, it's also on the websites of Europe, Asia, and even other countries around the world, there's this video at the top..."
"D * mn it! Find a way to get rid of him, don't we have the addresses of many hackers? Find them and see if they're participants, if not, let them join the defense war, quickly! "
The man in the military uniform was even more frantic because he understood that regardless of the final outcome of Northern America's war, his political career had come to an end.
No, it should be said that in addition to such a huge mistake, the entire senior management of the White House would have to take the blame and resign!
The white-haired man on the side was already gloomy, but he still said reluctantly, "The most important thing now isn't to take down this video, but to guide public opinion, tell them that this video is fake..."
"Fake?"
The man in the military uniform looked at the white-haired man in shock.
"I've carefully watched this video just now, I can be completely sure that this video is fake."
The white-haired man said firmly, "Look at the details, although we did set the guidelines for plotting against Blackwatch some time ago, the words in this video are not what we said at all. I'm still very confident in my memory."
"You mean..."
The man in the military uniform turned his head abruptly. "You mean, this video is someone slandering us?"
"That's right!"
The white-haired man replied with certainty, "I've sent someone to check the conference room in the video, but we found that the conference room inside is only roughly the same, but there are many completely different details, which means that the location of this video is not our conference room at all. I also ordered people to remove all the decorations in the conference room, but they didn't find any eavesdropping devices, let alone any recording devices, so it's impossible for our meeting to be eavesdropped."
The man in the military uniform only then became solemn. "Now that you mention it, I really didn't use this tone when I first talked about this matter. I thought I was too busy with the meeting and forgot about it, but now it seems that this video is fake!"
"But even our technicians can't find any traces of forgery in this video."
At this moment, the two men who had been scolded to the point of not being able to raise their heads suddenly interrupted.
"Shut up!"
The man in the military uniform scolded.
"We can't find any traces, I suspect it's because the other party's production methods are too clever, but it doesn't matter."
The white-haired man said solemnly, "Perhaps we can't find any traces of forgery in the video, but we can fabricate traces of forgery..."
Hearing such a tongue-twisting sentence, the man in the military uniform and the other two were suddenly stunned, then immediately came to a realization.
Yes, even if they could not find traces of forgery, they could claim that they had found traces of forgery. This way, even if it was not enough to convince everyone, at least some people who believed in the government and them would believe all of this.
As for how to solve the problem after that, it was up to God...
After all of this was agreed, everyone began to make one last effort, acting in batches according to their respective duties, trying to minimize losses.
"But after this incident, that person from Blackwatch definitely won't come to Sweden to present the award..."
Looking at the crowd hurriedly leaving and the White House in a mess, the white-haired man showed a gloomy expression. He said to the man in the military uniform who had calmed down, "The current situation is very clear. Blackwatch really has the world's strongest hacker force, no wonder they always get confidential information in advance, this makes sense..."
"It's really them..."
The man in the military uniform showed a hint of anger. "Have they ever thought about the consequences of angering us? A mere company dares to go against the strongest government in the world? "
"Now it seems that they've already known that we're going to make a move against them a long time ago, so naturally, they have their reasons for doing this."
The white-haired man nodded. "This company is really scary. At present, if we want to destroy them, the only way is to shed all pretense of cordiality and impose dual economic and military sanctions on them. This is the only safe and effective way."
