American Entertainment 1982

"Martin, do you know why when that producer, Stephen, let every hapless guy bring an assistant, I chose you? Because you're from Miami, I love Miami, I love Little Havana, I love hula dancing in hula Hot Cuban girl dancing!" Tommy walked down the plane gangway in the shape of a tank top, beach pants and flip-flops, and while blocking the hot sun with his hands, he looked at Martin, a black man who was carrying two large suitcases behind him. said:

"So, how long does it take us from the airport to the famous Little Havana?"

Martin followed Tommy off the plane and put the suitcase on the ground: "Boss, I have to explain something clearly. There is indeed Little Havana in Miami. When I was in Los Angeles, I also introduced myself to people from Miami, but I actually have little Havana. Havana is completely unfamiliar to me, and I have never been to it. The place where I grew up is called Port-au-Prince, also known as Little Haiti. Cuba and Haiti are two hostile countries. Cuba uses Soviet banknotes to pursue communism, and Haiti holds American banknotes resolutely oppose communism, and the United States has completely different attitudes towards Cuban immigrants and Haitian black immigrants. Cuban immigrants enjoy better welfare than blacks. Both hated Americans, but were on good terms with each other...well...like Soviet soldiers and American soldiers."

After the two got off the plane, four or five people carrying cameras and radios followed closely behind, and Old Page was among them.

"That is to say, you can only take me to Compton Miami, where black people are everywhere. Shit, when you were in Los Angeles, you boasted that you got two Cuban girls in one night. I want to see all kinds of Cuban hot girls. I don’t want to go. Little Haiti, I'm going to Little Havana," said Tommy.

Martin chattered after Tommy, "Black people also have hot girls. I have a cousin who I can introduce to you. But boss, the two of us together only have 50 yuan in cash. If you don't eat or drink, Staying in the cheapest hotel can probably last for two nights, but the premise is to go to Little Haiti to find my acquaintances. For my sake, they will not require us to pay deposits and taxes, otherwise we may have to pay Go to a Haitian refugee camp and find an empty tent for the night."

Tommy ignored Martin's urging, but turned to look at the follow-up group team in charge of his group: "Hey, if something is not suitable for broadcast, you will make sure it is deleted, right?"

"Yes, sir." Nick Peterson, the head of the filming crew who followed the filming, had just adjusted the machine at this time, raised his head and agreed with affirmative tone.

Then he came over to Tommy and introduced the script he had mastered: "Mr. Hawk, according to our general plot design, you only need to go to the Catholic Church on Twelfth Street in the South District to rely on relief food to satisfy your hunger. A place to spend the first night where you can express your love for the poor..."

"Don't feel sorry for the poor, I was poor before my mother, and I don't want to repeat that terrible life again, anyway, I like to do whatever I want, I will show my vision of the American dream, I will not beg you to give me more money for the show , I can do whatever I want, you can shoot whatever you want, whether it can be played or not is none of my business, that's it, now you can go back to that machine, Martin, call a taxi, and let's go."

"To the little Haiti I'm familiar with?" Martin asked uncertainly.

"Go to Little Havana to see Cuban girls." Tommy put his hands in the pockets of his board shorts and walked forward.

Martin followed closely with two suitcases, and followed: "When I was in Miami, I heard that there was a relief center in Little Havana that would give out impending food from high-end restaurants to the poor, boss, damn America People, Little Haiti doesn't serve impromptu food in fancy restaurants, it's discriminatory."

The program group who followed the filming hesitated, and looked at Page who seemed to have nothing to do with him: "How can I convince you, the boss, to cooperate with our filming?"

"Listen to him." Page lowered his head and lit a cigarette, and said calmly.

Then, he signaled the film crew to follow up with him.

Yes, Tommy, who happened to be free for a few months, couldn't dispel Stephen's enthusiasm in the end. He thought that the American positive energy rich man program he came up with would definitely win the Emmy Award for Best Reality Show in the American TV industry.

In addition to Tommy and his assistant Martin, there are two groups of people who were captured by Stephen. One group is Jason and his assistant girlfriend Suzie, and the other group is Stephen's brother at the same time in the Stanford Order of the Phoenix.

Jason was dispatched to San Saramento, a small town in California, and the other group was sent to Little River City, Washington State. In fact, according to Stephen's original plan, he planned to send Tommy to Alaska. He didn't want to see Tommy flourish. Just want to see Tommy in the wild.

Although according to the publicity of the program, these people will need to support themselves in the next time, showing how to change from a poor man to a rich man again, but in fact, even Stephen, who firmly believes that he can win an Oscar, does not believe that the United States Poor ghosts can really easily realize the American dream and become rich.

For this reason, they designed a lot of realistic-looking script plots, and arranged extras in those cities. Basically, as long as they follow the prompts of the filming crew, they can get the help of those actors and well-wishers, and finally, step by step, Accumulate wealth slowly, become rich, and realize the great American dream.

However, Tommy was not prepared to live in the terrible group dormitory provided by the church according to the requirements of the program group. He chose Miami for vacation, and the program was just incidental.

When the taxi stopped in Calaocho, the center of Little Havana, Tommy couldn't wait to open the door and get off, leaving Martin to pay the fare with a painful face.

This is Little Havana, Miami, which is called the "Capital of Latin America" ​​by countless Latins who immigrated to the United States.

At this time, the tourists and pedestrians who were simply active in this central square made Tommy feel that there were more people than the entire population of Warwick.

Along the street are full of Cuban style, stone-walled shops with Baroque-style covered bridges, the surrounding air is filled with the aroma of cigars and coffee, and there are many beautiful girls in Latin-style costumes, shuttling gracefully in the square, salesmen Every time the various small commodities in the store run a little faster, they can arouse large groups of pigeons flying in the square.

Now New York is still in the cold season, here is full of tourists from the northern part of the United States who come to the south for vacation, either holding up their cameras to shoot non-stop, or sitting in an open-air coffee shop tasting Latin American handmade coffee, or sitting on a bench grabbing a cup of coffee. Bread crumbs are fed to those pigeons who seem to be completely intimidated by people, but who are too overweight to fly.

Some Latino street artists fiddled with various musical instruments around the square, playing bursts of melodious rhythms, and some even danced to the music, performing a dance with a strong sense of rhythm.

"This is a vacation." Just as Tommy was sighing, a beautiful girl wearing a straw hat and cool attire let a large area of ​​fair skin be exposed to the sun, and her complexion should be Hispanic Caucasian, walked quickly to Tommy, Show him the pallet of goods in your hand, which contains small commodities such as cigars, sunglasses, and carved wood trinkets.

The girl slowly inserted a fully packaged cigar into the groove on her chest, and said generously to Tommy with her chest upright:

"Want to try an authentic Cuban cigar? Sir? You can choose it yourself. Pick one up if you like it. Welcome to Havana."
