Rebirth 1979: Hunting wild boars and saving educated youth
Chapter 245 Can’t Send It Out
A little later, Iman arrived, still riding her cool Harvey Davidson.
She was wearing a black leather jacket and high-heeled leather boots, looking very cool.
Ning Yao was very happy to see Iman. She liked Iman very much and went over to her, pulling her close and calling her a "cool girl!"
Yiman exaggeratedly opened her arms, hugged Ning Yao, and said loudly: "Oh my God, what did I see? A fairy from the East!"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Ning Yao has now transferred to TFT."
The news caused Larry and Robert to exclaim in surprise.
Larry joked, "Chen, you better be careful. Your wife is on her way to becoming a Hollywood star. If you don't work hard, you'll be dumped."
Robert also joined in the fun: "That's right, Chen, why don't you join our basketball team, practice hard, and participate in the draft in two years. Basketball stars and movie stars, that's the perfect match. Otherwise, you really won't be able to keep Yining's charm."
Ning Yao was furious after hearing what they said: "I'm not going to be an actor, I'm going to be an assistant director!"
Iman glared at Larry and Robert and said, "Roast duck can't shut you two up! People like you should be sent to Africa and thrown among a group of lions to be docile!"
Chen Feng laughed and said, "You two have offended my Yao Yao. I wanted to give you a good gift, but now it seems I have to keep it for myself."
As he spoke, Chen Feng mysteriously took out the Olympic Torch Relay Card from his pocket.
Larry and Robert's eyes lit up instantly. "Wow, this is really great stuff. The Olympic torch relay, UCLA's Prometheus, this image suits me perfectly."
Larry excitedly took the card, examining it repeatedly in his hands. His face was filled with admiration, but soon his expression dimmed. He returned the card to Chen Feng and said, "It's a pity I can't participate. I just swore to God that I wouldn't participate in any public activities like this before entering the NBA. Otherwise, I'll never win a championship. I dare not break my oath."
Chen Feng handed the card to Robert reluctantly. After Robert got the card, he didn't want to blink and looked at it over and over again. He looked like he couldn't let it go.
Finally, he took a deep breath, suppressed his heartache, and returned the card to Chen Feng. Chen Feng asked in surprise, "Did you also swear a poisonous oath?"
Robert said with a firm face, "Yes, Chen. My talent isn't as great as others, and even if I make it to the NBA, I'll have to start as a hard-working player. So I swear from now on to discard all distractions, adjust my mindset, and not become complacent just because I was a star player in college. For the sake of my career, I can't accept this gift, Chen. I hope you understand."
Chen Feng was speechless. He never expected Larry and Robert to reject him, but he soon began to look at them with admiration.
You know, in this world full of temptations and desires, it is extremely difficult for a person to stay sober and have a positive mentality at all times, especially for people like Larry and Robert who have enjoyed glory and splendor in college basketball.
They are able to resist the temptation in front of them and stick to the vows they made for their future careers. Such determination and self-discipline are truly admirable.
At this time, Iman took the card, her face full of shock, and said, "Oh, this is a hot commodity! I know that the Torch Relay cards in Universal Studios and Hollywood are really hot right now!"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Then Yiman, take this card. You can run the race when the time comes! Yiman, you were a big help by lending me your motorcycle earlier. I'm giving you this Olympic Torch Relay card as a thank you!"
Yiman quickly waved her hands and said, "Chen, thank you for your generosity, but I can't accept it."
Ning Yao asked curiously, "Why? I think you, Yiman, will look really cool running with the Olympic flame!"
A hint of regret flashed through Yiman's eyes as she slowly said, "Because I'm not a UCLA student, only students from your school are eligible to run this section. If it were any other section, I would definitely accept it without hesitation, but not here!"
When Yiman said this, her tone was full of helplessness and regret.
Chen Feng had no choice but to shrug helplessly. He didn't expect that he treated them to a meal of roast duck but didn't give the card away.
But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that what Iman said made sense.
This section is truly unique and would be best run by UCLA students.
It is completely understandable that Yiman feels guilty and doesn't dare to accept it.
Chen Feng thought of Raj, who was in the same dormitory with him, and thought to himself: If it doesn’t work out, I’ll just give it to Raj. This guy has helped me a lot.
He wrote the Olympics app and is now the primary technical support. He's also sort of a programming tutor for me. My programming has improved dramatically in the short time I've been at UCLA, and much of that is thanks to Raj. Giving him a card and letting him shine a little would be great!
When he returned to the dormitory at night, Chen Feng couldn't wait to take out the torch relay card and hand it to Raj.
The moment Raj saw the card, his eyes widened with shock and surprise, his mouth wide open enough to fit an egg. "This... is this the Olympic Torch Relay card?"
His voice trembled with excitement, and he took the card carefully with both hands, as if holding a rare treasure.
However, his face fell immediately afterwards, and he grabbed his hair in frustration, "I can't go!"
This time it was Chen Feng's turn to be surprised. He asked hurriedly, "Why?"
Raj said helplessly: "Because that day is my parents' wedding, I have to go to Hawaii to attend the wedding!"
Chen Feng was stunned. "Your mother got married again?"
Raj hurriedly explained: "No, this is my mother's first marriage."
Chen Feng was puzzled, "Huh?"
Raj said seriously, "Yes, my parents have never been married since I was born. After so many years, they finally decided to get married. How could I not participate?"
In the United States, it is not uncommon to have children out of wedlock. Many people may choose to have children before getting married, or simply not get married for various reasons.
Moreover, for many Americans, marriage is often regarded as an extremely important thing, even more important than having children, which is closely related to religious beliefs.
Christianity believes that marriage is a sacred contract that needs to be completed at the appropriate time and in a solemn manner, so cohabitation before marriage is very common.
In addition, the law also provides legal protection for children born out of wedlock, and the parents of unmarried children generally enjoy the same rights and obligations as married couples.
At the same time, the government also provides some policy support, such as financial assistance and medical insurance, to reduce the financial burden of families with children out of wedlock.
However, this is almost unimaginable to the Chinese people.
After listening to this, Chen Feng shook his head speechlessly, and then sincerely expressed his blessings to Raj.
He was really depressed that he couldn't even give away such a precious card!
You should know that an Olympic torch relay card has been sold at a staggering price!
