Kitzbühel, the "Pearl of the Alps", is one of Europe's premier summer resorts and a winter skiing paradise, with hundreds of ski slopes forming a huge ski resort complex!

Whether you're a rookie from the equator or an Olympic skiing champion, you'll find something for everyone.

It's January, the golden season for winter skiing, and not only for the average skier, but also for professional competitions: in two days there will be the Valiant downhill competition, where the world's best downhill experts gather.

Many of these experts will also participate in the 16th Olympic Winter Games in Albertville, France, from the 8th to the 23rd of next month, which the Olympians will use as a warm-up event

The two-day World Cup snow polo tournament has already started in Kitzbühel, and two of the venues have also borrowed Zhang Nan's private land.

Snow polo does not require a huge field of 275 meters long and 183 meters wide for ordinary polo, but it does require an open-air snow field that is 100 yards long (about 91.44 meters) and 50 yards wide (about 45.72 meters), preferably on a frozen lake.

However, there is only the "Black Lake" next to Zhang Nan's private land near Kitzbühel, which is the sparkling and colorful Schwartz Lake that I saw from a distance last time.

When I looked at the surface of Schwartzsee, it was as blue as a beautiful turquoise, and the lake had already frozen, but this year it seems that the temperature is not low enough, and it is said that it will take about ten days to freeze the snow and polo field on the ice to ensure 100% insurance.

But the game time waits for no one, and this is called the World Cup, of course, there will not be only one or two games, and multiple venues need to be held at the same time, so that this snow polo World Cup can be held.

This is a mountainous area again, and there are not many flat enough venues, so in the end, the organizing committee had to send someone to temporarily rent two venues from Zhang Nan's side.

No problem, we have a place, no problem to borrow, anyway, the two flat bottoms are also open in winter.

After two years of hard work, Zhang Nan's private land in Kitzbühel has reached a rectangular shape that is almost 3.5 kilometers long and nearly 3 kilometers wide, with several small hills and a few flat lands embedded in the middle, which is more than enough to hold any snow polo tournament.

Although there are two summer lawns that are slightly sloping, the territory is so large that two ordinary polo matches are held at the same time in the summer, which will turn the two large pieces of land into two snow polo fields, and a row of simple stands is temporarily added.

Many of the guys were visiting Austria for the first time, not to mention the small town of Kitzbühel, which was flanked by the 16th and 7th century Alpine style farms, houses and inns.

When they learned how big the owner's private land was here, several of them secretly said that it is not unusual for you to occupy such a large piece of land in the western United States, and a farm of this size is not large, but this is the "pearl of the Alps"!

The old guy who knew a little bit of the inside story told Brother Mark and a few Red Devils that the 4.5 square kilometers of the boss's land to the south were to be opened to the outside world during the snow season.

There is a price to be paid for the sake of territory.

There is a small rental income every year, a few gentle slopes are beginner ski resorts, and some forest trails are junior and intermediate ski trails for tourists, except for the large mountain area on the north side and its surrounding area.

In return, the various taxes that the boss needs to pay for this land a year are pitiful, and it is a win-win situation for individuals and local governments.

The land is so big that when it reaches the location of the small triangular basin more than a kilometer away from the Black Lake, when I sit in the car and see the huge castle on the hill more than 100 meters above the lake, not to mention a group of bodyguards, even Zhang Nan, who has only seen the additional photos in the project progress report before, feels incredible!

It's a masterpiece he came up with on a whimsical mind, and even if it's far from finished, it looks spectacular!

Of course, the castle has not yet been completed, but the infrastructure is almost half completed, and the progress and quality of this project are first-class due to the efforts of the engineering team from Huaxia and the efforts of Western castle construction and restoration experts!

Austrians generally work 40 hours a week, at least two days off, and can also choose a four-day work week, anyway, they will never give you more work, otherwise the expensive overtime pay will give the company boss a headache.

Even at work, you don't expect to be productive.

But the construction workers from Huaxia are different from the technicians, and for this opportunity to work in Austria, Wang Debiao and Jiang Aihua's two major construction companies have negotiated several times!

Go abroad and make a lot of money!

In the summer, I can work 12 hours a day and take one day off a month, and no one complains.

The salary is high, the treatment is good, not to mention that this place is exotic and all kinds of conditions are good, all the staff who come are playing with their lives.

Every morning after 6 o'clock in the morning, it takes an hour to eat and rest at noon, and then work until 7 o'clock in the evening before finishing the meal.

Not only the difference in time, but also the work efficiency of Huaxialai's staff is super high, the efficiency of this unit is not blowing, doing the same work in the case of ensuring quality, can be equivalent to two Austrian workers who are not lazy.

Absolutely no foreign workers!

Whoever dares to be lazy, it's finally here, whoever wants to steal and play tricks, get out of here immediately!

Like some types of work that can work overtime, many people will ask the project manager and construction staff to work overtime at night, but they are ruthlessly refused!

If you do it again, you will have to complain about the citizens of Kitzbühel, more than a kilometer east of the mountain, for example, when the foundation is laid, it cannot be blasted before 8 a.m.

The environmental protection requirements are strict, and there is no way.

There is also a provision for overtime pay, and the part that exceeds 8 hours is going upside down.

The exterior of the castle will not be completed for at least a year, and the interior will have to be completed at least a year after that.

If you add in the interior renovation time, it will take four or five years to complete.

It's useless to be in a hurry, it's useless to be in a hurry!

This will leave the workers in the winter to do some small internal work, outdoor below freezing, can not work.

The scenery in the snow of Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, Germany is stunning, and the white-toned castle blends well into the environment, like a fairy tale.

And the castle on the hill in front of you looks whiter than Neuschwanstein Castle, and bigger than Hohenzollern Castle, which is difficult to describe in words, and can probably only be summed up as "a combination of grandeur and fairy tale fantasy".

Of course, it is white, and the exterior wall has used up tens of thousands of tons of first-class white marble, which has been transported from Gaozhuang Village, Dashiwo Town, Fangshan, Beijing, China, and transferred to a train after getting off the Italian port in the Mediterranean.

The castle has more high-quality granite used up in its foundations and interiors, and the ledger that keeps track of the amount of other building materials is several large chests!

The super project in the imitation of a classical castle, the person in charge of the project was directly told: don't ask me how much it will cost, I only ask how you built it for me!

Not afraid of corruption?

I'm giving a high salary, you try it if you're greedy!

This Zhang Nan doesn't care at all, there is a supervisor, or an old old-fashioned supervisor from Huaxia and a local supervision company with a history of more than 100 years in Austria.

As long as the money is spent on the construction of the castle, as much as it wants.

As for embezzlement...

The Austrians know that the owner of this project is more difficult to provoke than the Italian mafia boss in the south, and as for the guys from Huaxia, as long as you can pass the two passes of Wang Debiao and Jiang Aihua, you will be greedy.

General embezzlement and appropriation are punished by law, and people have an army!

In a few years, it will be a dream castle that will shock the world - someone asked Zhang Nan when the castle began to be built, why he thought of building such a castle with an almost unlimited budget.

"A little gift for my daughter, the princess in the fairy tale has a castle, how can my daughter not have it?"
