Chapter 1491
After coming to the cool San Francisco, snowy and her mother ate, drank, and had fun all day. They no longer had to stay in an air-conditioned room like in Binhai city. Her father, Jiang tianda, was always busy with business meetings and basically didn't participate in the mother and daughter's activities.
For convenience and safety, the mother and daughter also checked into the hotel in the North Bay of San Francisco, where Jiang tianda and the company executives were staying. The scenery here was good. From the window, one could see the Golden Gate Bridge, and a few steps away from the fisherman's pier, where delicious food was gathered. It could be said to be a very convenient tourist accommodation.
It was also because they could see the Golden Gate Bridge that they noticed that the mist had covered the northern end of the bridge and was spreading to the South. Seeing this, his mother was worried that it would be cold today, so she planned to wear a leather coat to keep out the cold. However, when she heard Zhang Zian's voice message, she was a little shaken.
Tonight, the couple would be invited to attend a social dinner together, and for the social dinner ... Everyone knew that the ladies had to wear evening dresses. If it was cold, they would put on a coat over the evening dress and take it off before entering, otherwise, they would easily catch a cold when the cold wind blew.
At a dinner party with celebrities, there might be firm environmental and animal rights activists. There would be, there would be. It would be strange if there weren't any. Otherwise, the San Francisco house of Representatives wouldn't have passed the ban.
Although it would not affect the business negotiations if the environmental and animal protection activists saw her in a leather suit, they would definitely not have a good impression of her and might not be willing to make friends with her. If there were more environmental and animal protection activists present, they might even coldly isolate her. If that really happened, it would be embarrassing. This was no joke.
The purpose of the social dinner was to make friends in the political, business, and academic world. It might be useful in the future. If he was isolated just because he was wearing a leather suit, it was not worth it. If it were not for Zhang Zian's reminder, he might even be isolated for no reason.
Not only leather coats, but real leather handbags and other animal products were also best not brought. This was not to say that they were afraid, tolerant, hypocritical, or fawning, but respect and courtesy. It was just like if you went to someone's house as a guest, you should at least respect the etiquette and tradition of the other family. If you knew that the other party might hate something, and you still insisted on bringing it, wouldn't that be equivalent to going to quarrel?
On the surface, Jiang tianda looked calm, but he was actually very upset. No one had reminded him of such an important detail, and he even had to let that ... Detestable pretentious d * ck remind him. However, this matter couldn't be ignored, because the details determined success or failure, which made him even more depressed.
Of course, it was possible that the higher-ups under him did not know about this. After all, this was a new ban, and the company's business had nothing to do with fur products, so no one paid attention to this.
Snowy's mother, Shi Rong, was worried about what coat she should put on over the evening dress. She only had this leather coat on hand, so she might have to buy one on the spot.
However, when he heard that snowy planned to go to the National Park in the North by herself, Jiang tianda could no longer pretend to be deaf.
"What's so dangerous about the National Park? Many people went to play! Quite a few of them went too! If other people can go, why can't I?" Snowy thought her father was just scaring her, so she retorted.
"There's no danger? You can read the newspaper. " Jiang tianda pulled out a newspaper and threw it at her.
Snowy picked up the newspaper and looked at it. Except for Arabic numbers, it was all in English. It gave her a headache, so she threw it aside and said,""Just say it, I'm too lazy to look."
Jiang tianda snorted and pointed at a picture in the newspaper.""A few days ago, a 19-year-old girl who just started University went hiking in the national park and went missing. The local county Police sent many people into the forest to look for her, but they haven't found her yet."
He was not trying to scare snowy. The National Parks in the United States were vast, and most of them were natural forests or canyons. Only a few beautiful routes were opened for tourists to walk or drive, but young people who were adventurous or just looking for fun would sometimes go deeper into the forest to camp alone or in groups.
China's scenic spots, tourists often got lost in the mountains. Forest parks like those in the United States were larger and more prone to accidents.
Every year, an unknown number of people went missing in the major forest parks in the United States. Some were found in the end, while others disappeared forever. Of course, the number of people who disappeared in the forest Park was too small compared to the average of 2000 people who disappeared every day in the United States. It would not attract much attention. If it was a child who went missing, it might attract attention, but for an adult ... People might say,"Who asked you to play in the forest?
Although snowy only planned to go to a small forest Park next to San Francisco to play, her parents still couldn't feel at ease letting a young girl like her, who was unfamiliar with the place and not very proficient in language, go there alone. What if she was harassed by a homeless man?
This was not China. In China, enthusiastic netizens would help her call the police. When she encountered danger in the forest Park, she did not even know how to report her location to the United States Police.
Xiaoxue didn't think so. She had brought a pepper spray with her and had good physical strength. Wouldn't she run away if she met a bad person?
No matter how much she persuaded her parents, they refused to let her go alone. Her mother advised her to go shopping with her, and her father said he would take her to Silicon Valley to broaden her horizons. She would rather stay in the hotel than go out, and she would rather kill her than go out.
Snowy had no choice. She thought for a moment, pointed to the phone, and said,""If you're so worried, why don't I ask my friends to go with me? Of course, we'll have to see if he has the time. "
"A man? I'm even more worried about that. " Jiang tianda pulled a long face.
"Haha, it's okay. You guys didn't watch my livestream, so you don't know. That guy is harmless. Even cats can bully him. He's also nicknamed 'coward'. If I run into danger, he might not be able to outrun me." Snowy explained with confidence.
...Even Richard is a man.
"I think it's okay," his mother said."If it's a girl, you should say that it's not safe for two girls to go together."
Jiang tianda was rendered speechless.
Snowy was afraid that her parents would go back on their word, so she quickly sent a message to Zhang Zian and asked,"I'm planning to do a live broadcast at the red shirt National Park in the North today. Um ... Do you have any plans for today? If not, would you be interested in a friendly visit? By the way, I'll treat you to food and drinks on the way.
Zhang Zian replied almost instantly,"OK!"
