Hello 1983

  Chapter 823 Heaven and earth have righteousness!

  At 9:00 a.m., all those participating in the hearing entered the government hall.

  On the rostrum, the chairman presiding over the hearing has already taken his seat, and the members of the hearing committee sit on both sides.

   There are more than 200 people sitting below, all of whom are participating in the hearing.

  Part of it is from Liu Qingshan's side, and the other part is from the National Security Bureau.

  The largest group is the representatives and witnesses invited to attend the hearing. There are ordinary people and representatives of all walks of life, men and women, and they almost brought their children.

   It was the first time for Liu Qingshan to participate in this kind of hearing, and he was surprised to find that there was a video camera next to him, which was broadcasting live.

   "It seems that this hearing has attracted a lot of attention."

  Liu Qingshan asked Xiao Li next to him, and the latter replied with a smile: "Every hearing will be made public to the media and the public through radio, television or announcements."

  Oh, it turned out that Liu Qingshan was thinking too much.

  In fact, in general hearings, that is, after the public votes, the announcement is finished.

  Although this hearing was not at the level discussed in the previous Congress, it did receive widespread attention from the society because of its particularity, so it was broadcast live.

  The chairman who presided over the hearing was a deputy mayor of Los Angeles. He checked the time and announced the start of the hearing.

   First of all, of course, introduce the hearing committee members present, most of them are senators. Liu Qingshan was surprised to find that there was a familiar figure among them.

  Mr. Mike, a senior member of parliament, his wife had dystocia, and the dumb grandfather once gave her anesthesia with needles, and then performed a caesarean section.

  Liu Qingshan also accompanied Master to visit Councilor Mike's house.

  Although it was a bit unexpected, Liu Qingshan's eyes just swept past Representative Mike's face, and nothing else was revealed.

  Liu Qingshan seemed to be aware that Councilor Mike nodded slightly to him.

   Wait until the introductions on and off the stage have been completed before taking the oath.

  Liu Qingshan is not from this country, so he did not take the oath and asked Adrian to represent him.

  Subsequently, the hearing officially began.

  At the beginning, Mr. Chairman made a statement, including the theme and significance of this hearing.

   This also means that Liu Qingshan seems to have returned to the domestic venue and listened to the leader's speech, which is a bit drowsy.

   "Let's invite the witness Liu Qingshan to express his views." Finally, Liu Qingshan's name was called.

  Liu Qingshan stood up, walked to the speaking seat, and then took out his own speech.

  Although he didn’t need to read it from the manuscript, he had to hand in all the supporting materials at the end, so he prepared them.

  Liu Qingshan nodded first: "Mr. Chairman, members and guests, good morning everyone."

   "First of all, let me introduce myself. I am Liu Qingshan from China, and I am an entrepreneur by profession."

   "On this continent, there are several companies such as Wang An Computer, Earth Network, and Hurricane Audio-Visual, which have solved the employment problem of more than 20,000 people and paid more than 41 million US dollars in federal taxes every year."

  This issue is very important. In the United States, one is employment and the other is taxation, which are issues that both the people and the government attach great importance to.

   If you can do these two things well, you are a successful businessman and loved by others.

  The audience in the audience couldn't help but let out a low exclamation: it can solve the employment of more than 20,000 people, which is incredible.

  If such a company goes bankrupt, the unemployment rate of the entire country will have to increase by a few tenths of a percentage point.

   There are more than a dozen representatives from the NSA, and Mr. Manaman is in charge.

  Hearing Liu Qingshan's introduction, the wrinkles on Manaman's face, who had already been involved in a lawsuit, became more dense. He raised his hand to signal:

   "Mr. Chairman, today we are conducting a hearing on the security of the Earth Network. Companies like Wang An Computer have nothing to do with this, so I object to what Mr. Liu Qingshan said just now."

   "According to what we know, Earth Net now only has more than 300 employees."

  Mr. Chairman is in his fifties, slightly fat, and wearing reading glasses. He nodded: "The objection is valid, Mr. Liu, please don't involve irrelevant topics."

   Manaman sat down again. Although he could not completely control the hearing, he believed that anyone would give the NSA some face.

  Don’t think that the NSA really “doesn’t have this bureau” as the public ridicules. Once the NSA gets angry, it’s easy to bankrupt you.

   Regarding the warning from the chairman, Liu Qingshan also nodded to express his understanding, and then continued to state:

   "Global Network is the first portal website in the world, and now has more than one million users. It is currently the largest in North America and the largest portal website in the world. It has a bright future and a bright future."

   "Such a website is the benchmark and example of Internet companies. If it is killed, it will be a huge loss."

   "Even a crime!"

  Liu Qingshan's incomparably determined eyes swept across the chairman and the hearing committee members, and finally fell on the representatives of the Security Bureau headed by Manaman.

  Seeing that Manaman's gaze was a little dodged, he was secretly annoyed: In this department, he had never seen any vicious people, but why did he feel guilty today?

  He is not familiar with Chinese literature, and of course he doesn't know the meaning of "being righteous".

  At this moment, Liu Qingshan burst out with a sense of grandeur, and anyone with a dark heart would tremble under his gaze.

   There is righteousness in the world!

   I don't know who took the lead, but there was applause from the audience, and it intensified.

   This is very rare in the hearing, and it is not allowed.

  Mr. Chairman immediately spoke up and asked everyone to keep quiet. Liu Qingshan then continued: "It may be because of my sensitive identity that the Earth Network is now being questioned by the NSA."

   "But I want to say that the Earth Network is not my own. I have never been involved in the operation and content of the website. The employees can testify to this."

   "And more than 90% of the employees of the Earth Network are citizens of the United States. May I ask, are you worried about me, or the citizens of your own country?"

  These words were sharp enough. Manaman wanted to refute, but he had nothing to say. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have received a not-so-good job.

   This embarrassing scene was also spread to thousands of households through TV.

   "The idiot!"

  The top executives of the NSA were also watching the live broadcast in the office, and couldn't help but curse.

  Mr. Chairman knocked on the microphone: "Mr. Liu Qingshan, this is not a debate, please continue your statement."

  Liu Qingshan also looked at the other party with some discomfort, and then continued to express his point of view:

  "Internet technology is developing rapidly. In the near future, the Internet will enter every country and every family."

   "Connecting people from different countries together, the future will be an era of Internet of Everything."

  "Our earth will no longer have geographical gaps, but will become a whole. This is the future I envision, let's call it a global village."

   "At that time, there will be tens of thousands of websites like Earth Web for users to choose from. At that time, will there still be so-called security issues?"

  In Liu Qingshan’s statement, he described the future trend of Internet development, and everyone was a little dumbfounded: Will there really be such a day?

  Finally, Liu Qingshan made a summary statement: "So I think that the NSA's groundless doubts about the Earth Network are just groundless worries."

   "If these uncles really have enough to eat and have nothing to do, I suggest that they go surfing the Earth Web. Our Earth Web will treat every user equally."

  Liu Qingshan is really blunt, and he dared to say that Manaman and others were all overwhelmed with red faces and teeth itching with hatred.

  They knew in their hearts that if the other party dared to go to court with the NSA, they were really not afraid of them.

  Even if you are on the blacklist of the NSA, you will be deported at worst. They do not belong to this country, so they can still live a chic life without you.

   On the contrary, if their NSA really hacked the Earth Network for no reason, I am afraid that they will face doubts and accusations from the public.

   After all, there are so many users on the Earth Network, there is no place to play, so it's no wonder people don't scold you.

  Manaman finally realized at this time: the young man opposite was not a soft persimmon, but a prickly ball.

  The atmosphere at the scene was also guided by Liu Qingshan. Many people thought that the NSA must be full of food, or it must be a pain in the ass.

  After Liu Qingshan finished his presentation, the next session was time for committee members and representatives to ask questions.

   This link is also the most difficult to control, because the questions raised by some committee members are very tricky, enough to guide public opinion.

   "Mr. Liu Qingshan, I would like to ask, what political party do you belong to in your own country?"

  The first questioner came up and asked an extremely sharp question.

   This person obviously has a detailed understanding of Liu Qingshan's information and knows that he is a party member.

  Its intentions can be described as very vicious, no matter how generous those politicians and people are, they would not call such a person in charge of a portal like Earth Net.

  Because Lao Mei is good at using this method, usually they use the media they control to fool others.

  The most typical example, isn't the Soviet Union just limped by them?

   Think about the most important Internet portal in your own country, what if you also carry out similar publicity?

  This result was simply unbearable. This was also the fatal wound on Liu Qingshan's body, and he was caught immediately.

  But Liu Qingshan couldn't deny this problem, he had to face it head-on. When he was still in high school, Liu Qingshan wrote the application under the care of the bearded principal.

  He replied calmly, without hiding anything. Sure enough, the crowd present had a little commotion, which proved their worries.

  If they were more inclined to the earth network just now, then this problem now makes the balance in their hearts tilt to the other side.

  Of course, Liu Qingshan also noticed this change, and secretly scolded the member who asked the question for being vicious, but he still said calmly:

   "Let me reiterate that I will not participate in the management of Earth Network, including the collection and production of news, etc., which are the specific responsibility of the employees."

  Manaman finally found a chance to fight back, and immediately sneered: "Hehe, it doesn't mean that we will not allow such hidden dangers in the future, because our NSA is to protect the security of the country!"

   This guy finally regained his victory, and he couldn't help but feel elated. He was crushed a bit miserably by Liu Qingshan just now.

  This problem is also Liu Qingshan's deadlock, because the Earth Network has always stuck his label, and his identity is destined to be temporarily unable to change.

  Although he was angry in his heart, Liu Qingshan still looked calm: "My personal beliefs cannot represent the Earth Network, so please don't confuse them."

   "But we will absolutely not let this hidden danger exist." Manaman also refused to budge.

   "Then if I am a citizen of the United States, will this problem still exist?" Liu Qingshan asked coldly.

   "Of course not." Manaman replied triumphantly, he didn't need to think about this question at all.

   "Mr. Manaman, if this was a court, I would sue you for discrimination." Liu Qingshan stared at Manaman with sharp eyes.

  Even a ruthless character like Manaman couldn't help feeling chills in his heart. He took the initiative to avoid Liu Qingshan's gaze, and shrugged his shoulders pretending to be relaxed:

   "But this is not a courtroom."

  Liu Qingshan continued to ask: "If I am an islander, will I be treated in the same way?"

   "NO, that's definitely not the case. As long as it's not a hostile camp, they are all our friends, and we will all welcome them."

   Manaman was complacent, playing double standards so blatantly.

   Yes, he could, and no one would question him.

  Liu Qingshan shook his head slightly, and then said a shocking sentence: "Well, I have already applied for immigration to the Liland government in Africa, and it is currently being processed."

  He dared to announce this matter in public, of course he had obtained the consent of relevant parties.

"what?"

  Manaman wondered if there was something wrong with his ears. How could such a ridiculous thing happen? Any normal person would not carry out this kind of immigration.

  He faintly felt that he was being led step by step into a designed trap by his opponent.

   This time it was Liu Qingshan's turn to fight back: "That's right, my company has a lot of business in Lilan, so in order to facilitate the management of things there, I proposed to emigrate."

   "As far as I know, there is no conflict between Liland and your country, so Mr. Chairman, is there still a need to continue this hearing?"

  Even the chairman and the committee members looked at each other in blank dismay. This incident shocked them as well, and they seemed a little at a loss.

  At this time, Councilor Mike suddenly asked to speak, and after getting permission, Councilor Mike stood up:

   "Mr. Liu, I want to make sure, is this your procrastination, or is there really such a thing?"

  Liu Qingshan nodded: "I have already submitted a formal application, so this matter is absolutely true. My investment in Lilan has already exceeded 100 million. I think they will definitely agree to my application."

   Such an investment, let alone a poor country in Africa, even any country in the world, probably has no reason to reject it, and will welcome it with raised hands.

   "Then I have no problem." Councilor Mike nodded, and then sat back.

  Mr. Chairman had an urgent consultation with the committee members, and then announced the end of the hearing. It seemed a bit anticlimactic, and many witnesses have yet to express their views.

  However, on the follow-up materials, those who should sign still have to sign, and then hand over the materials of the hearing to the superior for the final collegiate discussion.

   Judging from the current results, it seems that it has no impact on the Earth Network.

   This is also called Manaman et al., a little annoyed.

  Liu Qingshan was not complacent because of this result, he walked up to Manaman and the others, and extended his hand politely:

   "Everyone, see you in court next time."

   "You!" Manaman was anxious and angry, and blurted out his doubts in his heart: "The problem has been solved, do you still want to continue the lawsuit?"

  Liu Qingshan nodded solemnly: "That's right, this hearing is for the Earth Network, and the lawsuit is for myself."

   "I want to tell you people with facts, no one can trample on the dignity of others at will!"
