【Chapter 886】 Guests Gather (Ask for Subscription!) )

After some tossing, Xiao Feng and his entourage were finally able to set off smoothly, and the two G650s took off from the 'Dream Airport' one after the other, adjusted their posture in the air, and flew straight to the south.

Powered by two high-powered engines, the G650 can fly smoothly at close to Mach 1 and land at the airport in Louisville three hours later.

Louisville is not the seat of Kentucky's state government, but it is the largest city in Kentucky, ranking it in the top 30 by different rankings. With a long-term population of 1.2 million, Louisville was once the most important port city on the south bank of the Ohio River, and used to be the economic lifeblood of the city with shipping and freight transportation.

Louisville is often considered the southernmost city in the northern United States and the northernmost city in the south, and of course, it is best known for the Kentucky derby, the prelude to the Triple Crown.

Every year on the first Saturday of May, horse racing enthusiasts from the United States and around the world flock to Louisville to witness the world's best Kentucky derby.

Every major competition is the best time for celebrities, sports stars, and entertainment celebrities to make their debuts, and the Kentucky Derby is no exception.

The Bush father and son, President Clinton, His Excellency Kissinger, and the regulars of the Forbes rich list, along with Hollywood's big directors, big stars, and investors, also often appeared at the Kentucky derby.

Every year, the three major television networks in the United States compete fiercely for the rights to broadcast the event, and the broadcast costs are often tens of millions of dollars, and more than 100 million American viewers often watch live broadcasts.

In the face of such huge ratings, those entertainment stars naturally appeared at the Kentucky derby like moths to the fire, as long as they were swept by the camera during the national live broadcast, the commentators said a few more words. Influence is not comparable to one or two ads.

For this reason, the annual Kentucky Derby is luxurious, like an alternative Oscars, and many celebrities, especially female stars, are dressed up to attend and compete for beauty.

Generally speaking. Every year, the Kentucky Derby will attract most of the media in the United States to send an elite team to interview, after all, there are so many celebrities on the scene that rookie reporters can't recognize all of these guests, and may miss some good opportunities.

All in all, for more than a month after the Kentucky derby, the American Triple Crown will take turns and will present a feast of competition and entertainment for American horse racing lovers!

From the week leading up to the race, the American media began to report on everything from the racetrack to the details of the racecourse, including the guests who were likely to attend. It has become the material for the media to report.

Some politicians have also taken advantage of this opportunity to make appearances, trying to deepen their impression among the people, and they are very busy.

In a sense, the Kentucky derby has gone beyond mere horse racing to artificially infuse it with many different meanings.

…………

After May 2nd, more and more private jets arrived at Louisville Airport from all over the United States, and as a country with a highly developed aviation industry, it is not too strange that some celebrities and wealthy people own private jets.

Whether it is Gulfstream, Bombardier business aircraft of various models. Or the shorter range of the helicopter, which soon turned the airport apron into an exhibition hall for private jets.

Many reporters squatted at the airport. Trying to get the first time out of a few heavyweights coming off a private jet is also a feature of the annual Kentucky Derby.

Except for a few super-rich people who don't like to show their heads, the celebrities are eager to inform the media of their arrival time in order to increase their exposure in the media.

For a time, Louisville's not busy airport became the focus of public opinion in the United States, and some real-time footage continued to appear on major websites and TV news programs. It's very lively.

Two 5 Gulfstream G650s landed at Louisville Airport one after the other, which immediately shocked the reporters waiting and knew that heavyweight guests were coming.

After all, the Gulfstream G650 has only been on the market for two years, and the customers who can deliver it for the first time are all wealthy people with extraordinary backgrounds and strong financial resources. Not to mention. The livery on the fuselage of these two G650s is very individual, and the patterns of several cute pets on the 'Nini' and the vague 'Morgan family' family emblem on the 'Anna' speak for themselves.

However, to the disappointment of the reporters, in addition to the Xiao family's clansmen, important members of the Morgan family did not appear. Morgan lent his car to Xiao Feng.

The reporters were not able to interview Xiao Feng and his wife at the airport, and they were picked up by a luxury Audi team through a special channel, which made the reporters quite regretful.

As the first global ambassador of Audi, Xiao Feng naturally received special courtesy from Audi, especially at the moment of some media focus, Audi naturally has its own considerations.

This time, all the vehicles of the Xiao Feng family in Louisville were arranged by Audi in order to increase their exposure in the media. In this way, a luxury fleet consisting of 6 Audi A8s and two Q7s in the front and rear makes people talk about it.

This time, the 'Black Miracle' is the favorite to win the championship, and Xiao Feng's identity as the 'Chinese horse owner' is also of great interest to the American people, coupled with the 'Jinghu Group's large-scale investment in the United States, which makes them full of news. However, no American media has yet been given the opportunity to interview Xiao Feng, which has aroused the pursuit of Xiao Feng by media reporters.

The media reporter who followed the Audi team only saw Xiao Feng and his party staying at the Brown Hotel in the center of the city, which is one of the most famous five-star hotels in Louisville, which was built in 1923 and has a long history of 90 years. The Brown Hotel is just 10 minutes from Louisville Airport and a few minutes' drive from Churchill Racetrack, the venue of the Kentucky derby.

Some reluctant reporters didn't leave there, squatting near the Brown Hotel, trying to capture some precious images.

God rewards hard work, and these persevering reporters have finally gained something.

…………

Xiao Feng arrived in Louisville on the afternoon of May 2, after all, this time the family was old, young, and pregnant. It's always necessary to set aside a little more time.

The competition was held on the afternoon of May 4, local time, so in the past two days, both the old man and Xu Mengyao had to make adjustments in the hotel, and even the doctor had to conduct a corresponding physical examination.

Some people say that the richer a person is, the more afraid of death, and Xiao Feng didn't agree with this sentence before. But now I silently agree.

If it was according to the past, the Xiao family would not be so delicate, but now Xiao Feng is also too nervous about the health of his family, but he was reprimanded by his parents and said that he underestimated everyone.

After settling in, Xiao Feng took Nini, who was clamoring to keep up, to Churchill Racecourse to see the 'Black Miracle', Chen Yang and others who had arrived in Louisville two days ago to adapt to the venue.

Because it was not yet the start time, the racecourse was a little empty, and the reporters were concentrated in the major hotels and airports in the city center. But there wasn't anyone here. This time, 20 top three-year-old thoroughbreds from around the world gathered in Louisville to compete for the Kentucky derby.

"Ah Yang, how is the situation!" With Nini and the 'Black Miracle' playing on the side, Xiao Feng pulled Chen Yang over to understand the status of the preparations.

Since his first game in Austin, Xiao Feng was there for the first time. As a result, he didn't know anything about the preparation of Black Miracle and didn't know the details of winning eight titles.

"Blackie's mood is quite stable. And it seems that it also feels the atmosphere of the racecourse and seems quite excited! Chen Yang pointed and said with a smile: "In the two days of adaptive training, even if it is closed, it can run 2 times of about 10 seconds!" ”

If such data sounds to a layman, it must be confusing. But Xiao Feng is also the owner of the 'Black Miracle', and he still knows a lot about the situation in the Kentucky Derby.

The Kentucky derby is played on dirt at a distance of 1,25 miles (about 2,000 meters), and the average championship time is between 2 minutes and 2 minutes and 8 seconds.

The fact that Black Miracle was able to run around 2 minutes and 10 seconds in training shows that he is in good shape. The level of anticipation for the game is quite high.

As a horse owner who watched the 'Black Miracle' grow step by step, Xiao Feng naturally knew the characteristics of the little guy very well, it was a typical person who went crazy, and the bigger the scene, the more excited he was.

It is foreseeable that as long as nothing else, the champion of this competition is already gone!

"You don't have to be too nervous, just do it as usual!" Xiao Feng patted Chen Yang on the shoulder and comforted him.

In horse racing, the jockey plays a considerable role, and if the jockey is too nervous and does not perform well, even if the horse has no strength, it will be in vain.

However, judging from the situation of these games, years of persistence have also made Chen Yang have more tenacious nerves, and there are very few low-level mistakes in the game. And with the increase in the number of matches, Chen Yang's experience has also risen, which makes Xiao Feng more at ease with him.

"I know, Brother Feng!" Chen Yang nodded vigorously and didn't say anything more.

The winner of the Kentucky derby is worth $1.5 million, which is equivalent to the prize money of the previous eight games, and if he wins, Chen Yang will be able to share the prize money of $120,000! For Chen Yang, who was still getting up early and greedy for a job with a weekly salary of $500 half a year half a year ago, this is undoubtedly a huge amount of money.

According to John's analysis, once the 'Black Miracle' wins the Kentucky derby or even the treble, the annual income will not be less than 20 million US dollars, and Chen Yang, as a competition jockey, will earn millions of US dollars a year, which is not a difficult thing.

Maybe it's because of his big heart, or maybe it's because the 25-year-old Chen Yang has a calmer personality than his peers after years of training, and he didn't show much progress when the big war was approaching.

Xiao Feng and Nini stayed at the racecourse for half an hour, playing with the 'Black Miracle' for a while, and then left, no longer affecting the preparations of Chen Yang and the others.

When I returned to the Brown Hotel, Xiao Qiang, Xiao Shaoyao, Xiao Li, Kane and Harry were just leaving from San Francisco. Duncan and others also arrived at the hotel. With Xiao Feng's light, this time all the members of the Xiao family traveled in Louisville by luxury vehicles provided by Audi, which was much more convenient.

In addition to the people left behind in the United States, including Xiao Dazhi, Xiao Tao's family, and the eldest sister and Xiao Xiao, they also formed a huge tour group to fly to the United States, and they arrived in Los Angeles this afternoon with the special plane of the 'Brilliant Travel Agency', and after a short rest, they will come to Louisville tomorrow.

This time, the people of the Xiao clan gathered in Louisville, in addition to watching the game of "Black Miracle", the focus of the next itinerary will naturally be on the "Dream Ranch", "Miracle Farm" and other industries, including the eldest sister Xiao Yueji and the eldest brother Xiao Jun, many people are coming to the United States for the first time, so naturally they have to have fun for a while.

In order to receive the whole family, Xiao Feng specially wrapped all the two floors of the Brown Hotel, fortunately it was booked in advance, otherwise he would really not be able to grab a place at this time.

In addition to the Xiao clan, many of Xiao Feng's friends also adjusted their work schedules and decided to go to the scene on the day of the game to cheer for the 'Black Miracle', and Xiao Feng naturally wanted to prepare reception work for these guests.

Fortunately, now the Xiao family has a housekeeper Mark. William, it allowed him to take a break from trivial matters and make it easier.

In the evening, Brother Xiaoma's special plane landed at the airport in Louisville, and in addition to Brother Xiaoma and his wife, there were also Xiaoyanzi and his wife, Xiao Ming and baby, etc., who had already made an appointment to form a group to watch the battle. To Xiao Feng's surprise, Yao and his wife also came with their daughter, which was an unexpected surprise.

Mr. and Mrs. Becky will arrive tomorrow morning on a private jet. Morgan had arrived in Louisville two days early and was now living on the Morgan family's estate in the suburbs.

After careful calculation, many of Xiao Feng's friends were very enthusiastic this time, put down the work at hand, and went to the scene to cheer for the 'Black Miracle', which made Xiao Feng quite moved.

Xiao Feng has already decided that when the three competitions are over, at the official opening of the 'Dream Restaurant' and the Triple Crown Celebration Celebration, he must do his best to cook the best food for everyone and give back to them!

As time went on, Louisville International Airport became more and more distinguished guests, all of whom were influential in their respective fields, or who possessed vast wealth enough to influence the functioning of a regional or even global economy.

The reporters were quite excited, just at these guests, this time the event report is quite interesting! (To be continued......)
