Chapter 63: Your Dad Is Dead This Time

As soon as everyone walked into the lobby on the first floor of the Empire State Building, they felt very good: not only because of the large space here, but also because there was a red and eye-catching Chinese New Year set in the exhibition window on the first floor, which was extremely festive!

Tomorrow is the New Year. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

You need to buy a ticket to visit the 86th or 102nd floor observation deck of the Empire State Building, and I didn't expect it to be a security check.

When Zhang Nan came last time, he was choked enough, and he waited for a lot of time in line for security, and he was not even allowed to bring a tripod for his camera!

After 911, the tripod became an offensive weapon?

In fact, it is not true, just because the tripod will take up too much space during the shooting, and there are too many visitors, it is inconvenient to go to the top of the building, which will affect other people, so it is forbidden to take it to the 86th floor.

The tickets were prepared by the travel company that arranged the itinerary, and when he was waiting for the elevator on the second floor after the security check, Jon Barons lined up behind Zhang Nan and said: "Now that the status of Chinese in the United States has improved, and the influence of Chinatown is increasing day by day, I didn't expect the Empire State Building to have a Chinese New Year set." ā€

"Hehe, yes, in the future, the influence of Chinese in the United States will become more and more great. ā€

"That's for sure! Just look at the international students who have come to study in the United States from you, and their enthusiasm for studying and working hard, you can understand that the rise of China is a historical inevitability. ā€

Jon was clearly not a racist, and chatted about a family secret, and even John Barons didn't even mention it in front of Zhang Nan.

"My father participated in the Korean War, and unfortunately he was captured by your volunteers. But he never took this as a stain on his life. ā€

Zhang Nan heard it, "I didn't expect that we were still opponents at the beginning." But you Americans, you don't discriminate against your own captives. ā€

"No, that's not what I meant! My father said that it is not shameful to be captured by the Chinese soldiers, your soldiers are too powerful! Tenacious to the point of exceeding the limits of human beings!

Moreover, after being captured, your military will treat American prisoners of war even higher than your own ration standards! This is impossible for any other country in the world!"

Hearing this, Zhang Nan shook his head at Jon's words about the treatment of prisoners of war in the second half of his heart, but it was all over and he didn't comment.

"With such a tenacious and humanist army, such a country is great and needs to be awe-inspired! The rise of China is unstoppable!"

Jon is nice, really nice!

Because it takes a while to queue, there are a lot of people visiting this point, and the leading comrades in front of them also heard the conversation here, and County Magistrate Li "crackled" to help Secretary Xiang who was in line as an interpreter.

Usually, Director Dian followed the secretary closely, but as soon as he heard the words of the American boss behind him, County Mayor Li was happy and took the initiative to become a translator.

Why?

County Magistrate Li knew the old background of his allies, and after listening to this translation, Secretary Xiang laughed there!

It's a lot of fun!

Jon felt very strange, so he asked Zhang Nan, what happened to the county magistrate?

Americans can't tell the difference between the secretary and the county magistrate.

"Secretary Xiang participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea at the age of 18, which is what you call the Korean-Xian-War, and your father is an old rival!"

When Jon heard this, he said to the front of the team: "County Magistrate Xiang, my father will definitely have a good drink with you tomorrow! After he returned to China, he has not met an old opponent back then!"

After the translation, Secretary Xiang was happy, grinned and said: "Then your father is finished! He was not our opponent on the battlefield more than 30 years ago, and he will definitely lie down at the wine table tomorrow!"

County Magistrate Li can't translate like this, and he is also laughing there.

Jon didn't understand, and looked at Zhang Nan.

"Oh, he said he was glad to have a drink with your father, but asked for Chinese wine. ā€

"Of course, China Moutai, I drank it last time I went to your Huaxia. ā€

Looking at Jon, Zhang Nan said in his heart: Your father is dead this time! Secretary Xiang can kill at least two bottles by himself!

But he didn't say anything, lest old John learn that the enemy is strong, and he will raise a white flag and surrender as soon as he sees it.

Finally waiting for the elevator, Zhang Nan and a group of 15 people entered together, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30... The high-speed elevator is really high-speed, and in 1 minute, the elevator will reach the 80th floor smoothly.

How can it be the 80th floor? The observation deck is on the 86th and 102nd floors? The tour company buys a two-tier sightseeing pass.

You have to queue up!

From the 80th floor to the 86th floor, Nima still has to take the elevator!

But fortunately, the queue here is fast, and after waiting for a while, everyone finally reached the 86th floor.

Zhang Li pulled Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Nan and couldn't wait to walk to the observation deck, and the result was the same as almost everyone: when they saw the scenery outside, they all sighed!

"Wow! Anan, it's spectacular!"

As the sun sets, the sky in New York after the snow is very clear, and you can see dozens of kilometers from the observation deck!

Except for the twin World Trade Towers not far away, they are already at the highest point of the city!

Director Dian made a cameo appearance as a photographer, and even the Chinese tour guide prepared a camera, and everyone took advantage of the fact that the light was good before nightfall, crackling and shooting!

Take solo photos, various group photos, and a large group photo that is absolutely indispensable.

County Magistrate Li was in a good mood and asked an American tourist on the observation deck to help, and pulled the tour guide together to take a group photo of 15 people.

These photos can not only be enjoyed at home and office, but can also be kept in the county-committee-county-government after returning to China.

The wind was very strong at a height of more than 300 meters, and because of Jon's reminder, everyone wore a lot of clothes, and there was no shortage of scarves or anything.

If you wear less, you will probably freeze half to death!

After taking the photos, everyone didn't leave, because you still have to see the night view of New York. Visit the Empire State Building at this point to see the sunset and night view at the same time.

The night view of New York at this height is said to be even more shocking than the daytime view!

Zhang Nan took his sweetheart's hand and watched the sunset side by side.

But soon it will be too cold, so hurry up and run indoors!

As soon as I entered the house, I was happy, and everyone after the group photo was scattered on the observation deck, and everyone would be here. Director Liu still sighed with emotion: "It's really a high place, it's unbearable cold! More than 300 meters! High altitude in winter, strong winds, and extremely cold to the bones! I can't bear it, I can't bear it!"

At this time, everyone realized that there was something wrong with the observation deck of the Empire State Building, that is, there was no place to sit here: probably in case tourists came up and felt that the scenery was too beautiful and refused to leave.

But everyone can withstand it: As for Xiao Jianan, this little ghost is in good spirits! At home in Yan County, on rest days, the older children in the unit are often allowed to play with the city god mountain, and they are as strong as a cow!

This little activity means that I always want to run outside, and my sister Zhang Hui will not let me go, for fear that the cold wind will blow too much and catch a cold.
