Jiang Shigong (b. 1967) is a professor of law at Peking University and a prominent member of China's New Left, as well as a talented apologist for Xi Jiping Thought. This text, originally published in August, 2019, was republished online on September 26, 2020, following Meng Wanzhou's return to China. Jiang, who writes frequently about empire, and particularly the American empire, penned this text to explain to Chinese readers the legal mechanisms by which the “long arm of justice” of the United States works its mischief throughout the world on behalf of the financial and legal interests of the American empire.

1 强世功, “孟晚舟果然不是最后一个: 美国再度’换手’的隐藏逻辑,” published in the online edition of Beijing Cultural Review on September 26, 2021. In fact, this is a republication, and the original was published by Beijing Cultural Review in August of 2019, under the title “The Long Arm of Empire's Justice: The Legal Underpinnings of U.S. Economic Hegemony.”
2 Translator's note: This term is part of the lexicon from Chinese imperial administrative practice. Such an emissary would be dispatched by the emperor and subject to no authority but his.
3 Translator's note: I have seen passing references to a “Jewish lawyer” who reversed course half way through and turned over his findings to the U.S. government rather than serving ZTE, but the publications were of the National Enquirer variety and no details were given.
