Chapter 223: The Old Three, Chapter Five

Subtitle of this chapter: The beautiful woman gave me the big red horse

…………………………………

In this chapter, I would like to talk about one of the most controversial figures in modern American history. One of the controversies about him is whether or not he is a member of the SCP Foundation.

The author is very sure that John Edgar Hoover is the "hermit" of the ninth trumpet in the greater Alcana.

On the surface, these two not only have little intersection in history, but can be regarded as old enemies.

In particular, during the two "Great Purges" of Hollywood in the late 20s, early 30s and early 50s, Mr. Yuan was a very high-profile and public critic of the FBI's persecution of filmmakers.

But strangely, Hoover, who unscrupulously conducted secret investigations of various figures in the United States, did not put Yuan Yanqian on his blacklist. You must know that Hoover has a photo of Mrs. Roosevelt taken by a certain actor, but he doesn't even have a phone call related to Yuan Yanqi.

Even Mr. Yuan's close friends, such as his lawyer John McCaul, his public lovers Lillian Gish and Ainica Rocher, were completely unnoticed by Hoover.

This makes people wonder if they are acting in a big show to fool the public.

If you dig a little deeper, you can find that Yuan Yanqi's dream factory was not only unscathed during these two purges, but also got two very valuable development opportunities.

The first "purge" targeted Jews in Hollywood, and it is not surprising that anti-Semitism was rampant in American society at a time. Strangely, the Chinese, whose reputation is not much better than that of the Jews, has not been affected at all.

At that time, almost all of Hollywood's top nine studios, except for DreamWorks, were Jewish. And after the blow to these eight major film studios, filmmakers from all walks of life had no choice but to throw themselves into the arms of DreamWorks. Even Chaplin sold Lianyi to Lillian Gish, and became a pillar of DreamWorks himself.

The second "purge" dealt a heavy blow to the small and medium-sized film companies that developed during World War II, and many independent filmmakers not only lost the opportunity to make films, but were also expelled from the United States.

DreamWorks has since become even more dominant. Although the film trust had to be split later because of the "antitrust" law, almost all of Hollywood's middle and upper echelons at that time came from DreamWorks, and many of them were Chinese compatriots of Yuan Yanqi.

If this is just a coincidence, then we can look at the history of Edgar Hoover.

Of course, he was indeed a brilliant civil servant, and soon after entering the U.S. Department of Justice, he became the head of the enemy country's civil registration department.

But it was in 1921 that he really made his mark, when he became deputy director of the BOI at the age of 26.

For the next half century, he was the most powerful man in America...... If he is indeed a hermit of the SCP Foundation, then the Fool Yuan Yanqian is the big black hand behind him.

The most sensational and bizarre event in American politics in 1921 was the voluntary resignation of Attorney General Harry M. Doherty, who had only been in office for three months.

Prior to his resignation, he led Congress through the Doherty Act as a spokesman for the Ohio Gang. This act allows foreigners to invest directly in the Philippines, a U.S. colony in Southeast Asia.

This is very incredible for the United States, which regards the Philippines as a forbidden country. So half a year after his resignation, the bill was canceled.

However, in this short six-month window, Huang Zhonghan, a wealthy Chinese in Nanyang and known as the "sugar king", transferred a large amount of assets to the Philippines in the name of investment, and the Dutch and Indian authorities even protested against the US government.

So to say that there is no greasy in this, not to mention that the author will not believe it, even you readers.

And Huang Zhonghan is Yuan Yanqian's brother-in-law, and Huang Zhonghan's son Huang Zongyi has a closer relationship with Mr. Yuan.

However, there is a lot of historical evidence that Doherty passed the bill with great reluctance. Some witnesses said that he scolded Yuan Yanqian in private, calling him a despicable squint, a hateful Chinese Yankee, and a goddamn hooligan......

Therefore, the biggest beneficiary of this bill and his resignation is the SCP Foundation fool.

Why did Doherty resign? It is now known to historians that it was Vice President Coolidge who presented extremely strong evidence to President Harding that this important member of the cabinet was gay.

This was naturally a huge scandal in 1921, which would not only cause a political storm, but also be enough to destroy the prestige of the Harding government, because Warren Harding and Harry Doherty were known to be close friends. As a result, the Minister of Justice had to resign voluntarily.

And this scandal has also greatly damaged President Harding's health, leaving some of his actual power in the hands of his vice president.

Soon after, Coolidge promoted Hoover exceptionally. It was during his tenure that Hoover not only became the director of the BOI, but also transformed it into a real Leviathan - the FBI ......"

— Excerpt from Dan Brown's SCP Code

"Sister Lian? Sister Lian! I'm starving, make me something to eat. ”

Finally emptied those little friends, Master Yuan, who hadn't eaten any serious food since yesterday, was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, so he had to get up and find something to eat by himself.

But as soon as his cook saw his energetic appearance, not only did she not open the forest, but cried: "Woo woo...... Uncle, you, you, you're coming back to the light......"

Sister Lian wept bitterly and said, "Woo woo...... Little Miss, your life is so miserable......"

She cried in a low voice: "Woo woo...... You didn't cross the door and became a widow......"

Yuan Yanqian had no choice but to roll her eyes, and shouted very openly: "Sister Lian, don't cry for your young lady first, okay?" Even if I'm going to die soon, you're going to have to make me a full ghost! ”

"Yes, yes, yes, otherwise uncle, you will fall into the hungry ghost road......" Sister Lian really didn't cry when she heard this, wiped her tears and immediately turned around and went into the kitchen, "I'll make scallion oil noodles for you to make for your uncle!" ”

Although you can't see it outside in the wind and rain, the sun is about to set in the west......

It was quiet in the luxury apartment, which was still overcrowded......

Master Yuan, who had not yet burped and had become a hungry ghost, held the largest soup bowl and ate his favorite scallion oil noodles......

The room resounded with the ballad of "Siri Snoring".

"Bang! Syllable! Syllable! ……”

He was eating happily when he heard someone slamming the door, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, did he obviously tell Xiaokang that he didn't see guests, why did anyone come?

Our Master Yuan had no choice but to stand up, walk to the bedroom with the "basin" in his arms, and commanded: "Sister Lian, you told the people outside that I was dying and was in a bad mood, so I didn't see anyone." ”

"I'm sorry, ma'am. My aunt didn't see ......."

"I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I'm greasy, I'm greasy, I'm greasy, where are you???!!!"

"Bang dang!"

As soon as a Qianying pushed open the bedroom door, she made a face-to-eye with Yuan Yanqi, who was eating noodles......

"Huh!"

Our Master Yuan sucked the noodles into his mouth, raised his chopsticks and asked with a smile, "Keke, have you eaten it?" ”
