The presidential candidate, Kerry, seems to be busy. There are only two months left until the launch of the new government, so drafts need to be made within a month to finalize the Cabinet Seal and government formation. I heard that there are so many people in the Kerry Candidate Camp right now, that they are struggling with traffic.

I also got busy because I had to coordinate work internally on the defense minister recommendation and chat with the Kerry presidents.

It's not the only thing that makes me care. I was very curious as to who would sit in the position of CIA and FBI Director. It wasn't that I wanted to be there, but that I wanted to be "close".

I wanted to take this opportunity to get a better look at the levels and conditions of both institutions, as well as help my colleagues and friends who work deeply inside Jason or Johnston Intelligence team sit down.

Fortunately, a familiar name was added to the candidate list, and he was a California born congressman several times here, and Laon Paneta was chief of staff with the budget director during the Clinton administration.

I've met Patetta at Democratic events before and at Mr. Grey's parties. But he was a senior official in administration, and California was his home, so he was able to get acquainted more naturally.

It's not the only fate. Both couples, unfortunately, graduated from the same school as Jennifer, from the University of Santa Clara, and have recently been actively involved on the school board.

The most important thing in school is finance. In particular, there are "wealthy" alumni such as Harvard or Stanford, but there are much more places that are not. The University of Santa Clara is famous for its law school and politics, so it is not very rich financially.

Of course, I don't know the past, but I can't help but let Jennifer, who is now the proudest 'alumni', remain in the school. Chief Crimson says it's not a school that can cross this line of money.

I made substantial contributions to Stanford University, my parent, and support research projects. It is to attract graduates from good engineering colleges with a shortsighted approach and to increase their influence on schools and alumni.

As I actively donated to my school, Jennifer said, "Please donate to my school. 'There is no excuse to refuse. I once asked myself the same question before, but I told him that I was supporting Stanford because of the acquisition of good graduates and alumni. Then he shouted," Don't you have good talent in your school? "

In a way, "I don't like the school you went to. 'I was sweating because it sounded like an explanation, but since then it's annoying to ask, I just give it to them.

A donation is a good thing because you get some money back to pay taxes separately. Later it turns out that the Santa Clara Alumni are quite political and legal. Of course, if it wasn't for Jennifer's school, I wouldn't have cared.

Having been free since his retirement in 2000, Mr. Panetta has visited me several times for financial support and special projects at the University of Santa Clara. I had a face, so I did well, and I always sent Panetta to make sure she thought the school would take the money well and the donation problem ever since. When I had so many projects in school, I came to see myself and opened my hands, and every time I paid, I became an alumni of the University of Santa Clara.

By the way, this old man on my network put his name on the CIA Director's nomination.

"It's not easy getting people to step up, is it, General Schwartz?"

I first thanked General Schwartz for coming to my office. While it was the other maturities who publicly demanded Rumsfeld's resignation, more than 20 consecutive maturities were the efforts of General Schwartz.

No matter how many others go first, it is not easy to do so. That was an important part of my operation because I had 20 people on board. With all this commotion, what I did behind my back was completely masked.

"What? This is a man I admire even when I see him. I don't know about you, but I'm just busy looking up to my successors when they find me."

"Haha. Now you've got a lot of jokes. I didn't have any respect before, but it sure wasn't fun."

When I saw General Schwartz joking back then, I lost a lot of troops. I used to make fun of him because he used to have a tone in his long military life.

"Good thing I'm a candidate for Kerry, by the way. Actually, I did you a favor, but I was so worried that I couldn't sleep. I know you're not one to talk empty, but what if something goes wrong? No matter how retired you are, if you oppose the Pentagon head-on, your food will be disruptive. And then I walked in on a bunch of real-life kids, and I was so embarrassed."

General Schwartz tells the story behind the resignation relay. I know I told you not to worry, but I'm afraid there's a lot of future ahead of me that might go wrong.

"Speaking of which, should General Schwartz take over as Secretary of Defense this time?"

"What?! Are you serious?"

I look surprised by my offer. I mean, I know I helped candidate Kerry, but I think this was an accident. Seeing that there was no answer, I asked him why, because he seemed to be worried. I thought you'd be very fond of the rest of me.

"Something bothers you?"

"No... you know what? I'm very happy with my life now. It's nothing to be jealous of, but how troublesome is it to be Secretary of Defense? If you're going to do that, I suggest you get one of my men to follow me. There are a lot of people who are very interested in that position."

"So... that's why you're reluctant to become the Secretary of Defense?"

When I heard the explanation, it was strange. Others are scrambling to get a seat with each other, but General Schwartz is very happy with his current life. However, it makes perfect sense to listen to the reason.

General Schwartz was paid not only for his annual salary as a senior advisor in the Wall Street Journal, but also for the luxury hotel-style condo in Manhattan, New York City, for free, as well as for the Johnstone VIP cards in the name of his activities. You are living a very generous life.

But what if I become the Secretary of Defense? Of course we have to put it all down. The minister should not be directly sponsored by a private company. The truth is, I refuse even in my dreams for unexpected reasons. I coughed.

"And what about the connections I've been managing? I can no longer lead this council if I stand in my shoes. But you don't deserve to appoint someone else. Hopefully this will be an opportunity to get the Secretary of Defense out of our meeting. What do I think?"

"Really? Well, not bad..."

It's a very good idea to listen quietly. More than 100 members have joined the Routine Meeting led by General Schwartz. It has now grown into a not-for-profit organization with the prestigious name National Security Network (NSN) and is being noticed as a new sink tank.

It is currently organized around its chairman, General Schwartz, who is not as qualified as General Schwartz to control this many people and manage them in a friendly manner to me.

Moreover, if General Schwartz becomes the Secretary of Defense, it is not easy to see me often. Of course, if you meet secretly, the president of the minister of defense and other military projects will be a target of jealousy for any reason.

However, if you have someone you can trust at a meeting, at least you will be able to convey your intentions properly, without any external problems.

"Do you know Paul well? You have faith in the military, you have decency, you have flexibility. Plus, he likes to sit in one place."

"General Paul Eaton?"

Thinking about General Eaton's recommendation, I nodded without knowing it. Being human is okay, and I particularly like being flexible.

I'm not recommending you as a minister for a man. Good for me, pushing me to work for me. However, it's useless to recommend those who pretend to be patriotic and clean.

Lincoln used the word "for the people, for the people," but that's it, because it's Lincoln, and I can't do that. I can't help it because it's just my natural nature.

I decided to recommend General Eaton at the end of the table, but next week General Schwartz decided to bring General Eaton to see me. because I don't have much time.

"By the way, Thomas, what's he doing these days?"

After walking General Schwartz off, sitting on the couch, Thomas suddenly pops into his head. Having been distracted for a while, I felt empty, but it's been a while since I've seen him.

Thomas was obsessed with building reconnaissance drones, but once he's obsessed with something, he can't get out of it. When I was a child, I didn't know that the axe's sack rots in fresh gaze. When I heard it, I only knew it by analogy, but I really understood why it happened when I looked at Thomas.

I stopped by the condo room alone because I was worried about him when he fell into the server, and the food was really rotting in the refrigerator. It means that the door has not been opened for nearly two weeks. Eventually, I had him relocate to a hotel condo, at least in the maintenance room, to take care of the corners.

I asked you to find out where Thomas is in the secretarial office, and he said he's at Robotics Laboratory C at Johnstone Techno Center. I took a look around the lab and went out on my own, but the techno center is not far from where I am, but it's too far to walk to. I had to go down to the first floor and get in a car.

Even the C-drive Robotics Lab, there are quite a number of secret project teams at Johnston Techno Center. Electronics, aerospace, semiconductors, computer science, energy, bio, and even geology have many fields that I find confusing.

I didn't intend to raise it this far from the beginning, but the Johnstone Group grew more and more, and when something came out of TV or the Internet, I got greedy enough to add one or two, and then suddenly there were 3,500 scientists and engineers living in the laboratory in seven and 280 project teams.

Among them, more than 40% are foreigners, mostly from India, Eastern Europe and Russia. This happened because I was more interested in permanently resettling talent in the United States than I was in undergraduates. Many local geniuses with poor environmental and less patriotic children often come and sit down in the United States, either individually or as a family.

No matter how good Chinese people are, they will not hire their families unless they are in the United States. I don't know when I'll turn into a spy to pass on my core skills.

You and the group head up to the project lab, and you see Thomas piloting drones in the indoor lab. Even though I go in there so hard, I don't know it, I'm just looking ahead.

I don't know what to do with the researchers I was with, but I motioned to leave others alone.

Tak!

"What are you doing here?"

"Huh, huh? Just stuff..."

I watched him play for five minutes, then I approached him on the shoulder, then I turned around and I was stunned. It's like he was caught stealing. I'm probably the head of the online intelligence team on the other side, and I'm playing with robots here, so it's hot.

"What do you have in your hand?"

"Huh? It's like a portable computer. They're trying to control the drones."

At first, the flying drones were blind and had no idea, but it was unusual to hold them in your hands. It's like I just pulled the screen off a computer, a computer.

"What about inputs?"

"It's a touchscreen. You press here like this, and the keyboard pops up."

"Wait! How did you make this?"

I was surprised to see a touch-enabled laptop. Why am I surprised? Of course, natural touch is amazing, but what's even more surprising is that it literally says, "Who, how? 'Did you make this?'

This is thinner than the laptop I had previously ordered, so it would be worth tens of millions of won, because it was too technical for any individual to make.

"Well, I asked the Johnstone electronics to do this, and they just did it."

"What! When you asked me to make it, you just did it?"

"Yes."

I don't have much to say when I see Thomas staring at me without thinking. I decided to investigate the details later and asked why I created it.

"It's easy to test with one hand. There's five drones out there right now. If you squeeze a formation with this touch screen here, it will move. I give the orders with my fingers. Well, isn't that great? “

Thomas draws a model on the screen with his finger, and the drones follow suit. I also used the buttons at the top of the screen to control the drones like a game: forward, backward, landing, takeoff, pivot, etc. Then we switch to auto mode, and the drones fly by themselves.

After watching Thomas' experiment for a while, I borrowed a padded laptop. I wanted to check on a few things, but I came back to the office and made a phone call to Johnson Stone Electronics.

"Mr. Lee Cheol-min?"

"Yep! Chairman!"

Lee Cheol-min, who heard my voice, was startled and dumbfounded. Very few times have I called my affiliate bosses separately. Most of them are handled by a stationmaster or by the head of a permanent residence.

"A padded laptop, not something else. You were pretty good. What happened to the project?"

"Haha. Have you seen it? This is last week's third prototype. It's been done through massive trial and error."

Lee Cheol-min is very proud, but he is always praising me. Of course, I made it very well, but I wondered how it was made without my knowledge.

"How did this project start?"

"Yes? What do you mean? Here are your instructions."

Although it is on the phone, Lee Cheol-min's crazy heart is conveying. But I'm confused, too.

"Was there another president in my company besides me? '

Seeing what happened before and after, I had a slightly ridiculous laugh. This is true that Thomas started earlier this year by calling the Johnstone Electronics Lab.

There's no one in Seoul who doesn't know that Thomas is my sidekick and friend in the initiation. Thomas called the Johnstone Electronics Lab directly, so we can't hear any rumblings.

Referring to the laptop I handed him, he said he wanted to have a padded type to hold in one hand, but I was instructed to continue to improve performance, so I thought Thomas' words were an extension of my instructions. Of course, it was classified as a special instruction and the research expense was generously invested.

Then, around August, when Thomas fell into a drone, prototype development took place by checking the development situation at Johnston Institute of Electronics. Moreover, with the cooperation of Johnston Techno Center, he supported technology and engineers, which he thought was a special interest in the headquarters and created products.

.

In short, what Thomas ordered turned into a $10 billion project because he was too lazy to experiment with his laptop. Somehow, it looked very good.

"Well done. Can you send me two first... and what's the name of this?"

"Yes, let's call it the Mypad for now."

However, I complimented him because he worked hard. At first, I tried to point out that I didn't report the development of my MyPad to me, but I understand one thing from the situation.

The NSA system, the Libyan energy business, and the smart grid have generated more than $10 billion in revenue this year. And the Johnstone Techno Centre costs two billion dollars a year.

In a situation where the unit sounds' billion ', a small $10 billion project in Korea would have been included in several lines in the report that came up one day. I guess I've been pretty busy, unless I'm a big project. Come on, it's time for me to meddle in those little things.

You mess with Mypherd, which was taken from Thomas. When I press the button, I see a menu, and the game has Tetris.

What's a Mypad, by the way? Wait, what is this operating system? Did he build the operating system? '

That's when I found out I must have missed something. It's not a window, it's not a Mac, it's working smoothly. I haven't been interested in this for a while, but I haven't heard that this much visual operating system came out. Suddenly I was curious.

Paneta served as Secretary of Defense through the CIA director during Obama administration until the beginning of this year. Unfortunately, born in California, graduated from college and graduate school in Santa Clara, where Jennifer is from a novel. And it's true that he was on the school board.

(Last week, I was working all week and couldn't write in time because of the sudden problems with the company. Now I have a little time to get cleaned up.)
