Department Nine, Security Division.
When Zhao Chuanjun arrived at Liang Zuoxin's office, he had barely sat down and hadn't even asked a question when Liang Zuoxin handed him a document.
"This is a mission order issued by our superiors. We're entrusting the work of our Ninth Department to you this time."
As he spoke, Zhao Chuanjun picked up the document and began to read it.
He put down the documents after a short while, then stood up and said, "This is something we do best. Leave it to me."
Liang Zuoxin stood up and said, "Alright, then I'll leave it to you."
"Besides Lao Yu and Lao Chen, whoever you want to be investigated, please submit a report."
"The various branch factories below also need to be properly inspected. I'll have Yang Zhi's inspection team cooperate with you. In short, the task must be completed before the end of the year."
Zhao Chuanjun nodded again, "Understood, complete the task before the end of the year."
He then turned and left the office.
Soon, the Ninth Security Department issued a joint notice to the security sections of each branch factory.
At the same time, headquarters also began to conduct personnel reviews in an orderly manner.
The people in the research institute are especially important.
Research Institute, Printer Research Institute.
When Yang Xiaotao walked in, the people in the research institute were gathered around a computer.
"President Yang!"
The sound of the door opening startled everyone inside. Someone turned around, saw Yang Xiaotao, and quickly called out.
Upon hearing the voice, Liu Xiangdong and Xu Pengcheng immediately turned around and quickly walked over. "President Yang, you've come at the right time. We were just about to report to you on our research progress."
Seeing Xu Pengcheng's happy expression, Yang Xiaotao's curiosity was piqued. "Report on the progress?"
"Looks like you have some good news."
Xu Pengcheng chuckled and said, "You guessed right."
"However, this progress was not achieved by our research institute."
"Oh?"
Yang Xiaotao was startled, then realized something, "Is it at the Industrial University?"
"Yes, it's the research lab at the industrial university."
Xu Pengcheng said happily, then led Yang Xiaotao to the computer and pointed to the printer next to him, saying, "President Yang, our initial design has two insurmountable obstacles!"
"One issue is the slow response of the printer's motherboard."
"One is the issue of integration with computers."
Yang Xiaotao nodded as he looked at the printer, and after listening, he smiled and asked, "Both of these problems are solved?"
Xu Pengcheng shook his head, "No, but it's not far off."
"A colleague who had returned from abroad came to the laboratory at the Industrial University, and he proposed a solution: to add a buffer system."
"With this setting, the printed information will first wait in the settings, and then be queued."
Yang Xiaotao's eyes lit up after hearing what Xu Pengcheng said.
Simply put, it's like building a dam to control the waterway and allow ships to pass through in an orderly manner.
"That's a good idea. How's it going?"
Xu Pengcheng immediately nodded, "We are working on this setting now. Although it's not successful yet, it's definitely much better than before."
"Furthermore, the linkage between the computer and the printer can also be reorganized using this buffer setting."
"We believe this setup can solve two problems at once!"
At this point, the people from the surrounding research institutes smiled.
"That's wonderful! If you manage to do it, you'll have done a tremendous service!"
"This is no longer a consolation prize!"
Yang Xiaotao praised him with a smile, and everyone around him immediately laughed.
Upon hearing Yang Xiaotao's words, Jiang Ningning immediately said, "President Yang, this credit doesn't just belong to us; the colleagues from the Industrial University also contributed a lot."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Don't worry, if they're really useful and have passed the probation period, we must recruit such talent!"
Liu Xiangdong, Xu Pengcheng, and the others all nodded while standing. "President Yang, although this person returned from abroad, he is definitely a good comrade!"
Yang Xiaotao laughed along, but a sense of unease crept into his heart.
This person needs to be thoroughly investigated!
After leaving the printer research institute, Yang Xiaotao went to Qian Lao's office.
However, there was no one in the room; they must have been giving a lesson to the students.
Yang Xiaotao turned to leave, but bumped into Han Sanfeng at the door.
"Mr. Yang, do you have a moment?"
"Even if you're busy, you should still come and visit. How's your computer research going?"
Yang Xiaotao and Han Sanfeng walked and talked.
"It's alright. Most components now use integrated circuits, and the computing speed is much faster than before."
"It does use a lot of electricity!"
Han Sanfeng said with a smile, but Yang Xiaotao didn't take it seriously.
If this had been said before the nuclear power plant was built, he would have thought about it carefully and tried to find a way to solve the electricity problem.
Right now, the electricity delivered by the nuclear power plant every day is more than enough for nine departments, and even for the entire city of Beijing.
It was electricity that put Beijing and its surrounding areas on a fast track of development.
So that's how the need to build a second nuclear power plant came about.
"I heard you allocated fifty computers?"
When Han Sanfeng asked, Yang Xiaotao nodded and then recounted what Director Zheng had said yesterday.
Upon hearing this, Han Sanfeng also became more vigilant.
"We have a contingency plan for the computer, but what about the printer!"
"We can't let anything happen."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "That's what I'm worried about too."
"The good news is that Lao Xu and his team have made a breakthrough, and the new printer should be ready soon."
"At that time, we will be able to take the initiative."
Han Sanfeng nodded and said, "That would be best, but we still need to strengthen security measures."
"Yes, I just came from there."
"They said there was a returned expert named Wang Jiahao, and it was he who proposed the new solution that solved the problem of the new type of printer."
"However, I feel something is amiss."
Han Sanfeng fell into deep thought after listening. Yang Xiaotao had always been firmly skeptical of the attitude of the experts who had returned from abroad.
He didn't understand why Yang Xiaotao was being so forceful.
But now is not the time to argue about this. Considering the importance of the printer, Han Sanfeng solemnly said, "Have the security department investigate and pay attention to their actions."
"It's better to be safe than sorry."
Yang Xiaotao thought the same thing, "I'll talk to Lao Liang about it later."
As they talked, they arrived at the aircraft research institute and found Wu Zhe, who was busy at work.
The news that the Ninth Department was going to cooperate with the Third Ministry of Machine Building and the Logistics Department had already spread, and their research institute naturally had to make preparations.
After taking a stroll around the aircraft research institute, Yang Xiaotao headed back to his office. However, his mind was still preoccupied with the printer issue, and he remained absent-minded upon returning to his office.
Seeing Yang Xiaotao's expression, Liu Lixue asked curiously what was wrong. Yang Xiaotao shook his head, then, remembering that she had been to the Industrial University, he said, "There's a person who returned from abroad near the printer. Have you seen him?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Lixue's face immediately turned frosty, and she then turned her head away.
Yang Xiaotao didn't understand what was going on, and then looked at Lou Xiao'e standing to the side.
Upon seeing this, Lou Xiao'e quickly explained, "Is that person named Wang Jiahao?"
"Yes, it looks like this person."
Lou Xiao'e then smiled, glanced at Liu Lixue across from her, and said, "This Comrade Wang Jiahao has written a letter to our Secretary Liu."
"write a letter?"
Yang Xiaotao's gaze sharpened, and then he began to scrutinize Liu Lixue.
If this woman agrees, I guess I can eat wedding candy next year.
Seeing Yang Xiaotao looking over, Liu Lixue immediately crossed her arms and said, "Don't look at me, that guy doesn't look like a good person at all."
"Not a good person? How do you know?"
Yang Xiaotao asked curiously, but Liu Lixue just snorted coldly, "Intuition!"
"intuition?"
Yang Xiaotao listened to the seemingly unreliable reason, yet also felt that it made some sense.
"The way that guy looks at people makes you feel uncomfortable."
"I just don't like it."
As she spoke, she winked at Lou Xiao'e, but Lou Xiao'e ignored her.
"Intuition, well, sometimes, a woman's intuition is really quite accurate."
Yang Xiaotao muttered to himself, then looked up at Liu Lixue and said seriously, "Comrade Liu Lixue, I have a glorious task for you!"
Night falls, at the security office of the Industrial University.
Da Zeng leaned back in his chair and snored, while Huang Tao buried himself in the case files, flipping through them incessantly.
Drip
Just as the two were busy, the pager on the table suddenly went off.
Da Zeng suddenly opened his eyes, then picked up the pager and glanced at it.
"Return immediately!"
Seeing the two words on the screen, Da Zeng quickly stood up and said, "Let's go back."
Huang Tao listened without asking what was going on, and then walked out.
After greeting Section Chief Li, the sidecar drove out of the Industrial University and headed towards headquarters.
After the two got out of the car and arrived at the headquarters, they saw Jiang Han waiting at the entrance.
"Da Zeng, we've been waiting for you."
Da Zeng nodded, then asked, "What progress have you made over there?"
Jiang Han nodded. "We've made a discovery. Team Leader Zhang is reporting the situation in the conference room."
"Oh, right, Section Chief Zhao from the Ninth Department is here too."
"Zhao Chuanjun?"
"Correct!"
The three of them quickly walked into the conference room as they talked.
"Da Zeng!"
Luo Yong nodded to the two men who entered, gesturing for them to sit down.
Not far away, Zhang Chao was talking to Zhao Chuanjun while holding a document.
The two men quickly fell silent upon seeing Da Zeng return, and then nodded.
The meeting room fell silent. Luo Yong nodded to Duomen, who quickly told San'er to close the door and then took meeting notes.
"Now that everyone's here, let's update on the progress."
"Da Zeng, have you seen that person?"
Zeng Keqiang shook his head, "No, I didn't meet him because I was afraid of alerting him. But I went through the proper procedures. People at the university, whether they were the president, the director, the teachers, or the students, all had a good impression of him."
"There are no flaws."
Zhao Chuanjun listened and looked at Da Zeng, nodding silently.
Having no flaws is the biggest flaw.
Even someone as strong as their leader, Yang Xiaotao, has a gluttonous habit. There's only one reason why someone seems to have no flaws: they're hiding their biggest weakness.
Huang Tao also spoke up, "I checked the school's files. The person who recommended him to the college was a professor from an industrial university named Liu Hong. This professor had also studied in Britain, but he studied humanities. Other details are still under investigation."
"The other party must have contacted Liu Hong and was admitted to the Industrial University through a recommendation."
"What about the review process?"
Luo Yong asked, and Huang Tao took out his notebook, opened it, and said, "The review was done jointly by the University of Foreign Trade and the University of Technology, and no problems were found."
Luo Yong didn't speak, but looked at Zhang Chao beside him and said, "Tell me about the investigation."
"it is good!"
Zhang Chao took out his notebook and said, "Jiang Han and I went to the other party's hometown today, inquired with the local departments, and visited the surrounding residents."
"It's been too long, things have changed, and it took us a lot of effort to find an old lady."
"The old man is over eighty years old and his memory is not very clear."
"Fortunately, her father was a servant in the Wang family, so I have some recollection of him."
"According to the old man, the Wang family had already moved overseas before the liberation, and the Wang family was a prominent family in the area, the kind of famous family."
"According to people who used to work for the Wang family, no one in the Wang family is a good person."
"It was common for them to beat and verbally abuse their employees. They even formed a security force and killed many people."
After Zhang Chao finished speaking, Zhao Chuanjun immediately sneered, "A leopard can't change its spots!"
"Mr. Yang's insistence was correct."
"Also, we need to be more meticulous in our review process."
Luo Yong didn't speak, but gestured for Zhang Chao to continue.
“We also learned about the Wang family’s situation from the local county annals, which basically matched what the old man said.”
"It's certain that Wang Jiahao's background is problematic."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Keqiang suddenly said, "When we were chatting with Principal Wang today, he said that this person has an extremely strong sense of patriotism."
"Now it seems that this sentiment is questionable."
Luo Yong nodded, and finally looked at Zhao Chuanjun.
"Section Chief Zhao, what does your General Manager Yang mean?"
Zhao Chuanjun said after hearing this, "Our boss Yang also thinks there's something wrong with the other party. They probably deliberately approached the printer to study it, hoping to gain access to Department Nine."
"Moreover, the other party also wants to enter the Ninth Department through blind dates, marriage and other means."
"So, Mr. Yang's idea is to lure the snake out of its hole and make the other party reveal their true colors!"
