now that we had the well, we continue every technique that we ve been using, waiting for the next time he steals information and tries to send it to china. but you have to be patient for your opportunity. you don t know if it s going to be next week and you have to be ready for that, or it could be next year. we received a phone call from the surveillance personnel that they had some video of chi mak and rebecca sitting at the dining room table copying discs. that was the day we knew, okay, big break. something is going on here. in the surveillance tape we saw of chi mak and rebecca making a disc, chi mak was making the disc, but rebecca was constantly over his shoulder nagging him about what he was doing wrong or how he could do it better. then it was quickly
china about his progress. this was frosting on the cake for us. we didn t realize they would have surveillance personnel watching their own people for signs of compromise. and it also confirmed the importance of this delivery to china that they d have somebody watching it. at the airport, we searched the bag of tai and fuk li, his wife. in the piece of luggage, they had a small book titled how to speak american english. in it they had two out of three cds. and they are the type of discs, you d learn to speak english. put it in your computer, spit out words, talk back to it. instead of having the third disc, they had the disc they copied and encrypted. pretty ingenious. any inspector would open the book up, look at it quickly, see the two discs and move ahead. when tai mak and fuk li entered through security at the
