Chapter 126 Unconventional Operation

Li Changgen is not used to American-style garden villas, so he always feels that there are fewer wooden villas.

This is a small town in the suburbs of New York metropolitan area, with only a few thousand people. It is all small wooden villas with green lawns and excellent environment.

Li Changgen lives in the home of his friend Zhang Shengdong, a Chinese American. His account in the United States, etc. were all handled by Zhang Shengdong at the time.

Li Changgen has been a little depressed recently. Except for Zhang Shengdong's house, he seems to be unable to go anywhere. He can't understand the people in the town and does not know how to communicate with them. Moreover, even at Zhang Shengdong's house, Zhang Shengdong and his Arab wife also talk in English. Sometimes the two of them suddenly laughed as they talked, and Li Changgen didn't know what they were laughing at.

This feeling is very difficult.

Yesterday was even more bolt from the blue. The freckled female immigration officer responsible for interviewing her notified that because the evidence of persecution in China was not clear enough, her application was rejected and her case would be heard in the immigration court next.

I always feel that the female immigration officer is very unfriendly to me and her eyes are full of disgust. Perhaps, it is just an illusion.

Sitting in front of the backyard door and looking at the two dogs playing on the lawn, Li Changgen thought in a depressed manner that there were already a pile of cigarette butts in the ashtray.

As soon as the wind chime rang, Zhang Shengdong and a Western man in a suit and tie came over. Li Changgen's eyes lit up, he stood up anxiously and said, "Mr. Williams, what should I do next?" He had been waiting for several hours.

Williams is the lawyer hired by Zhang Shengdong, who specializes in immigration lawsuits and is said to be very famous.

Williams smiled and said something. Zhang Shengdong translated: "Don't be anxious, Williams will help you with it."

Li Changgen sighed and asked, "Next, should we go to court?" Although the female immigration officer seemed to dislike him, the next procedure was explained to him clearly.

Williams sat opposite Li Changgen, still half a head taller than Li Changgen. His confident expression made Li Changgen feel slightly relieved.

Williams looked through the information in his hand and said something else.

Li Changgen looked at Zhang Shengdong with help, and Zhang Shengdong said: "If you apply for court, it can be delayed for many years. If you are rejected, you can still appeal. However, if the appeal is finally rejected, you will be deported. Moreover, in recent years, nothing will be guaranteed. For example, China and the United States have signed an extradition agreement, such as the United Nations passing an anti-corruption convention, and China amending the criminal law, can be tried in absentia, etc. In short, there are many variables, and you will be in trouble at that time."

Li Changgen nodded silently. American lawyers are indeed very professional and have never thought about them for a long time.

"What should I do?" Li Changgen asked anxiously again.

Zhang Shengdong: "Williams means to help you think of a solution once and for all, so that you can sign a few documents first."

Li Changgen nodded, followed Zhang Shengdong's instructions and signed his English name on the documents handed over by Williams.

Williams looked at the document with satisfaction, said something to Zhang Shengdong, and got up and left.

Zhang Shengdong smiled at Li Changgen and said, "He is very busy, but don't worry, he ranks first in your case during this period."

Li Changgen smiled bitterly and said, "Understand." Indeed, lawyers like Williams are consulting ordinary legal issues, and the hourly lawyer fees are expensive.

The next morning, when Li Changgen was still in a hazy sleep, he suddenly heard the door bang and the chaotic footsteps. Someone was shouting something in English. He got up and was startled by the scene in front of him. Two police officers in uniforms, with the black muzzle of the pistol at him, and shouting something loudly.

Li Changgen was shocked and at a loss.

"Don't move around, grow roots, listen to me, don't move around, do what they say, otherwise they will really be able to shoot." Zhang Shengdong, who followed the two policemen, shouted loudly. "Raise your hands, slowly, go to the wall, lie on the wall, slowly, don't move too quickly."

Li Changgen had just settled down as Zhang Shengdong said, but then someone pressed his head hard and a few thick hands savagely groped on him.

Li Changgen's mind was blank, and he didn't know what was going on.

After eliminating the danger, the two American policemen put away their guns, then pulled Li Changgen's arm roughly and pulled him outside the house.

The freckled female immigration officer was outside the house. From the window, she could see the police car with lights flashing outside the villa garden.

The female immigration official said a few words. The black-haired woman beside her translated into Chinese, but Li Changgen's mind was buzzing. After a while, he only heard that the female translator seemed to be saying that because she voluntarily signed the voluntary signing to give up the right to go to the immigration court, she no longer complained about the application for political asylum, and after the legal stay period, she would be deported.

Because Li Yougen came to the United States in a hurry and his passport visa was about to expire, the US Customs Immigration Department only approved his stay for one week when he entered the country. If the application for political asylum is revoked, it will be illegally detained.

But, why is this happening? Li Changgen still didn't understand when he was taken to the yard.

On the other side, Zhang Shengdong and the female immigration officer whispered something, and received approval. Then he came to Li Changgen, sighed, and hugged Li Changgen and said goodbye.

Li Changgen has always been disgusted with this Western etiquette, but at this moment, he has no reaction. He just stared at Zhang Shengdong, and he intuitively knew that he must have been betrayed by him and Williams.

Zhang Shengdong sighed and whispered: "Changgen, don't blame me, someone must ask you to go back. I don't know who this person is, but I can't do anything about it."

"You bastard" Li Changgen suddenly burst out, and he punched Zhang Shengdong in the face, then rushed over and hit him. He was immediately pressed to the ground by the thick black policeman, and severe pain came from his waist. Then the severe pain spread throughout his body, as if the whole body was being stabbed by a needle. The feeling of electric current raged in his body was extremely clear. He looked dark and fainted.

Lu Zheng returned to Wushan two days earlier than the economic and trade delegation. Three days after the economic and trade delegation returned to Wushan, news came from the New York Consulate General that Li Changgen had been deported by the US and was sent to the Consulate General. Tomorrow, the consulate staff will send him to Beijing and ask someone from Wushan to pick him up.

At that time, Lu Zhengzheng and Du Kecheng introduced Huo Qinqun's visit to Huo Qinqun in the office.

Also present are Propaganda Minister Xiong Zongwu and Executive Vice Mayor Chen Jiaqiang, who are the main behind-the-scenes organizers of this economic and trade group visit to the United States.

Huo Qinqun smiled and affirmed the efforts of the Propaganda Department and relevant departments of the municipal government for this successful visit to the United States.

Lu Zheng talked about the meeting between the Republican and Democratic congressmen, and talked about his hope to promote the successful resolution of the Li Changgen incident through these more important congressmen in the American political circle.

Xiong Zongwu drank tea and said lukewarmly: "It seems that Li Changgen is out of hope for extradition. I had a lot of hope."

Chen Jiaqiang smiled and said, "Secretary Zongwu, you may not understand the immigration policy of the United States. Let's put it this way, the United States has a quota for China's political asylum applications every year, about 10,000. Therefore, there is a joke among the people, 'Money immigrants and no money refugees, applying for political asylum has become a regular channel for obtaining a US green card. Moreover, during the application for political asylum, you can obtain a legal identity in the United States. Even if you are rejected, you can still go to the immigration court. If you are rejected in the immigration court, you can appeal. This will take a few years. In these years, if you find a way to marry an American citizen, the green card will be almost obtained. Therefore, the Li Changgen incident can be said to be a very systematic project. If you want to deport him back to China, you may not be able to do it in a few years. I think the mayor's idea is still right. Taking diplomatic channels will make things more complicated. It is a safe way to exert influence on American politicians."

Xiong Zongwu raised his eyelids and said, "How many years?" He smiled and sarcastically, so he drank tea and stopped talking.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "It may take several years to use conventional means, but Li Changgen doesn't know much about the situation in the United States and makes up stories to deceive American politicians. I have taken advantage of this contradiction a little bit. I am optimistically estimating that there may be results in the past few days."

Just as he was talking, the pager rang. Lu Zheng took it out and looked at it, and was slightly stunned, saying, "I didn't expect it to be very fast. The message from Consul General of Fan Haihui of our Consulate General in New York said that he didn't find me by phone. Now Li Changgen is already at the Consulate General, asking us to pick up people at the Beijing Airport tomorrow afternoon."

Even Du Kecheng was stunned. In fact, no one would have thought that Li Changgen would be deported from the United States. He thought it would be delayed for two or three years at the earliest. When Lu Zheng said he would go to the United States to bring people back, he really brought them back.

Chen Jiaqiang has always known that Lu Zheng is very capable, but in the United States, he is very unexpected. He secretly gave Lu Zheng a thumbs up.

Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "This time we are unconventional methods, and we are mostly lucky. We should mainly sound an alarm for officials who fled due to economic problems. However, I think this alarm is not enough. We still need to improve laws and regulations and have similar incidents happen again. We negotiate with the US side with a dignified army. This is the right way."

Lu Zheng was talking about his personal feelings, but Xiong Zongwu snorted coldly in his heart, Lu Zheng was just a cheap and acted good-for-bearing, but he didn't believe it. How much does Li Changgen's repatriation have to do with him must be negotiated by the foreign affairs department. But he was indeed lucky, I am afraid that in the future, the Yu Department of the two courtyards of the courts of the two courtyards would rumor that Li Changgen was brought back from the United States, and that he would say how powerful he did what he said and did.
