Chapter 121 Visa

Time flies.

Lin Hong spent his thirteenth birthday in Beijing.

On the night of his birthday, he received a phone call from his master and father.

Before that, he had talked to his master several times. In fact, shortly after he arrived in Beijing, he installed a phone at his home.

Lin Hong's study in the United States has also been officially confirmed. A few days ago, he has passed some exams and reviews, such as the SLEP exam and the oral exam. Lin Hong has got a very high score. If there is no accident, the J-1 visa to the United States will come down for a few days.

Lin Hong's process is relatively smooth, because the United States is different from here. When applying for a visa, it is necessary to first contact the friendly reception family that accepts students. Many students are stuck at this step. They spend a lot of time contacting the families of American schools due to cultural differences between the two sides. The communication effect is not very good.

And Lin Hong's family is Cook, who is responsible for contacting and connecting. The two sides have talked on the phone many times and have been very familiar with each other.

Generally speaking, it is very good. HOST_DAD (reception family father) is a college teacher. "HOST_DAD reception family mother is a hospital nurse, with one man, one woman and two children. The boy Arthur is one year younger than Lin Hong. Of course, because the age on Lin Hong's file is two years older, so In fact, Arthur is one year older than Lin Hong.

During this period, Lin Hong also contacted LUS once, using the radio station of the S amateur wireless fan club. When the other party heard that Lin Hong was going to study in the United States, he was very happy. He left an email address for Lin Hong and asked him to email him as soon as he arrived in the United States, and he said that his operating system project had begun to be written.

This is Lin Hong's first contact with the concept of email. He also asked LUC for a closer understanding of email.

The name of e-mail comes from the concept of e-mail in life, but the main body of the letter has become information data. It appears to receive and send letters, and its function is the same as ordinary mail. But its advantages are obvious. It breaks through the limitations of time and space, so that people can communicate anytime and anywhere, very conveniently and quickly.

Compared with radio and telephone, email has obvious advantages. Even if the other party was not online at that time, it could receive messages from the sender.

Of course, there is an important premise for sending e-mail, that is, the Internet. Unfortunately, this condition is not available in China at present, so although Lin Hong wants to know the process of writing the operating system for LUS, he can only contact LUS after he arrives in the United States.

In fact, the first email in China has appeared for several years, and the relevant departments have been preparing for the construction of the network, but for the time being, it is only in research institutions and laboratories, and ordinary people have no access to it at all.

On New Year's Eve, Lin Hong and his mother flew back to Lingnan Province to spend the first reunion year with Jianqin.

However, he only has about a week in his hometown, because ten days later, he has to go to the U.S. consulate to go through the final formalities and get a visa to the United States.

After coming back, the first thing he visited his master Sun Jingtai and asked him about some problems encountered in the process of practicing.

His master Sun Jingtai was very shocked when he entered the dark stage so easily, puzzled, because it was completely unreasonable. Later, he heard Lin Hong say that he felt that his mental strength had been greatly improved, and he could easily mobilize the internal strength in his body, which was a little sudden.

Dark strength is the stage of refining the god of gasification. "God" is the key. Only you can successfully mobilize the "qi" in your body with your own "god", so it is easy to enter this level. Under normal circumstances, this level is gradual, and this stage can only be reached through practice and perception. But Lin Hong didn't know why there was a "god" directly first, and then acted on "qi" in turn.

So strictly speaking, his "dark power" is just a kind of "pseudo dark power". Whether it is the control of the musculoskeletal of the whole body or the combat consciousness, it is far inferior to the real dark power master, and he must go through continuous practice to reach the real dark power level.

His master Sun Jingtai agrees with Lin Hong's trip to the United States. Young people should go out and see and see, so that their horizons can be broadened. Before Lin Hong returned to Beijing, he gave a special explanation to Lin Hong. In addition, he also left him a contact information. After he arrived in the United States, he could have the opportunity to see his elder brother Zhang Cheng, who was opening a martial arts school in New York.

Only then did Lin Hong know that his eldest brother was in the United States, and there was also a third brother? The master didn't say anything, so he didn't ask.

In the past few days at home, he restarted the radio station that had not been enabled for a long time, and everything was fine. He successfully established a connection with Phylise, and also told the other party that she might go to the United States in the near future. Phylize was very happy and immediately left a phone number for Lin Hong to remember to call her after he arrived in the United States.

Time passed quickly at home, and Lin Hong flew back to Beijing again.

The next day after returning to Beijing, Lin Hong went to the school early to gather, and then the teacher led him to queue up outside the U.S. consulate.

The U.S. Consulate opens at 900 a.m., and they arrived at 8:20.

Surrounded by the parents of other classmates, they are all talking about what they are saying. The parents are worried. The parents seem to have endless words, and they are nagging to their children all the way to explain some things they have temporarily thought of.

Feng Wan also planned to accompany Lin Hong, but Lin Hong refused.

If you can't handle such a small thing on your own, why don't you go to the United States?

Lin Hong has been relatively independent since he was a child, and now he hopes that he can complete some things independently. Especially after reading some biographies, he realizes that an independent personality is very important for a person's growth.

At 9:00 a.m., the iron gate of the U.S. Consulate was finally opened, and the team began to move forward slowly.

The people queuing here are not all students. Men, women and children all have their own different reasons to rush to the same destination.

As soon as we entered the iron gate, the atmosphere of the whole team was completely different. There was no longer the previous relaxed noise, and it was replaced by solemnity.

The whole consulate seems to be gloomy, much lower than the temperature outside.

Everyone has a lot of materials in their hands. These materials need to be used in the interview later. Many people still read words. The questions that may be asked in the interview palace of the reciters are very solemn. Most people are very nervous, and no one wants to waste this precious time on it. Chat.

Lin Hong is probably the most boring one among them.

There are not many opportunities for him to look around at the surrounding environment. He observes the behavior and expressions of everyone with the mentality of a bystander, which is also quite interesting.

After entering, there was a security gate, standing next to the security guard. Everyone was asked to take out all the metal items on their bodies and let the security guard see it.

The security guard is also Chinese, and his attitude towards everyone is very bad. He always urges and says some sarcastic remarks.

In front of Lin Hong was a tall ponytail girl. She took out all the possible metal items on her body, and then walked into the security door, but the alarm still rang.

I didn't pay attention to the first ponytail. After all, many people usually call the alarm when they stand up for the first time.

She retreated and remembered for a long time that the earrings on her ears were metal items, so she quickly took them off.

Then go up.

The "dududu" alarm went off again.

The ponytail girl's face suddenly turned red. She quickly retreated and checked again, but she did not find any possible metal items. She stood up again, and the alarm immediately sounded again.

"What's the matter? Let you take out all the metal items. What else do you have on your body?" The security guard said impatiently.

"I...I..." The girl was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Can't you do this? Do you want me to help you?" The security guard stared at her with a beating face and said.

Lin Hong wrinkled, stepped forward and said to the girl, "Is your hairpin metal?"

The girl, whose tears had already rolled in her eyes, suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Hong gratefully. She quickly took off a hairpin on her head, and then successfully passed the security gate. When she went in, she said thank you to Lin Hong. Her voice was very beautiful, like a spring breeze blowing on her face, soft and gentle.

It was Lin Hong's turn to pass the security check. Unsurprisingly, he failed to pass it once, and the alarm sounded.

The security guard was about to reprimand a few words, but Lin Hong turned around and looked at him coldly. He directly made his heart feel cold and swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Lin Hong then took out two coins from his pocket and walked straight over.

"What a terrible look!"

The security guard looked at Lin Hong's figure with palpitations. I was just looked at by him, and I only felt that my blood had coagulated in an instant, and my breathing did not become smooth. This kind of look seems to have only been seen in the instructor who was responsible for training them, and it is more terrible than the instructor's eyes.

In the next inspection, the attitude of the security guard has eased a lot.

Lin Hong finally followed others to a hall. Originally, he thought the queue was over, but he didn't expect to continue to queue here. And seeing so many people sitting here waiting in front of him, Lin Hong could also guess that the queuing time would not be short this time.

I had been in line for more than an hour before, but I didn't expect to have to queue up now. Fortunately, there are still seats here.

After arriving here, Lin Hong was sent a small note with a number printed on it. This was his interview sequence number. A special staff called the number over there. When he called, he entered the room to interview the interviewer.

After waiting for about half an hour, Lin Hong saw the girl in front of him coming out of the room. In addition to the previous information, she also held a green card in her hand. There was a cheerful smile on her face. It seemed that she had successfully passed the interview and got the visa.

When passing by Lin Hong, the girl also smiled sweetly at Lin Hong.

Lin Hong smiled back, and then heard the staff calling his number.

It's finally his turn.

After entering the room, a middle-aged foreign man sat behind his desk. Needless to say, he must be American. His hair is gray and hairy, and his beard is curly.

The conversation between Lin Hong and him was very smooth. The other party was very surprised by Lin Hong's fluent English. The other party's accent was very formal. Lin Hong did not use the New York accent to talk to the other party, but replaced it with the standard official American English.

The questions asked by the other party are mainly about the home address of the reception in the United States, which school to study in, and his views on the United States, etc., because Lin Hong applied for a J visa, which is very purposeful. Lin Hong answered, and then the other party picked up all kinds of seals and stamped them on his materials.

When Lin Hong came out of the U.S. Consulate, he already had a small green card in his hand, which was his visa to the United States.
