Chapter 169: Las Vegas
It is said that the human heart is made of flesh. Although the cultures of Americans and Chinese are different, there are some themes that are common to all human beings. For example, love, for example, for the maintenance of the country, for example, for bravery, for example, talent......
Not to mention that overseas Chinese are so moved by Yu Sheng's behavior that they can't do it, even Americans think that Yu Sheng is really good. Americans have always valued individual heroism. However, this kind of hero is often not ruthless, just like Lu Xun's poem - ruthless may not be a true hero, how can a poor son not be a husband! Do you know if the wind is howling, look back and look smaller!
What he did for the rest of his life is exactly what Americans fantasize about heroes, even if this person is yellow. And most of the Americans in this era are not poor, at least much richer than the Chinese. Therefore, after the rest of her life was revealed, Qing Xiaoyi would receive money and materials spontaneously donated by many Americans every day.
Originally, Qing Xiaoyi thought it was just an accident, but after three or five days, the total value of the money and materials received actually reached as much as 50,000 US dollars! Qing Xiaoyi had to hire accountants to set up a special fund and publish the accounts to the public.
As an old partner for the rest of his life, Albert was not idle, after the accident of the rest of his life, in addition to calling Qing Xiaoyi and greeting him. also donated a sum of money on behalf of himself and Warner. And Huang Zongzhan and Huang Liushuang and other Yu Da Boss's team naturally donated a lot of things.
And unexpectedly, after Yu Sheng and his ex-wife Ye whispered, after being dug up by the American media, no one attacked Yu Sheng. On the contrary, most people think that Yu Sheng is a loving and righteous man who dares to take revenge on the Japanese. After hearing this story, many Hollywood actresses couldn't help but be moved.
Hollywood in this era, although as chaotic as later generations. Celebrities are not so careful about their private lives. But for most actresses who have experienced several romances in Hollywood, a reliable man is always not so easy to find. And the love and righteousness of the rest of her life and her private life as clean as shallots and tofu naturally aroused the great interest of these actresses.
Therefore, there are many Hollywood actresses who have also donated a lot of things for the rest of their lives. However, there are some things that are really useless in the war of resistance. For example, cigars for men, razors, letterheads with love poems, novels about men and women, and so on......
These things make Qing Xiaoyi very unhappy, where are these materials donated to the Anti-Japanese War, they are simply gifts for lovers! These goblins will seduce people! Therefore, the fate of these things was not to be sent back to China's base behind enemy lines, but to be sent directly into the trash by Qing Xiaoyi!
Of course, it is impossible for these news to be reported in such detail in the newspaper, and most of them were told by Qing Xiaoyi in person for the rest of his life. After falling asleep reading the newspaper for the rest of his life, he woke up. Qing Xiaoyi had already taken the plane and rushed to Yu Sheng's side.
Of course, it was not civil aviation, but the DC-3 that Yu Sheng bought cheaply from Douglas Aircraft. Originally, she had been parked at Douglas Company, Qing Xiaoyi was anxious, smashed down a dollar, and actually transferred pilots and planes from Douglas Company an hour after Zhang Xiaocang informed her that she had found Yu Sheng, and flew directly to Salt Lake City, Utah!
Yu Sheng hugged Qing Xiaoyi, and listened to Qing Xiaoyi talking a little jealously about Yu Sheng's disappearance. These are joyful and worrying details. Only then did I feel that the sun was warm and the years were quiet. I feel that I really can't stand the woman in my arms, and I should compensate her.
At this time, Albert also learned the news of the arrival of the rest of his life in Salt Lake City. A call came. After expressing his concern, he said to Yu Sheng: "Dear Yu, let's come to Los Angeles!" ”
Since the flagship store of the herring fish Chinese restaurant with its headquarters in New York, so. Although he occasionally went to Los Angeles for the rest of his life, he never knew the city in detail. At most, it's going around Hollywood. That's it.
For Albert, and even Warner, they want to live in Los Angeles for the rest of their lives. Nowadays, several major Hollywood movie giants have full wings, and under the monopoly, it is difficult for others to have the opportunity to reach such heights. Although Yu Sheng is talented, in the eyes of Albert Warner, the Warner brothers, and even some other film giants, it is impossible for Yu Sheng to build a film and television empire on his own. Entertainment talent and business management are completely different things.
Therefore, these giants in the film industry have no intention of suppressing the rest of their lives, and most of them are still mainly wooing. Among them, the one most likely to win over the rest of his life is Warner. Not to mention the personal relationship between Yu Sheng and Albert Warner, that is, just to mention the several collaborations between Yu Sheng and Warner, all of them were successful and happy, making a lot of money.
Albert invited the rest of his life several times to stay in Los Angeles in order to tie the rest of his life firmly to the ship of Warner. Although Yu Sheng has his own production team, he also knows that it may be difficult to become a giant again. also understood what Albert meant, so he repeatedly refused Albert's invitation.
It's just this time, after a series of things from disappearance to return, I found out for the rest of my life that this Albert is really more reliable. After his disappearance, he was the strongest voice in Hollywood. There is no intention of taking advantage of the fire to rob and fall into the well. A true friend.
Therefore, although he still does not want to be controlled by others for the rest of his life, Albert's affection cannot be disappointed. At least something in return. So, after Albert sent out the invitation, Yu Sheng thought about it a little and agreed.
It just so happened that Qing Xiaoyi hadn't visited the western United States and Los Angeles carefully. This trip can be regarded as compensation for Qing Xiaoyi.
However, the rest of his life does not plan to go directly to Los Angeles. Now that you're in the western United States, there's only one place you can't visit, and that's Las Vegas! And, there is a direct line from Salt Lake City to Los Angeles, and one stop on this long line is Las Vegas!
Although the rest of his life can be regarded as a small second generation in later generations, he has never been to Las Vegas. It's just that there are constant rumors in the rivers and lakes, and in later generations, this place has simply become a place for all kinds of second-generation and goddaughters in China to show off their wealth. It's hard to be unknown.
In reality, Las Vegas was originally just an oasis in the Gobi and desert. Las Vegas gets its name from the Spanish language and was first founded by Mormons. However, it is too remote and inhospitable, and although there is spring, there is no other production. So the population is extremely small. Even in 1905, Las Vegas was officially established. There hasn't been much improvement either.
It wasn't until the discovery of gold and silver in Nevada that American gold prospectors flocked from far and wide that Las Vegas prospered. However, most of the gold diggers of that era were dukes who fantasized about getting rich overnight, so after coming to Las Vegas, when they found that the income from mining gold and silver deposits was unsatisfactory, they started another game - broadcasting!
However, gold and silver deposits are always limited. After the gold and silver were exhausted, people left, and by 1910, when the game was over, Las Vegas was once again in the same silence as the desert. It's just a transit point that provides food and tents for travelers.
In order to live on an income, the local government has to open playgrounds in the local area to earn a small income.
It wasn't until 1930 that construction began on the Hoover Dam, 47 kilometers southeast of Las Vegas. This small city, which has been forgotten for a long time, has only been remembered again.
Subsequently. The Great Depression in the United States was upon us. At this time, Las Vegas needed a lot of construction workers because of the need to build the Hoover Dam and the large amount of infrastructure work that would result from the construction of the Hoover Dam. This was in the era of the Great Depression. One of the few jobs that can support a family.
Las Vegas is once again considered paradise! Within six months of 1930, Las Vegas was flooded with more than 42,000 job seekers, and there were only about 5,000 construction jobs.
So. When a large number of Americans don't find a job, they go straight to Las Vegas to work in a variety of industries and occupations that are not allowed by traditional morality. Survive with this.
Americans' consumption outlook seems to be that they have alcohol today and get drunk today. If there is no wine in the future, they will buy it with the money they will earn in the future. After earning money, a large number of Americans do not choose to save or invest, but choose to go straight to Las Vegas and spend the money they earn!
Las Vegas in this era, although it has declined compared to the time when there was a gold and silver mine, the foundation is still there, not only has a bar one after another, but also a girl who is more beautiful than the other and can be smashed down with money.
In 1931, during the Great Depression in the United States, the Nevada Legislature passed the Dubo Legislature in order to tide over the difficulties. Subsequently, in a matter of months, countless dub houses appeared on Fremont Street in Las Vegas.
Since then, Las Vegas has been known as the "City of Sin." And Nevada also has the nickname of "Rogue State". And the booming bocai industry brings a huge flow of people, a variety of service industries and other tertiary industries, thriving here. A large number of jobs are available for Americans. A large number of Americans are here, relying on huge foot traffic and cash inflows to survive.
By 1938, Los Angeles began to strictly prohibit gambling, so a large number of professional broadcasters chose Las Vegas as the capital of crime. A large number of specialized spinach utensils and spinach methods were introduced to Las Vegas. Since then, the Las Vegas landscape has become a reality.
Although in later generations, it is generally recognized that Las Vegas flourished after World War II, in 1946, after Las Vegas first established a large-scale DU field, its industrial foundation was laid before the war, and it is unique in the United States!
Therefore, after setting the itinerary to Los Angeles for the rest of his life, he did not hesitate to make a plan to go to Las Vegas. Of course, the two horses and the little dog have to follow Yu Sheng and Qing Xiaoyi.
The rest of his life didn't buy Ryan just for fun, or to get close to a few of Brysler's farmers. In the United States, where Du horses are legal, it is really unreasonable not to make a lot of money. After all, I've been spending a lot of money lately, and if I want to support my family, I need to earn more.
However, for Qing Xiaoyi, a person who doesn't like sports, Ryan, who is fast and has good endurance but is not very good-tempered, is obviously not as likable as the simple-looking and cute Sharma. Although the Shire horse is huge in size and is not a horse specifically designed for riding, but a pull-back horse, straddle riding is obviously more troublesome. However, Yu Sheng customized a special saddle for Qing Xiaoyi, with her legs together, and it was still very comfortable to ride on horseback sideways. Moreover, Sharma itself is not fast running, and his movements are not as violent. It is very suitable for young artists to ride.
Qing Xiaoyi likes this gift for the rest of her life very much. As for the little dog, he was disqualified from sleeping on the back of the Shire.
Yu Sheng and Qing Xiaoyi were on their way to Las Vegas, and the news of Yu Sheng's return had been published in American newspapers. Although I didn't make a big deal of it for the rest of my life, I, Hu Hansan, came back. However, after the overwhelming coverage of the American media in the early stage, the return of the rest of his life still attracted the attention of many people.
Alexander of the Bull's Head Ranch wept with joy, and if he disappeared for the rest of his life, or was eaten by wolves, his sin would be great. If nothing else, Blaisler wouldn't let him go. However, Alexander was not to blame for the rest of his life, after all, the accident was not man-made. He only sent a telegram back asking Alexander to fatten the cattle from the cattle head ranch in a centralized manner, slaughter them on the spot, and after embalming them, they were shipped to China with the 300 tons of corn.
And Bleisler and a few farmers knew that their fortune boy had returned, and they couldn't help but celebrate with their hands, after all, the rest of his life was not fighting alone, and there was a vast Chinese market behind him!
At this time, the fact that Yu Sheng was in danger because of raising food for the domestic anti-Japanese war was finally transmitted back to China through overseas Chinese. No matter what these overseas Chinese used to say about the rest of their lives, most of them agreed with the rest of their lives after this incident. The staff of the Qingyu Chinese Restaurant often talk about the rest of their lives! And, be proud!
"What, you don't know who our boss is! Our boss is a jade tree in the wind, a pear tree pressed begonia, once won the Academy Award for the rest of his life, Yu Da talent! "Don't doubt it, this guy is immortal, he just told the story of "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" to the people around him for the rest of his life......
Words in the world are like games made by children, even if there is no malice, after passing through a dozen people, it will change its appearance.
With the support and praise of overseas Chinese, when this matter was reported back to China, what he did in the rest of his life had been exaggerated a thousand times. It's just a myth and a legend. (To be continued.) )
