Chapter 2872: New director

In the United States a few days later, in the suburb of Langley at the junction of Washington, DC and Virginia, there was a large commercial area that was the same as the rest of the United States. There were densely packed vehicles parked around, only a wide tree belt separated the peeping eyes. This is the famous headquarters of the US Central Intelligence Agency. The largest intelligence agency in the United States is also the chief coordinating agency for America's huge intelligence system.
A very ordinary black man walked into a nearby cafe. He was dressed in a gray suit, bald, and wearing glasses. He looked ordinary, like a small employee of a certain company. Few people know that he is one of the important figures in the CIA, code-named K.
After sitting down, Mr. K ordered a waffle and a cup of coffee at random, and began to read the newspaper in his hand. But when he put down the newspaper, there was another person in front of him. Lin Rui said hello calmly, "Good morning."
Mr. K frowned slightly, but still nodded, "Why are you here?"
"This is not your office building, it's just a cafe. There are not so many restrictions." Lin Rui shrugged. "Hurry up and finish, I'm looking for something to do with you."
Mr. K looked at Lin Rui suspiciously, and walked out of the cafe with him after he finished his coffee.
"What's the matter?" Mr. K whispered.
"Have you heard that the US military will launch a new round of counter-terrorism operations in Africa?" Lin Rui looked around and whispered.
Mr. K's face changed slightly, "This is confidential."
"We have the authority. In fact, we are a military contractor with in-depth cooperation with the US military. Regarding the outsourcing tasks of this military operation, we will also participate in bidding and bidding like other companies." Lin Rui smiled slightly.
"Michelle asked you to come, what do you mean?" Mr. K sneered.
Lin Rui looked at him and said, "We need to take down this project and become the main contractor of this project."
"This is impossible. You also said that this requires bidding. Besides, this requires military approval." Mr. K shook his head. "You have to find people in the Pentagon, not me."
Lin Rui smiled, "Forget it, Mr. K. We all know that this is not just about the Pentagon. Your intelligence department also has enough influence. And we are not Lockheed Martin, or Boeing and Thor. Industry and commerce are often tens of billions of contracts. These outsourcing contracts are not of such high value and can be considered on the basis of comprehensive conditions. You know our capabilities in Africa, we are the most suitable choice."
"It's useless even if I approve of you, I don't have that much energy." Mr. K shook his head.
"Of course I understand, so I want to ask you to introduce someone." Lin Rui said slowly. "Some lady who can have enough influence."
"Director Gina Haspel? Ha, you are really brave enough." Mr. K smiled weirdly.
"Don't you Americans like this? What do you call it? The American dream, or the cowboy spirit of pioneering." Lin Rui also smiled, "Tell me, how can you help me introduce this lady? ."
Mr. K shook his head, "Haspel is not the kind of person who is easy to deal with. He joined the CIA in 1985 and is a senior agent. He has extensive overseas work experience, has served as the stationmaster of overseas workstations for many times, and has been awarded many times by the federal government. She is very tough, and she is not the kind of person who is easily moved."
"I firmly believe that anyone can be persuaded as long as they master the method." Lin Rui turned his head. "And I am now asking you about the relevant methods. Mr. K, I know you have some opinions on private military companies like ours. But you have to admit that we have accomplished the tasks you entrusted to us very well. You know our forces in Africa, so no one is more suitable than us to provide assistance for the US military’s counter-terrorism mission in Africa."
Mr. K was silent for a while, and slowly said, "I can tell you one thing, as for how to do it, you can do it yourself."
"Please speak." Lin Rui nodded.
"On March 13, President Donald announced that he would nominate the current CIA Director Mike Pompeo to succeed the current Secretary of State Tillerson. At the same time, he announced that he would nominate the current CIA Deputy Director Gina Haspel as the new term. Director of the CIA. If the nomination is approved, Haspel will become the first female director in the history of the CIA.
Mr. K whispered,
but there is still controversy over this nomination.

"Controversy? Is it because she is a woman?" Lin Rui frowned.
"It's not just because of this. In fact, the most controversial and attention-grabbing female director is her experience in participating in overseas secret interrogations and cruelly torturing prisoners." Mr. K frowned. "In 2002, the CIA set up the first overseas prison in Thailand. Haspel is the main person in charge of the prison. Her task is to interrogate suspected al-Qaeda terrorists.
It is said that the operation code at the time was Maoyan, notorious for the cruel incidents of prisoner abuse. According to reports, the torture carried out by Haspel and his colleagues included depriving prisoners of sleep, imprisoning prisoners in coffins, and waterboarding—forcing the prisoners to pour water into their mouths. A prisoner received water boarding 83 times in a month and nearly died.
He was also hit with his head on the wall, causing one eye to go blind, and he was not let go until it was proven that there was no valuable information. The brutal interrogation in the prison lasted until 2005 and has been recorded on video. In 2005, the CIA launched another controversial project-destroying past prisoner abuse videos, and Haspel, who had returned to work at headquarters at the time, began to take charge of this work again. "
"Sounds, it really looks like what you did." Lin Rui smiled calmly.
Mr. K lowered his voice and shouted, "Listen, we are professional agents, a group of people living in the shadows. What we do can hardly be regarded as fair and honest, but these bad things have to be done by someone. Dealing with very things, Sometimes it must be very tricky, not to mention that you seem to be very clean."
"Of course we are not clean. We are full of the smell of blood and gunpowder, but we don't need to emphasize how clean we are." Lin Rui shrugged, "Say, what can you do for help."
"There is some internal evidence that has fallen into the hands of the media. These things are very sensitive. Once they are made public, they will be a big blow to the new director." Mr. K whispered, "If you can prevent these things from being made public , Maybe I can arrange for you to meet with Director Haspel.
You know, it's hard to get involved in the American media, they are protected by the First Amendment. Moreover, the American people's opinion of the CIA is not only unfavorable, but also very bad. If the CIA fights with the media, the CIA will definitely lose. This kind of thing is very sensitive. As government employees, we cannot do it ourselves. But you don’t care. "
