Chapter 255: Pomp
On the streets of Lanfang on February 14, colorful flags were displayed and the sun was in the sky.
February is the coolest time of the year, with temperatures in the mid-20s, which is very suitable for various public events.
Early in the morning, from the Lanfang Port wharf to the Zhaoming Palace, especially the square in front of the Zhaoming Palace, it was crowded with people, and there were more than 100,000 people in the whole process.
The route to welcome relatives was planned and informed in advance. Gu Kun himself did not have any luxurious manor on the main island of Lanfang, at least not on par with Zhaoming Palace, so for the sake of the man's decency, the designer who organized the wedding finally proposed a plan, that is, Gu Kun set off from his yacht "Zhu Sen" and went to Zhaoming Palace to welcome his relatives.
After greeting, you don't have to think about picking up the girl back to the yacht, and you can stay in the cave room in the East Palace of Zhaoming Palace that night. Because he is the county lord who is married, this treatment does not violate the etiquette law, which is equivalent to directly admitting that Gu Kun has entered the East Palace.
There is no population left in the Gu family, so this is the most suitable. The day after the wedding, he drove Zhu leisurely back to the "Zhu Sen", even if he went back to the man's house, and set sail for his honeymoon by the way.
For such a major event, security is of course very important, not purely for pomp.
Along the way, eighty percent of the police force in the country of Lanfang, as well as most of the royal guards and the security guards of the Blackwater Security Company, were all transferred to maintain order - the first two units each had about the size of a company, and the Blackwater Security Company had slightly more people, but it also sent out more than 200 numbers, which were basically all that could be dispatched.
It is still a bit difficult for 400 people to maintain the order of more than 100,000 onlookers, and after calculating the distance of more than 10 kilometers from the dock to the palace, only 20 people can be divided into each side of each kilometer, that is, there is only one person in 50 meters to maintain order, which is obviously a bit stretched - you must know that each of them has to face about one or two hundred onlookers, and this is not counting the people on the square of Zhaoming Palace at the end.
Therefore, the Lan Navy and the Coast Guard, as well as the rotational seafarers of some shipping companies under the names of Gu Kun and Sa Wuyang, also picked out good ones and made cameo appearances to maintain order when they came, all of which added up to barely raise the security force to thousands of people.
In addition, because Gu Kun is an old friend of the Chinese people, the Lan side has also been relatively friendly to China in recent years. In order to fear that Bugou would cause sabotage, there are also some Chinese employees who are stationed at Lanfang Airport on business all year round, and they also come to the construction site to help maintain order, there are about two or three hundred people in total.
These people seem to be more capable and neat, and they are usually responsible for maintaining the radar station of Lan Pong International Airport and providing air traffic control services on the island next door. Lanfang did not have enough professional high-end radar operation talents, so after Huaxia sent the radar station in the form of free assistance, it also sent a full set of after-sales service for maintenance operations.
So far, the Lanfang people have not spent a penny on the salary of the airport air traffic control, and the equipment donor has sent technical support personnel to serve as volunteers for free. Gu Kun has always been at ease with these small advantages.
In addition to other guidance and service personnel, free drink collection points should be set up on the streets for onlookers to cool off, just like when a marathon is held, there should be a stall on the sidelines for people to drink herbal tea. All of them were employed today to serve the onlookers at Gu Kun's wedding. (It's just for the onlookers, not counting the venue)
......
"It's coming, it's definitely on this batch of helicopters, right? It's a German Airbus EC-135!
"No, how could Gu Ye marry the county lord take such a broken helicopter that costs millions of dollars a piece? This plane is here to open the road for inspection. ”
Many people in the crowd were very excited, every time there was a means of transportation coming out of the pier, the crowd would cheer and cheer, the legend was that Gu Kun came, but it turned out that it was just an oolong again and again, and they underestimated Gu Kun's pomp.
From eight o'clock in the morning until nearly ten o'clock, the public can be regarded as having a quasi-letter.
"Another convoy has come down from the dock! It is from the 'Zhu Sen,' and a team of Rolls-Royce sweepers, Mercedes-Benz Unimog armored cars, and Shuangpin Jinmaybach have also arrived! ”
In good conscience, it's not bad to take a helicopter. It's just that the helicopters in this world are luxurious enough and more expensive than Gu Kun's Maybach, and it is really inconvenient to customize, so the pomp and circumstance of ordinary billionaires has become invalid here for Gu Kun.
"I really don't get tired of seeing it a few times, a luxury car of 100 million euros, this is the only one in the world, it's really a blessing to look at it more. ”
"Who's to say it's not, let alone a 100 million euro pure gold car, even if it's not pure gold, it's not sold on the market now. Gu Ye's car, I heard that it is still the only Maybach on the earth-
There is at least a year between the mass production of the Maybach and the design of a prototype car alone. Gu Ye's car was obtained before the Olympics last year, almost during the summer vacation. I heard that according to the official data released by Maybach, the first Maybach officially mass-produced will only roll off the assembly line on May 1 this year, and there are still two and a half months. ”
In the crowd of onlookers, such heated discussions arose one after another. And the latter words were obviously said by the middle class among the common people who knew a little bit of aristocratic style and big-name trends, and the poor man couldn't say it at all.
It's a pity that the vision of the so-called middle class was quickly refreshed and slapped in the face.
Because not long after they swore that "the industry news wrote that the official sale of Maybach will be on May 1st", Gu Kun's Shuangpin Jin Maybach was followed by five more! All of them were Maybachs!
The latter five cars are slightly different from Gu Kun's car, and they obviously dare not go over to the exact same extent as Gu Kun's car.
What's more, the cars are just plain gold-plated two-tone paint, and the color is not the same as solid gold, but with a hint of champagne and rose gold. For the sake of that low-key and restrained nobility, the extreme matte treatment is also made, "smooth but no specular reflection".
Everyone was slightly stunned, and then they were relieved and felt understood: how can there be a Chinese wedding car to welcome relatives, and everything else uses tool carts?
In order to be auspicious, the core team has to have six or eight vehicles, and in addition to that, they have to get camera cars, security vehicles, and tool vehicles.
Therefore, the core of Gu Kun's team is six Maybachs, one double-gold one, and five non-gold-covered ones. All six cars were decorated with flowers and feathers of geese, peacocks, and birds of paradise. As for the Rolls-Royce tool cart on the periphery, the main difference is that it is not decorated with flowers and feathers.
The poor people who were watching on the side of the road retorted to those so-called "insiders" who flaunted their knowledge: "Cut! He also said that there is only one Maybach in the world now, how can Gu Ye say that there are so many of them? I just bragged and slapped my face, I think the so-called dignity of Maybach is not a score in front of Gu Ye, and Gu Ye has to provide whatever German people want! How can there be only one wedding car!"
Middle-class insiders were furious: "This ...... This is certainly not an official sale, it is a sample of the trial flow debugging of the production line! Anyway, there are regulations on the market that are not on sale!"
After a short period of noise, no one went to their hearts, after all, this unprecedented grand occasion is rare to see in a hundred years, who still has time to quarrel, of course, we must try to cherish every second, greedily increase our knowledge, and hate to directly engrave the grand occasion on the eyeballs.
The convoy drove very slowly, and it was also the first time that Gu Kun had driven so slowly in public since he bought a new car for more than half a year, which also gave onlookers a better chance to enjoy themselves.
Anyone who has been married knows that the wedding convoy is sometimes just to get stuck in the auspicious time, especially if the men and women live not far enough, and there are special people who go out to take a detour, so the wedding convoy drives very slowly. Usually, the car passes by with a swish, and the people who eat melons have no chance to look at every detail as much as they do now.
Some old people who are old, but still retain the nationality of Lanfang, and have a bit of history and culture, looked at the pomp in front of them, and they also burst into tears:
"I think that when we just broke free from the hands of the Brittany, it was really poor and white, except for a few teachers, plantation owners and gentry, the rest are almost all fishermen, 17 years ago, 17 years after the founding of the country, it has been able to develop like this, and it is all from the foreigners to earn money, how could we Lanfang people ever think that they could have such a proud life. It is also a great luck for Lan Fang to let Gu Ye rule the country. ”
No matter how slow you drive, there will be an end to onlookers. After a 10-kilometer journey, the convoy drove for 40 minutes, basically squirming forward four or five meters per second, and finally arrived at the square in front of Zhaoming Palace at an auspicious time.
After Gu Kun arrived at the square, he confirmed that there were guards on both sides of the human wall, and then ordered to open the skylight of his double-spelled Golden Maybach, raise the seat, lean out of the skylight, and wave to the square like a military parade: "Hello everyone, everyone has worked hard." ”
The car stopped in front of the red carpet, and a bodyguard came over and pulled the door - the car was very high, two meters long, so the bodyguard didn't have to bend down when he opened the door, because it would be uncomfortable for the doorknob to bend over.
The car door opened, the electric steps next to it were lowered, and a Ming Dynasty ancient style dismount was specially placed on the red carpet - Gu Kun was very kind, after all, modern times are already a civilized society, and he didn't let a slave come over and kneel on the ground with both hands on the ground to let him step on his back and dismount.
Who made him the spiritual leader in the field of abolition in Southeast Asia, he must lead by example, and adhere to the ancient etiquette and law to a certain degree.
He stepped on the dismounted pier in an approachable manner, beckoned to the crowd and slowly paced into the Zhaoming Palace, and the dragon and tiger walked gracefully.
Two minutes later, he appeared with Zhu Youdong on the tower at the main gate of Zhaoming Palace, and the front of the tower had thick bulletproof glass, so that Gu Kun could safely address the people and announce some good news for the whole world to celebrate.
