Chapter 430 Arrival in San Francisco
ps: Thank you for the book friend Lao Ma Haha, Luo Bing Di Wei, the lilac cat, the book friend 53746957, and the big man for sparing 5555 monthly passesγγγγγ
Aren't people interested in me next week? Why are you so inactive about monthly passes? Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass!
Xiao Peng sat on the side of the boat and thought about it for a long time, gritted his teeth ruthlessly, and simply raised the big front sail directly ------ fight!
Xiao Peng found two ropes, climbed the foremast by himself, tied the rope to the front end of the foresail crossbar, and grabbed one with both hands to manually control the angle of the foresail, which required huge strength, and Xiao Peng was not worried about this. It's just that the sailboat is very bumpy, and manual control needs to be on the deck, Xiao Peng simply hung four safety ropes on himself, fixed himself next to the winch, and manually operated the sail at full speed!
This is simply a crime, if you simply need to exert force, Xiao Peng can accept it, but the sun is basking and the wind is blowing, and after a while, Xiao Peng feels that he has become a salted fish! This is not the most important thing, after a while, the sky actually began to rain again! The sea is stormy again!
It stands to reason that the big front sail should be lowered at this time, but Xiao Peng gritted his teeth, it was already like this, if you want to fight to the end!
Xiao Peng opened his mouth, swallowed the rain, released his mind to observe the course in the cabin, and walked forward in the rain by himself!
Xiao Peng even forgot how long he had lasted in the heavy rain, and at this time Xiao Peng had completely fallen into a realm of selflessness, with only the front in his eyes!
What is the wind? What is the rain? Lao Tzu is a real man on the sea!
Xiao Peng even sang loudly in the wind and rain------ and it was endless fun to fight with the sky!
Finally, the wind and waves on the sea tended to be flat, and the sun appeared in front of Xiao Peng's eyes again, Xiao Peng finally felt much more relaxed, and after taking a breath, Xiao Peng sat on the ground. I don't know how long I stood in the rain, if it wasn't for the magic power to support him, Xiao Peng would have been unable to withstand it. Now that he has finally persevered until the wind and waves are calm, Xiao Peng is really tired. If it weren't for the four safety ropes to fix himself, Xiao Peng could lie directly on the deck and have a good rest.
Just when Xiao Peng just wanted to rest for a while, several boats appeared on the horizon, and it seemed that there were fishing boats and yachts.
Xiao Peng quickly cheered up, stood up and drove the sailboat directly into the Kinmen Strait, and more and more ships appeared near the 'Guo Chuan'. Not long after, a steel bridge nearly three kilometers long appeared in front of Xiao Peng's eyes.
Seeing this bridge, Xiao Peng grinned, isn't this the Golden Gate Bridge, the ------symbol of San Francisco that has appeared in countless Hollywood movies and has been destroyed countless times?
Xiao Peng opened his hands and shouted, "San Francisco!
Several boats next to him saw Xiao Peng shouting, they all looked at him in surprise, Xiao Peng didn't care about other people's eyes, after untying the three safety ropes, he came to the cockpit, took out the satellite phone, and then ran back to the deck and dialed the satellite phone.
"Hey, is it Mr. Joseph Strauss?" asked Xiao Peng. Josef Strauss, a staff member of the International Sailing Federation in San Francisco, was a witness to Xiao Peng's attempt at the world record.
"It's me, who are you. The voice of an old man came over the phone.
Xiao Peng said: "I am Xiao Peng, Xiao Peng of Huaxia. I'm calling to tell you that I'm in San Francisco and should be crossing the Golden Gate Bridge in another hour. "Although I saw the Golden Gate Bridge, it will take a long time to get there.
"What? This is impossible!" Joseph shouted, "If I am not mistaken, today is the twelfth day of your departure from Huaxia!
"But I've already reached the Jinshan Strait. Xiao Peng said.
Joseph was silent for a while: "I will now send a boat to guide you at the Golden Gate Bridge, and the end point is at Fisherman's Wharf." Because you improved your record too much this time, I suspect that there was cheating on this voyage, and I need your sailing record to verify it before I can admit that you succeeded in the challenge. β
Xiao Peng said indifferently: "I have thought of it a long time ago, so I have a video record of the whole voyage." β
"Oh, Mr. Xiao was very prescient. Joseph said.
"Of course. Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Who asked me to deal with you people who wear colored glasses? As long as the Chinese people do what you can't do, it's all suspicion, our little Chinese girl won the Olympic championship, you say that she uses doping, and we Chinese people successfully challenge the world record, you suspect that there is a problem in the middle, and dealing with people like you, can you do it without making preparations in advance?"
"Mr. Xiao, why do you talk like that?" said Joseph in an unkind tone.
Xiao Peng snorted coldly: "Why can't I talk like that? You are only allowed to question my efforts, my grades, and my cheating, so I am not allowed to question your work attitude?"
"Youγγγγγγγ Joseph was furious.
Xiao Peng didn't get used to his mistakes: "What are you, hurry up and send someone to guide you, otherwise I will go ashore and directly bypass your sail union and announce the news of breaking the world record!"
"This can't be!" shouted Joseph, "We won't admit your record!"
Xiao Peng sneered: "I don't need you to admit it, anyway, I have a video record of the whole process, and when the time comes, after watching me publish the video, it's me or you who will be ashamed!"
"Youγγγγγ Joseph wanted to say something, but Xiao Peng directly interrupted him: "What are you? Either send a boat, or shut up! If you talk nonsense again, when my world record is recognized, the first thing I will do is tell the media that when I broke this world record, I was discriminated against by Joseph Strauss, the head of the International Sailing Federation in San Francisco, Mr. Joseph, that's not your name, right? If so, you must have figured out how to explain it to the media when the time comes!"
When Joseph heard Xiao Peng's words, he was angry, but he could only hold back his temper. If Xiao Peng really has a video record of the whole process and proves that the record is true and valid, then this record will cause a sensation and will greatly improve sailing. If Xiao Peng really treated himself at that time, he would definitely get into trouble.
Thinking of this, Joseph snorted coldly: "I swear to God, if you cheat on this voyage, I will make you unable to hold your head up in front of the world for the rest of your life." β
Xiao Peng smiled: "Are you threatening me? Okay, I don't need you to send someone here, I'll just contact the media and publish the video materials myself." β
When Joseph heard this, he was taken aback: "This is impossible, this is a matter for the International Sailing Federation, you can't bypass us." β
"Then what the hell are you talking about?, hurry up and send a boat to lead the way!" Xiao Peng finished speaking, and hung up the satellite phone directly. Then he took out his mobile phone from the waterproof drawer, took a selfie and posted it to Twitter, with a line of text ------ "Brother Guo Chuan, we conquered the Pacific Ocean together!"

San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf, like the Golden Gate Bridge, is a San Francisco landmark. Originally a port for fishermen to go out to fish, it lost its function as a fishing wharf and was gradually transformed into a unique leisure and cultural area through commercial development, and is one of San Francisco's main tourist attractions. Pier 39, in particular, is a must-see for all visitors to San Francisco.
With the development of time, the 'Fisherman's Wharf', where fishermen gathered, has now become a paradise for food and shopping, and the wharf used to be full of fishing boats, but now it is a large number of private yachts.
Following the navigation boat arranged by Joseph, Xiao Peng finally came to Fisherman's Wharf, and from a distance, many people gathered there on the shore.
Xiao Peng lowered the sails, leaned towards the dock by inertia, dropped the anchor when he was about to reach the dock, and slowly docked.
There were a lot of people gathered on the wharf! When the 'Guo Chuan' docked at the wharf, a huge sound of music suddenly sounded on the pier, and Xiao Peng was stunned when he heard the prelude, isn't this Eminem's "Not Afraid"? Just when Xiao Peng didn't know why, Eminem came over with a microphone and singing.
Xiao Peng smiled, this welcome ceremony was too grand.
After Eminem finished singing, he also hung a wreath around Xiao Peng's neck, and Xiao Peng and Eminem hugged each other warmly: "Eminem, why are you here? It's so grand? No, how did you know that I would arrive today?"
Before Eminem could answer, Xiao Peng heard the shouts of 'Dad' and 'Dad', Xiao Peng looked at it, hey, Gina, Wei Ya, Xiao Yi, and Xiao Ge were all there, and ran to Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng picked up the children: "Why are you here? Who brought you here?"
"My husband, I brought them hereγγγγγ "Yes, don't look at it, Feng Jianting is also here.
Xiao Peng looked at Feng Jianting: "Why are you here? Who else is here?"
Feng Jianting scratched his head and said: "Old man, Uncle Mengzi was originally coming, but something happened on the island, and he couldn't leave, so let me bring the child to meet you." β
"What's going on on the island?" Xiao Peng became nervous when he heard this, Yang Meng wanted to deal with it personally, which showed that things were really not simple.
Feng Jianting said with a smile: "Uncle Mengzi asked me to tell you, don't be nervous, it's just that there is a gang of people to steal fish in the fishing grounds, and they also play high-tech, and he said that this matter was handed over to him." And you put your heart in your belly. β
Xiao Peng nodded, Yang Meng dealt with things, basically he was relieved. He said it was okay, then it should be fine.
Gina also nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry, Uncle Mengzi has already caught a man surnamed Lin, and he said that he would catch a big one by fishing in the water." Wait for the good news when you get back. β
Xiao Peng was completely relieved: "You haven't said yet, how do you know that I will arrive today!"
