The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

Dunn then stayed in Neon for nearly a week. Although he would be mainly responsible for Victoria Harbour and Frog in the future, he had to start from scratch there, so he had to make adequate preparations in Neon before going there.

After all the necessary formalities were arranged, Dunn set Victoria Harbour as his first destination.

Although, in his capacity as a CIA agent, Dunn should be treated better on the island across the strait, for the time being, he did not want to have too much contact with them.

The main reason is that it is currently difficult for Dunn to meet their demands, nor does he want to meet their demands.

It has to be said that during the election for the president of the United States, Frog's stupid actions caused the current president to dislike them and basically put them on ice.

So Dunn didn't plan to pay attention to them for the time being.

However, although they will not go to Frog for the time being, it does not mean that Dunn will not make some preparations in advance. He asked Payne to take some of the assigned personnel to Frog first.

But these people must use other identities and cannot reveal their identities as agents.

Although there are a lot of collaborations between Frog and the CIA, rashly sending so many agents to their area would certainly make them feel apprehensive.

Therefore, the identities of these agents going to the Frog area must be kept confidential.

However, relatively speaking, the freedom there would be greatly reduced. Even if one allowed his Chinese employees to go to Wa Wa in a private capacity, they would still be subject to investigation by their two major spy agencies.

There was no other way, so Dunn only let Payne take less than 10 people away. The rest of the people had to be recruited locally, and two of the people introduced by Bai Jianming were also assigned to the team.

Dunn planned to take most of the others to Victoria Harbour. Although Victoria Harbour was not large, its location was undoubtedly the most important. It was basically a window for the mainland's external exchanges, so it made sense to deploy more personnel here.

Moreover, compared to Frog, the population flow in and out of Victoria Harbour is relatively large, and the influx of a large number of outsiders in a short period of time will not attract much attention at all.

It was at the end of the first lunar month in 1950 that Dunn officially set foot in the Victoria Harbour area.

On the surface, Dunn came to start a newspaper, but everyone knew what he was actually going to do.

In the future, this newspaper will become the CIA's mouthpiece, of course targeting East Asia.

Many Chinese employees will also work in this newspaper, except for some with lower cultural levels who will be sent to other places to hide temporarily.

Dunn's external identity became the owner of this newspaper.

In fact, Dunn, who has become accustomed to the bombardment of information from various self-media in later generations, feels that it should not be very challenging to work in traditional paper media in this era.

He can come up with many new tricks in the non-news section that have never been seen in this era.

As for the news section, it goes without saying. With the biggest boss, the CIA, standing behind them, how could they be short of intelligence?

A lot of outdated intelligence can actually be released as the latest news.

A lot of unimportant information can be published directly in newspapers in its original form.

From this point of view, Dunn's newspaper has more advantages than other newspapers.

However, although the newspaper has been successfully registered, it will not publish newspapers for the time being.

Because a large number of the Chinese employees recruited by Dunn have not received professional training and cannot be considered qualified agents.

The main task for the next period of time is training, and Dunn has arranged a full schedule of training subjects, basically training in the morning on some skills of agents, and in the afternoon on how to run a newspaper.

For this purpose, Dunn also specially invited professional journalists from the United States to start training.

There is no way. The external identity is also very important and must be maintained.

Although the future newspaper will not have much business pressure, it still needs to look good on the surface. Everyone has even started to recruit some real newspaper talents.

However, this needs to be done slowly and there is no need to be too anxious. At this time, Deng was also following the afternoon media training. Because of his tall stature, he sat in the last row. As a boss, he could not give up the training at this time, which made Dunn a little helpless.

Sitting in front of him was Bai Jianming. Looking at Bai Jiancheng who was taking notes quickly, Dunn had an idea. During the halftime break of the training, Dunn immediately pulled Bai Jiancheng aside.

"Xiao Bai, I promised to give you some local employee quotas. Now this promise can be fulfilled, but I also need to designate some talents. Talk to the people behind you and see if you can find some professional talents in the media field. I can leave the position of vice president of the newspaper to you!"

Bai Jiancheng was shocked by Dunn's words. Originally, when he gave him some places, he had no intention of letting these people climb to higher positions. But now Dunn gave him the position of second in charge of their public identities.

Even if this person in charge is only responsible for maintaining the relationship on the surface, that's fine. If the newspaper is run well in the future, this person's social status will gradually improve. After gaining a reputation in Victoria Harbour, it will be much easier for him to do things.

"Don't worry, sir, I will report it to the higher-ups!"

After being shocked, Bai Jiancheng immediately nodded in agreement, as if he was afraid that Dunn would go back on his word.

His appearance also made Dunn laugh.

"You can introduce more talents from related industries. The better this newspaper is run, the greater the benefits we will get in the future! But you must also make it clear to the people behind you that you cannot publish overly radical remarks in the newspaper. If you want to publish them, you must obtain my consent!"

This point must be made clear, but of course, I also believe that the people behind Bai Jiancheng certainly don't want to lose this identity, so Dunn doesn't need to give too many reminders about their style of doing things. The reason why I have to make this matter clear to Bai Jiancheng here is to let Bai Jiancheng and the people behind him distinguish between the primary and the secondary. Dunn can ignore some of their actions in private, but the public position must be maintained.

The agents he recruited definitely did not have a strong desire to run the newspaper well. At this time, if they could get some professional talents from Bai Jiancheng, their enterprising spirit should be strengthened.

They will definitely find ways to increase the influence of Victoria Harbour Metropolitan Newspaper, which is equivalent to getting a group of hard-working laborers for free, and they will definitely get some unexpected gains in the future.
