Yun Nan
彩云之南，谓之云南。
飞机上空姐的广播，身边顽皮的孩童，并不能分散我欣赏3万英尺下的这块裸露的美丽红色土地。
当我纠缠于不能释怀的人性，马不停蹄的旅行，缺氧的会议，无数的问题，所有的开怀的和不开怀的经历。当生命和时间在肩膀的酸痛中流失，当我在一个又一个陌生的城市揉醒眼睛，身边的闹钟提醒下一个会议是30分钟后。疲惫如排山倒海的降临。仿佛间已经忘记了工作的初衷。
但是如果当时间静止，世界按照我想象的发展，可能我也会一样郁闷死吧。

Chinese Parents when facing immigration
Recently, I reviewed many EB5 investor files. Each file represents a little personal story; SOF will tell financial success; personal docs will tell child-born, marriage, divorce, remarriage, or death of a family member. Of the piles of paper reviewed, often times I was mostly stroked on many levels of how Chinese parents handle their children’s immigration future even after the parents are long-time divorced; often times under the situation where the un-custodial mother/father gets remarried and is now applying US immigration through EB5 with the new men/women. 100% of the situation is that the Child’s custody (if not under the EB5 beneficiary mother/father) will be transferred to the immigrating mother/father through either civil litigation or voluntarily abjuration of custody over that Child by the not-immigrating mother/father. Regardless of how fierce the custody war over that child was when the parents were divorcing, unanimously, the child now “belongs to” that immigrating parent. No objection WHATSOEVER from the other parent…
Many times I will see court papers stating such custody transfer without ANY condition and even the non-talking parents are now agreeing on times of visiting. More often than not, I will see statement titled “no objection to XXX’s immigration with mother/father” ended with a sentence of “I will never regret give up custody …” Disregard the legality of such statement under China/US laws, such statement and the language it contains often makes me feel unappeasable sadness. When facing their children’s future (immigration in this matter), the parents choose to clean up whatever in the way to pave a better path toward what they believed is better for the child….
As I was reviewing a similar file this morning, where the court paper for custody transference is dated March 10, 2012, I can’t help but writing the above, dedicating to my client, and my parents.

又要见到亲爱的你们了。
月底回国，北京-胡志明-上海。两个星期比较短。。。每次回国都能让我兴奋不已（我想我老了，不然为什么老想着落叶归根呢）。每次出差其实都打算做一个小Clip，把遇见的人和事记录下来。这个博客的名字是冠以移民，选择和其他。了解我的朋友都知道我除了职业的关系外呢，其实更加有兴趣是了解。。。和人生许多重大的选择一样，移民任何一个国家，对于地缘性强的中国人来说，都是一个重大的决定，关乎自己，生意，家人，儿女。好像很少有外国人理解中国家长为什么会砸锅卖铁的也要把孩子送到美国了，给他们铺好路，甚至不惜50/100的投资移民。。。。有时候我们遇见客人也总是着重项目啊，申请啊这些，很少有时间和他们聊聊为什么要移民，外国有什么打动他们想要移民。相反的，在美国也总有朋友讨论关于海归还是归海的问题，好像围城，进去的人想出来，在外面的人想进去。的确这好像是个纠结不去的问题。
一边是美好的蓝天，悠闲的空气，和蔼的邻居，舒适的房子。一边是毒牛奶，高房价，呼朋唤友，小酌两盅；一边是带血的牛扒，苦涩的咖啡，黄头发蓝眼睛，一边是楼下的包子豆脑，黑麻麻的人群，拥挤的地铁，一边是民主的天空，自由的空气，一边是母亲的呼喊，隔夜的乡愁。。。
朋友们有的“百人”归了，也有没找到合适工作的，归了，有工作没办到绿卡的，忍不了，归了。各种各样的理由，各种各样的经历。论坛上对于归还是不归，吵的不可开交。也有人默默的，收拾了行李，醒来就是 - 家乡。
也有更多的人，在问：是EB5好，还是魁北克好。牛奶金是多少钱？401K是什么概念。在美国有川菜吗？我孩子能上哈佛吗？是洛杉矶好还是芝加哥好？
中国人与生俱来的地缘性决定了去到除非家乡的哪里，都是异乡。
是海归，还是归海，是个选择，如果这个选择，是让自己及身边的人，选择更多，视野更开阔，有更多的option或者有更多的机会知道这个世界还有更多的option。那么，结果到底是怎样，过程到底是怎样，是海归了，还是归海了，有那么重要吗？
聊多了。回国见！！

EB5 I-526 批准的新数字
就移民局新的统计来说，2012年前三个月来的526 移民签证已经批准了2364个。而去年整年的批准数额为3463个。另外可能很少有人注意到但是EB5移民签证也是有定额的（每年1万个）。是不是会有一天也会用完呢？。。。。就像07年的H-1B签证一样第一天就用完了，呵呵呵。。。
当然了，H1B每年6.5万名额。而且不用投资50/100万。
