Happy Birthday

Facts have proved that Anfeng's show was very successful. Although the Pebble Beach Auto Show is not a strict auto show like Frankfurt or Paris, there are many people and media who pay attention to it. The only Ferrari P4/5 in the world used to be at Pebble Beach. The same is true for Anfeng's supercars.

  Its shape and performance are enough to capture the hearts of car fans. Seeing the discussions on the Internet, it greatly satisfies An Feng's vanity as a **** car fan. From a higher perspective, it is also equivalent to improving and changing the impression of Maserati through continuous exposure.

  Maserati has been operating independently in June this year. They may establish an automobile group, acquire automobile brands, and improve the product structure of high, medium and low-end. Now these exposures are to create an image that they also have powerful technology and can provide unique customized services.

  …

  After some time after the auto show, September came.

   Xiongzi and his family have returned to China, and other friends have their own affairs. Anfeng's place has become clean. But with children, there is still a lot of fun. Part of An Feng's focus now is to record Alice's growth, the first time she turned over, the first time she crawled, and the first time she stood up...

  One day Matthew came to visit.

He took his wife, children and pets with him. When the tiger "Diego" got out of the car, he followed the scent to find his good partner, Xiao Hei, and their common opponent, Xiao Bai... Matthew looked at Diego who quickly disappeared in front of him, "It feels like it's behaving like a hound," laughing.

   "Almighty." An Feng said, and greeted William: "Hi, little William!"

   "Hi." William shook his hand.

   "What else?" Matthew reminded him.

  William thought for a while, then realized: "Uncle Bruce."

   "What a smart kid!" An Feng said with a smile, "Come on, let's talk inside."

Joanna and her child were also in the living room. There was a soap opera projected on the wall. The child's mother liked to watch these when she was bored. When Christina came in, she sat down quickly after seeing the content: "I haven't watched this episode yet. , how about the previous story?"

  Joanna explained the previous episode to her while watching.

  An Feng shrugged at Matthew: "Let's leave space for them."

   "Agreed." Matthew nodded.

  They came to the well-built garden outside the house and sat down on the bench. Matthew took out the cigar box from his body and turned his head to ask.

  An Feng said: "Whatever you want, there are no children here."

Smoking cigars is a very time-consuming thing, and usually you have to have an hour to spare. Matthew used the cigar cutter slowly, and there was no pine bar to light the fire. It was just a lighter with no oily smell. He said: "Ten The month is my mother's birthday, and she invited you."

   "I will go, and I haven't seen her for a long time."

   "She has been living in the UK recently and rarely comes back. This time she invited us to go there."

  An Feng suddenly had a question: "How old is she?"

   "Eighty years old."

  An Feng understood: "It is indeed memorable. But the last time I saw her, I still felt that she was seventy years old."

   "Thanks to you for helping her get rid of her illness, and the bio drink." Matthew said, "It makes us all younger, and it feels like the years are flowing backwards."

  An Feng said with a smile: "Isn't this better? There are so many wonderful things in life."

   "It's just a strange feeling. When I get along with Bazel, I don't think he is like a person who is about to be sixty. The high spirits of the past seem to have returned."

   "We'll all be a lot easier that way."

  Matthew nodded: "That's a good thing—except for having to endure his bad temper."

  An Feng smiled: "It's breaking the news."

  …

  In early October, they came to London.

An Feng also brought the child and the nanny, because they might stay for a few days. In addition to attending Mrs. Sinclair's birthday banquet, he had to be invited to watch the new season's football game. This time is of special significance to Liverpool, because Anfield Stadium has become a History, they are going to fight at the Bida Stadium.

  After living in London for a day, the convoy set off.

  The sixth round of the Premier League this year has kicked off. Liverpool played against Chelsea at home. Two money-burning teams collided head-on. Today's Liverpool is the last Triple Crown champion and is in good condition. Chelsea's lineup has also been strengthened by the cheap boss Abramovich.

   The attention of the game is very high. It may not have been so strong in the past, but since Liverpool won the championship, fans have not stopped discussing the two teams. They have a lot of similarity-money. Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich was once the richest man in Britain, and is currently in the top five. Joanna, a native Englishman, is known as the richest woman in Britain, and her joint assets with her husband are conservatively estimated at 15 billion US dollars.

   Then he was willing to spend money. Abramovich's actions after taking over Chelsea let people see how football burns money. The current dame also showed them that money can really solve everything. Life again, Abramovich is indeed extravagant, yachts and planes keep coming, Joanna is not weak at all, the world's largest cruise ship, supersonic plane, and the world's largest private island, etc.

  So to a certain extent, the game is also given the meaning of financial strength.

An Feng arrived on Saturday and stayed at a local hotel. Accompanied by bodyguards the next afternoon, he drove to the location of the new stadium. It was not too far from the original stadium. Regular design, blending edges and lines.

The stadium is named "Bida", which is obviously a beverage advertisement, which also leads to a high-tech background-so the outer wall of the stadium adopts liquid crystal display technology, which can display images, and it can take turns to advertise during the game, especially at night. The lights are particularly dazzling.

  The appearance is also good. Although An Feng can't see much art, it is true that it is better than the old stadium. The psychology of liking the new and loathing the old plays a key role. As a five-star stadium in England, when you walk into the interior, it is indeed worthy of the description of "luxury". There is also a box area.

  According to the introduction, the box is usually a food and beverage store, and it is closed when there is a game. It is a very good business experience to provide it to fans as a box. There, you can see the fiery red auditorium and the huge English "LFC" made of white seats, which is said to be very spectacular.

   It's just that there are too many people now, and the effect cannot be seen.

   "The stadium has a total of 72,000 seats, a maximum capacity of 80,000 people, and 15 elevators..."

The staff's commentary could not be heard clearly at the end, because the moment they walked out of the VIP channel, the surrounding fans cheered, all chanting for Joanna, she is now known as the lucky **** of the team, and she was present Watching the game, Liverpool will win, and the fans are looking forward to it.

  An Feng looked at the standing and watching fans around him. He was really worried that Liverpool would lose the game. It should be a time when good wishes are shattered...but she still represents good luck at the moment. From the passage to the corridor, the KOP cheered loudly until she came to the auditorium and sat down.

   "It feels like you are paid more than a football star." An Feng sat down beside her.

  Although there are boxes, but the boxes are far away from the stadium, and you can't feel the atmosphere if you are separated. The central location is the golden place to watch football, and An Feng naturally chooses this place. The bodyguards sat down next to each other one by one, and the senior team members also appeared one by one, sitting around them.

   "The tickets for the stadium are sold out." Ai Wen turned his head to An Feng and said loudly.

An Feng glanced at the auditorium that circled the stadium. This effect is indeed many times stronger than that of Anfield Stadium, and more tickets are sold, which will bring more revenue. The team's income is not only advertising sponsorship and The broadcast share and tickets are also an important part.

The triple crown plus the charm of the new stadium has attracted the support of the fans. This time the commercial marketing has been more successful... The game also started with anticipation. Liverpool's state of winning the championship last time has not been lost. Although there were goals in this game, But in the end the Red Army won.

They left the stadium amidst the shouts of the fans, and then visited the underground area of ​​the stadium. In addition to the parking lot, the connotation of a stadium is also concentrated here, including the locker room and meeting room to the office, which can be opened when there is no game For fans to visit.

An Feng also noticed that from the moment he walked in, there were commemorative coins, commemorative shirts and peripheral items related to the players on sale at the entrance. The commercialization was in place, but he learned the essence of Barcelona. Until he empties his wallet and walks out of the stadium.

   Correspondingly, the conditions and equipment here have also improved. Since it is a five-star stadium, no detail can be ignored. After a tour and inspection, the effect was satisfactory, and the players celebrating the victory in the locker room were also very enthusiastic, spraying champagne everywhere.

   Until now, the team has been completely refreshed.

  …

   A few days later, I went to the Midlands of England to celebrate the old lady's birthday.

  The elderly like to be quiet, so they live in Leicestershire, England, which is closer to Birmingham. She bought a large local house and land. Although it cannot be compared with the mansion in Texas, she is more used to it here, maybe it is a kind of feeling of returning to the roots.

  After the convoy arrived, the old lady still insisted on coming to greet her in person.

  The car door was opened, An Feng got out of the car and walked towards the old lady, and shook hands with her with a smile: "Mrs. Sinclair, long time no see, nice to meet you!"

   "Me too, child." The old lady said enthusiastically. Although she was on crutches, her complexion was much better than when they first met.

   "Is this your child?" The old lady found the child who was carried out of the car by Joanna.

   "Yes." An Feng nodded, Joanna stepped forward to say hello to her, the old lady smiled and looked at the child: "What a beautiful girl!"

   "Thank you, ma'am." Joanna said happily.

   "Come in quickly, the weather outside is too bad, pay attention to the children." The old lady omitted the etiquette behind, just because there were some dark clouds over her head.

  This detail is very intimate.

Although the house is not as good as before, her place is quite big, with a spacious front and back yard, and one of the nine guest rooms is specially reserved for An Feng and his wife. It may be because it is inconvenient for them to bring their children, or it may be that their status is sufficient. for the sake. An Feng was not polite, so he just stayed here.

I feel that the old lady likes young things very much. There are two children at home. She cares about Alice and William. Before her birthday, she gave gifts to the children first. William, who can talk, thanked her sweetly. Alice, who couldn't speak yet, shook hands with her.

  The old lady's 80th birthday was not a high-profile one, but there were quite a few people who came on her birthday. From the parking lot to the roadside outside, there were many luxury cars, among which Rolls Royce was the most numerous. Whether it is British or American, the love for this brand is very strong.

   There were many heavyweight guests, and An Feng knew most of them because they were also partners in the consortium. The rest were natives of England with extraordinary backgrounds, and they were all nobles with titles. They also came to congratulate the old lady on her birthday. Due to too many guests, some relatives still went out to live in the hotel.

  Compared with this, An Feng's treatment is virtually higher.
