Gao Liang was walking aimlessly through the streets and alleys of San Francisco with a check for 100,000 US dollars. By chance, he passed the First Street, running east to west in the eastern part of the city, and came to the entrance of Shentong Automobile Co., Ltd. at No. 68. Without realizing it, he noticed a promotional display outside the entrance, featuring cars at various price points. He immediately became interested in a stylish and elegant sports car. When he checked the price, it was exactly 100,000 US dollars. Gao Liang truly wanted to own a personal sports car in the United States, because in America, cars—just like bicycles and electric scooters in China—are far less common than in China. For Gao Liang, solving transportation issues was his top priority. Among the basic needs of food, clothing, housing, and transportation, solving the transportation issue came first. He immediately went inside and said to a female sales representative, “I’d like to purchase the new Shentong Wanger model!” “Oh! Sir! Congratulations! That’s the very last one left today!” the sales representative replied. “Great!” "I've bought it!" Gaoliang said decisively. After promptly completing the standard purchase procedures, he easily picked up a brand-new Shunlong Wanger model and tested it out—excellent! Gaoliang had spent exactly $100,000 on this vehicle and now holds nothing in his pocket. Yet, he's extremely happy, enjoying the comfortable breeze as he drives through the streets and alleys of San Francisco. The car soon brought him to a place he had never visited before: the Union Square in San Francisco. Union Square is the city's transportation hub, with both the Powell-Mason and Powell-Hyde cable car lines passing through it, and nearly all bus routes serving the area or nearby streets, making transportation exceptionally convenient. The so-called "Union Square" is a small plaza of just one hectare situated between Post Street, Stockton Street, Geary Street, and Powell Street. Though modest in size, it is meticulously maintained, resembling a park with lush palm trees, cypresses, and flowering plants. It regularly hosts art exhibitions, flea markets, and other events. Surrounded by renowned boutiques, shoppers often stop by to rest and unwind, making the plaza consistently bustling and filled with a romantic, pleasant atmosphere. The plaza was gifted to the city by then-Mayor of San Francisco, Geary, in 1850, as it had served as a venue for a series of "Federal Union Conferences" during the American Civil War, and thus was named "Union Square." Although the establishment of the square has no connection with war, the statue of Victory atop the central column was erected to commemorate Admiral Dewey, who achieved a decisive victory over Spanish forces at the Battle of Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War. The historic Saint Francis Hotel, located adjacent to the square, boasts magnificent architecture and has appeared in numerous Hollywood films. It has hosted distinguished guests such as Queen Elizabeth of England, the Dalai Lama, General MacArthur, Dr. Martin Luther King, President John F. Kennedy, Shirley Temple, and Ingrid Bergman. The hotel offers rooms that are both elegant and comfortable, with warm and courteous service. Today, it is no longer merely a hotel but has become one of San Francisco's iconic landmarks. The fine jewelry sold at the renowned boutique on the street within the hotel reflects the fashion of the past. In the lobby, the cozy bar "Compass Rose" is one of San Francisco's most popular gathering spots, offering an exquisite and inviting afternoon tea, though it charges $21 per guest—still drawing long lines. Its wine list is outstanding, featuring champagne, caviar, and premium vodka, with live music performances in the evenings. For just $10, one can sip a drink and envision the lifestyle of the upper class. Here they are holding a game launch event! A large promotional poster at the front reads: "Launch Event for 'Need for Speed: Most Wanted'!" The host, full of energy, announces through the microphone: "The latest racing game from Electronic Arts in the United States is now making its grand entrance! 'Need for Speed: Most Wanted' will be released globally mid-next month and is currently in its final testing phase. We warmly invite players from around the world to try it out and share their valuable feedback. Now, please welcome our star ambassador, Miss Demi Moore!" The audience erupts into excitement, as Miss Demi Moore is well-known not only in San Francisco, but throughout California, and indeed across the entire United States. Dressed with long, golden hair, she wears a sleek, deep blue and purple body-hugging top that reveals her abdomen and navel, paired with navy blue jeans and silver-gray heels. She is graceful and elegantly poised. Dai Mengna's figure is absolutely first-class among all the beautiful women, standing out brilliantly and shining above the rest among the ten women on stage. As soon as the audience saw Dai Mengna walking in graceful S-shaped steps, they immediately erupted in cheers: "Dai Mengna! Dai Mengna! You are our goddess!" Dai Mengna merely smiled gently at the audience, then personally walked to the car, circling the premium Ferrari around the stage with a smooth, precise and confident driving motion that had everyone clapping and calling out enthusiastically: "Beautiful woman driving a stunning car! Absolutely fantastic!" "This game has real appeal! Ha! Let's all support '极品飞车无间风云' together!" one American gamer shouted on the spot. "Excellent! I just tried it out—this game is brand new and absolutely thrilling! Great! We're in!" said another Korean gamer. "This one!" "It will definitely create a sensation not just across the United States, but worldwide!" Another Japanese gamer also clapped and cheered. ... Seeing such a strong response, Peter immediately beamed with excitement and turned to Demona, saying, "Hehe! Miss Demona! This time, should you be satisfied?" "Yes! But the crucial thing is a smooth launch by the middle of next month!" Demona was very pleased with today's gamer reactions. At that moment, Peter stepped close to her and said, "Remember our promise! If the launch is successful by the middle of next month, it will also be the day we celebrate our wedding!"
