As for the Ouyang family who has remained neutral all this time, in Yuwen Wuqing's view, that old geezer is already senile. He still wants to be a fence sitter, waiting for the real storm to come. We'...Chapter 368: Military Research
Back in his own bedroom, Ye Fan lit a cigarette and took a puff, thinking to himself, "What the heck is going on How can I face other girls now" But then he thought again, Luo Xueyan already had deep aversion and hatred for him. Since things were like this, their relationship would probably become even more strained.
He shook his head, refusing to dwell on those matters any longer. Afterward, he reopened his computer.
Although he was feeling a bit tired at this point, he couldn't shake the uneasy feeling that had been growing in his heart since reading some news articles earlier.
Ever since Ye Fan learned that Lin Bing had gone to South Africa, he'd felt a knot of unease in his heart. While the Dragon Girl's strength was undeniable, even many of her skills were taught by him, making her almost like his half-disciple. However, knowing full well that South Africa was a dangerous place, he couldn't shake the feeling that this mission wasn't simple.
Just now, he surfed the internet through a VPN to access foreign websites and checked some news from South Africa. Although there weren't any major news stories and domestic media reported on them rarely, an information piece on Weibo caught his attention.
South Africa has discovered a new mineral vein that is highly likely to contain very rare precious metals.
Just such a brief message, yet Ye Fan smelled something unusual. Having carried out numerous missions in South Africa, he knew g-country and even their military leader, Kunka, inside and out. The entire economy of g-country, or rather, Kunka's main source of income, was supported by these large and small mineral resources.
And with the entry of Western nations' influence in recent years, especially that of a certain conglomerate from a particular country, conducting various surveys under the guise of providing basic aid in South Africa. Almost all known major mineral resources are now controlled by this conglomerate from that country.
Kunka's hands, those mines, had been exploited for years and were now nearly depleted. Faced with the massive military expenditure, he reached out to Western countries in one hand, seeking aid through resource exchange. On the other hand, he secretly explored new ore veins.
Thinking about it now, that message is really thought-provoking. Because the message was posted on Weibo by an underground organization in China.
It seems like a lot of big players are after this mine. The information blockade is reaching such extremes, it's quite impressive. This underground organization must have gotten wind of the news from somewhere. Since they lack the strength to participate in mining operations, they secretly released this information.
Luckily, Ye Fan found this piece of information in the complex and intricate sea of data, which allowed him to roughly gauge the situation.
He took out his U disk and plugged it into the computer. The computer quickly installed a brand new system. The opened webpage was also different from before. This system was developed by the organization Ye Fan used to be in, and it was considered cutting-edge internationally, although it was only used on a small scale. Although Ye Fan had left the organization, he kept this system in his possession and it wasn't reclaimed.
He logged into several domestic intranet websites and viewed information that foreign media would not report. He wanted to use this to find some internal trends.
However, to his disappointment, recently the internal communications seemed calm, with no reports about South Africa. He was not satisfied and opened the military's internal website again.
Just then, a piece of information in an inconspicuous location caught his attention. Domesticly soaring group company has partnered with United Airlines in East Africa to launch civil aviation services between East Africa and European countries.
Upon seeing this message, Ye Fan frowned slightly.
A piece of business information appearing on a military intranet website is intriguing. Even if it's tucked away in an inconspicuous corner and worded vaguely, its presence raises questions.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Ye Fan immediately used the internal search engine to look up the domestic Ao Xiang Group company, but he found that all the information about this group company was blank. That is to say, it's not that there is no information about this group company, but it has been blocked, at least Ye Fan, who has already left the organization, cannot query it.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Fan began searching for information about the Soaring Group on the civilian network. He found information about the Soaring Group on the civilian network, but not much. The main business it operated in had nothing to do with aviation.
This piece of information caught Ye Fan's attention. After several fruitless searches, he picked up his phone and dialed a number.
The phone was answered quickly, and a steady voice with a hint of surprise came through.
"Young Master Ye, why are you calling me at this hour Is something the matter" A puzzled voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Check on the Aoxiang Group for me," Ye Fan said nonchalantly.
There was a moment of silence on the phone before a deep voice spoke, “What made you suddenly interested in this” However, despite saying that, the sound of opening a computer could be heard over the phone.
After about three minutes, the person on the phone let out a surprised exclamation before saying, "The Ao Xiang Group was founded in 2003. The chairman is Zhou Xiaoping. They mainly focus on research and development as well as sales of rubber pipes, and also research and production of special materials."
That man continued to speak, but Ye Fan cut him off directly and said, “Help me check his background.”
Over the phone, there was a clattering sound of keyboard keys being pressed. Then, after a brief silence, a surprised voice came through: "Wow, this company has military ties."
"Which unit" Ye Fan seemed to have guessed this a long time ago, he asked in a deep voice.
"The Armaments Research Institute," the person said, mentioning a unit rarely spoken of outside. However, this unit had little influence in civilian circles. Only those who had come out from the organization knew how terrifying it truly was.
Some of the technologies it researches have already surpassed current market technology by decades. Even some cutting-edge military technologies reported in the media are outdated technology in this unit. The seemingly simple name hides something that ordinary people can't imagine. Moreover, it has a secret internal name: Dagger!
Before joining the Dragon's Fang, almost all the equipment used by the Dragon's Fang was specially customized by the Military Knives Organization.
Even the person on the other end of the phone was shocked. The mastermind behind the Soaring Group turned out to be such a terrifying organization.” “Okay, I understand,” Ye Fan nodded slightly, without waiting for the other party to speak, he hung up the phone directly.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan carefully pondered the value of this information. Soaring Group, it turned out to be a facade for the Military Research Institute, but why were they going to establish an airline in East Africa this time Was Lin Bing's mission related to Soaring Company
Because Ye Fan had collaborated with the Armaments Research Institute many times before, he was still quite familiar with the organization. He also knew that the direct leader of this organization was the biggest figure within the system. There were many units under him. Some units were even unknown to him, while some units were directly public in the civilian sector, belonging to a behemoth. The power it contained could only be understood by those truly at the top!
