Chapter 800: Big Shot

In this era, the Chinese are really not valued in the United States.

Wu Xiaozheng quickly felt this.

After getting into the car, Lin Kun drove straight to the nearest Presbyterian hospital nearby.

This is an affiliated hospital of Columbia University.

Because Columbia University is right next door to the Harlem district, there wasn't much time to get on the road.

After entering the hospital, Wu Xiaozheng followed Ma Li closely until she entered the operating room.

As for calling the police and notifying He Shiyuan, Lin Kun naturally had to do it.

Soon, He Shiyuan hurried with people.

"Little junior brother, I'm sorry, it was my mistake, I should have sent a few more people to follow. He Shiyuan was full of apologies.

Wu Xiaozheng didn't blame him.

It was just an accident.

Although the Harlem district is chaotic, there are still few robberies and shootings during the day.

Maybe even He Shiyuan didn't expect that the place Ma Li was looking for would be so remote.

He could not have imagined that the Lincoln he had so kindly arranged would become a target for the bad guys.

After a while, two policemen arrived, made a symbolic record of Lin Kun and Wu Xiaozheng, and then left in a hurry.

"That's it?"

Wu Xiaozheng was a little angry about the police's slackness.

Ma Li's injuries were not serious, the bullet passed under her shoulder blades, and it did not hurt the bones or the vital parts. It's just that because the pistol is not very powerful, the bullet remains in the body, and a minor operation is needed to remove the bullet.

"Yes, if we don't take a little special measures, this matter will eventually be closed, and it is likely that we will not even be able to catch the murderer. The reason is that we are Chinese. ”

He Shiyuan was also a little angry.

As a native of the United States, Ho Shiyuan is familiar with the virtues of American police.

If it was a white man who was injured at this time, it is estimated that they would soon set off a storm of rectification in Harlem.

But because the injured Ma Li is Chinese, the police are likely to deal with things habitually.

This has been the case for hundreds of years, since New York had Chinatown.

This is also the reason why Chinese in the United States need to form various associations.

If you don't huddle, you will not only be bullied by people of other races, but you may also be bullied by the police.

He Shiyuan was capable of taking strong retaliatory measures against the shooting, but because of Wu Xiaozheng's mainland background, he decided to go through official channels.

"Don't worry, this won't be over. ”

Soon after, a group of people from the New York Chinese Entrepreneurs Association arrived one after another, including William Lin, the chairman of the board, and Weng Jinjun, the president.

They were joined by several strangers and a few journalists.

Wu Xiaozheng immediately realized that He Shiyuan really attached importance to this matter and wanted to make it bigger.

"Wu Xiaoyou, let me introduce you. ”

William Lin pointed to a Chinese and said, "This is Mr. Zhang Weichao, Consul General of the Chinese Consulate in New York. ”

Wu Xiaozheng was a little moved.

He didn't expect that the energy of William Lin and the others was so great that even the consul general was alarmed.

But they were really thoughtful.

No matter at any time, when the Chinese suffer losses abroad, the first thing to look for is the local consulate and embassy, which is their own maiden home, and only the embassy and consulate will come out for the Chinese.

And it's justifiably coming out.

He hurriedly stepped forward and held Mr. Zhang Weichao's hand tightly.

William Lin continued.

He pointed to a white man and said to Wu Xiaozheng: "I would like to introduce you to Mr. Rudolph Giuliani." ”

At first, Wu Xiaozheng didn't pay much attention to this white man in a suit and leather shoes with a Mediterranean head.

Strangely, though, he found the white man somewhat familiar.

"Mr. Giuliani is a former senior federal prosecutor and deputy attorney general, and he is now a lawyer, and in this case, I have invited Mr. Giuliani to serve as legal counsel to help you get justice. ”

Senior Federal Prosecutor, Deputy Minister of Justice?

This lawyer has some background!

Wu Xiaozheng couldn't help but glance at Giuliani again.

The more I looked at him, the more familiar I felt.

He seems to have seen this man in a previous life.

By the way, Mr. Giuliani ran for mayor of New York last year, narrowly lost, and he will run for mayor of New York this year. ”

William Lin's words made Wu Xiaozheng suddenly realize.

Holy, big shot!

Wu Xiaozheng finally knew why this person was familiar.

At some point in his previous life, he often saw him on TV.

Rudolph Giuliani, two-term mayor of New York from 1993 to 2001, was Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2001.

The reason why he became famous all over the world was because of the famous "911" incident in later generations.

On September 11, 2001, two planes hijacked by terrorists crashed into One and Two World Trade Centers, respectively, and the world-famous Twin Towers were razed to the ground in an instant.

At that time, it was the Giuliani in front of him who was in charge of the matter.

It is precisely because of this major event that the world is familiar with this iron-fisted mayor.

Wu Xiaozheng was in the report of the 911 incident, and he was often seen on TV.

His iconic Mediterranean head is so distinctive that it's hard not to make an impression.

Wu Xiaozheng never expected that such a big man would appear here now, and he would certainly be the human rights lawyer of this incident.

You know, Giuliani will run successfully in September this year, become mayor of New York City, and will take office at the end of the year.

Would Ma Li be happier to know that the future mayor of New York would be her human rights lawyer?

Because Ma Li's life was not in danger, Wu Xiaozheng's mood at this time was also much more relaxed.

However, what he was curious about was, why did Giuliani appear here with William Lin?

He thought of a possibility: to help the election!

It is really not easy for Chinese people to survive abroad.

If they want to protect their rights, they must build relationships with senior government officials.

For those with no background, the best way to build relationships with senior government officials is to help them in elections, and to gain their friendship by providing assistance to senior officials before they take office.

And for politicians, they can't wait for it either.

You know, running in the United States is a very expensive thing to do, and it takes a lot of money to maintain.

Not only that, according to the law, Chinese with American nationality also have the right to vote, and the Chinese are famous for huddles.

As a result, politicians like Giuliani are happy to build deep personal relationships with Chinese organizations like the New York Chinese Entrepreneurs Association.

This is the future mayor of New York, should you have a good relationship with him?

Wu Xiaozheng began to think about this question.
