Rewrite the Technological Landscape

One of Meng Qian’s biggest hobbies when traveling is to chat with the locals. In the early years when he traveled, he could gain a lot of interesting things. However, with the continuous development of the tourism industry, commercialization has become more and more serious. I can no longer find the feeling of traveling. A lot of the enthusiasm from the locals is just for business needs. Sometimes I want to understand something in depth, but I find it is full of routines.

Just as Meng Qian went to New York's Chinatown in later generations, he felt that commercialization was actually very serious, but today in San Francisco's Chinatown, Meng Qian found some long-lost feelings. The state of life.

So he became more interested in this place, because he felt that he could see the real thing here.

Coming out of Liji Wonton Shop, Meng Qian noticed that there were many farmers’ markets on the roadside. When he went to New York’s Chinatown in his later generations, they were mostly restaurants and shopping malls. Farmers’ markets were rarely seen. “Why are there so many vegetable sellers?”

"The supply is in short supply. Everyone wants to buy vegetables and make their own. I have lived in the United States for 10 years and I am still not used to it." Luo Gaoyuan explained.

At this time, Meng Qian heard the sound of a basin falling to the ground.

"What do you mean, am I short of half a catty and one liang of money from you? Say there is something wrong with my scale? Come on, you can take it to another place to be weighed. If there is a problem, I will give you my head today."

Meng Qian noticed that none of the onlookers went up to persuade him, "Why didn't anyone go up to help?"

"That grocery-shopping guy doesn't look like this at first glance." Luo Gaoyuan said firmly.

"Why are you so sure?"

"The residents of Chinatown will never doubt Aunt Yang."

"Maybe it's the newcomer?"

Luo Gaoyuan smiled meaningfully at Meng Qian, "There are no newcomers in Chinatown."

Meng Qian was interested in this, and just about to ask, a figure suddenly flashed in front of him, which startled him.

"Get out!" A woman yelled, and Meng Qian saw that the figure that had just flashed by was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.

"What's going on here?"

"When couples quarrel, don't worry about it."

"Chinatown is very lively." Meng Qian smiled.

"It's not lively now, and the control is getting stricter and stricter. If you want to quarrel in the future, you probably have to hide at home."

Going forward, Meng Qian saw a lot of people gathered together, and when he got closer, he saw that it was two old men playing chess.

"This game is over." Meng Qian said very quietly.

"Boss Meng knows chess."

"I used to bet a lot when I was in school, and I even won a championship in school."

As soon as Meng Qian finished speaking, the two old men who were playing chess raised their heads and looked at him. They didn't expect such a low voice to be heard, and one of them asked, "From China?"

Meng Qian was a little surprised, "How does the old gentleman know?"

"There are no chess games in American schools."

Meng Qian suddenly realized, "Yes."

"Do you want two dishes?"

"OK."

Meng Qian hadn't played chess for a long time. As the former Jiang Da Xiangqi champion, he had to perform well. Fifteen minutes later, Meng Qian was killed three times in a row very beautifully.

Looking at the chess pieces on the chessboard, Meng Qian was stunned, no matter how good he was, he wouldn't be able to do so well.

"Mr. Meng, Mr. Hu is the honorary chairman of the China Chess Association." Seeing Meng Qian's bewildered look, Luo Gaoyuan quickly explained.

"Chess Association?" Meng Qian finally realized, "Then I'm really making a fool of myself."

The old man smiled and said, "Although your chess skills are average, your chess skills are still good."

Meng Qian expressed his admiration by fitting his hands together, "By the way, I'm curious to ask a question, has our chess been applied for world heritage?"

"Not yet."

"Why is this? I heard that Korea is going to apply for the Dragon Boat Festival this year. Why does our country feel that it doesn't pay much attention to the application for the World Heritage?"

"Hahahaha." The old man smiled heartily, "Young man, this is because you don't understand the situation. It's not that our country doesn't pay attention to the application for World Heritage, but it's just that we can't apply."

"Huh? How do you say that?"

"There is a queue to apply for the World Heritage. How many successful applications do you think a year?"

Meng Qian thought for a while, "It seems that there are not many."

"According to the relevant regulations of UNESCO, a state party can apply for up to two world heritage sites each year, at least one of which is a natural heritage. At the same time, a world heritage refers to the rare, Irreplaceable wealth is cultural relics and natural landscapes of outstanding significance and universal value recognized by all mankind.

Therefore, for the vast majority of countries in the world, there are not many things that can apply for world heritage, and some countries may not have any at all. However, because of China's 5,000-year history, it has left too many precious cultural resources, which can and need There is also a lot of content to apply for. I can tell you responsibly that it is now 2005 and the 21st century has just begun, but the queues for world heritage applications proposed by various places in China can already be queued for the next century.

Therefore, it takes a long time to queue up for cultural heritage such as chess. As you mentioned that Koryo State applied for the Dragon Boat Festival, it is actually normal. Because our country has too many things to apply for, the Dragon Boat Festival is still queuing. But there are only so many things that Koryo country can apply for the world heritage, so he was preempted by him, which is actually the same thing. "

"The reason for the emotional quarrel for a long time is because our historical wealth is too strong."

"So some things are preemptively applied for by other countries, especially countries like the Neon Kingdom of Korea, which have a certain degree of historical overlap with us. To be honest, it is completely expected, unless we can make UNESCO fully Modifying the rules of the World Heritage List, but this is not realistic."

"I see." After chatting with the other party for a while, Meng Qian stopped staying and continued shopping.

After walking to the two roads, Sun Manyu started to pull Meng Qian's hand again. It turned out that he saw an entertainment city. Meng Qian took Sun Manyu into the entertainment city. There were many games with Chinese characteristics in it.

Meng Qian also had such a place when he went to Chinatown in New York, but it was more modern, and there were more than half of whites and blacks in it, but now almost all of them are Chinese.

After playing with Sun Manyu for more than half an hour, there was a sudden noise outside. Meng Qian and Luo Gaoyuan were curious, when a young man rushed in, "Brother Luo, it's great that you're here! There's a fight outside!" Already!"

"what's the situation?"

"It's also a few gangsters who came out of nowhere, and they smashed the boss's shop without paying for the meal."

Luo Gaoyuan's eyes turned cold, "Mr. Meng is sorry for things that don't have eyes, I'll leave for a while."

"Go." Meng Qian understood clearly from the side, picked up Sun Manyu and followed him to have a look.

The law and order situation in the United States is well known in the world. Judging from the data, there are not many cases of shootings, but there are really a lot of things like fighting and robbing QJ, especially at night, XD, drunk , all came out in a mess.

The law and order in San Francisco is at the middle-to-high level in the United States, and it is also a relatively chaotic place. On the edge of San Francisco is Oakland, which has always occupied the top two crime rates in the United States.

Going back, not far from Liji Wonton Shop, Meng Qian saw more than a dozen foreign men confronting several Chinese-faced young people outside a restaurant.

"Don't move!" Luo Gaoyuan roared, and all the young people retreated behind him, "What's going on?"

"Brother Luo, these guys beat people without paying for their meals."

"What about the square?"

"Fang Ju just went back a few minutes ago, but Xiao Daozi has already called."

Only then did Luo Gaoyuan look at the foreign men in front of him, "It's only natural to pay for meals, so pay quickly!"

Meng Qian found that Luo Gaoyuan spoke English quite fluently.

But the gangster definitely couldn't give the money, so he picked up the wooden stick in his hand and came towards Luo Gaoyuan. Luo Gaoyuan dodged sideways gracefully, moved his elbow, and pushed his elbow against the gangster's chest, knocking him out .

"This Luo Gaoyuan knows real kung fu." The bodyguard beside Meng Qian whispered to Meng Qian.

The other gangsters were not afraid when they saw this, they rushed to Luo Gaoyuan together.

Just like someone said, real fights will not be fought one by one like in TV dramas. Several people came up and hugged Luo Gaoyuan directly. Fortunately, the young people around Luo Gaoyuan also reacted quickly, one by one. Kicking the three people rushing towards him away, Luo Gaoyuan pulled out cleverly and punched each of the people who were holding him.

"Roger?"

Luo Ge gestured to the people around him with his eyes, "Don't get involved, just stand aside!"

The person on the opposite side charged again. With the experience just now, Luo Gaoyuan carefully dodged and shot continuously. Meng Qian couldn't help taking a few steps closer. Just like what the bodyguard said, Luo Gaoyuan has real kung fu.

A dozen gangsters were brought down one by one by Luo Gaoyuan in a short while, and when they got up again, they obviously started to panic. Seeing the timidity of the younger brothers, the head of the gangster shouted, "This is America!"

As soon as the words fell, the scene was silent, and Meng Qian noticed that everyone's faces sank, but the gangster on the opposite side seemed to feel very refreshed, smiling and ready to speak again.

Just at this time.

"Crack!" A Chinese cabbage hit the man's head directly, followed by Meng Qian, who heard a familiar voice. It turned out to be the wife of the couple who quarreled before, and the middle-aged aunt ran away wearing slippers. In front of the leader of the gangster, he gave him a big mouth, "Ah, you are a big dog!"

After the aunt slapped her, several aunts in the farmer's market next door followed her, "I'll let you, let you! Go ahead!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" The aunt chased the gangsters around in circles, because there were more and more people watching, and they couldn't get out.

"There's a hole over there!" A gangster found a hole in the chaos, rushed over but bumped into something and fell back.

The gangster rubbed his head and got up and looked forward.

I saw a few butchers joining the battlefield with big knives in their hands. The uncle who had been told to leave by his wife looked at each other fiercely, "Little brat, this is Chinatown!"

A few minutes later, when Fang Yuwen brought a few policemen to the scene, the dozen or so gangsters were already bruised and swollen. After going through the process and understanding the situation, they were going to take everyone to the police station.

"President Meng, I'm really sorry." Luo Gaoyuan looked at Meng Qian with an apologetic face, "I have to go to the police station first, you see."

"It's okay, Manman and I will continue to hang around, and come to me after you finish dealing with it."

"But, if Mr. Meng doesn't mind, why don't I ask my friend to come over, I'm afraid you may not be familiar with this place."

"Don't worry about me, don't worry." Meng Qian smiled knowingly, "This is Chinatown."

Thank you for your reward for watching the genuine version!
