Chapter 62: Words to Heart
Early the next morning, Xiao Yang got up for a morning jog as usual, and as soon as he left the door of the apartment building, he was blocked by a large number of reporters. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Xiao, can you explain the specific reason for being interrogated and handcuffed by the patrol police yesterday?"
"Sunny, why did the patrol officer stop your car, was it because you were driving without a license, speeding, or carrying some contraband?"
"Mr. Xiao, regarding your prediction in the news about the final winners of this year's Golden Globe Awards, the Hollywood Foreign Press Club has come forward to refute the rumors that it is pure speculation, will you refute this statement in public in the media?"
"Shaw, hey, Shaw, Shaw! Look here, is the second prophecy you gave in an interview related to the list of this year's Oscars? ”
Although it is not the first time to experience a similar scene, the feeling of being blocked at the door of the house early in the morning will not be very pleasant, of course, Xiao Yang will not put this disgust on his face, and casually perfunctory a few official articles such as "Due to contract restrictions, I can't accept interviews, please pay attention to the relevant reports of "USA Today", taking advantage of the opportunity for everyone to listen attentively, he suddenly accelerated his speed, and left these dedicated reporters off a distance, seeing that they were still chasing after him, and simply made a mistake. Turning his head into the campus of the California Institute of Technology, the open campus does not prohibit nearby residents from coming in for a run or morning exercise, and if you rush in with a camera and video camera, you will face the campus police to block and warn.
After running around the quiet and deep campus, taking the opportunity to get rid of the tracking of reporters and paparazzi, Xiao Yang deliberately went around and returned to the apartment, picked up the newspaper and milk placed at the door, opened the door and entered the house, put it on the coffee table, and turned into the bathroom.
When he was taking a shower, he heard the phone ringing in the living room, he didn't pay attention to the shower liquid just after he had just dialed the shower, and after the bell rang a few times, he turned to the automatic answering machine, and heard the voice of his uncle Lin Yuanhang coming out of the speaker: "If you are at home, stinky boy, it is best to pick up the phone immediately and give me, the lawyer and guardian, a reasonable explanation: why don't you say hello to me and go to the police station without permission, otherwise I will drive directly to the door!" ”
Xiao Yang, who was already familiar with this unscrupulous uncle's work habits and work style, did not take his threat to heart at all, knowing that he did not come to work in the law firm so early, so he took a shower step by step, wrapped a bath towel around his waist, poured milk into the milk pot and sat on the gas stove, then slowly returned to the living room, picked up the phone and dialed back, "Good morning, Lawyer Lin." ”
"Okay, you big-headed ghost, yesterday morning I praised you for being cool-headed and organized, why did you have convulsions in the afternoon, what stimulated you?"
Xiao Yang thought about it carefully, "Have you ever praised me like this?" ”
"Of course I ...... Can I boast in my heart? Lin Yuanhang was a little crazy, "Don't divert the topic, you kid, let me ask you, what are you thinking in your head, just get rid of the accusation, you want to cause some new trouble?" ”
"I'm sure I'm not going to ask for trouble, but sometimes, trouble comes its way." After roughly recounting the experience of being stopped and humiliated by the patrol police, Xiao Yang said wait a minute, went to turn off the stove, and returned to the phone to continue: "I know what you are worried about, but the matter is not as serious as you think, there are so many plots of black police in Hollywood film and television dramas, newspapers and TV stations talk about the abuse of force by the police every day, and they have not been retaliated against, which shows that under the constraints of law and public opinion, the police have much more to worry about than us civilians." ”
Lin Yuanhang snorted, "Of course I know this, and I don't object to you going to the police station to ask for an explanation, if necessary, we can even sue them in court, but accuse them of racial discrimination and publish them in the newspaper?" Do you know how much trouble you can get yourself in? ”
"I know, but I'm not going to swallow it, because we Chinese have endured the humiliation for long enough, and if no one is willing to stand up and declare their rights, then let me be the first bird, as for whether doing so will cause trouble...... Don't forget that I'm a prophet. Xiao Yang pretended to be relieved a few words, and asked on this topic: "But you, my dear uncle, have you ever considered doing a part-time job?" ”
"Part-time?" Lin Yuanhang was confused by his divine turn, "What part-time job?" ”
"That's ......"
After listening to his thoughts, Lin Yuanhang was speechless for a long time, "Why did you suddenly remember to ...... Okay, I'll admit it's a good idea, and it's feasible, but it's too early to talk about it, so let's talk about it depending on the situation. ”
"You have the final say, my lawyer and temporary guardian." Xiao Yang looked up at his watch, "If there is nothing else, I will hang up first, I am going to take that emotional control course today, and it is always a little unreasonable to be late for the first time." ”
"There are a couple of things, and I'll try to make a long story short, a guy named Brian Weiss called and said he wanted to invite you to Yale University for his occult seminar, and I looked into his background, this guy is an MD from Yale University in the United States, and now he is an attending psychiatrist at the university's medical research institute, specializing in biomedical psychiatry and substance abuse, and he is quite famous in the industry."
"I still have to discuss if I go to college, what is the occult seminar, and should I be a guinea pig for him?" Xiao Yang rolled his eyes angrily, "Thank him for me, mother, what else?" ”
"And 15 minutes ago, Ivan Chandler's lawyer called and threatened to sue you for defamation; A representative from Sony Records contacted me yesterday and said he wanted to pay for the rights to your piano piece; Three other girls called to claim to be pregnant with your child; And of course, there are countless requests for interviews...... No kidding, you'd better find a damn broker right away, or I'll count all that phone answering effort into your legal business consultation time! ”
"If you wish, remember to give me a discount." Putting down the phone, Xiao Yang thought about it carefully, and finally made sure that there was no dating record in his diary, nor did he have any contact information for girls, shook his head funny, went back to the kitchen and made himself two egg and ham sandwiches, and brought them to the table with milk, and read today's newspaper while eating.
As he expected, USA Today devoted its entire front page to his prophecy under the headline "They're Killing M.J!" The following quotes his arguments almost identically, including his allegations of serious racism against the Los Angeles Police Department and prosecutors.
When I opened the second edition, I saw a large photo of him handcuffed behind his back, pressed to the lid of the chassis by an unreasonable white patrol officer, with a narration attached to it: "Stopped for no reason, just because the white police think that Chinese Americans are not qualified to drive BMW around the world!" ”
It's really heart-wrenching!
