Knights in the big world of American TV series

Aphrodite actually didn't care much about being kidnapped... This seemed to her to be a novel fulfillment. After all, mortals couldn't really hurt themselves. She even thought about it and saw if there was a hero to save the beauty.

...This is a traditional project.

After the distinction between men and women, there are projects.

Usually, a beautiful woman is kidnapped and injured by a bad guy, a hero who can't stand it appears on the scene, defeats the bad guy, and then the beauty and the hero live happily together. Although it is very cliche, you have to admit that this

This stuff really works!

There are many plots of heroes saving beauties in movies and TV dramas. In this case, the heroine will fall in love with the hero who heroically kills the enemy. She secretly promises to repay the hero's life-saving grace in this way, and they both fall in love.

Love River. While complaining about the cliche plot, let’s analyze why men and women are more likely to fall in love when the hero saves the beauty.

Let’s first introduce a classic psychological experiment:

Invite a beautiful woman to conduct questionnaires on boys in different scenes, and then ask the boys to make up a short story based on a picture. The beautiful woman will leave her contact information for all participating boys. The boys are divided into three groups: the first group is in the park.

, the second group was on a stone bridge, and the last group was on a dangerous suspension bridge. The results showed that compared with the other two groups, the boys who participated in the survey on the dangerous suspension bridge called more beautiful women and responded.

The story is also more romantic.

Why is this? It's down to a neurostimulant called phenylethylamine. When we're in a dangerous situation, it causes our heart to race, our breathing to quicken, nervous sweating, and our cheeks to turn red. In benzene

Under the influence of ethylamine, we will have more feelings towards the opposite sex, which is what is now called "calling".

In fact, this is also a wrong attribution, because the nervousness and excitement in dangerous situations is an instinct. We don’t know whether the physical excitement is because of the dangerous environment or because the person in front of us makes our heart beat faster. In this blur

In some cases, some people make wrong attributions and attribute their physiological manifestations to feelings of love. Fluctuating emotions are instinctive and not driven by human will. In

In dangerous environments, tension, excitement, uncertainty and a sense of crisis can attract men and women and serve as catalysts for feelings. People often attribute love to intrinsic characteristics such as personality or attitude, while ignoring the importance of their environment.

Sex. The plots of heroes saving beauties and other exciting scenes in movies and TV dramas will make people mistakenly think that they are experiencing the thrill of love. In fact, this is the result of making full use of the suspension bridge effect.

For example, in the process of pursuing a woman, many men will take her to watch horror movies. In this case, the woman always feels excited, nervous, and her heart beats faster. Therefore, out of instinct, she will find out the emotional explanation: yes

The plot of the movie was so terrible, but the people around me moved my heart.

Likewise, women can make good use of misattribution.

When a man and a woman meet or communicate for the first time, the woman always maintains a sense of mystery, smiles more and talks less. This behavior will inevitably make men feel nervous. Under the influence of the suspension bridge effect, men will naturally

Indulge in the charm of a woman and fall in love with this woman. In addition, when a woman shows admiration, appreciation and affirmation to a man, it will also lead to the man's misattribution. This is similar to

It is equivalent to constantly giving positive affirmations to men and conveying the message "I am easy to control". After a man receives this message, there will be two consequences: he does not like this woman, but he will leave a good impression on this woman

, thinking that this woman understands him and treats her as a confidant; or because the woman expresses information that is easy to control, he pursues this woman and increases the probability of success in his pursuit.

Aphrodite liked this kind of stories very much, whether it was the beauties or heroes in the stories, they were all her favorites.

She cannot lack love. Aphrodite is a representative of restlessness. She has no window of time. She wishes she could be in love every moment... But the strange thing is that she will always love only one person...

She's very dedicated. She cheats just because she doesn't fall in love with someone. Well, in a sense, she's very dedicated.

A relationship and one person.

Find someone else in your next relationship.

So she is still there waiting for the hero to arrive... Unfortunately, modern narrative methods are much more exciting than those old-fashioned stories in ancient times!

There are always twists and turns that catch people off guard.

She didn't wait for a hero to save the beauty, but she saw a bunch of people who were worse than animals!

She was sold directly to Albanians by that group of human traffickers. Of course, the group of human traffickers didn't get any benefits either, and they directly preyed on the Albanians.

This is what emerging gangs are like, they don't care about rules but only about interests.

From the early Irish gangs, to the modern Mafia, to the Bear Mafia, and finally to the Albanian gangsters.

These gangs had less and less of the associational spirit in the early days, and instead the outlaw atmosphere became more and more serious.

The early gangs were actually more like some kind of mutual aid groups, and they were very strict with each other. After all, they were a group of people who gathered to prevent themselves from being bullied.

This was the case with the early Irish gangs. The 1960s was one of the most turbulent periods in American history. At that time, a black young man once said: "Violence is as special to the United States as cherry jam pie." Ireland

The entry of Italians and Italians into the North American continent can be traced back to the early colonization period of Europeans, but large-scale

Immigration to the United States all occurred in the 19th century. In the first half of the 19th century, due to Ireland's unwillingness to endure colonial exploitation by the British, and the outbreak of two major famines that swept Ireland, a large number of Irish poor people came to North America to survive. In the second half of the 19th century

, Italy's economy is in recession, but taxes continue to skyrocket, and bankrupt poor people are also flocking to the United States.

Unlike British and German immigrants who brought large sums of money to develop North America, Irish and Italian immigrants just changed places and continued to be poor. Many people could not even afford to rent decent houses and could only live in slums.

, engaged in the hardest and most tiring work.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Poverty often breeds nationalism, and in addition, they are all Catholics. In North America, which is dominated by Christianity, both the Irish and Italians were regarded as unable

Assimilated "barbarians". In fighting against the exploitation of foremen and religious persecution, the Irish spontaneously formed various violent groups and thus became the originators of American gangs. Decades later, Italian immigrants encountered the same situation when they arrived.

The problem is, they just went further down the dark road, so much so that everyone forgot about the Irish gangs.

Industrialization promoted the great development of the American economy, but the Irish gangs and the Italian mafia took different paths. The Italians soon got tired of low-level violent crimes, and after pioneering the international drug trafficking trade in the United States, they gradually turned to economic crimes.

Ireland has been colonized by the British for hundreds of years, and the continuous struggle with the British has honed the Irish people's keen political sense. While the scale of American cities has expanded rapidly, the management system has not kept up with the speed of economic development, especially the lack of support for new immigrants.

Effective management. At this time, a special group of people called "city bosses" emerged. The "city bosses" in the United States began in the 1860s and flourished after World War I.

Before. According to data, most of the bosses are of Irish descent and are descendants of immigrants. Many of them lived on the streets when they were young because of poverty. They are the people who know American life best. When they become the rulers of the underground social order

At that time, it was obviously more powerful than the government in how to meet the needs of lower-class citizens and new immigrants, and the votes in the hands of these people provided the possibility for them to get involved in politics. After several generations

Thanks to their efforts, the Irish have finally become the largest ethnic group in American politics. As society continues to stabilize, traditional gangs such as the Mafia have begun to seek transformation. They deliberately avoid large-scale violent crimes and instead focus on making money and laundering it. Only

There are Irish gangsters who still maintain a domineering style of doing things, so much so that the Italian mafia particularly looks down on the Irish who only speak with their fists. Love

Irish gangs are keen on the pleasure of bloodshed on the streets, which has a great impact on the tragic fate of their nation. Ireland has been colonized by the British for hundreds of years, and violence is their only means of resisting the British. Over time, this violent orientation gradually transformed into a cultural habit

and behavioral patterns, coupled with the fact that the top talents in the ethnic group are busy running for president and congressmen, causing them to hand over the position of the underworld brother to the Italians.

The Italian Mafia needs no further introduction, as it has been covered in various movies and TV series.

Of course, don’t think that the gangsters mentioned in those movies and TV dramas are real. After all, these people are not good people. Who is a good person who is a gangster? Movies and TV dramas are all beautified. As for why they are beautified... Of course, because those movies are all

The mafia invested in it!

But one thing is true, and that is that the Mafia has its own rules.

The Italian Mafia has strict disciplines, which are the so-called "Seven Commandments": 1. Keep secrets; 2. The organization is higher than the individual; 3. Do not disobey orders from superiors; 4. Do not rebel and surrender; 5. Keep secrets from your family; 6. Do not act without permission

Engage in kidnapping activities; 7. Fighting between brothers is strictly prohibited. Once a person joins the mafia, he no longer belongs to himself, but must obey the organization. Unless approved by the organization, no one is allowed to quit the mafia midway. Zeng

There was a mafia head who wanted to quit, but the mafia's discipline did not allow him to do so. He had to continue until he was killed. As for dealing with the rebels within the mafia, the mafia was even more ruthless. The mafia

After the party kills a rebel, it usually puts a small wooden stopper in his mouth to warn those informers. Therefore, after the mafia members are arrested, they would rather die than confess. This makes the government's crackdown on "gangsters"

"Action increases the difficulty.

The Mafia actually pays great attention to order. Of course, don’t talk nonsense about the Mafia not selling drugs. This is false. It’s just that when the Mafia was rampant, drugs were not very popular, like opium.

The profits are not as high as selling fake wine, so why do they want to sell drugs?

This left the illusion that the Mafia did not sell drugs, but in fact, at their peak, they did not need to rely on drug trafficking to make money. After that, drugs became rampant, but the Mafia also weakened in the United States!

The war between the Mafia and the government triggered by Kennedy did not end with Kennedy's death. By 1985, nine core members of the five major New York families were arrested together. Throughout the 1980s, there were a thousand Mafiosi

Members were caught. Just like that, the Mafia slowly weakened. The dark period when it could fight the government could never return. The golden age of American gangs was also declared over. The Mafia disappeared from the center of the American stage.

leave

Later, American gangsters began to get involved in traditional illegal industries again. The new industry they chose was drugs that could make a lot of money. At this time, the gangsters were very aware of the idea of ​​making a big tree to attract trouble, and they were thinking about it.

In order to make money, their methods of action are more direct and brutal. The gangs in the United States have returned to their original state. They are far away from the mainstream society and keep wandering on the edge of society.

Wander away.

At this point, the gangs in the United States have completely turned into a group of social scum. Even if the old gunmen in the United States are becoming more and more fierce, they are only as fierce as they are. They can no longer influence the American political arena.

, even when you meet the police, you have to walk around them. Because they are bad people, and they are simply bad people who should be in jail.

As for the Albanian gangsters... In fact, saying that they are gangsters is a bit derogatory to them. These guys tend to be more gangsters!

Robbery is what they should do!

They do whatever they want to make money, and they don't follow any rules at all, and they don't have any so-called restrictions. After all, they are a roaming gang. They just leave after they do something, and they have no intention of taking root. They don't need to reach any tacit understanding with the various local forces.

Take this business for example. After seeing Aphrodite, the Albanian gangsters were very satisfied, but they were not satisfied with the price.

What should I do if I want people but I don’t want money?

Of course, it’s a black man eating a black man!

The Albanian gangsters didn't think about it for a second before they opened fire.

Anyway, for them, this is a normal thing...after all, they have no so-called rules.

Then Aphrodite saw the sins of modern people. She saw with her own eyes that a girl was cut into pieces by Albanian gangsters because of her illness. Her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were taken apart and sold!

This is no longer a beast's problem.

Worse than a beast!

So Aphrodite had a rare burst of justice, and she wanted to punish these blasphemers!

She used her charm to capture these gang members very easily... Of course, she felt that this was not enough! She felt that since she wanted to do it, she might as well do it bigger and more ruthlessly.

She has seen many slave owners, but these people in front of her are much more ruthless than slave owners!

They treat humans as livestock! No, worse than livestock!

So she's going to get all these bastards together, and then...
