At the end of the first month of 1979, the cold weather was still bitter in the north and south of the country, and Deng Gong was cloaked and held a sword and embarked on a journey to the United States. This trip is of great significance, as it is the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China that Chinese people have traveled across the ocean to show their style in the United States.
When Deng Gong and his entourage stepped into the United States, they were greeted with surging enthusiasm, and both the official and the people were full of enthusiasm and curiosity. The people of the United States have a heart of exploration and are looking forward to seeing the style of the Oriental giant.
However, as fate would have it, in this short eight-day trip, several thrilling accidents were encountered.
The first incident occurred on the morning of the second day of arrival in the United States. At the beginning of the morning on January 29, when Deng Gong and his entourage stepped into the South Lawn of the White House, they accepted the warm welcome ceremony held by Carter himself.
In Carter's gushing welcome speech, suddenly, a man and a woman in the group of reporters suddenly burst out, dancing with their hands and shouting. Fortunately, there was already a **arrangement in the reporter team, and it was immediately arranged.
It is reported that the ** person is said to be a reporter of the "Workers' Daily". He was detained in accordance with the law and fined before he was released.
However, when night fell, outside the White House, there were people gathering**, and even injured more than a dozen police officers, alarming the local **, and more than 20 people were arrested on the spot, which calmed down the situation.
Just two days after setting foot in the United States, two thrilling emergencies occurred in succession, which shows the difficulties and dangers of this trip.
On 1 February, Deng Gong left Washington on a special plane and flew to Atlanta, the capital of Georgia.
However, when Deng Gong arrived at his accommodation, he found that the street was already crowded, and it was said to be a crowd of people from a religious group.
Near the hotel where Deng Gong was staying, there was even more commotion that night, but fortunately it did not affect the process of the visit, but the disturbance was still worrying.
The next day, it was even more thrilling.
On February 2, Deng Gong set foot in Texas and came to Houston, the capital of Texas, to start a visit.
The tense situation over the past few days has caused great confusion on the US side, and they speculate that the anti-China forces will hold large-scale demonstrations here, and in order to prevent trouble, they have mobilized more than 6,000 military and police officers to stand by in strict formation. From Washington to Seattle, military and police patrols cover the sky, with tens of thousands of people.
However, despite the cautious precautions of the US side, two shocking emergencies still occurred on 2 February.
First of all, it happened in the hotel where Deng Gong was staying, an extremist was mixed in, and when Deng Gong stepped out of the elevator, this person took out a bag of items and threw it at Deng Gong. Everyone present was terrified, thinking that this bag must be a bomb, and the consequences would be terrible. Luckily, it turned out to be just a flyer.
It is worth mentioning that Deng Gong was calm and calm in this emergency, and he did not panic, which is admirable. However, the incident is not yet over.
In the afternoon of the same day, Deng Gong went to the Simonton City Arena to attend a dinner and enjoy the competitive performance. Just as Deng Gong was about to go downstairs and get into the car, a man rushed up from behind. Our entourage was left and right, and the American security personnel were also behind, but this person came straight to Deng Gong, but fortunately, an American guard named "Kelly" quickly shot out and knocked him down with a punch.
It is understood that this person's name is Louis Beam, a member of the "Ku Klux Klan". ** Later, several other members of the same party held release cards and demonstrated.
The Ku Klux Klan is a long-established terrorist organization in the United States that advocates white supremacy and represents the dark side of racism in the United States.
The unexpected events in the past few days have made our side uneasy, so we have put forward a request to the US side to strictly protect the safety of Deng Gong.
Thanks to our resolute request, the security work of the US side has been greatly strengthened, and the police anti-riot squad, armed with wooden sticks, equipped with tear gas and other equipment, has imposed a blockade and martial law on the itinerary and hotels of the Chinese delegation, so as to ensure our safety at all.
On 5 February, Deng Gong officially concluded his visit to the United States and set off safely for China.
