  The rest of the time is reserved for Joanna, reminiscing about the past or reminiscing.

An Feng has nothing to do. Life in the English countryside is monotonous. There are few people around. Occasionally, there are a few birdsong. It is most suitable for leaning on the wooden chair in the yard and looking up at the sky. Weather, it's going to be a beautiful day, unfortunately the UK is just rainy.

After sitting for a while, Brandon's nephew Dennis came and sat down beside him. He just came last night. He was in his early twenties, younger than Joanna, and his personality was not like the taciturn Brandon. On the contrary, he is full of curiosity about everything, and wants to get to the bottom of many things.

   No, Dennis asked: "Mr. An, have you always lived in the United States?"

  An Feng glanced at him and shook his head: "No, I just immigrated and lived here for more than a year."

   "So what do you think America is like?" Dennis asked.

  An Feng smiled: "Are you looking forward to it?"

   "Longing?" Dennis listened and shook his head frequently: "No, no, it's just pure curiosity, wanting to understand why their influence is so huge."

An Feng thought for a while and said: "There is freedom and enthusiasm, but there is also a country of darkness and crime. Because of the characteristics of immigrant countries, people from all over the world gather together to bring their own prosperous culture and pursue their dreams. It depends on the individual. Feel, what do you think of America?"

Dennis said: "The classmates and friends around me have a bad impression of the United States. They think that Americans are not only vulgar, uneducated, like to plant flags everywhere, and conceited. They are also very ignorant of the outside world, thinking that the United States is the center of the world, and they are also rich. Mind you, the entire American society is dominated by big business."

  An Feng looked at him: "I heard that even though the United States is the most powerful country in the world, you still only regard France as a respectable opponent?"

Dennis said proudly: "Historically, there have been countless wars for hegemony between Britain and France. The longest war has lasted for more than a hundred years and they are indistinguishable. But my conclusion is too subjective. I quoted a German scholar who said that the United Kingdom treats the United States like the nobles of Hamburg. To the rich peasants from Bavaria'."

Mr. An Feng has seen that the policy of "decent decline" in the UK has always affected its citizens. Judging from the attitude of the people, it is estimated that the title of "America's number one boy" is just the government's wishful thinking and cannot represent these grassroots people. common people. They have a bad impression of America.

  According to Dennis, Europeans are very unimpressed with the attitude of the United States. The government is not equal to public opinion. Take France for example. Although France is a member of NATO, its anti-American sentiment is very serious.

  …

   After a day, continue north.

  Last destination: Finland. From London to Helsinki, Finland, in terms of latitude, it is also the way to move north on the ordinate. Finland is a little far away from the UK, nearly 2,000 kilometers. It is next to Russia. It was once controlled by Imperial Russia in history, and later became an independent republic.

  Finland is a typical Nordic country. Part of the country falls within the Arctic Circle, and the northern territories can occasionally enjoy the grand occasion without night. The further north you go, the easier it is to appreciate the gorgeous and changing "Northern Lights". And in the place of Ronevami, it is the hometown of the legendary Santa Claus.

  Joanna looked at the clouds and mountains outside the porthole, and said, "If it wasn't for the lack of time, we should go to Ear Mountain to find Santa Claus."

  An Feng was afraid of the cold: "Isn't it very close to the North Pole?"

   "It's okay, I won't be cold when I hold you." Joanna said holding his arm.

  An Feng took her into his arms and said with a smile, "I'm so cold right now, please warm me up, little cat."

Joanna leaned on his shoulder and said, "Afraid of the cold? Then let's try the aerobic sauna locally? Did you know that the word 'sauna' comes from Finnish, and there are about two million saunas in Finland?" , for Finland with a population of only five or six million, it is a must-have for almost every household.”

  An Feng nodded: "Okay, but we have to choose the ones that can't wear clothes."

  Joanna curled her lips: "I can't wear it in the first place, okay?"

   "Is there?" An Feng's eyes lit up.

   "I'm talking about a private sauna." Joanna emphasized, "Don't expect to see other Nordic girls for you. If you want to see it, I will cover your eyes."

  An Feng was blindfolded with her hands, unable to laugh or cry.

  …

  After several hours of flight, we landed in Helsinki, the capital of Finland.

As soon as we walked out of the airport, the coolness hit our face. As expected of a country near the North Pole, even at the southernmost tip of the country, the temperature is the same as in winter, about ten degrees Celsius. It is said that it will drop below ten degrees at night, no wonder All of them are so white, they turned out to be frozen out.

Nordic people are the whitest race with the lightest skin, as white as a piece of paper, here are the purest blonde girls, shinier than Joanna's luckily mixed blonde hair, glaring under the sunlight above her head The golden light, coupled with their slim figure, really is a "beautiful frozen person".

An Feng held Joanna's warm little hand, and got into the hotel concierge car that picked them up. This time, he was not picky. The Nordic countries are usually not mainstream tourist countries. Compared with Western European countries such as Britain, France, Germany and Italy, An Feng Much less, and the hotel is not much to choose from.

The local area maintains a relatively complete local style, the city is full of greenery, and there are many lakes along the way. It is said that Finland, known as the "Land of a Thousand Lakes", actually has 180,000 lakes, which is far more than the number of "thousand". It feels as serene and peaceful as Switzerland, but with a more ethereal temperament.

  Maybe it's too cold... An Feng thought to himself. The car came to the hotel in the city center. Although the star rating was not specified, it was still the best room to stay in. The one who specially requested a private sauna room, since Joanna would not show him other Nordic girls, he could only stare at his wife. that's it.

  …

  The next morning, receive guests in the conference room of the hotel on time.

Two tall Nordic white men and a female interpreter with shiny blond hair came. They are both from the Turku shipyard in Finland. Speaking of the Turku shipyard, it is quite famous. It is specialized in cruise ships—notice that it is a cruise ship? yacht. The yacht is too small, the largest is more than 10,000 tons.

Only a cruise ship can satisfy Anfeng’s dream of a sea palace. The two largest cruise ships in the world, "Ocean Charm" and "Ocean Oasis", are built by Turku Shipyard. With a displacement of 225,000 tons, it can be called a sea giant.

   In addition, they have also built many heavyweight cruise ships. It can be said that they have rich experience. If Anfeng wants to build a super cruise ship, Turku Shipyard is naturally the first choice. The other party introduced each other, and the leader was a manager named Karl, who was gentle and gentle, and was responsible for high-end customers.

The English of the female translator is not bad, but the translation-style communication has reduced a lot of pleasantries. An Feng felt that the Finnish they spoke was a bit like Russian, but he just couldn't understand the meaning, and he didn't bother to figure it out later. He got straight to the point: "My request Quite simply, I wanted to build the largest cruise ship in the world."

   Is this simple? Everyone has different ideas, but they all have admiration.

  Carl listened to the translator and asked with a smile: "You hope to exceed the existing cruise ship?"

   "Of course, isn't the largest one 225,000 tons? Is it okay to build a 250,000 tons?" An Feng said, feeling that he was free to buy vegetables from the vegetable market.

  It's a pity that what you want to say is very polite, and the female translator is not easy to mess with.

Carl listened, with a helpless smile on his face: "Sir, we are very grateful for your confidence in our shipyard. The manufacture of large-tonnage cruise ships is not a big problem, but actually it is very difficult to pass the Danish cross-sea bridge. The last time we passed 'Allure of the Seas' came within four centimeters of hitting the bridge."

   "Crash into a bridge?" An Feng looked at Joanna.

Joanna took out her mobile phone, opened Google Earth with a few clicks, zoomed in on the satellite map, and turned the screen to him, saying: "The cruise ship built must pass through Denmark if it wants to leave the Gulf of Finland, and there are bridges across the sea in both places. , you can’t drive a boat and hit it.”

   "Heaven will not help me." An Feng sighed.

But Karl obviously will not let the super big customer go easily: "But sir, the 250,000-ton cruise ship will cause the hull to be too high, but we can shrink it a little bit, and wait until the sea tide ebbs before letting the cruise ship pass the bridge. It is expected to make a A 230,000-ton cruise ship should be sure."
