Chapter 1347: Chapter One Thousand Three Hundred Thirty: Brewing Storm

Gao Yang kicked over many people, and even after his successful display of cool moves, he kicked over many more. His mood was beyond words, simply put, just one word—awesome!

Rushing into the car, Gao Yang grabbed the walkie-talkie and said urgently, "Quick, quick, let’s head to the next place."

The convoy raced towards the next target. This time it was far away, and after almost half an hour of driving, Albert spoke into the walkie-talkie, "We arrived, this is the place, oh, shit, there are police cars here, right at the entrance of the dojo we’re supposed to target. Should we still go?"

Gao Yang grabbed the walkie-talkie in annoyance and shouted, "Someone must have called the police earlier, don’t stop, let’s retreat immediately."

They had to give up the last target, Gao Yang felt a little regretful, but only slightly regretful.

The thrill had already been enjoyed, but the wrapping-up work remained; there was no need to stop. Gao Yang directly said over the walkie-talkie, "Find a spacious place up ahead to park, then designate some people to return the rental cars. Those with nothing to do, head to the airport. After having fun, let’s go back, there are still plenty of things to do."

After parking at a spacious area, several people were sent to return the cars; these were things Gao Yang didn’t need to handle. He directly walked to Morgan’s car, and when Morgan rolled down the window, he smiled and said, "We’re heading to New York, what about you? Are you coming with us?"

Morgan shook his head and said, "No, I’m heading back to my home in Portland. Let’s separate here, oh, you better have your lawyer prepared just in case those Koreans sue. You need to have your lawyer ready."

Gao Yang was stunned for a moment and said, "I don’t have a lawyer."

Morgan was also stunned, then remarked in astonishment, "You don’t have a lawyer? Are you kidding me? You actually don’t have a lawyer?"

Gao Yang nodded and said, "Yeah, why do I need a lawyer? I’m not always involved in lawsuits."

Morgan raised his hands with a look of disbelief and said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, this is a problem, a big problem. I’ve never talked to you about the lawyer thing because there’s a very strong confidential relationship between private lawyers and clients. I didn’t want to meddle in your lawyer issues. Also, I thought it was unnecessary to talk to you about it because people in your line of work should definitely have a lawyer, right?"

Gao Yang shrugged and said, "But I don’t have a lawyer, and no one has ever mentioned this to me before."

Morgan pushed open the car door directly, got out of the car, and anxiously walked around in a circle on the ground. Then he faced Gao Yang and said, "Gao, you can’t need me to remind you about everything before you do it. You need to consider thoroughly for yourself and your people, okay? You personally need a private lawyer, and your team or company needs a corporate legal team. Such a basic key knowledge issue, how have you not handled it until now?"

Gao Yang smiled wryly and said, "Sorry, I not only haven’t done it but I’ve never even considered it before."

Morgan sighed and then spoke with an expression of frustration, "Do you know where our advantage lies? I mean compared to ordinary people, where does our advantage lie? Because we have money, we have money to hire good lawyers to handle all legal issues for us instead of having an official government appointed lawyer for you. Now! Immediately! Now! Go find a good lawyer for yourself!"

After finishing, Morgan slightly frustratedly spread his hands and said, "Know about the Simpson case? Why does everyone around the world know Simpson killed his wife, but Simpson was acquitted? Because he had a very competent lawyer, it’s that straightforward!"

Gao Yang immediately said, "Alright, I’ll find a lawyer."

Morgan waved his hand and said, "Private lawyer, let your private lawyer handle all legal matters. But this requires you to trust your private lawyer because you’ll have to tell them anything that cannot see the light of day. Finding a private lawyer who can work with you long-term isn’t simple."

After a brief moment of contemplation, Morgan spoke seriously, "I’ll introduce you to a lawyer, a very famous lawyer in New York, very influential, but he’s unlikely to personally serve as your private lawyer because his clients are all big names. However, he’s set up a law firm, and even having one of his lawyers under him handle your legal issues will be sufficient."

After speaking, Morgan pulled out a pen from his body, reached into the car for a piece of paper, quickly wrote down a phone number, and handed it to Gao Yang, speaking seriously, "Call this number, tell him I recommended you, and ask him to help arrange a suitable lawyer for you. If you haven’t gotten into any major trouble, it won’t cost too much money, tens of thousands of Dollars a year should suffice. Until you find a private lawyer you trust, his influence should be enough to keep you out of major trouble. Of course, if you feel satisfied, long-term cooperation is also possible. Once you get back to New York, give him a call, don’t delay further!"

After seriously warning Gao Yang, Morgan got back into his car and said sternly, "Remember, call early, I’m leaving, goodbye."

With Morgan gone, Gao Yang looked at the paper, pocketed the phone number, and waved, saying, "We’re leaving too, fellas, see you at the airport."

It’s safe to say they escaped Los Angeles. Only after returning to New York did Gao Yang relax because he worried that the Koreans whose dojo they targeted might report to the police. Unless he had a major confrontation in Los Angeles, even if it were resolved in the end, he would still have to visit the police station, which was an outcome Gao Yang couldn’t accept.

Back in New York, things were easier to handle, firstly, the Los Angeles police wouldn’t come around so quickly, and even if they did come later, the matter would be easier than dealing with it in Los Angeles.

It was already nighttime when they traveled from Los Angeles to New York. Gao Yang was contemplating Morgan’s instructions, but it was too late in the evening to make phone calls, and even if he did, it would wait until the next day.

After a long journey, Gao Yang was physically and mentally exhausted, booking into a hotel. Although he had checked out of the rehabilitation center earlier, Gao Yang wasn’t completely recovered even by now, his health hadn’t returned to a state of no issues.

Early the next morning, Gao Yang’s door was knocked. When he opened the door, it was Yelena who had arrived early.

Glolov and Natalia were there too, making it inconvenient for Yelena to stay with Gao Yang, but as it was finally the weekend, with no classes, Yelena came to accompany him early.

"Still sleepy? Go back to sleep, don’t mind me."

Gao Yang rubbed his eyes, shook his head, and said, "No, my schedule has been irregular lately, I need to return to my previous routine."

At that moment, there was another knock at the door. Yelena went to open it, and it was Jansen, excitedly saying, "Boss, finally awake, I’ve been waiting for you to wake up, quick, open the computer."

Jansen’s eyes were red, his hair was disheveled, and he was still in the same clothes he wore yesterday. Gao Yang was startled and said, "You didn’t sleep a wink last night?"

Jansen said urgently, "Sleeping was out of the question, as soon as I got to the hotel last night, I started uploading videos to YouTube, now, my video is number one in hits! Boss, witness your magical moment."

Jansen opened the computer, navigated to a familiar website, and without searching, directly clicked on the hottest video, saying loudly, "Take a look, oh, and just to add, since around four o’clock this morning, the number of comments suddenly surged, and judging by ID, most are from Huaxia and Japan."

Seeing the number of views and comments on the video, Gao Yang immediately said, "Wow, things have really blown up!"

Jansen couldn’t contain his pride, laughed loudly, "My video ranks first, followed by videos from various perspectives and languages, Boss, YouTube is flooded with our videos now. We’ve covered major linguistic groups worldwide, hahah!"

Yelena laughed, "You’re too proud, your video is the hottest just because you speak English."

Gao Yang was more concerned about the comments, scrolling down and then sighing with relief, saying laughingly, "Overwhelming support for me kicking those people, it puts me at ease."

Jansen hastily replied, "No, I’ve roughly analyzed it, those with neutral views are about 30%, those who are crazily cursing you make up only about 5%, and judging by these IDs, they’re mostly from Korea, plus over 60% of the comments are cheering you on."

Gao Yang pointed at the screen and laughed, "I know, and the vast majority are from Huaxia and Japan."

Jansen snapped his fingers, laughed, "Yes, the comments from Huaxia and Japan have squashed the Korean comments so they can’t rise. Initially, there were Koreans claiming the video was fake, but after the rest of us uploaded all perspectives, that claim found no market, then, when comments from Huaxia and Japan surged, the Koreans being ridiculed stopped speaking out. However, I find it strange, why are comments from Japan even more than those from Huaxia?"

Gao Yang laughed, "Hmm, by now, comments must have exploded on Huaxia’s video sites."

Jansen grinned foolishly, "There’s a chance that my uploaded video might become one of the most phenomenally popular videos on YouTube."

Yelena laughed, "Wait for it, as the news spreads and more people learn about the video, the views will increase, this is just the beginning."

At this moment, Eileen walked straight in through the open door, and she said excitedly, "Good news, perhaps bad news, my video was reposted on the headlines of major German sites."

Jansen laughed, "That’s nothing, open all major American sites, no, all major global portal sites, there must be links to my video."

Gao Yang rubbed his chin, looking troubled, saying, "Fellows, do you think this thing will keep growing bigger? I feel like a storm is brewing and fermenting, this thing certainly won’t just end like this."

Jansen laughed, "It’s not a storm, it’s a superstorm brewing." (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations or monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com for reading.)
