Chapter 381 Departure
"Lawyer Wilson, the video has been sent to your email. How about you take a look?" asked Xiao Peng holding his phone.
"Mr. Xiao, wait a minute. "There was a keypad tapping on the phone. After a while: "The shooting is crystal clear. It's okay now, it's a real hammer again. Mr. Xiao, using this video to sue their hotel group plus Embiid for personal infringement of other people's property, this is good, our winning rate is one point greater, and we have another powerful weapon in our hands. Are you saying Embiid is stupid? How could he do such a thing?"
Xiao Peng shrugged: "How do I know, I really think that Huaxia people are easy to bully?
George Wilson laughed and said, "Mr. Xiao, I don't know about other Huaxia people, but I have now come to the conclusion, that is, don't mess with you." β
Xiao Peng said helplessly: "We Huaxia people don't cause trouble, but we are definitely not afraid of things." Alright, Attorney Wilson, the rest is up to you. You have something to email me. Usually my phone is turned off. β
George Wilson asked, "Mr. Shaw, where are you going now?"
"It was a game out. Xiao Peng said.
"Then I wish Mr. Xiao a happy journey. I'll take care of the rest!" said George Wilson.
Xiao Peng hung up the phone and said to Yang Meng on the side: "Dude, what are you doing there?
"Wait a minute, I'm working on the manual. Yang Meng replied.
Yang Meng was sitting on the engine cover, holding a few small black bags and looking at them one by one. Xiao Peng was curious and looked over to see that Yang Meng had bought N digital cameras.
"What are you doing?" asked Xiao Peng, puzzled.
Yang Meng said: "Didn't you lose a digital camera? I want to buy one for you, but I went to pick and choose, there are so many exquisite colors, what different brands, what card machines, automatic cameras, telephoto digital cameras, fixed-focus digital cameras, SLR digital cameras, etc., and countless kinds of lenses, I can't figure it out." β
Xiao Peng asked curiously: "Then what camera did you buy? Don't tell me that you bought a card machine, then you might as well shoot with your mobile phone." β
Yang Meng laughed: "No matter what our photography level is, do you have to be professional when you buy a camera?" You have to buy a DSLR, but I didn't expect that there are so many kinds of SLRs, and there are different lenses, what standard lenses, short-throw lenses, and telephoto lensesγγγγγγ I've taken it all. Listening to him explain that everything is very important, and in the end I bought such a lot of equipment, and now that I come to my senses, did I let him fool me? It seems that he threw a lot of money. β
XIAO PENG LOOKED DOWN, GOOD GUY, WHAT SONY A9 MIRRORLESS, NIKON D850, CANON G1 X MARK III., are all new good cameras, good cameras mean expensive prices, and then look aside, there are a lot of lenses like long guns and short guns, and they are all good goods with a lot of prices: "Dude, you are throwing money to play, do you know how to play photography?"
Yang Meng was not happy when he heard it: "Won't I be able to study? How can I say that people should have a hobby? I have decided, from today onwards, I will play photography." β
"Poof. Xiao Peng sprayed: "Dude, haven't you heard a passage? As the saying goes, 'Fishing is poor for three years, and playing with literature and playing ruined your life; the motorcycle is a pit, and photography cannot be touched, once you learn to chase rabbits, you will embark on the road of no return! If you fall in love with an eagle one day, look at the sky with tears in your eyes, and play with pigeons, you will have to go crazy, change the car, change the boat, and change your face, and change the whole family to be crazy." It's best not to touch these things, because touching them is equivalent to burning money and time. You still play photography, buddy, don't make me laugh, okay?"
Yang Meng was anxious when he heard this: "Damn, I look down on people, what you said about 'fishing', 'dog and rabbit', 'falling in love with the eagle', and 'changing the car', have we all touched it? Besides, even if I don't know how to take pictures, these devices look tall when I mention them, don't they? At that time, it wasn't that we were crazy, it was the girl who saw us crazy!"
Xiao Peng covered his face: "You can think of anything on your sister, you bought this bunch of things to pretend to be forced? Don't waste time, go quickly." What time is it? Mother's Road beckons to us again. β
Yang Meng threw the things back into the car: "Dude, let's go!"
Looking at the way Yang Meng threw the pile of photographic equipment, Xiao Peng was even more sure, and said that he bought a camera for himself? This bag!
The two drove straight to the Art Museum of Chicago, and Yang Meng's shout came from the intercom: "Dude, what are we doing in the library?"
Xiao Peng said: "Take the camera, follow me!"
Yang Meng didn't understand why, followed Xiao Peng with a camera, and the two arrived at the opposite Adams Street entrance, where there was a small and inconspicuous sign, and if you didn't pay attention to it, you really couldn't see it. However, after paying attention to it, I found that this small sign is a bit interesting, and there are various commemorative posts about Route 66 posted on the pole body, which are all souvenirs left by people who have walked this road. Someone next to him sells commemorative posters here, one dollar a piece, and Xiao Peng also bought two as a souvenir.
Xiao Peng said to Yang Meng: "Take a few photos, let's go." β
"What is this?" Yang Meng asked.
"This is the starting point of Route 66, so taking a few photos as a souvenir is also a ritual, isn't it?" Xiao Peng said.
Yang Meng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took a photo of Xiao Peng, and asked Xiao Peng to take a picture of himself, this time it was the turn of the two to take a group photo, and they were dumbfounded, and finally used a selfie stick and a mobile phone to complete it.
"I'll just say, if you buy these cameras, you're throwing money to play!" Xiao Peng teased.
"I'm too lazy to get a tripod, buddy, let's go, there's no time to waste. Yang Meng coughed a few times and returned to the car.
Looking at Yang Meng's embarrassed appearance, Xiao Peng laughed and looked at the GPS: "Okay, don't ink, it's not too early, let's go along Route 66 to Joliette for one night, about sixty kilometers away." We're in a hurry, so we can go to the visitor center and buy some souvenirs. After speaking, he started the car, and Yang Meng followed behind.
"Joliette? Yang Meng said.
"This is the fifth-largest city in Illinois, with a population of 80,000, and belongs to Will County. It is also one of the fastest-growing cities in Illinois. Xiao Peng thought for a while and added: "You definitely don't know this, tell you what you can understand." You watched the American drama "Prison Break"? It was filmed in Joliette Prison. β
"Huh, then I must go and see it! I'm going to experience what it's like to break out of prison. Yang Mengle said.
", when we get there, let's go to the visitor center, find a good place to stay, then go get something to eat, and we'll go to Joliette Prison tomorrow morning. Xiao Peng said.
Speaking from the heart, this No. 66 Highway feels really average when driving, after all, it has existed for nearly a century, and the road conditions are very average, but this road is open to feelings, isn't it?
Joliette is a very special place, because it is the river port of the Michigan Canal, so there are many iron bridges in the city, and they are all old-fashioned drawbridges. Just like in the movie, when a boat passes underneath, the iron bridge is pulled up, and when the boat passes, the bridge is lowered to allow cars to pass.
This kind of opening and closing bridge is rare in China, there have been a few in Tianjin, Zhuhai and other places, almost all of them are left in China a hundred years ago, and then with the change of the times, except for a few such as Tianjin Liberation Bridge still maintain the opening function, the rest of the bridge is demolished and scrapped. All disappeared in the long river of history.
But in the Stars and Stripes, this type of drawbridge is still very common. And almost all of them are old bridges from almost 100 years ago. It is good photographic material.
But to be honest, such bridges are kept for taking pictures, and there are still fewer such bridges in China. All kinds of inconvenience, it takes more than ten minutes to lift once, causing traffic jams instantly. And it's expensive to build, and it's expensive to maintain. It's really not for the current era.
In those days, the technical conditions could not build a high bridge, so we could only build this kind of drawbridge, but now? The No. 2 and No. 3 piers of the French Millau Bridge are 245 meters and 220 meters high respectively, and the piers of the Longtan River Bridge in China are 178 meters.
The advantage of the traffic jam is that Yang Meng is holding the camera like a pretending criminal, watching him wear this vest and a baseball cap, and then looking at those professional equipment, he really looks like a photographer. Anyway, it's a traffic jam, and there are really a lot of people who ask him to help take pictures. There is a bridge as the background, and there is a big one with Xiao Peng's car as the background, Yang Meng is really happy about it, and even Xiao Peng was caught by him as a model and took N photos.
Xiao Peng slapped his forehead, it was over, and another one was destroyed, photography is poisonousγγγγγγ
The bridge was finally opened, and the traffic continued. As soon as Xiao Peng sat back in the car, he heard Yang Meng's excited voice on the walkie-talkie: "Dude, this photography is very fun! You see how beautiful the bridge is just now? β
Xiao Peng coughed dryly: "Brother, if you want to say anything, just say it." β
Yang Meng smiled: "Don't you know what to do? Why don't we play all over the world? What kind of city, forest, ocean, Antarctica, Arctic and Arctic all go to play, I will be your photographer, you will be a model for me, how about we play a whole circle?"
Xiao Peng coughed dryly: "Dude, are you crazy? β
"Well, even if I'm hot for three minutes, don't you want to see everywhere? When we go out, we might know what we can do. Do you think, didn't we find Opal when we were playing in Kangaroo Country?" Yang Meng said eloquently.
Xiao Peng thought for a while: "Okay, what you said also makes sense. Let's talk about the future in the future, aren't we on the way to play now? Let's finish this Route 66 first!"
"Okay, that's it, you're my model all the way, where is that damn visitor center?" Yang Meng sounded in a good mood.
Xiao Peng was not in such a good mood: "Damn, the visitor center is closed." Well, let's find a place to spend the night!"
"It's all to blame for the broken bridge just now. Yang Meng said indignantly.
"That's not what you said just now, didn't you mean Hashimi?"
"Delaying our time is breaking the bridge!"
