Chapter 420: State Banquet
Shen Danqing squatted and hugged her daughter gently, kissed her round little face, and then asked her, "Baby, do you miss your father?"
"Think, Dad, I'm not fun alone, when are we going to Beijing?" asked the little guy with a pout.
"Baby, we won't go to Beijing anymore, and Dad may not be able to study anymore. If you don't think it's fun to be alone, go to school! There are a lot of kids your age in school, and you'll soon make friends with them. Shen Danqing said to her daughter seriously, just like talking to an adult.
The little guy was very sensible, and she knew that her father would not be able to study forever, and that sooner or later she would have to go back to Changsha, so she tilted her head and thought for a while and said, "Okay! I'd better go study! It's not fun to be alone." ”
"Baby, where is your mother?" Seeing that her daughter had agreed to study, Shen Danqing smiled, so she asked her again.
"Mom and brother are sleeping," the little guy replied to him as if complaining, and it turned out that she was bored because her mother and brother were sleeping and no one was playing with her.
"Hehe" Seeing his daughter's appearance, Shen Danqing couldn't help laughing, and then he stood up and took his daughter's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go and see, have your mother and brother woken up?" "Anyone who has ever brought a child knows that mothers want to sleep while the child is asleep. Because the baby who has not slept is inseparable from people all the time.
The child couldn't sleep for long, and when Shen Danqing took her daughter to the upstairs room, sure enough, Wang Fang and her son had already gotten up.
"Husband, why did you get off work so early today. Wang Fang asked him suspiciously when he saw him.
"Now I don't need to be so diligent, the company is developing very well, the company is big enough to reach a certain scale, and the boss is diligent, but it is harmful. Let them play freely!" Shen Danqing explained the reason to his wife. In fact, the deeper reason is that all units and enterprises have understood his concept of making products, and every product is impeccable. Technological innovation is also because the underlying technology is sound, there is not much difficulty, and whatever order he gives, they can complete it well and quickly. What else did he have to worry about.
"Is it? Then there's nothing wrong with you not going to work?" Wang Fang asked him happily. Wang Fang, like her daughter, has loneliness, and when she heard her husband say this, what she thought of was that her husband had more time to spend with her.
"In principle, as long as I stay in Changsha, whether I am at home or at work, nothing will happen. Shen Danqing replied to her with a smile.
Just as he was talking to his wife, his son staggered to his feet, hugged his feet, and said in a milky voice: "Bababa" He is not very good at speaking, and can only speak a few simple words, that is, baba and hemp.
When Shen Danqing saw his son's eager eyes, he knew that he wanted him to hug him. So I picked him up. My son is now more than a year old and knows who is his dearest, so he can already let him hold him.
Holding his son, Shen Danqing said one more thing: "Wife, you prepare, in two days, we will go to Beijing to attend the state banquet hosted by the State Council." ”
"What is the state banquet?" Wang Fang asked him incomprehensibly. She hadn't read much, and of course she didn't understand this lofty term.
"On the night of July 1st, the country held a dinner to celebrate Hong Kong's return to the motherland, and all the guests present were representatives of various ethnic groups and industries in China. Shen Danqing proudly explained to his wife.
"Yes, can I go too?" asked Wang Fang happily.
"Of course, please put your name on it? this is a dinner party, you can bring your wife to the dinner. Shen Danqing replied to her with a smile. His eyes were full of a sense of accomplishment, which was a very face-saving thing, his wife was very happy, and he felt that he was honored.
……
Two days passed quickly, and July 1 was a day worth remembering for China, when Hong Kong, which had been ceded out for a hundred years, returned to the embrace of the motherland.
Back on 30 June, the principal leaders of the party and the state arrived at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport by plane, and were greeted by the Shenzhen Municipal Government, commanders of the Hong Kong Garrison, and people from all walks of life.
At the same time, a convoy of concierges gifted by Changsheng Investment Group had been waiting at the airport for a long time, and they had been checked in by train in advance.
After a simple welcome ceremony, the leaders got on the car one after another, and the convoy began to move slowly, followed by fifty elegant and beautiful courtesy motorcycles, followed by ten Tang Dynasty rough man off-road vehicles, ten Tang Dynasty A6, two Tang Dynasty A8, two Zhongnanhai luxury bulletproof station wagons, ten Tang Dynasty M6 business vehicles also followed, and finally ten Tang Dynasty rough men cushioned behind. Escorted by officers and men of the Hong Kong Garrison, the convoy sailed all the way to Hong Kong.
When the motorcade drove into Hong Kong, patriots from all walks of life in Hong Kong waved small national flags to welcome them. Seeing such a luxurious and atmospheric convoy coming, I couldn't help but greatly boost the morale of Hong Kong patriots. This is a symbol of a great power and a manifestation of the country's industrial strength, and every patriot feels glorious.
Every car is as exquisite as a work of art, luxurious, and full of high technology, especially the big Tang character logo in front of the front of the car, which clearly tells them that these luxury cars are domestic cars.
After the publicity and reporting of the Shanghi International Auto Show, the Hong Kong people also know that these cars are produced by a domestic company called Tang Dynasty Automobile, and each one is worth more than one million.
Although Hong Kong is one of the few international metropolises in the world, it does not have the capacity to produce such cars. The motherland is really strong, and as Chinese, they feel honored.
When the motorcade drove into the square of Hong Kong's new convention and exhibition center, British handover representatives, led by Prince Charles and principal officials of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, and Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa, greeted the arrival of China's state leaders.
At this time, the media and the crowd on the side exclaimed in unison. It turned out that when the convoy stopped, the convoy of courtesy motorcycles that opened the road in front also stopped, and the two-wheeled motorcycle could actually stop like a car without falling, so to speak, everyone present was unheard of, no wonder they exclaimed. Then the reporters took pictures and recorded the appearance of the escort on the courtesy motorcycle sitting firmly on the motorcycle. A big Tang car logo can be clearly seen on every photo, and it is obvious that Tang Dynasty cars have new technologies.
All this was seen by the chief, and he also showed a knowing smile on his face, and the Tang Dynasty Automobile Company gave the country a face.
Especially when the troops of the two countries were inspected later, the Chinese leader rode in a brand-new 6.19-meter-long Tang Dynasty A8 bulletproof car, and the British representative rode in Rolls Caiss, one in front of the other, the two cars together, forming a sharp contrast, one modern luxury, one classical elegance, one everywhere showing a sense of science and technology, but the other seems to be the technology of the last century, technology and craftsmanship are obviously a little backward. The moment was faithfully recorded by the reporters present with cameras and camcorders.
Afterwards, some media commented that Britain was lagging behind, and the once sunset empire had become a sunset that was about to set, while China, like the rising sun, was rising at a high speed, leading in all aspects of electronic technology and industrial technology. Although China's overall national strength is not strong for the time being, it will certainly become one of the world's top superpowers in time. The only one that can compete with it is the United States, a superpower that considers itself the world's policeman.
On June 30th, Shen Danqing took Wang Fang and the two from home, and the two children were entrusted to Shen Danqing's parents. The one-year-old son can eat, and he will not be hungry with some milk, of course, crying is inevitable, and both children cry and cry. But the husband and wife gritted their teeth and got into the car and left.
On the way, Wang Fang couldn't help crying, and Shen Danqing had no choice but to comfort her: "Wife, you don't have to worry, the children are taken by their grandparents, and they will be fine." ”
Wang Fang didn't respond, just sobbed in a low voice. As the saying goes, the child is the meat of the mother's heart, she has never left the two children, when leaving, the heart-rending cry of the two children is simply painful to her heart, for a while, how can she not be sad?
This time it was a more formal trip, so he also had a few Tang Dynasty rough men in front and behind, and drove all the way to Huanghua International Airport.
When they arrived at the airport, the locals in Changsha saw his pomp and circumstance, and knew that it was him, so they watched from afar, pointed at him, and discussed with others enthusiastically.
When they arrived in Beijing, Shen Danqing and his wife were picked up by the convoy of the Dynasty Hotel and taken to the hotel, and they did not go to the scholarly family community again, but directly checked into the presidential suite of the hotel.
In the hotel, of course, the two couples were warmly welcomed by the hotel, and Shen Danqing took Wang Fang to have a French dinner.
Because the hotel is very close to the Great Hall of the People, only a few kilometers, Shen Danqing and his wife left the hotel by car at 4 p.m. on July 1.
A state banquet is a formal banquet held by a head of state or government to entertain state guests, other dignitaries, or to entertain people from all walks of life on important festivals. As the name suggests, the hall banquet is the state banquet held in the Great Hall of the People, and the Taiwan banquet is the state banquet held in the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.
The celebration of Hong Kong's return to the motherland was held in the Great Hall of the People. More than 4,000 people attended the state banquet attended by leaders of the CPC Central Committee, representatives of 56 nationalities across the country, people from all walks of life, and delegates in Beijing.
Shen Danqing is a business representative of people from all walks of life, and when the car he was riding in drove into the specially planned parking lot of the Great Hall of the People and got out of the car, he was slapped by reporters squatting there.
Shen Danqing had expected this situation a long time ago, so he kept a relaxed and natural smile on his face, held Wang Fang in a very gentlemanly manner, and entered the banquet hall elegantly and calmly under the leadership of the banquet staff.
