Shi Lei's parents stepped forward and, together with Colin and Emily, launched red envelopes for the group of bear children present. Each red envelope contains a complete set of Midi currency, from the smallest steel hammer to the 100-dollar Franklin, and there is one for each denomination.

This is the New Year's money for these children. After hearing the meaning of Shi Lei's New Year's money, these bear children also took the red envelopes at the suggestion of their parents.

Soon this happy Spring Festival party is over. The next day, everyone packed up and rushed to Los Angeles together, and at this time, Shi Lei's Business Star finally came in handy again.

They set off relatively late and staggered the Spring Festival parade, which was not Shi Lei's goal.

For a group of elders, it is not very suitable to go to see such a parade, there are too many people, and the delay is too long, and it is not good to take a good rest.

Their goal was to hold a Chinese New Year temple fair in Chinatown.

It is rare that there are a lot of real authentic domestic snacks here, and there are many more traditional domestic skills to show.

For example, there are dough kneaders, and by the way, there are candy paintings, paper-cuts, candy blowers, and traditional juggling, where they perform on top of the vat and carry traditional projects such as raising big flags.

However, the most attractive thing for them is the ancient color trick performance, which is a master invited by the local literary and artistic group to communicate, and there are only three or four real masters in China.

Shi Lei: They cherish being able to watch this performance live. After standing there without blinking, and watching the whole performance, they continued to stroll around with some unfinished business.

Of course, before leaving, you must give this master a warm applause and applause.

This ancient trick is not as easy as it seems on the surface. Although the master looked thin on the stage, he was carrying seventy or eighty pounds of props to perform on stage.

Let's just conjure up the tank of goldfish at the end. Coupled with the tank full of water, the weight must be dozens of catties. Ordinary people, if you ask him to stand there with such a fish tank, he may not be able to stick to the time of this performance.

What's more, like this master, to be able to lift weights lightly, whether it is sitting, lying and walking, or even jumping or somersaults, you can't see at all, what kind of kung fu does it take?

It is said that this thing has requirements for the actor's figure itself, and it must be the kind of fan-faced figure with wide shoulders and thin waist, so that there can be space under the coat.

When practicing, you have to carry 180 pounds of things to stand on the pile. There are really few people who can endure this hardship now.

After watching the wonderful performances, a variety of authentic snacks must not be missed. Basically, those authentic snacks that are common in China can be seen here.

This is not surprising, there is a team with the highest combat effectiveness in China, which is maintaining the city clean, so the survival status of these food stall owners is a bit complicated, and those who can survive are those experienced veterans of struggle.

However, Midi's side did not develop such a strong combat team, so many people went abroad to continue their careers.

See all kinds of fried pancakes on the streets of Los Angeles. It's not surprising that there are food stalls that make pancakes and fruits, and it is said that these people are doing quite well in their careers.

They earn authentic American knives, and their income is good in the local area of Midi. Not to mention after returning to China. It's no worse than the wages of many senior white-collar workers.

And don't think that street food will make people look down on it. They sell hot dogs next door, and he's a Michelin-starred chef.

Of course, these chefs are not opened by the hotel and can't get mixed up. I went to the streets to make these fast foods, but purely to find the true meaning of food in street food, and I prefer this process of face-to-face communication with diners. Enjoy that kind of direct recognition.

It's like the chef in Alissa's Ranch who likes to make barbecues. In the past, they all worked in Michelin-starred hotels in Paris, France, and cooked all kinds of exquisite French meals, but now they have a rough campfire barbecue. It's not the same interest.

The whole family is indispensable in the middle of many food stalls. I picked something I was interested in and tasted it, and I took two bites of this and a whole bunch of that, and I quickly filled my stomach.

Including the old man, one person took a string of rock sugar gourds. While eating this power to help digest it, I walked to the theater in Chinatown.

Another important purpose today is to come to the theater to see the performance. During the Spring Festival every year, the country will send condolence performance groups to come here to send warmth to the Chinese, local Chinese groups, responsible for organizing venues and audiences, and so on.

Thanks to Shi Lei and the old man Huang together, they were able to have the opportunity to enter the venue to watch this performance. Old Man Huang's influence in Chinatown is also very great, and it can be said that in the China world, he is a character who can be unimpeded by brushing his face.

When there was such a performance, the local group sent an invitation letter to Mr. Huang early, and when he learned that the old man was going to bring his relatives and friends to participate together, the organizer didn't say a word, and set aside a few good seats in the front row for Shi Lei and them.

After consulting the old man, he arranged them all together. Old Man Huang no longer went to the front row and sat with many important people.

Every time there is such an opportunity, the local Tang people will be very enthusiastic, so this seat is not as easy to find as expected.

Shi Lei, aren't they going to have to lose the old man, but this light is called a righteous one. It's all your own family, so you don't have to be polite about such a trivial matter.

There must be no shortage of famous actors who can follow and participate in this kind of condolence performance of great significance. Basically, there are a lot of big names who can reach the level of the Spring Festival Gala, and the others are all well-known figures.

Shi Lei: The ones they are relatively unfamiliar with are all semi-professionals contributed by the local Tang community. The party itself is a bit of a party, so you can't let the artists who come from China specialize in beauty.

There are two hosts, who are the leading names of local Chinese TV stations, and there are also several household names from China. test

Considering the composition of the Tang people here, many of them are more classic shows, and there are also many traditional acrobatics.

More of them are those songs that were very popular in the last century, and a few Cantonese songs. It is also considered that there are many compatriots from the south here.

The shows are very exciting, Shi Lei and several of them are also on the scene for the first time, enjoying the performances of these celebrities, this feeling is definitely very different from squatting in front of the screen.

After the performance, Shi Lei, who was a little excited, cheekily ran up and took a photo with many famous actors. On the premise of not delaying people's rest, I also seized the time to find a few favorite big names to help sign a name.

This is still when I saw that the enthusiasm of the audience was very high, and the big names stayed to meet the needs of some of the audience.

After the end, Shi Lei and Laura went to live in their parents' house. I had to catch a flight early the next morning. New York Fashion Week is about to begin.

New York Fashion Week is held twice a year, once for the one Laura is going to participate in now, for the autumn and winter fashion week of that year, which is held in February, and there is also a spring and summer fashion week for the following year, which is held in September.

It's fitting for Laura to be part of this fashion week. Among her recent designs, there are several leather clothes that will definitely be put to the present, and the other clothes are more in line with the theme.

Every fashion week attracts more than 230,000 visitors, and that's because the major brands only invite big buyers. Well-known industry insiders, journalists from various media outlets, and other celebrities from all walks of life entered the case.

These costume demonstrations are not open to the public. But it will still bring nearly $2 billion in revenue to New York. It can be seen that the influence of fashion week is great.

Laura's work launch this time will be held together with Ms. Diane's eponymous brand. In the same venue, even the models used are the same people.

Although this is already the launch of Laura's independent personal brand, it feels like it. It's still a bit of a deck under Ms. Diane's hand.

However, it is good to enjoy the shade with her back against the tree, and Laura has borrowed the light of Lady Diane again. In fact, Laura's brand operates independently, and Ms. Diane is willing to carry her back. Laura, of course, has to appreciate it.

In the preliminary preparations, such an advantage is revealed. Whether it is the layout of the venue, or the arrangement of the models, etc., these aspects save Laura's big things.

Ms. Diane had already arranged the layout of the venue, and after looking at it, Laura found that the setting of the stage, as well as the placement of the auditorium, etc., were very suitable, and she did not need to make any other adjustments to put it into use directly.

As for models, Laura is not going to engage in underwear launches like Victoria's Secret Angels, and she doesn't need those supermodels with different styles.

The temperament of these existing models is also very harmonious, so Laura also does not have to worry about this. You just need to talk to the makeup artist and let them draw the feeling they want.

And Laura's works have long been brought by Maggie. He was accompanied by several high-level tailors from several ateliers, and several high-level embroiderers.

They came to ensure that these works can present themselves in their most perfect state on the spot. For example, if necessary, adjust some details of the clothes according to the model's figure.

There is no way to do this, after all, it is a ready-to-wear garment, and it is not tailor-made. There is also a gap between the figures, and Laura is just based on the figure of the average model, and the finished product must be slightly adjusted.

Generally speaking, these models are not the thinnest, only thinner. Although there are more and more calls for models to liberate themselves, to be natural and beautiful, and not to be deliberately thin.

But it is obvious that this situation is still not popular among models, and many models will still use guò diets and other methods to control their figures.

Laura was busy combing through her work, and Shi Lei was not idle, he needed to make sure that the live performers he had contacted before could be in place on time.

Music is also an essential thing for a show. (To be continued......) R1292
