"On behalf of Houston, I welcome you all. Houston is to America what cowboys are to the West. Since 1847, generations of cowboys, riding horses, using guns and blood in their hands, have built the current West.

!”

Adrian is dressed in traditional western cowboy clothing, wearing a high-top felt hat, tasseled leather trousers, and a denim jacket. This is the image of a cowboy that often appears in Hollywood movies.

Holding the microphone high, Adrian said extremely sensational words, claiming that he was American orthodoxy, claiming that the cowboy culture represented by Houston was America's orthodoxy, and everything else was crooked.

"The western cowboy represents justice, adventure, fearlessness, and bravery. The western cowboy can conquer the most ferocious bulls and defeat the most ferocious beasts. They will continue to live here before, now and in the future..."

If these words were put in New York, Los Angeles and Indian reservations, they would probably be sprayed with laughter. But in today's red-neck gathering, Adrian finished his words. The stadium that accommodates more than 70,000 people,

There was a huge round of applause, and countless people were shouting.

TV Station C, without waiting for Chief of Staff Matthews to communicate, had a tacit understanding and edited out this scene. Although it was claimed to be a live broadcast, there was a delay of several minutes from the filming scene to the broadcast on the TV station.

, just to prevent unexpected situations from occurring.

Adrian's words just now must not be played. Adrian was showing off the great achievements of the Western Cowboys in exchange for the support of the red necks of Houston, Texas and other states.

But the natives on the Indian reservation hate the Western cowboys with a passion. You know, the states where the Western cowboys and rednecks are now were all their territory in the past. If Adrian's words just now were broadcast,

I went to several reservations in Indiana and had to lift the table.

In the town of Chamin, a suburb of Houston, a car repair shop with the Sons of Anarchy logo is also the home of the Sons of Anarchy gang.

Compared with a few years ago, the scale of this car repair shop today is much larger than before, and the equipment is more professional. The car repair shop is completely separated from the living area behind it.

Jax, Opie, and other Sons of Anarchy personnel were all drinking wine in the lobby of the lair.

But at this moment, the hall seemed to be noisy, but it was clearly divided. Clay, the president of the Sons of Anarchy, was sitting on one side with a few "old people" from the gang, while Jax, Opie and other young people were sitting on the other side.

, the two sides seem to be in harmony, but in fact there is obviously some gap.

This estrangement began to appear after Jax accepted the identity of Blackwater's "bounty hunter".

The younger generation of Sons of Anarchy gang members, headed by Jax and Opie, have accepted to work for Blackwater and have begun to get used to their identities as bounty hunters.

day.

After becoming a bounty hunter for Blackwater, as long as they put up the Blackwater brand, police detectives in Texas and other states will no longer trouble them, and will also provide them with "support" and give them

A "license" to do certain things, and as long as the bounty mission is completed, everyone can get a lot of money!

Jax advocates giving up his previous activities and allowing the Sons of Anarchy to completely transform. Although they are still a motorcycle gang, a complete change can be regarded as fulfilling the purpose that Jax and his father originally set up the Sons of Anarchy gang.

However, the "old men" of the Sons of Anarchy gang headed by Clay are somewhat unwilling to give up their original businesses, such as border smuggling, selling weapons, transporting certain special gadgets, etc.

Although it seems that Jax and Clay have different views, in the final analysis, it is still a question of who has the final say in the Sons of Anarchy gang!

Jax's mother, Gamma, came out of the room at this time and sat next to Clay. She couldn't help complaining to Jax, "You shouldn't have let Amber leave Charmin. He should stay here at this time."

Here, when he needs you the most, I bet that the next time you see Amber, he won’t even be able to call you out..."

Gamma complained to Jax that she did not want Jax's son Amber to be sent to Houston to be taken care of by the Bruno family. She wanted Amber to stay in Chamin and she would take care of it herself.

When Jax heard what Gamma said, he just spread his hands and said nothing but expressed his attitude. Jax didn't think he was a good man who could teach Amber, but he let Gamma take care of Amber.

Jax felt that it might be worse, and he himself was the best proof.

"That seems to be Amber..."

Suddenly, Opie pointed to the TV in the hall. On it was a scene from a local Houston TV station broadcasting the Stampede. ICNC TV station had obtained the rights to broadcast the Stampede in America, but it could not stop the local Houston TV station from broadcasting the Stampede.

However, the broadcast can only be limited to Houston, broadcast rights to other states in America, and TV station C.

Tanishi

After hearing Opie's words, everyone in the hall looked up and looked at the TV, and sure enough they saw the scene where they were sitting in the VIP area of ​​the stadium with little Miria.

The characters sitting in the VIP area with Amber did not know Jax, Clay, Gamma and others, but Adrian and the others knew each other, and there were several other faces that they had seen on TV.

, apparently a local celebrity in Houston.

Looking at Amber, who was sitting behind Adrian and sitting with Dayana, and Gamma, who was still complaining just now, their expressions became a little complicated at this time, although they, the gang members, were used to mocking Adrian.

These congressmen even "look down upon" federal congressmen.

But Gamma, Clay, and the others all understand that it is Adrian’s group of congressmen who really have the final say in Houston. They are the ones who have the right to speak in this land!

Under normal circumstances, Jax, Clay, Gamma and their friends and juniors would never have the opportunity to sit in the same area with Adrian and be on the TV station together, but now Amber, and Adrian

Derian is in the same frame, and they know all this because Amber is Song Yang's godson.

The broadcast on the TV continued. After finishing his speech, Adrian looked in the direction of Song Yang amid bursts of applause, "Let us welcome the pride of Houston and the genius of the Internet industry. The biggest event at this year's Stampede."

Sponsored by Bruno Song!”

Adrian handed the microphone to Song Yang, and when he sat down, he teased Amber. Seeing this scene, Jax couldn't help but have a complicated and slightly lucky look on his face.

Clay, Gamma, Opie and other members of the Sons of Anarchy gang looked at the scenes on TV with different expressions, but no matter what they said in the past, if they had the chance, they would probably want to be like Jacques

Like this, he can send people to Song Yang!

Song Yang was not as explicit as Adrian said, and he didn't need votes, so why did he need to offend others, but he still pursued Houston.

"In the past hundred years, the Western Cowboys represented adventure and the conquest of the wilderness. Today, the West provides beef and natural gas to Americans. In the future, Houston and the West will also be America's technology center, and America will be reborn.

Focus on the West!”

After hearing Song Yang's words, Adrian was the first to applaud. He liked Song Yang's last sentence, Texas will be the center of America, and Houston will be the center of Texas!

What Adrian wants is not only for Houston and Texas to provide America with beef, natural gas and other gadgets, he also wants Hughes to appear as the next Silicon Valley and the next Wall Street, not to mention both.

If it is done, even if it is just a little bit of a clue, so that Houston will no longer be called a village by those in New York, then Adrian will probably become the most influential congressman in Texas!

Song Yang only spoke a few words before giving up the microphone. He came back this time just to show his face. On an occasion like today, it would be unreasonable not to come back, but he didn't want to steal the limelight.

After Adrian, Song Yang, Kenneth and several others gave speeches, the opening ceremony of the Stampede officially began. Gwen Stefani's rock band, as the opening performance, immediately arrived at the stadium temporarily.

On the stage set up.

When the accompaniment sounds, this year's Houston Stampede has officially begun. For those who come to Houston, these twenty days are a carnival!

After Song Yang, Greg and others attended the opening ceremony, they basically got up and prepared to leave. However, for Xiao Miliya and many people who came to the scene, the most lively time was after the opening ceremony.

In the huge stadium, various activities, including food activities, etc. will be held. Little Miria also took Amber to participate in the youth lamb riding activity, which made Dayana very nervous. If not for Dayana to pull her.

Now, little Miliya still doesn’t know what kind of trouble it will lead to!

The Houston Stampede is still going on, with various cowboy competitions and agricultural and animal husbandry exhibitions being held in full swing. On the second day of the opening ceremony, the Stampede also held a float parade, with a phalanx of more than a hundred floats and hundreds of people on horseback.

The cowboys walked through the city center and circled the streets of Houston, completely igniting the noise in the city!

When the whole city was in turmoil, a delegation composed of the board of directors and senior executives sent by Comerica Bank from its headquarters in Dallas also came to Houston. In the Houston branch of Comerica Bank, it officially started working with the Paypal team.

negotiation.

This time, Aaron Swartz, Marcus, Gleick and others represented the Paypal team and began to negotiate with the Comerica Bank delegation. However, Song Yang did not participate in the negotiations, but was invited to Houston.

In another villa.

Song Yanghe has already discussed the conditions with Comerica Bank with Kerimaia. This time, Paypal and Comerica Bank are negotiating openly. If the talks fail this time, it will be Song Yang who is

At the scene, I'm afraid it won't help.
Chapter completed!
