905. Painful perceptions
The plane landed at Beijing Airport, which was the first time Zhou Fangyuan used a private jet in a real sense.
The previous time, at most, was a test flight, of course, the real test flight had been carried out a long time ago, but as the owner of the plane, he was on the plane for the first time, so it was regarded as a test flight.
This time, it can be regarded as his real use of the plane, which is used in work and life, and this time it can be regarded as the first flight.
On the day the plane was ready to take off, there were a lot of people in the house, seven aunts and eight aunts, who could come, and they were embarrassed to see the excitement basically came, but fortunately, the hangar where the plane was parked was on the edge of the airport, and there was no need to walk the same channel with the public, otherwise this face would be lost, as if it had never seen the world. But then again, how many people can have private jets these days?
And even if there are private jets, most of them are small planes these days, and domestic flights are no problem, but intercontinental flights are less interesting. And it's not even a little bit worse.
There are too few people who can really afford to buy a big plane and are using it. Especially for the old Zhou family, really, the background is still too shallow, basically it belongs to the nouveau riche level, and it is very rich now, but the family's vision has not quickly followed. Private jets and whatnot, it's still new to everyone, so everyone is willing to come over and open their eyes.
Zhou Fangyuan couldn't say anything, so he could only take everyone on the plane with a smile.
The luxurious decoration in the plane really surprised everyone, especially the kind of precious space, which was originally very precious, and usually every millimeter had to be counted, has now been completely transformed into a huge living area. The space that was supposed to take more than 100 people has now become a suite-like existence, completely serving one person, and that extreme sense of distinction is also one of the reasons why everyone's eyes are wide open.
However, the time of the visit was short after all, and this time the plane flew for the first time, and only a few people boarded the plane with Zhou Fangyuan.
Zhou's father and Zhou's mother, they were invited by Zhou Fangyuan to go to Europe to preside over the acquisition of the winery. It was decided at the end of last year, and now it is ...... It's been a few months, and it's time to wrap it up. Anyway, they are going to board a plane from the capital to Europe anyway, so they should take a private jet by the way.
Then there is Zhou Fangyuan's grandfather, the fourth grandfather, Sister Mingjue, and the third uncle of the fourth grandfather's family.
Maybe in the previous part, some people will feel puzzled, this third uncle and that third uncle, but there is no way, sometimes there is such a problem when the family is older. If it was these people at the beginning, in fact, it would be okay to say, but like the situation of the fourth grandfather, the two branches were not in contact at first, and now they are reconnected. There are also a few children on the fourth grandfather's side, for the younger children, both sides are the same, there are several more elders at once, if you really rank directly according to age, it will be completely messed up.
So the best way is to call each his own, Zhou Fangyuan's third uncle is the "third uncle", and the fourth grandfather's family is also the "third uncle". How can you tell the difference...... If there is only one person present, then of course there is no need to tell. If the two "third uncles" are there, then after shouting the "third uncle", who the general shouter is going to, that is, who is shouting, and the other person can not take care of the situation here.
Anyway, that's how their family came about, and fortunately, there is no mess so far.
Grandpa and the fourth grandfather came together in order to go to the capital to see the fourth grandfather. Although the disease of cerebral infarction is the same everywhere, the capital is close to the capital, the absolute center of many fields such as politics, economy and culture, and there are the best educational and medical resources in the country, and more than half of the top doctors in the country are concentrated in this city. So when you come here to see a doctor, sometimes you really need to find a good way, and sometimes it doesn't matter what the real method is, and many people just ask for peace of mind, just like asking God to worship Buddha.
The same medical order, issued by a top doctor, is easier to get a new person for the patient. With the same diagnosis, patients are definitely more willing to trust the words of top experts.
The same is true for the fourth grandfather, in fact, the strength of the Third Hospital of Beitong is really not bad, the top in the province, and the country is also famous, of course, if it is a general hospital, it is difficult to get out of the province no matter how famous it is, and it still can't be compared with these super powerful hospitals in the capital. The fourth grandfather's diagnosis in the Third Hospital of Beitong is actually not bad, but since the family has this condition, why not bring the old man to the capital to have a look? The third part of the fourth grandfather's family is here to take care of the fourth grandfather, after all, people are old and old, so they need someone to take care of them. Zhou Fangyuan's grandfather is not young himself, so he can only be the third uncle of the fourth grandfather's family.
As for Sister Mingjue, she still has to go to the United States, Cameron's homework hasn't been handed in yet, and she has to continue to study.
After settling his grandfather and his entourage, Zhou Fangyuan prepared to send Yang Mingjue away.
The night before leaving, Yang Mingjue was like crazy, Zhou Fangyuan had worked hard for so long, and he felt a little unbearable. Fortunately, she was just a little girl after all, with limited physical strength, but in the end, Zhou Fangyuan fought back and turned defeat into victory.
......
The first time Zhou Fangyuan met Uncle Lian Jie himself was in his villa in the capital.
This villa has been purchased for a long time, it is one of the first high-end properties purchased by Uncle Lian Jie, although the landmark location is already outside the Fourth Ring Road, but the price is very expensive, and now there are not hundreds of millions. In fact, not only the villas, but also the courtyard houses that Zhou Fangyuan bought before, now the value has begun to rise wildly. The biggest one, it is said that someone has already bid 300 million, but Zhou Fangyuan is a person who is short of money? And even if he is short of money, he will not sell a courtyard house that is so big and so good.
Far away, the first moment he saw Uncle Lian Jie, Zhou Fangyuan's breathing was a little short.
After all, this is his favorite star, an idol he has admired all his life, and now that he finally sees a real person, how can he not be excited.
"Uncle Li, I'm Zhou Fangyuan......"
"Hello Jay Chou. ”
Uncle Lian Jie has round eyes and a very peaceful smile.
"You're going to torment me, you can just call me Xiaoyuan. ”
Zhou Fangyuan hurriedly said.
The two pushed for a long time, but in the end, Uncle Lian Jie obviously had no way to take Zhou Fangyuan, according to his age, he was indeed the same generation as Zhou Fangyuan's father. In fact, the age difference between Dad Zhou and Uncle Li is one year old, so Zhou Fangyuan asked the other party to call him Xiaoyuan, on the one hand, he really respects each other from the bottom of his heart, and on the other hand, it is indeed the embodiment of the excitement when facing idols.
This mood lasted for several minutes before slowly cooling down.
Then the two entered the villa together, sat opposite the living room, a maid brought tea, and the back Yuhuan took a sip lightly, good tea.
"I invited you this time mainly to talk to you about One Foundation. ”
Without further ado, Uncle Lian Jie is a vigorous and resolute personality, and pulling relationships is not what should be done now. What kind of things to do when you want, now that everyone has already had a preliminary intention, there is no need to talk about that nonsense anymore.
However, before describing his plan, it may be to increase credibility, or it may be to let Zhou Fangyuan better understand his thoughts, Uncle Lian Jie still gave a brief introduction to his experience.
"That's still '04......"
Uncle Lian Jie fell into memory.
At that time, Uncle Lian Jie was on vacation in the Maldives, and his family of eight stayed in a hotel near the sea to rest, when the tsunami suddenly struck, the situation was very critical, and the sea water was turbulent. In the battle with the waves, Uncle Lian Jie can be said to show his true character as a hero. He was holding his 4-year-old daughter in one body and paddling with one hand, and after several ups and downs, he almost died.
"Death can enter the process of life at any time, and people should cherish every day of life. ”
On December 26, 2004, the strongest earthquake of magnitude 8.9 in 40 years struck off the northwest coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, which immediately triggered the world's largest tsunami in a century, and the tsunami several meters high quickly rushed to the coast of the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asian countries, leaving Thailand, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India, Maldives and Bangladesh and other countries unable to defend and suffering heavy casualties. The shipwreck not only suffered heavy casualties, but also destroyed the economic construction of Southeast Asian countries. Two-thirds of the Maldivian capital was flooded, 15 people were killed, communications were cut off and airports were closed, while more than 1 million people were displaced by the damage in Sri Lanka, more than 1,600 kilometres from the epicenter, and on the neighbouring southern coast of India.
The staff of our international rescue team described the aftermath of the disaster as follows: In the most prosperous central area of Banda Aceh, many of the wooden houses on both sides of the road have been completely torn to pieces by the tsunami, and the sea water is like a sharp tongue, leaving deep trenches with black mud in the places where they lick it. The Indian Ocean tsunami, a day that has caused disaster to countless families, is also a day that Uncle Lianjie will never forget. Because not only he was taking his wife and two daughters on vacation in the Maldives, but he was also accompanied by Xiang Huaqiang, Chen Lan, the owner of the "China Star" company.
The Maldives is a small country, an island nation in the Indian Ocean, made up of coral reefs, the vast majority of which is less than a meter above sea level, and relies on tourism to support the national economy. On that day, everything was as usual, the sun was shining in the calm morning, the beach was soft, the water was clear, and from the surface of the water you could see blue-patterned fish swimming among the reefs. On the beach, in the shallow water, there are crowds of people who come to spend their vacations, and not far from the sea, there are several boats of local fishermen who netted fish. Everything around seemed so calm that no one was aware of the impending disaster. However, at this moment, the sea water suddenly receded, as if the gods had taken all the sea water away at once. The speedboat ran aground on the hard bottom of the sea, and frightened fish jumped from reef to reef. No one understood why the tide was receding, but no one thought that it was a tsunami.
"It was a real mess......
Speaking of this, Uncle Lian Jie sighed.
According to his description, when he saw that the situation was not good, he picked up his daughter in one hand and dragged the nanny to the hotel with the other, and within a few steps the sea water had already surged up and quickly flooded his neck, and the nanny had already drunk several sips of water. At the moment of life and death, Uncle Lian Jie lifted his daughter above his head with one hand, and half-pushed and half-pulled the nanny to a higher place.
"Because of the constant rush of the waves, several times I almost lost my balance and fell into the water. Usually a few short steps, but when I walked, it seemed as if I had to exert all my strength to finish it. ”
Uncle Lian Jie sighed with embarrassment.
I don't know how long it took, but the three of them finally got out of danger temporarily and came to a higher place. At this time, when I looked back at the place where I was playing, the beach had turned into a vast ocean, and the sea water was still rising upward.
He asked the nanny to run up the hill with his daughter, and he rushed to the hotel to rescue the other daughter. The hotel is at the foot of the hill and the situation is also very critical. By the time he arrived, the sea was pouring into the hall from all directions. The lobby and corridors of the hotel were chaotic, screaming and crying. When Uncle Lianjie arrived at his daughter's room, his assistant had already collected the simple luggage and was waiting at the door, and the daughter was so frightened that she cried because she was scared. Uncle Lian Jie didn't say a word, turned around and picked up his daughter and ran out.
By this time, the sea had already flooded into the room on the second floor, and all the furnishings in the room began to sway, and all small items such as chairs floated.
"There was no way to go, so I had to swim out of the hotel with my assistant and run up the hill. ”
About ten minutes later, Uncle Lian Jie met with the nannies, and when he saw that his two daughters were safe and sound, his heart was finally a little lighter, but he quickly became anxious again, it turned out that his wife had not traveled with them that day, but was in another resort nearby. Jet Li instructed everyone to move to a safe place, while anxiously rummaging through his pockets, ready to find a mobile phone to call. As a result, the phone could not be connected, there was no signal, and the communication tools carried by the assistant were also lost in the panic, all he could do was to protect his two daughters, and then kept praying that his wife would not have an accident.
"You can't imagine that situation at that time...... Uncle Lian Jie closed his eyes, his expression obviously had a trace of pain, "It's terrible, the situation at that time was really terrible." The sea poured into the streets, flowing at a rapid rate, and forming whirlpools near the buildings, rolling up wooden houses and buses. In some places, the water level was almost below the roof, and I saw people clinging to the walls, people trying to step on floating cars to keep themselves from sinking into the water, and people running to the roofs to wait for help. But the current still washed away the people who were holding outside, and I watched as one of the people tried to reach out and grab the person who was washed away, but he himself was swept away by the flood, and in an instant, the person was completely gone.
At that time, I thought, how fragile people are, people who usually seem to be strong, in the face of the forces of nature, are as fragile as a bubble. ”
