Chapter 413: This is America (Part 2)

"Crossing the fire basin, bad luck is removed!"

Aunt Luo Ni placed a basin with burning flames at the door of the house, letting Miss Luo Quan cross over it.

Leon, Fred, and a group of Americans looked confused, but Eric knew the knowledge inside and explained: "This is an ancient Chinese ritual. People believe that crossing the fire basin can eliminate bad luck and misfortune, so people will cross a fire basin to seek psychological comfort after being unlucky."

Aunt Luo Ni glared at him reproachfully: "What do you mean by psychological comfort? Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."

"Feudal superstition is not advisable, Mom." Miss Luo Quan said so, but still lifted her long legs and crossed over the fire basin.

Fortunately, she was wearing jeans; if she were wearing a skirt, this action would be too indecent.

Crossing the fire basin means bad luck goes away, and it also means this prison disaster has completely turned the page, and life has opened a brand new chapter.

Because she had just come out of the detention center, Eric didn't make a big fuss at home, just invited everyone to have a simple meal at home in a low-key manner.

Although Miss Luo Quan had been tossed for so long and even stayed in the detention center for a few days, it wasn't completely without harvest.

At least Angela was willing to communicate with Eric there.

Speaking of which, Miss Luo Quan also blocked a disaster for her younger sister this time, and Angela's family also expressed sincere gratitude to her.

Eric also took this opportunity to go up and ask for the forgiveness of Angela and her mother.

Angela's adoptive father showed great generosity, leaving the room to the three of them and walking out by himself.

This is trust in his wife, and also the breadth of mind a man should have.

After the room was closed, the three of them stayed inside for about twenty minutes.

No arguing was heard, and when they came out, all three had relaxed and relieved expressions on their faces.

It seems that the knot in the mother and daughter's hearts had been eliminated. For everyone, this was another great happy event.

The next day, everyone returned to their homes and continued to be busy with their own work.

Miss Luo Quan didn't return to China immediately but found an abandoned parking lot, preparing to record an MV.

The reason she encountered such trouble this time was that Hancock was the mastermind, and those black-hearted media were direct accomplices.

Now Hancock was being investigated for suspected fake evidence, and besides facing pressure from the US government, he also had to face double strikes from the Albert Group and the Rothschild family.

In order to vent his anger for his son, Hancock could be said to have lost his mind and wanted Miss Luo Quan to go to jail. It's a pity the plan failed, and it was foreseeable that the company would be cold.

Now the mastermind had been sanctioned, but that group of media hadn't received any punishment. Even when Miss Luo Quan came out of the court, these people were still scrambling to interview her, asking about her feelings inside.

That is, killing is against the law. If it weren't against the law, these bastards would have gone to see God that day.

Because there were too many media companies involved, it was unrealistic to go and roast them one by one, and Miss Luo Quan didn't have this energy.

Simply shoot an MV, scold all the media that had slandered her, and at the same time satirize this terrible social atmosphere.

Not just the "politically correct" that is sensitive to the point of perversion.

Because of filming Resident Evil before, Miss Luo Quan contacted a large group of extras and film crew staff this time, and the protagonist of the MV was still a black man. She was only responsible for rapping and music, and didn't appear in the camera at all.

The shooting of the MV took her three full days, and she didn't contact any record company after it was produced, but released it directly on her Twitter and YouTube accounts.

The name of this rap MV was "This is America." By the time the MV was released, Miss Luo Quan had already boarded the plane back to China.

The "New York Trial" of the past few days had attracted the attention of the whole world, and the fame of the protagonist Miss Luo Quan was also pushed to an unprecedented peak.

There were many people scolding her, but there were also many people defending her. The discussion and scolding war generated by this case lasted for half a month.

And in the end, Miss Luo Quan used irrefutable evidence to prove her innocence and let the world see that her character was as impeccable as her looks.

The case had been settled, but everyone was still waiting for Miss Luo Quan to make a summary of the whole thing.

Everyone knew that Miss Luo Quan was never a person who would swallow her anger after suffering a loss. If she spoke, it would definitely be a big move.

However, no one would have thought that Miss Luo Quan actually shot an MV in these three days, and this MV made everyone, especially all Americans, have a huge resonance.

As soon as the MV was released, the first to rush into Miss Luo Quan's Twitter account were those media, both unscrupulous and conscientious. They all wanted to grasp Miss Luo Quan's news at the first time.

Then came her fans. Miss Luo Quan's fans didn't decrease but increased during the few days she was in the detention center. On the day of the trial, they increased by more than 7 million in one breath. Now she is a big Twitter user with more than 60 million followers.

People clicked on the MV. After the black screen, the scene switched to an empty parking lot, where a chair with a guitar was quietly placed in the open space.

Outside the screen, joyful chanting in the style of a choir kept coming. A black man in a plaid shirt walked over, sat on the chair, and started playing the guitar.

The camera moved back, and a black man with his upper body bare and a big beard appeared on the screen, starting to dance with the music. The whole picture looked full of joy.

It seemed as if Miss Luo Quan was expressing her inner happiness and triumph in this way.

However, soon, the bearded black man was dancing, came behind the black man playing the guitar, reached out from behind, took out a pistol, and pulled the trigger at the back of the guitar-playing black man's head.

With a "bang" gunshot, the style of the MV changed suddenly, and the style of the accompaniment also changed, and Miss Luo Quan's rap began to sound.

Subsequently, the entire MV began a performance that could be called crazy.

Dancers moving like zombies, white people throwing money on cars, reporters holding cameras and stepping on the scales, gang members full of tattoos and smoking, school bullies punching classmates...

Too many elements appeared behind the black dancer. Although the perspective of the MV was all focused on the dancer, and his dance was indeed outstanding, the real essence was the background behind him.

Bizarre, absurd, unbelievable—this was the first feeling this MV gave people.

The entire MV reached a climax with a group of students wearing graduation gowns.

They stood on the trapezoidal platform, singing the gospel chanting at the beginning of the MV, as if taking a graduation photo, with happy expressions full of hope for the future.

The black dancer also walked in front of them with a smile, but a submachine gun was thrown into his hands. The dancer's expression instantly became fierce, and he turned to shoot.

The students all fell to the ground in an instant, and the blood spilled on the wall behind, looking so dazzling.

From this node, the background in the MV became even crazier, as if everything had lost control, and people's behavior became more and more violent.

Just when everyone thought the end of the world was coming, the MV suddenly returned to calm.

The black dancer danced alone on the car. The camera pulled

The scene shifts again; a Black dancer is running in a silent underground garage, with black and white pillars beside him, while behind him are several white men chasing him.

The MV ends completely here, and many people are drenched in cold sweat by the time they see this.

The level of shock from this MV is comparable to a theatrical blockbuster; although it is only a little over four minutes long, the richness of the content it contains truly exceeds everyone's imagination.

Less than half an hour after the MV was released on Miss Luo Quan's Twitter, the likes exceeded 100,000, retweets exceeded 100,000, and the number of comments exceeded 100,000!

Countless fans, and even celebrities, have left their thoughts in the comment section:

"In the past, I only felt enjoyment listening to Miss Luo Quan's songs; this is the only song that made my scalp tingle and made me feel like I was sitting on pins and needles after watching it."

"It's truly too pungent; Miss Luo Quan has almost satirized all the ugly social phenomena in the United States, and also satirized all extremist groups."

"Miss Luo Quan never discriminates against Black people; she is only targeting those who like to discriminate against others."

"These American media outlets should feel ashamed; they slandered Miss Luo Quan's reputation based on pure hearsay, yet even now, they refuse to offer a single apology."

"Just like the name of the MV, this is America!"

"As expected of Miss Luo Quan; she sees through the deep-rooted problems existing in the United States more thoroughly than those so-called experts. I felt a strong resonance from this MV!"

"Those experts only sit in their studies conducting surveys, while Miss Luo Quan has truly experienced these things; after all, only practice can lead to true knowledge."

"This MV should win a Grammy."

……………………

A song titled *This Is America* has caused a monstrous wave in the United States.

From a musical perspective, this song is rich in Rap elements and has a strong sense of rhythm; in every aspect, it is a top-tier work.

And its MV is even more stunningly excellent; its artistic value is comparable to an excellent satirical film. Condensing so much content into a mere four minutes is a huge test of the director's conception.

Miss Luo Quan accomplished this very well, with excellent plot design that makes the entire MV full of impact.

This is definitely an excellent work that provokes deep thought; combined with her experiences over the past period, it makes people reflect even more.

After encountering unfair treatment, she did not attack the Black community.

Originally, everyone thought she would write a song to complain about Black people; at that time, whatever she said would have been reasonable, and even if she had openly engaged in racial discrimination on Twitter, or even broken the law, Black people wouldn't have been able to say anything to Miss Luo Quan.

Because they were the ones who wronged Miss Luo Quan first.

However, Miss Luo Quan did not make such a choice, but instead turned the target of her bombardment toward the root cause of all this hatred.

It is the black-hearted media, the evil capitalists, and all the bastards who discriminate against others.

What Miss Luo Quan is truly criticizing are these people.

Besides this, Miss Luo Quan also criticizes social chaos such as guns, street gangs, school violence, fake news, and capital controlling public opinion.

These are stubborn diseases rooted deep in American society, and when mixed together, they form the greatest source of conflict.

Before this, no work had dared to expose all these problems so directly. Miss Luo Quan achieved this, and it indeed had a certain effect; many TV stations began to mention this MV in their programs.

Many critics also began to analyze the content of this MV and began to call for the government to pay attention to the problems presented within it.

For the U. S. government, Miss Luo Quan's MV is definitely no small trouble, because she tore apart the carefully whitewashed peace and revealed the bloody truth.

On the other hand, they are also very grateful to Miss Luo Quan.

Because she used a less intense way to give the masses a channel to vent their dissatisfaction.

Complaining online is better than organizing protests in reality.

Compared to those organizers who take to the streets at the slightest disagreement, Miss Luo Quan is truly too kind; she not only opened a vent for the pent-up resentment but also avoided a further escalation of conflict.

The government also soon issued a statement praising Miss Luo Quan's MV, calling it a manifestation of the American conscience and a thinker who truly cares about the country, while also promising to take corresponding measures to alleviate conflicts and solve problems.

Of course, saying it is one thing, and how it is specifically done is another.

However, in this world, Miss Luo Quan ultimately completely reversed her image among the public.

The misunderstandings were clarified, the grievances were washed away, and she once again became the perfect goddess in the hearts of the world; through this trial, her image even became fuller and more three-dimensional.

But it is not over yet; she still has one last breath of anger to vent.

After she arrived in Shanghai, which was half a day after the MV was released, she sent a second tweet:

"Now, I am waiting for a belated apology."

She and Hancock are irreconcilable enemies; reaching this point is not something that can be solved by an apology.

What she is demanding is an apology from those media outlets; she wants to seek justice for the false accusations she suffered.

If she had sent this tweet before the MV was released, Miss Luo Quan might not have been able to get any justice from those media outlets.

But now her reputation among officials and the public has reached its peak, and the energy brought by her speaking out is truly too terrifying.

As soon as this tweet came out, millions of fans immediately swarmed the media outlets that had slandered Miss Luo Quan one by one, and the New York police also said they would launch an investigation into Hancock's control of the media.

Under this immense pressure, these media outlets could no longer act as tough as they had before, and one after another, they posted apology statements on their official Twitter accounts.

They offered a profound and sincere apology for the previous false news reported about Miss Luo Quan and promised never to make such mistakes again.

Although the promises of these media outlets are always as fickle as autumn weather, this is the first victory Miss Luo Quan has achieved against them.

This is a victory worth commemorating.
