Chapter 740: Unlucky America
……
"Liu, let me introduce you, this is Major Brown of the Department of Defense, and he is the person in charge of investigating this plane crash!" said Del Roosevelt.
"Hello!"
This Major Brown knew at a glance that he was a standard soldier, with a well-groomed appearance and meticulous military uniform, and when he saw Liu Dong, his face was tense from beginning to end, and he couldn't see a trace of a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Liu, we hope that you can cooperate with us and tell us what happened on the passenger plane of Flight LS2001 without concealment, and also give an explanation of what happened after the plane made a forced landing!"
After listening, Liu Dong nodded calmly, he expected this when he came.
"Liu, don't worry, just make an ordinary transcript and tell him what you know! Moreover, you are a hero of the United States of America, if it were not for you this time, I am afraid that our country will not only be the World Trade Center and the Pentagon will be knocked down!"
Look at the look of joy on Del Roosevelt's face. Liu Dong couldn't help but be puzzled: "Is the World Trade Center crashing in New York? Is it the World Trade Center in New York? And the Pentagon." It won't be the U.S. Department of Defense, right?"
Said the end. Even Liu Dong himself was surprised, the World Trade Center is a symbol of the economic prosperity of the United States, and the Pentagon is even more remarkable; as the seat of the US Department of Defense, it directly controls the United States' deployment of the navy, army, and air force around the world, and all the movements of the US military are issued from here.
The Pentagon, so to speak, sneeze. It is estimated that the whole world will be nervous.
"Is such an important place actually being hit?" Are the American GIs all sleeping?" Liu Dong shook his head secretly.
Although he thought so, Liu Dong instantly knew that he was safe, if he hadn't shot it himself, the Boeing 747 wouldn't have known where it hit!
Maybe it's the Empire State Building in New York, maybe it's the White House, the national brain of the United States!
In the face of Liu Dong's inquiry, Del Roosevelt couldn't help but smile bitterly and nodded, as an American, he was really angry and ashamed to encounter such a thing, if it wasn't for this kind of thing that couldn't be hidden. He would never take the initiative to say it to Liu Dong.
Actually, not Del Roosevelt. Even Colonel Brown, who was not smiling next to him, twitched the corners of his mouth, and his face was a little ugly, as an American soldier sitting and watching such a thing happen, they should be most ashamed.
"Mr. Liu, we have sent the news of your survival back to Washington, including me, the U.S. Department of Defense Investigation Bureau, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the National Security Transportation Committee, the Indian Nation Administration, the White House Office, the Arizona State Government and the ...... Court!"
"You wait!" Liu Dong hurriedly stopped the other party.
Looking at Colonel Brown's questioning eyes, Liu Dong hurriedly said, "How many departments want me to cooperate with the investigation?"
"Eighteen!" Brown affirmed, looking at Wen Jiàn.
"18? Are you mistaken, I am a righteous and courageous act, not a criminal, or a criminal, I don't need so many departments to interrogate me, right?" Liu Dong said in a dissatisfied tone.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Del Roosevelt next to him made a round, "Liu, don't be surprised, in fact, this is normal in the United States, and it is precisely by relying on these seemingly cumbersome procedures that we have created the world's first civilized country, where everyone is equal and free!" In addition, this incident is too serious, not only involving terrorist attacks, but also the number of dead and injured after the plane made a forced landing, the feelings of the citizens need to be appeased, the families need to be explained, and it also involves the Indians, and the national issue must be taken seriously. ”
“…… In addition, Liu, although you are righteous and brave, and have protected the lives of hundreds of people, but you have killed too many people, in the United States, a society that pays attention to human rights, the death of hundreds of people is almost a massacre, so we must be responsible for your reputation, so there are so many departments involved in the investigation, I believe that the final result will be able to satisfy you!"
Compared with the cold Colonel Brown, Del Roosevelt, an old politician, is undoubtedly much more tactful.
"But I don't have that much time!" Liu Dong frowned.
"I remember, didn't you say you're visiting the United States?" said Del Roosevelt.
"Travel is only secondary, and the main reason I came to the United States this time was to attend the Christie's auction in New York on September 15! If I don't go now, I'm afraid I won't have time!" Liu Dong said directly.
"Christie's auction, if that's your goal, then you don't have to rush!" Roosevelt laughed.
"Why?"
"Because of the outbreak of 9/11, the economy of the United States and even the world is in big trouble, and all the rich people are concerned about how much their stock market assets have shrunk, and no one is attending the auction anymore, so Christie's management has decided to postpone the auction on September 15 for 20 days and reopen it on October 5, so you now have enough time to stay in the United States and spend an unforgettable vacation!" laughed Del Roosevelt.
"How do you know this?" Liu Dong said curiously.
"Because I went to New York for the same purpose as you did, I was notified by Christie's after I left the damn plane crash!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong nodded knowingly.
At this time, after the love between Ivanka's father and daughter settled down, they had already walked towards Liu Dong.
"Dad. Let me tell you about it. This is Liu Dong I told you about just now. He was the one who saved me from the plane, and later, at the risk of his life, he saved me a second time from some Indian cannibals. If he hadn't taken care of me all the way, you might never have seen me again!"
Donald Trump glanced at his daughter, then looked at Liu Dong again before reaching out, "Mr. Liu, as a father, I am very grateful for your help to my daughter. If you have any conditions that you can mention, I am willing to do my best to satisfy you!"
Although the other party said these words with sincerity and sincerity, Liu Dong was not a fool, and of course he heard the voices of others.
However, because of Ivanka's affection, Liu Dong only raised his eyebrows, but before he could think about how he should answer.
Ivanka next to her had already spoken: "Dad, what do you say, Liu Dong was able to save me out of kindness, not for money or other things!"
For Ivanka's answer. Liu Dong is not surprised, after all, the other party is a talented girl from Georgetown University and Wharton School. It's just that Liu Dong didn't expect Ivanka's answer to come so quickly.
But this also happens to mean that the other party is really in love with him!
This is where Liu Dong is really happy.
After all, for whatever reason, he didn't want his woman to end up leaving him to lie under another man's crotch.
"Mr. Trump, I didn't save people to get money or some kind of reward, otherwise I should have asked everyone to write me an IOU equivalent to their lives when I was on the plane!
Liu Dong's words were categorical and very unkind.
Because, after these days of experience in the United States, he knows very well that this is a completely different society from China, where it is not a virtue to flaunt subtlety, but to appreciate and show your personality and strength, and the stronger you are, the more you can be respected by others.
And what is the strength?
Money!
In capitalist society, the belief is in naked money, as long as you have money, you can get what you want, and even manipulate the US presidential election.
This is the reality of the United States, the policy of the United States, and the economy determines the economy, not the domestic politics!
Although Liu Dong looked confident and said categorically, it was a little funny in the eyes of Donald Trump, a young man who was not much older than his daughter dared to say that his wealth was more than he had won in his lifetime, did he think he was Bill Gates?
It's a pity that after so many years, only Bill Gates can make a fortune of two or three billion dollars from scratch in his early twenties!
Not only Donald Trump didn't believe it, but even Del Roosevelt and the cold Colonel Brown looked at him with suspicion.
Perhaps the only one who has some confidence in him is Ivanka. Of course, this is only out of trust between lovers.
"Young man, lying or arrogance is not a quality that a gentleman should have, and as a young man you should learn to be humble and respectful in front of a successful elder!" said Donald in a didactic tone.
But Liu Dong doesn't eat this, although he is likely to become his cheap father-in-law in the future!
Of course, considering that the two will get along in the future, Liu Dong's attitude cannot be bad, "For you, of course, I will guarantee humility and respect, but I am not lying, or arrogant, if you don't believe it, you can go to China to investigate, I believe you can get a more authentic answer at that time!"
Seeing that Liu Dong's face did not seem to be fake, Donald was silent for a while, and then couldn't help but say, "Do you know how much wealth I have?"
"I don't know, but as long as it doesn't exceed $3 billion, I think I'm worth more than you!"
Liu Dong's words made the hearts of the people around him tremble violently.
A young man in his early twenties actually said that he had a net worth of more than $3 billion, and even the children of a big family in the United States could not let his wealth exceed this amount at this age.
In 2001, the dollar had not yet depreciated, and $3 billion was still an unimaginably large number. (To be continued......)
