Chapter 365: This photo is a little familiar
People who can sit in this position at such a young age naturally have their own extraordinary. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info I don't know if I really like it, or if I deliberately go along with it, in short, under Xie Wenliang's intentional mobilization, as these topics of interest to both parties unfold, the tension between Liu La and Chen Long slowly disappeared, and finally completely relaxed.
When the three of them were chatting, Mr. Xie also sat next to him, but he rarely spoke, more often he drank a cup of tea, listening to two young people and a not-so-young person talking about these scandals or anecdotes in the entertainment industry, although he was not interested, but he was not bored.
At first, the three of them chatted together, but gradually when the topic came to some international disputes, or some problems encountered by Chinese people overseas, Liu La couldn't keep up with their train of thought. After all, Liu La is young, and it is understandable that he does not have so much insight and insights from these two people.
It didn't sound interesting, and Liu La's attention naturally shifted, from the conversation with the two of them to one of the walls in the teahouse. Naturally, the walls are not very pretty, and what really attracts him is the few photographs pasted on the walls, both new and old.
There are more than a dozen photos, and the protagonists in them are all old man Xie An, and the people who stand next to the old man and take a group photo are all extremely familiar and stirring up the world. Counting from left to right, the first photo in the first row is a young man shaking hands with former U.S. President Jimmy Carter for a photo.
The second one is more familiar, in a grassy courtyard, the old man is holding a champagne glass and touching a friend. There are two friends, these two look very similar, look familiar, old Bush on the left, little Bush on the right.
Further down there are all kinds of big names, each of which is particularly familiar, and each of which is scary, including the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the Director-General of the World Health Organization, and so on. Liu La even saw a photo of the old man standing under the Tiananmen Tower in Beijing and taking a photo with Deng Taizong.
Looking at these photos, Liu La's heart was shocked, Hongmen is Hongmen in the end, even if it is already hidden, the impact on this world is still everywhere. It's just that in the past, this influence was more upright and superficial, but now it is hidden in the depths and is not enough for outsiders.
Liu La believes that in Xie An's identity, these photos are not hung on the wall for pretending to be forced or showing. Moreover, the third floor of this teahouse is also closed to the public, and only Hongmen's own people, or people like Liu La and Chen Long who have received invitations, can come up. Liu La estimates that the most important role of these photos is a means of negotiation, once Hongmen negotiates with other companies, he will bring people to this place, and the other party will definitely weaken immediately when he sees these photos.
There is no one who is deep in this routine.
But what makes Liu La most curious is that these photos are placed in the middle and are the easiest to find. Unlike the others, there are no prominent people in this photo, just an ordinary family photo. In the photo, there is a family of three, and it can be seen that the man should be Xie An when he was young, and the woman next to him, as well as a beautiful little girl of two or three years old and crystal clear in the woman's arms, is undoubtedly his wife and daughter.
For some reason, seeing the photo of Xie An's wife, Liu La faintly felt a little familiar, but he was very sure that he had never seen this person, so he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
Anyway, being idle is idle, so Liu La asked casually: "Old man, the photo behind is a family photo of your family, it has been looking like it for some years." Are your wife and daughter also in the U.S. now? ā
Because I heard everyone call Xie Lao an old man, so Liu La also called him that. He asked such a question, purely out of idleness, and had nothing to talk about. But he never expected that the moment he said this, everyone's faces suddenly changed. Xie Wenliang, who was chatting with Long Chen, suddenly stopped his voice, Old Man Xie's own hand holding the teacup also shook to himself, and Xie Zhen's eyes were as big as cows and glared at him fiercely.
Their reaction made Liu La immediately understand that he must have committed some unknown taboo. But after thinking about it, Liu La didn't figure out what was wrong with her, so she had to stop squeaking and wait for things to develop.
About six or seven seconds later, the old man spoke, but he did not respond to Liu La's question, but changed the subject and said: "Hello Mr. Xiaoyanagi, I can't hide it, old man, I really admire your name for a long time, when I saw you snatching the Olympic torch back from the hands of the gringos on the news, the old man slapped you." Yes, it's a man, and there aren't many young people like you anymore. ā
Liu La never expected that Old Man Xie paused for a long time, and finally praised himself, he couldn't help but be a little flattered, and hurriedly said politely: "Old man, you praise it, and in the eyes of others, I may be worth mentioning, but compared with your Hongmen heroes, I am too insignificant, and I don't deserve to be on the table." ā
Liu La is also telling the truth, indeed, compared to the contributions made by the heroes of Hongmen, he is a little insignificant.
For his words, the old man smiled, did not continue the topic, but picked up a chess piece and asked Liu La: "Xiaoyou has any research on Go?" Would you like to have a game with me, an old man? ā
"Of course, it's my honor to play against Mr. Xie. But my chess skills are a bit trendy, and you have to let me, old man. Liu La naturally agreed.
"Well said, well said." The old man took another sip of tea.
When the others saw the old man and Liu La start to play chess, they stopped paying attention to them and resumed what they were doing.
After Liu La came to this life, he learned a little bit of Go from his grandfather Liu Chuan Yuancai, and his chess strength was naturally not good, so he could only barely fool the layman. But who asked the old man to bring it up, so he stubbornly agreed.
Liu La held the black piece, the old man held the white piece, and the black son went first, and after thinking about it for a few seconds, Liu La put down the first chess piece. In fact, the ancient Chinese game of Go paid attention to the white first, but after it was introduced to Japan, it was changed to the black first. If you don't want to admit it, you have to admit that Japanese Go is the originator of modern Go, and it has little to do with our ancient Go, which has basically changed, so now the international regulations are also set by Japan, and the game of Go must be played by Kuroko first, and it must be complied with in professional competitions.
As soon as one person fell, Liu La and Xie An began to play against each other. While playing the game, Liu La was also involuntarily distracted thinking, why did Old Man Xie's wife look so familiar? And what went wrong with what I just said? (To be continued.) )
