“......”

Su Mu felt that his own grandfather was pit himself, because Kate knew some Chinese, most of them heard it, and hurriedly said: "This is my alumni in Castellar, and I am also a spokesperson for Penguin's products, I recently went to Hollywood to make a lot of movies, and I used to live in Chinatown." ”

I didn't expect Kate to come over at all, and after she greeted her warmly, she said with a smile: "I heard the news that you are in Chinatown, giving out gifts to people, my relative's house is not far from here, so I came to pay New Year's greetings, isn't it?"

Probably because of her beautiful appearance, it is easy for people to have a good impression, Su Mu's mother warmly beckoned her to sit down, and said: "The first time a celebrity came to our house as a guest, I saw the poster before and thought that your girl was good-looking, and the real person was even better-looking, fortunately, this time came, and we will leave after a while." ”

"That's really lucky, thank you for the compliment, I'm not a big star, I'm just an actor......"

Whether it is a star or an actor, it all makes Su Mu's mother feel rare, she used to live in Beverly Hills for a while, but I haven't seen many top stars, people will think of Hollywood when they mention Los Angeles, in fact, Hollywood is just a district of Los Angeles, and ordinary people don't have many opportunities to contact stars.

The relationship between Su Mu and Kate can barely be regarded as half a friend, because of the endorsement of Penguin's products, there will be occasional opportunities to meet, Lily is very generous about this, she believes in Su Mu, and she also believes in herself, and she doesn't like to be jealous and lose her temper.

I don't know how Kate found this place, Su Mu asked her, "Why did you go back to Chinatown?" I remember you said that you bought a house near Hollywood for your parents to live in, but I didn't expect to see you here. ”

The tone is very calm, what should have been seen has been seen very early, and now even the child can call his mother, and he has begun to learn to walk, and the feelings at the beginning have long since dissipated with age.

"Well, my family and I don't live here, and today my father came to visit relatives, you know, it's a Chinese holiday etiquette, so I came with him.

Lunch was at my grandfather's brother's house, dinner went to my uncle's house, Chinatown is still so lively, exactly the same as I remember, I also gave those little ones red envelopes, what about you?"

"I'm in a similar situation with you, but also to accompany the family for the New Year, but unfortunately I always feel different from before, when I was a child, I liked the New Year the most, wearing new clothes to go out to play with firecrackers, watch the dragon and lion dance, but unfortunately my son is not there, otherwise I can earn more New Year's money. ”

"Haha!" Kate, of course, knew that Su Mu was joking, took out a red envelope from her pocket, shook it and said, "I have prepared it in advance, you can help me transfer it to you and Lily's baby."

So...... My father is still waiting for me in the car, we'll talk next time?"

"Okay, I'll ask you to re-shoot some posters in a few months, it should be in April, the new high-performance gaming PC is about to hold a press conference, will you be free then?" asked Su Mu.

Kai nodded, made a phone gesture and said: "Just call me then, there is only one movie waiting to be filmed now, I play a supporting actress, I am not busy at all, there are many more people who let me shoot commercials than let me act in movies, I really didn't expect this." ”

"It's all good, I'll take you to the side of the road, I just had a little too much dinner, you need to walk a little bit to go around......"

Chinatown has the flavor of the New Year, but it is not strong, on the second day of the new year, I went to Li's house and Du's house to have a meal, and on the third day of the Lunar New Year, except for the red lanterns still hanging on the street, and the New Year couplets are posted at the door of the house, the others have not felt the joy of the New Year.

It's not easy to live in the stressful United States, where it's time to go to work, to open a store, and the Christmas and New Year's holidays are good holidays that can allow them to rest comfortably for a while.

In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, almost every night you can see drunk strangers, squatting on the side of the street and crying bitterly, Su Mu guessed that most of them were Chinese residents who had just left from China, or smuggling, or stranded in the United States, and began to miss their relatives on the other side of the Pacific Ocean during the Spring Festival.

In this era, in the impression of Chinese residents, the United States is full of gold, foreigners are all rich, after more than ten years of reform and opening up, especially in the coastal areas, many people are trying to run out, the foreign exchange black market is so rampant, because the market is too huge.

Some people have successfully made money in the United States, and after returning to China, they have become enviable rich, but many more people are working hard in the United States, let alone getting rich, and even having difficulty in solving the problem of food, drink and housing.

The United States is not as beautiful as they imagined, if it is really that good, Chinatown will not have so many low-level residents who immigrated as early as the last century and are still living in slums, thanks to the wave of immigration in recent years, many Chinatown residents who have houses have improved their lives, and they have made some money by renting out their houses, and housing prices have risen again and again.

It's okay for the men to come, at most to do some hard and cheap hard work, but the women can't say for sure, the market is said to be full of girls at night, and the scale has grown several times, mostly Chinese faces, and this red light district is famous throughout Los Angeles.

After Su Mu heard the news from Du Zhong's mouth, he felt worthless for these new immigrants from the bottom of his heart, you must know that the class in the United States is solidified, and there are people who can do the business that can be done, and there are people who can't do it, and Huaxia is still a new market that has just opened, and when it comes to the opportunity to make a fortune, there are actually more opportunities in Huaxia.

I can't figure out why I came to the United States thousands of miles to beg for a living. There are many Chinese Americans who are chased by the immigration bureau, disliked by the Chinese who are eager to work, do some low-level jobs, and lose their lives in the United States, and they don't even dare to go to the hospital when they are sick, is it worth it?

After really getting rich, Su Mu realized that there are many things that are far more important than money, and he recalled the happiest moment over the years, not when he earned his first pot of gold, not when the company went public, but on the day his son was born, when he saw him for the first time.

If someone knows what he thinks, most of them will feel that standing and talking does not hurt their back, people have their own ambitions, they choose to run to the United States, to be a third-class or fourth-class citizen who is not even a second-class citizen, Su Mu can't stop and say goodbye, with the emergence of these new immigrants, Chinatown is a lot more lively this year, and there are always so many people on the streets and alleys at night.

On February 19th, Su Mu went to Lily's house as a guest, and before leaving, he made a special trip to bring an oil painting of Picasso......
