Chapter 498 I'm a chicken
"Xiao! I didn't expect you to really come!" Xiao Peng and Yali stopped the car and before they reached the gate of the West End Gymnasium, Tommy greeted them. "Just the two of you?"
Xiao Peng smiled: "Yes, it's better to come out and play with fewer people." Introducing, this is my girlfriend Alexandra, this is Thomas Johnson, but he prefers to be called Tommy the Clown. β
After the two met, Xiao Peng was puzzled and asked, "Tommy, you should be the busiest time now, why are you here?"
Tommy smiled, "I'm waiting for you." β
Xiao Peng was curious: "How do you know I'm here?"
Tommy shrugged: "Look around, don't you think your complexion is very eye-catching?"
Xiao Peng looked left and right, uh, really, 99.99% of the people who came were black, like Xiao Peng and Yali were really the most eye-catching in the crowd.
Tommy made a 'please' gesture: "Xiao, you two are so cool today!
Xiao Peng grinned: "Hehe, I guess you can say that, so I brought you a gift today." I didn't know you could pick me up, so I was in the car, you came just in time, go, and asked a few people to move with me. β
"Gift, what gift?" Tommy was puzzled, but still asked someone to follow Xiao Peng to the parking lot.
Xiao Peng was still driving the extended Cadillac of the Padgio. It's just that the back row is more like a small warehouse now. It's full of piles.
Tommy pouted: "Xiao, you use this car as a truck? β
Xiao Peng smiled: "Isn't the car just for people? Come on, move things down!"
Tommy saw the contents of the car clearly, and his eyes lit up: "Xiao, you are so generous!"
Xiao Peng waved his hand: "It's okay, you're welcome, it's nothing." β
In fact, Xiao Peng really didn't say nonsense, these gifts he brought were really nothing to him.
If these gifts of his are taken to China, I'm afraid no one really wants to ask for them, but when they come to the Stars and Stripes Country, they are treasures. Because he brought nothing else, it was the famous plum blossom brand sportswear, as well as pull back sneakersγγγγγγ
Xiao Peng and Ya Li are wearing exactly this thing now, with two big Chinese characters 'Huaxia' on their chests.
In China, many people may think that LO is explosive, but when it is abroad, it is fashionable and fashionable.
In fact, this 'plum blossom' sportswear is definitely a time-honored brand, and it is the first sportswear brand in China. The name comes from Grandpa Mao's "Qinyuan Spring-Yongmei". In the 70s, when China carried out 'table tennis diplomacy', the plum blossom sportswear was designated by the prime minister as the designated item for Chinese athletes, and established two classic colors: Chinese red and Shilin blue. That is, the color that Xiao Peng and Yali are wearing now.
In the 80s, the plum blossom sportswear climbed to the peak, Xu Haifeng wore the plum blossom sportswear to win the first gold medal in the Los Angeles Olympics, and then walked into the streets. At that time, the price of a set of plum blossom brand sportswear was equivalent to a month's salary of an ordinary worker at that time, and it was a veritable high-end product.
However, in the 90s, with the entry of European and American clothing brands such as Adinike into China, a new generation of local brands such as Li Ning also began to take off. These competitors have aggressive business strategies. In addition to providing equipment for athletes and sponsoring competitions, there is also a lot of advertising. The plum blossom sportswear was subject to the rigidity of the enterprise system, began to slowly wither, and finally the factory was directly shut down, and the right to use the plum blossom brand was also handed over to the employees, and the once smash hit plum blossom sportswear became a family workshop type product. It can only be produced and sold in small batches by some former employees who can't bear to see the glory pass away with the wind.
But since 2015, plum sportswear has re-entered people's field of vision. It is said that fashion is a reincarnation of 20 years, and the plum blossom sportswear that once exploded has now become a fashion brand. A set of genuine plum blossom sportswear costs around 1,000 RMB. When I arrived in the Stars and Stripes, I wanted to buy a plum blossom brand sportswear? The price of a set was more expensive than Adi's classic models! Tommy naturally knew the price, so he said that Xiao Peng was too generous.
But Xiao Peng is very generous? Definitely not! He's very ghostly! Genuine plum blossom sportswear can be bought and worn by yourself, but as for giving it away? You have to buy cheap knockoffs! Aren't you called 'plum blossoms'? I buy 'five plum blossoms', and ours spends more! The price is only one-fifth of the plum blossom brand!
That's right, cottage, that's it!
Xiao Peng bought a bunch of these things when he was in China, and he was going to get them to the Stars and Stripes Country to give them away, but he never had the opportunity to send them, and now he finally found an opportunity, so he sent them out quickly, and Tommy gave him a ticket to watch the dance in the front row, how can he say that he also wants to express it, right?
Tommy took Xiao Peng and the two of them directly to the backstage players' lounge with these gifts, and after seeing the gifts brought by Xiao Peng, the scene exploded instantly, and those dancers shouted excitedly one by one, and their morale was high.
Xiao Peng likes to see this group of foreigners who have never seen the world.
A girl with bleached and dyed colorful hair and a 'ditch braid' was very excited, and directly changed into a set of white sportswear, with an open arms, wearing only a black bandeau inside, and white and red pull-back shoes, plus her black complexion, not to mention, it was really good-looking.
The girl was not pretentious, she directly hugged Xiao Peng and kissed Xiao Peng fiercely on the face: "Sir, I love your gift to death, I will wear it to the competition tonight! You may not know, I love you Huaxia to death, you see, you see." After speaking, he directly lifted his clothes down and showed Xiao Peng his back, Xiao Peng looked at it, a little dumbfounded, only to see her back, tattooed in Chinese 'I am a chicken'.
Xiao Peng felt the cold sweat on his head running down: "Uh, do you know what this sentence means?"
The girl nodded: "Of course, my nickname is 'Wormwood Grouse', which is why I got such a tattoo." β
Xiao Peng was speechless, this wormwood grouse Xiao Peng knows, it is the largest grouse in North America, not good at flying, but good at walking and digging in search of food, the male bird has a huge meat-crown and beautiful bright feathers, the biggest feature is that the nostrils and claws are covered with feathers to adapt to cold weather, it is quite common in the western part of the Stars and Stripes and Western Canada, it can be said that as long as there is a tridendron in the place where it is distributed. One girl used it as her nicknameγγγγγγ Uh, don't say, the hair color is quite similar to the skin tone.
But sister, this Chinese character is broad and profound, this sentence really does not mean this! You really come to Huaxia to let people see your tattoo, be careful that someone comes directly to you to inquire about itγγγγγγ
Alas, it's also very helpless to talk about this, with the rise of China, Chinese culture is becoming more and more popular with foreigners, especially foreigners who like tattoos, and tattooing Chinese characters on the body has become a trend!
The most well-known may be the former football superstar 'heartthrob' Beckham's wild grass Chinese character tattoo, ------ 'life and death are in the sky'!
This is the same as what Chinese people like to tattoo on their bodies in English and Arabic, for foreigners, they can't read Chinese, and looking at Chinese will feel like looking at patterns, and the recognition is very slow and can't be understood, so they think it will seem high.
Mystery, internationalization, this seems to be what everyone in the world is looking for.
In particular, the people of the Stars and Stripes are particularly fond of tattoos, and there is a double cream pizza parlor in the Stars and Stripes that launches a tattoo ranking every year, and almost all the tattoos at the top of the list every year are Chinese character tattoos.
Well, this is an authoritative list, don't look at the pizzeria launched------ it is said that because people often have to tattoo for a long time when they get tattoos, they are bored and hungry, so they like to order pizza takeout to eat, and over time, this plus the 'double cream' pizzeria has launched a ranking to recommend to customers where the tattoo is fast and good, and has become an authority in the tattoo industry of the Stars and Stripes.
Even the former president of the Stars and Stripes, Ao Guanhai, has two Chinese characters tattooed on the back, 'Fugui'. The tattoo artist who tattooed him was called Jun Qian, because this tattoo was also popular, and now in the eyes of the people of the Star Spangled country, the Chinese characters he tattooed have the effect of enlightening and manifesting the spiritγγγγγγ
But there are also many people who have Chinese character tattoos on their bodies that make people laugh and cry.
For example, Mike Anglo, known as the fastest guitarist in the world, has the Chinese character 'Shadowless Hand' tattooed on his right arm. Well, 'Shadowless Hand' is his nickname, and that's not too much.
The tattoo on Stephen Amell's (that is, Green Arrow) 'rat ginger and Yao pig' is confusing, such an irrelevant four words, two animals, a plant and a surname, what is the meaning hidden here? Is it to make him as agile as a mouse? as spicy as ginger? as tall as Yao Ming?
and Justin Timberlake, the little king of music who did a halftime performance at this year's Super Bowl. The right abdomen is tattooed with 'Climate, Water and Fire', the left arm is tattooed with 'Skating', and the back is tattooed with 'Sin'. Uh, are you afraid that people won't know that you take drugs?
Britney Spears has a tattoo of the word 'odd', but because of the poor craftsmanship of the tattoo master, the word 'odd' was tattooed into the word 'Dake'γγγγγ
Captain America Chris Evan has a 'Clan' tattoo on his arm, and Megans Fox has a 'force' tattoo on the back of his neckγγγγγγ
The most awesome thing should be Justin Bieber's Chinese character tattoo------ 'cowardice'! Dude, do you know what this word means?
These are the ones that have the rich and famous. There are even more strange tattoos for those who don't have money.
Along the way, Xiao Peng saw someone tattooed with 'widow', someone tattooed 'mother', and someone tattooed 'diabetes'γγγγγγ
UH, IT'S LIKE CHINESE PEOPLE DON'T KNOW FOREIGN LANGUAGES AND GET TATTOOS AND DRESS RANDOMLY, XIAO PENG HAS SEEN TOO MANY SITUATIONS LIKE THIS: GIRLS HAVE 'I AM A HORE' (I'M A 'CHICKEN') WRITTEN ON THEIR CLOTHES, 'I CAN BE A PIECE OF' AND SO ON.
Even the famous Fu Mingxia once wore English full of swear words, and Guo Jingjing once wore an inappropriate English T-shirt to attend important places, not to mention ordinary people?
(Yang once had a friend with a beautiful Arabic tattoo on her arm, and Yang asked her what that meant.) She said that she didn't know, she just thought it was good-looking, and then Xiao Peng found someone to translate the meaning of that sentence------ eat and sleep and beat Doudou. Uh, you win!)
