Chapter 160 Kidnapping people home!

A few days later, Chengdu.

Bond sat in the hotel room, frowning at the latest intelligence.

"According to intelligence from the rear, the relevant departments have just reached an agreement with China to use the EC-130H and crew members that made an emergency landing in exchange for a group of scientific researchers stranded in our country."

"Among them, there is an expert named Chen Yunyong. He is in the direction of aero-engines, but during a recent review, technical documents about lift fans were found in his room."

"We have reason to suspect that he is related to Chengdu Aircraft's new project and is likely to play an important role in the project."

After hearing his words, Sean scratched his head subconsciously.

"Isn't this judgment too far-fetched? After all, they exchanged a lot of scientific researchers this time, and Chen Yunyong is not that outstanding."

"According to the information, he has not been engaged in scientific research for nearly five years. He has been teaching at Princeton and has been exposed to very basic technologies and information."

Bond glared at him angrily and cursed:

"Far-fetched? What is far-fetched?"

"Does it mean that we have to wait until they send the person to the research institute and get the evidence before it is not far-fetched?"

"Intelligence work is like this. Make reasonable deductions based on all possible clues. If you think all the clues are far-fetched, then what are we doing? We can just go back to Texas to herd cattle!"

".Okay, it's up to you. So what do we need to do?"

Sean spread his hands helplessly, his expression a little subtle.

He always felt that his partner was a little too neurotic, and he was dragged into things that were obviously not related.

"We can't let him enter the project team smoothly, at least not now."

Bond said decisively.

"How to do it? If the agreement has been reached, then there will be no obstacles to their return to the country. You won't want to blow up the plane."

"Idiot, is this what you came up with?"

Bond gritted his teeth. He couldn't understand how his partner could be so stupid.

Blow up the plane?

What a joke!

Not to mention how difficult it is in actual operation, more importantly, this "release" is based on an "agreement".

As long as those experts do not land safely, the other party will regard it as a breach of contract.

By that time, not to mention that the safety of our own crew members cannot be guaranteed, in serious cases, it may even lead to more violent conflicts.

No one wants to see this outcome.

He sighed, suppressing Lao Gao's anger, and patiently explained:

"We must get them back home safely."

"But we can't let them enter Chengdu smoothly."

"There are many ways we can produce such results."

"Something more extreme, car accidents, accidents, illness."

"Softer ones, scandals, scandals, rumors"

"Think about it. If a senior scholar is revealed to have had improper private life while abroad and has close contacts with hostile departments, will he have to undergo stricter scrutiny if he wants to enter the core project again?"

"That makes sense!"

Sean nodded in agreement.

"That's what we'll do?"

"I'm just giving an example. What to do specifically requires further discussion."

"But no matter what, let's put the rumors out first."

"Also, how is the investigation of the special working group going?"

Upon hearing Bond's question, Sean quickly took out a stack of documents from the briefcase beside him and handed it into his hand.

"At present, some areas have been defined based on the movement trajectories. After investigation, it was found that the movement trajectories of about 360 people overlap."

"These people were divided into a total of 29 groups. After excluding the 19 groups that were obviously inconsistent, there were about 10 groups that may be related to the special working group."

"The total number of people is 112."

"Are you kidding me? There are 112 people. Do you think it is easy to extract the people who are really related to the special working group?"

"not easy."

Sean sighed and then continued:

"But this is the limit of what we can do."

"Their actions are very covert and their confidentiality measures are very good. It is basically impossible to go deeper."

"What we can do now is hold this list and wait for further clues to appear."

"Once there are new clues, we can continue to narrow the scope and even confirm the final list of personnel."

"As long as we have a list of personnel, the follow-up matters will be much simpler."

Hearing this, Bond nodded slightly.

Well, although my partner sometimes behaves unreliably, he is not a waste after all.

This way of working is very organized and conforms to the logic of intelligence work.

At least, his more than ten years of work experience have not been in vain.

After thinking for a moment, he said:

"Continue to follow up. If there are any new developments, be sure to notify me in time."

"In addition, focus on flights between Chengdu and Shenyang, especially special flights!"

"It would be better if military planes could see it!"

"clear!"

Sean nodded solemnly, then turned around and left with the information.

On the other side, Chen Yunyong has already gotten in touch with the 601 Institute, and his contact person is Lei Gang.

"So you know the basic situation. We really need manpower here. The lift fan project has not made progress for a long time. We must have a strong leader to lead the team."

"How difficult is it exactly?"

After hearing what Lei Gang said, Chen Yunyong asked.

"The level of starting from 0."

"There is no preparation for theory?"

"No."

"Has the total pressure ratio problem been solved?"

"No."

"Understood, I will be there as soon as possible. Just be prepared."

After saying that, Chen Yunyong hung up the phone directly.

His wife Liu Huixia on the side held his hand with some worry and asked with concern:

"How about it?"

Chen Yunyong shook his head and did not answer immediately.

In fact, to ensure maximum security, the conversation between the two contained almost no specific information about the real project.

But even with just a few words, Lei Gang conveyed the key status quo.

There is no model, no basic theory, and no data. How easy is it to create a two-stage counter-rotating lift fan?

After thinking for a moment, he answered:

"The problem is not as simple as we think."

At this time, both of them had received notifications about the "recent evacuation", so there was no information gap.

"Domestic research in this area basically starts from scratch. Even if I are included, it is just a few decimal points added to this 'zero'."

"Without that breakthrough '1', everything is just talk."

Hearing this, Liu Huixia also frowned.

“Isn’t it possible to achieve a breakthrough in the short term?”
