Nine p.m.
Counselor Wang and Director Zhao finally returned to the Boston office of the New York Consulate General.
At this time, they were all smiling and excited.
The successful return of the Dunhuang scriptures from Stein's Secret Chamber, which had been lost overseas for more than a hundred years, has caused a huge sensation in the domestic cultural circle.
When the batch of Dunhuang Buddhist scriptures arrives in Beijing tomorrow, it will definitely cause an even greater sensation.
As participants in this incident, Counselor Wang and their work have been highly recognized by the ministry.
From afternoon to now, they have received several calls from their superiors.
On every phone call, they were complimented with praise.
Can such a result not make people feel excited?
As soon as he returned to his residence, Director Zhao said excitedly:
"Old Wang, this kid Xiao Ran is really awesome, he can always create one miracle after another."
"He has done all the things that others would not even dare to think about these days. It is simply amazing!"
Upon hearing this, Counselor Wang immediately nodded with deep sympathy.
"Who says it's not the case! This kid is indeed a god, always capable of things that others cannot!"
"To be honest, I really hope he stays on the east coast of the United States and doesn't go back to Los Angeles."
"In that case, this kid will definitely be able to create more miracles, and we can also participate in it."
Before he finished speaking, Director Zhao nodded in agreement.
"That's what I think too, that's what makes it fun!"
After chatting for a few words, Counselor Wang suddenly changed the topic and whispered:
"Old Zhao, please make arrangements and find a room that is absolutely safe. I have something to do."
As he spoke, he unconsciously pressed his coat pocket lightly.
Director Zhao paused for a moment, then understood instantly, and his eyes shone with excitement.
He knew that Xiao Ran must have secretly handed something to Counselor Wang.
Because of this, Counselor Wang made this request.
"Okay, Lao Wang, come with me."
Director Zhao nodded and said.
Then, he took Counselor Wang to the study next to him.
After a while, Counselor Wang was already in a small secret room.
This secret room is very small, less than ten square meters, and the furnishings in the room are also very simple.
However, it is absolutely safe here.
There are no monitoring and listening devices in the secret room, and all electronic signals can be blocked.
Even using an infrared thermal imaging camera, it is impossible to detect the situation inside the secret room.
At this time, Counselor Wang was the only one in the room.
Director Zhao, who had brought him over, was standing in the study outside, guarding the secret door of the secret room.
After sitting down in the secret room, Counselor Wang first looked at the environment inside the secret room.
Then, he took out the digital memory card from his coat pocket, inserted it into a new mobile phone, and began to check the intelligence information stored in the card.
The next moment, he suddenly jumped up from his chair as if he was electrocuted.
At the same time, his eyes suddenly widened, and his eyeballs almost flew out of their sockets!
"How is it possible that Lincoln Laboratory's research report on building a new generation strategic anti-missile system for North America is possible? Where did Xiao Ran get this top-secret information?"
Counselor Wang murmured excitedly, his hand holding the phone trembling slightly.
Before he finished speaking, he looked at the top-secret information on the phone screen again, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely bright smile broke out on his face.
Soon, ten minutes passed.
After quickly reading all the information, Counselor Wang could not calm down for a long time and froze on the spot.
His hands grasped the edge of the desk with unusual force, the veins were exposed, and they were trembling.
It was caused by excitement and was a true reflection of his turbulent inner world.
He knew the value of this top-secret information very clearly.
If this top-secret information is true, the United States will use this technical information to build a new generation anti-missile system.
For China, which has secretly mastered this information, the North American strategic anti-missile system is a sieve, full of loopholes!
One day, if the two countries really meet each other at war, the result can be imagined!
Even if there is no war between the two countries, the value of this top-secret information is immeasurable!
After a long time, Counselor Wang's mood calmed down a little, and his hands finally stopped shaking.
Immediately afterwards, he quickly pulled out the digital memory card from his mobile phone and held it in his hand, fearing that the memory card would fly away.
After a pause, he suddenly took the glasses cloth lying next to him and wiped off all the fingerprints on the digital memory card.
Then he stood up and took off his suit, then his shirt.
Then he took the shirt, gently opened a hidden pocket inside the collar of the shirt, and hid the digital memory card inside.
In this way, as long as you wear a tie, no one will notice the existence of this digital memory card.
Coupled with the special status of diplomats, relying on diplomatic immunity can basically ensure that everything is foolproof.
After doing this and checking again and again, Counselor Wang put on his shirt, suit, and tie.
Then, he began to destroy the new mobile phone brought from China, completely breaking the entire mobile phone into a pile of pieces.
ten minutes later.
Counselor Wang just came out of the secret room, his expression returned to normal.
As soon as he returned to the study outside, he immediately said:
"Old Zhao, I will return to New York early tomorrow morning. Several comrades from the mission to the United Nations are going back to China to report on their duties. I have to go back and make arrangements."
"I leave it to you to handle matters in Boston. Please cooperate fully with Xiao Ran and ensure his safety at all costs!"
"If you encounter any trouble, please notify the Consulate General and Embassy in New York in a timely manner and we will fully cooperate."
Upon hearing this, Director Zhao immediately understood what it meant.
He didn't ask any more questions, just nodded firmly.
"Don't worry, Lao Wang, we will leave matters in Boston to us."
"As for Xiao Ran's safety, you don't have to worry. Even if it takes my life, I will definitely protect that kid!"
Counselor Wang looked at him and then nodded slightly.
After a few more discussions, they walked out of the study.
At the same time, in the Ritz-Carlton Presidential Suite.
Xiao Ran was conducting a live broadcast and was chatting with many fans in the live broadcast room.
After the live broadcast started, he briefly introduced the heavyweight art transaction with Prince William and informed everyone of the good news of the successful transaction.
In fact, all fans already knew about this deal through several previous live broadcasts.
However, many fans are skeptical about whether this deal can be successful.
Because everyone knows how important the batch of Dunhuang scriptures in Stein's secret chamber is.
It was generally agreed that Prince William and the rest of the Brits would not agree to the deal without having their heads kicked by donkeys.
However, everyone underestimates the importance of Shakespeare's manuscripts and the historical documents of the Plantagenet family.
Especially the latter is of great significance to the British royal family!
From the perspective of the British royal family, the value of the Plantagenet family historical documents is obviously higher than the batch of Dunhuang scriptures in Stein's secret room.
Because of this, this heavyweight art transaction was successfully concluded.
After hearing the good news reported by Xiao Ran, several live broadcast rooms immediately became excited.
"I'll go! You actually did this, you're so awesome!"
"I didn't say anything. When you return to the capital, I will treat you to a big dinner."
“Whether it’s delicious food or beautiful girls, all purchases belong to my buddies!”
Beixinqiao Daniel Wu said excitedly.
Hearing this, the live broadcast room suddenly burst into cheers.
"You can be considered a buddy. It's not just that there are many people but it's fun. I don't have high requirements for a buddy, just send me two girls with fair skin, beauty and long legs!"
"How can such a good thing be without me? My friend's requirements are not high. Just eat at the Beijing Hotel and the Eighth Building in Beijing!"
Listening to the commotion, Xiao Ran couldn't help but laugh.
"Young Master Wu, this is what you said. Don't deny it when the time comes. We won't agree to it!"
"Forget about beauties, I really don't like those vulgar fans around you."
“I’ve only dreamed about the various delicacies in Beijing. I really want to eat them all.”
After a few jokes, everyone returned to the topic.
"Xiao Ran, you are so awesome at getting back all the Dunhuang scriptures in Stein's secret room this time!"
"It would be great if we could get those national treasures from the David Foundation back sometime!"
The welder Qiu Mingshan said expectantly.
Before the words were spoken, everyone had already responded.
Xiao Ran smiled and then said:
"Don't worry, everyone, we have to do it step by step, brother, I will never let go of the treasures of the David Foundation!"
"If nothing else happens, I will go to the UK next year to see if there is any chance to get those national treasures back."
After hearing this, several live broadcast rooms immediately went crazy.
After chatting for a while, Lao Shan's voice suddenly came over.
"Xiao Ran, let me tell you something. The expert team that will identify the batch of Dunhuang scriptures has been confirmed. We are just waiting for the batch of Dunhuang scriptures to arrive in Beijing."
"Everyone was very excited to be able to authenticate this batch of Dunhuang scriptures. They wished they could rush to the Capital Airport immediately and wait for the special plane to land!"
With that said, Mr. Shan introduced some members of the expert group.
Without exception, these appraisal experts are the top experts in the country, and all of them are famous.
They are either from the Forbidden City and the National Museum of China, or from the National Museum of China, as well as top universities such as Peking University.
Following Shan Lao's introduction, the several live broadcast rooms suddenly burst into exclamations and became more lively.
After he finished the introduction, Xiao Ran immediately said with a smile:
"Hahaha, that's perfect, but you don't have to worry, there's no need to rush to the Capital Airport so early."
"It will take a few hours for the special plane to arrive in Beijing. By then, it won't be too late for you all to rush to the airport."
"I will participate in the appraisal and reception via video tonight, and I will also ask for your guidance at that time..."
Before he finished speaking, many fans in the live broadcast room had already responded.
"Xiao Ran, can you live broadcast the process of receiving this batch of Dunhuang scriptures? We also want to witness this scene."
"That's right, Xiao Ran. When the special plane arrives, it will be daytime in China. Everyone has time and wants to witness this historic moment!"
After hearing everyone's request, Xiao Ran paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
"Since everyone wants to witness this historic moment, then I will fulfill everyone's wish and have a live broadcast!"
Following his words, several live broadcast rooms immediately became excited again.
