Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 2789 A false alarm

The upper class circles in the United States have always been relatively xenophobic, and their attitude towards the Chinese is even more infuriating, because they are even worse than black people.

As for why this is the case? Many things are actually hard to explain clearly. Xenophobia is a common trait, such as the old saying "If you are not of my race, your heart must be different."

Yang Geyong is currently facing such a dilemma. In this incident itself, although the whole thing seems that he is an illegal intruder.

In the United States, if someone breaks in illegally, the owner can use a gun to defend himself. Remember, it is self-defense, not expulsion. In other words, they can just shoot you.

But the premise is that the house was bought by Yang Geyong, and this man is Linda's boyfriend, not her husband. In this way, things are not so simple.
If you want to save Yang Geyong, you can only do something about it. Of course, it is definitely very difficult, after all, in theory, Yang Geyong has no relationship with Linda.

However, no matter how difficult it is, things have to be done. Currently, Ye Yuze's trump card is his son Ye Feng's sister company, which is already one of the top companies in the United States and is very influential.

Moreover, the fourth brother has now become a very influential senator in the Senate and is preparing to run for Speaker in the next term.

With these backings, Ye Yuze was fully aware of the difficulty of this incident, but Yang Geyong was his brother, and he could not sit idly by no matter what.

He quickly gathered the most capable team around him, including public relations experts, legal advisors and senior executives from sister companies, to discuss countermeasures.

The atmosphere in the conference room was solemn. Everyone sat around a huge conference table with detailed information about Yang Geyong's case in front of them.

Ye Yuze was the first to break the silence, his eyes firm and serious:
"Everyone, Yang Geyong is in deep trouble now. We must do everything we can to rescue him."

"At present, we have two cards: Ye Feng's sister company and Lao Si's influence in the Senate. Let's brainstorm and see how to play them."

Public relations expert Lin En pushed up his glasses and spoke first:

"If we start with public opinion, we can use Facebook and our sister news groups to first restore the truth of the incident to the public."

"Moreover, Yang Geyong was the buyer of the house and he did not know in advance that Linda already had a boyfriend."

"The fact that the other party was holding a gun was itself a dangerous act. We should guide the public to think that in such a dangerous situation, Yang Geyong's counterattack was out of self-defense instinct."

"But American society's views on such cases are often influenced by many factors, especially when it comes to race and class issues. We must be careful to avoid causing greater resentment."

Legal Counsel Jack continued:

"From a legal perspective, although Yang Geyong fought back and killed the other party, the definition of self-defense is very complicated under the US legal system."

"We need to collect sufficient evidence to prove that Yang Geyong was indeed in an emergency situation where his life was threatened."

"For example, trace evidence at the scene, possible eyewitnesses, and past disputes between Linda and her ex-boyfriend may all become key factors affecting the direction of the case."

Mark, a senior executive of the brother company, also nodded in agreement:

"Our company has a certain influence in the U.S. business community. We can unite some friendly business partners to put pressure on the judiciary and the government and express our expectations for a fair trial."

"But we need to strike a balance so that the outside world does not think we are interfering improperly."

Ye Yuze listened carefully to everyone's speech and quickly formed a preliminary response plan in his mind. He said:

"Lin En, you must immediately organize a team to publish carefully planned reports on Facebook and Brother News Group to guide public opinion, but you must pay attention to the wording and rhythm and not rush it."

Jack, you are responsible for leading the legal team to thoroughly investigate the case details, collect all favorable evidence, and maintain close communication with the judicial department to understand their investigation progress and concerns. "

"Mark, go contact our business partners and form an alliance to support a fair trial. But remember, all actions must be carried out within the framework of legality and compliance."

Everyone took the order and left, and a tense crisis public relations and difficult game began.

Ye Feng looked at his father with admiration. This old man had always been lazy and didn't even take care of his own business.

But once something happens to people around him, he will immediately respond in the most effective way, just like a general who is well-informed.

The public relations team led by Lin En acted quickly and carefully wrote a series of reports that detailed the legal process of Yang Geyong's purchase of the house and the tense scene at the time of the incident.

Through Facebook and Brother News Group's platforms, these reports spread rapidly and attracted widespread attention from all walks of life.

Some people began to express sympathy for Yang Geyong's experience and questioned whether the police's characterization of the case was fair.

Although there may be conflicts between law and morality, the jury system has this advantage: although the statement is cruel, how can it be cruel?

Legally speaking, Yang Geyong is a criminal. The facts are proven. He broke into a private residence and attacked the gun-wielding owner, causing his death.

But from a moral point of view, there was nothing wrong with him falling in love with Linda. After falling in love with her, he bought her a house, and then he took the initiative to leave when they broke up.

The focus of the conflict now is that Yang Geyong came back to try to save the relationship, and he didn't know that Linda had a new boyfriend so soon.

Suddenly a man came out of the house with a gun. He naturally didn't understand what was going on. He thought Linda and Alyssa were murdered, so he fought back.

If this assumption is true, Yang Geyong's guilt would definitely not exist, and how to define the responsibility between him and that person would require careful study.

However, their actions also provoked a counterattack from the opposing camp.

Linda's boyfriend's family background should not be underestimated. They also hired a powerful public relations team to try to discredit Yang Geyong, portraying him as a violent intruder and claiming that his feelings for Linda have always been a harassment and threat.

For a time, the public opinion field was filled with smoke of war, with both sides holding different views. The people were also divided into two factions, arguing endlessly.

At the same time, the legal team led by Jack also encountered many difficulties.

The police's investigation into the case seemed to be interfered with by some force, and progress was slow and direction was unclear.

Key witnesses either disappeared or refused to testify, and some trace evidence at the scene seemed to have been deliberately destroyed.

Jack knew very well that there must be someone behind this, trying to hinder them from getting a fair trial for Yang Geyong.

But with Ye Yuze around, Jack would never give up. He and his team members ran around looking for clues hidden behind the scenes.

By investigating Linda's boyfriend's social circle, they discovered some unknown secrets. It turned out that this man was a famous playboy in the local area, often using his wealth and status to harass women, and even had a history of violent threats to others several times, but was suppressed by the power of his family.

Jack was overjoyed. He quickly compiled the information into evidence, submitted it to the judicial authorities, and made appropriate exposure through the media.

This move once again caused an uproar in public opinion. People were shocked and angry about the true face of Linda's ex-boyfriend, and their sympathy for Yang Geyong further increased.

In the business world, Mark successfully united a group of influential business partners to form an organization called the Fair Trial Alliance.

The organization issued a public statement calling on the judicial authorities to handle Yang Geyong's case fairly and transparently, emphasizing that everyone is equal before the law and should not be interfered with by any external forces.

The establishment of the alliance attracted the attention of government departments, and some lawmakers also began to express concern about the case, demanding that the judicial department speed up the investigation and give the public a reasonable explanation.

However, the other side did not intend to give up easily. They used their connections in the political circles to try to suppress the Fair Trial Alliance.

Some alliance members began to be investigated and harassed by government departments, and their business activities were also affected to a certain extent.

Mark was under tremendous pressure, but he still stood firmly on Ye Yuze's side and faced these challenges together with other members.

In this fierce game, the fourth brother also played an important role in the Senate.

He used his influence to initiate a discussion on judicial fairness within the Senate, using the Yang Geyong case as a typical example and calling on members of parliament to pay attention to possible problems in the judicial system.

His remarks attracted widespread attention within the Senate, and some senators who had previously remained neutral began to express sympathy for the case and put pressure on the judicial department to handle it fairly.

As various forces intervened, the case attracted more and more attention. Finally, the judicial department could not bear the pressure from all walks of life and restarted the in-depth investigation of the case.

With the new evidence provided by Jack and the promotion of public opinion, the direction of the investigation gradually developed in a direction favorable to Yang Geyong.

Ye Yuze went to meet Linda in person. Because she was a party involved, her testimony would play a crucial role in the entire case.

When Linda saw Ye Yuze, she felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look him in the eye.

Ye Yuze did not discuss the case with her, but just chatted with the little girl Alyssa. Alyssa had a good impression of Yang Geyong.

She kept begging her mother to help Uncle Yang, but Linda remained silent. Ye Yuze could see that this woman loved Yang Geyong.

It was just that Yang Geyong's philandering disappointed her, so this incident happened. It can be said that Linda had no feelings for this boyfriend and just wanted to forget Yang Geyong.

Ye Yuze left without saying a word about this matter. When he came, many people followed him, more than a dozen cars. When he left, the street became quiet in an instant.

At night, a car drove up, two dark figures got out, and quickly entered Linda's house through the open window.

Inside the house, Linda was sitting in the living room drinking, and Alyssa had gone back to sleep. Faced with the two men who suddenly appeared, Linda screamed.

But before she could make a sound, her mouth was covered. Because both men were wearing hoods, Linda couldn't see their faces.

A man threatened in a stern voice: "Don't shout. You know Mike's identity. Don't be stupid enough to help a yellow man, otherwise you and your daughter will end up in a miserable situation."

Linda looked at them in horror. Before she could say anything, a figure rushed out from behind and knocked down the two gunmen with a quick punch and a kick.

Then he opened the door, and Ye Feng and several fully armed policemen rushed in.

The father and son smiled knowingly and watched the police take the man away. Ye Yuze had recorded the entire process. Wasn't he afraid that they would say something after entering the police station?

Linda lay in Ye Yuze's arms and sobbed. Ye Yuze patted her on the back:
"I can't help you with your relationship, but I know that my brother is definitely more reliable than this dead guy."

Linda nodded desperately but was speechless. I believe she really understood.

After a long and difficult investigation and trial process, the court finally made a judgment.

The judge determined that Yang Geyong had indeed acted in self-defense under the circumstances at the time and accidentally killed Linda's boyfriend.

In other words, there was nothing wrong with the actions of both people, they were both legitimate acts of self-protection, and Yang Geyong was acquitted.

When the news came, Ye Yuze and his team breathed a sigh of relief.

The moment Yang Geyong walked out of the court, the sunlight shone on him, and there was no emotion change in his eyes.

He knew that as long as Ye Yuze was there, he would be fine, no matter what he did?
Ye Feng held a cocktail party for Yang Geyong, and both new and old friends came to welcome him.

Ye Yuze looked at Yang Geyong and spoke like an old father:
"We are not afraid of anyone, but we should be careful. You are old enough to get into trouble for these things. Do you really love Linda that much?"

Yang Geyong looked at Ye Yuze with a confused look on his face and asked:
"Who is Linda? Your new girlfriend?"

Ye Yuze kicked him, but Yang Geyong dodged with a smile, then grabbed a bottle of wine and drank it all.

Ye Feng came over with his glass and clinked glasses with him. Yang Geyong patted Ye Feng's shoulder regretfully:

"They got me out too quickly. I wasn't even a prison bully. I just conquered one cell."

Everyone burst into laughter. This guy will never change his character until he dies.

Zhou Guihua cursed: "You conquered my ass, you are surrounded by my people, do you think it's fun to bully them?"

Yang Geyong was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized what was going on. He slapped his thigh and shouted, "I was wondering how he became the big brother after just a few days in prison. There's not even anyone to challenge him."

Everyone raised their glasses and cheered for this hard-earned victory.

However, Ye Yuze knew in his heart that although this incident had come to a temporary end, in such a complex social environment as the United States, Chinese people still had a long way to go if they wanted to truly gain equal status and respect.

But he didn't care. The sister company had already been established. The reason why the Jews could call the shots was because they had money, right?
Given time, the Chinese may be able to do it, it just takes time to settle. It seems that the business here still needs to be developed...

Comrades, here we come
