Chapter 19: A Brand New Track!

Came in a Tesla.

The driver was still the blonde beauty.

Plus, it was a free ride, didn't have to spend a dime.

Won't get such good treatment on the way back.

Got an Uber on the way back, waited for twenty minutes, and a Corolla showed up.

Getting off at Red Street, seeing the bill for tens of dollars, made him feel a bit sour.

Many things in America are very 'cheap', like electronic products, meat.

This 'cheapness' is relative to the income of the American people.

But the service in America is really expensive.

You have to tip even for meals, and over the years, the tipping rate has been increasing.

What's even more annoying is that if you tip too little, the waiter won't thank you.

You give money, but still have to see the waiter's attitude.

In China, there are exposés of scumbags and scumbag women, and overseas waiters also post on social media to expose those who tip too little or not at all.

Many Chinese have experienced being listed on apps like 'Bald Eagle' by waiters.

It's really tough.

One thing you can't do without in America is a car.

Without a car, it's hard to get around in America.

It's okay in big cities, but in smaller places, you have to wait half an hour for the bus.

As explained to Li Haiping.

Many people think that America is good wherever you look, all advantages.

The police clear the magazine at the drop of a hat—they think it's an iron fist strike, maintaining public order.

But behind it is the extremely deteriorating social stability compared to decades ago.

Top-notch medical resources, and there's free medical care as a last resort—look, how respectful of human life!

Sky-high insurance premiums, sky-high medical bills, community doctors are quick to prescribe addictive painkillers for any illness—they want a commission!

Medical capital colludes with both parties, ordinary people are being fooled into using addictive drugs in large quantities.

For specifics, you can refer to American TV dramas (Addiction Dosage).

Medical capital knows they're doing wrong, regulators know they're doing wrong, smart Americans know what's going on.

But American capital has merged to an extreme degree, and regulation has become a den of thieves, and smart people have become their dogs.

Unscrupulous exploitation, achieving mental control over the lower class through drugs, and locking down all kinds of negative news with a censorship iron net.

The beauty of America is real, but within the reality, there is a lot of darkness, covered up by the spotlight controlled by capital.

Some say that 2023 was the year of the electronic pet.

Through electronic pets, everyone saw another side of America.

But Rome wasn't built in a day!

The anthills that undermine the levee need a long period of growth!

America, even before 2023, was already running downhill!

In 2023, despite being plagued by illness, Cheng Daqi still maintained the habit of collecting information every day.

He remembered very clearly, America in 2023, from the skyrocketing non-combat casualties from the Middle East base, to the tightness of aircraft carrier repair docks, to millions of illegal immigrants.

Cheng Daqi wouldn't say anything about "The Collapse of America," after all, there are authors of "The Collapse of Country H" to learn from.

But he was sure that America was inevitably going downhill.

This road was extremely embarrassing, the withdrawal from Ata, the deadlock in the Middle East, the financial bomb, fiscal deficit.

That's why he didn't go back!

Starting over again, without the high waves of America, would be disrespectful to the blessings of heaven!

When Cheng Daqi found Sani, the girl was charging in the library.

Modern humans can do without a fixed place to live, stable food, but they can't do without the internet.

Charging, an essential need that homeless people can't get around.

The shelters in America are interesting, they provide charging services, but don't allow the use of phones while charging.

This rule is to prevent homeless people from occupying the charging ports while playing on their phones.

But it's different in the library, just find a seat, and before closing, you can play as much as you want, and there's even free WiFi.

Seeing Cheng Daqi arrive, Sani was a little curious.

"Where did you go? I messaged you and you didn't reply?"

The black girl felt that her neighbor had been acting strangely these past few days.

He would just go up to any woman he saw, and for the past two days, he had been hanging out with the female volunteer at the shelter.

He didn't seem like an Asian at all.

His attitude towards her was also strange, as if he cared more, but not really.

It was annoying.

Cheng Daqi smiled apologetically, took a chair from the corner of the library, and sat down next to Sani.

"I went to lunch with the female volunteer from the shelter, and all the way I was thinking about how to get legal status."

Taking out the power bank he had just bought, Cheng Daqi plugged in the charging cable.

Achieving a small goal, achieving relative freedom in terms of battery life.

As long as he charged in time every day, he could use his phone whenever he wanted.

No more worrying about battery life.

Seeing Cheng Daqi editing photos, Sani couldn't help but ask.

"What are you doing?"

Cheng Daqi replied without turning his head.

"Editing videos, I plan to share my experiences as a homeless person in America on TikTok, similar to posting videos on YouTube."

Share experiences as a homeless person?

What's there to share about being homeless?

"Would anyone watch videos of a homeless person's life?"

Cheng Daqi glanced at Sani with a meaningful look in his eyes.

In this entertainment-to-death era, there are people willing to watch all kinds of videos.

As long as the content is interesting enough.

Cheng Daqi's editing skills are very average, but interesting content is enough.

There are many bloggers sharing their lives in America, but he's the first to share the life of a homeless person in America.

Debuting at the top, he's the first in the race!

You don't need sophisticated editing skills, at this point in time, this field is wide open.

Cheng Daqi isn't worried about the video going cold.

Choosing the right music, continuing to edit the text.

The video text reads "Arrived in America, queued for relief today, so many people."

Simple text, easy to stir the hearts of foreign fans.

It's a done deal.
