Rebirth in America

Yes, Alex wants to go home. He kind of hated this feeling of wandering.

Whatever he does he does based on interest. Once he loses interest, he will feel bored and uninterested, and usually he won't be able to persevere. It was the same this time. He was considering whether to just go back home.

Now he feels that it is warmer at home, perhaps because he was a homebody in his previous life.

However, he had signed a contract with someone for this tour. As the boss of CPT Brokerage Company, Dill had long been looking forward to the Carpenter Brothers' tour. When Alex announced that he was going to start a tour, Dill immediately found many cities to sign contracts and even gave down deposits.

Unless something unexpected happens, the deposit paid by Dill will be wasted. If Alex goes back on his word, he will definitely be scolded to death by Dill.

If Alex could just let loose and have fun, this tour would be pretty good, after all, there were so many women willing to spend the night with them. Just look at the way Little Richard and the others are having so much fun, you can tell how high they are.

Alex strummed the guitar randomly a few times and finally decided: "Forget it, let's finish this tour first."

The concerts in Houston were held five or six times in a row, and all the concerts were full. People who had seen it once wanted to go in again. People who had never seen it came from all directions, and the migrant population in Houston almost doubled.

At this time, Janis and the others realized that the money they earned could not keep up with the rising ticket prices. The scalpers were so abominable. The more people there were, the higher the ticket prices in their hands would rise. In the end, not even the scalpers had any tickets left. If you wanted tickets, you had to buy them from the fans.

However, fans came to Houston just to see the concert. How could they sell the tickets in their hands? Unless they had extra tickets, they couldn't even think about it.

"What to do! Even if we have money, we can't buy a ticket."

Janis frowned, and she began to worry that she wouldn't be able to see Alex's concert this time. The other three were also a little worried, and there was nothing they could do about this situation.

In the end, Neuer came up with a way. He said: "No matter what, we have tried our best. We can't see the concert this time. We can follow Alex and the others and wait in the next city. I I can’t believe I can’t buy tickets like this!”

Blanco asked with some confusion: "Don't you want to go back to school?"

Neuer shrugged and said: "No matter, just take another week off."

Dugarry nodded and agreed: "Then it's decided, I will accompany you to complete this journey. At least until everyone has watched the concert."

Everyone laughed and shouted: "Okay! That's how it should be!"

Temporary work must continue, and Giannis and Dugarry's street singing continues. After these few days of training, she became more and more open when singing. It can be said that she is now singing as she pleases, and sometimes she is still singing out of tune.

The strange thing is that more people listen to her singing, and many people passing by will stop and listen for a while no matter how hurried they are. Most of the time, those people will give some small money, one or two cents and so on. Their income is increasing day by day.

"Hey! Janis, you sing really well! I think you should sing. You will definitely become popular in the future!"

One day during a break, Dugarry said this to her. He encouraged this unattractive girl to embark on the path of becoming a singer. Even though he knew that a singer's appearance was important, he thought Janis could just ignore it.

Because the songs Janis sings are so good and can touch the hearts of the audience.

"Shall I sing?"

Janis has never thought about this idea. She has always felt that she looks ugly. For her, singing is just a hobby and has never been regarded as a profession.

"Yes, singing can make money to support yourself, and you like singing, so why not?"

Dugarry's words made Janis think deeply. She did like singing, and judging from the current situation, singing can indeed make money.

"But……"

Janis felt that she was too ugly and could never become a singer no matter how good she sang. But she thought about it, no matter it, it doesn't matter whether she becomes a singer or not, as long as she likes it.

Regardless of whether they can buy tickets or not, they still work hard to make money. Every night when I am free, I will gather outside the venue, hoping to buy the tickets that have missed others.

Giannis and Dugarry sang outside the venue, no matter if anyone was listening or not, and no matter if anyone gave them money, they just kept singing and singing loudly.

When the fans waiting outside were bored, they would sing along with them, and more people would gather around them and listen quietly. The scene was like a grand carnival party, bustling and lively.

The dog named A Chou would sometimes squat next to them, and sometimes run out to find something to eat. Usually Janis would feed it, but not a lot, not enough to fill it up.

Backstage at the concert, Alex and the others were busy dressing and putting on makeup and making various preparations. Some people are closing their eyes to rest, while others are drinking water and eating. When they get on stage, they have to sing and dance non-stop for two or three hours. This is a very physically demanding thing.

"Hey! Where's the dog?"

Suddenly someone shouted, and everyone followed the direction of his finger and saw an extremely ugly dog. At this time, many people had been alarmed, and the security guard was preparing to get something to drive the dog out.

There are many stray dogs in this city, and there are often rumors that someone was bitten by a dog and died of rabies within a few days. The security guard has encountered stray dogs before. He does not dare to take these dogs lightly and must handle them carefully.

Alex also saw the dog, and he felt a little strange, because the dog did not look very manic and restless, but squatted quietly in a dark corner, staring at a person who was eating.

"Wait! Don't move. That dog must be hungry. Just give it something to eat and it will be fine."

After hearing what Alex said, a security guard stopped and looked at the dog. He also discovered that the dog's focus was on the food.

It seemed like a starving dog, but even though he was hungry, he didn't grab food, so he probably wasn't crazy yet.

Everyone had some guesses in their minds, but no one dared to act rashly. The guy who was eating had an idea, tore off a chicken leg and threw it over.

"Come on, come on, this should be enough for you!"

The ugly dog ​​seemed to understand the words, wagging its tail and lowering its head to gnaw on the chicken legs. After seeing such a reaction, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. The security guard also put down the stick in his hand and was no longer so nervous on guard.

"What should we do now? Drive it out after it finishes eating?" the security guard asked Alex for instructions.

Alex looked at the dog, thought for a moment, and said, "Don't worry, let's give it more food. After it's full, it won't hurt people randomly."

The security guard was right. A well-fed dog is much safer than a hungry dog.

The concert went smoothly, and after a few hours, Alex and the others left the stage. Returning backstage, the dog was missing.

"Where's the dog?" Alex asked.

"He ran away after eating enough!" the security guard replied.

ran away? That's fine, just run away.

This was just a small incident, and Alex didn't take it to heart. Until the last day, he was really bored in his residence. He decided to go out for a walk, but even after coming to Houston for so many days, he never went out for a walk. He didn't even know what the streets here looked like.

For safety reasons, Alex decided to disguise himself before going out. Of course, he must bring bodyguards. In a place where he is unfamiliar with life, if an accident happens, it will be over without bodyguards by his side.

He put on glasses, a beard, a hat, a suit, leather shoes, etc. From the outside, he looks like a successful businessman. If you are not a familiar person, there is no way to connect his current appearance with the popular singer.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Alex waved to his bodyguards to follow him. Those bodyguards were no longer in disguise, and they looked powerful at first sight.

Houston is the largest city in Texas and the fourth largest city in the United States. It is also the largest economic center on the Gulf Coast and is very prosperous. Local people like to call it "Niuzuma City", or "H Town", "Paw City", "Mongolian City" and so on. UU read www.uukanshu.netｔ

This is also the hometown of Howard Hughes, and the Hughes family developed in Houston. Later, Hughes also built his aerospace-related company here in Houston, forcibly turning the city into an official "space city."

In the past, when Alex watched American movies or TV series, when he saw space-related themes, when the astronauts in the movies were communicating with people on the earth, they would shout: "Houston, Houston, did you receive it?"

The Houston here refers to the United States Space Center built in Houston. Almost all space-related things in the United States occur in this space center.

Of course, Houston doesn't have anything to do with space right now. The aerospace industry in the United States has not yet developed. With the cooperation of Alex and Hughes, it has only been developed in theory, and practice still requires a lot of money and time.

As for the money to develop the aerospace industry, this is simply not something that one or two private companies can afford. There must be national power involved. Americans now don’t care about what’s in space. Only after the Soviet Union launched its first artificial satellite did the Americans wake up from their sweet dreams and invest manpower and material resources into space research.

During this period, Mr. Hughes seemed not to care much about Interstellar Technology Company. Maybe he also felt that the investment was too big and the output was too small.

In fact, this is only one reason. The more important reason is that Howard Hughes is also in trouble now. He was short of capital when he bought Universal, and in order to develop and expand, he borrowed too much debt, so that he now has some problems with his capital chain.
