Text Chapter 813 Maine Lobster
Di Wei continued: "His family is not just a famous doctor, David Dow's life feels like Hollywood can be used to make movies, he fled from Vietnam to the Stars and Stripes, and became a doctor after being admitted to medical school. In his medical career, he was once reported to have sexually assaulted a male patient after taking drugs! Although he won the lawsuit and was finally acquitted, his medical license was revoked, and ten years later, at the age of 67, he re-obtained his medical license. β
Xiao Peng was completely stunned, this guy is too fierce, right? You know, the medicine and legal education in the Stars and Stripes Country are very different from Huaxia.
In Huaxia, medical education starts from undergraduate, after graduating from high school, directly apply for the university medical major, the duration of education is basically five years, after graduation to obtain a bachelor's degree in medicine, there are also seven years, called bachelor's and master's degree continuous study, after graduation to obtain a master's degree, there is also an eight-year system, called bachelor's, master's and doctoral continuous study, after eight years, after passing the graduation thesis defense, you can obtain a doctorate degree in medicine.
However, the medical school in the Stars and Stripes Country does not recruit undergraduates at all, and students who want to enter the medical school must have a bachelor's degree or have the same academic qualifications before they can enter the medical school! Therefore, the first-year students of the Stars and Stripes Medical College and the first-year students of the Huaxia Medical College are not at the same level at all.
If a student wishes to go on to medical school after graduating from university, they will take a number of medical-related courses during the four years of university study, which are collectively referred to as 'pre-med'. In addition to taking pre-med courses and having a bachelor's degree, students must also take the national examination, which is not enough, but also have to have information recommended by university teachers, students' own admission applications, and records of participating in various social welfare activities and community activities while in school. Only one-third of the students who apply for medical school each year make it.
After being admitted to medical school, generally study for four years, the tuition fee is very expensive, and it is almost impossible to have a scholarship, tuition plus living expenses, more than 50,000 US dollars a year, during this period, you have to pass the first stage of the All-Star National Medical Licensing Examination The second stage, if you graduate, you can't become a doctor immediately after getting a degree, you must go to be an intern doctor for a few years, and at the same time take the third stage of the national medical licensing examination, only after passing can you become a formal doctor!
In the Stars and Stripes National Examination for a medical license, it is undoubtedly more difficult, not to mention anything else, just say that professional words are enough for people to drink two pots, and the pass rate of the three-stage examination is extremely low. David Dao won the medical license again at the age of 67, which may also set a record for the highest age to obtain a medical license in the Stars and Stripes Country.
If you are a family doctor, three years of internship is almost enough, if you are a surgeon, it will take more than five years, if you are a specialist, the internship period can be as long as more than eight years------!
"Do you think that's the end of it?" said Di Wei, "not only that, that David Dao is also a first-class poker master, who has participated in the Poker World League eight times and has received $2 million in prize money alone! It is said that he once won more than $7 million in a Las Vegas casino."
Gold. β
Xiao Peng whistled: "Star United Airlines has really hit an iron plate." β
Di Wei smiled: "Isn't it, he formed a team of lawyers to sue Star United Airlines at that time, and one of the lawyers, Thomas De Muto, is David Dao's family lawyer, which is rated as the top ten litigation lawyers in the whole country, and the amount of damages that have been reached is more than one billion US dollars! The other lawyer is the top 5 aviation lawyer in the whole country, and these two lawyers have tossed Star United Airlines enough!" During that time, the stock price of Star United Airlines fell by more than 200 million US dollars, and Star United Airlines privately compensated David Dao a huge amount of money, according to insiders, the compensation amount may reach hundreds of millions of US dollars. β
"Wow couple. This is much faster than me!" Xiao Peng sighed.
Di Wei laughed and said: "Mr. Xiao, then you will take more Starlink planes in the future, they often overbook tickets, every time they overbook tickets need people to get off the plane, they will give priority to Asians, last year there were more than 500,000 people in the Stars and Stripes country who were forced to get off the plane because of this problem, this situation is simply too common here." If one day they really want to get you off the plane, you do the same, and make sure they pay more, you know, you are Lord Samuel, and you are the existence of defeating Mayweather. β
"Oh, you know everything?" Xiao Peng smiled.
"Of course, now no one in the Chinese circle of the Stars and Stripes knows you, and they all say that you are the new generation of Bruce Lee, Ada Ada!" Di Wei shouted exaggeratedly as he drove the car.
"Drive well!" Xiao Peng looked at the parade outside the car window and asked curiously: "Since Duxing United Airlines has lost money, why are so many people still marching here? Do you want to share points? Just because the relevant reports have been deleted? It has nothing to do with them, right?"
Di Wei held the steering wheel in one hand, and stretched out three fingers with the other hand: "First, these people have been bullied by Star United Airlines, and they took the opportunity to vent their evil anger and disgust Star United Airlines. Second, seeing that David Dao has received so much compensation, they also want to see if they can get some points, and they all want to make extra money; third, and most importantly------, they are idle anyway, so it's not bad to come and pass the time. β
Xiao Peng was completely speechless when he heard the third answer.
Big brothers and sisters of the Stars and Stripes, you are too idleγγγγγγ
"Mr. Shaw, we're at our destination! You can't go to Boston without eating lobster, and you can't go without eating lobster in Boston. After Di Wei stopped the car, he pointed to the old house at the intersection of Union Avenue and introduced to Xiao Peng: "Although the lobster set of 'Legal Sea Food' is also very famous, it is a chain restaurant everywhere after all, and the taste of lobster is not much worse, nor is it much better, it is just that taste." This 'Union Oyster' is different, it was the first restaurant in the entire Stars and Stripes, and since 1826, the Boston lobster here has been the best in the world! β
Xiao Peng also has a grudge against Boston lobster, when he participated in the Shanghai International Fisheries Expo, he wanted to buy a batch of Boston lobster lobster seedlings from Wharton Fishery, but Nelson Wharton's brother Kanter Wharton directly refused the business, Xiao Peng was angry, and made Wharton Fishery a good toss, but later Qianliyan got it
The shrimp seedlings of the European blue lobster can be regarded as making up for the gap that there is no crayfish in Qianliyan.
That's right, although the Boston lobster has the word lobster in its name, from a biological point of view, the Boston lobster and the European blue dragon are both crayfish, which are very similar to crayfish, but larger. And the splendid lobster of Qianli Rock, and the Australian lobster of Australia, that is the lobster------ the real lobster does not have two big pincers.
However, because Boston lobster is much cheaper than Australian lobster, the price of Boston lobster is generally less than one-third of that of Australian lobster. Therefore, it is deeply loved by Chinese people, and it is no exaggeration to say that the current shrimp industry in the Maple Leaf Country and the shrimp industry in the Stars and Stripes Country are dependent on China to survive. Last year, Nova Scotia's exports to China alone amounted to $150 million. Every day, several cargo flights fly lobsters from Maple Leaf Country and Boston directly to China. Who makes the Chinese people like to eat this thing?
The reason why Boston lobsters are cheap is because of the large production, but because there is no seasonal fishing limit, while Australian lobsters have seasonal restrictions and are better than Boston lobsters, so the price is expensive.
What's more interesting is that, just like there is no Yangzhou fried rice in Yangzhou, China, Boston lobster is actually not produced in Boston, in the vast icy waters of North America, there are this kind of lobster, and there is also this kind of crayfish in Maple Leaf Country, but this kind of crayfish is called 'Maple Country Lobster' in Maple Leaf Country, but it is not called Stars and Stripes Country Lobster, but is called Maine Lobster, because Maine is the rich production area of this kind of crayfish.
And Boston as the Stars and Stripes seafood distribution center, most of the Maine lobsters are traded here, so the Chinese who do seafood are conventionally called 'Boston lobsters', of course, if you tell the Stars and Stripes that you want to buy Boston lobsters, generally no one will bird you, you have to say buy Maine lobsters.
Xiao Peng listened to Di Wei's introduction, but also became interested, and followed Wen Jie to this 'United Oyster', before entering, Xiao Peng first saw a very familiar bronze plaque on the wall, and there was also such a piece at the door of the Wigwam Hotel on Route 66, which was a 'National Historic Landmark' plaque issued by the government of the Stars and Stripes.
Well, the first restaurant in the whole country, it is not surprising that there is such a plaque.
Once you're at the restaurant, it's easy to see that it's only seafood. Everywhere is a model of what seafood. Everything here is antique and looks the same as it was more than a hundred years ago. The walls are full of photos of celebrities who have been hosted here, from politicians to celebrities, all of whom are famous.
Di Wei was quite happy: "Brother Peng, we are lucky today." β
Xiao Peng didn't understand what he meant, Di Wei led him to a circular table like a bar in the middle of the restaurant, where an elderly local chef with a kind and simple face stood in the middle of the table, with boxes and boxes of fresh oysters and other shellfish beside him, and his task was to process the seafood on the spot and hand it to customers.
Sitting in front of the bar and eating, you can watch the old chef's every move, whether it is his cooking skills or whether the ingredients are fresh or not, it is indeed a good position to sit and eat. (https:)
