Blooming America

Since the 1960s, mankind has been full of longing for space. In 1962, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration built a manned spacecraft center in Houston for the design of the Apollo spacecraft. "Humanity in the Space Age" naturally became the theme of the 1962 Seattle World Expo.

　　 Taking advantage of the weekend, led by Bruce, Catherine and her team came to Seattle.

　　 This is the third time Catherine has come to this place.

　　 Different from last time, this time, Catherine came with her companions, and Bruce was actually in charge of negotiating business. In any case, Bruce is the CEO of the company. Now the company's influence needs to be expanded, plus worrying about his daughter, so Bruce also ran over.

　　 "Where shall we go first?"

　　As soon as she got off the plane, Lily was holding the map and thinking.

　　 "This place seems very interesting, look."

　　 Lisa gave Lily the travel guide that she had prepared in the future.

　　 "It's a tall tower, but it's completely different from Eiffel..."

　　 "That's called the Space Needle." Jenny looked through the travel guide.

　　I've never been to the Space Needle in Seattle, just like I've never seen the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

　　—Of course, this is the future.

　　 Now, the Space Needle has just been completed. This future tourist attraction in Seattle is still part of the World Expo.

"...The Space Needle was finalized after a long discussion. There are two main design ideas. The first design was thought of by the exhibitor of the World Expo, Edward, which is about a large balloon connected to the ground; The second design is just the "flying saucer" of the architect John. Although both Edward and John's designs have won word of mouth, the Space Needle was actually designed by Weida. The design of the Space Needle can withstand strong earthquakes. When the earthquake intensity is less than 9, the structure of the tower will not be a problem. In addition, the Space Needle can also withstand strong winds. A wind of 10 kilometers per hour will only shake the tower 16 mm..."

　　 Jenny is reading the introduction in the travel guide.

　　 "It looks really good."

　　 "Shall we go here first?" Lily asked.

　　 "No, let's go here first."

　　 Catherine pointed to the corner of the map.

　　 "Washington State University?"

　　 Everyone looked at Catherine in confusion, they didn't know what was famous in this place.

　　 However, only Catherine knew that at Washington State University, there is a place that can be passed down to later generations more than the Space Needle, and that is the Zhenfan Guoshu Museum opened by Bruce Lee, known as the "Sage of Martial Art".

　　 Yes, in the same month that the Seattle World Expo opened, Bruce Lee also opened his first martial arts gym. This is also a sign that Bruce Lee's name began to spread in the United States!

　　 "You will know when you go."

　　 Catherine looked mysterious.

　　 Because of the opening of the World Expo, Seattle, a city that didn't have too many people, suddenly increased a lot of people, and even the smooth traffic began to become blocked.

　　Because there are many people who own private cars in the United States, many people simply drive across the United States and come here. Catherine also has a car at home, but instead of taking a car, she thinks it’s better to take a plane...

　　 Now that Catherine has made a decision, everyone followed Catherine to Washington State University in Seattle.

　　 It is strange to say that since the United States has a capital called Washington, it is to commemorate President Washington, but to commemorate Washington, a Washington state was established in the northwest. Catherine couldn't figure it out.

　　 Unfortunately, their taxi stopped more than two-thirds of the distance.

　　 The reason is very simple-traffic jam.

　　 Although Seattle has made preparations for the World Expo, they still encountered such a thing. Looking at the long queue of cars, Catherine decided that they should walk there together.

　　Because it was a ten o'clock in the morning, it was only noon. By the time they arrived at Washington State University, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

　　 "Kate, what on earth are you taking us to see?"

"follow me!"

　　 Catherine led them to the parking lot. In an inconspicuous corner, there was a small house with the words "Zhenfan Guoshu Museum" written on it, and there were some unintelligible letters below it. But Catherine can understand it. It is in traditional Chinese, which also means "Zhenfan Guoshu Guan".

　　—During his second year of college, Bruce Lee rented a corner of the parking lot on the campus as a martial arts hall, and hung up the sign "Zhenfan Guoshu Hall". He would not move from here until a Japanese-American named Kimura Takeyuki provided him with a place. In fact, Takeyuki Kimura is also a very famous person.

　　 "Hello, beautiful girl."

　　 This is a black man who looks a little cautious, with a tooth missing from his mouth.

　　 Bruce Lee does not seem to be here.

　　 "You are...Jesse Glover!"

The name 　　 suddenly appeared in Catherine's mind.

　　 Yes, he is Bruce Lee's first disciple!

　　 This black man is a little strange.

In fact, now is a time when racial discrimination is very serious. Glover’s teeth were lost by the white policemen who provoked trouble. And because he is black, there is no way to defend his rights, not at all. Like the United States 40 years later.

"You are?"

　　 "I'm looking for Mr. Bruce Lee... Oh, Mr. Li Zhenfan!"

　　 Bruce Lee is the stage name, and Li Zhenfan is his name.

　　 "Do you know my master?" Glover looked at Catherine strangely.

"you guys…"

　　 Just then, another person came over, but it was a white girl.

　　 If that's right, this person is Bruce Lee's future wife Linda.

　　 "Linda, what's the matter?"

　　 "Someone is here, it's three girls."

　　 "Girl?"

　　 The distant voice gradually approached, and then a typical Asian face came over.

　　 "Hey, Mr. Li, do you remember me? Thank you so much for saving me last time!"

　　 Watching Li Zhenfan come over, Catherine greeted her excitedly.

　　 "You are...oh...you are the one at Christmas that year..."

　　 One year later, Bruce Lee had a vague influence on Catherine.

　　 "Kate, who is he?"

　　 Lily suddenly asked in a low voice.

　　 "Everyone, I would like to introduce to you my savior, Mr. Li Zhenfan. At Christmas in the 60th, I was almost forced by someone to be rescued by Mr. Li. His Chinese kung fu is amazing!"

　　 It's a pity that the English word "Kung Fu" will not appear until a few years later with Bruce Lee's fame. Now, they still don't understand what "Kung Fu" is.

　　 But the first half of Catherine's sentence has already taken them by surprise.

　　...

　　 Thunder and burned the router...tragedy.
