The famous American prophecy made Chen Weizheng laugh involuntarily. If this prophet had not appeared again, he would have almost forgotten about this matter. His face was full of bitterness. Chen Weizheng's first thought was to turn the prophet into a god. What was an unnatural attack? That became Chen Weizheng's topic of discussion.
New Year's Eve, December 31st. There were only 36 hours until Chen Weizheng received the news. He had to come up with a plan and implement it as soon as possible. Time waits for no man. Chen Weizheng had to carry it out. This was the need to create a god, but also the need of reality.
"Holy sh * t, the dice are looking for someone. The Russians have been doing a lot of things recently. They are so busy, and the Americans are here to join in the fun. It's not fun." Chen Weizheng began to curse.
Cursing aside, he still had to do it. Chen Weizheng left for America that very night.
The first step was to collect the Statue of Liberty and store it in his finger. The second step was to throw it on the roof of the CIA in Langley, Virginia. This was Chen Weizheng's idea, but whether it would succeed or not, Chen Weizheng wasn't sure. His main concern was that the Statue of Liberty wasn't strong enough and would fall apart as soon as he put it in his finger.
This was the second time Chen Weizheng looked at the Statue of Liberty. The first time was from the perspective of a tourist. This time, he was looking at it from the perspective of a renovation worker. Following the spiral staircase inside the statue, Chen Weizheng climbed to its head. The climbing process was equivalent to a 12-story building. It was a bit tiring. Although there was an elevator, Chen Weizheng's purpose was not to look around. He had to understand the structure of the statue. The statue was 46 meters tall, 93 meters with the base, 225 tons (490,000 pounds), and was made of metal. The steel frame inside the statue was made by the architect Willeboduc and the world-famous French engineer Gustave Émile who built the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The Eiffel Tower was designed and built. The entire bronze statue was made of 120 tons of steel as the skeleton and 80 tons of copper sheets as the outer layer. It was fixed on the bracket with 300,000 rivets.
It should be hard enough that it would not fall apart even if it was placed horizontally. It was not a taboo for foreigners to make sculptures with empty stomachs.
The second step was to be able to easily store the statue. The statue was placed on a 46-meter-high concrete pedestal. The pedestal was designed by the famous Joseph Smith. Pulitzer raised 100,000 US dollars to build it, and the base has become the Museum of American Immigration History.
Chen Weizheng was in a dilemma as to whether to take away the statue or the pedestal. In the end, the screen told him that the pedestal was made of pure brick. If he took away the statue, the pedestal would collapse. The only thing that could be taken away was the statue. Chen Weizheng laughed when he thought about it. The top was made of steel, and the bottom was made of bricks. As the saying goes, if you pull out the radish, you will bring out the mud. It was a bit unrealistic to want to take away the mud as well.
The plan was already in place. It was just waiting for the night to start. There were still a few hours left. Going to Mount Rushmore to get a giant's head and throw it on the Pentagon. It was estimated that it would take more effort to get the giant's head down from the mountain than to get the Statue of Liberty. Chen Weizheng gave up the idea. It was better to use this time to walk around Manhattan and find a place to have a meal.
To find Chinese food, he had to go to Chinatown. Chinatown was the Chinese translation of the English word. The Chinese in New York sometimes called it Chinatown, and sometimes called it China Street. The accurate name should be "China Town." The development of Chinatown was also the history of overseas Chinese business. Since the middle of the 19th century, the first Cantonese man opened the first shop in lower Manhattan. For more than a hundred years, many Chinese people slowly gathered here to open shops. They came to the United States as Chinese workers to develop the West Coast of the United States, and gradually moved east to New York to make a living. In a situation where they were unfamiliar with the place and did not speak the language, they could only gather and live together to help each other and overcome difficulties together.
Being in Chinatown, Chen Weizheng felt that he had returned to a tourist attraction in China. Not only were the shop signs written in Chinese, but the road signs were also written in Chinese. The China -style archways were antique and eye-catching; the vermilion gates, blue tiles, painted eaves, and the roadside phone booths were also in the shape of China -style pagodas. Inadvertently looking at the posture of the Chinese restaurants here and smelling the aroma of Chinese food on the street, one might think that one was walking on the food street of Donghua Gate in Beijing.
It was not only the Chinese who loved Chinese food. Most Americans loved Chinese food. Chen Weizheng saw that the White Ghouls at the table next to him were using chopsticks more smoothly than the Chinese.
Suddenly, Chen Weizheng's mind was a little congested. Chinatown was naturally the descendant of the Tang Dynasty. When he went back, he would ask Tang Jingtian and Wu Dannai to create a set of Ming culture and set up a series of Ming Dynasty streets all over the world. The restaurants, ornaments, handicrafts, wood carvings, and even rubies in Shin Myung Province should be good.
The temperature in the north was very low, and the United States was not much better. In the cold wind, there were fewer people on the streets than usual. It was time for dinner, and gradually, the restaurant began to fill up. Foreigners were not worse off than China when it came to eating in restaurants. However, most foreigners were rich, while most Chinese were poor. Therefore, while foreigners were enjoying themselves, China was enjoying themselves. Chen Weizheng occupied a small booth by himself and asked the waiter to serve a small hot pot. This was a beef hot pot restaurant, and beef was the main dish. The small hot pot was very authentic. Everyone had a small pot to cook the meat dishes they ordered. Chen Weizheng ordered a set of pork tenderloin, a set of pork eyes, a set of Baiye, a set of Huang Hou, and then tofu and vegetables. After getting permission from the hotel, he took out a bottle of Maotai and drank by himself.
The boss came over to discuss with Chen Weizheng. He asked him to share the booth with a pair of young people and give up the booth for a group of four. Chen Weizheng did not mind. He took the wine bottle, chopsticks, and wine glass, and left the other things to the little girl. The boss was very grateful. This way, he could open another booth and earn more. He asked the little girl to give Chen Weizheng a set of soy sauce beef tendons. Chen Weizheng took a bite. The soy sauce beef tendons were not bad, and it was crispy and delicious.
"Hello!" The pair of young people across the booth took the initiative to talk. "Are you from China, the Republic of China, or the Kingdom?"
Chen Weizheng was confused. The other party saw that he did not understand and explained, "China is the mainland, the Republic of China is Taiwan, and the Kingdom is Shin Myung Province."
Chen Weizheng understood and felt that it was a little interesting. He nodded and said, "Kingdom."
"We're both from China. She's studying in America. I'm here to see her." The young man was very talkative.
"What a romantic age!" Chen Weizheng said. He raised the wine glass in his hand and asked, "Do you want some white wine?"
The young man hesitated and nodded. "A little."
Chen Weizheng poured a glass for the young man. The young man saw the logo on the bottle and said in surprise, "It's Maotai! This wine is very expensive in foreign countries! "
"I brought my own wine. It's cheaper." Chen Weizheng said.
The three of them chatted as they ate. Soon, the topic of the two hundred thousand Russians froze to death two days ago. The young man said, "The Russians are really pigs. Strictly speaking, they're worse than pigs. Pigs can run when they're frozen. Two hundred thousand people froze to death, leaving only five hundred alive."
Chen Weizheng found his words interesting and laughed.
The young lady, who was quietly eating at the side, was unwilling and said, "You two men are really inhumane. No matter what, those are two hundred thousand lives. They're gone just like that. Don't you think it's a pity?"
"It's not a pity!" The young man said, "These two hundred thousand people are stationed at our border. They can attack us at any time. Once they attack, our death toll will definitely be no less than two hundred thousand people. Compared to that, it's better for them to die."
"It's better for anyone to die!" The young lady's voice became louder. It seemed that she was a philanthropist.
"You're in America. You don't know how much pressure the Russians' northern border has on everyone in our country!" The young man said, "Many government officials would rather not be an official than run away. Ever since General Secretary Liu announced that all government officials must be audited, there have been more than a thousand officials who have been sent in. Some areas have already entered a state of military control. If we let the Russians strut around in the north, we'll collapse without fighting! "
"It's not that dangerous!" Chen Weizheng said, "The Russians aren't that strong now. The economy has been in a slump, and Europe has been pushing them out. In the past ten years, their trade with China has been good, and their economy has recovered slightly. In the past two years, with China's economic decline, their economy has also declined rapidly. These years, the Russians and China have been in a loose alliance to fight against the Americans. Once the two countries have internal strife, the Americans will be happy. "
"The Americans don't care whether you fight or not." The young lady thought of herself as an American and said very familiarly, "The Americans are the most unscrupulous and the most realistic. If there's a loophole, they'll take advantage of it. If there's a business, they'll do it. The Americans are most willing to maintain the current state of affairs. If there's a conflict between China and Russia, the Americans will be worried about losing control of the situation. "
The young man was very happy that the Russians had died. He stood firmly on the side of China and swore to live and die with the country. The young lady was different. She looked at the conflict between China and Russia from an American's point of view, mixed with a lot of humanistic views. They found that Chen Weizheng was very calm. He was neither concerned about the conflict between China and Russia like the Chinese, nor was he like the Americans who always wanted to take advantage of the situation. Instead, he was very detached. When they asked Chen Weizheng why he was like this, Chen Weizheng said, "The northern border is very far from Shin Myung Province."
After eating hotpot, it was already past ten o 'clock. It was almost the time predicted by the American prophet. The young man and woman opposite him were going to participate in the New Year's Eve event and had already left. Chen Weizheng looked at the young man who was walking away and thought to himself, In fact, in China, most young people still have a lot of hot blood. It's just that because of the bad social environment, they were hit again and again, and the young people's hot blood gradually turned into a basin of stagnant water. They became numb to their own future, the fate of their family, and even the future and fate of their country and people.
Chen Weizheng thought of Lu Xun's "Medicine". The young man was Xia Yu, but when he grew up, he became Hua Laoshuan.
