American Entertainment 1982

Stacks of documents were randomly loaded onto Dennis' Jeep, leaving the police to block the door to prevent wild boars from escaping the factory. Dennis drove these documents and ran towards the government building.

The photographer obviously didn't notice Dennis's departure, and focused on the more attractive factory. After all, Kevin and Frank were wrestling with several white security guards at the moment.

In Dennis's car, apart from the documents, only Chris and the family's former county tax commissioner were rummaging through the documents.

When the car drove all the way outside the government building, Tommy, Stephen, David and others who had been waiting here for a long time gathered around. Tommy stared at Chris who was still flipping through the pages even though he parked the car:

"How about it?"

"It can be confirmed that they evaded taxes, but they only evaded the taxes of this country, and did not want to evade the part that should be paid to the United States." Chris held up a document and handed it to Tommy, and said in his mouth: "This The copy is the ledger of the sugar factory to record the money owed by the workers."

"The black people are being squeezed as slaves. The news was leaked by its opponents. Even the president can't save Bolton Sugar." Stephen said with affirmative tone.

"Go up and take pictures, and give them to the lawyer to take away." Tommy signaled others to help carry the documents upstairs: "The original documents must be kept safe, I guess they will come to ask for them soon, we can't offend them, we must return them in full."

As Tommy expected, in less than an hour, the person in charge of the sugar factory brought the factory security personnel to the government building, demanding the return of the various books that had been forcibly taken away.

"It was you who lacked enough respect for us first! We did this!" Little fat David said to the person in charge with a straight face: "You didn't notify us in advance of the power outage, this is punishment!"

"Do you want punishment? Let the real prime minister of this country stand up, and I will show him who is punishing more than 6,000 workers who have lost their jobs." The person in charge said in a stern tone: "I don't care whether you are Summer camp or other programs, in short, the factory is not a place for children to play around, hand over the books, I will allow you to steal electricity to play games, or I will let more than 6,000 unemployed workers come here to listen to your explanations.”

David seemed to be frightened by his tone. He lowered his head and exhaled at this time. Stephen walked in from the door: "David, ask Chris to return the account books to them."

"Stephen~" David looked at Stephen, a little unwillingly: "He doesn't respect us."

"Then teach them to learn to respect." Stephen stood beside David, put his hands on David's shoulders, and at the same time looked at the person in charge of the other party with a blank face: "Zoe found a document, the United States promised to assist here 20 million US dollars, but it has not been cashed, we are now contacting the United States, if the other party does not pay back the money, according to the contract, we can close the factory."

"You can go and get the account books, but just wait, we will look for you soon." Hearing Stephen's words, David regained his energy and said provocatively to the other party.

...

Caribbean Sea, Barbados.

At the US embassy in the Caribbean, Zoe waited elegantly in the reception room, next to Kevin who helped provide security.

"Miss Zoe Winters, when I called home my kids loved your summer camp show, but I didn't expect you to show up in front of me, especially Zoe, my wife kept praising you and saying you She is the best example of a little lady." A young employee of the embassy walked into the reception room with a smile and greeted the two of them: "I am Jody, secretary of the embassy."

Then he waved his hand towards the camera lens responsible for recording: "I will also appear on the scene, right?"

"Mr. Jody, I have called countless times before and proposed to summon Ambassador Edward Bolton." Zoe shook hands with the other party, and then asked seriously: "But there is no response every time."

"Mr. Edward has returned to China for a physical examination. If you have any questions, can you tell me?"

"Then why don't you guess what I'm going to say next?"

"I think, the financial aid?" Jody laughed. "Come on, boys, that's a lot of money. When the United States does this kind of thing, there is a formal and cumbersome process. It's not like between friends." Is it that easy to give a gift, is that good, let's put that question aside, but I can personally tune in two TVs from the embassy, ​​and when I give gifts to the cabinet of high school students, you can take them back to that country, they will definitely appreciate it your efforts."

"We're talking about something serious, aren't we, Mr. Jody?"

"I don't think it should be taken too seriously. It's like a joke. After all, you brought the photographer of the entertainment show."

"Maybe it's a joke for America, but it's a disaster for this country."

Zoe lowered her head and raised it slowly after a long time: "I wrote on the personal information I applied for the summer camp that I don't want to be a well-behaved and sensible lady in the eyes of others, and I don't want to show my face when others speak ill. A good girl who smiled and said she didn't care, I wanted to change from the first day I joined the summer camp, but I was discouraged and told me to wait for a better opportunity, and now I am sure that this is the opportunity I was waiting for."

"what are you saying?"

"I'm not going to say any more, American bastard! I'll let you know how a model lady does bad things!" Zooey slammed the coffee in her hand at Jody, and then threw the coffee cup on the ground: "I hope your wife Seeing this on TV, I will still praise my mother as a lady worthy of all girls to learn from."

...

"Zoe made a big fuss at the U.S. embassy, ​​and is now being detained in the embassy, ​​waiting for her parents to pick her up and return home. More than a dozen newspapers have already called Lincoln High School, hoping to interview us." Tommy Hawke looked at us with a cigarette in his mouth. To Stephen.

In the past few days, most of the time, other people frequently appeared on the scene, while Tommy hid in his office, keeping a low profile and calm.

"This shows that your goal of attracting attention to the farce has been achieved, and it's my turn to appear?"

"Yes, get ready to go to Washington. I'll let those newspapers go to Washington to interview you and Zoe. I've used everything I can think of." Tommy exhaled and leaned lazily on his chair: "Call your father, He should have a way of making sure the whole thing feels like a comedy."

"Tommy, we should rely on ourselves." Steve frowned slightly: "You command very well, there is no need to use other forces."

"Don't get me wrong, Stephen, I know your father is a well-known person. I didn't think about using his power, but I just need his help to deliver a message."

"what news?"

"To put it simply, it is to inform them in advance to give them a buffer time, so as not to be speechless in the face of your questioning, so that they can blame everything on the British."

Stephen picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number: "Dad, I hope you have time to watch the Neil Children's Channel recently."

"I saw it. Even the newspapers introduced the new program. You are the chancellor of the exchequer, but you don't seem to have any opportunities to appear on the screen. Son, the chief of police, the minister of taxation, the minister of the interior and even the minister of defense are more attractive." Stephen's father He laughed and joked on the phone.

"How is grandfather?"

"As usual, lying in a coma in the hospital ward, using a machine to support life, don't be too sad. Your grandfather has been living like this for seven years. He was trapped in that bed and couldn't move. Don't be too sad about his death."

"I'm not sad, because I haven't seen my grandfather a few times since I was a child. I just want to ask, I am already eighteen years old. As an heir, am I qualified to take some adventures that I want to do?" Stephen said calmly asked into the receiver.

"That depends on what kind of adventure it is, Stephen."

"I'm going to Washington on behalf of St. Vincent to attend the weekly meeting of the Organization of American Cooperation. The Reagan administration promised to pay St. Vincent 20 million in aid in exchange for the country's sugar industry, but the sugar industry was taken away and the United States did not pay. I am going to the weekly meeting as a representative of St. Vincent to condemn the United States and urge them to fulfill the contract."

"Wow, you are much better than those students. This is what you should do. Before, I was worried that you would catch wild boars and steal wires like them. Don't worry now."

"Yes, I want to go to Washington to play house, and then I think you can help me pass this news to the other party, so that they will not be speechless when they arrive."

"Going to Washington to play house, did you come up with the idea?"

"So, I don't seem to be able to think of this idea?"

"Of course you can think of it, the thinking is very clear, son, politics is like this, the art of compromise, you impress me."

Stephen hangs up the phone in disinterest, and looks at Tommy: "I didn't realize until just now that he praised me for the first time with admiration. However, this is not what I thought at all."

"You must have thought of it, because no one else can even get in the door of the Washington Conference Hall."
