Chapter 96: A Simple Boy

At this time, a cameraman who was taking pictures of Kim Hyun-tae suddenly stopped, put down the camera in his hand, and stared at Kim Hyun-tae for a long time.

"Ah! This is William King, the brave young man in the shooting incident. Why was he also invited by Governor George?"

The photographer who recognized Kim Hyun-tae suddenly seemed to have discovered some precious animal, and the expression on his face instantly became very exciting, and he quickly said a few words to his colleagues.

At the same time, many people recognized Kim Hyun-tae and immediately surrounded him.

Seeing the situation, Dave didn't care about posing anymore, and quickly stood in front of Jin Xiantai, and at the same time said to the media reporters who gathered around: "William's body is still recovering, and he won't accept interviews, please Everyone can understand. We accepted the invitation of Governor George to attend this charity dinner."

Annie wanted to avoid the media, so Dave had to stand up at this time, and he knew his position very well.

Therefore, as soon as he came up, he told the media reporters that Kim Hyun-tae was in good health and had not fully recovered, so he would not accept interviews. At the same time, he also explained that he was invited to attend this dinner. Ask endlessly.

It's a pity that if these media people are so easy to dismiss, then it is impossible for them to mix in this business.

Everyone ignored Dave at all.

"William, do you know that Governor George is going to run in next year's presidential election?"

"Hi! Kim, what do you think of Governor George's election platform? Don't you think it's a little too radical?"

"William, I'm Conton, a reporter from the Los Angeles Entertainment News. I want to know if you support George's ruling philosophy?"

These guys were all asking about George, and they didn't hear any questions about the shooting at all, so it can be seen that the media is not paying attention to this matter now.

In this regard, Dave, who was ignored, was a little disappointed.

But Kim Hyun-tae was very indifferent, and was happy that the shooting incident was not paid attention to.

You know, at the beginning, he didn't intend to show that kind of limelight, but was forced to do so.

Today, for the media like them, the most important thing to pay attention to is the old George who announced his participation in the next year's presidential election, his radical campaign platform, and his ruling philosophy.

These are the things that the public likes to watch and understand the most.

After more than a month of coverage of the shooting, the public has long since lost interest.

Unless there is a verdict from Benny, the public will continue to pay attention.

Jin Xiantai did not respond to the questions of the media reporters, but acted as a silent lamb, which made the media reporters have nothing to do with him.

After all, if Kim Hyun-tae doesn't speak, you can't go over and pry his mouth open and force him to say something.

For Kim Hyun-tae's clever way, Annie, who hid aside, admired it very much.

Although the media cannot be offended, in this country that advocates freedom of speech, you still have the right to remain silent, right?

It is better not to say anything than to offend people too much.

Besides, Kim Hyun-tae is still underage,

Using such a rogue method is also an effective approach.

On the small stage, the foreign spokesperson of the California public sector was still using compliments, expressing his gratitude and gratitude for donating 1.5 million US dollars "big money" Kim Hyun-tae. Not very attractive.

Anne looked through the crowd at Old George who was preparing to appear on stage. Then she looked at Kim Hyun-tae, who was not in good spirits.

Seeing that Jin Xiantai's spirit is not very good, Annie knows that he is a little tired now, after all, his body has not fully recovered yet.

Fortunately, George's appearance on the stage soon relieved Kim Hyun-tae from the siege.

When Old George stepped onto the small stage again, all the media surrounding Kim Hyun-tae scattered, pushing and shoving towards the small stage.

"Are you okay? I don't think your face looks very good."

Annie came over at this time, looked at Kim Hyun-tae with concern and asked.

It is true that I feel a little tired now, but the problem is not too big.

Seeing Annie looking at him with concern, Jin Xiantai felt warm in his heart.

After all, he is also a normal person, and occasionally needs someone to take care of him.

"It's okay, if you stick to it, there should be no problem. But my body is too weak now, I think I should start rehabilitation training? It always happens, I worry that it will become a waste in the future gone."

After responding to Annie and telling her not to worry so much, Kim Hyun-tae made a small request with a wry smile, that is, he hoped that he could start physical rehabilitation training at the rehabilitation center.

He has been lying on the hospital bed since he was shot. Even when he arrived at the rehabilitation center, his body has begun to recover slowly, but even if he goes out, he has to use a wheelchair, and the gunshot wound has not fully healed. Because of this, Kim Hyun-tae obviously felt that his body was not as good as before.

Therefore, Kim Hyun-tae is very afraid of his future, and will become very weak, like a bitch, coughing non-stop after walking a few steps, and even swaying when the wind blows.

This situation, even if he imagined it, he felt very horrible and disgusting.

"No problem, I will discuss this matter with the rehabilitation center when I go back, and then cooperate with the medical team to come up with a plan."

Annie looked at Jin Xiantai with a distressed expression, and then bit her lower lip: "William, why don't we leave now. At worst, let someone send you that award to the rehabilitation center."

She really felt sorry for Kim Hyun-tae. Seeing his tired appearance, Anne felt uncomfortable at all, so she finally made a suggestion.

Hearing this, Kim Hyun-tae shook his head: "This is not good, I'd better wait until I finish receiving the award before leaving."

He thought more than Annie, and he was afraid of offending old George and leaving an impression of pride and conceit, so he didn't accept Annie's proposal.

Kim Hyun-tae did not accept his proposal, and Annie had nothing to do.

She had no choice but to hold Jin Xiantai's hand, and said to him with heartache: "Don't force it. If you are really uncomfortable, just say it. Governor George is a good man, and he won't blame you."

Hearing this, Kim Hyun-tae smiled at Annie, raised his hand and patted the back of her hand lightly: "Don't worry, there's no problem."

At this time, Old George was already standing on the small ceremony stage, picked up the microphone and said some unnutritious clichés, the guests below also gave their applause hypocritically, and the atmosphere was harmonious and harmonious.

Old George murdered a lot of film, and his appearance on stage is perfect, at least Kim Hyun-tae thinks so.

elegant! Gentlemanly!

Humorous and humorous, but also from time to time witty remarks.

I have to say that the politicians in the United States are really different from the officials in China.

All this brought Kim Hyun Tae a strong sense of freshness, which made him feel very interesting.

"Next, I would like to invite a brave young man to the stage. This young man must be familiar to everyone. What I want to say is that this young man pushed away his classmates with great courage when facing the murderer's gun. , with my own life..."

Jin Xiantai blushed, Old George praised him too much, and he couldn't listen to it himself.

As soon as George finished speaking, the applause broke out again.

The guests around Jin Xiantai all looked back at him with faint smiles.

When old George said this, how could the people present not know who he was talking about.

Obviously, it was this young man in a wheelchair.

"Come on! Let's invite this boy to the stage with even more warm applause. At the same time, let us congratulate him on winning the state award of [California Sunshine Boy]."

The applause that hadn't dissipated sounded again, and Dave slowly pushed the wheelchair, leading Jin Xiantai onto the small ceremony platform.

Under the stage, the flashlights were still shining brightly, which made Kim Hyun-tae unable to open his eyes.

Old George received a framed award certificate from the staff, and then handed it to Kim Hyun-tae who was sitting in a wheelchair.

[California Sunshine Boys] What kind of award is this?

And it's state.

So, this award is only a California award.

For some information about this award, Kim Hyun-tae didn't know much about it and was at a loss.

However, Anne in the stands and Dave next to her seemed to be very happy that they were able to win this award, so this should be a good award.

Kim Hyun-tae thought secretly in his heart.

It doesn't matter, anyway, George awarded himself this award, and he just took it.

At this time, old George squatted down, not caring about his image as the governor at all, and seemed very close to the people.

His approach won the favor of many people at once.

Putting on a show, this is one of the basic qualities of an American politician. If you don't even know this, hehe... then you are a waste.

"Aren't you afraid of facing the gun at that time?" Old George, who squatted down, asked Kim Hyun-tae a small question.

Kim Hyun-tae sat in a wheelchair holding the award, and shook his head upon hearing this.

"I didn't think about it that much at the time. To be honest, fear and fear, I really didn't have time to think about it at the time."

What Kim Hyun-tae said was very simple, without a little embellishment, but it sounded very real, not false at all.

The big guys are all thinking secretly in their hearts, if they encounter such a thing, do they still have time to think about whether they are afraid or not?

joke!

This is simply impossible.

Therefore, what Kim Hyun Tae said was the truth.

It was also because he was telling the truth that everyone had a good impression of him.

Old George observed the reactions of the guests in the audience, and then asked, "Do you regret it? I heard that you were shot three times, and your heart almost stopped beating at one point."

"I have no regrets. If I go back in time, I will still make this choice. It is impossible for me to abandon the girl next to me and run away alone. This is what scumbags do. More importantly, I am a man!

And I think all the men present will make the same choice as me when faced with this dangerous situation, right? "

In the end, Jin Xiantai had a flash of inspiration, and asked the guests in the audience.

And in the face of this kind of question, how do you ask the male guests who are "successful people" to answer?

Of course... "Yes! As men, we must look like men! Young man, your choice is not wrong!"

Very clever little guy.

Old George nodded secretly.

Under the stage, there was another burst of flashing lights flashing and flashing, and a burst of 'click! Click! 'sound.

Old George stood up at this time, and at the same time took Jin Xiantai's right hand, and slowly scanned around the audience.

"William has set an example for all of us! A very good example! He is a role model. After all, many adult men may not necessarily make such a choice at such a critical moment of life and death. You must know that this is on your own. A choice between life, and the life of others."

Old George put away his smile and became serious.

"We have to admit that William is a noble person. He educated us with his own actions. In this impetuous society where everyone only thinks of money, we can't abandon our moral concepts and stand up for this at a critical moment. This concept of justice must be carried forward..."

Listening to old George's words, Kim Hyun-tae felt a pain in the ass.

Is this still America?

Are you still an American politician?

Why do you make me suddenly have a sense of sight when facing Chinese officials!

Old George clapped and played, and won warm applause again, but it is unknown how many people came from the heart.

Finally, Kim Hyun-tae took the microphone and started to give the final speech

There was silence in the audience, and everyone's eyes were on him.

"I dare not say that I am a good person. I also have some minor problems of one kind or another. As we all know, I am still a single underage father, so strictly speaking, I should not be regarded as an excellent boy."

After thinking about it for a while, Kim Hyun-tae first denied himself, and at the same time he downplayed himself, he also pointed out the "black history" in himself.

The guests below laughed softly.

This "black history" of Kim Hyun-tae has been reported in the media.

The father of a minor did not have a good reputation.

But now that Kim Hyun-tae speaks out by himself, it makes people feel that he is very sincere, not at all hypocritical, and it makes everyone's impression of him even deeper, and their favorability has also greatly increased.

After Kim Hyun-tae waited for everyone's laughter to subside a little, he continued: "I can't bear the title of 'hero'. What I do is just what a man should do. And anyone with correct moral values, and People with the concept of justice, when faced with this kind of danger, will make the same choice as me, so I have nothing special..."

A sincere person can always win the favor of most people.

The same goes for Kim Hyun Tae.

Although only a few words were spoken, this effect has already been achieved.

applause!

Very warm applause.

Annie, who was holding Coco and looking at Kim Hyun-tae in the corner, couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Little Coco in her arms didn't pay attention to her father's side, but focused on the buffet food.

Next, Kim Hyun-tae said some very bureaucratic words, which are very in line with the mainstream public morality. After all, he watched the news broadcast for more than 20 years in his previous life, and it was not for nothing.

Unexpectedly, the final reaction was quite good, which was beyond Jin Xiantai's own expectations, making him a little dumbfounded.

About ten minutes later, Kim Hyun-tae finished his speech on the stage, and was pushed off the stage by Dave.

Originally, old George wanted to keep him for a while, but he suddenly found that Annie shook her head to signal to him, and old George immediately dismissed the idea.

At the same time, he also noticed that Jin Xiantai's face was not very good-looking, so he understood Anne's meaning.

After coming to the audience to see Annie and her daughter, Kim Hyun-tae smiled wryly and said to Annie.

"For the time being, can we eat something before going back, I'm a little hungry."

Yes, Kim Hyun-tae hasn't eaten anything since he came to the banquet.

Annie hurriedly said, "Then what do you want to eat? I'm out today anyway. Why don't we find a restaurant outside and have a meal before going back."

Annie's proposal moved Jin Xiantai's heart. After thinking about it, he thought it was the same reason.

Anyway, I came out, and eating back is also eating, it is better to go back after eating outside.

He is not interested in the buffet at the banquet, only his daughter Keke likes it. The child doesn't understand anything, and she can't be blamed.

Dave interjected at this time: "I know a good Northwest China-style restaurant, which is very famous in Los Angeles, why don't we go there to eat?"

Dave knew that Kim Hyun-tae liked to eat Chinese food, and he didn't have a cold for Western food at all, so he made such a proposal.

Annie also knew Kim Hyun-tae's taste, so when Dave proposed, she looked at Kim Hyun-tae, waiting for him to make up his mind.

Northwest flavor?

Kim Hyun-tae swallowed.

"Okay! Let's eat here."
