Green's reaction was a little hard to understand, because he just frowned, clearly showing his helplessness.
Marina is different, Marina is very straightforward at this time.
"Can I report the information I got from you? If possible, I think at least France will not be in a hurry to take sides."
This is not the difference between a teacher and a lover, it is the difference between a retired man and a person in power.
"Okay, as long as this can be guaranteed, how much do you think is appropriate?"
It's not how much is enough, but how much is appropriate.
What this middleman does is really comfortable. While doing things for the good brother, he can also legitimately make money for his best friend. Moreover, the good brother has to say thank you sincerely.
It’s just a matter of using other people’s money to pick up your own girls. You can still be upright and get good results from both parties. Most people can’t achieve this state of mind.
Marina is seriously thinking about how much money she should ask for.
Two billion is given to the person who can decide the situation. Marina is just playing the drums at most. She has to have an idea of ​​how much she should pay.
"Two hundred million euros is enough, but you have to pay through your channels. In fact, you don't need to take the money, but since Sharman paid it, I think he might be happier if he paid it."
"Yes, he will only be happy if he pays, so what about you, teacher?"
Green whispered: "I don't want money, I can't collect money, because I will pass this information back in the form of intelligence. If the person who handles it can still get money because of this intelligence, it will be different."
"What's different?"
"It feels different. It is our duty to send intelligence back. But taking Sharman's money and then cooperating with the intelligence to send it back is bribery and treason. The situation and status of MI6 are not suitable for such a thing."
Gao Yi looked at Green in stunned silence. Green shrugged and said, "Is there any problem?"
"you……"
Gao Yi didn't know what to say, so he thought for a moment, and then said in an uncertain tone: "The people in MI6 have such strong professional ethics? They are dedicated to the country, and no one benefits from it for themselves?"
Green spread his hands again, and then he said helplessly: "Of course not. Now it is difficult for MI6 to obtain normal funds. A large number of personnel have been laid off, equipment... you all know these."
"What's the problem?"
"Well, the reason is very complicated. There are many internal and external factors. The internal factor is that MI6 was once too strong and many people were inflated, just like the FBI in the past. After the FBI was too strong and difficult to control, the United States established
After the CIA became too strong, too powerful, and too large, resulting in a serious decline in efficiency, the United States has now given more power to the Department of Homeland Security."
When talking about things in the UK, I use the example of the United States, because the example of the United States is too typical.
Green continued helplessly: "So as long as MI5 is deliberately supported, MI6 will naturally decline. This is the rule."
Gao Yidao: "Supporting MI5 is a balancing act for the UK, so where is the specific authority to assign tasks and allocate funds to MI5 and MI6?"
"Intelligence Committee."
"MI6 doesn't have anyone on the Intelligence Committee? Doesn't it have anyone to speak for MI6? Does everyone hope that MI6 will collapse immediately and disappear forever?"
"Of course that's impossible. MI5's strength now exceeds that of Sixth Service, but it's impossible to completely replace Sixth Service, and Britain will not allow this to happen."
"That's alright. Now that the Five Bureaus have surpassed the Sixth Bureau, even if it's for balance reasons, it's time to give the Sixth Bureau some resources to support it again."
Green shook his head and said: "No, it's far from time. This kind of mentality change will take a generation, at least twenty or thirty years. This is political inertia. When people realize that MI5 is too powerful, they need to re-
When it comes to balance, it must at least be that MI5 reaches the level before MI6."
After finishing speaking, Green waved his hand and said: "But now Britain's national strength is declining, finances are tight, expenditures on intelligence agencies are declining year by year, and even military expenditures have been cut, so there is no way MI5 can reach the heights of MI6. This is national strength."
It’s decided, so…”
"So you don't know how to shorten this process?"
Gao Yi was very surprised and said: "Why do you have to wait? Now is such a good opportunity. Why don't you let the people in the Intelligence Committee change their minds?"
Green frowned and said: "Britain's control over intelligence agencies is much tighter than you imagined. The transfer of interests is, no, impossible. No one dares to take this risk."
Gao Yi pointed at himself and said, "Does it count as a transfer of benefits if I give them money?"
Green was suddenly startled.
Gao Yi continued: "What do I do? The CIA knows, Sharman knows, everyone knows, but you don't know?"
Green waved his hand and said hesitantly: "Of course I know, I know it better than anyone else, but the problem is, if you give this money to MI6, and then try to trade up, giving a sum of money from an unknown source to the intelligence agency
Committee? That’s impossible, uh, wait.”
Gao Yi waited for Green to figure it out.
It's such a simple thing, why can't Green figure it out?
The difference between Green and Marina is that Green is a retired old man. He does not have any real power in his hands. At most, he can only serve as Gao's teacher and serve as an introducer.
The intermediary is not qualified and can only be introduced.
Why is it so easy to handle things on Marina's side? It's because Marina can make the decision on her own, and there are people behind her who can just give the message and get the money. It's so simple.
But Green can definitely let Gao Yi contact MI6 directly. The best way is to let MI6 and Gao Yi go to the Intelligence Committee to find people together. Gao Yi will pay the money directly.
Green's mind was a little rigid, and he had never thought about breaking away from the rut of an old man in MI6 and starting to work from a new identity.
What is the identity? Either a pure middleman or a person of Gao Yi.
Anyway, it can't be an old man from MI6.
But it is not convenient for Gao Yi to say this. Although Marina can say it, it is best to let Green think for himself.
If it doesn't work, Marina can still remind him.
Finally, Green said with trembling lips: "I...I...I thought of a very risky idea."
Gao Yi and Marina were puzzled.
Green looked at Gao Yi, then at Marina, and whispered: "How about you contact the Intelligence Committee directly?"
"Yes, but I don't have time now, and there are more people in the UK who are hostile to me. Whether I gave my information to An Deke or to Free Wind, I feel a little uncomfortable."
Green had an idea, but he was taking too big a step. It would not be a very risky idea to let Gao Yi contact him directly.
Gao Yi could only say: "You can definitely do it by yourself. The mark of MI6 cannot be removed from your body, but you are retired after all. Instead of letting Jenny be the mouthpiece, why don't you do it yourself?"
Green said slightly confused: "I am just the teacher responsible for teaching you how to be a killer, but what role do I want to be now?"
"It's just that... uh... you're still my teacher."
Gao Yi couldn't laugh or cry. Green's biggest problem was actually because of his current responsibilities.
Speaking of which, Teacher Green is quite good.
Gao Yi said calmly: "Go back to London and take the money with you. Don't rush to hand it over to MI6. The money is in your hands. You can give it to whoever you think should be given. In this way, all problems will be solved."
It’s solved, and it’s the easiest thing to do.”
Green nodded.
Gao Yi smiled and said: "It's the easiest thing to do with money. What's even simpler is, do you have any bad conspiracy against Britain? No, you just want to revive MI6. You will betray Britain in the future.
Any benefits? No, you will only get more opportunities for MI6 to make meritorious deeds through cooperation."
There is no need to say anything more about such a simple thing.
Green suddenly looked at Gao Yi and said hesitantly: "Then what should you do?"
"I?"
"You haven't mastered the basic skills of a killer. You are being hunted by the Andek Group. If you don't have an experienced person by your side to protect you, you will be in great danger. Just like this time, you and the people around you are in danger.
It’s not enough to cope with it!”
Gao Yi thought for a while and said: "Then I will accept your kindness and send someone to protect me."
Marina suddenly said: "No need, we have a good candidate."
The corners of Green's mouth twitched a few times.
If Green leaves, MI6's influence on Gao Yi will immediately drop a lot. Although they will continue to cooperate, will the effect of being together every day be the same as just talking on the phone?
Green immediately made up his mind. He could leave, but the hole he left must be filled.
"Okay, then you give me 200 million? Then someone will take over from me to continue teaching you, and of course, to protect you."
Gao Yi didn't bother to talk nonsense. He immediately dialed Sharman again. After Sharman got through, he said calmly: "Brother, if you give me another 400 million euros, France can basically guarantee that they won't be in a hurry."
It will take some time for the UK to express its stance."
It doesn't matter if you change the CIA, MI6, or any other intelligence agency, who can be as efficient as Gao Yi?
Anyway, it was this time point and this opportunity that allowed Gao Yi to catch up with everything and put it all together, so he could be astonishingly efficient.
What can Sharman say? He is just pleasantly surprised.
It is unrealistic to say that Shaman regarded Gao Yi as his only savior. After all, his strength and financial resources were very strong.
But with Gao Yi's efficiency, a few phone calls, and just half an hour, he had basically finished the matter for him. In this regard, all the people under Shaman combined could not compare.
