Chapter Twenty-Six: Jenny's Birthday
Even with TV shows, Catherine remembers a lot of them.
The most classic escape is not mentioned, and there are also The Big Bang Theory, Friends, Lost World, etc., etc.
These are all mouth-watering films worth recommending.
The movie is profitable, but it will take a few years, and now the most profitable is TV.
Catherine returned to the bathroom and looked at herself again, finally able to put on her clothes.
There are some weaknesses on a person's body, for example, when some people's waist is attacked, they will become weak and paralyzed. In the past life, Catherine was also like this, but in this life, such feelings seem to have risen.
"My god, I don't even have Slavic ancestry, how could it be so easy?"
Catherine suddenly thought that her mother seemed to have Nordic ancestry, could it be true?
Cough.
In short, June 1st is the release of "The Prisoner of Azkaban", and in July, if there are no accidents, "Blair Witch" will also be released.
So at that time it will definitely be very busy, so she took the opportunity to apply for GameTV's patent and mouse patent.
Why is there still a patent for mouse?
Catherine suddenly thought that at this age mouse had not yet appeared, so she assembled a roller mouse very neatly.
After all, the ancestor of the mouse appeared in 1964, and the patent was applied for only in 1968.
Why can't I be the inventor of the mouse myself?
She then took the opportunity to apply for a patent for the mouse while applying for a patent for GameTV.
Catherine immediately began making preparations for Jenny's birthday celebration.
Westerners like to throw parties and celebrate whenever they encounter something big.
Incidentally, Catherine's birthday is also on June 1st, which is the day when the third volume of "Harry Potter" was released. At that time, Catherine was also 13 years old.
Then came April 8th, 1961.
"Is... this Jenny's home?"
When Catherine first followed Lily and others to Jenny's home, she was frightened.
However, it seems that the three of them have become somewhat used to each other. After all, they are slightly older than Catherine and got to know Jenny a bit earlier, so maybe they had already come last year.
"I didn't expect her to have a villa on this side of Pennsylvania either. When she told me at the time, I really didn't think so."
"Does Jenny have another villa somewhere else?"
"Yes, there is another one in California."
Catherine's home is also a single-family house. In fact, many middle-class or above Americans have such separate houses.
Catherine's family was relatively wealthy, so they also lived in such a house.
In the United States, most people living in urban apartments are relatively poor. Of course, it's also impossible to rule out some high-end apartments or those who prefer convenience.
But this villa in front of us can be described as a "manor".
However, since all the houses around here are like this, it doesn't stand out that much.
"It looks really good, much bigger than California!" Ida exclaimed, but there seemed to be a hint of melancholy in her eyes.
"I heard this is her grandfather's villa, and it's her grandfather who wants to celebrate her birthday!"
So that's how it is.
"Partners~"
It was Jenny who came out to greet them.
"Jenny, I really didn't expect that you guys are so wealthy!" Lisa looked at the house and sighed in amazement.
"This is grandfather's house, but it doesn't amount to much."
Jenny shrugged her shoulders.
America was never a country in the traditional sense, but rather a union of capital, a paradise for capital. In this country, having many rich people is also normal.
Jenny's family is wealthy, but among the rich, it's also hard to rank high, and can only be said to have a small influence.
"It really doesn't show."
Catherine looked at Jenny and compared her with a year ago, she had indeed changed a lot.
Not only are there no freckles, but the skin has also become smooth and fair, and now without glasses, she really looks like a noble lady. It's really great.
The US has many rich people, but when I actually met one for the first time, I didn't expect that person to be my classmate.
They quickly walked into the house.
"Welcome, Jenny's classmates."
An approximately 60-year-old elderly man came out.
"I'm Jenny's grandfather, and I'm Roman White." Old White gave a warm smile towards the few people.
"Thanks for the movie."
Catherine suddenly thought of the film's problem, which was also solved by him. Because it was a B-movie and not too banned, their film was cut after being edited, but it did not affect the development of the story, so to speak, it was a blessing in disguise.
"It's just a small effort, if it were a big company's film, I wouldn't be of much help."
Human feelings exist everywhere, it's just that Americans are more focused on interests, but they can't be said to have no human touch at all.
As for Catherine, she was thinking whether it's time to take revenge on those hateful Catholics.
Anyway, after a few years, it was the anti-war movement and the hippie movement, Christianity's influence in America had fallen to an all-time low, and the film rating system had been established. Catherine thought about whether she should make some movies that made fun of Christianity, like "The Da Vinci Code".
Of course, that's for later. For now, the Catholic Church is still very powerful and its influence on American films will not begin to decline until 1963 and will not completely disintegrate until 1968.
It seems that a major event broke out between 1961 and 1963.
"Cuban Missile Crisis!"
Katherine's eyes lit up, and her intuition told her that she might have a chance to intervene in this matter.
"Kate?"
Lily was being led into the living room by Jenny when she found Catherine standing there in a daze.
"Ah, here it comes!"
Catherine hastily followed up.
They didn't seem to be the main characters of this party, after all, it was Jenny's grandfather Old Wright who set it up, who knows what they were thinking, anyway, it had nothing to do with their own little group, as long as they followed Jenny and had a great time.
However, Catherine's mind was always thinking about the Cuban Missile Crisis.
This is a sign that the Cold War has reached its peak, but unfortunately Khrushchev was not powerful enough and did not drop two nuclear bombs on the United States. I heard that "Khrushchev's nuclear bomb" is the most powerful nuclear bomb in the world...
This is also what Catherine felt most regretful about in her past life. However, to be honest, she doesn't hope for any nuclear explosions to happen this lifetime either.
"Right..."
It seems there was another big thing in 1962.
Sino-Indian War?
She shook her head, Ah San, that kind of guy who could be bullied by anyone, was defeated, and it really didn't feel like an achievement.
What she needs now is an opportunity.
Every business opportunity can be utilized.

As for the view on bra cups, I think that as long as they don't sag, the bigger the better, whether it's due to physical reasons or whatever, just can't let them sag.
