New Year's Day was not a day that the Chinese and Chinese valued at first, but regarded him as the date of the beginning of the new year.

It's just that with the development of the New Life Movement, the Chinese people have been forced by the government to force them several times, coupled with the reason why the youth have a strong acceptance of new things, and they have become accustomed to nature, and they have slowly accepted this imported product, and this festival has also been brought to all places in the world where there are Chinese people.

Today is not only New Year's Day, but also the day of the turn of the old and new centuries, this day no longer belongs to the Chinese alone, but people all over the world are paying attention to and celebrating the arrival of this day, the 20 th century is an era of vicissitudes, an era of great changes, and an era of disasters, and many people hope that the new century can have a different situation.

In the manor, he used a satellite phone to call his mother on the plane, and learned that they had crossed the Pacific Ocean to the sky over the Bohai Sea, and officially entered the territory of China, and learned that everything was fine, and George did not say much to his mother.

After hanging up the phone, he went upstairs and changed into a red festive suit that his mother had asked the tailor to make for him in advance before George returned to Los Angeles, and rarely put on a red tie.

Two Cadillacs in front of the villa guarded the Bentley, George walked out of the villa and turned his head slightly, glanced around, and went straight to the car that was opened by Arthur early and waited for George's car.

As the doors closed, Arthur returned to his driver's seat, and the three cars slowly drove out of the manor in turn, along the Marbury Ocean Drive in the direction of Chinatown.

When I entered the city of Los Angeles, the important streets and squares were already crowded with people who were coming together in twos and threes waiting to cross the era.

Countless garbage cans and cleaning trucks are constantly shuttling back and forth around the various garbage cans, cleaning up the garbage thrown away by the celebratory crowd when they spontaneously raise their glasses to celebrate because of the long waiting time, so that the whole city will not be a sea of garbage in the new day.

On the way, George saw the Night Kings, the "cancers" of the city living in darkness, coming out of the underground through sewers or other exits, bringing the gifts of the New Century celebration given to them by the city government and various charitable organizations into their living quarters through the entrances and exits.

Today's people are also wearing relatively clean clothes, although they still have a peculiar smell on their bodies, but in this time of national celebration, no one will go back to care about them, and no one will provoke them, this is a harmonious day, at least in George's opinion, I didn't see that there are countless times more policemen on the street than usual, all patrolling with guns, and once there is an emergency, it can be solved quickly.

When George arrived in Chinatown, the grand lion dance was coming to an end, and George didn't care much about it, the lion dance is held in Chinatown every year, but this year it is bigger and grander because of the cross-century reasons.

Because of the solemnity, many Chinese people from all over the United States rushed to Los Angeles to watch and participate in the New Year's Eve event.

Walking slowly along the stone pavement of Chinatown, I don't know when several huge display screens were erected on the side of the street, on which the scenes of people from all over the world celebrating the coming new century were transmitted by various television stations.

George paused under one of the screens, where the crowd of people in Tiananmen Square was playing, waiting for the dawn of the new century.

Through the screen, George can clearly see that the capital at this time is far less modern than that of later generations, and still has the breath left over from countless histories.

Even he saw through the screen the messy courtyards, the hutongs that have not been repaired for an unknown amount of time, the new landmark of the capital, Wangfujing, and so on.

This is a capital that he has never seen before, a capital that is more historical than what he has seen in later generations, but this capital may not be preserved for a long time.

As the wheels of history roll forward, the process of modernization continues to accelerate, and now all the beautiful scenes will become memories and history for future generations to understand and reference.

Listening to the people who were also standing under the screen talking, George just had a faint smile on his face and turned to leave, if there is time to go for a trip, it is better to go now, in the later stage, when China enters the era of national development, everything will be different, and the scene that exists in my mind I don't know when it will become another scene.

When I found the teacher, the time had pointed to ten o'clock at night, and there were more and more people in Chinatown, and the shops at this time were non-stop, and the lights were everywhere, and George even saw that many Americans did not go to the Los Angeles City Hall Square and several other squares for New Year's Eve activities, but actually came to experience Chinese festivals and activities, and he couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene.

George had a brief chat with the teacher, and after a few words, he was pulled by the teacher to Sihai Building, which is a restaurant with a history of nearly 100 years.

It was destroyed several times in the hands of the Americans, and each time the Chinese who had worked hard rebuilt it again on the ruins with their hands, which witnessed the development and changes of the Chinese in the United States, and also witnessed the history of Chinatown.

Counting the Sikai Building, it was full of people as far as the eye could see, and many tables and chairs were temporarily added to the Sikai Building, which used to be empty, so that all the guests who came could sit down.

Because George used to study with Yang Weiye, the people in Sihailou were no strangers to him, and after seeing Yang Weiye and George, they all greeted him one after another, George went straight into the dish outlet and held the dishes on the tray in his hand, and sent it to the guests after seeing the table number clearly, which provoked the service staff of Sihailou to laugh and scold George for being the boss and becoming a successful person, and still thinking about their meager salary, he came to them to steal their jobs.

Yang Weiye didn't say anything about this scene, but followed George to do it, he knew that George was expressing to him that he didn't want to see the people he wanted to introduce, this was a silent protest that George was expressing to him.

Yang Weiye also knew that although George belonged to Chinatown and was taken for granted by the people here, he had a natural resistance to those who were always hiding their heads and tails behind the scenes, and were unwilling to expose themselves to the forefront.

If it weren't for him, George would have been able to unite some of the most prestigious people in California to fight for some power and welfare in this state that is much more open and inclusive than other places.

It's just that those people pulled him into the Chinese Mutual Aid Association and made him the front person, and then tied George, a student, into this group in disguise, which put George in a dilemma.

After discovering that George didn't want to follow him to meet the so-called big names among the Chinese, Yang Weiye did not force it, but slowly walked towards the upstairs party venue.

ps: Yesterday's annual meeting was really sad, others drew cash, I drew bicycles, is this for me to carry out green environmental protection campaigns this year?
