Ten million was used to catch Crawford, five thousand was reduced by three thousand, and a mere twenty million was enough to get Panetta.
He is the highest-ranking CIA boss, but his vision is not that high.
Ever since Panetta gave Crawford a ghost, Gao Yi knew that it was definitely done, 100% done. If he could meet Panetta again and truly make him one of his own, then many more
Make some money, let Panetta enter the pit and close the lid, and you will have an additional deputy director partner of the CIA.
Don't talk about moles, it's hard to hear how many moles there are.
Pulling the tiger's skin to pull the flag, and finally tying the tiger to the flagpole, this business is definitely possible.
Now, Panetta has taken the initiative to ask his partners if they want to change people. This is because people on the intelligence line are cautious and know that the informants who have been in single-line contact cannot be changed easily. Otherwise, Panetta will definitely change directly to his own.
Confidant.
Now Gao Yi must make Joelson Panetta's confidant.
But at this time, if you want Joelson to work directly in Panetta's hands first, and make Panetta think that Joelson is reliable, you have to use a little bit of skill.
Open the history book, no, it is more convenient now. Search online, there are thousands of techniques or mature cases for reference.
Gao Yi knew a lot of idioms related to employing people, such as visiting the thatched cottage three times, the Duke of Zhou spitting food, a horse's bones worth a thousand pieces of gold, and so on.
The way Americans think is different from that of the East, and the standards for identifying talents are also different. However, human nature is the same in both the East and the West, but Americans are just a little rougher and more direct.
So to keep Joelson, recommend Joelson, and let Panetta reuse Joelson, the first thing to do is that Gao Yi must not recommend Joelson.
If you want to promote, you must first suppress it; if you want to welcome it, you must first reject it.
"Substitute? It's best to substitute if possible."
Gao Yi first catered to Panetta's overtures with a very welcoming and sure tone.
Panetta was about to speak, but Gao Yi continued quickly: "Jolson is a bit rigid. His ability... is okay, but he doesn't know how to adapt. Many things can be easily solved with a little modification.
, but he is too stubborn and rigid, which is not conducive to our long-term cooperation."
Gao Yi's tone was slightly dissatisfied, but he did not say that Joelson had any fatal flaws, and the shortcoming of stubbornness and rigidity should be regarded as an advantage on Panetta's side.
My arsenic, his honey.
For Gao Yi, it was rigid and unflexible, but for Panetta, it was just sticking to the principles and refusing to join in the same trend with Gao Yi.
This is an advantage, this is a huge advantage.
But that's not enough. Panetta can still achieve this if he sends a confidant who is extremely loyal to him and has complete control over him as his contact person with Gao Yi.
So Gao Yi continued: "But time is too tight this time. We are about to take action. Temporary substitution may cause our action to be delayed. Is this okay? Let Joelson cooperate with me to complete this action first. The action is over.
Can I change someone immediately after that?"
If you are not satisfied, you can still accept it. You don’t have to change your generals at the last moment, but you must drive them away afterwards.
When Panetta heard this, he felt why Joelson was so suitable to be this informant all the time.
"Well, yes, we can discuss the choice of informant in the future. For long-term cooperation, the choice of this informant is still very important."
"Okay, then we will contact you at any time."
The phone was hung up, and Gao Yi let out a sigh of relief.
Joelson couldn't help but said: "You...how...if I am replaced, I might die!"
At the beginning, Panetta used a positive tone that he could substitute immediately if he could not. However, after Gao Yi complained a few words and agreed in principle to substitute, Panetta also changed his attitude that he could substitute immediately.
An attitude of discussion.
This is a subtle change in mentality, and the ancient Eastern wisdom is once again embodied without any trace.
The problem is that Jolson doesn't understand.
Now Joelson is not only worried that he will be kicked away by Gao Yi and Panetta, but he is also worried that Panetta will silence him.
Gao Yi had to explain. He said to Joelson: "If I say this, your status as an informant with a single line of contact will be stable. If I say there is no need to change people, you will be fine. Believe it or not, Panetta immediately
Send someone to take your place immediately?"
It’s really just a different way of thinking, not a gap in IQ, so after Gao Yi reminded him, Joelson thought for a moment and finally said: "Oh, I understand!"
Jolson looked like he suddenly understood, while Luka frowned just now, but when Jolson said that he understood, he relaxed his brows almost at the same time, and said with a surprised look: "Yes, that's the case,
sharp!"
Luca is not good at flattering, so his praise is sincere. Although he is guarding Feng Biao, he will never flatter others. To be precise, he refuses to flatter others.
Gao Yi said seriously to Joelson: "The road has been paved for you and the conditions have been created for you. Can you get Panetta's approval? Can you change from being under Crawford to being under Panetta?"
Confidant, this depends on your ability. Frankly speaking, if you don’t perform well, my attitude here will be useless. And if I tell Panetta that no one can do it except you, you will probably die very quickly.
.”
Joelson nodded repeatedly and said: "I understand, I understand. I used to be a member of Crawford and had nothing to do with Panetta. Whether I can become a member of Panetta in the future depends on my performance."
"Take out your phone. Panetta should be calling you. Do you know what to say?"
Joelson quickly went to the refrigerator and took out his mobile phone, and then he said to Gao Yi, "How do you say it?"
"One principle is that you can never become a friend of us. If you want Panetta to trust you, you must be an ordinary subordinate of Crawford with no backing or foundation. But if you follow Crawford, you will only
People who can follow him to the end. If Panetta asks you tentatively how to deal with Crawford, remember, you must not add insult to injury, you must protect Crawford to the death!"
Joelson said in astonishment: "Why? I want to put in a good word for Crawford?"
At this moment, Joelson's phone rang, and sure enough, Panetta called Joelson without hesitation.
Gao Yi said hurriedly: "No one likes a traitor who sells his goods for glory! Traitors must die! Remember my words, remember!"
Joelson nodded and answered the phone.
As expected, Panetta asked Joelson a lot of questions, especially what his plan was and how Crawford did it. But regarding the entire operation, Panetta
The questions were not very detailed, but later Panetta began to ask about Joelson's resume.
Panetta wants to get Joelson's information and resume. It's just a matter of one sentence. Panetta can definitely know everything that Joelson has done from joining the CIA to today. Now Panetta doesn't
I know, it's just because he didn't pay special attention to Joelson before.
In the past, Joelson was just a consumable. Now, whether he can upgrade from a consumable to an accessory depends on Joelson's ability.
Even if Panetta asked Joelson to contact him before, the call did not last more than two minutes. He just asked briefly to find out what was going on. This was the case even after leaving Crawford aside.
Now that Panetta is making this call, he is willing to spend more than ten minutes asking Joelson for some personal resume that can be accessed at any time, which shows that he has already developed a strong interest in Joelson.
I asked Joelson what school he went to, how he joined the CIA, and what kind of work he had done. But when Joelson answered these questions normally, Panetta suddenly said something harsh.
"What do you think of Crawford?"
Joelson was silent. He didn't know how to answer, so he looked at Gao Yi.
Gao Yi spread his hands and asked Joelson to answer.
That is silence, and silence is also an attitude.
After about five seconds of silence, Joelson finally said: "Mr. Crawford is my boss, and he is a good boss."
He answered politely and said nice things, but the few seconds of silence showed that this was not what Joelson really thought.
Without any special change of tone, Panetta said suddenly: "How much did you charge?"
Joelson was silent again. He did not panic, but after ten seconds of silence, he whispered: "I didn't charge any money, sir, I didn't charge a dollar!"
Gao Yi gave Crawford 10 million, but he didn't give it to Joelson. The problem was, Crawford didn't give any point to Joelson.
It’s hard to imagine and hard to understand.
Panetta said calmly: "So how much did Crawford charge?"
Crawford received 10 million, and Joelson watched the whole process. He knew clearly that if he said it now, Crawford would be dead.
This time Joelson said without hesitation: "No, he didn't take the money!"
There can be no hesitation or hesitation this time. Even if Panetta has all the evidence of Crawford's crime, this evidence must not come from Joelson. All he has to do is to remain silent and be absolutely loyal.
Panetta said calmly: "You know I can find out easily."
"No!"
Joelson's performance was too upright, but that's what he wanted.
Loyalty that is not absolute means absolute disloyalty. If you want to win the favor of a big shot, you must not be a traitor. This is an absolute principle.
Jolson didn't say much, but he was firm.
But Panetta is in a high position, and he knows how to quickly use words to get out of Jolson's words. This is the advantage of being a superior, as long as Jolson has to answer his questions.
"Based on my understanding, Bu San who cooperates with you will definitely give you money. You said it is wrong for you to confiscate the money. So tell me, what benefits did Bu San promise you, and how did he give it to you?"
You can confiscate it, but it will definitely benefit you, so tell me now.
Joelson took a breath of air. He hesitated for a long time and finally said: "I didn't, no, I...really didn't charge any money."
"Tell the truth, don't insult my intelligence."
Listening to Panetta's words, Joelson took a breath and whispered: "Mr. Crawford and I will benefit from it afterwards, but we are not collecting money now, no!"
Panetta was silent for a moment, and then he said softly: "Come back. I have something to tell you. The plan in Yemen is about to be carried out. There is no time to waste, so be quick."
If you just give instructions, you can tell on the phone that Panetta wants Joelson to go back, which will be a face-to-face test. In other words, Joelson has officially entered Panetta's eyes.
Now the CIA has Gao Yi's people from top to bottom.
