Chapter 18: Another World (Please recommend a ticket)
Chapter 18 A Different World (recommendation ticket requested)
After entering the time loop, Roland never rested.
For the project "Home Alone", he was doing the same thing day after day.
Was he trying to get out of the time loop earlier?
Yes and no.
At first, when Roland learned that he had entered the time loop, he was actually very happy.
Because he felt that he could go through the time loop and become a Superman like Billy Batson.
In the time loop, he can learn various skills. He doesn't have to think about whether his skill points are enough. Anyway, he has plenty of time, so he can fill up his skill tree slowly.
but-
When he conducted a wave of show analysis and found that he had to win the "Home Alone" project in order to leave the time loop, his eyes never left the movie.
There is no other reason, who made this movie shine too brightly?
"Home Alone" is like the magic potion that Robert Reynolds drank.
Roland felt that if he got it, he would be able to gain the power of millions of stars.
After "Home Alone", what kind of bicycle do you need?
This is Tianhu's start!
In the past one hundred days, Roland was as excited as Husky Big G, and he never calmed down.
And when everything was pushed back to the original point, David's words made him wake up.
Life is not a 100-meter sprint. Even if he is Barry Allen, he cannot run to the finish line at full speed.
The most powerful part of the time loop is not that it can help him get the project of "Home Alone", but that it makes him more plump. If he sticks to the movie project, even if he can get a success, it is still picked up. Sesame, lost the watermelon.
David is right, the project "Home Alone" cannot escape.
He didn't have to be so impatient at all.
Since there is another stalemate over John Hughes, forget it.
He can do what he wants to do first, and don't regret it after leaving the time loop.
It took 22 years for Master Zhi to win his first league championship, so why did he want to escape in such a hurry?
Living the same day repeatedly, very boring?
Then you just let it become, not boring!
Maybe it was the progress of the project that returned to the original point that calmed Roland down, or maybe it was David's proposal that made Roland see the real usefulness of the time loop again. When the 122nd New Year's Day came, Roland asked Only then did he understand that this world is not without beauty, but that he has always had preconceived ideas and has never understood it.
"Don't want to audition?"
"no problem!"
"So we're going to Pasadena later?"
"Today is the 100th Rose Parade, shall we go and play?"
"A distance of ten miles can be reached in half an hour. I'm not afraid that I won't be able to make it."
The Rose Parade originated in 1890.
Since the floats took to the streets on January 1, 1890, it has become an annual New Year's celebration in Pasadena. The New Year’s Eve fireworks in Las Vegas are also known as the three major New Year’s celebrations in America. It is one of the largest New Year’s events in America and attracts the most audiences.
The number of tourists who come here every year alone has reached hundreds of thousands.
When the three of them came to Pasadena, the first thing they saw was the sky full of colors.
In order to welcome the arrival of the New Year, the green vegetation on both sides of the road is covered with flowers of various colors. Not only that, even the lush landscape trees are wearing funny flower hats; the colorful scenes are like God overturned his paint tray, and Roland was dazzled by the color-changing arrangement of a hammer here and a stick here.
"James, Roland, you two come up, there are too many people, I will hold you to watch."
Facing David's outstretched hands, neither of them hesitated.
Climb up with the trend, sit sideways with your shoulders, climb high and look far away, and you can have a panoramic view of everything.
The five-and-a-half-mile sightseeing route is crowded with people, with aggressive motorcycle police cars clearing the way, followed by distinctive floats, whether it is a classic car with a brown roof on a black background or a propeller plane. Scooters, or vehicles shaped like animals, these slow-moving vehicles, with hilarious shapes, are all composed of flowers.
Just as Roland was looking at all this curiously, James suddenly gave him an elbow and shouted: "Roland! Look! Look! Look! What is that animal with the big mouth!"
The sudden sound caught Roland's attention, and when he looked in the direction of James' finger, he was stunned by a grinning creature: the horns were like a deer, the head was like a cow, the eyes were like a shrimp, and the mouth was like a donkey. , belly like a snake, scales like a fish, feet like a phoenix, whiskers like a human, ears like an elephant', isn't it a dragon!
"That's—" Roland opened his mouth, the familiar words stuck in his throat, and he didn't know how to explain it.
While he was in a daze, David, who had already seen the dragon float, raised his voice, "Chinese dragon."
"Mysterious Creatures of the East."
"This should be created by the local Chinese community."
America is originally a country of immigrants, and California is a state of immigrants. People of different races live here and have different beliefs. As long as you are willing to pay 50,000 to 200,000 dollars, under normal circumstances, the parade association in charge of managing , will not interfere with your creative thinking. After the report is passed, you can build it however you want.
When the mighty and domineering dragon carriage passed in front of Roland, it followed the Asians on both sides, which made him take a few extra glances.
The familiar black and red Tang suit made him deeply moved.
He never thought that the first memory after time travel would appear in this way.
And when his eyes followed the long dragon to the distance, the neatly paced band and the mighty horse team slowly passed in front of him, the sound of music, cheers and applause, one after another.
Watching the bustling crowd and people of different skin colors, Roland suddenly had the illusion that he was queuing up to buy "Say Good Not to Cry".
If he had known that the score would drop so quickly, he would have waited and watched.
Roland thought that the New Year's Day of the American people was very boring, but he didn't realize it. The people's life was much more interesting than he thought.
If he had known about this activity, he would have spent 120 days on the "Home Alone" project? 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
impossible!
"Besides floats, there should be other projects here, right?"
Roland leaned over and asked David curiously.
After seeing the scene in front of him, he suddenly realized that there were too many things he wanted to try.
And there are countless things that have not been done...
On New Year's Day, all the Americans are resting. Apart from being angry with the crew of "Home Alone", he can't find anything else to do?
This kind of thinking is simply stupid!
"Of course!"
Before David could speak, James looked at Roland curiously. The puzzled look in his eyes was exactly the same as Geng Hao's feeling when he found out that Mr. Xu was an alien. "Roland, don't we come here every year? You Why don't you seem to remember anything?"
"In addition to the float parade, there will also be band performances, ostrich races, camel races and elephant races. Moreover, I heard that there will be a football match this year to commemorate the 100th parade?"
It seems that he is very interested in the sport of football, but it is more like he has the essence of it. When he mentioned the football game, Roland could clearly feel that his 'strong' body could no longer restrain the small universe in his heart. up!
Roland even felt that if he released the song "Brave Heart" at this time, James would evolve in situ!
Sure enough, just as Roland was thinking wildly, James had already changed the subject.
"Roland, why don't we go play football..."
"There's nothing to do anyway."
