Chapter 460: You Close Your Eyes
Walking north from the main square, through a gravel path, at a turn called "Dog Street", the two saw a bronze statue of a child.
It is different from the majestic Buddha Guanyin in China, and it is also different from the tall bronze statue of horseback riding that I saw a few days ago.
The statue of the child is only about half a meter high, sitting on a marble pedestal about two meters high, with slightly curly hair, a small nose, and a mischievous smile, looking very innocent.
And it's just around the corner of a white building, and it's unusually inconspicuous in front of the many intricate buildings.
There are many tourists who come to visit, but like most men, Lin Dingqiang feels that it is not worth flying thousands of kilometers to see this child.
And Huo Jinwei was different, she stood in front of the bronze statue, poked her head to look, and said excitedly: "Ding Qiang, should we jointly donate a set of clothes for Xiao Lian?"
It is a tradition all over the world to donate clothes to the less, whether it is a country, a group or an individual, after the review and approval, the specific size of the bronze statue will be obtained, as long as it is not used for commercial promotion, it can basically be allowed.
Huaxia has also donated four times, from horse coats to spacesuits, from Tang costumes to panda costumes, and each donation is an opportunity to promote exchanges.
Lin Dingqiang said with a smile: "It's good for you to decide, I have no opinion." ”
Huo Jinwei turned around and proposed, "That's it." I will ask someone to draft a joint application in the name of Rongshan Group and Huo's Foundation and submit it to Brussels City Hall, whether it is successful or not, it can be regarded as a joint effort. ”
Rong Shan, as a new star group that has only established itself in the capital, is naturally not as famous as the Huo Fund, and Huo Jinwei uses all her resources to help Lin Dingqiang broaden his influence at all levels, which shows her deep friendship with Lin Dingqiang.
"Good. Lin Dingqiang replied briefly.
Huo Jinwei saw Lin Dingqiang's lukewarm attitude, and crossed her waist, "I know you're not interested in these, let's go, let's change places." ”
"Where?"
"You men are naturally full of yearning for politics and war, since you have all come to Brussels? Let's go to the headquarters of the European Union and have a look. Huo Jinwei said with a smile: "Although you can't get in?" But you can also feel the atmosphere while standing at the door. ”
As soon as he said this, Lin Dingqiang's eyes lit up? "Let's go? I've wanted to talk about this for a long time. ”
Huo Jinwei stopped Lin Dingqiang, "Huh? Hold your horses. Take a picture for me first!"
After speaking, Huo Jinwei handed over the mobile phone to Lin Dingqiang? Huo Jinwei stood on the edge of the iron fence? In winter, he smiled like a warm sun.
Lin Dingqiang took a few photos in a row, and then asked, "Okay, can you go now?"
Huo Jinwei nodded with satisfaction after watching the finished film? "Not bad? I'll take a picture of you later. ”
The two weave through the streets of Brussels, where the vicissitudes of the city remain as it was hundreds of years ago. The streets are not wide, even a little crowded, but they are lively and interesting.
The architectural style on both sides is mostly Gothic, which makes people feel like they are in the Middle Ages? The bright sunlight shines on the granite-paved square, and the splendor reflected in the stained glass makes the coffee drinkers in the square unusually spiritual.
Huo Jinwei strolling through it? While introducing Lin Dingqiang: "This is the big square, and it is also called the most beautiful square in the world by Hugo. ”
Lin Dingqiang smiled? The scenery in front of you is indeed beautiful, but is it the most beautiful? "Then it must be that this great writer has never been to Huaxia? We don't know how many times more beautiful our Taihedian Square is than here!"
Huo Jinwei glanced at Lin Dingqiang? "Why do you have to raise the bar with me everywhere? I had prepared a very romantic paragraph, but you blocked it back at once. ”
Lin Dingqiang smiled: "I didn't raise the bar! It's just a fact." ”
Since the two were going to the European Union, after crossing the main square, Huo Jinwei stopped a taxi on the side of the road and said goodbye to the old city temporarily.
After a while, Lin Dingqiang looked out of the car window, the original medieval style street was gradually replaced by a simple and bright modern style, and the street gradually became wider, and there were office buildings of different shapes on both sides of the road, plus it was lunch time, and the street flashed from time to time with public officials in suits and leather shoes, or walking and chatting in twos and threes, or a person hurrying with a hamburger in his hand, and the whole area was different from the decay of the old town.
"It's coming. Huo Jinwei seemed to be very familiar with Europe, and explained: "Because I don't have an appointment, I can't take you to the headquarters to visit." However, I found a Chinese restaurant nearby to compensate you. ”
Lin Dingqiang actually wants to be like most tourists, with the mentality of visiting here to see the appearance of the EU headquarters, as for not being able to enter, but in front of the long-lost Chinese food, it looks a little pale.
"It's okay, it's okay. Lin Dingqiang said with a smile: "Just have white rice." ”
After the two got out of the car, they walked a short distance to the entrance of the lobby of the EU headquarters.
A beam of light shone on the blue flag that hung silently, and behind it were rows of national flags hugging each other. The national flags of these countries used to fly high in their respective territories, but since they have been called the European Union, they have enjoyed a rare quiet.
Huo Jinwei looked at Lin Dingqiang's concentrated appearance and knew that this was what Lin Dingqiang was interested in, and she smiled: "Does Chairman Lin still want to be an official?"
Lin Dingqiang waved his hand, "What's so good about being an official, it's uncomfortable." ”
"Then why are you so fascinated?" Huo Jinwei said curiously.
"You close your eyes. ”
"Huh?" Huo Jinwei blinked her eyes and said suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
Lin Dingqiang urged: "You close it first." ”
Huo Jinwei closed her eyes suspiciously, her upturned eyelashes couldn't help but tremble slightly, and her whole heart seemed to be about to pop out of her throat.
"Did you hear that?" asked Lin Dingqiang.
Huo Jinwei closed her eyes and shook her head, "No." ”
This is the contemplation from Kant, the cry of Hugo. Lin Dingqiang said slowly: "It is a rift that the European continent has not been able to heal for thousands of years. It is precisely because of the people on the battlefield of Waterloo who turned their horses on their backs and fell their flags that they exchanged for this blue flag that gathered starlight. ”
Huo Jinwei opened her eyes and said in a daze, "You just want to say this to me?"
Lin Dingqiang nodded seriously, "Yes, don't you think that every union needs to pay the price of blood? So, it's not easy to coexist!"
Huo Jinwei's eyes completely rolled up to the sky, "Okay, okay, you stand over quickly, I'll take you a photo of a tourist to fulfill your wishes." ”
"I'm telling the truth!" Lin Dingqiang said as he walked.
Huo Jinwei stomped her feet in anger, took out her mobile phone and said, "Don't worry, the union of Rongshan and Huo's Foundation will not make you pay the price of blood!"
"That's not what I meant. Lin Dingqiang said helplessly.
"I know!" Huo Jinwei laughed, "I'm going to be funny with you!" But, Ding Qiang, the way you look when you're reasoning is really popular with girls!"
