Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

Chapter 207

Cheeky!

Liam entered Korea the day after the results of the meeting between the US Secretary of State and Japan were announced.

As he exited the VIP-only entry gate, he was immediately surrounded by the bodyguards I mobilized, and soon climbed into the prepared bulletproof vehicle.

[Isn’t it too conspicuous? There aren’t many people who want me here like America.]

Liam smiled and looked at me, who mobilized so many bodyguards that I thought it was excessive.

He doesn’t mean he’s going to repay him for the treatment he’s been treated before.

Although it is a bit cumbersome, this episode is just a measure to give me peace of mind.

[Are you going straight to the hotel?][For now, it should be. I would like to spend time with Chairman Jin until the afternoon when the State Department team from Japan arrives.]

He smiled and got into the car, and his expression looked like he had a lot to say.

In particular, looking at the shadows around the eyes, it seems that my guess is not wrong.

Discord between the current US government and Liam.

that it started in earnest.

[The Korean press was also not outraged.]

The first words he spoke when he got into the car were concerns about the country’s media, which is pouring out negative tones towards the United States.

After all, it was he who worked hard on the relationship with Korea so far.

However, regardless of his will, it would not have looked so good that the tower was collapsing.

[There is bound to be an uproar. The sale of the F-22 in Japan, which is nothing else, is something that Koreans will take quite seriously. As you would know if you have heard it, now, some civic groups are even claiming the withdrawal of our military from Iraq.][That point is misunderstood.][···········.]

It was an unusual fight, so I looked at him quietly.

What he didn’t like so much, he sighed and suddenly vomited his complaints towards the Japanese officials.

[I know, but the Japanese tend to interpret everything as they please.][Suddenly, what do you mean by that again?][Isn’t the sale of the F-22 to Israel allowed this time? That’s why Japan is using it as an excuse for media play. We have already made a request for correction of that part, so a correction report will be released soon.][Press play?][Simply put, it is a bypass pressure to open the door to them as well. The stupid idea that we won’t be able to refuse if we mobilize our own media to create a lot of atmosphere.][That means the US doesn’t intend to sell the F22 to Japan after all?]

Liam hesitated for a moment at the question.

If it was a negative fight the whole time, he twisted his eyes wondering what kind of frustrating attitude this is, and he continues the conversation again.

[To be honest, the atmosphere in the Administration and Congress is half and half. There are many people with strong pro-Japanese tendencies in the current US government…][···········.]

Yeah, that’s exactly what I was concerned about.

Funds from the Japanese right wing that have infiltrated American politics and society for a long time.

As a result, there are now quite a few pro-Japanese forces in the US political circle.

[Even so, there is nothing to worry too much about. No matter how strong their pro-Japanese tendencies may be, in the end they are American bureaucrats. There’s no way we can’t just fall for such clumsy Japanese craftsmanship, right?][I hope so, but the problem is that Japanese bureaucrats are also not very smart.]

Liam looked at me like it was nonsense again.

He licked his lips and spit out the thoughts that had just crossed his mind.

[It means that their media play may not be very ineffective.][···········.]

He still looked puzzled.

He was explaining again while holding a model of the Ghost Eagle that was in the car at the same time.

[Once a fighter production line is closed, it costs a lot to restore it.][···········.][By the way, the production line of the F22 has already been closed, and if you want to sell the F22 to Israel, you have to revive it. In that case, the production cost will increase dramatically.][Yeah… well, I guess.][However, if even Japan introduces it, can you partially offset the increased cost? Japan is now targeting that and playing the media.][···········.]

Liam then distorted his expression.

But he soon spits out a smirk.

I look at him for something, and he shakes his head.

[Even so, the possibility of sales in Japan will not be great.][···········.][Because I will actively block it by leaving other things. If that happens, our relationship with Korea would be really messed up, but I can’t wait to see it.]

There was a strong determination in his eyes that flashed for a moment.

After all, from his point of view, the relationship between Korea and the United States that has been built up so far cannot be broken down as easily.

I smiled and spoke again.

[Even so, as a Nokid, you would feel a little sad, right?][No, they don’t have any regrets, because they’ll take care of what they want against Japan anyway.][···········.][Japan’s own fifth-generation fighter development project. Would Japan’s abilities make it worthwhile? After all, like the case of the F2 fighter, there is a high possibility that it will require technical cooperation from the United States. If that’s the case, as a nokid…]

At those words, he shook his head.

In a nutshell, that means we’re going to eat Japan again.

Just as Japan was sucked into the US in the development of F2.

After hearing those words, I feel a little sorry for Japan.

No, it’s a pity to be pitiful.

Rather, it’s a cool thing.

[By the way, what would you like to do with China?]

While he was talking alone, Liam changed the topic.

In fact, that is the issue that matters at this point.

I sneakily checked the soundproofing with the driver’s seat, then spit it out.

[Our government is in a position to induce China to designate as a state sponsor of terrorism as there is solid evidence.][It’s natural, but…]

Liam’s response was somehow not cool.

I looked at him with a hopeful thought, and he licked his lips and continued his speech.

[The problem is that there are too many forces that oppose sanctions against China among the forces currently in control of our government.][···········.][The businessmen who are making huge profits in China right now. From their point of view, sanctions against China are not welcome, right?][I guess so. If the US government imposes sanctions on China at this point, it will start an all-out economic war.][Yes. If that happens, they will have to give up the huge market of China, which means that they have no choice but to regret it.]

In fact, historically, this is the worst defeat the US government has ever committed.

Just because he was drunk on sucking honey, he didn’t even think about touching China in any way.

But wouldn’t that be a serious situation if it even crushed this important piece of evidence?

If this is the case, it is likely that China’s liver is growing more than its history.

Are you really thinking about what the outcome will be?

‘No, if you’re thinking about it, the US wouldn’t have such an attitude.’

At times like this, the desire to recite history one after another is like a chimney.

damn it! If you leave China as it is, in the future, it will surely become a boomerang.

[To be clear, there is no future unless China is firmly brought down now.][Who doesn’t know that? However, as I said earlier, in a situation where people who are drunk with honey are putting pressure on the current government, we will avoid sanctions as much as possible. No, it would be nice if we didn’t secretly do business with the evidence as an excuse.]

As soon as I heard those words, a voice came out.

In the end, I wondered if that was the purpose of their visit.

If that is the purpose, videos and evidence must never be passed on to them.

‘But by what means … . . . .’

As the troubles deepened, a method suddenly came to mind.

If there were any beings with greater power than the groups currently oppressing the US government.

In fact, if they are in a situation where they can benefit from sanctions on China.

Of course, I want to be ahead of the curve.

[The Chinese market is a pretty good place for American financial powers, right?]

Thoughts jumped straight out into words.

Liam rolled his eyes and looked at me, and the car was entering the hotel.

I stopped the car for a moment and then spoke again.

[What does that mean all of a sudden?][If China’s financial market is fully opened, it would be a welcome thing for US financiers.][Isn’t that obvious? However, due to the fierce resistance of China, it is still…

Liam blurted his words and opened his eyes.

He quickly revealed his expression and quickly changed his posture and sat down.

[Are you trying to use the US financiers to press the government to sanction China?][Yes. And the only condition for lifting the sanctions is to nail it to financial openness. Wouldn’t that give financiers a justification to take an active role, and their power would be enough for the US government to change its mind?][···········.][Honestly, if sanctions are imposed, the possibility of China’s financial openness is sufficient. No matter how much China is designated as a state sponsor of terrorism, it will take a huge hit. Especially trade and investment. And sanctions on financial transactions are a disaster for the Communist Party. In severe cases, it could change the landscape of power within the Chinese government.][However, it is not only China that suffers if sanctions are imposed. All countries that have trade relations with China will suffer inconvenience. In fact, don’t you know that the US government is more stubborn because of that?][Of course, it is true that there are problems in international trade. But that is a story when there is no alternative called India.]

That was what I believed in.

Unlike before, India in this era is playing the role of a huge production base as much as China.

If there are very few alternatives, it is possible, otherwise the world would not be in a state of panic due to China’s sanctions.

[At the end of the day, will China negotiate to keep India in check?][right. India is also traditionally hostile to China, and their infinite growth will be burdensome.][But opening up finance now would be like putting a string around its neck for China. Knowing that, will they really agree to the negotiation?][Honestly, the odds are half and half. No, there is a high probability of surviving it.][···········.][But for now, it is a success in eliciting sanctions. And isn’t it true that once sanctions are in place, there is an opportunity to de-energize China? That is what the president and I want.]

Liam swallowed dry saliva.

He murmured for a while, wondering what he was thinking, then looked at me.

[Clearly, it is a condition that attracts financiers, but what is the benefit of Chairman Jin, so why are he clinging to sanctions like this?]

I took a deep breath at the question.

[For me, no, it is only for our country that it is necessary for the future to take away the power of a poor neighboring country.][···········.][Plus, it’s not just American financiers who benefit from the opening of China’s financial markets. Chairman, would you be more aware of how much financial investment I am making in the United States?]

*****

[This morning, the White House has designated China a state sponsor of terrorism.]

A week later, the US government, unable to resist pressure from US financiers mobilized by Liam, eventually began to impose sanctions on China.

It was only natural for China to get away with it, but what does that mean when there is clear evidence?

In the end, European and other countries joined the sanctions, which resulted in the side effect of staggering the world economy for a while.

[Companies from various countries are entering the Indian market in earnest.]

But the confusion was quickly settled.

India, which already had a production infrastructure comparable to that of China, absorbed most of the shock.

Of course, companies that had their own factories in China were hit hard, but the US made some concessions in that area, reducing the impact as much as possible.

[China held a general meeting of the Communist Party this morning.]

As expected, the Chinese resistance was not formidable.

As it is for a while, it will probably take time to find a way out.

In fact, no one knows yet how this boring fight will end.

Except that this is the real beginning.

[The National Assembly today revised the bill on gun possession and use.]

November 2009.

Congress passed amendments to the gun laws.

As a result, the security guards of the Jaewoo group in the future will be able to arm themselves only within a specific area.

After that, with the help of Liam, I established PMC in the United States and started recruiting talented people in earnest.

“Major Kang should be in charge of recruiting and educating talented people in Korea.”

After leaving the military, Major Kang Chae-hoon decided to take charge of the Korean branch for a while.

As I was about to leave the venue with a short appointment ceremony, Major Kang suddenly caught up with me like Deukdal.

“Why, do you have anything else to say?”

“no. For a while, I will be in charge of the president’s close-up security.”

“·················ogue.”

I glanced around at his sudden words.

Come to think of it, Natasha’s face that I couldn’t see the whole time.

I am trying to look at Secretary Kim with a puzzled mind, but Major Kang’s words pierce my ears.

“Natasha took a few days off and went to Russia. So he asked me to keep the president close.”

“Why Russia?”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“I don’t know that either.”

I tilted my head and turned back.

In an instant, Major Kang caught up with him again and opened the car door and threw out meaningful words.

“By the way, that Natasha was not your average friend.”

“·················ogue.”

“It was the first time I had been in a close fight with someone who lasted more than 10 minutes. Even in a woman’s body…”

I rolled my eyes at those words.

So that means…there’s already been a fight between the two of them.

No, second to that, what did you say now?

Those words that lasted 10 minutes. Does that mean Natasha lost in the end?

Is that Natasha?

“From today, this space development center will be reborn as a comprehensive research center.”

A few days later, a space center jointly established by the government and Jaewoo was opened in Narodo, South Jeolla Province.

Although the foundation is still being laid, this place is expected to become the Mecca of Korea’s space development project in a few years.

In particular, for Jaewoo, it is a major project that mobilizes the group’s main capabilities, so the investment alone amounts to several trillions of won.

“Hey, I didn’t even think that we would even proceed with our own satellite acquisition project.”

Seongho spat out words wet with emotion as he looked at the expansive land where the excavation was in progress.

Again, it was quite burdensome for him to develop and secure various satellites with a total project cost of 20 trillion won.

However, compared to the future profits, that 20 trillion won would be a real hemostasis of the family.

Communication. And in a future where information is key.

No, not just in the industrial field, but also in the military field.

In particular, I was paying attention to the military field, and I am interested in North Korea and China in the future. And a conflict that could arise against our hypothetical adversary, such as Japan. Or, in war, securing reconnaissance assets is the key.

“You raised your hands at the thought of leaving something else and renting satellites to the country and getting money.”

“What kind of mutual aid?”

“So, I mean, is it possible to think like that without being crazy? By the way, Hee-won said something strange, but he said that if the research institute was established here, the group’s general research institute would be moved to this place.”

As I was deep in my thoughts, Seongho’s words came back.

He was fortunately far away from his other companions.

He said looking back at the excavator that was digging again.

“Okay, there will be no other place where security management is as perfect as here.”

“Well, all around is the sea. If the PMC, fully armed with Jae-woo’s system, is in charge of security, who will step over here? But what the hell did you tell him to be prepared for what he was trying to develop? How could I have scared him that he was already so bruised?” . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“I’m sorry, but that applies to you too.”

Seongho was pierced by my sudden spit.

I immediately threw my homework to the guy who was about to turn around with a hard expression on his face as if he had said something worthwhile.

“From now on, you and Seongho. And the key researchers in the group will develop the EMP.”

“EMP? If that is the case, it is being developed jointly with the United States.”

Seongho asked with an odd look.

He turned around and put his hand on his shoulder and spoke again.

“Aside from the toy-level EMP, something that can change the game of the battlefield. The goal is to develop something that is equivalent to the effect that occurs during a nuclear explosion.”

“No…why do you do that…”

“Because war can happen anytime in this country. In that case, I will do my best to avoid damage to allies as much as possible. And you want to have the means to crush the enemy in the first place.”

“·················ogue.”

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-208
