Chapter 1052 - Unrealistic Worthy of Being Called a Dream!
Gulfstream Aerospace is one of the world's leading manufacturers of luxury and large business jets, and its Gulfstream series of private jets are ideal for the richest and richest of the world.
Qiao Zhi was on a Gulfstream G700 business jet.
Powered by Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines, the new Gulfstream flagship can carry up to 19 people, can fly 13,890 kilometers, has a fuselage length of 33.25 meters, and a wingspan of 31.39 meters, making it the largest aircraft ever produced by Gulfstream.
Its main competitor is the Bombardier Global 7500, which is similar in height and width, as well as plenty of living space in the cabin.
The biggest advantage of this aircraft is the quiet cabin.
The fact that the plane, which was supposed to be delivered in two years, appeared here speaks volumes about the strength of the Wallis family.
When choosing a pilot, Avril did a detailed investigation, including not only qualifications, but also psychiatric evaluations, so as to ensure flight safety.
The sky is clear and cloudless.
When the G700 soared into the sky, Qiao Zhi looked down through the Gulfstream wide-angle window, and suddenly felt a very excited feeling, no wonder many people like to stand on a high place.
A condescending view can be satisfying.
However, Qiao Zhi doesn't like this feeling, he is not afraid of heights, he just doesn't like this sense of volley, not down-to-earth enough, not low-key and steady enough.
In addition to the driver and flight attendant, there are also Avril, Qiao Zhi, Qiu Lian, Tao Liang, Avril's assistant and many bodyguards.
Qiu Curtain is riding this high-end business jet for the first time, and the away layout is more luxurious than the high-end office area, not only with offices, bedrooms, kitchens, but even the lighting and cabin temperature can be controlled by mobile phones.
Qiu Lian has lived a prosperous life since she was a child and has a high vision, but she has to admit that when she came to Vienna this time, her outlook on life and values were completely subverted.
It turns out that the lifestyle and quality of life of the upper class people are really unimaginable.
Looking at Avril up close, both in appearance and temperament, have reached an impeccable level, and she can't help but think in her heart that the princess in Western fairy tales is nothing more than that.
Of course, the only difference is that the princesses in fairy tales are kind and simple, but Avril gives people a sense of distance that is not close to others.
Qiao Zhi drank two glasses of wine and chatted with Avril Lavigne every sentence.
Qiao Zhi asked, "I'm curious, what is the dream of a person like you, who is not lacking in material things at all?"
Avril glanced at Qiao Zhi lightly, "When I was studying, I used to think about winning the Nobel Prize. ”
Qiao Zhi was surprised: "Could it be that you are still proficient in physics and chemistry?"
Avril shook her head, "I want to win the Nobel Peace Prize." ”
Qiao Zhi was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "The gold content of this award is much higher than that of other awards, and it is generally very influential politicians who are eligible for this award." ”
Avril's eyes were deep, "That's right, I originally planned to go into politics, if it weren't for the needs of my family, I might now work in a poor African country, through my own efforts, develop the local economy, improve the overall quality of the people, and change the current situation of poverty and backwardness in that country." ”
It was the first time Avril had mentioned her dreams to someone else.
This idea has always existed in my heart, and there is no suitable person to confide in.
"It's not too late for you to pursue this ideal now, with the power of the Wallis family in control, and with a slight tilt of resources, you can easily accomplish the ideal. Qiao Zhi said.
Avril shook her head, "As the heir of the Wallis family, you can't be so willful, you need to consider the overall interests of the family when dealing with anything, and you can't turn the family's resources into private use." ”
For the first time, Qiao Zhi felt the loss in Avril's tone, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you also have troubles and resentments, I immediately balanced my mind. In fact, the higher you stand, it is not a good thing. When you have too many things, the greater the responsibility on your body, and you will slowly lose the idea of self. ”
Avril was noncommittal and asked, "What is your dream?"
Qiao Zhi smiled faintly, "You guess?"
"Building a restaurant empire?"
"You think so much about me, my dreams are short-term, like now I just want to have a private island of my own. ”
Avril said lightly: "Then you will soon achieve it." ”
Qiao Zhi was silent for a few seconds, trying to think about what his dream was, but found that he was confused.
I remember that when I chatted with Hu Zhanjiao back then, I jokingly said a sentence and mentioned my dream.
It's not appropriate to talk to Avril on this occasion.
Hu Zhanjiao said that his dream is to own a supercar club and run a supercar supermodel company with as many as 100 models.
Qiao Zhi bragged at the time that he wanted to develop a software that could eliminate mosaics with one click, and relying on this software to collect membership fees, not only could he make a fortune, but also make male compatriots all over the world say to himself "Uncensored Godfather, hello!"
How so......
Unrealistic, worthy of being called a dream.
......
After flying for more than four hours, the plane landed at the small airfield on the model island.
There were already people waiting to pick them up, and Avril Lavigne, Qiao Zhi and others got into several Toyota off-road vehicles and drove towards the heart of the island.
Although the island has been renovated for many years, the road infrastructure is not perfect, undulating, and in many places, it has to be crossed by off-road vehicles.
Qiu Curtain suffers from motion sickness, and the bumpy road makes her feel very uncomfortable.
Finally arrived at the destination.
It is a large building, consisting of many buildings, like a European-style castle, the tallest main building has five floors, a nightclub and sauna entertainment area, and some luxurious rooms above.
Qiao Zhi likes the environment here, there are all kinds of tropical plants planted everywhere, although it is not yet developed, there are already guests inside, and there are quite a few.
Some people may wonder why there are so many guests in the heart of the ocean.
It can only be said that the farther away from the mainland, the more you can experience unimaginable happiness.
Avril's assistant introduced on the side: "This island has a secret name in the outside world called Rich Island in One Night!"
Qiu Lian was curious: "Something to do with gambling?"
Avril's assistant bowed, "Yes, people come here every day in the hope of making a fortune through gambling, and although many people lose their fortunes, there are people who have taken risks and become billionaires here. ”
Qiu Lian was puzzled: "The casino is built here, and it is not convenient to come and go at all. ”
Qiao Zhi analyzed on the side: "It is precisely because of this isolated area that it will stimulate people's emotions, and the most exciting thing about gambling is not how much to win or lose, but to gamble and be born after the Jedi." ”
Entering the interior of the building, I soon found that it was expensive, all of which were made of fine wood Canadian logs, and were not painted with any modern chemical paints, and the whole room exuded a unique fragrance of plants and trees.
Standing on the balcony of the room on the fifth floor, you can look at the beautiful scenery of the waves crashing on the cliff and stirring up layers of water, and the slightly drunk sea breeze blows, and the whole person feels refreshed from the inside out.
If you stay here for a long time, your heart will become pure......
After a slight adjustment, Avril called and invited Qiao Zhi to visit the racecourse.
In addition to gambling, the racecourse is also an attractive attraction of the island.
Qiao Zhi and Avril ride in an off-road vehicle and arrive at the racecourse a few kilometers away.
Although Qiao Zhi does not know horse racing, he can also see that this racecourse is built with high quality, it is built according to the specifications of international standard races, not only has a beautiful track, but also a perfect horse training ground, and many people are riding and training.
Avril and Qiao Zhi said, "Pick a horse and run a few laps?"
Qiao Zhi said truthfully: "I don't know how to ride a horse, forget it, don't be ashamed." ”
Avril said, "You can't ride, I can have someone teach you." ”
Qiao Zhi smiled: "Then give it a try! Choose a batch of horses with more docile personalities for me." ”
Avril said angrily: "Everyone else likes fiery horses, because taming fiery horses can bring the thrill of conquest, fiery horses are more irritable and can run faster than gentle horses." ”
Qiao Zhi smiled indifferently, "I don't want to be a professional horse rider, just experience it, and don't compete with others." ”
Avril shook her head with a wry smile, respected his choice, and arranged for someone to find a white horse for Qiao Zhi.
Qiao Zhi fed it some feed first, and found that the horse's personality was really gentle, so he decided to ride it.
Qiao Zhi sat on the back of the horse, the white horse started slowly, and Avril rode a black horse, floating by the side at a gallop.
Although the white horse was surpassed, it was not arrogant or impatient, and slowly accelerated.
However, Avril was soon seen disappearing.
Large European families have the habit of raising and riding horses, and the same is true for Avril.
However, being able to ride a horse does not necessarily make you a good jockey, and it takes a lot of effort and energy to become a qualified rider and achieve the realm of human and horse-to-horse.
A good jockey not only needs to have the right physical fitness, but also has a strong mental quality.
As for the content of training, there are also many things, including when to ride the horse, bumps on the horse's back, and the strength of the legs.
Under the guidance of professional riders, Qiao Zhi learned the correct posture and techniques for riding horses.
Avril could see that Qiao Zhi was a novice, but as a novice, Qiao Zhi's understanding was very high.
Qiao Zhi rode the white horse, in a good mood, although not as fast as the horse king under Avril's seat, but with the sound of horses' hooves, there was a sea breeze blowing in his face, Qiao Zhi felt that his mood was also a lot more relaxed, which is also the reason why many people like to ride horses.
After about forty minutes of riding, Qiao Zhi finally felt a little tired, especially when his legs clamped the horse's belly, which brought a strong sense of soreness.
Normally, it takes three months to learn how to sit skillfully on horseback, six months to learn to step on stirrups, and almost a year to overcome the feeling of soreness in your legs after riding a horse.
"There will be a horse bet later, do you want to experience it?"
"No!" Qiao Zhi decisively refused, "I don't like the feeling of gambling, even if you are proficient in gambling, there are times when you miss, or when you are particularly lucky, there are times when you run out." ”
Avril was used to Qiao Zhi's temper and didn't force it anymore.
Very few people can resist the temptation of gambling, and Qiao Zhi has always grasped it very well in controlling his desires!
