"The U.S. soybean production is suspected to be significantly reduced, and international soybean futures prices continue to rise."
"US Department of Agriculture: Due to the weather, soybean production is expected to decrease by 15% this year."
"Soybean reserves are in urgent need? Many provinces have reported imbalances in the supply and demand of soybean oil, soybean meal and other products."
"Feed prices are high and meat prices are expected to be affected..."
"Horizontal comparison of two different reserve policies at home and abroad: the gap is too big!"
…
A few days later, news was released one after another. Sitting under the TV in the cafeteria and looking at those familiar names, Chen Nian couldn't help but laugh.
That’s it!
On the surface, it appears to be neutral and objective, but in fact it is purely a mouthpiece for capital and the enemy.
Data falsification, theoretical falsification, and even quoted external reports are all false...
But they don't care. After all, it's public knowledge. For that little dirty money, mom can give up. What else do they care about whether it's true or false?
Not only can you get sponsorship and investment, but you can also get a lot of traffic through such eye-catching speeches. Why not?
In their view, the facts are not important, nor are the consequences of wanton rumors. Catering to the preferences of certain groups in this era is important.
Don’t they just love to see this kind of thing? No matter when China suffers a loss, they will cheer for joy.
Even if it doesn't do them any good, in this way, they can say to others, "Look, I'll tell you you can't do it," and then look triumphantly at ordinary people who are either angry or anxious. , obtain great psychological satisfaction.
In one word, it's mean.
Zhang Rui is a typical representative among them, but this time, he rarely came out to speak, probably because he had been frightened several times before...
Chen Nian swallowed the fish balls on the plate in one gulp. The sensational reports on TV could not bring him the slightest fluctuation, because he knew that the current indulgence was only temporary, and in another month at most, he would be here. It's time to meet again.
All that needs to be done now is to slowly sharpen the pig-killing knife.
Of course, just because he's not worried doesn't mean that others aren't either.
Li Xiang, who was sitting opposite him, stared at the TV screen with a sad face. After a long time, he looked back and looked at Chen Nian who was eating a big meal and said:
"Fuck...Chen Nian, I feel like it's a bit serious this time."
"If the United States really cuts production by 15%, the entire soybean market will collapse."
"Fortunately, the staple food has not been affected at all... harm. We won't be able to afford meat after a while, right?"
Chen Nian rolled his eyes funny and did not answer directly. Instead, he asked:
"A 15% reduction in production, do you believe this? They also said it was due to the weather. According to the large-scale mechanized farming methods in the United States, what kind of weather would have had such a big impact? Did an asteroid hit the earth?"
"I don't know! I'm not familiar with this area, but I discussed it with other people, and they all seemed to say that the price of soybeans is going to rise - you know, Zhang Rui is doing futures and has already made a lot of money. Money.”
Li Xiang frowned. Obviously, he did not say this because he envied Zhang Rui for making money, but was worried that if even people like Zhang Rui could make money in this wave of price increases, then this time "soybean" "Crisis" is probably inevitable.
Looking at Li Xiang's expression, Chen Nian couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Isn't this guy already half an insider?
Even if you can't get confidential information, you should still have some news. Why are you so nervous?
Thinking of this, he asked:
"Didn't you participate in that plan? Don't you have any news? Wouldn't you know if I just asked?"
"It's just because there is news - well, I can't tell you the confidential content, but you should also be able to see that the officials are now thinking of various ways to stabilize soybean prices, but with little success."
"In the final analysis, on the one hand, I have no money, on the other hand, I have no goods...Hey, that's why I'm worried."
"It's better for you to be like this. Just focus on learning and research, and don't know or care about anything else. It will be much easier."
Hearing this, Chen Nian almost couldn't help but burst into laughter.
It seems that the work of the Intelligence Division is indeed done well...
Since Li Xiang, who has only half a foot in the intelligence department, thinks so, let alone others.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Nian suddenly had a guess in his mind:
Could it be that this kid is actually the one being taken advantage of?
Deliberately conveying some information to him that ignores us, and then letting him reveal it unintentionally...
Although Li Xiang has a good sense of confidentiality, he is not an experienced intelligence officer after all. Maybe an inadvertent detail or some subconscious action will expose the real information.
And just by taking advantage of this, the intelligence department can play a trick of Jiang Qian stealing books...
Damn it, it’s really possible when you think about it.
Because this kind of thing has happened more than once in China.
In the history of his previous life, there were two typical cases.
The first time was when the J-20 appearance drawings were leaked in 2004. The languid intelligence personnel of the 611 Institute directly disrupted the opponent's layout with an elimination plan, so that until the J-20 made its first flight, the opponent thought the J-20 was a J-20. Twenty is the J-10 plus version with big duck wings and weak stealth capabilities.
After that, Institute 713 used the same trick in the field of electromagnetic guns and set a big trap for the opponent's electromagnetic gun joint committee.
The final result is that the opponents who were originally leading in electromagnetic technology did not come back to their senses until 2020 and gave up the AC circuit line which was obviously the wrong route...
But at that time, the large amount of money they invested in frequency conversion and control systems had been completely wasted...
Obviously, what they are doing now is actually the same.
Even Li Xiang won't be the only one.
A large number of similar "peripheral intelligence agents" should have been released, with the purpose of disrupting the opponent's intelligence system and creating space for subsequent actions.
Thinking of this, Chen Nian sighed silently in his heart:
As expected, I have a dark heart when it comes to intelligence.
But this is not a bad thing for Li Xiang.
Although it was only a trivial test, if he could not survive this test or even had his initial confidence shaken, then there was really no need for him to work in such a department.
After all, it is one thing to say something with your mouth, but another thing to believe it in your heart.
Chen Nian swallowed the last mouthful of rice, raised his head and looked at Li Xiang and asked:
"So what are your plans now? If you continue to judge as you have, you might be able to make some money by engaging in futures at this time."
Hearing this, Li Xiang snorted and said with a bit of disdain:
"I'm willing to earn this money... but I don't have much ability and can't do much. I can only help refute any outrageous rumors I see on the Internet."
"Recently I heard that the United States is working on some technology to synthesize protein and starch, and a bunch of filial piety in China are taking advantage of this to attack our food security issues."
"It's said that we are not enterprising and innovate. We only know how to guard our own one-third of an acre. The backward agricultural technology leads to soybean problems and so on."
"I plan to take the time to check the information and educate them on the subject."
"What about synthetic starch? Although we can't do it, I definitely don't believe they can..."
"……Fine."
Chen Nian stood up silently without speaking.
He thought dumbfounded:
This thing is really not good for old Americans at this stage, but...
We are really good...
