Chapter 1036 Don't cause trouble, don't be afraid of trouble!
On December 25th, the entire United States celebrates this day.
At this time, as long as you walk out of your house, you can see Christmas trees in every house. Every house is festive and joyful, and everyone is immersed in joy. On this day, Chinatown is extremely popular. Countless Chinese people come from all directions and gather in Chinatown. Even many foreigners came over to enjoy the shows in Chinatown.
American police officers can be seen on both sides of the street.
Their faces were tense, as if they were facing a formidable enemy, for fear of something happening in Chinatown.
When countless Chinese people gather, disputes can easily arise.
Outside Dading Restaurant, Li Zhen, Hong Yi, Tang Huaide, Asaman, Zuo Zongtang and others stood at the gate, with festive smiles on their faces. As the firecrackers sounded, the day's celebrations began. The sound of gongs and drums continued one after another, and the dragon and lion dances were wonderful. Singers and acrobats were staged one after another.
In short, Chinatown has become a sea of joy.
Li Zhen felt the festive atmosphere and was very happy in his heart. From the smiles on the people's faces, it could be seen that the people in Chinatown were living a good life. Li Zhen followed Hong Yi, Tang Huaide and others, and followed them around. Hung Yi took everyone around Chinatown. Every time he went to a performance place, Hung Yi would introduce it to let Li Zhen know about it.
This introduction took a long time.
I didn't finish watching all the programs in the whole morning.
At noon, Li Zhen, Hong Yi and other people returned to the gate of Dading Restaurant. This time the celebration was not held inside Dading Restaurant, but on a street outside Dading Restaurant. Hong Yi , Tang Huaide, Asaman and others invited all the chefs in Chinatown together and started making flowing banquets.
Tables are placed on the streets for people to sit on and eat. All Chinese people can have a free meal. There is no doubt that this is a big deal.
To celebrate, Tang Huaide, Asaman and others didn't care about this little money.
Li Zhen, Zuo Zongtang, Huang Qiang, Hong Yi, Tang Huaide, Asaman and others sat at the same table, along with several other businessmen and squires. Tang Huaide sat on the right side of Li Zhen and said with a smile: "Big President, this is the time when the people of Chinatown are having lunch with you, and it is also the first time that people from abroad have seen you. Please say a few words to everyone."
Li Zhen nodded without objection.
Tang Huaide immediately stood up and said loudly: "Please be quiet, everyone. The president has something to say, so be quiet, everyone be quiet."
Soon, Chinatown gradually became quiet.
At the last moment, Chinatown was bustling with people, like a prosperous world, noisy and lively.
At this moment, it is as pure as a glass world, and you can hear a pin drop.
Everyone's eyes fell on Li Zhen, waiting for Li Zhen to speak. Li Zhen stood up and glanced at the countless people in China Street. Looking at the unfamiliar faces and the same skin color, he felt excited in his heart. Incomparable.
He took a breath and said loudly: "Today, I can meet all the fellow countrymen and elders in Chinatown, and I have the opportunity to talk to you here, thanks to Master Hongmen, Tang Huaide, Asaman and other gentry businessmen in Chinatown."
"Chinatown cannot exist today without them."
"The brothers and sisters in Chinatown cannot be united without their leader."
"Because of people like them who dare to stand up, Chinatown can form a whole and not be bullied by foreigners, so that the folks who come from China can have a place to stay; because of them, countless folks who are scattered abroad can gather together. Together, we can be as close as brothers, and become people who are not real brothers but are better than real brothers; because of them, people from more countries know about China and this magical country."
"Here, on behalf of the country, I thank them."
Li Zhen turned around to face Tang Huaide, Hong Yi and others, and bowed respectfully. Hong Yi, Tang Huaide, Asaman and others looked ashamed and waved their hands in humility.
However, because of Li Zhen's persistence, they finally accepted Li Zhen's bow.
After a while, Li Zhen continued: "Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Villagers from all directions gather in Chinatown. This is fate. It is also fate that I can appear in Chinatown to gather with you. For this rare fate, please, I will do it first as a token of respect." ."
After saying that, Li Zhen picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
"President, I like you, I love you so much. Because of you, we have more confidence."
"The president is so arrogant, he is a man, and I did it."
"I originally thought that the president would be an old man, but I didn't expect him to be so young and handsome. It's a pity that my daughter is less than five years old. Otherwise, my children would be betrothed to the president. It's a pity, it's a pity..."
People in Chinatown drank wine and talked among themselves.
There was a roar of people and constant laughter.
Li Zhen raised his hand and pressed it down. After the people saw it, they gradually became quiet again.
Li Zhen paused for a moment and then continued: "I would like to take this opportunity to have dinner with you to say a few more words. When you go out, rely on friends. The Chinese in Chinatown are gathered from all over the world. I hope that now, Tomorrow and in the future, Chinatown will be a united whole, without internal strife, and a family that loves each other."
"We are a group. Others don't dare to fight. Even if someone dares to fight, we can beat the hell out of him. If someone else fights, there will be internal fighting in the family. It will be a slap in the face."
"The Chinese are the descendants of the dragon. We are here in San Francisco and in this part of the United States. There is no need to lie down. We are dragons crossing the river. We are people with confidence. Don't be afraid of anyone. No matter where you go, you will be safe." Stand tall and stand tall in your conduct. At any time, I stand behind you, and China stands behind you."
"You are not alone, you have someone behind you."
"I hope that the Chinese in Chinatown, the Chinese in San Francisco, and even the Chinese on this land can be united and become a whole forever."
Li Zhen glanced at the people one by one, waved his hands, and continued: "China is a country of etiquette. Chinese people do not take the initiative to cause trouble, so I hope that Chinese people everywhere should be polite and reasonable. However, we do not "Causing trouble does not mean being afraid of trouble. You must be a confident Chinese. In a word, be reasonable and reasonable. If you really can't be reasonable, the other party is an idiot, and then beat his mother with your fists."
As soon as the words fell, Hong Yi, Tang Huaide and others immediately applauded, extremely excited.
For a moment, there was thunderous applause.
When Hong Yi looked at Li Zhen, admiration flashed in his eyes. He said to himself that only the president could tell so many great truths, and he would definitely not be able to tell them.
Because of Li Zhen's words, the banquet became extremely lively.
The banquet ended at three o'clock in the afternoon.
Tang Huaide approached Li Zhen and said in a low voice: "President, we have arrangements for you to follow us to Hong Lou Meng. That is the place to watch performances and it is the most elegant place in Chinatown."
Li Zhen blinked, wondering if it was really elegant.
The old gentleman spoke in a lowered voice, as if he didn't want others to know.
