Chapter 433 This word is bright

While waiting for Britney Spears.

Fan Wumian watched Jennifer Connelly swimming and felt that she worked out regularly and had quite strong muscles.

This woman's appearance in her early years was very much in line with oriental aesthetics. Although her appearance declined as she got older, she lived a very comfortable life.

The hotel waiter brought a glass of lemonade and received a $20 tip from him. After thanking him, the waiter did not leave and said to Fan Wumian:
"Mr. Fan, I know you are a respected and powerful Asian tycoon. I am studying at the University of Southern California and I really hope to get a part-time job and make a cameo appearance in a movie. If you are willing to help, that would be great."

Fan Wumian glanced at him sideways. He was just a white guy with freckles on his face and an ordinary appearance. There was nothing special about him.

Asked casually:

"The University of Southern California seems pretty good. How much is your tuition per year? How much can you earn per month working at the Four Seasons Hotel?"

"Working six hours a day, making $6.75 an hour, thanks to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who has spent three years helping millions of low-wage workers get a pay raise, and I heard the minimum wage may go up to $7.5 an hour."

The waiter covered his forehead and said with a headache:
"My parents only saved $9000 for my college fund, but I need $22765 a year for tuition. Although I got a loan, living expenses still require a lot of money."

With a glass of lemonade in hand, he charged Fan Wumian $19.9.

This level of income from a part-time job doesn't sound like you can buy a restaurant by washing dishes for three months.

After listening to the white guy, Fan Wumian remembered Schwarzenegger, the top Hollywood actor, who relied on his wife's family resources to rise to power and served as the governor of California for a period of time.

But when asked what he had done during his tenure, Fan Wumian had no recollection of it. He only remembered some of his masterpieces, and then said:

"The interest rates on college tuition loans in the United States are very high, and borrowing them is not a wise decision."

A white guy who was about the same age as Fan Wumian said with a wry smile:
"The skills I learned in college can improve my competitiveness when I look for a job. I finally got the offer, so I can't just give up. My roommate is very handsome and can do some manual work part-time to earn a living. He delivered food to you last night and received a nice tip."

I was wondering what the so-called "manual work" meant.

When he saw the white guy's actions, Fan Wumian immediately came to his senses and thought that it would be okay if he was just selling tadpoles, but it would be too scary if he went out to find his sweet daddy.

I have always believed that many Americans do not save money and like to spend because they live for today.

This time, Fan Wumian lived in the United States and experienced it carefully for more than a month, only to find out that the income was too low and the prices were too high, which "designed" the entire society in a way that made it impossible for most Americans to save money.

After converting into RMB, although the income of many Americans appears relatively high, their living expenses are much higher than those in many developing countries, and their lives are quite hard.

If it were just the high cost of living, it would be fine, but countless media outlets are brainwashing people, telling them that "the United States is the best country in the world", "all countries in the world are in chaos, only the United States is the most livable", etc.

Naturally, this reminded Fan Wumian of "The Truman Show".

He originally thought that "The Truman Show" was just a fictional movie, but suddenly he discovered that it actually had such a deep ironic meaning.

At the end of the movie, the director told Truman that the outside world was very dangerous and that only the studio designed for him was the safest. He never mentioned how much money the program crew had made from Truman's reality show over the past few decades, or how many honors he had received because of the show. How hypocritical.

After asking questions that interest you.

Fan Wumian thought about it, took out another $20 tip and gave it to the other party, saying:

"I'm sorry, I only need professional actors, and there are rules in the crew. I'm just an actor this time and won't easily interfere with the director and producer's decisions. Maybe you can try to learn how to act."

"."

The white guy's mentality is a bit broken.

Are you secretly complaining that Yu has no intention of helping you and is just trying to chat with you?
however.

For the sake of the $20 tip, the guy still managed to smile and replied:
"Thank you, Mr. Fan. Maybe I'll give it a try if the acting course is not expensive. I heard that you were born in a poor family. If I want to be as successful as you, what do I need to prepare?"

Fan Wumian said decisively:

"You need to earn your first pot of gold first, and then learn how to invest. Also, read more books and newspapers, eat less snacks, and sleep more."

After listening to it, the white guy pondered it carefully, thought he had realized something, and said with shining eyes:

"You mean focusing on areas worth investing in and taking care of your health will give you a chance to succeed, right?"

".Yes, that's what I mean."

After the waiter left, Fan Wumian closed his eyes and thought about something, and did not notice that Britney Spears had arrived.

Britney's hair was dyed brown and her skin was tanned into the most popular wheat color in the United States. She seemed to be trying to get rid of the naive "stupid blonde girl" image.

Although her life was not easy, she was not yet at the point of mental breakdown like in her previous life.

This must be thanks to Fan Wumian.

He received a Patek Philippe at the time and gave advice that was to get out of your comfort zone and make more smart Chinese friends.

Britney Spears did not listen to the former, but she gained a few more Chinese friends who often got together to help her with advice. She even replaced her agent with a little-known Chinese woman.

To a large extent, they became Britney's spiritual support, helping her resolve many small crises, such as getting rid of her parents' control and helping her identify scumbags.

See Fan Wumian leisurely with his eyes closed.

Britney Spears ignored several excited young people and asked him, "Are you asleep? Or are you thinking about something?"

Fan Wumian didn't open his eyes, but replied:
"I wonder why many Americans, who are so hardworking, live worse than those in poorer places. The conclusion is probably that the upward path has been blocked. Businessmen influence the decision-making of Washington and find ways to empty every penny in their pockets. The prices of education, medical care, and daily necessities are too expensive."

".You are so smart, probably the smartest person I know."

Britney Spears sat next to Fan Wumian, smiled sweetly and said:

"No wonder my friends were so excited when they heard I was looking for you. They even wanted to invite you to a party. Are you free to join? I don't think they mind having a relationship with you that ends at dawn."

"They. That word is bright."

Fan Wumian was a picky person and had seen photos of Britney partying with several of her Chinese friends on the Internet, but none of them left a deep impression on him.

I just remember that different oranges are different in different places. It seems that if you live in the United States for a long time, your appearance will become different from that of your ancestors. It may be related to your living habits, makeup and dressing, and speaking English for a long time.

There are very few actresses who can unify the Eastern and Western aesthetics. People like Liu Yifei do not actually conform to the American aesthetic.

It is precisely because of the different aesthetic standards that many Asian bachelors who study, work or immigrate abroad have successfully "picked up" some beauties in the eyes of Oriental people, and are deeply puzzled that these women do not know how beautiful they are because they were not very popular during school.

Although she is not good-looking enough, the word "they" from Britney still makes Fan Wumian imagine a lot.

Britney Spears showed an ambiguous expression and added:
"Although I don't mean that, if you go to the party, maybe there will be a chance for them to give up some of their bottom line. After all, you are so popular that no matter who goes with you, it will only make others angry."

".Do you know that when you say that, it makes me think you are very experienced in this kind of thing?"

As soon as Fan Wumian finished speaking, Britney Spears immediately shook her head and said:
"I didn't, but Paris Hilton did invite me. I guess she drank too much and wanted to have some special feelings, but I refused."

The topic became distorted after just a few sentences.

Fan Wumian was worried that if he continued talking like this, he would really have to "fly again" or "fly again" tonight and become a mere tool.

While he was still rational, he quickly changed the subject and asked:

"Forget about the party. Where do you want to take me later?"

Britney laughed:
"It would be boring to come to the United States without a party, but if you don't want to attend, forget it. I don't have a specific destination, you can pick a place you like, and I will be your tour guide."

Ps: Another year has passed in the blink of an eye, Happy New Year everyone~
