Chapter 406: The Overseas Chinese Affairs Office

Mu Yang's impression of Houston is probably only one Houston Rockets and Houston Rockets Center.n∈,

Houston is the largest city in the southern United States, the largest oil industry center and the third largest port in the country. It is located on the northwest coast of Galveston Bay on the plains of the northwest coast of Galveston Bay, and is connected to the Gulf of Mexico through an 80-kilometer-long sea canal.

As for the Houston Rocket Center that Mu Yang knew, it is located on the shore of Lake Clear 35 kilometers southeast. It is one of the largest space research and development centers of NASA, so Houston is also known as the "City of the Universe".

The car entered the city and came to the embassy. Mu Yang finally met his immediate boss, Cui Mingxue, Consul General of the Houston Consulate General.

In fact, the Consul General can also be called a director or embassy, ​​and their rank is equivalent to that of a counselor of the Embassy in the United States.

Director Cui is about the early forties and has a slightly wider face, but it gives people a generous feeling. Director Cui is very kind and shakes hands with Mu Yang and Guo Zeyu, and then asks about their situation along the way.

Of course, Director Cui would not tell them about the specific matter arrangements, so naturally there will be arrangements for the department manager below.

The Consulate General has an office, a new political group, a leadership group, a cultural group, a science and technology group, a business office, and an education group. It is responsible for affairs in eight states including Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida and other places, and Puerto Rico.

The entire Houston Consulate General has 27 diplomats and three other military officers.

There are guards in the Embassy in the United States, and even guards stationed in war-torn areas or national special forces soldiers. However, there are no guards in the Houston Consulate General.

Guo Zeyu was assigned to the education group, while Muyang was assigned to the overseas Chinese group.

Speaking of the Overseas Chinese Group, it should be regarded as the busiest department of the entire consulate general, mainly to safeguard the safety and legitimate rights and interests of overseas Chinese and Chinese tourists. To deal with some emergencies, etc., sometimes it also has to communicate and coordinate with the local judicial departments.

There are four people in the entire overseas Chinese team, four drivers and three assistants. These assistants are not formal diplomats. They have no right to handle diplomatic affairs themselves, but only help the diplomats' work.

According to the requirements, the overseas Chinese team was required to be on duty 24 hours a day, so the four people were divided into two groups. The team led by Mu Yang was Qian Chang. He is 32 years old and the San Secret. He has been in the United States for two years and has been working in the overseas Chinese team and has rich work experience.

"Minister Qian, I am a newcomer. I don't understand many things. I will ask you to help you more in the future." Mu Yang said sincerely.

"Xiao Mu, we can't help each other in the future. However, the most important thing in diplomatic affairs is to not be impulsive. We must implement it in accordance with various diplomatic regulations. You are still young. You may not be able to see some things when handling them, but this is diplomatic work. We must be polite, well-founded and concise, and make our efforts. But some things are not something we can control. There are cultural differences and racial differences in this. Of course, there are also the United States' despise of China, but we still have to put the overall situation first, so diplomats are not that easy to do."

Qian Chang looks tall and tall, but he speaks very old-fashionedly. Mu Yang knows that the current foreign policy is to seek stability, and diplomatic work also requires diplomats to be stable and not impulsive. Mu Yang understands these.

Is this tradition? This is the result of education, or the consistent style of the country to the outside world? Sometimes, a country also has its own style. For example, the style of behavior given by the United States is hegemony, Russia is rough and desperate, while China is compromised, or repeatedly compromised for the sake of stable development and future considerations.

Forget it, don’t think about these things for now. I am just a low-level diplomatic staff member and it is not time for me to express my thoughts and opinions.

After arranging the dormitory, Mu Yang was officially admitted.

At three o'clock in the morning, around 16 o'clock in the capital, Mu Yang called his home and told his father about his situation, so that they could rest assured that they would take good care of themselves. Then he was from his uncle and aunt, and finally called Xu Youshan.

"Honey, don't call so late. You will have a bad rest. You can call me during the day in the United States. I'll be fine if I go to bed late." Xu Youshan said with heartache.

"It's okay, this small problem can't help me. You are busy with your studies and the translation department, and you have to take care of your family. You are even more busy than me." Mu Yang said.

The young couple said sweetly and did not put down the phone until four o'clock in the morning. Mu Yang was indeed a little sleepy.

If you really don’t sleep all night, no one can stand it after a long time. However, Muyang has many missions to go to. Isn’t it even more of a pleasure to go to Mallorca in the Mediterranean and sleep in the sun? Maybe you go to Malmo Manor and hold Xia Kejun’s delicate body.

So Mu Yang doesn't have to worry about lack of sleep at all.

"We two go out today, and there are some things to deal with." Qian Chang walked into the office and said to Mu Yang.

Mu Yang stood up and picked up his stuff, followed him and asked casually: "What's the matter?"

"When the police in Houston checked the vehicle yesterday, they injured a tourist from China. The tourist called us for help, hoping to get help from the embassy. Let's go over and take a look." As the two of them said, they walked to the car and the driver drove into the car to the hospital.

Qian Chang and Mu Yang came to the Texas Medical Center in Houston and met Liu Xu, a Chinese tourist who asked for help and his girlfriend Chen Ling.

Liu Xu leaned against the bed, and there were several obvious scratches on his face, but it was not too serious. He had a little drip on his hands. Seeing Mu Yang and Qian Chang two Asian faces walking in, Chen Ling stood up, and Liu Xu also sat up.

"You are Liu Xu, Hello, we are staff members of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the Houston Consulate General of the Embassy in the United States. My name is Qian Chang, his name is Mu Yang. We received your call for help and come and see how you are now injured." Qian Chang said warmly.

"I'm really troubled you." Liu Xu said as he was about to get up.

"Don't get up, let's sit down and talk. Tell us about the matter so that we can understand the situation." Qian Chang said.

Liu Xu lay down and began to tell the story.

"My girlfriend and I work in China and are preparing to go to the United States for a self-driving trip during the holidays, so I rented a car in Atlanta and headed west. But I was in Houston and was inspected by the police. When I was about to take out my driver's license, the police came up and beat me up, and then handcuffed me again. The movement was very rough and sprained my arm."
