The events at the Blue Sky Racecourse have been frequently mentioned recently.
Although it does not have a competition level certified by the FEI, and the competition is a competition between amateurs and professionals, its huge prize money is very attractive!
There are almost no equestrian competitions in the world with such high prize money, which is called "money-burning entertainment".
Joanna decided to participate at the beginning of the year. Four years ago, she obtained the star certification of a professional rider. In addition, her war horse "Gina" is very talented, coupled with the acquired biological improvement, in the last dressage competition, almost It is to crush the opponent all the way, and the performance of the horse racing is impeccable.
An Feng's friend also benefited. Matthew had been thinking about improving the horse for a long time. Later, An Feng kindly gifted him a five-year-old horse, and he won honors in the competition. The following events became popular, and their circles were all joining in the fun, and the big shots had more or less played.
Matthew said: "Let me see, this year me, Joanna, and Lisa will participate, Bruce, how about you?"
"I won't participate, I will be a cheerleader with my children." An Feng said.
Matthew looked at him: "You did the same thing last time."
An Feng said with a smile: "Let Joanna show up, and I won't make a fool of myself."
An Feng is not interested in participating. He and Alice are the cheerleaders for every competition. Since Fred was added to the family, the cheerleading team has expanded to three people, plus other relatives and friends. The number is considerable. Do this again this year, let the mother of the child shine.
…
The competition plan is to be held in early June, and there is more than one month left. Joanna often finds time to train in the manor, and An Feng brings her children to cheer her on. Equestrian sports can best show her valiant demeanor, and she has a unique charm, which is why An Feng likes to watch it.
But for the sake of entertainment, she didn't spend all her time on this.
The equestrian competition can be promoted. According to Joanna's idea, dressage and jumping competitions are held at the racecourse, but the cross-country competition is set up at An's Winery because of the large demand for the venue, which has hundreds of acres of green space. , surrounded by lush vineyards.
Racing in this manor environment is very elegant.
The organizer of the event did what the female boss wanted. There was nothing wrong with the racecourse, but the winery needed to be paid attention to, that is, to reflect the image of the winery as much as possible. After eight years of precipitation, the brand of the winery "ANS" has gradually been recognized by the society, and its own value has also increased.
So the environment of the game will be reported in the newspaper and recorded by the camera.
In addition to caring about some equestrian events, An Feng also has affairs with himself, such as the upcoming FIA-EGT event at the Amoeba Circuit. This year's race was later due to differences in the FIA over the horsepower of the cars, but it was resolved peacefully and the second leg was set in California.
The Amoeba Circuit is the home of the GP team.
GP team is a well-known team in auto races in recent years. The team has more than 300 employees and participates in many electric car events, from formula to top touring car races to electric rally races. The most outstanding is FE, the ace driver John Cooper has won the championship for five consecutive years.
In the EGT race, the GP team also has an ace. The talented Chinese driver Zhou Hang is also a dazzling new star. Although his starlight is covered by the "five-time champion" Cooper, he is also very good. The two-time EGT champion , Among the many supporters, there are quite a few Asians.
The race was held on Sunday afternoon, and An Feng wanted to go to the racing track in the morning. Then Alice entangled him: "Dad, I also want to go to see the car."
An Feng looked down at her: "Didn't you agree to accompany Fred to play on the beach yesterday?"
"But Fred doesn't want to go to the beach," she said.
"Really?" An Feng looked at the cute little son who opened his mouth to express his dissatisfaction. He probably didn't think of words yet.
"Fred told me." She lowered her head and played with the hem of her skirt, coyly.
Joanna came over at this time and said, "Does Fred really not want to?"
"Yes?" She gave away.
"Are you sure?" Joanna looked at her. "Look into my eyes."
Alice dodged, then stomped: "Okay, I want to see the car..."
"I will say the same thing in the future." Joanna reminded her, "If you want to go, let Dad take you there, don't use Fred as your shield."
"I'm sorry." She bowed her head.
Joanna looked up at An Feng: "It doesn't matter if you take her out?"
"It's okay, I will take good care of her." An Feng said, it makes sense for the child to like him so much. Dad is very loose, but mother is dignified.
"Don't let her run around." Joanna came over and helped An Feng tidy up the collar of his shirt, "Look at you, if I don't help you once, I'll forget it."
"I'm used to having you." An Feng hugged her waist, Joanna smiled sweetly, and helped him tidy up slowly.
"Don't look!" Alice covered Fred's eyes.
An Feng turned his head to look at the bear child: "I think you are too conservative, the actions of your mother and I can be put on the street, right?"
"Don't you guys want to kiss?" She pouted.
"We just said goodbye and hugged, not kissed." An Feng convinced her, kissed Joanna on the cheek, and then reached out to Alice: "Let's go, let's go see the car."
"Goodbye Mom! Goodbye Fred!" Alice was holding a hand by An Feng, turned around and waved to them, and then jumped up and down to follow her father's footsteps.
Take care of the child. An Feng drives a four-door car, and the child sits in the back seat. After driving, the bear boy said, "Dad, I'm going to play in a small house with many, many cars."
"That's the car museum." An Feng said.
"Then I'm going to see the car museum." She learned new words.
"Okay." Part of An Feng's plan was ruthlessly crossed out. Taking the children out has to make some sacrifices, even if they didn't think about it at all.
Driving from Santa Barbara, it took over an hour to get to the racetrack. The qualifying race is being held here in the morning, and the number of spectators is not very large, about 20,000. It is estimated that there will be more races in the afternoon. An Feng's car is equipped with a chip, and he can enter the stadium directly after passing the entrance scan.
Drive through the track from the underpass to the center of the racetrack.
The race is being held, and the audience can also use the ticket to add two dollars to enter Anfeng's private racing museum. There is an introduction sign at the entrance of the museum. There are two floors here, covering a wide area. It can accommodate more than 200 vehicles at most, and there are currently more than 140 vehicles in the collection.
There is also a tourist brochure at the entrance. Alice tiptoed to get one, opened it, looked at it, and pointed to one of the words: "Dad, how do you read this?"
An Feng took a look and said, "Murcielago in Spanish means bat."
"Is it a small animal?" Alice pointed to the car in the picture.
"No." An Feng said, "It's the model name of the car. Of course, bats in nature are small animals."
"Can it fly?" Alice asked.
"Yes, it has wings." An Feng said.
"You lied, the car can't fly." Alice frowned and said.
An Feng stopped, smiled and pinched her face: "Are you waiting here for me to step on a trap?"
"Dad is so stupid." Alice said with a smile.
"Alice is the smartest." An Feng took her hand and walked down with the crowd. There were quite a few visitors, and many of them were taking pictures and group photos.
Anfeng has collected a lot in the past five years, some of which were directly purchased from private museums. The largest transaction amounted to 120 million US dollars, and he bought 28 classic collections. This is the way of burning money. Let here It has become another sacred place for car fans besides watching the auto show.
"Dad, I saw it!" Alice pointed to a black LP640 sports car parked in the Lamborghini exhibition area, with an introduction board beside it.
"Yes, that's it." An Feng took her over to have a look. There are also some car fans around who are admiring, and some people skillfully said: "It is a 2006 car model, and it has a history of 20 years. It was a very outstanding supercar back then. I did not expect to see such a well-preserved car. of."
"Dad, I want to take a photo." Alice ran to the car, but she was very sensible and didn't cross the line to touch these collections. Although she was lively, she behaved very well.
"Stand back a little... By the way, that's it." An Feng took a few photos of her with his mobile phone, and the child ran over to see the effect.
"Does it look good?" An Feng said.
"It looks good." She nodded, "Let's continue to look at other things."
An Feng spent all the time in the morning watching the qualifying race and communicating with the team. He spent all his time visiting the museum with his daughter. She doesn't know much, and likes to ask An Feng about everything. He can only explain to her patiently, the history of this car, its brilliance, and how Dad bought it.
There are more than 100 cars, priceless, the most expensive is more than 50 million, and the cheapest is only more than 200,000. In addition to the wealth of the owner of the museum, there is also the persistent pursuit of cars. Later, you can also witness his personal wall of honor and his former royal racing car.
"Dad, have you ever received an award before?" Alice's question interrupted An Feng who was staring at the trophy in a daze.
"Yes, there was no Alice at that time." An Feng pointed to one of the pictures, "Look, those are Dad and your mother, they were in Florida at the time."
"Daddy doesn't have a beard." She stroked her chin.
"That's right." An Feng smiled, and when he turned around to take the child away, a man hesitated and said, "Mr. An, hello!"
"Hello." An Feng nodded.
"Excuse me, can I have an autograph?" The other said, "I like your car."
"Okay." An Feng took the other party's pen, "Where to sign?"
"On the clothes!" Alice said very lively.
An Feng smiled, and the other party nodded: "It's on the clothes."
An Feng signed his artistic English name on the other party's clothes, and then returned the pen to the other party: "Few people will remember these anymore."
The other party was very excited: "You and Cooper are the drivers I support the most. If you hadn't retired back then, the current FE must be a situation where two heroes compete for hegemony."
"It's a pity that I'm old." An Feng said with a smile, and chatted with the other party for a while, because Alice was hungry, so he left politely.
"Dad, you are a big star." Alice said, "You are amazing."
"Dad has always been very good, hasn't he?" An Feng picked her up, "Come on, let's go eat something, and then watch the game in the afternoon!"
In order to take care of Alice in the afternoon race, I watched the race from the spectator stand, but the little girl didn't have racing blood, so she fell asleep in her father's arms halfway through. An Feng watched the whole race with her in his arms. Having won the championship of this station, there is no advantage in fighting at home.
Until he drove away, An Feng did not communicate with the team. Now the state of the GP team is no longer a novice at the beginning. There are pillars in all competitions, and they are responsible for their own profits and losses every year, and even major races are profitable. As a car fan and owner, he is impeccable.
