Chapter 816 Things Are Complicated Again
Wu Xiaozheng thought about it a lot, but never expected that this matter would have such a result.

Not only is this a hot potato, but it's a huge nuisance.

He was thinking right now, how should he explain this to the old man?

Why would Mr. Wu give himself the decision-making power?

You know, in the previous meeting, Wu Xiaozheng didn't mention his Hongmen identity at all. Even if he had an intersection with Mr. Wu, he only explained that it was because of He Shiyuan and Zhuang Ningwen.

But now it seems that his Hongmen identity cannot be concealed from the old man.

"Evin, your grandpa killed me."

Wu Xiaozheng couldn't help complaining to Zhuang Ningwen who was listening to the excitement.

"Haha, you asked for it yourself. Now let me see how you solve it."

Zhuang Ningwen actually showed a gloating expression.

Wu Xiaozheng shook his head helplessly.

Forget it, it's useless to complain about this matter, it's better to negotiate with the old man first.

Wu Xiaozheng called the old man.

"Is there news so soon?"

The old man thought that Wu Xiaozheng helped to be a lobbyist and achieved good results.

"Let's meet again."

After getting the old man's approval, he drove to the old man's office again.

After listening to Wu Xiaozheng's report, the old man's expression became very complicated.

"There's still something you haven't told me!"

As Wu Xiaozheng expected, when the old man heard that Wu Jiazhao had handed over the matter to Wu Xiaozheng, he immediately realized that something was abnormal.

"I joined Hongmen." Wu Xiaozheng said calmly.

Since this matter cannot be concealed, there is nothing to hide.

The old man's expression became strange again.

"Even if you join the Hongmen, Mr. Wu shouldn't treat this as a trifle, and leave it to you to make the decision."

"This is a hot potato, Mr. Wu doesn't want to deal with it at all."

"No, there should be other reasons."

Is there another reason?

Now even Wu Xiaozheng was puzzled.

What could be the reason?

"My ranking in Hongmen is not low, and I'm a member of Xingyi."

The old man stared at Wu Xiaozheng for a while, showed a strange expression again, and continued to ask: "What else?"

and also?

Could it be that there are other secrets in this matter?

Wu Xiaozheng thought about it, but he didn't want to understand the logic.

Could it be...

"I also met this year's mayoral candidate Giuliani in New York, and I did a little bit of small things."

As a last resort, he talked about Giuliani again.

This took a little time.

The old man's expression became even weirder.

"You can, you can really toss."

If the old man hadn't said this with a smile, he would have thought the old man was blaming himself.

"This should be the real reason. From my point of view, Mr. Wu is not simply throwing you a hot potato, but to test your ability, and to help you build momentum in Hongmen and expand your reputation in Hongmen." A sign of Hongmen's influence."

Wu Xiaozheng was a little confused at once.

"Isn't it? How can this matter be so complicated?"

The old man shook his head helplessly.

He originally thought that when this kid came to New York, he would be able to make a fuss if he could fight with the Chinese Merchants Association, but he didn't expect him to make a lot of troubles.

Joined Hongmen, became friends with the mayoral candidate of New York, and brought the mayoral candidate together with the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Hongmen...

How many people can do such a toss?

But this silly boy didn't know it, thinking that he just did an ordinary thing.

This made even the old man not know what to say about him.

"Do you understand the concept of a historic turning point?"

Wu Xiaozheng shook his head.

He knew that the old man's words could not be understood literally, but had a deeper meaning, and he was too lazy to think deeply, so he simply waited for the old man's explanation.

"If Giuliani is elected mayor of New York and fulfills his promise, it will be an opportunity to change the fate of Hongmen and Chinese people in New York. Mr. Wu summoned you because of this matter, which shows that he particularly values ​​it. This opportunity."

"And if this happens, then you will be the biggest contributor to Hongmen and a hero of the Chinese."

"And for Mr. Wu, he will regard you as the mainstay of the Hongmen in the future. You must know that when a person gets old, he will pay special attention to supporting the younger generation. Therefore, he is likely to regard this matter as a right again. Once you pass your test, he will take the opportunity to help you build momentum."

Wu Xiaozheng: "..."

I really didn't think so much!

However, after the old man's analysis, he felt that there was such a possibility.

Mr. Wu is not really training me as the backbone of Hongmen, is he?
But the problem is, I have no idea about that at all!
Wu Xiaozheng realized that things were complicated again.

And he was also surprised that the old man didn't express any opinion on his joining Hongmen.

"You don't object to me joining Hongmen?"

"Why should I object? You know, the Hongmen Zhigongtang has always been an important target of the country's united front. If you join, it will be a good thing for both public and private purposes."

Wu Xiaozheng suddenly felt that in the eyes of the old man, he seemed to have become an important pawn again.

A chess piece that can coordinate the relationship between the country and Hongmen well.

This made him very reluctant.

No one wants to be a pawn.

The old man said again: "However, it's better to keep this matter low-key. If it is not necessary, try not to reveal your Hongmen identity, and I will try to keep it a secret for you."

Wu Xiaozheng breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the old man still cares about himself and treats himself as his own junior.

This made him feel a lot more at ease.

"Then how should I deal with the Fifth Ancestor Temple?"

"You ask me who I ask?"

The old man's mood at this time is also very complicated.

From the perspective of the country, he certainly hoped that Wu Xiaozheng would understand the general situation and take into account the overall situation, and try not to raise conditions that would embarrass the government.

But from the perspective of caring for the younger generation, he hoped that Wu Xiaozheng could handle this matter properly so that everyone in the Hong family would be satisfied.

This is a contradiction.

"You can think about this for yourself. Once you think it through, call me and I'll help you make an appointment with the relevant person."

He simply put on a gesture of throwing his hands away, and started to push people away.

He was really in a dilemma about this.

For the sake of the country, Wu Xiaozheng's interests will be sacrificed, and his influence in Hongmen will be damaged.

Advising Wu Xiaozheng may cause difficulties for relevant departments.

Therefore, it is better to let Wu Xiaozheng do it himself.

Anyway, he is not usually able to toss.

Wu Xiaozheng reluctantly bid farewell and left.

He found that things really got complicated again.
