?在意大利西西里岛有句俗话:世界太危险了,孩子必需有两个父亲才行。???Therefore after arriving atcertainage, the childfatherwill request that localprestigiousperson, godfather who actschild.
因此到达一定年龄后,孩子父亲就会请求当地有威望的人,来充当孩子的教父。Alsoinvolves the religious issueinUnited Statesthis, Catholic ChurchandEastern Orthodox Churchin the childbaptismtime, will choose the godfatherfor the child and ensure educates the childcorrectreligious meaning.
在美国这还涉及到宗教问题,天主教和东正教在孩子洗礼时候,会为孩子挑选教父,保证教育孩子正确的宗教教义。Thinks that thisword, in the brainis very easyto jump the criminal syndicate, thathoarse-voicedbig shot, holds in the mouth the rootsmoketo hidein the darkness.
想到这个词,脑子里很容易蹦出黑帮,那位声音沙哑的大佬,叼根烟躲在黑暗中。Actuallydevelopstoday, itsmeaninghad changed, affectswith the Huaxiaadoptive fatherprobablyis similar.
其实发展到今天,它的含义早就发生了变化,大概作用跟华夏的干爹差不多。Betweentwogood friends, will requestgodfatherorgodmother who the opposite partyis the child, thisis the type the affirmationto the personal character, the opposite partymostlywill be gladto accept.
两个好朋友之间,也会请求对方做自己孩子的教父或教母,这是种对品德的肯定,对方大多会乐意接受。Han Xuanfound a Charliefacehope the look, clear(ly)knows that heplannedcameto pave the wayforoneselfusing the Hanpower and influence, the words that butrejectedhow said that after allalsoate the thing that othersare inviting.韩宣瞧见查理德一脸渴望的眼神,明知道他打算利用韩家权势来为自己铺路,但拒绝的话怎么都说不出口,毕竟还吃着别人请的东西呢。IfNikki Hiltonfortunately, at leastis perhaps more law-abiding than herelder sister, butLiz is completely a femaledemon.
要是妮基-希尔顿或许还好点,至少比她姐姐安分,可帕丽斯完全是个女魔头。WithLizvisionlooking at each other.
和帕丽斯目光对视。Detected that hervigilantthoughts, hearto have the person who does not know to suddenlybe the godfather, has been ableto tryto take responsibilityatheragealone, butsheobviouslydoes not want, wroteon the facediscontentedly.
察觉到她的警惕心思,忽然间听到有个不认识的人要做自己教父,以她年纪已经可以试着独自做主了,而她明显是不愿意的,不满写在了脸上。Howagainis only13 years old, aboutpower and influence that adultslikes, nottoomanyinterests.???
再怎么样才十三岁而已,对大人们喜欢的权势,还没太多兴趣。???Han Xuandoes not thinkherbecausearrive, produceswith the previous generationdifferentcharacters, canlookfromherpresentlook.韩宣并不认为她会因为自己到来,产生跟前世不一样的性格,从她现在眼神里就能看出来。In the future, becauseifshewent badHan„clearreputation”, is not only the father, the old gentleman and grandfather will also be depressed.
将来要是因为她坏了韩家的“清誉”,不仅是老爹,老爷子和外公也会郁闷。Rinses mouthto scratch the water drop of cleanmouth, finallythinks that a tactfulreason, rejectsCharlie.
漱完口擦干净嘴边的水珠,终于想到个委婉的理由,拒绝查理德。„My familyis the Chineseimmigrates. Has not recognized the approach of godfather, possiblymy fatherwill not comply, butIaskhis.”
“我家是华人移民。没有认教父的做法,可能我父亲不会答应,但是我会问问他的。”Charlieexpressionobviouslygawked, pursuesasks: „Yourgrandfatherjustdid not recognizeGeorge Prescott Bush, asowngodchild?”
查理德表情明显愣了下,追问道:“你爷爷不是刚认了乔治-普雷斯科特-布什,做为自己的教子么?”„Godchild?”
“教子?”Han Xuanhad not heardthismatter, changes mindandremembersthisname. Narrows the eyeopens the mouth: „YousayBush? Bushfamily?”韩宣没听说过这件事,转念又想起这个名字。眯起眼睛开口:“你是说布什?布什家族的?”„Right, heis the formerpresidentBush Sr.'seldest grandson, the fatherisJohn- Ellis Bush, hisuncleGeorge Wouk Bush, justwonTexasgovernor.”
“对啊,他是前任总统老布什的长孙,父亲是约翰-埃利斯-布什,他的叔叔乔治-沃克-布什,刚赢得德克萨斯州的州长职务。”
Was Han Xuanstartled the openingmouth, when the old gentlemanis in cahootswithBushfamily?韩宣惊得张大嘴巴,老爷子什么时候跟布什家族狼狈为奸了?Notlikehisattitude.
不像他作风啊。InUnited Statespolitical circlenumerousrich and powerful familyaristocratic families, only thenKennedyfamilycancompare favorablywithBushfamily, the grandfather of old gentlemangodchild, is the United Statesformerpresident. The uncleis the president, the whole familywill not take part in governmentin the futurepursues commerce, the influence needlessto say.???
在美国政界众多豪门世家中,只有肯尼迪家族能跟布什家族媲美,老爷子这个教子的爷爷,是美国前任总统。叔叔未来也是总统,一家人不是从政就是从商,影响力不用多说。???Thismatternaturally not talk aboutwithvery muchCharlie, the calming downmindrepliedhim: „Youknow that my fatherandmygrandfatherare different, hedoes not likethismatter.”
这种事情自然不好跟很查理德谈,稳下心神回答他:“你知道的,我父亲和我爷爷性格不同,他不是太喜欢这种事情。”Charlienaturallylistens to the meaning that the boyrejected, the expressiondisappointedly.
查理德当然听出了男孩拒绝的意思,表情略带失望。Howeverthinks is also, goddaughter'spositionis equivalent toanotherdaughter. Thisonly sonnaturallydoes not hope that manyindividualsandhestruggle for favor.
不过想想也是,教女的地位相当于另外一个女儿。这个独生子当然不会希望多个人和他争宠。Has not actually thought that becauseHan Xuanunderstands that his daughteris the courting disasteressence, is not willingto comply. In the mindthinksis going into actionbyownfather, asks that the meaning of theirfamily/homeis good.
却没想到因为韩宣明白他的女儿是个惹祸精,才不肯答应。脑海里思索着得让自己父亲出马,问问他们家的意思才行。Insurfacewith no trace, saidwith a smile: „Good, Mr.Anthonyshouldbe quick, Iarrange the car(riage)to sendyouto the airport, that sideBritishhotelIrelates......”
表面上不露痕迹,笑着说道:“那好吧,安东尼先生应该快下来了,我去安排车送你们去机场,英国那边的酒店我来联系……”Soon.
不久。TwoRolls-Royce. Top the compartmentis embroidering the name of Hiltonwith the gold thread.
两辆劳斯莱斯出发。车厢顶部用金线绣着希尔顿酒店的名称。Han XuanandAnthonysit togetherabreast in row, recalled that just before leavingtimeLiz'slook, understood the possiblewoundtoherheart.韩宣和安东尼并排坐在一起,回想临走时候帕丽斯的眼神,明白可能伤到她的心了。
Does she like a matter, butwas given the rejectionis a different matter, from infancy to maturityis pampered since childhood. Was namednamed„princessgot sick” a sickness, Charlieforcedto request, possiblydeliverswill not deliverthem.
她喜不喜欢是一回事,但被人给拒绝又是另一回事,从小到大娇生惯养。俗称得了种叫做“公主病”的病,要不是查理德强制要求,可能送都不会来送他们。Theseare not, currentlyalsohas a more importantmatter that Han Xuancares.
这些不是韩宣所在意的,现在还有更重要的事情。Pinched the foreheadto askAnthony: „ How can mygrandfatherhave the relationswithBushfamily?
捏了捏眉心问安东尼:“我爷爷怎么会和布什家族扯上关系?Does thisis not quite good, nowPresidentBill Clinton of Democratic Partyis in power, butBushfamily is actually Republican Party, Ifeared, haswhatissue. ”
这样做不太好吧,如今民主党的比尔-克林顿总统执政,而布什家族却是共和党,我怕以后产生什么问题。”Anthonyis looking at the companythese days the data report, hearsboss'sinquirysuddenly, closes the folder, reorganizes the mentality.安东尼正在看公司这段时间数据报表,突然间听见老板的询问,合上文件夹,整理思路。Repliedhim: „ Special detailsIdo not know, butthisisBush Sr.requested that yourgrandfatherran intohimat a meetinga while ago, Ialsopresent.
回答他:“具体情况我不知道,但这是老布什请求的,你爷爷前段时间在一次聚会上遇到了他,我也在场。Jeangeorges Prescott Bushrecognizeshimfor the godfather, has not detained the completenet worthtoRepublican Partyon.
只是让乔治-普雷斯科特-布什认他为教父,没有把全部身家押到共和党头上。This is good, at leastexplained that the people in Republican Partyhad a liking foryourgrandfather, wantedto indicateto be intimate with.
这是件好事,至少说明共和党内的人看上你爷爷了,想要表示亲近。Nowhas not enraged the action of Democratic Party, IthinkinDemocratic Partynotbecause ofthisminor matter, butprovokesyourgrandfather, suchapproach is very internally normal.
现在还没有触怒民主党的举动,我想民主党内不会因为这件小事而去招惹你爷爷,这样的做法在国内很正常。It is estimated thatDemocratic Partywill also extend the olive branchto come out, has the help of 10 billionrich and powerful people, campaigncanhave very bigadvantage, your grandfather'spositionin the peoplemindis high.
估计民主党也会伸橄榄枝出来,有位百亿富豪的帮助,竞选方面能占很大优势,你爷爷在民众心目中地位非常高。Does businessmust certainlyhave to dowith the government, so long asdisagrees a sideinvolvestoodeeply, absolutelydoes not have the issue.
做生意肯定要和政府打交道,只要不和其中一方牵扯太深,绝对没问题。Insteadcanincrease the Mr. Haninfluence, had the help of Bushfamily, Texasand several other states, in the businesswill not at least meetto create obstacles, Bushfamilysupreme headquartersinthat.
反而能增加韩先生的影响力,有了布什家族的帮助,至少德克萨斯等南方几个州,生意上不会遇到刁难,布什家族大本营就在那。Ihave seenPrescott, a veryintelligentchild, shouldbe less thannow20 -year-old, Bush Sr.is trainingasBushfamilythird generationleaderhim.
我见过普雷斯科特,很聪明的一个孩子,现在应该不到二十岁,老布什正将他作为布什家族第三代领军人物培养。Buthis fatherthis yearandGeorge Wouk Bush, competes for the Texasgovernorpositionsimultaneously, was defeatedat the weakdisparity.
而他父亲今年和乔治-沃克-布什,同时争夺德克萨斯州州长职位,以微弱的差距落败了。Alsois very ableperson, in the middle oftheirfamilysecond generation, the positionis next toBush Jr . ”
也是位很有能力的人,在他们家族第二代当中,地位仅次于小布什。”Han Xuanthinksslightly,thenthought throughinsideway, old gentlemanworkingis well-organized, matter that Anthonycanwatch, heis impossible unable to look.韩宣稍微想想,便想通了里面的门道,老爷子做事条理清晰,安东尼能看出来的事情,他不可能看不出来。In factat the sosgroupcurrentscale, does not needto be worried, the advantageis obvious.
事实上以sos集团目前的规模,也不用过于担心,其中好处是显而易见的。Had the protection of politician, the businessis easierto launch, Republican Partywill have Democratic Partystronglymaintainswithhisrelations. Oncehostile, means that pushes to the arms of opponentthisChineseold manthoroughly, believes that no oneis willingto seethisresult.
有了政界高层的保护,生意更容易展开,共和党还有民主党会竭力保持和他的关系。一旦敌对,意味着把这位华人老头彻底推向对手的怀抱,相信谁也不愿意见到这种结果。
The money in the handleakingwas the achievements, the campaignfundalsohad the whereabouts, the influencewas the terrifying, a few wordscanchange the companyhundreds of thousands ofemployeethoughts, ifpartytruefool, no onewill not have played dumbatthismatter.
手里漏出来的钱是政绩,竞选资金也有了着落,影响力更是恐怖,一句话能改变公司数十万员工念头,假如党内没有真正的傻子,没人会在这件事情上犯傻。If the old gentlemansupports a sidethoroughly, thatperhaps, thereforerecognizes the positionto be certainly most important.
要是老爷子彻底支持一方的话,那就说不定了,所以认准位置最重要。Responded that the grandfatheris giving the familyto set the protective umbrella, Han Xuanputs aside the puzzledmood, the visionlookstoHigh Street in out of the window.
反应过来爷爷是在给家族设置保护伞,韩宣放下纠结情绪,目光看向窗外的繁华街道。SurpriseGonzalezis hugging the girlto enter the restaurant, is sayingspeechless: „Thisfellow is really the standardblack sheep of the family.”
意外发现冈萨雷斯正搂着位女郎进入餐厅,无语说着:“这家伙真是标准的败家子。”Gabrieltheyalsosaw, the sighresounds throughfor a long time.
