Chapter 19: The Night of China
The episode of "Professor Lang" has passed, and a new chapter has been opened, and the first sunshine of 2006 is coming.
Looking at his sleeping wife beside him, Han Hao quietly lifted the corner of the quilt to cover Chen Lingxi's exposed jade shoulders, and as the quilt cover was straightened, he could see a slight bulge under the belly of the person next to the pillow.
The only time that the cave room was willful on the night of the candle, and even if the newlywed two did enough protective measures, it was useless to cast into an iron fact - that is, Chen Lingxi was pregnant.
became an instant hit, and Han Hao felt that he could serve the reputation of a sharpshooter. The sword has not been unsheathed for thirty years, and once it is unsheathed, it will kill people!
Such an accident was greatly unexpected by the whole family, because before getting married, both of them politely told the family that they would have to wait until Chen Lingxi graduated from college to consider the matter, and they were tacitly approved by both parents.
Plans are not as fast as changes, and the sudden increase in life has greatly changed the Han and Chen families.
First of all, Chen Qizhao, who had been gritting his teeth and refusing to let go, finally nodded and no longer adhered to his principles, and agreed to be transferred to Zhehai University to work through the help of his son-in-law.
After staying in Yuzhou for half his life, his family, friends, and work units are used to it, and Chen Qizhao is really reluctant to leave. His wife Yan Xiaochen is very enthusiastic, Jiangzhou, the capital of the coastal province, has better development than Yuzhou in the mainland, especially being able to live in the same city with her daughter, which makes her heart empty after marrying her very keen to move.
Intellectuals always have some backbone, and it can also be said that they are high, and Chen Qizhao feels that he is a little uncomfortable through the transfer of his son-in-law Han Hao. If he really had to rely on his own strength, it would be impossible to achieve it without running for three years and two years. Coupled with the familiar relationship between the circle of friends, he temporarily suppressed the transfer, which made his wife Yan Xiaochen angry with him.
Hearing that Chen Lingxi was pregnant, the two were overjoyed and surprised.
Happily, I want to be a grandparent and usher in a new identity. Surprised, Chen Lingxi reacted strongly in the early stages of pregnancy, she was not used to eating and was easy to vomit, and she did not sleep well, resulting in a lot of weight loss all of a sudden. This made Yan Xiaochen anxious, worried about his daughter at home every day, shouting that he would go to Jiangzhou to cook and take care of her, after all, only the mother knows best what her daughter who has been raised for many years likes to eat.
is just a daughter, and she is so smart and sensible, she must be Chen Qizhao's heart.
In the context of Chen Lingxi's pregnancy, Chen Qizhao finally agreed to transfer to Jiangzhou and moved his family to Jiangzhou to live.
Under the care of Han Hao, Chen Qizhao was soon transferred to Zhehai University to teach with the treatment of "special talent introduction". Although there is no administrative position, there are a lot of academic resources at his disposal, which meets Lao Chen's requirement to only do scientific research. And the mother-in-law Yan Xiaochen simply went through the early retirement procedures, and Chen Lingxi, who was at home to take care of and recuperate.
Han Hao bought a second-hand villa in the community and gave it to his mother-in-law's family to live in, which was only a 5-minute walk from his home, which made Yan Xiaochen very satisfied.
The second change is that her mother Wang Guifen also changed her posture and dragged her wife Han Yongfu from Hushan to Jiangzhou to live.
For Wang Guifen, having a future in the Han family is one of her greatest wishes. Many of the young people in the town who are the same age as Han Hao have graduated from elementary school, which makes Wang Guifen very anxious. Before marriage, I heard that her son and daughter-in-law did not plan to have children so quickly, which made Wang Guifen feel a little unhappy, but she couldn't say anything to change in front of the strong Han Hao.
Unexpectedly, God had eyes, and by chance, his daughter-in-law was successfully pregnant, and Wang Guifen was happy to be able to accumulate merit in the local temple in the name of her son. Especially the master who watched the days for Han Hao's wedding, he received a big red envelope from Wang Guifen to thank him for choosing the auspicious day of the Dawang Han family.
Originally, Wang Guifen wanted to live with her son and daughter-in-law, raising children to prevent old age is a common practice for many old people in the town, and after her daughter Han Yu got married, the two must have lived with Han Hao. However, this idea was stopped by her husband Han Yongfu, saying that the sudden visit of the two old men was afraid that it would affect the mood of her daughter-in-law Chen Lingxi after she became pregnant, and finally decided to let her son Han Hao find a new house nearby for the two to live in. So Han Hao bought a villa for his parents again at a high price in the community, and it was not a problem for him to solve it with money.
Every day, Wang Guifen would come to her son's place for a while, chatting with her mother-in-law, Yan Xiaochen, as long as she saw Chen Lingxi's bulging belly, she would be satisfied.
The last change is that Han Hao obviously got off work on time more, and he was busy for a while after getting married, but after knowing that his wife was pregnant, he adjusted his working hours and tried to accompany Chen Lingxi, who was a little erratic.
I wanted to enjoy more newlywed life, but my college thesis was not finished yet, but I didn't expect to suddenly have another major event in my life, that is, I was pregnant. Intellectually speaking, she felt that she was not ready to be a mother, and she didn't want to increase her status as a mother so quickly. But when Han Hao was told the news of her pregnancy, her husband was very happy, touching her little belly and bowing her head to listen non-stop, which made Chen Lingxi emotionally unwilling to give up the crystallization of their love.
In addition, the parents on both sides were very happy when they found out, and they strongly persuaded her to rest and give birth to the child, Chen Lingxi slowly accepted this fact and waited for the arrival of a new life in anxiety. Fortunately, she was accompanied by her mother during the day, and Han Hao went home with her husband at night, which greatly comforted Chen Lingxi, who had a heavy reaction in the early stages of pregnancy.
Originally, Han Hao was scheduled to attend the "Chinese Night" held in the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum Square, which was postponed to New Year's Day 2006 in order to cooperate with the renovation project of the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum New Square. The Huaxia brand has always given people the impression that it is hovering in low-end fields such as micro-cars and pickup trucks, and it has nothing to do with tall sedans and SUVs. After tonight, the Huaxia brand will become an independent partner on a par with the Chinese brand, and they can step into the sedan and SUV field to show their strengths.
His wife's pregnancy disrupted Han Hao's arrangement, no matter how important his work was, his family was not as important, so he decided that he would not go to the activities he could go to during this time, and he would not go to accompany his wife in Jiangzhou. The psychological growth from a boy to a man may only take one night, and after Han Hao learned that his wife was pregnant, he really felt the responsibility of being the head of a small family. He felt obligated to take care of everyone, including himself, for this uninvited unborn child.
Thanks to the acquisition of Sina.com, a media platform, Han Hao can watch the "Chinese Night" festival thousands of miles away through the Internet at home. Tonight, in addition to announcing the upcoming production new car of the Huaxia brand, there will also be a concept car release.
This is the first of its kind among domestic auto companies, all car companies will only announce concept models at the auto show, and only Zhonghua Group has made an exception this time to choose to make the usual debut.
As a strategic transformation and upgrading conference of the Huaxia brand, Han Hao approved his subordinates' decision to use concept cars to boost morale, which was a shot in the arm for dealers who were eager to wear it.
Although it is rumored that the Huaxia brand is going to upgrade and transform, before the official announcement of the Zhonghua Group, the dealers still can't believe it, after all, there is a mountain of Chinese brands in front of them. If you really allow the expansion of the Huaxia brand, the primary opponent is the brother brand under the same roof.
However, when they received the invitation to "China Night", their worries disappeared, because it was printed with a model covered by red gauze, and it was an SUV when you looked closely.
"Huaxia Night, let's hope that good things will happen soon!"
Such a slogan made the Huaxia dealers feel surging, and the Zhonghua Group heard everyone's voice, and no longer had to envy the customers of the Zhonghua 4S store on the side and earn to death.
Compared with sedans, SUVs have a large market space in China, and the competition is not strong. The Huaxia brand gave priority to the launch of SUVs, which was unanimously praised by many dealers. Some people even said that they will book as many Huaxia SUVs as they produce, even if they underwrite. This is the strong confidence in Zhonghua Group, a car fire, follow the market trend behind it, and not afraid of not making money.
In the renovated Yellow Emperor Mausoleum Square, where the ancestors of Chinese civilization are located, the Huaxia brand will issue a new strategic declaration, enter a new automotive field, and create a full range of product lines.
As the chief designer of the Huaxia brand, Ma Xiaofei presided over the design and development of new products, and the "Beacon Great Wall", which has been a great success in the market, will continue to be the design language of all models.
Although Han Hao did not attend the scene in person, it can be seen from the real-time live broadcast from Sina.com that the atmosphere was very warm, and everyone was full of expectations for the Chinese night.
At this time, his wife Chen Lingxi came in with a cup of hot water and sat next to Han Hao to watch the press conference together.
"Looking at their elated appearance, I was really envious. It's not like me, I don't know what I'm going to do after graduation. Alas, I always feel that the pace of my life has been disrupted by this little elf-"
Snuggling on Han Hao's shoulder, Chen Lingxi clenched the water cup with both hands and said blankly.
"It's okay, you can do whatever you want after you unload, you must know that your husband is one of the most powerful men in China!
The road to the bridge is naturally straight, and it is really a waste of China's educational resources to let you, an outstanding graduate of a famous university, take care of your children at home. ”
Han Hao comforted his wife with understanding, he knew that this was a manifestation of the other party's anxiety about the future. Before he stepped out of society, he had to take on the heavy responsibility of his mother, which was too sudden for Chen Lingxi. It's like a flower in a greenhouse, and suddenly it wants to bloom and bear fruit, and it is easy to bend the rhizome.
"Really? I really don't want to be tied to the role of a housewife before I even step into society. ”
After listening to Han Hao's answer, Chen Lingxi's eyes flashed with a longing light and asked.
"It's true, you are a very special existence in my heart, and I also hope that you can have your own interests and careers, and find a new purpose in life.
You can use this time to plan your future life and see how you can give full play to your strengths as a graduate of Huaqing University. ”
Holding his wife's hand, Han Hao smiled and comforted her.
"Han Hao, you are really a special person, meeting you is the greatest luck in my life!"
Leaning over on Han Hao's chest, Chen Lingxi was greatly moved and said.
......
"Chinese Night" officially entered the theme time, and designer Ma Xiaofei walked on the stage to announce the new products unveiled tonight.
The first to be announced was the second-generation Huaxia pickup, which has only undergone one facelift since its release due to the limited market due to the fact that the pickup truck cannot drive in the city. The products now sold on the market, strictly speaking, belong to the 1.5 generation products, relying on inertia for nearly 6 years, Huaxia pickup truck finally ushered in a facelift.
Both the power and the interior and exterior have been completely upgraded. The new Pangu engine is equipped with a new 1.8-liter engine, and a CVT is also available. The design language of the "Great Wall of Beacons" has a more rugged appearance, and there is a masculine beauty in it, which is in line with its wild tough guy characteristics.
The interior draws on the car technology, adds a lot of humanized design, no longer sticks to the design of the tool car, and responds to the international trend to put the car interior into the car to create a comfortable driving atmosphere for the occupants.
The only drawback is that the Huaxia pickup truck is still BorgWarner's time-sharing four-wheel drive system, which is still in the research stage as a product independently developed by Zhonghua Group, and there is no practical possibility for the time being.
As soon as the second-generation Huaxia pickup came out, it won warm applause from the dealers on the spot.
Just such a masculine shape with Chinese elements is difficult not to make Chinese consumers involuntarily like it, which is an inherent aesthetic in the Chinese nation.
Even representatives of Russian dealers who came from afar praised this new generation of pickups. You must know that pickup trucks are a major sales force in Russia, and cheap Chinese pickup trucks have gradually replaced Japanese pickup trucks and won the trust of locals.
"In the near future, we will launch an independent diesel engine version to make the Huaxia pickup more in line with the needs of Chinese." ”
Ma Xiaofei's words won the applause of the audience again, Huaxia pickup has always relied on gasoline engines, which is different from domestic consumers who are accustomed to diesel engine pickups, and now the model is just making up for this shortcoming.
The high torque and explosive power of the diesel engine, coupled with the low fuel consumption and good economy, have made many consumers who are considering affordable trucks specify the diesel version of the pickup. For this reason, Huaxia Pickup has lost a lot of customers, which also makes Great Wall Pickup follow closely with the advantages of diesel engine products and has been putting pressure on Huaxia Pickup.
After cooperating with Yuchai, the two parties will conduct joint research and development of diesel engines for light vehicles, which will first be applied to Huaxia pickups.
It means that in the field of passenger cars, the popular sedan and SUV models in the market, Zhonghua Group has begun to make up for the shortcomings and provide diesel products to consumers in the future.
The second-generation Huaxia pickup truck is just an appetizer, after Ma Xiaofei officially announced that the Huaxia brand will enter the field of sedans, SUVs and MPVs, the audience suddenly boiled, which is the real meaning of "Huaxia Night".
At the same time, two concept cars draped in red silk entered the middle of the stage, and from the outside, they were an SUV and an MPV, respectively.
The first to unveil is the SUV that everyone has high hopes for, this SUV with some similarities with the Huaxia pickup truck, using the "Beacon Great Wall" hard air intake grille, and the "Tang" rounded shape, the SUV concept car uses more square lines.
This is not a production car, but a concept car, which uses the "Beacon Great Wall" design language adhered to by the Huaxia brand, and will be further improved in the future.
Another MPV, in fact, should be regarded as a replacement for the Huaxia scenery van. It is developed on the basis of Huaxia Hongguang, and Hongguang focuses on household and commercial use at the same time, the new product is in line with the consumption upgrade of the product, mainly used to carry people's homes.
In terms of size, the new MPV is larger and longer than the macro, and the interior seats are more sedan oriented. If Hongguang is an upgraded version of the micro-surface, then the new MPV is an upgraded version of Hongguang, which is transplanted to MPV as a sedan.
These two concept cars fully expose the strategic intention of the Huaxia brand, which is to open up the situation in the blue ocean market such as SUVs and MPVs, so that the Huaxia brand has begun to become an existence that goes hand in hand with the Chinese brand.
