"Wake up! It's almost there. ”

Opening her sleepy eyes, Tang Jiayi looked at the neatly dressed Atletico Madrid, and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?"

As soon as the words came out, she realized that she had lost her words, but before she could explain, the latter rolled her eyes and asked, "That's how you want to have an accident?"

"You just want to have an accident!" retorted casually, Tang Jiayi sat up and opened the seat belt, and at the same time did not forget to shake the pot, "It's all because this belt is not good, it makes me nervous all the way, and I'm scared of everything." ”

"That's because you fly too little, and you'll get used to sleeping a few more times in the future," Atletico reassured.

Taking the inner and outer clothes handed by the other party and putting them on her body, Tang Jiayi shook her head and said, "Forget it, I don't have a preference for being a trapeze." ”

Pointing out, Atletico said, "Hey, this can't help you! Even if you don't go on vacation or travel, what will you do if the snack merchants are clamoring to go to other places in the future? They seem to like flying and traveling." ”

"They go out with whomever they like, anyway, I don't plan to fly around like this!" Compared to their mothers, the little ones are undoubtedly much more adaptable, the special children's beds do not bother them, and there is only the faint snoring in the room, and they should be able to sleep until the plane lands.

After carefully checking the fixing measures in the room, Tang Jiayi turned around and left, walking to the seating area in front. The plane was about to land, and she had to go over and secure herself in a chair.

As soon as he sat down, Atletico Madrid's smiling voice came to his ears, "How is it?

Tang Jiayi wanted to refute "The plane hasn't landed yet, it's too full and too early", but after thinking about it, it seemed that she was cursing herself, so she had to squeeze out a cold snort in response.

This time I went to South Africa, Atletico Madrid's reason was to witness the record-breaking test of a supersonic car, and then under the banner of opening my eyes to see zebras eating South African spicy noodles, the four snacks were turned on the plane, and she was not asked for her opinion at all, and it was strange that Ms. Tang could be in a good mood.

If she went to the United States, Canada, New Zealand, and Western Europe, she would not have such a big opinion, but South Africa is different.

The country has a lot to see and experience, with African penguins, the Cape of Good Hope, gold mining museums, diamond factories, and multi-ethnic and multicultural cultures, attracting tens of millions of foreigners to Africa's southernmost tip every year.

But underneath the gloom lies a sluggish economic situation, a dismal AIDS pandemic, a perennial unemployment rate of 25 per cent, high levels of robbery and murder, and occasional xenophobic riots. This country of 50 million people has nearly 10 million guns of all kinds, and there are countless gun-related crimes, and the poor public security situation has further forced more "good people" to embark on the road of buying guns for self-defense.

The plane's destination was the largest city in southern Africa. Johannesburg is located in the upper highlands of the Waal River in northeastern South Africa, with a developed economy and a large population, coupled with the gap between rich and poor, it is strange that the crime rate is not high.

When she said this, Zhu Lingling and Pan Yicong, who were traveling with her, couldn't help but get nervous, obviously they were also insecure little women.

"Don't worry, as long as you don't go into the black ghetto of the city at night, your safety is still guaranteed. The well-known attractions and large hotels are the face of the country, and the officials and operators are very concerned about safety, and foreign tourists rarely have accidents as long as they listen to the guide and don't run around. ”

It was Atletico Madrid's eldest nephew Guo Luojun who spoke to comfort the two women, but unfortunately his young face was a little unconvincing, and the three women were still whispering on the side, exchanging fearful messages.

Captain Guo was about to bring up the security company recommended by the embassy to give them courage, and Atletico Madrid preemptively said: "Don't worry, we just stop at the airport to refuel, and then we will fly directly to Kimberley, the capital of the Northern Cape, those criminals can't attack the airport, right? It is the largest airport in Africa, how many people do you need to fight down? How many battlefield guitarists do you need to bring with you with buffs?"

The three women had obviously seen the Libyan battlefield photo, and they all laughed when they heard it. Tang Jiayi smiled and asked: "This is South Africa, not North Africa, how can there be any battlefield guitarists?"

Guo Luojun hurriedly replied: "Little aunt, South Africa and North Africa are all black, and the musical cells are all common!"

As he spoke, the plane was already on course and was descending normally. After Atletico Madrid's uncle and nephew's amusement, Tang Jiayi's mood improved a lot, but their eyes still kept staring at the altimeter reading on the cabin monitor, until the plane stopped on the long runway and there was no longer restraint pressure on their chests, they breathed a long sigh of relief and completely relaxed.

Noticing the nervousness of his wife next to him, Atletico opened his mouth and asked, "Why didn't I find out that you had a fear of flying before?"

Tang Jiayi said while unbuckling her seat belt: "There were no RPGs and surface-to-air missiles below before!"

"Not now, South Africa is also a big African country no matter how you say it, and it hasn't been so unbearable," Atletico said with a laugh.

However, these words did not reach the other party's ears, and Tang Jiayi's figure had already entered the children's room. Pan Yicong and Zhu Lingling glanced at each other and followed as well.

In order to take off a large aircraft such as the Airbus A380 smoothly, Tambo International Airport has a long runway of more than 4,000 meters at the feet of everyone. This allows the Gulfstream Captain to brake better and more gently, improving the comfort of the passengers on board. So when Tang Jiayi and the three of them walked into the cabin, they saw the cute and sweet sleeping appearance of the child, "Hey, it's not just a snack product, it's also a little lazy worm!"

As she spoke, she patted the small bed next to her with her own hands, "Lazy worm get up, get up!"

The little ones were still a little angry to get up, but it took some time for the three girls to calm down and lead them to the front cabin.

"Sister Mingming, where is the boss?" Pan Yicong asked with the "sister of the family" Pan Yiming.

"Talking to the captain in the cockpit,

The boss said let's go down to the airport duty-free shop, and the plane will wait for a while before taking off. ”

"That's right, Yiming, you can come with you," Tang Jiayi waved her little hand and pulled her strong man, and it was just right for each of the four adults to take a child.

For passers-by who don't want to go to the city for shopping, the airport has a wide range of facilities. Not only will you be able to eat and drink coffee and worship, but the shops selling specialty goods will be a must-see when visiting the area, such as cute sweets at Tokyo's Narita Airport, ****** at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport, and zebra leather goods and indigenous accessories at Joburg Tambo Airport.

The black and white zebra skin is too stylish, Tang Jiayi and the others just looked at it and didn't start, they bought a lot of various indigenous items, and when they got on the plane, several people were covered with exaggerated and bright jewelry, and they gained a lot of heads. Even Atletico Madrid was stunned when he saw this scene, at least it looked shocked, and the women felt that the purpose had been achieved, and as soon as they sat down, they began to disassemble the various equipment on their heads and necks.

When everyone was cleaned up and sat down again, the plane took off again, climbed high into the air and flew towards Kimberley in the southwest.

In 1994, South Africa split the province of Pupuli into three capes, eastern, western and northern, and the famous diamond city of Kimberley has since become the capital of the Northern Cape.

In addition to the humid Atlantic coast, most of the Northern Cape is a semi-arid region with hot summers and cold winters, which is sparsely populated and has a slow economic development, but it also has important minerals such as diamonds, silver, copper, iron and aluminum.

But these have nothing to do with Atletico Madrid and others, who came here to see drag racing. The commercial counselor of the South African consulate in Guangzhou, who gave him a pile of materials and hoped to mobilize him to invest here, was probably disappointed.

Of course, there is no long-term investment, and there is still a short-term boom, and with the arrival of the "Bloodhound" (Blahunss), Kimberley Airport is obviously much more lively than usual, and there are domestic and foreign enthusiasts who have come to see the grand scene.

The Bloodhound is an ultra-high-speed test vehicle designed to hit the 1,000-mile-per-hour speed record, designed by Richard Noble and Anygreen, who are well-known names in the field.

The former was a former cloth merchant who built airplanes, and the latter was a former British fighter pilot. In 1997, when Richard's team built the Propulsion (HRSS) was completed, Andy successfully pierced the sound barrier at an instantaneous top speed of 763 mph in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, USA, setting a new record for the top speed of a ground vehicle, which he holds to this day.

After the success, the Propulsion was sent to the museum, Andy went back to fly the fighter, and Richard continued to run his own aircraft company. However, the company's new products did not sell well, and Richard once again had the idea of building a new car, breaking a record, and making big news, so he and the original team officially started a new bloodhound project, this time aiming for 1000 miles (about 1609 kilometers per hour).

The Hakskeenpan desert in the Northern Cape is their chosen record-breaking site. Locals worked with them to build a 12-mile straight running track in the desert, and the Hound team rewarded with a water purification system and mobile base stations, as well as more tourists. As for the participation of Atletico and the Bee Network, it was a complete surprise.

When the plane carrying the Atletico family landed at Kimberley Airport, it was greeted not only by representatives of the own side and the security team who had arrived in advance, but also by Richard and local officials and tribal representatives. Like Mr. Counselor, the latter two also have high hopes for Boss Ma, and their words and deeds are quite earnest.

After a brief but local welcome ceremony, everyone split up into the cars to pick up the people and drove out of the airport in a convoy.

Everyone knows that Boss Ma loves RVs, and what he has prepared for him is a luxury RV, which happens to be pulled all on.

Throwing himself on the table and chair, Atletico sighed: "Richard shouldn't have been involved in that airplane company, he was born to eat this bowl of rice." It's a good thing his plane won't sell, otherwise who knows how long this record will hold?"

"He is powerful, he can be indispensable to our Boss Ma's charcoal in the snow, otherwise this project will still have tosses, and it may drag on until Andy is old and can't drive and run," Tang Jiayi seemed to be touting, but normal people could hear the implication in his words.

Although the goal was highlighted as early as 2010 and a full-size model car was launched, the bloodhound project did not advance as expected. Because the target was set too high, the money was never enough to spend, which led to the original planned challenge time being delayed again and again until this year, and the scheduled driver, Andy Green, is 54 years old this year.

Atletico Madrid only didn't know, and said modestly: "I have won the prize." In fact, even without my patronage, Richard would still be able to find money, which is the pride of the British Empire. What if there's anything wrong with the hounds and the British kids don't like SE (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) anymore?"

The original supersonic used two scrapped and retired Rorosbee K202 (the British prototype of the turbofan 9) engine, the Hound had a greater target speed and greater wind resistance, so it could only seek lighter and stronger military engines, and Richard took a fancy to the Rolls-Royce EJ200 aviation engine used by the Eurofighter Typhoon. However, it is not an easy task to buy an engine for an active fighter, not to mention the high price of 4.5 million pounds, and it will take many years just to wait for the product to be lifted and allowed to be purchased by the private sector.

In order to get the fighter engine, Richard went to Lord Dreyson, the Secretary of State for Science in charge of munitions procurement, and told him that the bloodhound could inspire young people to love science and learning, and finally persuaded the latter, and finally got the Ministry of Defense to allow them to use three Eurofighter used used engines. Anyway, it's just an extreme race car that finishes in a few tens of seconds, and you don't need to care about the little remaining life of the engine.

Since then, the bloodhound project has included British university students and even secondary school students, who have used supercomputers to help improve their aerodynamic shape and body structure, and secondary school students have also participated in the Bloodhound Education Program.

Armed with the turbofan engine, Richard continued to use his mouth cannon prowess to get a rocket engine from Namo for the final stage of the supersonic sprint. In order to satisfy the latter's appetite, he obtained a new 8 engine from the British Jaguar, which was acquired by India's Tata Motors, and used it to pump liquid oxidizer for the rocket engine.

However, the sponsor's money is not so easy to get, Rolls-Roy and Narmo can cope with it with body advertising, but Jaguar has a strong spirit of participation as a car manufacturer. At first, he only helped to modify the 8 engine, and later he had to help test the radio, and then said that he could build a desert support vehicle, which was very high-profile.

As a result, Jaguar Land Rover had a large-scale recall last year and had to cut back on spending and give up sponsorship, which gave Ma Boss Leopard the opportunity to exchange for bees.
