Chapter 71: Welcome to Little Havana

"Martin, do you know why Stephen, the producer, allowed every unlucky guy to bring an assistant when I chose you? Because you're from Miami, I love Miami, I love little Havana, and I love hot Cuban girls in hula! Tommy, dressed in a tank top and beach pants and flip-flops, walked down the ramp of the plane, shielding himself from the hot sun with his hands, and said to Martin, a black man carrying two large suitcases behind him:

"So, how long does it take us to get from the airport to the famous Little Havana?"

Martin followed Tommy off the plane and put his suitcase on the ground: "Boss, there is one thing I want to explain clearly, Miami does have Little Havana, I also introduced myself to people in Los Angeles as being from Miami, but I am actually completely unfamiliar with Little Havana, I have never been to it once, the place where I grew up is called Port-au-Petit, also called Little Haiti, Cuba and Haiti, are two hostile countries, Cuba holds Soviet money and pursues communism, Haiti holds American money and resolutely fights communism, Coupled with the fact that the United States has completely different attitudes towards Cuban immigrants and Haitian black immigrants, Cuban immigrants enjoy better benefits than blacks, so although the little Havanes of Miami and the little Haitians hate Americans, they ...... each other Belch...... Just like the Soviet soldiers and the American soldiers, the relationship was harmonious. ”

After the two men stepped off the plane, four or five people with cameras and radios followed them out of the plane, and Paige Sr. was among them.

"In other words, you can only take me to Miami Compton, which is full of black people, Shit, when you were in Los Angeles, you also brag about yourself getting two Cuban girls in one night, I'm going to see all kinds of Cuban babes, I don't want to go to Little Haiti, I'm going to Little Havana." Tommy said.

Martin chattered after Tommy: "Black people also have hot girls, I have a cousin, I can introduce you to know, but boss, the two of us together, only fifty dollars in cash, if you don't eat or drink, you can stay in the cheapest hotel for about two nights, but only if you go to the place in Little Haiti to find my acquaintances, for my sake, they don't need us to pay a deposit and taxes, otherwise we will probably have to go to the Haitian refugee camp to find an empty tent for the night." ”

Tommy ignored Martin's advice and turned to look at the team in charge of his group: "Hey, if something comes out that doesn't work for play, you'll make sure it's removed, right?" ”

"Yes, sir." Nick Peterson, the head of the film crew who followed the film, had just adjusted the machine at this time, raised his head and said in an affirmative tone.

Then he walked over to Tommy and introduced the script he had in his possession: "Mr. Hawke, according to our general plan, you only need to go to the Twelfth Street Catholic Church in the South Side to feed on relief food, and spend the first night in the lodgings provided by the church, where you can express your ...... for the poor."

"Don't feel poor people, I was a poor person before, and I don't want to repeat that bad life again, in short, I like to do whatever I want, I will show the American dream in my eyes, I will not beg you to give me more program funds, I can do whatever I want, I can shoot whatever I want, whether I can shoot it or not, it has nothing to do with me, that's all, now you can go back to the machine, Martin, call a taxi, and let's go."

"To Little Haiti, which I know?" Martin asked, not quite sure.

"Go to Little Havana and see the Cuban girl." Tommy put his hands in the pockets of his beach pants and walked forward.

Martin followed closely with two suitcases: "When I was in Miami before, I heard that there is a handout in Little Havana that will give out the kind of high-end restaurant food to the poor, the owner, damn American, Little Haiti doesn't provide the expiration date food of high-end restaurants, it's discrimination." ”

The program team that followed the filming hesitated for a moment, and looked at Peppa, who seemed to have nothing to do with himself: "How can I convince your boss to cooperate with our shooting?" ”

"Listen to him." Page looked down and lit a cigarette and said in a calm tone.

Then, he motioned for the film crew to follow with him.

Yes, Tommy, who had just a few months to spare, finally failed to dampen Stephen's enthusiasm, and he thought that the American show he came up with would definitely win the Amy Award for Best Reality TV in the American Television Industry.

In addition to Tommy and his assistant Martin, there are two groups of people who have been captured by Stephen, one is Jason and his girlfriend Susie, who serves as an assistant, and the other is Stephen's brother at the Stanford Order of the Phoenix.

Jason was sent to San Saramento, California, and the other group was sent to River City, Washington, in fact, according to Stephen's original plan, he was going to leave Tommy in Alaska, he didn't want to see Tommy soar at all, he just wanted to see Tommy survive in the wilderness.

Although according to the show's publicity, these people need to support themselves in the next time and show how to change from a poor ghost to a rich man again, but in fact, even Stephen, who firmly believes that he can win the Oscar, does not believe that the poor American ghost can really easily realize the American dream and become a rich man.

To this end, they designed a lot of realistic scripts, and arranged extras in those cities, basically as long as they followed the prompts of the filming crew, they could get the help of those actors' well-wishers, and finally gradually accumulate wealth, become rich, and realize the great American dream.

However, Tommy was not prepared to live in the kind of bad group dormitory provided by the church as required by the program team, he chose Miami for vacation, and filming the show was just by the way.

When the taxi stopped in Cala Ocho, the heart of Little Havana, Tommy couldn't wait to pull the door and get out of the car, leaving Martin to pay the fare with a painful face.

This is Miami's Little Havana, the place that countless Latinos who have immigrated to the United States have called the "capital of Latin America".

At this time, the tourists and pedestrians who are active in this central square make Tommy feel that there are more people than the entire city of Warwick.

Along the street are Cuban-style, with baroque covered bridges of stone-walled shops, the surrounding air is filled with the aroma of cigars and coffee, and there are a lot of beautiful women dressed in Latin style costumes, gracefully shuttling in the square, selling all kinds of small goods in their hands, every time the running speed is a little faster, you can arouse a large flock of wings flying in the square.

It's still cold season, and New York is full of tourists from the North who come to the South for vacation, either holding up their cameras and taking pictures, sitting in an open-air coffee shop and sipping Latin American artisanal coffee, or sitting on a bench grabbing crumbs to feed pigeons that look completely unafraid of people and are too overweight to fly.

Some street artists, like Latino, tinker around the square with various musical instruments, play bursts of melodious rhythms, and even some dance to the music, a strong sense of rhythm.

"That's what a vacation is." As Tommy was sighing, a beautiful woman wearing a straw hat and a cool outfit, allowing a large area of fair skin to be exposed to the sun, and looking at the white Hispanic complexion, walked up to Tommy and showed him the pallet of goods she was holding, which contained cigars, sunglasses, wood carving trinkets and other small goods.

The girl slowly inserted a well-packed cigar into the ravine in front of her chest, and said generously to Tommy:

"Want to try an authentic Cuban cigar? Mr? You can pick it yourself, pick it up and welcome to Havana. ”
