What is the second picture of?


It is from the Chinese epic western series "Damocanglang" (Wolf of the High Desert). In 1932, Hong Tai, a police officer in Shanghai, tried to single-handedly take down a Japanese military espionage and assassination ring against his superior's orders. The Japanese then killed Hong Tai's wife and later kidnapped and murdered his daughter as well. After gunning down a bunch of the Japanese agents and his superior as well for selling him out to the Japanese, Hong Tai left Shanghai for a tiny mining town called Qingfuzheng, all the way in the Taklamakan Desert in Xinjiang Province. There, he found out that the Japanese were also there, in search of a specific ore called "red dust" that is a byproduct of all of the regional mines' activities. From red dust, beryllium metal can be extracted and Hong Tai found out through his allies that the Japanese military is trying to be the first to achieve successful nuclear fission in the world. Beryllium "mirrors" in a reactor amplifies the neutron pulse that is needed to ignite fission reaction and if enough of the beryllium extracted from Xinjiang could be delivered to Japan, they will probably be the first to build nuclear weapons as well, and with World War II in Asia already underway at this point, the situation was critical. Hong Tai also discovered that the Japanese had paid off several very large and powerful bandit gangs in the region to expedite the ore extraction and shipping for them. He eventually organizes a bunch of ragtag rural sheriff's deputies and an assortment of tough men in the region into a very capable force of frontier rangers to take down these bandits, destroy the clandestine spy ring that had infiltrated Xinjiang, and stop the flow of ore to the Japanese army.

Not sure what is happening to the NHL but I saw this during the Wild game.

Goalie left the crease, knelt down on the ice without his stick.

Note the footer in the lower right.

I'm more bothered by what they are trying to peddle as beer.....
Perhaps the beer selection represents the intended audience and that in turn represents the goalies actions ?

I’ve only been watching hockey for a few years, but like the lack of virtue signaling of other sports. Also seems goalies are a bunch of strange dudes.
