Top Student at Their Peak

It can only be said that there's indeed a reason why Yu Yanjiang could become the deputy chief engineer of the lunar project.

It's not just that he's stingy, but he's also swift and decisive by nature.

The next day, he arranged for a specialized teacher to start teaching Qiao Yu, and the content of the lessons, of course, was about secrecy.

The teacher's surname was Wen, and his unique temperament was evident when he met Qiao Yu. Indeed, he lived up to being the teacher imparting knowledge of secrecy, but his name was unknown, and his affiliation was also undisclosed...

At the first meeting, when Qiao Yu actively inquired, Teacher Wen chuckled and said: "Why bother asking such detailed questions about a teacher teaching you such an obscure subject? I can't help you with academic research.

You don't need to remember me in the future. As long as you can do whatever I teach you, I'll be happy! I'm not trying to scare you, but about two-thirds of the people I've taught ended up sewing with a machine."

This statement greatly shocked Qiao Yu. It seems like even the proportion of accountants who end up sewing isn't that high?

"No, Teacher Wen, is it because you didn't teach well, or are you teaching a crash course on sewing machines?"

This Teacher Wen wasn't offended at all, and instead, he laughed.

"Haha, there's no such thing as not teaching well. Before they went in, I attended the interrogation process. I don't do much, just list the offenses they committed, and then ask them if they still remember what I taught them in class on a specific date.

Guess what? As soon as I trigger their memory, they can recall a lot. It's quite effective, but by that time, regret is too late. So I suggest you study well. Although you might not need much of this knowledge now.

But after ten or twenty years with your age and ability, when you're in your thirties, the things you'll be able to access will be different. What you learn from me now will surely be beneficial for a lifetime."

Qiao Yu thought for a moment and said, "Hmm, teaching about secrecy and also participating in debriefing those who leak secrets, I think I can guess which department you work in, Teacher Wen."

"Alright, I'll tell you directly that you guessed wrong! Ah... to be honest, this is my first time teaching such a young person, and it does feel quite strange." Teacher Wen shook his head and said.

Curious, Qiao Yu asked again, "Oh, then you must have an advanced teaching title, right? And probably one who doesn't often tell the truth, otherwise why emphasize so much when you're being honest?"

"Alright, let's not waste time, let's start the class. Today we won't be going over those cold regulations, let's start with a few cases and discuss the gap between what is and what ought to be regarding secrecy.

By the way, one more thing, for the next twenty days or so, we'll have two lessons a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Before all classes are completed, I'll be temporarily staying at room 302, building 8 of the Rong Garden Hotel.

If you have any questions, you can ask me anytime. Of course, you can also call. Listen carefully, don't drift off! After all, we have exams for this, and the results are very important."

...

And so the first class ended with many case studies, giving Qiao Yu a clearer understanding of secrecy.

It turned out that this wasn't quite the same as criminal law. For example, criminal law has the principle of restraint, which aims to limit the state's power in pressing criminal charges as much as possible.

Therefore, various judicial agencies must strive to investigate the suspect's subjective intent, or criminal motive, as this is very important.

If some crimes are not committed with subjective intent, the sentencing is generally not too severe. But secrecy is different; there's no need to consider motive, only the result.

Sentencing or penalties largely depend on the level and scope of the leaked secrets, even without subjective intent, or without receiving any benefits, what should happen will still happen...

Of course, it could also be because this is the first lesson, and to impress upon Qiao Yu the importance of this course, Teacher Wen deliberately shared some particularly special cases to scare him a bit.

But after studying for a few days, Qiao Yu indeed felt a bit different.

Previously, he thought Yu Yanjiang's talk about confidentiality training was just about roughly going over the contract and emphasizing the importance of keeping secrets.

To his surprise, the scope covered by this course is quite extensive, far beyond what he had imagined, including various technical knowledge.

For instance, information security and network security, principles and management of information confidentiality, various encryption technologies, including but not limited to different levels of security protocols and standards.

It even included military and intelligence, and legal and ethical analyses, etc., most astonishingly, all these courses were taught by Teacher Wen alone.

He was like a high school schedule, even though he was the only teacher, every lesson had different subjects, citing various cases from different angles, sounding especially interesting, and Qiao Yu couldn't help but be drawn in...

Well, it can only be said that every industry has its masters. Undoubtedly, Teacher Wen is an eminent figure in the field of secrecy, at least in Qiao Yu's view.

After all, he felt he had at least some basic discernment. For instance, judging whether a teacher is lecturing well has a set of objective standards.

Qiao Yu also began to believe that Teacher Wen probably had indeed taught many bigwigs, and the two-thirds ending up with sewing machines wasn't just a joke. After all, he truly shared many incredible cases.
