Breaking Up Is Better Than Divorce

thousands of years of doubt

“I heard a really interesting story.”

Zhang Xiwei, who couldn’t hide his surprised expression at first, quickly regained his composure, even made wrinkles around his eyes and smiled.

“It looks like you have to pay the price for this.”

Zhang Shiwei had already understood Yujin’s intention to say that. Others might have just heard it, but it seems to have been very different for him.

Of course, Jiang Shiwei had good reasons for that.

When you come across a piece of information, what should be the most important thing in determining the authenticity of the information? It goes without saying, of course, that the speaker is talking about it.

Zhang Xiwei knows well that Yujin is not a nonsense person.

At a time when the corona virus is on the rise, rather than thinking that the richest man in the world is just telling meaningless rumors to Jiang Siwei, who came from New York to LA, it is much more correct to think that there is a hidden meaning in his words.

Another reason is that Zhang Xiwei is well aware that Eugene has established his own intelligence network by recruiting former CIA director John Brannon.

It is not a secret, nor is it illegal for John Brennan and many other former intelligence agencies to work under Eugene.

When there is a change in government, it is natural for talented people from various fields, including intelligence agencies, to leave the agency and look for jobs in companies.

It is a country that values freedom as its highest value, not a communist country or a dictator’s harsh iron fist rule.

Moreover, John Brannon is not simply one of many former CIA officers who once served as CIA Directors, but a legendary figure who spent most of his youth in that line.

Moreover, the CIA’s reputation is greater in China than in the United States.

It is a well-known fact that China’s intelligence agency, the National Security Agency, was also created in effect to imitate the CIA, and that the authorities in the agency are full of admirers of the CIA.

Based on these factors, Jiang Xiewei was convinced that Yujin’s story about the builders from Shenyang must have hidden some obvious meaning.

Moreover, it was after we talked for a while about the Myanmar project.

Of course, nominally, it was said that scholars were seeking help in working in hazardous areas for humanitarian purposes, but if it were someone so ignorant that they didn’t realize that it was only an excuse, Jiang Shiwei could not have grown to this level in such a place as the battle horse. will be.

“If you enjoyed listening, that’s enough.”

“The help you gave Junsan-kun with his personal problems is absolutely nothing. Yes, the clerk will be really grateful next time.”

Zhang Shiwei was already calculating how useful this information he had heard from Eugene would be.

If the secret behind Eugene’s words is true, it will be a great boon for his owner.

If you are being paid by Prime Minister Wang without your leader’s knowledge, you will have no choice but to look at Lim suspiciously as a leader.

China’s politics have always been like that. Not only in the modern communist regime, but in the history of thousands of years, it has been very common for a person who was in the top position to be turned into a rebel in an instant because of a small suspicion of the supreme authority.

As in any country, the most important thing to survive in politics is to avoid suspicion of the most powerful.

If Manager Lim gets the leader’s suspicions, of course, Ye will gain strength.

It is incomparably more grateful than helping my son who had an accident in America.

“You are so happy, so it’s worth bringing out this little humor.”

Eugene still says it’s just a trivial story.

And he is well aware that Zhang Xiwei has no idea how valuable this little piece of information is, what the real value is.

This is where Director Lim starts doing more than just taking money from Prime Minister Wang.

It was, according to a Chinese builder whom Eugene met on a port construction job that was only part of the Myanmar project.

The president, who likes alcohol and enjoys showing off when it comes to alcohol, was fond of Eugene, who was born in Korea and was successful in a world-class construction company.

Perhaps because of that, he was not hesitant to talk about the closeness of the Chinese scene that only he knew.

Perhaps you wanted to brag about how great people you are.

Of course, I didn’t hear the deep story. No matter how drunk he was, he knew what not to say.

At the time, I had only heard that a huge amount of money was flowing from Myanmar back to the Chinese regime.

In fact, it was something that everyone noticed, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.

However, after about 10 years had passed, I had the opportunity to meet him again, and only then did I hear the details related to this incident.

* * *

At that time, Eugene was sitting in an important position in an American company, and the president of a construction company had already risen to the position of a representative of an international group.

Even then, I thought he was a very resourceful person, but as I thought, he had a large company in his hands that ran large resorts and hotels, not only in China but also throughout Southeast Asia.

“So, it was the beginning that the guys who came from Shenyang were caught by the discipline.”

One day, at a drinking party, he casually brought out the secrets related to the fall of the head of the Ministry of National Security, Lim.

It had already been more than 10 years, and most of the people involved had dropped out, so there doesn’t seem to be much of a problem.

Moreover, after that much time had passed, the secrets related to him also flowed out one by one, so there was no big secret.

“The clerk of the discipline committee got it right. An agreement between the Ministry of National Security and Prime Minister Wang. That was the beginning. Like a necklace of pearls buried in the soil, they started to be caught one by one along the string. They were all factors of the old wave. The reason was enough. I mean, they stole huge sums from the plans they were building for China’s future in East Asia. After all, I almost got involved, right? huh.”

Fortunately, the president was in charge of cooperating with the US side, so it seems that he was not able to wear the clothes as much as he wanted. At that time, Eugene was acting a bit picky.

“It’s all thanks to you. If I had taken care of it like everyone else at that time, my neck would have been blown away. huh.”

Although that was not Eugene’s intention, the president seemed to think that it was thanks to Eugene that he was able to keep the title.

For that reason, he generously served the expensive drinks to Eugene, whom he had not seen in a very long time.

“But the reality was a little different. It wasn’t just about sucking honey on foreign aid construction plans. It seems that the purpose of the project was to build a power with the money stolen from the project and appoint Prime Minister Wang as the next leader. Meanwhile, Director Lim and Prime Minister Wang were holding hands. He was a necessary person for the Prime Minister. Everything that happens abroad is handled by the Ministry of National Security. There was no way to avoid the eyes of the Ministry of National Security to evade the necessary funds in a bold way. So it seems like he suggested that we do it together.”

“If the director of the Ministry of National Security was the person who was the clerk’s favourite, was there any reason to join in such a dangerous act? Isn’t that your name?”

“Well, maybe it is. But not as far as I know. In fact, that was the atmosphere at the time. If this continues, China will become a dictatorship. It must have been a very precarious situation internally. However, the clerk’s power was very tight, and those who opposed it were increasingly losing real power. Maybe it was the last chance. So, it seems that Director Lim, who is the clerk’s review, intervened.”

The political landscape of China at the time had a sophisticated system that forbids the concentration of excessive power on one person.

However, the collective leadership system that had continued for decades in the leadership system at the time was coming to an end at some point.

Until then, the three factions shared important posts within the Communist Party and kept the rules of checks and balances, but during the ten years that he took power, the leader filled important positions in the regime with those who followed him.

Those who were not in the leader’s faction were pushed out of the job, and Prime Minister Wang, who would have been the successor in the original position, remained virtually invisible.

It was at this point that not only Prime Minister Wang, but also the powers of countless other factions were feeling the fact that they were gradually being pushed out.

They had no choice but to rebel against the leaders’ actions to break the decades-long agreement.

On the other hand, Lim said that he was considered the leader’s successor, but because the length of the leader’s term was not decided, it was impossible to know whether it would take decades or forever for him to take over the power.

So, in the end, rather than hoping for the next generation with no promises, it seems that Prime Minister Wang has confirmed the next position.

In a way, it was a kind of coup plan. However, Lim’s rival, Ye Sr.’s Discipline Inspection Committee, caught the tail, and their plan ended with only numerous victims.

* * *

This is the story of some Shenyang builders that the future Eugene knows.

It is also the secret of the sad purge that will start about a year from now.

I think that maybe even Ye Seo-gi is already noticing it.

However, compared to the time Eugene knew, I don’t think they would have seen each other for a year after they grabbed their tails.

Moreover, right now, in the midst of the corona virus, China’s political circles are in a state of frenzy with only internal problems.

“So next time, I’ll bring a really decent gift.”

“I wish it were. A gift from Mr. Jang is always welcome.”

Eugene could have predicted that the next gift he would bring would be of a different kind than Jiang Shiwei himself thought.

The story Yujin told Zhang Shiwei will take some kind of route to reach Ye Seogi.

And since Seogi Ye is a story told by Eugene and not by anyone else, there is no choice but to be interested.

Eugene isn’t the problem, but given the fame of John Brannon under him, it’s a problem that can’t be taken lightly.

Clerk Ye will, as always, carefully try to ascertain the truth of this fact, and will eventually discover a very large vein of gold.

There is no doubt about it. Even if Eugene does not tell you, he will succeed in thoroughly purging the opposing forces and will gain the deep trust of the leader.

Now, something different from the last life will be thanks to Eugene.

Where is it common to have an opportunity to go beyond simply prosecuting rivals, and seize an opportunity to wipe out a horde that rebelled against the leader in one shot?

You can expect a lot this time around. Anyone who will breathe a sigh of relief with Eugene’s information will go beyond Jiang Shiwei and Ye Clerk to the most powerful people in China.

side effect

“There seems to have been a commotion in Beijing the last few days.”

Shortly after giving Zhang Xiwei a little hint, Eugene was sitting alone with John Brannon.

John Brannon, the head of New York-based ABC, like most of its affiliates, flew across the continent to mean that what he was trying to report was just as important.

“It is said that Zhongnanhai is very noisy.”

middle high. In Korean, Jungnamhae is the villa area of the former Qing Dynasty imperial family located in the center of Beijing.

After the fall of the Qing Dynasty and the rise of the Communist Party to power, it was the home of the State Council and the Central Committee of the Communist Party, which are key institutions of power, and is the residence of major current leaders and related people.

In a word, it can be seen as a special zone for the highest ranks of the current Communist Party.

Since it was the residence of the top leaders and their families, from President Mo to Zhou Enlai, and Deng Soping, the place is restricted to the general public, and in fact, it can be called a new imperial castle in China.

For this reason, Zhongnanhai was also used as a term to refer to the highest ranks of the Communist Party of China.

Not to mention that Zhongnanhai is noisy, it means that there is something wrong with the top people in China.

“It is said that a large number of Prime Minister Wang’s aides were arrested by the Discipline. Except for Prime Minister Wang and Chairman Zhou, most of them seem to have been imprisoned, and it is only a matter of time before the two of them step down.”

“What happened to Lim?”

“It seems to be on the first list of people detained.”

John Brannan replied with a meaningful smile.

The people who confirmed what’s happening in Myanmar are, of course, the employees under John Brannon, and of course they have the most accurate understanding of what’s going on.

“Perhaps a great wind of blood is blowing. I think all those who oppose the current president will be purged by this incident.”

“I will continue my next term of office safely.”

“It will be difficult for even the voices of constructive criticism, let alone the opposition, to come out.”

“How is the successor appointment going?”

Eugene set out to find out about the leader’s other servants, who would now become Ye-Shi-gi’s new enemies.

“It is still unknown. All I know is that there are so many big seats and the competition is fierce.”

Unfortunately, it was difficult to obtain sufficient information at this point.

John Brannon’s ABC has built a world-class intelligence network perhaps unprecedented for any private company other than national intelligence agencies.

But even so, the limitations are clear. Like other national intelligence agencies, they cannot obtain in-depth information through the embassies of each country, nor risk their lives to engage in illegal activities.

The limitations of the private enterprise were clear, and the method of collecting information was mostly obtained through the connections of former informants recruited by John Brannon.

There is a limit to acquiring the real situation inside China’s central political power, which is famous for being closed.

Nevertheless, in some cases, it is the person named John Brannon that makes ABC get information as fast as any other state agency.

“What will be the effect on our side?”

“There will be no collateral damage, as most of the people I have a good relationship with now are in important positions in the current president’s clique.”

Eugene does not represent the U.S. government, nor does she work for the U.S. government.

Naturally, his views were focused only on how his own business would be affected.

“Langley seems to be paying close attention. The White House seems to be asking for a Langley report because the US has not yet decided what stance it will take on this situation.”

Langley, as John Brannan said, is where the CIA headquarters is located, meaning that the CIA is also paying attention to this incident.

“Has no decision been made?”

“As the elections are just around the corner, I don’t think we can afford to pay attention to the political struggles across the sea.”

At this time, the trend was clearly shifted to the Democratic Party. Everyone is saying that Donald Trump should empty the White House next year.

“Donald seems to believe he will win again this time.”

John Brannon said with a smirk on his lips.

Of course. Donald Trump has always been convinced of his victory.

In particular, the fact that he won an unexpected victory with various aggro in the last election made him even more proud.

Even now, the approval rating analysis shows that he will lose by a poor margin, but he seems to believe that the result will be different when the lid is opened.

“I am a person with a strong ego, so it is natural. If it wasn’t for that person, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

“Anyway, the United States will not be able to respond to this incident in China. Maybe they don’t even know that China is anticipating it and working on it.”

“It could be. In any case, it would be nice to be able to wipe out the enemies without any major problems for the current administration.”

In order to change the system, it is only natural to kill people who have a different opinion than yourself first.

“With our analysis, at least tens of billions of dollars of political money are moving. Some analysts say it could be as high as 100 billion units.”

After the opposing party’s purge, it is obvious that they will recover the slush funds they have accumulated abroad.

And, as is the case in most authoritarian countries, the slush funds of the powerful are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people in terms of their size.

“The commentators are going to have a good time for a while.”

Of course, the dreadful amount of slush funds is simply an individual’s deviation and should not be viewed as merely accumulating an individual’s wealth.

The use of slush funds is actually mostly a means of maintaining one’s own faction.

It is difficult for an organization to sustain itself if it does not pay adequate compensation to the numerous members of the faction.

Most dictators spend at least sparingly on their subordinates.

The Chinese with a long history knew very well that a regime would never last long unless it enabled those who would support them to live a more prosperous life than those who did not.

“I heard that Langley is also busy trying to keep up with the flow of money involved.”

When large amounts of funds hidden around the world start to move all at once, traces are bound to be revealed somewhere.

And the CIA, which dominates the world’s intelligence network, will be able to track such traces and identify additional funds for the current leader’s group.

Of course, there is no such thing as putting any restrictions on it right now.

However, if the confrontation between the US and China rises to a higher level someday, the information obtained at this time will be used.

America has always behaved that way. One of the greatest strengths the US government has is that it can use the method of freezing various slush funds hidden abroad, particularly in the US and in the West, by the other heads of state with good cause.

John Brannon’s greatest connections are also in the United States.

There were still many people within the CIA who did not give up their respect for John.

Thanks to this, Eugene was able to pick up a lot of internal affairs that were previously difficult to understand through John, and also confirmed the fact that they were quite uncomfortable with the current White House.

“If you decide at the White House, you can have enough influence in China right now… … There seems to be no such report.”

For some reason, it is quite understandable. Donald would be more than willing to go to war with China right now to win his election.

Military veterans who were aiding Trump at the White House right now testified that he had prevented Donald Trump from starting a war several times without thinking.

It was one side that clearly showed Donald that the blood that others shed was merely a means to show off his feat.

Fortunately, however, the situation at the top level of the Chinese regime did not seem to attract Trump’s attention.

Already, polls have reported that Trump is down 15% to 20% over Biden. That’s a far bigger difference than the gap with Hillary in the last presidential election.

Even though he was obsessed with his victory for that reason, Trump was working hard for a sure win until the last minute.

“This time I am going to campaign in the southern region. I would like to have a seat with you.”

Eugene was also one of the cards Trump wanted to use.

While the corona virus threatens the whole world, the place where the most victims are coming out is the United States, the world’s most powerful country, ironically.

While other countries are implementing aggressive lockdown policies on the coronavirus and doing their best to prevent new cases, Trump has said he doesn’t support masks, and said he doesn’t support Republican lawmakers in New York and California who are protesting local lockdown policies. If you did something that gave you strength, it must have had an impact to some extent.

Worse, Trump supporters were dismissing the coronavirus as a conspiracy and pushing American civil society more into conflict.

Eugene is a representative figure who is benefiting from the reflexes in American society that has been so messed up.

Eugene has already spent a whopping $100 billion in funding for the survival of American communities.

With Eugene’s help, the poor and tens of millions of middle-class people who have been pushed into poverty due to mass unemployment and the poor who are on the brink of survival due to the corona virus were avoiding starvation.

Of course, in the meantime, Eugene did not stop using billions of dollars again to spread his good deeds.

Of course, it’s not just an advertisement to announce Eugene’s name.

To the last, advertisements containing information such as how to survive the corona virus and how to use a mask correctly, or public service advertisements to help people in difficult circumstances in the community, were running large amounts of advertising money in newspapers across the United States. .

Even so, it is quite natural that many media outlets, who had to sell off the advertising space that had been reduced due to the corona virus, voluntarily promoted Eugene’s good deeds in some way.

Monica’s public relations team estimates that at least three local newspapers have survived the bankruptcy thanks to Eugene’s advertising dollars.

With such a generous investment, even the redneck farmers in the now secluded corners of the countryside know Eugene’s name well, and, if not favorably, at least did not show any hostility toward him.

Eugene’s acquaintance with Donald from the beginning of the Trump administration may also play a part in this.

For Eugene, the investment in Donald has already paid off.

Above all, in the process of expanding the initial capital, he was able to prevent the movement of forces that would be hostile to him.

Rumors of a new president’s demise were the best shield he could use.

And it’s a side effect of Donald Trump that he’s not at least not hated by the extreme Trump supporters in the southern agricultural zone and northern industrial zone.

And with the election approaching again, Eugene was being fervently courted by Trump.
