Chapter 1901: Failed Project
Santa Clara has benefited from the rise of the Snow Mountain Group, with the development of surrounding industries, bringing a lot of resident population, the size of the city has tripled compared to that year, and three comprehensive shopping malls have been built.
Originally, it was planned to develop tourism, but there was nothing worth visiting in the town, and there was no natural beauty around, only the four towers of the snow mountain could be visited, so the mayor decided to make Santa Clara Town a tourist town specializing in eating, drinking and playing after discussion, and persuaded Han Xuan's proposal to build Disneyland near this neighborhood was carried out in the context of developing a tourist town.
Unfortunately, there is already a Disneyland in California, located in the Disneyland Resort of Anaheim, which has been one of the most popular theme parks in the world since it opened on July 17, 1955.
So at the beginning, Han Xuan did not directly give the mayor a positive answer, but only told that he would consider it and try to help the town develop, and the main driving force for Santa Clara's economic improvement is still the real estate industry, and the taxes of nearby enterprises have nothing to do with the town, and they are directly handed over to the state.
If California declares independence, its GDP will be higher than that of the whole of Canada, enough to become the world's seventh-largest economy, and Han Xuan is California's most important "mobile business card", representing the entire Silicon Valley.
His own worth is more than last year's GDP in California, which is about the combined wealth of the world's poorest four billion people.
Anya is under a lot of pressure with him, Han Xuan didn't put pressure on her, she felt pressure because she thought about it herself, and at the same time, the bodyguards who followed Anya all the year round were also under pressure, after all, wealth was too tempting, and at the moment their eyes were searching in the crowd, and the onlookers below were furious by them.
After eating the last bite and swallowing hard, Fat Ding patted his chest with his front paws, and licked all the crumbs on the plate with his little tongue, and then he was satisfied and pushed the plate to the fat owner of the hot dog shop.
It's not that I can't eat it, but I deliberately left some stomach so that I can eat something else later, and I stood up with my short legs open and begged Anya to hug me.
The boss didn't ask for money, and asked for a photo with Anya, this kind of request can be heard everywhere, she has a gentle personality, and after agreeing to take a photo with a smile, she still dropped ten dollars, and the extra is a tip, and she usually doesn't have money on her body, so she brought some change before going out today.
Deliberately ignoring the crowd of onlookers, it feels good to go shopping like this, Anya thought that today would be the same as before, but she didn't know for the time being, there was a super big trouble, and it was walking towards where she was......
Since you can walk, you naturally refer to someone.
Not far from the city center where Anya is located, there is a middle-aged man wearing shabby clothes, yellowish hair, and a little natural curls.
His name is Petri Robben, his ancestral home is in Finland, he was not born when his ancestors immigrated to the United States during World War II, he is just 40 years old this year, he has no savings, no house, no car, no money to pay social security, except for a meager salary for work, almost no different from a homeless man.
In fact, he did sleep on the street for a few years in previous years, and it wasn't until last month that he arrived in Santa Clara, where he was forced to find a manual job or starve.
He was quite tall, but extremely thin, and looking at his pale face, anyone who knew a little bit could understand that he had a habit of taking drugs, and that thing was so harmful to the human body that it was abnormal just by his appearance, and no one would hire someone like him except for a profession such as dumping garbage cans.
When he was young, Petri Robben was also romantic, he was a wandering singer for a while, and he also formed a band with others, running all over the United States, but he soon disbanded, not to mention being famous, it was a problem for him to make ends meet, he dug in South America for several years in the late nineties, and was later kicked out for stealing the boss's money, all in all, he didn't say anything, he was still a complete scoundrel, and he had all kinds of bad habits.
At this moment, he felt that the time had come to change his fate, all from a news about Anya that he saw two months ago, almost all Americans knew her, and Petri was no exception, the gap between the two was like from the sun to Neptune, but because of the meeting of her mother Cecilia, Petri decided that he was related to Anya.
He decided that he was Anya's biological father!
Although many years have passed, Petri recognized Mrs. Cecilia through the photo, and also remembered a small episode in his life, and still remembered that back then, a woman called him to say that she was pregnant, and she hung up the phone.
Laughing wildly while running, the patrolman even thought the guy was crazy when he passed by the police......
On the other side, Anya was walking along the streets, following the advice of her bodyguards, often turning into other streets to prevent them from falling into traps, and helicopters occasionally flew over them to check on the rooftops of the small buildings.
Fat Ding hiccups while walking, with food as a driving force, shopping has become easy and pleasant for him, the beautiful girl with this fat cat, the scene is eye-catching, even passing cars will stop, seriously affecting the traffic.
When passing by Tiffany's store, she saw a key-shaped pendant through the glass, the color successfully attracted Anya, the value is secondary, don't care at all, the difference is just like and dislike, after entering the store, ask the clerk: "That, key-shaped pendant, is there on the counter?"
I want to buy one, if you can give it to me first, okay, is there any new one recently? ”
Several female clerks screamed in surprise when they saw her, they were just talking about the news of the acquisition of Tiffany Group by the Hoops Group, but they didn't expect to see Anya, and the store manager hurriedly replied: "Okay, Miss Dolores, it's the blue one, right?"
The new products are all on the counter in front of you, and there is a very beautiful earring, but unfortunately it is sold out, if you want it, you can have it delivered today. ”
At this moment, the bodyguard standing at the door found that a man was squeezing into the crowd, and immediately paid special attention to him.
Pushed by Petri and almost fell, a black man smelled him and cursed in an unhappy tone, "What a squeeze!" It stinks so much, it just fell into the toilet!? ”
Petri just didn't hear it, and continued to squeeze in excitedly, and after passing through the crowd, he wanted to run into the store, and was about to reveal himself to the bodyguards in a haughty tone, when he was punched in the stomach, so that he fell and curled up and grinned.
A female bodyguard frowned and said, "Tell you to stop, are you deaf?" ”
According to the regulations, the bodyguards have the right to do something to approachers like this with unknown intentions, so they don't care, and those onlookers don't think anything, thinking that this guy is asking for himself, just watching a joke.
A reporter is taking pictures, the guy who eats in his hand is very good, Nikon 8700, just launched at the beginning of this year, with as many pixels as high as eight million, there are too many people around, and he is protecting his baby camera.
Anya glanced at the door, and after seeing the middle-aged man lying on the ground, she immediately withdrew her gaze and continued to take off her necklace, she didn't think that the bodyguards would do it for no reason, it was not the first time that something similar had happened.
Fat Ding trotted over curiously, and Petri Robben, who had eased up a little, deliberately increased his business, plucked a hair from his head, and shouted, "I am Dolores's biological father!" You can get your DNA tested, I'm her father!
Cecilia and I had a romantic relationship on the Santorini cruise ship! I just recently found out that I actually have a daughter! ”
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was in an uproar, most of them were scolding him for deceiving people, and the black young man just now continued to shout: "Dog. Excrement! How could someone like you get involved with Dolores! ”
"Liar! Surely a liar! ”
"If you have caught the money, get ready to scam! It's disgusting, and sure enough, all kinds of guys have ......."
And Anya instantly turned her head to look out, staring at the man on the ground with wide eyes, as if she had seen something unbelievable.
Something suddenly came to her mind, remembering that when she was a child, her mother had indeed said that the cruise ship between New York and Boston, and that she was pregnant during the cruise trip, and she was surprised how this man could know.
Thinking about it in horror, her eyes opened wider, and she could clearly see her purple pupils.
Before that, it wasn't that there were no scammers who came to the door, saying that they were Anya's father, they couldn't provide too many details, they just wanted to blackmail her to cheat a sum of money, and since she became famous, many guys with ulterior motives have targeted Anya.
However, at this moment, she felt that this might be true, and if her mother hadn't told anyone about the cruise ship, then only her father should know.
When I was a child, most of the others had fathers, even if they divorced or died, their classmates at least knew who their father was and what he looked like, but Anya didn't know, when she was very young, she often asked her mother about her father, and Mrs. Cecilia rarely talked about it, and sometimes used lies to deceive Anya, such as going out to fight bad guys, such as not being able to come back because of something, etc.
When she grew up, she guessed that her father must have abandoned her mother and herself, otherwise she would not have never shown up, and some of her fathers who had never appeared were actually disgusted, otherwise in the years after she was born, her mother would not have been so difficult......
