Volume 2 Commodity Society Chapter 245 The Great * Chaos
When Chen Feng came out of the Consulate General, it was almost five o'clock, and he finally declined the invitation of the Consul General's family to dinner, but at the request of the Consul General, it was the order of the ambassador to equip him with three heavily armed security guards to protect him until he returned to China.
For these three free bodyguards, although Chen Feng felt that they were a little in the way, he also knew that this was a piece of kindness from the other party. Moreover, these three bodyguards are armed, and if they really encounter a scene like the one at the airport today, their side will not be without the slightest ability to fight back.
Under the protection of these three bodyguards, they returned all the way back to the Four Seasons Hotel. Although Chen Feng and Hongye had only been separated for three or four hours, the two of them felt that a long time had passed.
Although Chen Feng is in danger this time, it can also be said that the reunion after the catastrophe, the two of them in the hotel room, they can't help but start to burn, deeply own each other, and the red leaves are a change from the previous passive situation, as if tirelessly taking the initiative, although in the end they were defeated, but it is commendable courage.
After the stirring, the two returned to reality, Chen Feng took out the phone and dialed Liu Hui's number, before he asked him to stay in the group of fans under the federal government building, so that he could report the situation there at any time.
Liu Hui's report really made Chen Feng very satisfied, in ** the demonstration continued for nearly an hour, the number of people has suddenly increased to nearly 50,000 people, this group of people directly besieged the federal government building, although the FBI has issued a public statement, has released Long, and promised to carry out a thorough investigation of this matter, and strictly deal with the responsible persons, but ** fans obviously do not believe the FBI's statement, in Liu Hui and a few other * hot fans driven,** The fans tried to storm the federal government building, and there were several physical confrontations with the police who maintained order at the scene, but no large-scale fights broke out, and the two sides still maintained a certain tacit understanding of reason, but as time went on, after the two sides confronted each other for nearly three hours, both sides gradually lost their patience*, and the FBI did not show up again after the statement was read by a representative before, which is equivalent to completely ignoring them as taxpayers** At this time, the masses participating in the ** event can only be described as a sea of people, and the preliminary estimate has reached nearly 100,000 people, and the police have also mobilized the city's police force as much as possible, nearly 5,000 people. This outbreak, the scene is really spectacular, although the police are fully armed, but after all, the number of people on both sides is disproportionate, the gate of the federal government building was broken by the surging angry crowd after holding on for more than ten minutes, long's fans are regardless of race and * good or bad, of course, many of them are thieves, robbers, hooligans, Villains, etc., led by this group of people, this federal government building, starting from the first floor, was destroyed and looted like a locust crossing in just half an hour.
This scene reminds people of Los Angeles nine years ago**, in 1992, after four white police officers accused of assaulting black people were found not guilty, and then a large-scale smashing, looting, and burning broke out in Los Angeles for five days, and the danger it caused was extremely alarming. More than 50 people were killed, 4,000 were injured, 12,500 people were arrested for their involvement, more than 600 homes were destroyed or damaged, and the total damage was more than $1 billion.
That horrific scene is still fresh in the memory of many people in Los Angeles, and even more so in the memory of the Los Angeles government. And this time, although the cause of the incident is different, there is one thing in common, that is, Long and the black man who was beaten by the police at the beginning are not white, and at the Grammys last night, everyone knew that Long was not white, but yellow. This time, the reason why the FBI people arrested Long for no reason may be mixed with racial discrimination, and many fans think so in their hearts.
At this time, the Los Angeles government had to declare a state of emergency in the whole city and ask the national army to intervene to maintain social order. At the same time, the municipal government is also actively contacting Jupiter Records, hoping that Long himself will hold a press conference as soon as possible to clarify the matter. But Jupiter Records didn't know what considerations, and deliberately delayed under the pretext that they couldn't contact Long himself, which made the Los Angeles City Government anxious, and finally when the chaos broke out, the mayor called Adams personally, and Adams was a little reluctant to contact Long as much as possible.
Fortunately, it is quite gratifying that this * chaos has been surrounding the federal government building, so it has not spread to other areas, but the city government does not think that this kind of optimistic situation can last long, and has repeatedly dispatched police forces to support this side, and blocked the entrances and exits of several nearby streets to strictly prohibit the further expansion of the situation.
Chen Feng learned this information from Liu Hui's mouth, and hurriedly turned on the TV in the room, and sure enough, the background of the picture on the TV was the Federal Government Building, and there was a large group of angry people, and the PK between the police and fans.
Looking at the hot scene on TV, Hongye couldn't help but say worriedly: "Xiao Feng, this is ...... It's terrible, you better come forward and clarify it, if you continue to make trouble like this, maybe you will die. ”
Chen Feng also felt that things had come to this point, and it was hot enough, and it was almost time for him to play.
"Well, I didn't expect this time to make such a big fuss, and if the dead are not good, I'll go to Jupiter Records right away. After Chen Feng finished speaking, he immediately got up from the bed and began to get dressed.
At this time, Chen Feng's mobile phone also rang, it was Adams's phone.
"Chen Feng, listen to those damn FBI people, you have been released by them, they didn't embarrass you, right?"
Of course, Chen Feng knew the purpose of Adams' call this time, and said directly: "I'm fine, you did a good job this time, it's really troublesome for you." I'm going to go to the company right now, and you're going to announce that I've been released by the FBI, and I'm going to hold a press conference, and I'm going to be there in person. Twenty minutes later, it starts right away. ”
"Good, good!" Adams agreed, "It's time for you to come out and announce that you've been released, and to tell those angry fans to calm down and put an end to this mess." ”
"Well, I don't want to see bloodshed. Go ahead and get ready. ”
Chen Feng hung up the phone after speaking. Hurriedly put on his clothes and said to Momiji, "You wait for me here." Don't worry, I'll come when I go. ”
Although Hongye didn't want to be separated from Chen Feng, he also knew that time was urgent, and it was not good to follow him, so he could only nod obediently.
After Chen Feng kissed the red leaves, he hurriedly went out.
The three armed bodyguards who had been guarding the door didn't ask much, and just followed. Luo Qiang, who stayed behind, Chen Feng asked him to continue to stay and defend the red leaves.
The three armed bodyguards are all bulletproof vests, each with a micro charge hanging on their shoulders, and the guns are each grabbed in their hands, and all three of them are very vigilant and entourage, one leads the way in front, and two guards left and right.
Sitting at the bottom of the bulletproof Mercedes-Benz that was also equipped for Chen Feng this time, the four of them hurried Jupiter Records as quickly as possible.
At this time, Adams, the president, gave an order, and the subordinates who had been prepared in advance all took action, making phone calls, arranging the venue, and everyone was actively busy with this very important press conference in person.
By the time Chen Feng arrived, the world's major media reporters had almost arrived, and obviously these news media were also prepared, just waiting for Jupiter to notify them, and the personnel were all there.
Chen Feng is still dressed at the Grammys last night, with an Armani casual suit and a Zorro suit. Opened by three armed bodyguards, he drove straight into Jupiter. Many people along the way screamed when they spotted him.
"Long!"
"Long, you're finally here, hurry up!" Adams was already waiting anxiously under the building, and when he saw Chen Feng coming, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and greeted him with joy, "I heard that the chaos over there in the Federal Government Building has begun to escalate, we must hurry." ”
Chen Feng didn't say much, and directly followed Adams to trot towards the venue of the press conference.
The reporters in the venue were also full of anxiety at this time, and it is unknown whether any of them cared more about the chaos itself or more about their own interview mission.
When they saw the long of the Zorro suit they were already familiar with running into the venue with Adams, they all got up from their seats excitedly, and the cameraman pointed the camera at them for the first time.
"Fellow journalists, because of time constraints, I won't be polite anymore. I, Long, I am here to make an urgent appeal to the fans at the Federal Government Building, and I, Long, want you to stop your irrational behavior immediately. I'm safe now, the FBI has released me, and as much as I resent their barbarism, I don't want to cause everyone to suffer because of me. I am very grateful to everyone for their concern for me, and I can only say that I am a little ashamed of your love for me, and I feel very excited and grateful at this time...... I just hope that everyone will not be harmed, that everyone can live together peacefully, and that there will be more peace and love in this world. Please stop acting irrationally and disperse from the federal government building to go home, and I also implore the Los Angeles police to be sensible and tolerant to my lovely group of fans, who are only trying to save me, and they are not at fault. If there is a mistake, it is also me, long, I am willing to take full responsibility for this incident and promise to compensate for the losses caused by this incident. In short, my dear fans and friends, when you see and hear my words, I have been released by the FBI, and I am safe, please stop what you do not understand, disperse from the federal government building, and go home, so that Los Angeles can return to good order, and let my anxiety be a little less. Thank you very much for your love for me! Thank you very much! Please journalists, please pass on what I said to the fans and friends at the Federal Government Building, so that this unfortunate incident can be calmed down as much as possible. Please!"
After Chen Feng finished a long impromptu speech, he hurriedly left the venue. But these reporters did not express any dissatisfaction with his behavior, but respected him from the bottom of their hearts, and many people were deeply moved by Chen Feng's words. They all agreed that Long, he was a very socially responsible, caring, and very kind person. They all took active action, recorded Chen Feng's words in their own various forms, and broadcast them as much as possible.
After Chen Feng left the press conference, he ran to the president's office with Adams and turned on the TV.
Chen Feng's speech was being recorded on television.
"Long, how could you just say that you are responsible for compensation. God, don't you know how much damage this chaos will cost Los Angeles? That's at least hundreds of millions of dollars, maybe billions, even billions. You don't make more than 100 million now, is your family very rich enough to compensate for so much economic loss?" Adams said with some complaint.
Chen Feng thought to himself, he was just talking casually on the spot, and when he couldn't do it, he would make an installment payment by himself, and donate part of the money he earned in the United States, which would improve his reputation and get a good reputation, anyway, the wool was out of the sheep, and he didn't feel distressed. Of course, he didn't confess this plan to Adam Stan, but said: "I really feel guilty about this * mess, I should have come forward earlier, but I was a guest at the Consulate General in Los Angeles before, and I didn't know anything about it." I didn't know until I got back to the hotel. If I had come forward sooner, I might not have been able to do it now. I originally wanted to go to the scene, but I was afraid that if I appeared, it would backfire, and those fans would not disperse. ”
Adams said with some disapproval: "Long, I don't blame you for this, it's all because of those damn FBI people, if they hadn't arrested you, there wouldn't be such a big thing today." And you're right, you can't go to such a dangerous place at this time, you go, and those crazy fans really don't necessarily disperse in time. ”
