Paul smiled and refuted Mandy, stretched out his hand to Long Zhan and introduced: "Paul Murray, reporter of Discovery Channel, nice to meet you."
"dragon."
Long Zhan only said one word, his attitude was neither cold nor hot.
Journalism is a double-edged sword. Sometimes it can bring you unexpected benefits, and sometimes it can also bring you trouble.
You can understand Long Zhan's attitude, but you will never have a close relationship with them.
"I'm glad the MP didn't hand over a wild boy."
Mandy's words were insinuations, Paul curled his lips after hearing this and said: "It seems that you investigated me very thoroughly. I hope you didn't confuse me with my father. I am not a politician.
Actually, I don’t have any conspiracy purpose, I just want to visit your team members. Of course, it would be better if I can follow you and participate in one or two operations."
"They are not my team members."
Mandy pointed at Long Zhan and then said: "The person you want to interview is right in front of you. You can ask him whether he agrees to your interview."
Hearing that Long Zhan was the person he was looking for, Paul immediately became interested and couldn't wait to ask: "Long, are you interested in cooperating? Find a place to be interviewed. It will only take up a little of your time."
"Sorry, I don't have time now. You can leave your phone number and I will call you when I have time." Long Zhan refused without hesitation.
If he wants to write an autobiography in 2000, Long Zhan might cooperate with Paul and write an autobiography like those great people, so that even after they die, they can leave a mark in history.
But now Long Zhan doesn't have that interest. He would rather make a fortune secretly than stand in the spotlight.
The reason why I left a phone number as a tail end is that if I secretly get the 10 million next, I may need the help of this "know-it-all".
If nothing is done, it will be easy to make an appointment when the time comes.
"Then can I request to follow the operation? Don't worry, I have received professional training and will never affect your operations." Paul changed direction.
"First-level combat troops are not allowed to have reporters accompanying the army, which is even more impossible." Long Zhan still refused.
"All right."
Paul found that this road was deadlocked, so he could only use the last trump card and said: "I know Steve Porter of Team E quite well. We often work together on their missions. Of course, we will not report it.
I know that you and Potter are the same kind of people, and you should come here to take over their mission. I am just curious about your views on this mission."
"No comment now!"
Long Zhan shook his head and joked: "Are you so interested in our mission that you actually become the second Sebastian Junger?"
Sebastian Junger: Afghan war documentarian and best-selling author of war books.
"I have this idea."
Paul did not hide it and proposed again: "I guess your mission may not be going well. If we can talk about it, maybe I can help you."
"Thank you, wait until I need it."
Long Zhan didn't want to continue talking, and he had almost finished chatting with Mandy, so he put down his spoon and stood up and said, "I'm full, Mandy, do you want to go together?"
"certainly."
Secrecy is the foundation of an intelligence worker, and Mandy did not want to continue arguing with reporters whose "exposure" was the foundation of their work, so she stood up and walked out with Long Zhan.

"This is my business card, you can find me at any time."
Paul was smart enough not to force him to stay, but chose to hand his business card to Long Zhan.
"OK, see you next time!"
Long Zhan took the business card and put it into his pocket, waved his hand and walked away.
8 o'clock in the evening.
A white bus drove into the base and stopped in the camp area where Team B was located.
The prepared members of Team B, plus Vanessa from the Cultural Support Team, and a group of 8 people, all loaded up their equipment and boarded the bus.
All the way to the 160th Special Aviation Regiment camp, converted to helicopter and set off overnight.
Kamal's house is located on the edge of Kabul city, and the surrounding residents are not densely populated.
Therefore, the helicopter did not land directly and rappel to the roof of the target house, nor did it adopt a short-range Y landing strategy.
Instead, the "ORP landing strategy" is used that is more concealed, safer, relatively conservative, and safer.
Can be translated as "observation preparation point landing"!
That is, when the helicopter was still about three to four hundred meters away from Kamal's house, it found an open area to land directly and let the team members disembark.
Then the action team members relied on night vision equipment to quietly move toward the target house.
In Kabul, the capital, where countless planes fly overhead every day, and people have long been accustomed to it, the sound of a helicopter appearing nearby will not attract too many people's attention at all.
Even if Kamal hears the sound of the helicopter, there is a high probability that he will not pack up and run away immediately.
Even if he runs away, it's okay!
There are drones flying in the sky, and every move around Kamal's house is monitored, and the situation can be fed back to the action team at any time.
At a distance of three to four hundred meters, the action team can quickly reach the target location.
In general.
The ORP landing strategy has two advantages: it can land directly without rappelling, which is safer, and it will not alert the target and is more concealed.
Some people from Long Zhan got off the helicopter and went all the way to the outside of Kamal's house. The intelligence analyst who controlled the drone found nothing unusual.
This means that Kamal is still in the house and the next action can continue.
It was just before 10 o'clock in the evening, and the windows and door cracks of Kamal's house were shining with light. It was obvious that the family was not sleeping yet.
"Operation Center, this is B1, do you have video of the target house?" Jason called over the radio.
"Received, B1, the reconnaissance and surveillance equipment is working normally and the target building has been locked." Diaz replied.
"How's the wide-angle view? Is there any movement?" Jason asked again.
"Currently, the thermal imaging information only contains you. The last communication on the monitored phone was still in the house. Kamal should not have left." Diaz replied. (To be continued)
