Late at night on February 7, 2016, the UPS Express Hub at Louisville Airport in Kentucky, USA, was still extremely busy. As UPS's largest air freight hub www.biquge.info more than 90 planes gather here late every night. In just three hours, a plane took off and landed every two minutes. Every day, Hewlett-Packard airlifts damaged computers from all over the world here. The equipment will be repaired by 60 technicians at the UPS logistics center before being immediately removed from the airport.

Eric Wang, the director of the transit center, has been working here for three years, and at this moment he is talking to his family in his office, and some small changes in the airport outside the window have not caught his attention in the slightest. Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve of the Chinese lunar calendar, and of course BJ time is already the first day of the new year. The 35-year-old man, who grew up in a small Chinese mainland town, is not in a good mood now because he can't go home for the Chinese New Year.

Eric left his hometown at the age of 18 to go to college in a big city. Although he was born in a prestigious school, in this era when there are many undergraduates, the difficulty of college students in finding employment is no longer new. My parents are just ordinary workers in third-tier cities in the interior, and it is not easy to gain a foothold in a big city. Although Eric Wang also found a stable job when he graduated, he was not willing to barely make ends meet with three or four thousand yuan a month, and began a "toss" that lasted for several years.

In the first few years, he sold insurance, ran sales, set up a stall, opened an online store, and worked as a subtitle group in his spare time, translating some British and American dramas for video websites. In 2006, a few friends saw the opportunity of the e-commerce boom and pooled money to open a courier company. King Eric took out his wife, who originally planned to buy a house, 200,000 yuan. The grass platform team was newly created, and King Eric also worked hard. During the day, I personally rode an electric three-wheeled delivery (the company had no money and couldn't afford to hire too many couriers), and held a meeting at night to study the company's management and supplement various logistics industry knowledge. After more than a year of hard work, the company can be regarded as catching up with a good time, and soon opened up the situation and developed in full swing. Just when Eric Wang was dreaming of going to the pinnacle of his life, the company's general manager and financial director quietly sold the company to a Hong Kong-funded logistics company, and ran away with more than 30 million yuan. It is said that the two bought a ranch after they went to New Zealand and got married. "Why didn't I see that there was a leg between this dog man and woman at the beginning, and the underground work was really good." When he thinks about this, King Eric is incredulous at what he realized at that time.

After fighting a hopeless lawsuit with the Hong Kong-funded company, Eric, who had no chance of winning, lived a life without a house, a car, money or a wife. Just in time for 2008, UPS, the world's largest express company, set up an operation center at SH Pudong International Airport, Eric Wang, who has experience in the logistics industry, became the first batch of employees of the center through interviews. With a brilliant brain, excellent language communication skills and hard-working spirit, Eric Wang quickly stood out in the company, was promoted step by step, and got the opportunity to go to the US headquarters for training in 2010. During his training, Eric won the company's top management and eventually stayed in the U.S. headquarters, where he took on the role of director of the Louisville Airport Operations Center in 2013.

In a blink of an eye, King Eric has been living in the United States for 6 years. Thanks to the subprime mortgage crisis, he now has his own nest in Louisville, a small three-story building with a 100-square-meter garden, which is quite cheap. The original owner of the small building was a bankrupt wine merchant, and there was a small wine cellar underground. But King Eric has never been very interested in red wine, and he doesn't hate it or like it. Today, the wine room has been converted into a gun room by King Eric. Since his parents were both workers in the third-line arsenal, Eric Wang had a strong interest in firearms from a young age. After obtaining the gun license, he successively collected many classic firearms, but they were all castrated versions for civilian use. In his free time, he spends his own cat in the basement tending to his guns and also participates in some local shooting competitions. Now he is making a name for himself among local firearms enthusiasts and is applying to become a member of the National Rifle Association.

Although the house has six bedrooms, King Eric is currently a bachelor. During the Spring Festival last year, Eric Wang took his parents over for more than two months. He originally planned to let his parents simply emigrate, but "Beat City" (another name for Louisville, named after the first Kentucky Tournament of the Triple Crown) is not San Francisco after all, there are not many Chinese, and his parents do not understand English, so they are really not used to living. Coupled with the fact that the old couple kept "urging marriage", King Eric was also a little overwhelmed, so he sent them back to China.

Regarding the matter of getting married and having children, Eric King still has a positive attitude. After all, he is an only child, and the old Wang family can't be left behind him, and King Eric is still a traditional Chinese man at this point. But it's not easy for a 35-year-old Asian man to find a suitable marriage partner in Louisville. Although he also haunts bars to participate in various parties, those girls are okay to act on the spot, and marriage is really not his appetite. King Eric didn't want to make do with it, and he didn't want to get married and leave and toss himself, so the matter dragged on day by day.

Recently, however, he joined an aero club and met a girl named Camille at flight school. This is a French-American girl from New Orleans, who works for a local health insurance company, and looks a bit like the beautiful French anchor Melissa Trio. The two of them have been doing well lately, often going to Riverside Park for a bike ride and having dinner together at a French restaurant in town. With less than 40 lessons to go before he gets his pilot's license, Eric is ready to launch another offensive before the end of his studies.

In general, in the eyes of outsiders, in addition to the fact that he has not been able to marry Bai Fumei so far, King Eric can be regarded as a winner in life. But on this Chinese New Year's Eve, his deep nostalgia for the warm and comfortable life in his hometown is particularly strong.

"Damn Davis, I'm not having a good year!" At the end of the call with his family, King Eric couldn't help but curse his deputy, a Yankee with a weird goatee. A week ago, the guy who once drunkenly boasted that his ancestors were Jefferson Davis, the president of the Confederate States of America (a "country" established in the South during the Civil War), broke his tail vertebrae while going out skiing, and King Eric's vacation plan to return home for the New Year was completely ruined, and the Chinese New Year's Eve could only be on duty at the airport bitterly.

Putting down the phone, King Eric got up to make himself a cup of black tea, and when he turned his head, he was stunned by the sight outside the window. A cargo plane had already rushed off the runway, and the nose of the plane had crashed into his office. “Oh，myGOD！ Our old Wang family is going to die. "This was the last thought in King Eric's mind amid the loud bang.

When he woke up again, Eric found himself in a bed. Heavy oak furniture, large gilded dressing mirrors, satin sofas, velvet curtains and silk pajamas, and although he had a strap on his head, King Eric was sure that he was not in the hospital right now. Even if Louisville is a major health care center in the United States and has a very developed medical industry, no hospital will have its wards renovated in the style of the thirties and forties of the last century. King Eric sat up with difficulty and looked at himself in the mirror. It was a completely unfamiliar face, and although it was wrapped in gauze around its head, it could still be seen that it was a Caucasian face. Chestnut hair, high nose bridge, brown eyes, although the face is pale, but he is still a handsome guy. Crossed? Eric Wang suddenly thought of the web novels he used to read in college. At this time, his mind was dizzy, and a completely different memory came to his mind.
