Garrett frowned. It wasn't that he was opposed to this plan. On the contrary, this plan was secretly promoted by Hydra!
The Insight Project was first proposed in 1973 by Dr. Zola, who was within S.H.I.E.L.D. Speaking of this, we have to take out Operation Paperclip again. It was because of this operation that Dr. Zola entered the United States, thus avoiding trial and liquidation. Dr. Zola is the most capable scientist under the Red Skull. He is in charge of extracting energy from the Cosmic Cube and transforming the Winter Soldier. After Dr. Zola was captured, he was absorbed by Project Paperclip. Then Zola continued to absorb former Hydra members into SHIELD, and secretly rebuilt the new Hydra within SHIELD, and then caused an accident to kill Howard. But on the surface, he is a timid, cautious, and even a little neurotic short scientist.
After Zola proposed the plan in 1973, the then director Ms. Carter did not agree with the plan, but then she still asked Zola to complete the underlying algorithms required for the plan.
So, when an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent.
Talking back to Zola, after getting Director Carter's approval, Zola spent three years completing the underlying algorithm of the Insight Project, that is, in 1976. Zola was actually dead at that time. He was diagnosed with cancer in 1972. Director Carter reviewed the plan, then sealed it and used it as a trump card for S.H.I.E.L.D.
The so-called insight plan is actually a big data screening algorithm. Zola's algorithm can pass through all traces of a person's social actions, including but not limited to: voting methods, call records, consumption records, bank records, letters, idea mailboxes, online browsing records and message records, etc., in all aspects The data is aggregated, and an algorithm is then used to evaluate individual personality traits and determine whether they are potential criminals. Then based on the assessment results, all potential threats are eliminated.
Anyway, Zola said in the report to Ms. Carter at the time that they could determine those people who have criminal tendencies based on the results of the algorithm, and they could act in advance based on this tendency to nip crime in the bud!
I guess Ms. Carter did not agree to this plan at the time. The most likely reason was that the technology at the time simply could not complete such a large amount of data collection. In addition, it is an infringement on citizens’ privacy. Once this plan is announced, it will immediately attract opposition from countless people. Of course, it is more likely that the funds required for this plan are simply astronomical.
The U.S. government at the time would not have agreed.
When Alexander Pierce was in office, he failed to launch this plan for this reason.
Of course, Alexander Pierce's original intention of starting this plan could not be to prevent crime, it is impossible to imagine. Dr. Zola has always been responsible for this plan. How could this die-hard member of Hydra do such a good thing.
His underlying algorithm is indeed capable of this, but in fact, Zola intends to use this algorithm to find all the people who may threaten Hydra's cause!
After all, the underlying algorithm was completed by him, and it was easy for him to change one or two joint data.
With the development of social technology and the explosive struggle of the Internet, data collection has become extremely simple, because in today's world, people will automatically and consciously upload their information and daily activities to the Internet!
There is no need to collect it at all, the information is all online!
This certainly reduces the cost of insight planning! And it’s greatly reduced!
How could Garrett object to this plan? On the contrary, what he didn't understand was that at such a point in time, Nick Fury actually planned to launch this plan. This was abnormal! Although he knows that Nick Fury is a man who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, this does not mean that he is a member of Hydra!
What's more, if Nick Fury really took the bait, Pierce wouldn't have this expression.
"Nick Fury...what happened?" The only thing Garrett could think of was whether something happened to Nick Fury.
"Well...he finally realized that SHIELD had been infiltrated."
"Huh? Hasn't he already noticed this kind of thing?"
S.H.I.E.L.D. is hated...it's no secret. But from the day SHIELD transformed into an international organization, the organization began to accept infiltration from various countries around the world. But it was inevitable, and Ms. Carter had foreseen it when she brought SHIELD to this position. It is simply impossible to build an absolutely neutral organization with law enforcement powers covering most countries in the world with just a few idealists, and to maintain absolute independent power... This is simply impossible!
Impossible even in dreams!
The essence of politics is to live in harmony with the light!
As long as it does not affect the maintenance of world peace, some flaws are tolerated. Of course, Ms. Carter has not set up a protective wall at all. For example, the fact that the director of SHIELD has to come to the direct line of SHIELD has been strictly enforced. The secret agents of other countries and organizations will never be able to gain dominance within S.H.I.E.L.D.
This is also the reason why SHIELD has always been deeply tied to the United States, because the group of people who originally established SHIELD wanted to use the United States to check and balance other countries! To ensure that SHIELD's dominance is always in their hands!
Did Alexander Pierce really choose Nick Fury because he had no one else to choose?
Haha, wouldn't it be nice for a Hydra to continue to be the chief?
The real reason for making this decision is precisely because of the above set of rules!
Nick Fury is a native American! He comes from the lineage of Ms. Carter, who has a bright and upright family background! What other abilities, character, etc. are secondary!
This is the real reason!
When Nick Fury chooses the director's successor, he will also choose within this framework!
For example, Black Widow, Hawkeye or even Agent Hill are unlikely to appear on the succession list. Because Black Widow is from the Soviet Union, Hawkeye is a halfway monk, and Hill... this is equivalent to half a 25-year-old. On the contrary, the mediocre Phil Coulson has a huge advantage!
Three generations of his ancestors are all Americans. He was born and raised in the United States. He entered the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Academy right after graduating from college and has been working until now, and Nick Fury has been his direct boss from the beginning... …Is there anything more upright than this?
As for others... it's hard to squeeze into this succession line.
Let’s digress and get back to the topic.
"No...if only it were that simple."
"What went wrong."
Garrett was a little confused as to why Nick Fury found out the problem.
"Remember those pilots who went to launch nuclear bombs?"
"Isn't everything taken care of?" Garrett asked in surprise.
Those pilots all died due to various reasons!
This incident caused quite a stir in Washington! Even the Secretary of Defense was called to the White House by the president and scolded.
But the interesting thing is that these are not handled by Hydra at all.
Although they secretly helped a little bit, it was the big guys in the Security Council who took action!
For those big guys, since the nuclear bomb did not explode and the US government automatically cleared the ground, they would naturally not be stupid enough to jump out and take any responsibility. After all, this stuff is so taboo, even if it spreads to their own country, few people will support them! After all, it is to use nuclear bombs to clear a city with tens of millions of people. From a humanitarian perspective, no one will support such a decision.
So the big guys naturally want to pretend that this thing doesn't exist!
So those few little pilots will naturally disappear!
After all, they are the people who directly received the instructions from the Security Council and are direct witnesses! The United States will not directly release these witnesses to the world, but it does not prevent them from using these people to threaten the Security Council and make the countries behind them spend a huge price to settle this matter!
Therefore, in order to reduce losses, it is the best way to directly let these people disappear.
What? SHIELD still has so many witnesses?
Haha, can those people testify?
Once this is really done, SHIELD's international character will be instantly lost!
So is SHIELD still SHIELD?
In short, their mentality is stable and ruthless. Of course, the benefits that should be given must still be given, especially to those countries that usually need to care about the United States. It is simply impossible to take over this matter without giving benefits. As for those who don't deal with the United States at all... they won't deal with it at all, and they will give Mao benefits and make sympathetic speeches, that's all.
"Yeah, but the problem lies with these little pilots. I don't know what Nick discovered, but I'm sure he must know something, but he can't be sure! So he plans to launch the insight plan, but the scope Point the finger at S.H.I.E.L.D.!"
Garrett's face also became serious.
Once the Insight Plan is launched... without changing the underlying data of the Insight Plan, Hydra can't hide it at all!
No wonder Alexander Pierce came to Garrett at this time.
"what do you mean……"
"I know that the underlying algorithm of the Insight Project is in your hands." Pierce said.
Why does Garrett claim to be clairvoyant?
Because of his intelligence ability and the ability to predict a person's future!
As for where this ability comes from, it's naturally because of Zola's algorithm!
In the last moments of Zola's life, Garrett was responsible for monitoring him.
It can even be said that this algorithm was given to Garrett by Zola!
"I need you to make changes to the underlying algorithm!"
In Alexander's view, since Garrett owns the underlying algorithm, it should not be difficult for him to change the underlying algorithm.
Unexpectedly, Garrett had a strange look on his face, and then said, "I can't do it, Mr. Pierce."
"Huh?" Pierce was a little unhappy. If it weren't for the fact that this thing was too eye-catching when it appeared in SHIELD, Pierce wouldn't let Garrett run around with this thing. Now that the organization needs this thing, you actually use it as your personal belongings?
"No, no, you don't understand, Mr. Pierce. The basic logic of the underlying algorithm has always been mastered by Dr. Zola, and no one has cracked it! It can only be changed by Dr. Zola himself! This is also to prevent this system from being used by the enemy. .”
Pierce exploded instantly!
"Zola is so damn dead!!!"
"Well... In a sense, it is true. But not completely." Unexpectedly, Garrett made a violent comment at this time.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Do you know about the 'Conscious Memory' project?"
"Zola's ridiculous immortality plan? Didn't it fail?"
"Well... for others, this plan failed, but Zola succeeded for himself! He transmitted his consciousness to a supercomputer!"
"Wait...Zola is still alive?"
"Yes!" Garrett said with certainty: "Although I'm not sure if that counts as alive, he is definitely not dead."
Pierce looked at Garrett with dark eyes.
Garrett raised his hand and said to Pierce: "Don't look at me like that. You were not the leader at the time, Dr. Zola was. He ordered his location to be sealed and the news that he was still alive to be tightly sealed. I was just following the order. work."
Although Garrett is considered a subordinate of Pierce, according to the factional classification, he is not a direct descendant of Pierce. He was absorbed into S.H.I.E.L.D. by Zola.
"Why can I say it now?"
"Because the Insight Project is about to be activated." Garrett said frankly: "According to Dr. Zola's order, when the Insight Project is activated, it is the time to activate him. So naturally there is no need to hide it anymore."
"snort!"
Pierce snorted coldly, but had no intention of pursuing it. After all, this is Hydra. The reason why Hydra can divide indefinitely is because in this organization, each leader will only master some of the secrets within the organization. Even if one leader is captured, it will not cause the entire organization to collapse. .
Anyway, except for the Red Skull, no one can become the worthy master of Hydra.
"I don't want to know where he is, I just want to know if he continues to be loyal to our cause!"
"Of course, it was like this when he was alive. After death... he seems to have become more paranoid. This is the price of eternal life. He regards the cause of Hydra as his first priority. You can think of this as the paranoia of the computer system. "
"That's good!" Pierce nodded: "Then let Zola start his own plan!"
"No problem!" Garret nodded.
Watching Garrett walk out, Pierce's eyes glowed. Can a person who dreams of ruling the world allow someone to play tricks in front of him?
Of course it's impossible!
Dr. Zola and Garrett were both on Pierce's hit list.
but not now!
He still has many things to do.
First of all...it's all that crap!
As an important channel for communication between the United States and the Security Council, he has also suffered a lot of criticism and blame for this nuclear bomb incident. He needs a stable position, at least not to further rupture the relationship between the US government and the Security Council!
