Chapter 1009: Shameless Americans (4)
To prove that it was indeed a coincidence, the hapless Thompson spent seven days and seven nights in prison before he was finally released on bail by a lawyer from the Far Eastern Group instead of a lawyer from the United Oil Company of California. The U.S. ambassador to Russia tried his best to mediate the matter that was not settled, and Jiang Peng made a trip to Los Angeles to solve it, even if he tried his best to explain that it was a coincidence, but in the eyes of Kane and Edward, it was Sun Ziming who was showing their muscles.
Either the matter should be discussed in his way, and do not have the luxury of waiting for the evidence to be obtained, and then go to his lion's mouth; Or, everyone broke up and continued to look for evidence by themselves, while he took the initiative to find out what was going on.
In '98, some American media reported on the bad things that Xingtian Society did, and Sun Ziming never denied it. Now that Thompson is caught and let go like this, Old Parry will definitely recall him back to China, and then borrow the mouths of their father and son, and then let those tabloids, magazines, websites, and the like who want to go crazy with the inside story be rendered, and the water will be completely muddy, and the balance of public opinion will be tilted in their favor. Compared with those who have a good reputation, the CIA and FBI have suffered a lot of damage to their reputation because of 911, and they have the bias of public opinion, and even if they get strong evidence, they will be in a disadvantageous position.
However, Edward and Kane never thought that China Ming, who had always been known for being tough and uncompromising, was not afraid of these at all, and was afraid of a kidnapping case that he did not know about. In other words, even Jiang Peng, who was trying his best, didn't know, as long as Sun Ziming confirmed that Edward only knew about the Xingtian Society, I am afraid that what would follow would be a counterattack without any worries!
…………
However, the chairman of the Republican Senate National Committee, Parry Sr., is grateful to Jiang Peng. His own son knows that he has the ability and courage to quickly become the general manager, but he also has the problem of lust and drug abuse. Nine times out of ten, this time it happened to hit the loose mouth and offended a certain powerful person in Russia.
In order to express his gratitude, after learning that his son was safe, Old Parry hosted a special banquet for Jiang Peng in a private club.
"Peng, thank you so much, if you let Jessica know, you'll have to go crazy."
Jiang Peng, who had already received the group's early listing notice, touched a glass with Parry and said with a smile: "You are too polite, if it wasn't for your strong support, I wouldn't have been able to get to where I am today." ”
Referring to the 911 disaster, Parry, as a survivor, sighed, if this young man hadn't had a yellow face, he would definitely have a chance to enter the White House in the future.
'Hehehe', Jiang Peng laughed dryly, shook his head regretfully, but mentioned another thing in his mouth, "Mr. Parry, you'd better let Thompson go back to China first, and then go back when it's safe over there." ”
This is a good intention, but it is difficult to find a job with an annual salary of one million, Parry smiled and said, "It's okay, Thompson told me that he reconciled with someone else." Hey, he's an adult, and my opinion is useless. ”
Jiang Peng hesitated for a moment, put down the wine glass containing the blood-red Lafite, and continued to persuade: "Parry, we are friends, I advise you to listen to my opinion and let Thompson return to China first." ”
Well? Parry stopped his knife and fork, looked at Jiang Peng suspiciously, and said in a deep voice: "Peng, although we belong to different parties, we are also very good friends. If there is anything that will involve my family, please don't hide it from me. ”
"You really don't know?"
Jiang Peng's pretended surprise made Parry even more puzzled, "What do I know?" ”
"Ok", Jiang Peng waved his hand and asked the waiter to leave the small dining room before whispering: "Parry, you are the chairman of the Republican Senate National Committee, and you have such a good relationship with the president." Don't you know that this Thompson incident was purely a troublemaker? ”
Parry's face is black, it is normal for politicians to fight all the time for profit, but it is one of the rules that everyone defaults to!
"It seems that you really don't know, Parry, there are some things that I am inconvenient for, and you can listen to me without being wrong. Trust me, I won't hurt you. ”
The more Jiang Peng behaved, the more nervous Parry became, and he couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Peng, I am grateful for your great help to me, but don't forget that after 911, without my cooperation and cooperation, you would not have become one of the leaders of the Democratic Party." ”
Parry said this, so that Jiang Peng couldn't help but remind him: "Parry, there may be something that you don't know very well. Thompson's job was actually introduced by us, and he was able to become the general manager in Russia so smoothly, which was also a secret help from us. ”
"What? Why? ”
Parry was stunned, he always thought that it was his son's ability to make their company not consider that he was a Republican, but he didn't expect that Jiang Peng was helping. Jiang Peng was a little emotional, in fact, this favor was given by Sun Ziming who wanted to put a nail in Shantino's camp, but he didn't expect to use it today.
"God, why are you doing this?"
Everyone is playing with their hearts, and Jiang Peng did not hide it: "Parry, have you forgotten that I used to be the general manager of the light and shadow company?" ”
Thinking about it together, Parry realized that his child was the nail of the famous China Ming, and it was not really a coincidence that he was arrested and imprisoned. But since Thompson is someone's nail, why do you want to go back to China?
Jiang Peng didn't answer directly, but poured him some wine, and then whispered: "Parry, we're in trouble......"
"What?"
Parry was stunned again, but he also knew that it must be the Wall Street gang who caught something and wanted to take advantage of it. This matter made him very entangled, and Jiang Peng was able to tell him the whole story, just to seek his help. helped, after success, they will not treat themselves badly, and it is a sure thing that Thompson will become a shareholder of the current company; If you don't help, then hurry up and let Thompson come back, so as not to hurt the pond fish.
Of course, if you don't dare to meddle in this matter, then please shut up, otherwise Jiang Peng, who is well-connected with him in the future, will be an enemy, not an opponent with different political views.
…………
Parry's troubles didn't last long, and after dinner with Jiang Peng, Edward came to the door himself. The other party can come to the door so quickly, and it must be in their hands, and Parry easily made a choice. Of course, Parry also chose to be the general manager of his son because he had to choose to forget about the help of someone behind him.
"Director Edward, I was elected by the voters, and I will definitely stand in the position of safeguarding the interests of the country."
Edward's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly promised: "Believe me, Thompson must be a child with a great future. Now Russia's shape is not good, why don't you let him return to China first? ”
"No, no, that job is very important to him, and I'm afraid it's hard for me to convince him to give it up."
Parry's bargaining made Edward compromise and promise a position that was only high and not low, so that the old fox promised not to interfere.
But when Edward said goodbye from Parry's house, and just got into the car to take the list handed by his assistant, his scalp couldn't help but tingle. Peng's bastard is too good at tossing, he actually ran away from a senator's house, and let his assistant run away from a house, he wants the whole of Washington to know?
There was silence in the car for a while, Edward picked up the phone and called Jiang Peng, warning him not to betray the organization, otherwise he would bear the consequences, but as soon as he put down the phone, the shrill bell rang again. Edward listened to two sentences and said excitedly: "Well done, just keep an eye on the guest, don't let him out of your sight!" ”
