Chapter 549 Big Dream
After sending Seifert back to his home, the three took a taxi back to the villa.
"Sister, I'm hungry, go make something to eat." As soon as he got home, a hungry Leon opened the refrigerator, but it was full of drinks and the food had just been finished.
"What do you want to eat?" Luo Quan drank juice all night and was a little hungry himself.
"Whatever, as long as it can fill your stomach." Leon has never had any special requirements for food.
"What about you, Mia, do you want to eat something?" Luo Quan asked Mia who was sitting on the sofa next to her.
"Um...just make a vegetable salad." Mia thought for a while and said.
Ten minutes later, Luo Quan came out with two vegetable salads and two egg sandwiches.
The salad was hers and Mia's, and the sandwich was Leon's.
"You girls eat really light to lose weight." Leon picked up the sandwich and took a big bite. In addition to fried eggs, it also contained bacon and ham, and the fillings were quite rich.
"I'm just losing weight recently. I haven't exercised much in the past time and have gained weight." Mia explained with a smile, then stuffed a piece of tomato into her mouth.
"By the way, what does Miss Mia usually do?" Luo Quan asked while eating. She was quite interested in getting to know Mia.
"I follow my grandpa as a venture capital investor, and occasionally speculate in stocks, but compared to my grandpa and dad's business, it's just a small business." Mia pulled a tissue and wiped her mouth before speaking, quite elegantly, and Luo Quan, who was eating lettuce, was in sharp contrast.
"What I'm saying is that compared to your grandfather's net worth, the operations of most stock investors in the world are just trivial." Leon laughed, "But before you said that your major in college was sociology, why should you go there? What about financial business?
If you’ve long wanted to do business, why not study a business-related major in college? "
"My thoughts may not be understood by most people." Mia smiled softly, glanced at Leon, and finally stopped at Luo Quan, "But Luo Quan will definitely understand."
"What do you think?" Luo Quan shouted for a spoon and blinked.
"America is sick, and I want to cure her."
Mia talked about a grand dream in an understatement. When Leon heard this, he even stopped eating his sandwich and looked at her with his mouth wide open.
Mia looked at Luo Quan and said seriously: "This is something you can only dream of if you can write "This Is America"."
Luo Quan was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Anyone who watches the news should be aware of the current problems in the United States, but most people are just confused."
"Yes, they are all pretending not to see it." Mia nodded and sighed: "Originally, I thought that by studying sociology, I could figure out why this society is sick and find solutions.
But later I discovered that this cannot save the United States. Sociology is too macro and too theoretical, so I plan to focus on reality and solve the most important problems, such as ZZ discrimination and the gap between rich and poor. "
"So this is why you joined the business world?" Leon finally understood.
He knew from his sister before that there are two types of businessmen in this world, one is the capitalist and the other is the people's entrepreneur.
According to Mia's thoughts, the latter should be what she wants to be.
Mia whispered softly: "Actually, the economy is okay. After all, in most areas of the United States, even homeless people can have their daily lives guaranteed.
The most important thing is how to solve ZZ discrimination. This is the most acute problem in the United States at present. I have thought about it for a long time and don’t know how to solve it. "
Listening to Mia's words, Luo Quan sighed in his heart.
Unexpectedly, this girl who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth actually still has the world and her country in her heart.
It's just that her ambitions are too ambitious, and the person she wants to treat is already terminally ill, so it's impossible to succeed without strong medicine.
Luo Quan did have some suggestions. China has always had a shortage of "dragon slaying skills", both ancient and modern versions.
However, considering the environment in the United States, if Mia is really allowed to learn and implement it, I am afraid that it will not be long before she is shot in the back more than a dozen times and commits suicide.
Luo Quan still liked Mia who had such an idea, but she couldn't instruct Mia to jump into the fire pit.
"Luo Quan, what do you think about this matter?" Mia knew that Luo Quan was a native of China, and she had always wanted to know more about this country with a completely different system from the United States.
She wanted to know why the people there were so united, why the security was so good at night, and why they hated the capitalists so much.
"Your idea must be good, but the direction may be a little wrong." Luo Quan said, poking upwards with his finger, "If a person goes the wrong way, the problem is definitely not the feet, but the brain. After all, That’s the center that controls the body.”
Mia immediately understood the meaning of Luo Quan's words: "You mean, the US government?"
"Obviously." Luo Quan nodded and said: "As a Chinese, I usually see the most US government news on the Internet, and seven out of ten are news about your officials criticizing and blaming others.
The two parties are holding each other back. Isn't it nonsense to try to govern the country well?
Also, is there really nothing wrong with the electoral system where a businessman can become president? "
Mia asked: "You mean, if we want to solve the problem, we should start from the government?"
"You have to judge this for yourself." Luo Quan smiled helplessly, "After all, I am not an American, and my understanding of the United States is one-sided and stereotyped after all. You have lived here for so long, you should be able to make something better than me. A better decision."
Having said this, Mia fell into deep thought for a long time, her eyes sometimes confused and sometimes bright.
Next to him, Leon had finished his sandwich and took out his phone to scroll through Twitter.
Although he now lives in the United States, he also works and studies in the United States, and spent most of the first half of his life here.
But he is actually a British man and has no intention of naturalizing in the United States, so how to solve the American problem actually has nothing to do with him.
"It's really rewarding to chat with you. I hope we can have more opportunities to communicate in the future." After thinking for a while, Mia stood up and thanked Luo Quan.
Originally, when Mia came out this time, she wanted to meet Leon and develop a relationship with him. She didn't expect to have such a fruitful chat with Leon's sister, and she got a lot of enlightenment, which can be said to be full of rewards.
Luo Quan responded with a smile: "If you have the opportunity in the future, you can come to China to play. Maybe you can gain more in China."
"I will definitely go!" Mia said seriously, then said goodbye to her siblings and left the villa.
"You two are so awesome. The descendants of two capitalists are here discussing how to overthrow the largest capitalist country in the world." After Mia left, Leon couldn't help but start complaining immediately, "It's lucky that the FBI didn't press the surveillance button at home. , otherwise we will have to come here and arrest you two for investigation soon."
"Comrade Lyon, I think your ideological consciousness still needs to be improved." Luo Quan glanced at his brother and said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Although Mia and I are descendants of capitalists, we ourselves are devoted to the people. "
"You mean those black people?" Leon chuckled, "If you turn towards them, they may not necessarily turn towards you."
As the young underground rap emperor in New York, he has dealt with the black group a long time ago, and he knows their character very well.
Trying to influence these people with the great idea of benefiting the world is no less difficult than trying to persuade a tiger to become a virgin.
Can tigers be vegetarian? A tiger that does not have the enzymes to digest plants in its stomach will only die if it becomes a vegetarian, so this is completely impossible.
The same principle applies to a considerable number of black people.
Quite a few of them are conservative. Leon actually wanted to use most of them, but considering that his sister's current reputation among the black community is pretty good, it might be better if she were to be the Virgin.
If it's Mia, that's not necessarily the case.
Mia was born as a pure child of American capitalists, and she was in the financial industry that made no productive contribution to society.
If you open a factory, a ranch, or something like that, exploitation is still exploitation, but at least it provides jobs and supports a large group of workers.
But what contribution does finance and stock trading contribute? Everyone is trying their best to cut off the hard-earned money of the leeks. To put it simply, the vampires are flattering them.
Hearing his brother's words, Luo Quan wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to give an example.
Although Leon's view is a bit extreme, if you think about it carefully, it is really the case.
However, she still feels that when a group has such a problem, it is definitely not entirely their own fault. There must be external reasons at play.
Black people have such a bad reputation now, and white people in the United States are also one of the culprits.
Again, if ZZ discrimination is not abolished, disputes and injustice will continue to exist.
It's easy to say, but extremely difficult to do. After all, Luo Quan, a "perfect person" who is called a moral pioneer by the outside world, actually doesn't have much favorable impression of black people in developed countries.
The money she donated abroad basically only went to two places.
One is the Middle East and the other is Africa.
Looking through history on my phone, it seems that there is no one named "Martin Luther King" in this world, and no one has done the same behavior as him.
Therefore, without even the basic soil to solve the problem, it is no wonder that Lyon thinks this is an impossible task.
"But no matter what, it's always good to have dreams. How many great undertakings in the last century were initially ridiculous dreams that people said were unrealistic?" Luo Quan was silent for a while and said this. .
"Of course I respect this dream, but if you want me to contribute to this dream, you have to let me go back to the UK first, and then we'll see if it's worth it." Leon smiled sarcastically, "After all, life is precious , Sister, you should also know the saying that a gentleman should not stand behind a dangerous wall, right?"
"It seems that you know a lot about Chinese culture." Luo Quan looked at Lyon in surprise. She really didn't expect that he would pick up famous Chinese quotes one after another and use them so accurately.
Leon smiled and said: "My father asked me to learn it. He said that China is developing rapidly and will be on par with the United States in a few years. If you learn more knowledge now, you may have to go to China to beg for food in one year."
"Thinking too much." Luo Quan chuckled, "You, who have been hanging out with gangsters since you were a child, are definitely bad artists. As long as someone finds out about your experience in China, you will be banned within three days. All of you will be banned. I have to promote my work to you!"
"Is it so serious?" Leon said he couldn't understand, because his upbringing was very strict. When he got along with the gangsters in New York, he was very careful. He didn't touch anything they gave him, and they just exchanged rap skills together. This would also Banned?
Luo Quan said seriously: "Can't you understand? But in China, it is so strict. Many behaviors that seem to be no problem in the United States are red lines in China. If you are caught, you will be banned without discussion. If it is serious, Still have to go to jail.
Therefore, if you really want to live in China in the future, it is recommended that you read the Chinese Constitution first. "
"Let's talk about it later. I'm allergic to words now." Leon said as he rubbed his temples.
Harvard sent him an email some time ago, asking him to prepare for the exam. If his grades are not up to standard, he will not have credits, and if he does not have enough credits, he will have to drop out.
Lyon still wanted a diploma from Harvard. In order not to drop out, Lyon had been reading books and reviewing every day for the past few days. After forgetting to eat and sleep for more than half a month, he finally passed the exam.
Otherwise, the Albert family has good genes. Not only are they all good-looking, they also have very good IQs and can learn everything quickly.
After Lyon passed the exam, Seifert directly started a trending Twitter search to create hype, marketing Lyon's character as a top student, and once again gained a large number of fans and praise from the society.
Although he was prosperous on the surface, only Leon himself knew how miserable he was privately.
The more than half a month of surprise review really exhausted almost all his energy. In just ten days, he was more tired than when he held fifty concerts in a row across the United States.
After passing the exam, Leon retaliated by burning all the books, crying while burning them.
As strong as he is, he was indeed forced to cry by the complicated and awkward knowledge points in the book.
From then on, he became temporarily allergic to books and other things. Whenever he mentioned the word "study", he would get goosebumps all over his body.
ps. The United States, politics and the like are mentioned here, mainly to foreshadow the future plot of the protagonist in the United States. If book friends don't like it, you can directly give your opinions, and the author will try to adopt them and make adjustments.
Thanks to the book friends who carried the book coins from Jing Li’s hometown, thank you very much!
