Raising Dragons in Hollywood

Chapter 2: People don't fool young people

Views:

As the saying goes, people are not fools and juveniles.

This can only be applied to Sammy Griffin because he actually believes that there are dragons in the world.

"Don't just throw your child to your grandparents!"

When Sammy was in elementary school, Sammy's mother, Mrs. Griffin, was very desperate: "I'm so stupid, really! I knew that Sammy's grandfather liked to tell his children the story of a warrior slaying a dragon over and over again. He also told Sammy to listen to his grandfather. Now, this kid is clamoring every day to buy a big sword to slay the dragon to save the princess…”

Grandparents don't take the blame: "We have told stories to Duke and Dunbar, but they don't believe it!"

All in all, whether it's the elders' acquired training, or Sammy is born a fool.

He has always believed that 'the dragon is real' and he is the 'destined dragon slayer'.

Even, in order to find dragons and slay dragons.

At the age of eleven, Sammy was still carrying a bag and planning to run away from home. Before going out, he said with awe: "I must complete my mission and stop the evil dragon from harming the world."

Sammy's mother was stunned with her frying pan, wondering what was going on in her little son's madness.

Dad George Griffin was relatively calm. He seriously expressed his understanding of Sammy's behavior, and pointed out that Sammy's luggage was a little rough, and then he did his best to prepare more for the young dragon slayer. Luggage: "Bring more pumpkin pie, so as not to be hungry on the road, take some juice and milk, do you want chocolate and bread?"

Then, his two older brothers also came to join in the fun.

Big brother Duke said: "Bring the toys too. There are no stuffed bears and stuffed frogs. You should cry again at night."

The second brother Dunbar also said: "Water cups, building blocks, small blankets, coats, and an encyclopedia of dinosaurs."

In the end, the Dragon Slayer Warrior reluctantly gave up the operation because he had too much luggage to carry.

Alas, it is not easy to become a real dragon slayer.

A few years later.

When Sammy was sixteen years old, he was also at the age of first love, and he fell in love with a beautiful senior in the same school.

Senior Sister is only two years older than him, tall and good-looking. According to common sense, he doesn't look down on a boy like Sammy.

But the Griffin family is a big family. Although it is not a famous family, it is a typical example of trying to survive. Therefore, in Sammy's generation, there are only two brothers, Duke and Dunbar, but they are messed up cousins. , that's a full eight.

What is the concept of having eight brothers

Every time the group is dispatched, the scene is huge, and a group of people is pulled out, it is very imposing, like a small gang.

Senior Sister was bewitched by this false appearance, and when she was pursued by Sammy, she agreed as soon as she lost her mind.

She then invites Sammy to her house, and hints at 'my parents are not at home'.

Sammy happily agreed.

Parents are not at home, alone!

It would be bullshit to say that Sammy had no bad idea in mind.

But people are not beasts, even if you know what will happen next, you can't come up and do it directly, but you have to do it step by step, so senior sister suggested watching a movie.

The movie is a monster thriller.

Hey, do you understand what senpai means

To this day, Sammy still clearly remembers that day, and the title of the movie "Dragon of Destruction".

A shoddy follow-up movie in the early years, probably the content is that humans kill, wake up the sleeping dragon, and then the dragon slaughtered humans and destroyed the city. In the end, the protagonist warrior stepped forward to kill the dragon.

The plot of this movie can basically be regarded as nothing, and the acting skills of the actors are infinitely close to zero.

There is only one advantage - the dragon is made very realistic.

So, when the dragon's roar sounded, Sammy was completely unable to extricate himself.

He forgot everything, as well as the beautiful senior beside him, staring at the evil dragon on the screen fascinatedly, watching it trample high-rise buildings into ruins, watching it spread its wings and fan hundreds of people Get a somersault and watch it spew flames, shrouding the bustling New York in a roaring fire... Cool!

Two hours later, the senior who was wearing a sexy suspender skirt put on a coat, walked over with a blank face, and patted him on the shoulder: "Hello."

Still immersed in the fantasy of dragons, Sammy raised his head in a daze: "Ah, what's wrong?"

The senior said, "My parents are going home from get off work soon, you should go."

Sammy: "Oh, good."

The next day, he ran over like a puppy to find his senior sister Sahuan.

Senior Sister crossed her arms: "What are you doing?"

Sammy was excited: "Are your parents at home today? If not, continue to watch movies together!"

Senior Sister: "...Look at P, get out of here!"

Then,

No then.

Dragon slayer warriors are good to have dragons!

What girlfriend do you want

The dragon movie did have a huge impact on Sammy, though.

He felt that it was too difficult to find the real dragon when the dragon had disappeared for nearly a hundred years. Even if you want to look for it, I am afraid you have to go to some wild and inaccessible place, and if you want to go to such a place, you have to face the tears of the mother, the disappointed eyes of the father, and the constant nagging of the brothers...

To this end, the sensible Sammy had to make sacrifices.

Instead of going out to find dragons and slaughtering dragons, focus on learning to make videos, or movies, etc., in order to support the dream in your heart - if you can't find a real dragon, just create a fake dragon to play!

At the time, Disney was working on a training program for Dream Boys and Girls.

Sammy also had shit luck getting picked. From then on, the teacher taught a hundred ways to draw Snow White's dress, and he carefully drew the dragon's scales sometimes in the shape of a star, sometimes in the shape of a shield...

In conclusion, everyone believed in fairy tales when they were young.

But in the eyes of the Griffin family, Sammy's 'childhood' is too long! He is twenty years old, and he still lives in a fairy tale, believing in dragons, believing in friends, believing that justice triumphs over evil, believing that there are many good people and few bad people.

It is precisely because of this character that when he decided to meet with strangers this time, no one was relieved.

A week later, when Sammy drove to the airport to pick up people at the agreed time, the second brother Dunbar ran over, opened the car door, and sat in the co-pilot: "I'll go with you."

Sammy didn't think it was necessary, but he didn't object.

But when we got to the airport, the second brother Dunbar became more speechless when he asked the strange netizen's flight information.

"Didn't I say it? It's not important anyway." Sammy replied casually.

But under his brother's persistent questioning, he still took out his mobile phone and looked down at the chat records: "Well, a small country that I haven't heard of is called Zuogen Country."

"what? What?"

Dunbar poked out his ears, very suspicious that he was asleep in the previous geography class: "Claw Root Country? Is there such a country on earth?"

- Is there such a country on earth

At the same time, the US entry and exit staff also held Mickey's passport and asked this sentence in confusion.

"Uh… "

In order to infiltrate the human kingdom, Mickey, who has turned into a very ugly (thinks himself) human form, and with the help of his mother's friend, a senior dragon, paid ten scales as a reward to complete the exit procedures. Dazed, he frowned and asked softly, "No? What should I do then?"

The staff immediately recovered, and was a little embarrassed.

After all, it's really rude to say that someone else's country doesn't exist in person. What's even more uncomfortable is that the person in front of him is really handsome, with thick red hair that has never been seen before, bright like a flame, as handsome as the gods in Greek mythology, plus a two-meter-tall His height and his condescending gaze not only carried his own noble temperament, but also seemed to have a sense of majesty invisibly (in fact, they were all false appearances), which made any slight faux pas seem a bit offensive when placed in front of him.

The always strict staff coughed dryly: "I, I'll check it for you."

He hurriedly lowered his head and looked at the computer screen again. While typing on the keyboard, he struggled to find the system manually, while he couldn't help but mutter: "I'm so sorry, this is the first time I really hear about this country. Where is your country? Is it Africa? I heard that there are many small countries in Africa that I have never heard of... Hey, wait, I found it! There really is a claw root country?"

When the immigration staff was amazed at the fact that there really is a claw root country...

On the other side, Sammy and his second brother Dunbar, who came to pick up the plane, were also struggling to find and ask around.

It took a full half an hour before they saw the landing time of the flight marked 'Zugen to the United States' and the information on which exit on a corner screen.

"There really is a country called Claw Roots," Dunbar couldn't help muttering to himself.

"Blue Star is so big, it's normal for some small, unknown countries." Sammy replied with a heart.

"Okay." Dunbar didn't want to continue to struggle with this boring geography question with his brother.

He turned to the matter and asked: "Do you know what your netizen looks like? How will we find someone later? Do you want to write a sign in advance?"

"Wait, he left a message saying that he was very recognizable and that he was red. I guess it means red hair? He also sent me a photo in advance."

As Sammy said, he continued to rummage through the mail on his mobile phone: "I received it during the meeting yesterday, but I was too busy to read it. I remember that the subject of the email seems to be Mickey... Yes, Mickey, Mickey's photo... ah, found it!"

Then, he smiled and clicked on the photo: "Speaking of which, this is the first time I have seen a netizen, let me take a look..."

Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.

There was silence in the air.

Dunbar, who was waiting to hear the following, couldn't help but look over in doubt, and babbled nonsense: "What's the matter? Is it ugly? You are wrong. To make friends, you can't just look at beauty and ugliness, but you should confirm that it's really good-looking. , it's not P's, and then make friends with him. So, it's not reliable to make friends. Take it and show it to my brother, how ugly is it?"

But when he put his head close and looked at the photo, he was silent.

A few seconds later, the second brother Dunbar burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Sammy! Admit it, you are being tricked!"

He laughed until tears almost came out: "This is your netizen? Haha, this is the netizen you want to pick up!?"

I have to say, ignoring other issues, this photo is too much for Sammy's aesthetic.

A gorgeous oversized giant dragon, like taking a photo of an ID, stands in a lush forest, with two big wings closed behind him, his front paws on his chest, and his round eyes as large as light bulbs seem to be somewhat Looking at the camera with embarrassment, a bloody mouth is wide open, revealing a row of hideous white fangs, it seems to be smiling, but the expression is very... shy and timid!
