Chapter 1215: Racial Consciousness

Li Mu didn't expect that he was recognized by an American policeman, and when the other party called out his name in surprise, Li Mu could only lower the window and say hello to the policeman out of politeness.

After the other party saw Li Mu's face and confirmed that it was him, he said excitedly: "I can't believe it, it's really you Mr. Li!" My son has always regarded you as an idol, and I have always taught him to take you as a role model and be an outstanding talent who contributes to society like you in the future, I didn't expect to have the opportunity to really face you face to face, if I go home and tell him that I met you, he will not dare to believe it......

Li Mu smiled and asked, "How old is your son?"

"Ten years old!" said the policeman, "he is now studying computer science after school, and his dream is to become a brilliant Internet worker like you." ”

Li Mu nodded humbly and said, "Please tell him on my behalf, if he can persevere, the door of Makino Technology will definitely be open for him, and I hope that one day in the future, he can become a member of Makino Technology." ”

"Great!" The policeman excitedly clenched his fists and cheered like a child, and then asked tentatively: "I have a law enforcement camera in my car, can I take it over and take a picture with you?" Don't worry, after the photo is washed out, I will only show it to my children, and I will not show it to others. ”

“OK。 Li Mu nodded briskly, and then said: "I'm sorry, our car just had a little problem, so it was temporarily parked, see if it can ......?"

The policeman immediately waved his hand and said equally cheerfully: "It's nothing, as long as the driver is more careful when driving backwards." ”

After that, the policeman looked at Wei Jun and said with a serious face: "Hey man, you have to know that you are sitting in the car, but this is the most outstanding young man in the world, for his safety, your driving skills must be practiced well, do you understand?"

Wei Jun hurriedly nodded and said, "Don't worry, officer, there won't be a next time." ”

The policeman nodded, handed the document back to Wei Jun through the car window, and said with a smile: "But you have to stop a little longer, I took the camera, and after taking pictures, escorted you all the way to the city." ”

Before Wei Jun could speak, the police had already run back to his police car, and then took out a digital camera from the police car and ran back quickly.

Li Mu got out of the car as promised, and asked Weilan to help take a photo of himself and the policeman, and after taking the photo, the policeman immediately said to Li Mu: "Thank you, Mr. Li, you can go now." ”

Li Mu nodded slightly, and then got into the car with Wei Lan, and Wei Jun also breathed a sigh of relief and started the car and drove away from the scene.

Back on the road, Wei Jun sighed and said: "Sometimes the police in the United States really can't do anything, they have a lot of law enforcement powers, and many things can be big or small, in the United States, if you meet a more serious person, anything is possible, accidentally speeding, or accidentally running a red light, and meeting a good talking policeman, you may be warned a few words and passed, but if you encounter that kind of more serious, it is not good to be detained for a day. A few hundred dollars, a few hundred dollars in bail, and a court sentence of 72 hours of community service after a while, these are all too normal. ”

Li Mu smiled and asked: "Will there be such serious consequences for traffic violations?"

"Yes!" Wei Jun nodded and asked with a smile, "Guess what will happen if you park illegally in the United States?"

Wei Lan on the side asked, "Won't you also be sued?"

Wei Jun nodded and said with a smile: "If it is serious, it will be prosecuted, and it will really be tried in court, but in most cases, a fine will be imposed, and then a certain period of community service will be added." ”

Saying that, Wei Jun sighed with emotion: "To be honest, Americans really like to go to court, and whoever doesn't go to court here several times a year is embarrassed to say that he lives in the United States, and he goes to court for big things and small things, or the most profitable industry in this country is lawyers." ”

Wei Lan smiled: "I used to think that in the future, our whole family will live in the United States, and you still hate this place......

Wei Jun sighed and said: "Everyone thinks the United States is good, but I am getting more and more uncomfortable in the United States, in fact, the United States is not as good as it looks from the outside, and most of the Chinese people living here are not so happy in their hearts, especially racial discrimination, although everyone is resisting this kind of thing on the surface, They are all opposed, but this kind of thinking is still prevalent in American society, and people of color in the United States are more or less treated differently in their lives, which may not originate from the law and government, but from the grassroots of society. ”

"Let's take the police as an example, some police officers have serious racial discrimination personally, some time ago a black young man was shot and killed by the police on duty because he refused to accept the police inspection, the police who shot and beat people said in court that he felt that his life was threatened so he shot, but the young man did not have any weapons on him, but the court still recognized his explanation, and released him in court, I heard that he was released and went back to the police station to continue to work, although many blacks were protesting, but it did not have any substantive effect。 ”

Wei Lan exclaimed, "So excessive?!"

Wei Jun smiled helplessly and said, "It's quite excessive, but there is no way." ”

Li Mu listened to it with a lot of emotion, he was reborn from 16 years ago, at that time the global information exchange has been very convenient and smooth, so he has learned many cases of racial discrimination in the United States, just the police shot and killed people of color, I don't know how many happened, it is not easy for Chinese people to get the respect and recognition of the whole society here.

At this time, Wei Jun said: "Take the incident just now, if we change to a policeman who has opinions about yellow people, and there is no celebrity like Mr. Li in the car, the other party will probably not let us leave so easily, and at worst, he will not hesitate to issue me a ticket, and if it is serious, he may arrest me back and detain me for 24 hours, and then prosecute me." ”

"Sue?" Wei Lan said puzzledly: "Such a small matter, as for the prosecution?"

Wei Jun nodded and said: "There are two sets of very different standards for social security in the United States, one is to deal with things as small as possible, and the other is to develop as big as possible, and most of this law enforcement power is in the hands of white people, so sometimes it will be used by people with colored glasses, although extreme examples like the one I just said are rare, but it is still very common to be treated differently." ”

After a pause, Wei Jun said: "There are actually quite a lot of such things in the United States, blacks and yellows will be treated more or less differently here, and every Chinese living here believes that they have more or less accepted this kind of malice from racial discrimination, including me." ”

"Sometimes when I buy something in the supermarket, I queue up to check out and get cut in line by a white guy and remind him, but the other party is dirty, calling you a damn Chinese guy, and putting the mantra of 'get out of my country' on your lips at every turn, do you say this is a big deal? No, but can we feel comfortable listening to it? Sometimes I feel uncomfortable, I really want to fight with those little bastards, but my body, let alone fighting with American young people, even American peers I can't beat, Lao Mei grew up eating beef, to be honest, the physical fitness is much better than ours, and he loves fitness, and he really can't beat them under normal circumstances......"

When it comes to some deep things in the United States, Wei Jun seems to have opened the conversation, and said with a sigh: "I have talked to many Chinese people who have immigrated to the United States about this problem, the United States is very good, the economy, science and technology, and culture are very developed, but it is not perfect, on the contrary, there are many drawbacks hidden under the halo, in fact, a considerable number of people in the United States are not so happy, everyone has everyone's sadness, they also want to go back, but relatives and friends in China feel that they immigrate to the United States is a very happy, It is a very face-saving thing, so much so that they have cultivated the vanity that they are superior to others when they immigrate to the United States, and letting them go back now is equivalent to letting them step down from the altar, and they will not be able to get over their face. ”

Saying that, Wei Jun suddenly remembered something, and said to Li Mu: "By the way, Mr. Li, now many Chinese top students in the United States seem to be under your influence, ready to return to China for development, I heard that there are many people who have joined Makino Technology, the child of a friend of mine immigrated to the United States with his parents when he was a teenager, and he also became a naturalized student, and he studied for a doctorate at Yale, and when he last met, he said that his son had been hired by Makino Technology and was preparing to go to Yanjing." ”

Li Mu nodded and said: "Makino Technology has a plan for the return of overseas talents, to strive to promote and accelerate the development of overseas talents returning to China, and the energy invested in this area will be greater and greater in the future." ”

Wei Jun asked curiously: "Is it also in your plan to become an American citizen like my friend's son? It seems that people who have already changed their nationality will be difficult to transfer back to Huaxia, right?"

Li Mu shook his head and said with a smile: "This plan is not supported by the government, so it is not restricted by nationality, and I don't value nationality myself, what I value is race." ”

Speaking, Li Mu explained: "To be honest, I am not racist, I have always felt that all races in the world are equal, but although I am not racist, it does not mean that I have no racial consciousness, on the contrary, I am a person with a strong racial consciousness." ”

"The ancients said that if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different, and I strongly agree with this, so what I pursue is to unite all the sons and daughters of the Chinese nation and work together to make this nation stronger, no matter where others are, no matter which nationality he joins, as long as he has the blood of the Chinese nation in his body, and is willing to make his own efforts for the prosperity of this nation, then he is the object we will strive for in the future!"
