My 1979

"Hey, hey, misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Statham was suddenly held up by a gun. He was so frightened that he lost his soul. He held his head high, leaned back, and raised his hands high. When he inadvertently glanced at Jiang Jianjian with his peripheral vision, , then shouted loudly, "Mr. Jiang, I don't mean anything else. I think this must be a misunderstanding."

The female secretary who came down with her was so frightened that she covered her mouth tightly, choked and did not dare to speak. She wanted to scream but did not dare.

Jiang Jianjian stepped forward and said, "Are you following us all the way?"

His face looks a little ugly.

"Mr. Jiang, can you put the gun away first?" Statham felt very uncomfortable.

"Put it away." Jiang Jianjian nodded towards the scarred face. Scarface put down the gun obediently. He was also a Belarusian and came to the United States with Ivanov. Naturally, he was no stranger to Jiang Jianxin.

"Huh." Statham let out a long breath of relief, put down his hands to straighten the hem of his clothes, and then said, "I just want to know where you live. You know, if Chairman Diesel asks and I don't know the situation, he will blame me. of."

"This is my business card. You can call me at any time. Stop being sneaky." After giving the business card to Li He, Jiang Jianjian went to Li He and said a few words.

Li He smiled and didn't care.

Wu Bo woke up on the third day. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a man sitting on the edge of the bed, picking his feet and raising his nose from time to time.

"Xiao Lizi, what are you doing?"

"Hey, are you awake?" Li He quickly put on his slippers and put his hand on his forehead to test his temperature.

"Hey, stay away from me." Wu Bo had just woken up and had no strength, but his mind was clear and he had to shout with all his strength.

"What's wrong, is this?" Li He's hand was less than a few centimeters away from him and could only stay there.

"Did you wash your hands?"

"Bah!" Li He stood up and said, "You don't even smell yourself. You've been lying in bed for five or six days without taking a shower, and you smell so bad. You have the nerve to dislike me, and you're like no one else."

"It's true." Wu Bo tilted his neck and sniffed around his shoulders, and tried to stand up. Li He just wanted to go over and help him, but he pushed him away in disgust, "Comrade Li He, keep your distance from me. .”

"Lie down for a while. I'll get you some food. Once you've eaten enough, you'll be strong." Li He was helpless.

"Please give me a glass of water."

"Doesn't this mean I'm dirty?"

Li He handed him a glass of water, and he drank it down.

"Why are you here?" Wu Bo put the cup on the bedside table, used his elbows as support, and moved his body hard to the wall.

"I'm not worried about you, don't look at me with such grateful eyes." Li He looked at the way he was hesitant to speak, and knew what he wanted to ask, so he just said, "Zhao Qing calls several times a day, and he is also a You prodigal woman, I don’t know how expensive this international long distance is, I feel sorry for her. It’s not easy for her to come here, otherwise she would have come a long time ago.”

"Thank you." Wu Bo smiled bitterly, "I owe you so much, I'm thinking about how to repay you."

"Repay? How to return it? If you are a flower girl and you can give me your life, what do I want from you, a big man?" Li He lit a cigarette and stuffed it into Wu Bo's mouth, "Come, welcome Returning to hell on earth means early death and early reincarnation.”

Wu Bo held the cigarette and took a puff, then coughed heavily, and it took him a long time to regain his composure.

"Finally alive."

Li He joked, "Yes, the cough is very powerful, and he can live for decades."

Wu Bo hesitated for a moment, then said, "Please give her a call again, so that she won't have to worry."

"Chinese." Li He opened the door, said a few words to Dong Hao outside, and then retracted his neck into the ward.

"Thanks."

"If I hear these two words again, I will curse them." Li He pretended to be unhappy, and then asked, "What's going on with you? I haven't seen you for a few days and you eat peanuts? They also confiscated it from you. Bullet fee.”

Wu Bo looked at the smoke ring, and when it was all gone, he took a heavy puff, blew out another smoke ring, and said, "One night, I ran out of cigarettes in my pocket, so I wanted to come down and buy a pack of cigarettes. The rich area of ​​Brooklyn Public security has always been very good, and there are police cars patrolling. I didn't ask anyone to accompany me, so I came down by myself. When I came out of the store after buying cigarettes, I was pulled to the entrance of the alley by a man. He was pulled out for several meters. I was about to struggle. He was held back by the gun, and he didn't dare to move anymore, so he gave him all the US dollars in his pocket."

"Then why did I shoot at you?" The first purpose of robbery is to obtain money. Violence is only a means. Under normal circumstances, people will not shoot indiscriminately, unless the robber is gay and wants to rob someone. Thinking of this, Li He couldn't help but ignite a raging fire of gossip, "He wants to attack by force, but you will refuse to obey?"

"What are you thinking about?" Wu Bo was very angry when Li He said it, and said, "He wanted my watch, but I didn't give it to him. When the two of them started fighting for it, he shot me."

He looked at his empty wrists and sighed heavily.

"Your broken watch is worthless, just give it to him." Wu Bo always wore a Seagull watch worth tens of dollars. The robber's vision was really bad at night.

"What do you know? Zhao Qing gave it to me."

"Oh." Li He showed a clear expression, but he felt that Wu Bo was still a bit too rigid. Although love is more expensive, life cannot be thrown away casually. "Don't worry, the robber will definitely be found. I have already If Ivanov is looking for him, he must be a habitual criminal. As long as he is still around, he will not be able to escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, two policemen came in and made a brief note for Wu Bo.

At noon, Li He ordered a bunch of hard dishes from the Chinese restaurant. Wu Bo's appetite was still limited and he only tasted a little meat porridge.

The two were still chatting when Jiang Jianjian poked his head in from the outside and said, "Boss Wu, there is a girl outside to visit you."

"Girl?"

Wu Bo was wondering when he saw Jiang Jianjian step aside and then a girl in a bright yellow and elegant long dress came in.

"Wu Bo, are you feeling better?" The girl's dark hair fell like a waterfall on the side, and her plain and elegant face was originally smiling lightly, but the moment she saw Li He, her almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened, and her eyes were still reflecting consternation.

Not to mention her, Li He was a little stunned and just lamented that the world is too small.

And it is true that she is a female major. Although she was slim and very beautiful back then, she definitely did not have the feeling of spring water flowing like this now.

"Classmate Wang Yu, long time no see."

It was he who broke the deadlock first.

"Are you Li Erhe?" Wang Yu was still a little unsure. More than ten years passed in the blink of an eye, suddenly like a dream. She really couldn't believe that the man in front of her, wearing big pants and slippers, with short hair, was the same Li He whose face was full of pimples and acne.

"Haha, it's true." Li He moved a chair for her, "Please sit down, you are getting more and more beautiful."

"Thank you. You have changed quite a lot." Wang Yu did not sit down, but put the fruit in his hand on the table and looked at Li He with a smile.

"You two know each other?" Wu Bo was confused beside him. He only met Wang Yu after he came to the United States because Zhao Qing often asked him to bring things to Wang Yu from China.

"Classmate Wang Yu is from the National People's Congress. We have known each other since we were students. We are still fellow villagers, but we are just one year older than us." Li He asked uncertainly, "You came to the United States in the 1980s, right?"

Wang Yu nodded, "Yes, your memory is pretty good."

Wu Bo said, "I have never seen her in China."

"Yeah." Li He asked again, "Is it okay in the United States?"

"Very good, married?"

"Yes." Li He nodded with a smile, and then gestured, "The eldest son is already so tall."

"Ha, I finally learned how to serve cabbage."

"Hey, what are you talking about?"

After laughing, the two of them fell into silence.

"Wang Yu, I heard you were promoted?" Wu Bo saw that the atmosphere was a bit dull and began to break the deadlock.

"Yes." Wang Yu's eyes changed when he mentioned his job.

"Congratulations on making it through." Wu Bo sincerely congratulated him. Most banks' promotion systems are similar. Going from analyst to associate to VP is very difficult, let alone a woman.

Women have never had much status on Wall Street.

"It's okay, I can't compare with you." Wang Yu knew in her heart that she couldn't compare with Wu Bo. Even though she was promoted now, it would only be a few hundred thousand dollars a year at best. She walked in and looked at a large number of bodyguards and people in the corridor. The employees felt that Wu Bo was really mad.

She occasionally envied Zhao Qing, who always had someone to rely on and someone to rely on.

However, even though she can't compare with Wu Pop, her income is enough to stand out among the others. I can't say what she can do in the United States. At least she can kill 99% of the domestic people in an instant. She still has this confidence.

"Congratulations." Li He, who had been unable to find a topic, also interjected.

"How about you, what are you doing in the United States?" Wang Yu also asked about Li He's situation.

Li He pointed at Wu Bo, "I came all the way here, not because of him, but he scared everyone so much. I just do some business and make do with it."

"It's better than floating like me anyway."

"Have you never been back to your hometown?"

Wang Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile, "No, I miss my parents very much, but it's always inconvenient and I don't have so much time. I thought about it, I will go back when I save enough money, which can be considered a return to my hometown in glory."

"I have time to go back to my hometown to visit. Our province has changed a lot in the past two years." Li He looked at the time and said, "I'll treat you to a meal tonight. It's not easy for everyone to meet here."

"Okay, let me treat you." Wang Yu said, "It's not easy for you to come from China. Let me take you to have a good look."

"Suggest a place and let's go eat together tonight." As for who was treating the guests, Li He didn't bother anymore. It was estimated that neither of them had a chance to pay, so naturally there were people under him to help pay the bill.

Wu Bo interjected, "Let me tell you, you two should go out and discuss it quickly. I can't go, so I'll take a rest first."

His chest still hurt occasionally.

Li He opened the door to the ward and raised his hand like a gentleman, "Please, Miss Wang."

"Thank you." Wang Yu politely left the ward first.

Just after leaving the hospital gate, Li He lit up a cigarette, and she also lit up a ladies' cigarette. Li He asked curiously, "When did you also smoke?"

Wang Yu said calmly, "When I'm stressed, I'm used to smoking one or two."

"Girls should smoke less." Li He also had good intentions, or he was thinking of a way to answer the question, "Have you thought about where to eat?"

Wang Yu looked at Li He up and down, "Let's change clothes."

This outfit can only be used in Chinese restaurants and fast food restaurants.

"It's okay, just tell me the place." Li He didn't like the trouble. In the United States, Ivanov and Bavla were there to look after him, so wherever he followed him, he could go without any hindrance, not to mention in China.

Wang Yu suddenly turned to him, "Have you ever thought about staying here? Not to mention, you can earn 30,000 to 40,000 U.S. dollars a year, which is about 200,000 U.S. dollars in RMB. If you think about it, it will last a lifetime in China. You can’t even earn it.”

"You want my cat to be a shady here?" Li He was surprised. He didn't expect Wang Yu to mention this.

"It's so ugly to say that you are a gangster and not a gangster. This is for your future and an opportunity to change your destiny. How much can you earn in China, let alone doing business or not? To be honest, my parents have been doing revolutionary work all their lives. Even though they save money, I have been living frugally, and my savings so far have not exceeded 20,000 yuan. Once my brother gets married, the family will be completely ruined. Think about it, if you can stay here and your academic qualifications are not bad, you can work while doing other things. If you go to school and stay for a few years, you may get a green card. You are still young, are you afraid that you will not have the chance?"

Li He laughed dumbly, "No, my wife and children are already a big family. How can I go through such trouble? I still have to go back and live my little life."

"Why are you so stubborn?" Wang Yu said angrily, "Think about it, when your conditions are better, you can take them over. Tell me sincerely, is it easy for you to come to the United States? That visa is not easy to apply for. I heard from those new arrivals that there are still queues at the door of the US Embassy all day and night. How many people are squeezing their heads to get in. Are you willing to go back like this? In the United States, as long as you are willing Come on, there's gold everywhere. Besides, let me say something I shouldn't say, Wu Bo and you are classmates, and having him help you here is better than anything else."

"Willingly." Li He answered without hesitation, but he felt that Wang Yu might have misunderstood something.

"That's my car. Did you see it? I just bought it. It cost me more than 30,000 US dollars. It would cost at least more than 200,000 yuan in China. Do you think you can afford it in China? Can you give it a little bit? Pursuing?" Wang Yu followed the temptation. When she was about to continue talking, a Mercedes-Benz parked next to her car. The person getting out of the car made her a little unbelievable. She hurriedly said to Li He, "I met If you meet a colleague, please wait for me for a while and I will come right away."

Statham, who got off the Mercedes-Benz, just saw Li He leaning on the porch pillar and smoking. He was about to wave to him, but was interrupted by an Asian-faced girl who rushed over.

"Mr. Statham, do you still remember me?" Wang Yu stepped forward and shook hands with Statham enthusiastically, "I am Inka Wang from the Bond Yield Department of Barclays Bank. I just called you a few days ago. Do you still remember? ?"

"Inka? I remember. I'm glad to see you here." Although the beauty was in front of him, Statham's eyes were always fixed on Li He, for fear that he would disappear if he didn't pay attention. He came here with a heavy responsibility.

"Yes, Mr. Statham, regarding the 5 million Arizona Saltwater River Engineering Bonds with a coupon rate of 5% and a maturity date of 2035, our buyer bid a yield of 4.55% and the customer's seller quoted a yield of 4.50%. Neither party gave up the price. ." Wang Yu saw that Statham looked anxious. He was obviously busy with something, so she had to speak out the key points in a hurry.

Her job is mainly to issue new bonds in the primary market and facilitate secondary market transactions, while Statham is mainly responsible for Barclays Bank's spot bonds, all of which are proprietary transactions. She deals with major Wall Street investment banks and small banks like her. .

"Sorry, sorry, I think we can talk about this later." Statham saw Jiang Jianjian's car parked in front of Li He, obviously going out.

He ignored Wang Yu's response and passed her directly.

Wang Yu couldn't believe it. Following his back, he saw him nodding and bowing to Li He. The dignified director of Barclays was actually a little shy and reserved.

She rubbed her eyes, feeling a little dazed.

"Hello, Mr. Li."

"Is something wrong?" Li He felt that this guy was a bit haunted and could see him everywhere.

"Chairman Diesel has extended a sincere invitation to you to have dinner with him at his manor."

Wang Yu, who slowly walked towards Li He, wondered if he heard wrongly?

What international joke are you kidding?

Diesel, the most famous banker on Wall Street, wants to invite Li He?

She felt like she was hallucinating.

Yes, it must be an illusion.

Who knew that Li He pointed at Wang Yu with a smile and said, "Sorry, I have promised this lady to have dinner together, so I can only accept Diesel's kindness."

Statham looked at Wang Yu and asked doubtfully, "I wonder who you and Ms. Inka are?"

"We are friends." Li He replied firmly, "So I'm sorry."

He was not in the mood to have dinner with an old man and talk nonsense.

Statham hurriedly added, "Mr. Li, of course, when you have enough time, the time is up to you."

Wang Yu, who was on the side, was a little doubtful about life. She heard it right. Such humble words came from a director of Barclays.

Li He asked Wang Yu next to him, "What do you want from this guy? If you need help, just ask."

"Hey, this guy is in charge of the bonds of Barclays Bank, so naturally he has to deal with him." Wang Yu said it casually, since foreign devils can't understand Chinese anyway.

Statham looked confused.

"Let's go and have dinner together." Li He extended an invitation to Statham.

"What an honor." Statham was ecstatic, without any hesitation.

Seeing that Wang Yu was about to drive his car, Li He said directly, "Give me the key."

Before she could react, she snatched the key and threw it to the bodyguard behind her.

"How about going there?"

Li He pointed to the Rolls-Royce Phantom that had opened the door, "Sit here."

Wang Yu got into the car in a daze, feeling that everything was a bit unreal.

"Li Erhe, what are you doing now?"

Li He leaned back on the chair, stretched his arms, and said, "Just doing some business."

"It's not a small business, right?" Wang Yu felt that it was ridiculous for him to persuade Li He to stay in the United States just now.

"It's not bad. Anyway, I've made some money in the past two years." Li He didn't know how to explain it. He was afraid of scaring Wang Yu, so he just changed the topic, "Let's go eat Chinese food. You are familiar with this place. You say It’s delicious somewhere.”

"Let's go to Chinatown. There's a Hunan restaurant there. It's delicious. I'll go there when I have time." Wang Yu didn't ask Li He for details. She was still embarrassed to ask.

There weren't many people in the restaurant, probably it wasn't dinner time yet, so they came a little early.

But the restaurant didn't mind them being early, and enthusiastically made them tea and gave them menus.

"You can order whatever you want to eat." Li He handed the menu to Wang Yu.

"Mr. Statham, take a look and order." Wang Yu gave Statham the menu instead.

"No, no, ladies first." Statham was very humble, and he still had this bit of discernment.

"You don't have to get used to this guy." Li He originally disliked this guy as an eyesore.

Wang Yu said helplessly, "I know you like to eat meat. The fried bacon with dried bamboo shoots here is very authentic."

She ordered five or six dishes in one go, and by the time she finished ordering, Jiang Jianjian and others at the other table had already eaten.

The food on Li He's table was served very quickly, and all he wanted was beer.

"The taste of this restaurant is quite good. I have decided that as long as I am in New York, I will stick to this restaurant." Li He has been changing Chinese restaurants one by one in the past few days, but none of them suits his taste.

Wang Yu pinched the chicken buttocks to him and said, "This is for you."

Statham probably understood the close relationship between Wang Yu and Li He, and after drinking three glasses of wine, he took the initiative to talk to her about the bond.

Wang Yu was naturally happy. She thought that it took no effort to get it. It is normal for a deal like this to be negotiated for three to five months.

Li He gave Statham a knowing look.

Before the meal was over, Statham's secretary, a blonde girl, had already bought the order first.

Li He said to Wang Yu, "Look, I saved another meal."

"You are so stingy, I will treat you tomorrow." Although Wang Yu had a smile on her face, only she knew how she felt in her heart.

However, she still knew nothing about Li He's so-called small business.

She could only feel from Statham's attitude and Li He's pomp that what Li He was doing was definitely not a small business.

"I'll take you back." After dinner, Li He drove Statham away and offered to take Wang Yu off.

"Thank you." Wang Yu drank the wine and felt her cheeks burning.

The two of them were silent all the way. It was very close to the place where she rented a house, only a ten-minute drive away.

"Do you live here?" After getting off the car, Li He looked around at the new-style community and felt that the location was quite good.

"Well, we just moved here." Wang Yu invited, "Would you like to come up and sit down? I'll make you some tea."

"No need." Li He touched his pocket and found nothing. He climbed into the car again, took out a paper and pen, wrote a series of numbers in a flash, and then handed it to her, "If you have any problems, call me. "

Wang Yu stood on the side of the road and watched his retreating figure until he got into the car and the car disappeared between the buildings, feeling sour in his heart.

She didn't even know what she had lost, and she felt a little lost. She went upstairs feebly, opened the door, flicked her high heels casually, and stood by the window, staring at the endless flow of traffic.
