Regardless of whether this is the third most popular issue among netizens, the host said it is.
At the scene, Jiang Wen looked at Emily and Nina with a playful expression. Liu Jialing had no expression but also looked at the two of them. Liu Yifei had a normal expression, but Liu Yawen looked a little worried. The latter was very clear about the direction of the Internet and was worried that his boss's wife would say the wrong thing.
Although Liu Yifei is a little naive, she is not stupid. She knows one thing clearly: none of these boss ladies who are her teachers and friends are simple characters, especially Sister Amy. Even Marina, Zhuo Yisi and Luo Ruier who are in charge of the technology company, D Station and entertainment company respectively, almost obey her every word.
And even if she said something wrong, so what? She knows some of the boss's family background. Talking about what happened in the United States might make her seem like she is worshipping foreigners, but just talking about the interpersonal relationships in the mysterious country are all things that cannot be mentioned here (dog head).
……
"All aspects, but I'll start with one thing that is the result, and it's something most of you don't know or have never heard of."
When asked about this topic, Emily kept smiling and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"That was seven years ago, in 2015. At that time, Obama was still the president of the United States. Of course, everyone knew him, but he was an old acquaintance of our family even earlier. We had a good personal relationship, and Yifei also knew him..."
At this point, not only the studio, but also the Internet was very surprised. Although not many things happened in this world in 2023, causing the reputation of the United States to fall to the bottom in the minds of the people of the mysterious country, unlike several parallel time and space, many things also happened. For example, the rise of the mysterious country is inevitable, which will inevitably affect the overall situation of the international distribution of interests. The intensification of trade frictions between China and the United States is also inevitable. The decline of the traditional status of the United States and the entire Europe is also a development trend... However, the President of the United States is still the majority.
To have a good personal relationship with someone who is superior to others in people's eyes is indeed something worthy of boasting and honor.
"Ah, I think a lot of people know this. In Yifei's transformation work "The Accidental Assistant", Mr. Ma Aubameyang once played a guest role as a lawyer in the top law firm in Peanut County. Even the hotel owner who only had one shot was elected as the President of the United States for 4 years. It is unprecedented that two consecutive presidents of the United States appeared in one movie. This was regarded as a famous scene by domestic film and television commentators and has been mentioned countless times."
Without waiting for Liu Yifei to respond, the host answered for her. Liu Yifei smiled but said nothing.
Emily nodded and continued, "My family has a good personal relationship with him. Sometimes when we go to the United States, we visit each other. That year he mentioned something to us. It was a bill that he advocated for passage in Congress, and he also told us some of the background of this bill. Because it was not a glorious thing, the media did not hype it up, and the outside world was basically unaware of it. Moreover, it was legislation and did not involve confidential information, so you don't have to worry about the program not being approved or being silenced by agents or something like that."
At this point, there was laughter in the studio again.
When the laughter died down, Emily raised her hand to take an oath, "Let me tell you first, my family has nothing to do with this bill. We just heard it from Ma Aubameyang. So if you want to criticize something, go to Twitter and tag Ma Aubameyang."
The studio burst into laughter again. Everyone who understood what this meant would know.
"That bill is mainly aimed at the United States, and it imposes sentencing and punishment on biological analog experiments and virus research. In the United States, it is an unprecedented initiative since the founding of the country - well, to put it bluntly, it is an unprecedented initiative since the founding of our country."
The entire studio and online comments were gradually becoming serious and paused because of the first half of her sentence, but they were successfully amused by the last half.
But the laughter soon died down, as this topic was very heavy.
"The year before that, an unusually severe influenza virus broke out in many states across the United States. I think many people know this news. At that time, many states closed their borders and carried out biological and chemical counter-terrorism operations that were not exercises. The number of direct and indirect deaths was also reported in the news. I will not go into details."
In the studio, except for Nina who remained seated, everyone nodded, because this incident caused a big stir back then. If the United States had not reacted in time, as some "public intellectuals" boasted, reacted quickly and acted decisively, and decisively cut off the possibility of the spread before the epidemic developed, and had ninety-nine medical ships... Well, okay, this really didn't happen. In fact, the United States would not react as quickly as the public intellectuals boasted, because there were not many, but a large number of ordinary people in key positions who were affected by the "suggestion" without knowing it. Although the spread of the epidemic was successfully blocked, many of these ordinary people who should have been heroes did not end up well. Unemployment or even poverty is the best outcome for these people. The bad ones were shot six times in the back, or committed suicide with rifles.
In addition, first of all, this is a parallel universe, not something that happened in this universe, so please don't take it personally. Secondly, this matter has nothing to do with Yang Sheng, except that after discovering a virus leak in a certain castle, he temporarily and urgently mobilized a large number of spellcasters or non-spellcasters from the Crown Eagle Mountain Rescue Team to carry suggestive spell props and enter the scene. Through a series of operations, he successfully blocked the virus within the United States, and there was no chance of it becoming the well-known infection or the second Spanish flu.
In addition, this is not a deliberately fabricated plot. If you pay attention to the local news where the virus castle is located, you will find that in the past few decades, virus leaks have frequently occurred in that place. Local residents have even become accustomed to it and have become victims of "brainwashing control."
Back in the studio, Emily's speech continued.
"…The investigation report on that accident is confidential information. Ma Aubameyang is a very ethical person, so he didn't tell us about the investigation report. But in connection with this, I'm telling you the story of how the bill was established, so…"
Emily did not state her inference, but changed the subject, "... Let me tell you another fact that is not confidential information. It can be found in many channels. The United States has more than 200 biological or virus laboratories around the world, and has never signed the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Chemical Weapons."
"In 1932, the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) conducted the infamous Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment on 400 African American men. They injected these people with syphilis virus in the name of vaccination and concealed the fact for 40 years. Although an apology and remedial measures were made in 1997, no one has been convicted for the crimes of human experimentation and virus experimentation."
"In 1977, due to media exposure, the U.S. Navy was forced to admit that they sent two warships carrying huge nozzles to carry out Operation Sea-Spray off the coast of San Francisco in 1950, spraying Serratia marcescens and Bacillus sphaeroides into the air. This was carried out six times, and 6 monitoring points were set up in the surrounding areas to ensure that 43 local residents inhaled millions of units of bacteria, which led to an abnormal increase in local pneumonia cases in San Francisco that year, and more than a dozen people were hospitalized for severe urinary tract infections, and at least one person died as a result."
"The same 1977 investigation also forced the U.S. military to
They admitted that in the past 22 years, they had carefully selected 239 densely populated areas in the United States and conducted 239 tests on the effectiveness of germ warfare, using substances such as phenol, anthrax, and other high-risk mixtures, as well as powerful carcinogens such as zinc chromium sulfide.
"In 1956 and 1957, the U.S. military released millions of mosquitoes carrying dengue and yellow fever viruses into two towns in Georgia and Florida, causing hundreds of local residents to suffer from fever, respiratory diseases, stillbirths, encephalitis, and many deaths. The researchers also pretended to be medical experts rushing to the rescue, took photos of the victims for archiving, and evaluated the results of the experiment."
"From 1963 to 1969, in order to test the power of poison gas, the US military set up stowaway points on the waterway and sprayed various biological and chemical agents on ships transporting Vietnam War soldiers, including VX nerve gas, sarin gas, zinc cadmium sulfide, sulfur dioxide, etc., causing thousands of soldiers to inhale them without knowing it. Some were poisoned and sick, and some had deformed offspring. The authorities admitted that they had done these things, but denied the consequences and shifted the blame to Agent Orange used in Vitenum."
"In all the cases I mentioned above, no one has been punished by law. The cases I mentioned are only crimes of biological and chemical virus experiments committed in the United States. A small part of them must have been committed abroad if there are domestic ones. For example, in the Great Ying Empire and Kannada, it has been confirmed that the US military and other institutions have conducted virus and biological release experiments in those places, and the authorities have also admitted it. As I mentioned before, the United States has more than 200 biological and chemical and virus laboratories in different regions and countries around the world."
At this point, Emily looked at the host and said, "You just asked me why my family gave up the United States and settled in the mysterious country. I think these are enough, right? Again, this is only a small part of the reason."
The host was dumbfounded, and not only her, but everyone present except Nina was dumbfounded, including the staff outside the studio, the director, and most of the online viewers.
Because this is a live broadcast on all platforms, in addition to the mysterious country, there may also be a large number of foreign netizens.
Those who could understand Chinese and read the subtitles were all dumbfounded.
Because this world has not experienced the second epidemic event of the "Spanish Flu", although there are frictions in Sino-U.S. relations, they are not as tense as in Time and Space Zero, so various media and self-media have not dug deep into the United States's black material. This has led to the fact that in the minds of most people, the United States is still the "city on the hill" surrounded by countless halos and praises.
And now, listening to Emily, a pure "American", telling all these negative stories about the United States, if she was not a pure, authentic American, I am afraid that most people would refute it immediately even if they were not present at the scene, because this is too different from the preconceived impression in their minds.
But the person who said this was an American, and he also gave detailed names of the actions and the places and methods where verification could be carried out, which made it impossible for these people to refute, and those who were quick to act had already begun to verify along the clues.
The results of the visit naturally left them speechless.
0097
Everyone in the live broadcast room had a buzzing sound in their heads. Even Jiang Wen, who was very experienced in all kinds of things, didn't know what to say. Although he had shot many banned movies, he was still an artist after all. The practice of the United States using its own people for biological and chemical virus experiments exceeded the lower limit of his understanding of human nature.
People like Liu Jialing, who migrated to Hong Kong from China in her early years and who naturally have a fondness for "foreign countries", were even a little at a loss after hearing Emily's words.
This also includes Liu Yifei. However, her husband Liu Yawen, because he has always attached great importance to ideological construction and has participated in the internal courses of "Traveler Entertainment" throughout the whole process, was also surprised and shocked by these bad things in the United States, but he did not feel like his faith collapsed like Liu Jialing and Liu Yifei.
Fortunately, there was no need for them to speak at this time. This talk show was not a prank show to expose anyone's misfortune. Emily's speech continued.
"Those behaviors mentioned above are still within the control of the state, but in recent years, there have been... well, how should I put it, those plots in Hollywood movies, where the research results of some private foundations and companies show signs of being out of control. So Obama forced the passage of that bill at the time. His purpose was to put a noose on those who, in the words of our country's netizens, were anxious to hang themselves on the street lights, so that they would not really get out of control and cause bad consequences."
After a pause, she continued, "The other reason started twenty years ago, around 2000 or 2001, when our family decided to settle down. We were a little tired of the hustle and bustle of big cities, so we chose to go to a more remote state to purchase property. At that time, Lucas... oh, that is, our Lao Yang, bought a very large farm. Although it is very remote, it takes more than an hour to drive for shopping or to go to school in town. However, these are very common in the United States, because some states have low tax rates, and sometimes residents of neighboring states will deliberately come to this state on weekends for centralized purchasing. Many materials in the daily lives of Americans are also highly industrialized and can be stored for a long time. This kind of thing is very common in the United States."
Emily explained: "In terms of study, Lucas and I, as well as several family members in our family,
Many experts and professors in the field of professional knowledge are not as good as us, so we don’t care about the quality of the school…”
At this time, Jiang Wen suddenly said: "I originally wanted to say it was an exaggeration, but when I thought about the fact that Yang Sheng is the founder of 'Traveler Technology' and you are the main creator of Y&A Studio, I felt that it was not an exaggeration."
Liu Yifei recovered from the shock just now. After hearing what Jiang Wen said, she said, "It's not an exaggeration at all. Because I received fighting and fitness training from Sister Amy, I lived in their house for a long time, so I know their family situation very well. Their children don't need to go to special interest classes or specialty classes. They can play piano and violin from an early age."
Jiang Wen nodded, and Liu Jialing exclaimed, "Wow."
However, Jiang Wen discovered a new blind spot and asked Liu Yifei: "Hey? Why is Emily your coach? Shouldn't it be Nina? She is a professional action director."
Liu Yifei replied: "Although Sister Nina is very skilled, she is not good at teaching others, so Sister Amy gave me professional guidance and advice, and Sister Nina acted as my sparring partner."
Jiang Wen suddenly realized and said "Oh", Liu Jialing sighed: "Your qualifications as a coach and sparring partner are too luxurious, not to mention ordinary people, even the rich can't enjoy it"
Liu Yifei laughed innocently.
When their interaction was over, Emily continued:
"…Although I was born in an ordinary small town, the situation in the town is very different from that state. My family and I have basically lived in the city before, and we don’t know enough about the real situation in that state. But overall, we were quite satisfied with the ranch at the beginning."
"American farmers or ranchers generally own tens of thousands of acres of land. Their lives should be much better than those of ordinary people in China. Maybe they are even worse than the rich. But from what you say, it seems like there are a lot of problems here?" Jiang Wen asked.
Emily nodded. "Nowadays, the Internet is well developed, so you should know that the United States is a country with serious class divisions. It has densely populated areas, high levels of industrialization, and high levels of community. Such places are not so bad, except that the crime rate is also a bit high. As long as you don't become a molecule in the statistics, then for the vast majority of people and immigrants, the relatively high work remuneration is enough to smooth out most types of social contradictions and inconveniences, such as the various discriminations and high crime rates that have never disappeared."
"But it's not the same in remote areas. The living conditions and daily life rules there are very different from those in big cities. Let me summarize it this way. Big cities still have a certain degree of democracy and rule of law, but the rules they use are no different from those in the early West..."
"I'm afraid it's still hard for you to understand what I'm saying. Let me give you some specific examples and you'll understand. Wait..."
As she spoke, Emily took out her phone and searched on it. Jiang Wen took this opportunity to ask a question that might attract the attention of some interested people:
"How come you have so much stuff on your phone? Why did you prepare so much content just to participate in this show?"
"That's not the case. This is a function similar to a network cloud. I can sit here and access our home network through my mobile phone. There is also a dedicated server. This was built by our old Yang. Whether it's him, me, or anyone else in the family, we all have this need."
"Oh, so that's how it is. Then there should be a lot of high-value items in your family network?"
"That's about it. Some of Lao Yang's designs and many of the games he made are all in there. My music works, both those that have been made public and those that have not, are also in there. There are also a lot of documents and information about the group company, as well as the technical details of all the more than 200,000 patents are also stored in there."
Jiang Wen couldn't help but grin and smack his lips after hearing this. Nowadays, everyone knows how valuable a good patent is, especially the patent of the "Traveler Group".
Soon, Emily imported some pictures into the online TV. Through the online TV, in addition to the on-site host and guests, they can also be shown to the audience in the live broadcast room for viewing.
"The first case happened not long after we arrived. One day when we were driving out for shopping, we encountered an old white man who was accidentally beaten to death by a drug dealer who came to collect the debt for a drug debt incurred by his grandson. Although there is no habit of growing marijuana leaves in the place where we settled, there are many such incidents in many remote states or agricultural states, especially those where marijuana leaves are legalized."
A worker brought over several IPADs for the guests to use, so they could freely browse pictures on the Internet TV. This case was very ordinary, nothing to say. Yang Sheng and his friends did not take pictures of the deceased's body out of courtesy. Emily only showed screenshots from local TV stations and newspapers.
However, the second case was a bit horrifying. It was about a missing girl from a nearby reserve. The girl's body was gnawed beyond recognition by wild beasts, and the body of a criminal was burnt to a charred state. Even the blurred picture of the bones with sparks on them made people frown.
"The second case happened in an Indian reservation closest to us. Several white people drove to the reservation. If they encountered a lone girl, they would kidnap her and sexually assault and insult her. The bestial perpetrators would often kill the victim. This kind of case often happens in the reservation. White trash with potential criminal intent... Such people are usually called trash, regardless of the reservation, us white people or other ethnic groups.
They enter and exit quickly via the highways. Most of the reservation is wilderness, so this type of crime is difficult to prevent and detect in advance. Usually, family members will call the police after something happens. After something happens, because the police on the reservation usually do not have the power to enforce the law outside the reservation, as long as the offender can leave the reservation in time, the police on the reservation can only call state-level or higher-level law enforcement agencies to investigate and arrest, but in most cases, the criminals cannot be caught. "
"The bodies we are seeing now are those of the white trash who committed the crime in this case. Although they escaped from the reservation, they were caught by the neighboring county and sent back to the reservation because they had a good relationship with the county. The reservation then carried out a lynching without any trial. They were just confirmed to be the murderer who insulted and killed the girl and then executed her. To be honest, the pictures I am showing you now were all secretly taken, but the statute of limitations has passed, so it doesn't matter if they are leaked. However, I still censored the pictures of the livestock police. We just want to understand the current situation of the local society."
Since Emily talked about the dark history of the United States, the host has been silent. After hearing Emily's introduction, Jiang Wen wanted to speak, but she asked first:
"Although lynching without trial is very... well, very inconsistent with the legal norms advocated by our country, if those people are really criminals, it is not considered a wrongful killing. And you are white... Is it because you are worried about Mr. Yang's identity as an Asian?"
"No, that's not what we're worried about. Although Asians rarely appear or gain a foothold in this agricultural state, Lucas is not one of them. In fact, we are neighbors with the largest local rancher, and we have a very harmonious relationship..."
"Wait a minute," Jiang Wen interrupted, pointing at a picture and saying, "What's wrong with this picture? Is it photoshopped?"
The director put the screen of his IPAD on the screen of the live broadcast room, and everyone saw that it was a photo of Yang Sheng riding a huge brown bear. There was a similar picture on the Internet, which was a spoof photo of Russian Emperor Eugene the Great riding a bear.
Emily laughed, and many people laughed too. Why? They were talking about a serious topic, and suddenly this photo appeared, which created a sense of dramatic conflict. Emily was the first to laugh, so people naturally laughed.
"It's not fake, it's real," Emily replied.
"So you guys raised this bear?" Jiang Wen asked.
"No, it's a wild North American brown bear."
"Wild? If it's a wild animal, how dare your Old Yang sit on its back and ride it like a mount?" Jiang Wen didn't believe it.
"It's really wild, and it harmed several cows on the neighboring ranch. Our ranch didn't have time to buy livestock so there was no loss. Our Lao Yang... forget it, I'll just call him Lucas. It's up to you. I always feel like calling all of us old is a bit too much. Our Lucas encountered this bear while taking a stroll one day, and then he beat it up. Later, he encountered it a few more times and finally subdued it. It should be completely tamed, so it's okay to ride it like this."
"Wait a minute, you got it wrong, right? It was this bear that beat up your Lucas? With a bear of this size, I'd think it would be tough even if Li Kui and Wu Song came. The tigers they fought were all South China tigers, which are not big in size. They can't compare with this big one." Jiang Wen obviously didn't believe it. In fact, few netizens who saw the long photo believed it.
Emily also joked with him, "Look, Lucas later founded such a big company, and it has been doing well all these years. He also gave the Yang family many branches and leaves, and they are living well. I think it was him who beat up the brown bear at that time."
At this time, Liu Yifei's eyes lit up. Thinking of the video of Yang Sheng boxing in the locust tree forest that she had saved in her mobile phone all these years, she immediately believed Emily's words and raised her hand and said, "I, I, I choose to believe Sister Amy. Our boss should be able to beat the bear."
"No one is as good as you in flattering your boss. That bear is not something that can be beaten by human power. With its size and height, I estimate that it is over 4 meters tall when it stands up. How can a human beat this thing?" Jiang Wen said teasingly, obviously still unconvinced.
Liu Yifei looked at Emily and asked expectantly, "Sister Emily, can you show us that video?"
"Which video?" It had been so long that Emily had forgotten about the video.
Liu Yifei reminded: "The part where the boss was doing boxing," and even did the starting posture of "Yang Style Tai Chi" on the sofa.
Now Emily remembered, but after thinking about it, she shook her head and said, "Forget it. It doesn't matter whether Lucas has ever fought a bear before. The topic now is not about fighting a bear."
"Oh," Liu Yifei was a little disappointed.
Others were very curious. Liu Jialin and Jiang Wen asked, "What boxing video? This is a variety show and we are not in a hurry. Why don't we show it to others?"
Liu Yawen also looked at his wife. Liu Yifei thought for a moment and said, "I'll listen to Sister Amy," and then whispered to her husband, "I'll show you in private when we get back."
Emily smiled and refused: "Let's wait for a chance in the future. We plan to do several episodes of this interview program. Now let's get back to our previous topic."
0098
The atmosphere was eased somewhat by the "bear riding photo" gag.
Jiang Wen sighed: "I didn't expect the countryside in Lao Mi to be so chaotic"
Liu Jialing said
: "Does that kind of thing happen often in reservations? The way they deal with it is a bit like in the past. If there is something, it is not handled by the police (meow) and the court (meow), but by the village elders' council. It is hard to imagine that this kind of thing will happen in the United States. No wonder Amy said that their laws are completely different from those in developed areas of big cities. It is indeed very similar to the situation during the early westward movement."
Jiang Wen looked at Emily and asked, "If that's the case, then why don't the media report it, and why do people always promote the safety and advancement of Europe and the United States?"
Emily says: "Survivorship bias"
Now is different from what it was a decade ago. Now is the Internet age, and information... at least Chinese Internet information is well developed, so there is no need for special explanation, and many people know what this word means.
The development of information here means that the Chinese Internet is at least not so "milky", and there is still a lot of high added value in the information it disseminates.
"Another reason is that the Chinese people and foreigners like us have become desensitized to their vicious incidents."
"Let's talk about survivor bias first. The US has a special website that counts shootings. The address is here. I'll have the director show it on the big screen. If you're interested, go and watch it yourself. For example, excluding the 2.3 or so people who commit suicide by gun every year, last year's homicide data was **
**people"
"Compared to the total population of 4 million, this is only a percent probability. If suicide is included, it is only percent. Survivorship bias means that as long as it doesn't happen to you, it is just a statistical number, or even false data. Moreover, most shootings occur within a fixed range and are related to public security and crime."
"For example, I am a white girl. My parents work in a safe place and live in an upscale community where economic crimes are usually committed. My school is a private school. As long as I don't go to some high-risk places, unless I am unlucky enough to meet the Texas Bell Tower sniper and become his random target, then shootings will only be news on TV for me for the rest of my life."
"Oh, I understand," Jiang Wen suddenly realized. "You mean that the United States you mentioned and the United States some people mentioned are both the United States, but they are two sides of the same coin. You tell everyone the real side, while those people promote the good side after beautifying it."
Emily smiled and nodded. "Ten years ago, when the economy was good, many cities didn't need very good communities, and the public security environment was generally okay. But now... In addition, as I mentioned before, a white face can cover up a hundred flaws. In the United States and many other countries, the time-sensitive jobs pay well, and the high income automatically covers up other problems."
