After saying this, the two people sat sideways and didn't speak again for a while.

Chang Haonan picked up the teapot and wanted to pour water for the two of them again.

Only to find it was empty.

I had no choice but to get up and get a thermos bottle from the table a little further away, and fill the teapot again.

The huge office fell into a somewhat oppressive silence.

Just as Ding Gaoheng said just now.

Both of them are technicians at the end of the day.

What can be done is limited.

China is still at a stage where it must hide its capabilities and bide its time.

There is a limit to what can be done.

Allowing compatriots to protect themselves is the result of Chang Haonan's dedicated efforts in the past two years.

As for the higher level, everyone can predict the tragedy of the entire country.

There is nothing I can do but love.

Unfortunately.

At this point in time in the late 90s.

Power is not in the hands of civilized countries.

Therefore, there is really no point in continuing to talk about this topic.

It's just adding some useless sadness.

……

The two of them drank two more cups of tea in silence.

Only this time, it was Chang Haonan who broke the silence first.

After all, he had already experienced what happened next.

And no matter how bad the current situation is, it cannot be worse than in the previous life.

The psychological load and stress is therefore much less.

"Although it is impossible for our official agencies to evacuate to express their attitude, under the current circumstances, should we consider evacuating overseas Chinese in advance?"

Chang Haonan rubbed the edge of the tea cup with his right hand and said:

"Otherwise, if a conflict breaks out and the sea and air are blocked, it will be difficult to figure it out."

In the original timeline, because China was almost unprepared for the Allied action, it was not until mid-April that about 4 expatriates were evacuated overland to Romania after going through untold hardships.

Now that I know the relevant information in advance, I can naturally be more relaxed.

"Since the beginning of the year, relevant departments have been working on this matter."

Ding Gaoheng nodded and replied:

"However, because NATO's troop buildup is not public information, we also obtained it through special channels. Therefore, in order to protect the source of intelligence, we cannot take too big actions and can only make insinuations one by one."

"Fortunately, there are not many Chinese in the south at present, and the Spring Festival is approaching soon, so it won't be too abrupt to send them back in batches. We should be able to evacuate them in good order."

"But if you really can't say it, or if you explicitly refuse to come back, we have no choice."

Chang Haonan is not a holy mother. Having reached this point, she has already exhausted all her benevolence and justice. It is unrealistic to force more.

What he was more interested in was what Ding Gaoheng called "special intelligence channels":

"We have intelligence operations in Europe...?"

Obviously, this is the core reason for being able to know the other party's movements in advance instead of being ignorant like in the past.

Ding Gaoheng nodded:

"I actually don't know much about the specific things myself. This falls under the jurisdiction of the General Staff Intelligence Bureau. However, in the past two years, the frequency of information updates there has indeed been much faster than before, especially in the United Kingdom and France. I suspect that some Downing Street may not know about things before we do..."

"Although I don't know exactly how it is done, I estimate that this is largely due to our increasingly closer ties with Europe and, of course, the Russians. Some activities are naturally better than in the past. It’s easy to carry out.”

"For example, regarding technology-related information, in the past, only Western countries sent engineers to our companies, which must have been one-way and transparent. Now, because of you, our engineers can also be stationed in them. , naturally we can come and go..."

Yes, after going around and around, we came back to Chang Haonan.

However, the vast majority of intelligence activities are indeed carried out in a completely open-label manner under the guise of legality.

It is an extremely rare operation to create a secret pile like the Cambridge Five or George Blake.

Therefore, to say that he has a share of credit here is not to say that he is trying to save his respect.

After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, Ding Gaoheng continued:

"But there are two sides to this kind of thing. After getting closer to these European countries, you will inevitably have to worry more about some things..."

"How to say?"

Chang Haonan helped the other party fill up the tea again, thinking that he was diverting his attention by listening to the story.

Otherwise, if you end the conversation now and go home or go to dinner, your mood may be affected for a long time.

"Actually, it's nothing. It happened at the second Xiangzhou Air Show last year."

Ding Gaoheng may have felt a little full after drinking. This time he did not go to get the tea cup immediately, but leaned back on the back of the sofa:

"Our exhibits this time are actually the same as last time. If I have to mention, there is an extra trainer from Guiyang Aviation Industry9, and there is also an AC139 helicopter prototype that AgustaWestland worked overtime to produce. But thanks to the huge commotion in the past two years, there are many more customers who want to buy airplanes than there were in 96..."

As the person in charge of the entire aviation manufacturing industry, when talking about the Xiangzhou Air Show, his mood recovered from the slight depression just now:

"The final results reported by the organizer showed that the total transaction volume was nearly 30 times higher than that of the first session..."

"30 times! That much?"

In November last year, Chang Haonan happened to be so busy in Fucheng that he could not find time to pay attention to the Xiangzhou Air Show, which had few highlights. So when I heard this number, I was shocked and almost spilled the tea in my hand.

Although the progress is particularly rapid because the starting point is very low, a sudden increase of 30 times is still quite scary no matter how low the starting point is...

"yes……"

Ding Gaoheng had predicted Chang Haonan's reaction just now. At this moment, he naturally had an expression that said, "Your kid will finally be scared one day." He replied with a smile on his face:

"This is because we took into account the international impact and placed an order."

"At that time, Argentina wanted to trade minerals and agricultural products for 18 J-7F fighter jets in the form of barter. But you know, the situation there is more complicated, and this kind of arms sales is likely to touch the pain points of the British."

"So... considering that we currently have a relatively close relationship with the UK, we did not directly agree to the deal at that time, and it was stuck in the approval process."

Arms sales are rarely purely commercial.

All influences at other levels must be considered.

For example, in Project 27, Sukhoi required China not to export the Su- and its derivatives to third countries in any form.

In exchange, if the Su-27 upgraded model exported by the Sukhoi Group directly includes the technology jointly developed by both parties within the framework of Project , it must meet the conflict avoidance principle.
