Next chapter

On the TV screen, a male reporter in a waterproof jacket grabbed the microphone in his hand with one hand, and was still whispering at a rapid pace.

However, the audience in the living room could not hear what he said, the wind was too loud, and the professional microphone noise suppression system could not withstand it.

Of course, just by looking at his current appearance, normal people can guess what he just said.

Mr. Reporter's clothes were pressed firmly on his body by the wind, showing the outline of his strong chest muscles, but at this moment, he could not see a trace of the masculine beauty that Mr. Fitness should have, but like a poor worm hugging his thighs, the other arm of the sturdy reporter was firmly holding the trunk of the tree next to him at the moment, and he didn't dare to let go at all.

Looking at the way his hair, clothes, and even his face fluttered and trembled in the wind, everyone would not have the slightest doubt that if he let go of his hand, he would not be blown away by the terrifying hurricane.

After reading the on-site report sent back by Mr. Reporter with a rope life, Tang Jiayi, who was sitting on the carpet, sighed heavily, not lamenting the professionalism of others and the difficulty of making money, but lamenting her bad luck.

Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather began to deteriorate, first cloudy and overcast, and now it was raining heavily, but it was a mess of her planned Statue of Liberty-Manhattan-Central Park day trip.

When the people in China celebrated the National Day, there was a tropical cyclone in the Atlantic Ocean southeast of the United States that evolved into a hurricane, which was given the number 10 and the name Joaquin by the NHC (National Hurricane Center), and now the heavy rain and wind in New York are the outposts of this hurricane.

The typhoon naming table in Asia is jointly compiled by 14 countries and regions in the Pacific Rim, including animals and plants such as swans, swordfish, plum blossoms, mythical characters such as Wukong and Fengshen, and more transliterated names of Maintai such as Ramasun, Shengpa, etc., and the names of typhoons broadcast by the Meteorological Observatory are always mixed and matched.

In contrast, the naming of Atlantic hurricanes is contracted only by the NHC in the United States, and they have prepared a bunch of names such as Anna, Blanche, and CA Mi L as hurricane names, which are quite easy to remember in alphabetical order. Originally, these names were all female names, but they were later changed to male and female names after protests from feminists, and this time Hurricane No. 10 was a boy named Joaquin.

Typhoons and hurricanes are actually the same thing, both are severe tropical cyclones with continuous winds of more than 32.7 meters per second (about 118 kilometers per hour) near the center for a minute, but according to local language customs, East Asian countries use typhoon (from the Fujian and Cantonese dialect), while the United States is used to using hurricane (hurricane, from the local language of the Caribbean), and other regions also have their customary names.

Affected by the topography of the sea and land and the atmospheric system, typhoons and hurricanes born in the Northern Hemisphere often move all the way to the west and north until they consume clean energy and water vapor and finally reduce to tropical cyclones and tropical depressions.

Although there is a strait outside the heron island and it is rarely directly landed by a typhoon, but the heavy rain and wind brought by it cannot be avoided, Tang Jiayi only saw the Venice of the East last month, and now she is going to see the Venice of the New World.

The hurricane affected the surrounding weather, and she basically didn't expect to see any good weather until Hurricane Joaquin passed through, so she felt extremely depressed.

Although Atletico persuaded her that she could just go to enjoy Manhattan in the rain, she just couldn't arouse the interest of going out, so she pulled Atletico to stay at home with him and watch TV.

However, seeing the small Caribbean island devastated by the storm in the fox news footage on TV, her mood was inexplicably much better, and sure enough, happiness was compared.

In a good mood, the pillow that was pounded in her arms was finally relieved, and suddenly thought of something, Tang Jiayi opened her mouth and asked, "By the way, this time it won't be like the one three years ago when there was a power outage in the whole village, right?"

Hurricane Sandy at the end of October 2012 caused hundreds of deaths and more than $100 billion in economic losses to the United States, forcing the closure of the New York Stock Exchange and the United Nations headquarters, and even nearly affecting the presidential race.

This time, Hurricane Joaquin looks even more ferocious, and the wind speed continues to increase after the upgrade to a hurricane. Seeing it upgrade and become stronger again and again, the people of North America can't help but worry about it.

Although the hurricane is still raging in the Bahamas in the southeast of the United States, and the results of meteorological calculations indicate that the hurricane should not make landfall in the continental United States, the East Coast states have declared a state of emergency one after another, warning people to be aware of storms, power outages and road closures.

While the political axe department and the public are worried, the news media is excited, and now the TV is showing the report sent back by a Fox News reporter from Grand Bahama.

The Bahamas is a diving mecca made up of hundreds of coral islands and reefs, which are characterized by their low and flat terrain as aquatic creatures, which makes for an abundance of beach diving tours, but also a table full of cutlery in the event of a storm.

The highest elevation of the entire archipelago is only 73 meters, and there are no mountains that can stop the wind, so it is not surprising that there are winds that can blow people away.

Feeling a moment of silence for the tourists who ran to enjoy the blue sea and red sand, but were blocked in the hotel and couldn't go anywhere, Atletico shook his hand and said: "There should be nothing to do this time, at most it is just another heavy rain to test the conscience of the United States." It's a pity that those domestic companies that collectively went to Times Square to advertise, the attention of the American people was attracted by Joaquin, who cares about their advertising!"

Of course, Tang Jiayi knows the so-called "sewer conscience", and she also knows the fishing carnival on the Internet when Sandy ravaged New York, but as she looks at the sea again and again, she has long been used to it like most other netizens, and she is not surprised by the heavy rain and urban waterlogging. The first half of Atletico's sentence did not arouse her talk at all, but the second half of the sentence aroused her ridicule.

Tang Jiayi said that everyone understands people, so don't pretend to be confused, "Don't worry, your 'Outside the Wall Advertising and Look Inside the Wall' plan is going well, and there is no problem." ”

Atletico Madrid came to the United States this time, not all to enjoy the relatively round foreign moon, he also brought a lot of projects.

The first is to establish a VR technology application experience center in New York on the east coast and Los Angeles on the west coast. In addition to providing ordinary consumers with a trial experience of the N7/NB and even NT versions of Dreamwalker, they also showed artists and film and television workers a more professional combination of software and hardware for commercial versions, posing as a posture of bees to enter Hollywood, American dramas, and modern design.

It's just that they know very well in their hearts that these are just empty shows, and many of the equipment on display are "handmade limited editions", although the guests they invited from all walks of life expressed their admiration for their performance and effect, but there is no one who is willing to pay a unit price of 100,000 US dollars to take them away.

Atletico Madrid were prepared for this result, and in fact they opened these two experience stores with the same idea as those advertisements for a tour of Times Square, with the purpose of blooming outside the walls and incense inside the walls. And the actual situation is similar to what Tang Jiayi said, between the reports of various National Day activities, the news of "Bee VR Yang Fan went to sea and landed in the United States" is still quite eye-catching.

At this time, Zhang Xuyao, who was wearing pink panda pajamas, suddenly appeared in the living room, she only heard Tang Jiayi's last sentence, so she asked: "What is the advertisement outside the wall and the advertisement inside the wall?"

"It's a walk through Times Square. ”

"Oh!" Zhang Xuyao said in a long voice, she had already heard of the phenomenon of only broadcasting an advertisement once, and then taking pictures and sending them back to China to promote "xx products landing in Times Square in New York". The girl tilted her head, "The American media doesn't care about which advertisement is changed on the big screen in Times Square, and the domestic ones are in a hurry to report non-stop, and I don't know how much media public relations fees are charged." ”

Atletico laughed and said: "No way, once born and twice cooked, the first time I came to people, I thought it was strange to report it to you, and when the uproar came, of course people didn't bother to report it." Haha, if Chubby and his Sun Empire also come to Times Square to advertise, these media will rush to report even if they don't have travel expenses. ”

"Oops, I watched that "Interview" on the Internet just now, it's so ugly!" Sitting on the sofa next to Tang Jiayi, Zhang Xuyao glanced at the TV screen: "What's the point of watching the news all the time, change the channel!"

Born in 1983, as the youngest head of state in the world today, his fame is also increasing in the world, and his style, his movements, and his fruit fan attributes have become a topic of conversation.

Sony Pictures probably saw this trend and invested in the filming of "Interview", which made them fall into blood mold.

The violent reaction from Chubby's side certainly boosted the popularity of the film, and the hacker hacking of Sony Pictures before the film's release and the leakage of a large number of company and employee data sent the film to the top of the attention list. Now that the hackers did what they said, the theaters that had planned to release the film withdrew due to security concerns, and Sony Pictures could only broadcast the film in dozens of independent theaters and online platforms.

However, the bad thing is that this film released "under pressure" did not gain much good reputation, and the evaluation was not high, and the scale of the screening was naturally difficult to expand, and it could only lose money in the end.

shouted to change the channel, but when the remote control was stuffed into her hand, Zhang Xuyao felt bored after pressing it a few times, only to see her suddenly turn around and lie on the back of the sofa, look at Atletico and ask: "Brother, do you say that the United States has really mastered the hurricane switch?"

"Huh?"

"I was on the Internet over there just now, and I saw someone saying that Joaquin was originally going to log in to the eastern part of the United States, but Comrade Guanhai made a call to the HAARP base, and then the hurricane was rerouted to bypass the continental United States. ”

"Rumors, last time they said that Guanhai used HAARP to summon Hurricane Sandy in order to be re-elected. ”

However, it is clear that Atletico does not believe such a statement, "As far as I know, his sea viewing skills have not yet been completed, and he should not have the ability to summon and disperse storms." ”

"Flutter, why isn't it the baptism of the Holy Light and the Holy Spear?"

"Because the range is insufficient. ”

"Is it the lack of range of the holy lance, or is it the lack of range of the haarp?"

"It's not enough!" someone's face darkened.

"Meteorological weapons are a real thing, countries have done a lot of them before, but most of them are not very practical except for thermobaric bombs, and the United Nations has led the promotion of the Convention on the Prohibition of Meteorological Weapons, so countries have stopped doing it. When the weather forecast can be accurate to the hour or even a quarter of an hour, and the artificial rain will fall, these things may make a comeback. ”

The High Frequency Active Aurora Research Project (HAARP) in Alaska has the world's largest shortwave antenna array, officially designed to analyze and study the atmospheric ionosphere to improve communications and detection technology.

However, in the eyes of conspiracy theorists, these antennas are actually meteorological weapons secretly developed by the bacteria, believing that they can heat the upper-air atmosphere in a certain area in a short period of time, thus causing extreme weather and even earthquakes. This kind of statement has spread wildly on the Internet, and like "there are aliens in Area 51", it has become a "corroboration" that the United States has mastered black technology.

Area 51 in the Sierra Nevada is a secret testing ground for American bacteria, and many people suspect that the United States has captured aliens and imprisoned them, and attribute the rapid development of aerospace, electronics, materials and other technologies in the second half of the 20th century to the reverse study of alien spacecraft.

After this theory became popular, some film and game makers followed suit and added a map of Area 51 to their works: Megatron was shut down here, aliens attacked here, and there were a lot of X-Files events here. These dramas, in turn, further reinforce the existing impression that there are aliens in Area 51.

It was only in 2013 that Area 51 was officially recognized for the first time when a 355-page classified report expired and the ban was lifted. It turned out to be a research base for U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft decades ago, and it was chosen because of the rarity of people, the convenience of secrecy, and the fact that the dry lakebed in the area could also reduce the construction cost of the airport.

However, these explanations did not dispel the suspicions of UFO fans, but instead they regarded them as a stage victory, at least Area 51 did it, didn't it?

Then their focus shifted to the blacked-out part of the ciphertext, and they continued to inquire about it.

Hillary Clinton, who plans to run for president next year, specifically said that if she becomes president, she will declassify Area 51 and let the public know the truth, but she can't slip away.
