Star Tycoon

Chapter 205 Lighthouse Olympics

This summer, Tian Er San Girls' Home distributed a lot of movie tickets.

Many girls from small towns and nearby villages went to the cinema for the first time, and ate popcorn and drank refreshing fruit tea there for the first time.

They watched the fantasy film Harry Potter in the movie theater, and watched foreign blockbusters from across the ocean in the dark theater, their eyes full of focus.

At this moment, they were not much different from the girls in Beijing.

Tian Er San Girls' Home has only been open for less than a month, but it has already become the most popular place for girls in Taoyuan County.

From little girls to teenage girls, they come to play whenever they have free time.

Here you can enjoy free ice cream, free chicken legs, free fruit tea, sit in the air-conditioned restaurant and watch TV for free, and even go to the cinema to watch movies for free.

You can also receive money and daily necessities!

For many left-behind girls, a monthly allowance of 100 yuan, along with notebooks, mechanical pens, food and drinks, clothes, shoes, sanitary napkins, and a monthly bus pass, is a huge help.

August 20th, Samba Capital Stadium
This is the Olympic football championship match between the United States and Brazil.
Football is not among the top three most popular sports in the United States; the top three are rugby, basketball, and baseball.

Fourth is ice hockey, and football can only be considered fifth.

However, ever since the golden goalkeeper Lainer and the golden striker Gru became famous, the fans' enthusiasm has grown as the football team's performance has improved.

Under the protection of bodyguards, Tian Ersan entered the best viewing area.

The stadium is almost full; all 78,000 seats are occupied.

If you include those who crowded together and cheered enthusiastically, the number must have exceeded 80,000.

"Tian, ​​over here!"

John Smith waved to Tian Ersan.

Tian Ersan walked over and sat down next to John Smith's wife, Leanna.

On the other side of John Smith sat his vice president, a male rocket expert.

This row of seats, along with the three rows in front and behind, were specially reserved for a very distinguished group, including some European royalty.

Even royalty can only sit in the back row; this is the age of capitalism.

After casually sitting down, Tian Ersan asked, "Didn't Holly come?"

John Smith said, "He said he would watch the live broadcast."

Tian Ersan looked around and saw a dozen or so enthusiastic women dressed in American-style clothing standing on the steps in the middle of the seats in the distance.

Tian Ersan had been with many women wearing Stars and Stripes underwear, and this time in the Samba Country, he wanted to find women who could dance the samba.

"Are you free this afternoon? There seem to be a lot of girls here," Tian Ersan asked flippantly.

With an indifferent expression, Leona said with dissatisfaction, "We have to go back to the company this afternoon to discuss things. If you want to meet pretty girls, you can chat with the beauty next to you."

When they were outside, the two weren't as close as they were in Watermelon Town, where he could freely touch her melon.

At this moment, Leona and John sat together, a handsome couple, enjoying each other's company.

At Leanna's introduction, Tian Ersan looked at the beautiful woman next to him, a white woman wearing a black suspender dress.

The beautiful woman sat with her legs crossed, showing off her long, beautiful legs and well-developed breasts that accentuated her halter dress, making it appear as if she wasn't wearing a bra.

Tian Ersan had just seen her, but he politely ignored her.

"Hello, I'm Christina Boltz." Christina extended her hand to shake hands with Tian Ersan.

She was a beauty, but Tian Ersan was also a handsome man, especially since he knew many beautiful actresses through his relationship with Mr. and Mrs. Smith, so he was never short of women.

Tian Ersan reached out and shook hands, saying politely, "Hello, my English name is Tom, you can just call me Tom."

“Okay, Tom.” Christina nodded with a smile and looked back at the arena.

Christina didn't come to watch the game alone; her brother and father were with her, but the two of them didn't greet her.

The fact that Leanna spoke to Christina like that just now clearly shows that she doesn't take this woman seriously.

The Smiths are now the rising stars of the United States.

John is still busy with company affairs, while Leona has gone into politics to make Cotton Town and Watermelon Town rich, and to let the people of the Lighthouse use American-spangled underwear made by the people of the Lighthouse themselves!
Leona's career path is clearly political. Once she succeeds in Watermelon Town, coupled with her image as a virtuous wife and loving mother, she is very likely to challenge for the position of Grand Chancellor.

It's unlikely that it will be possible to stop this couple; they already have a large number of supporters and a solid base of supporters.

The only saving grace is that Leona is only twenty-seven years old and needs at least another ten years, so she doesn't pose much of a threat to people now, and therefore they haven't had the heart to offend these two celebrity couples who have a large number of supporters.

Some veteran politicians in the United States may send people to kill, but they are certain that the dead and their families will not retaliate.

Attacking Mr. and Mrs. Smith would only invite retaliation from a group of gunmen!

After learning about the couple's wealth and influence, many socialites from high society tried to gain entry into their circle.

They used to be able to fit into Holly's circle, but now the Smiths' circle consists of top talents, including some with lower educational backgrounds, and they are very picky about appearance.

Christina's family is in the investment business. Her father, who is sitting nearby, is a top investor. Although he is not among the top 100 richest people in the United States, he still has a fortune of five or six billion US dollars.

Their family is certainly not short of money; they possess what most people consider financial freedom.

However, the Smiths were not short of money either, and there was nothing to say to these parasites of capital.

As the crowds surged into the stadium, the match time drew ever closer.

When the Lighthouse team, who had won every battle, entered the arena, the entire stadium erupted in thunderous cheers.

It's not just the wealthy and powerful of high society who find this prestigious competition irresistible; even people from the lower and middle classes in the US are drawn to it. Many men and women come specifically to watch the game.

Tian Ersan moved closer to the beautiful woman in her late twenties beside him. "Are there this many people? I remember football isn't a very popular sport compared to rugby, baseball, and basketball."

Christina smiled and explained, "Yes, the best result in the history of the Lighthouse team is fourth place."

"Since finishing fourth sixteen years ago, we have been eliminated in the group stage twice, and last time we didn't even qualify for the tournament."

"I thought it would be similar this time, but Lainer and Gru achieved unprecedented results last year and have come all the way here this year. Most people here probably only started to like football this year."

Tian Ersan smiled and said, "It's a real pity that Reiner and Gru are both married, otherwise they would definitely be overwhelmed by passion."

Christina nodded in agreement, in a good mood.

Both football players are in their mid-twenties, not only young and agile, but also handsome, and both are married with children.

They were both from small towns, and they all married girls from rural areas.

Unlike most athletes with promiscuous private lives, these two are traditional conservatives and are loved by fans of all ages.

Family, friendship, love, career, honor, patriotism... The two's golden combination conforms to the traditional values ​​of the older generation, and most fans are these conservatives.

Especially as the match continued, the two players, with their exceptional stamina, maintained a high level of intensity. One defended against a series of shots, while the other scored with precise shots time and time again, eliciting cheers from the crowd in the stadium.

When the game ended, everyone stood up and applauded, regardless of their wealth, status, or seating position.

The United States won the championship with a score of 9-0, demonstrating the formidable strength of the world's number one power!
Gru and Reiner ran a long lap around the football field together, holding the lighthouse flag and cheering for everyone. After circling the field, the two embraced their wives, showing amazing strength and endurance!

At this moment, the whole country rejoiced, and countless men and women from the United States who had taken out loans to buy plane tickets to come here shouted and cheered wildly!

This year has been a year of flourishing for the United States, with successes in film and television culture, sports, science and technology, and aerospace, inspiring a strong sense of pride in countless Americans!
Faced with a tremendous sense of accomplishment, spending also increased dramatically; people took out loans to buy plane tickets and to come and watch the games.

Some of the women wearing Stars and Stripes underwear were so moved they cried!

Many socialites and journalists from China also came to cover this exciting moment.

Next came the awards ceremony, where each team member received a gold medal and a trophy.

Reiner and Gru stood together in the center, holding the trophy, while the coaching staff stood in the back row.

After the team members took photos, it was free time before the event ended, and everyone went over for a group photo with smiles on their faces.

The Smiths and Tian Ersan went over, and Christina's family also wanted to go over, but they weren't part of that circle and hadn't been invited.

When Gru saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith coming over, he smiled and hugged them to greet them.

Men hugged each other, and women greeted each other with smiles.

All three couples were in pairs. Seeing this, Tian Ersan quickly said, "Let's have another woman take a picture together, otherwise it will be too awkward for me to be alone."

Gru laughed and said, "You're right, you should get married soon too."

Tian Ersan shrugged and quickly waved to a Brazilian female fan, who pointed at herself incredulously.

After being confirmed, the girl ran over amidst cheers and blessings from a group of people nearby.

The four temporary couples quickly took their positions, two in front and two behind. Tian Ersan stood on the left with an unnamed Samba beauty in his arms, while John Smith and his wife stood on the right. Two football players and their wives sat in the front row, holding trophies and taking photos.

The woman leaned intimately against Tian Ersan and even took a selfie with him kissing.

After the competition officially ended, the Smiths and the two athletes' couples attended a banquet and press conference held locally.

Tian Ersan then went back to the hotel to talk with a female fan whose name he didn't know and whose language he couldn't understand.

Domestic reporters and fans have also discovered this young man who was once known to everyone in the country.

The whole world knows that Tian Ersan was having a great time, and everyone knows that he cheated on his wife while she was pregnant.

This has no impact on Tian Ersan. Tian Ersan has always had a bad reputation in this regard, and there is no need for any additional condemnation.

Everyone knows he has many women around him, and no one has ever regarded him as a loyal and devoted husband.

Mu Xiuying selected several batches of beautiful women for him and worked tirelessly to help him manage the company and run the large enterprise.

The United States' Olympic performance was actually not ideal, with its total number of gold medals surpassed by China.

But nobody cared about the other events; everyone just wanted to win the football championship.

After winning the football championship 9-0, the other events no longer mattered. The whole country was cheering, as if they had won a foreign war.

The commercial value of football has risen rapidly, and the commercial value of other male and female athletes who won gold and silver medals is less than one-tenth of that of the two football champions.

The other athletes also won Olympic gold medals, but even the champions in popular sports such as basketball, gymnastics, swimming, and track and field were forgotten in the corner like underlings, and their commercial value was greatly reduced.

It's not that the people of the United States are fickle; rather, many of the stars in other projects are mercenaries.

This time, two top white athletes supported John Smith, and they were both homegrown athletes.

He is not a naturalized Black athlete, nor a mixed-race Beacon of Light, nor an athlete purchased or hired.

These are two homegrown athletes, true beacon of hope!

He's good-looking, young, and not the kind of athlete who gets tattoos, does drugs, or messes around. He's the kind of traditional, conservative athlete that everyone likes, and who'll get married and have children.

The people of the beacon nation firmly believe that trash will gravitate towards trash, and that outstanding individuals will be surrounded by other outstanding individuals.

John Smith's circle is very clean: scientists, athletes, newly rich, aristocrats, farmers, and artists—the kind of people the Beacon should support!

The patriotic fervor brought the Smiths even more attention and also secured a massive number of endorsement deals for the two golden athletes.
