Chapter 27: mafia
Five little princesses in luxurious clothes came out of Jenny's room with admiration.
When Jenny came, they had already told them not to wear too good clothes, because after they came here, there would be surprises.
is right in front of my eyes.
The five people are all dressed in beautiful retro princess dresses.
Catherine was wearing a white skirt at this time, looking like a delicate white swan.
"It's so beautiful, Jenny." Ada was also very happy. She is a black dress, and the design of the dress boldly reveals half of the back. It seems that Jenny really put a lot of thought into choosing clothes based on each person's characteristics.
"Jenny, why do you have so many beautiful retro clothes here?"
Lily trimmed her skirt.
"My grandfather likes nostalgia very much, so I have a collection of these clothes, and there is also a special place for display."
"Really?!" Lisa's eyes lit up, "Let's go and see!"
"Time is running out...but it's okay to see."
Jenny took a few people along the corridor for a while, then came to a door, and then opened it.
Inside there are many models, all of them are luxurious dresses, and there is no dust at all. It seems that people often clean them.
These clothes are women's clothing from the 18th to 19th centuries. The biggest similarity is the thin waist, which seems to be the fashion of Europeans at that time.
"This waist is really thin." Lily looked at it and said.
Listening to this, Catherine looked at her waist, and it seemed... there was no “tight” feeling, right?
"Ours is an imitation, in fact, the waistband has no function at all, but the clothes of these models are genuine 19th century, and they are treasures."
are indeed treasures. Some of them are decorated with diamonds and gold. It seems that the collection of these clothes is expensive.
Suddenly, Catherine noticed a golden corset, but she looked stranger.
"Why is there no arm position for this?"
Catherine noticed that although the clothes were luxurious, they seemed to be worn by people without hands.
"That is the De Mello corset, which is meant to be tied up. You know, at that time women's rights were not guaranteed, and men liked some strange things."
Jenny explained.
Indeed, in a sense, the waistband is indeed the same as the Chinese foot binding, it is a deformed aesthetic.
But sometimes the thin waist does look good?
Lisa is very interested in these costumes.
But now they don’t have so much time to stay and appreciate.
"Well, girls, we should go." Jenny looked at the clock hanging on the wall. They had been delayed for a long time.
A group of princesses came to the hall with a smile like this.
"Happy birthday, Jenny!"
was entering the hall when a handsome man greeted him. Jenny hesitated, but smiled at him.
"Who is he?" Catherine asked quietly, but did not expect to be heard by him.
"This beautiful girl, my name is Jeffrey Gambino."
"Ah...Hello."
Gambino?
Suddenly, Catherine's mouth became big.
Mafia!
The three words suddenly appeared in Catherine's heart.
Yes, the United States in the 1960s was when the Mafia was rampant. The famous film "The King of War" also used a background of this time.
The Buiano family, the Kolobo family, the Gambino family, the Genovese family and the Luces family, these five families are also the most powerful among the current mafia, and they are also the most rampant in the United States. Of the five families.
Catherine hesitated, but in the end she could only restore her calm.
After all, not everyone called Gambino is a mafia.
But then, Catherine looked around, but suddenly realized that it seems that this is the same thing...
The people on the dance floor may look polite, but the fierce man standing next to them is obviously protecting these people. Their waist grabs are half exposed. If you can’t see it, then it’s a failure to be a man by yourself. Up.
"Could it be that Jenny's grandfather is also because of this relationship, so..."
Catherine suddenly thought of her own movie.
In Hollywood of this age, it can be said that there are no people who have nothing to do with the Mafia.
As long as someone from Hollywood doesn't have anything to do with the Mafia, then basically it is impossible for this person to have any fame.
This situation is somewhat similar to Hong Kong in the 1980s.
In other words, if they put pressure on the Motion Picture Association of America...
This is indeed a simple task, and my own film is not considered a big investment and heavyweight. Since I was greeted, maybe it would simply pass. Even Catholics are afraid of death.
Catherine carefully recalled the history of the American Mafia.
The Mafia in the United States is probably the prototype of the initial formation of Italian immigrants. Their power in the United States rose during the Great Depression in the 1930s and reached its strongest in the mid-20th century until a series of FBIs from the 1970s to the 1980s. The investigation dismantled their power.
In 1961, with the advent of the golden age of the United States, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is also the last pinnacle of the Mafia.
The American Mafia (Italian) initially gained power in the New York area, and now it has gradually formed five families, Gambino is one of them.
The Gambino family now in power is Carlo Gambino who has the most vision and brain among them.
The reason why Catherine knew this character is also very simple.
Because he is the prototype of the movie "The Godfather"!
He has been prosecuted countless times, but has never been convicted!
Carlo Gambino is well versed in politics and law, and he is the only godfather who makes law enforcement agencies helpless. Apart from the ubiquitous influence and dazzling wealth, no one knows what he has done.
Catherine once considered whether she was going to shoot a "Godfather", but by this time, she realized that she had to be careful. She didn't want to touch some people's mold.
"It would be great if you traveled to the 80s..."
Catherine whispered.
Indeed, in the 1980s, everything was available, and New York’s law and order began to improve at that time.
was thinking wildly, but she was hit by Ada. Only then did she realize that she had been in a daze, but this Jeffrey was still polite.
"Excuse me, I'm lost. My name is Catherine, and I'm glad to meet you."
"It's okay, beautiful lady."
Looking at each other, Catherine couldn't feel energetic.
She always feels a little uncomfortable to have a relationship with the Mafia.
"Look, one day, I will reach a point where you all look up!"
Somehow, such a thought began to appear in Catherine's heart.
