――――――

Nick stared out the window at the Christmas tree.

Inside the house was a honeycomb coal stove, and a chimney zigzagged along the roof of the shed to the outside.

There was a jug of water sitting on the stove, which was always hot and hot, and every now and then it had to add some water to it. This boiling water can be drunk if you want to drink it, but the main effect is that I am afraid that the fire house will be too dry, and people's mouths and noses will not be able to stand it. This kettle on the stove is basically the equivalent of a humidifier.

The Christmas tree outside the window is quite different from the Christmas tree in the United States. Not that cheap plastic Christmas tree, but a genuine pine tree.

Huaxia Factory and Timber Mill have supply contracts, and Yu Tiecheng said hello to them. People have heard that this is for foreigners to see, and diplomacy is no trivial matter, and this can be regarded as a major matter related to the national system. So, I got a pine tree from the mountains of the northeast with its roots, tied it with a straw rope and transported it.

When Yu Tiecheng saw it, the whole person was stunned, either he didn't explain it, or they didn't understand. It seems that communication cannot be vague just because it looks small. Otherwise, sooner or later you will have to pay a big price. I don't know how the people over there dug this tree out of the frozen ground by the roots.

However, it is true that the transplanting of trees is done in winter according to tradition. Because the winter is cold, the trees are hibernating, and transplantation at this time is less damaging to the plants and it is easier to survive.

In addition to the soil environment being similar to the old place, what needs to be paid attention to in transplantation is to record the original "posture" of the tree. It is usually marked on the trunk of the tree to indicate that this side faces the east, this side is the yang side, and the other side is the yin side.

Fortunately, the winter in Qingtai is not very cold, and the ground is not too frozen, and several workers have been busy for half a morning, and they really planted this Christmas tree.

Then it was dressed up in the pictorial, with a small golden star on the canopy and a lantern made of diodes. Plugging it in does mean something.

"Whew." Yu Sheng came in from outside the door with a roast chicken wrapped in brown paper, put it on the table and said, "You are still looking at the Christmas tree, are you homesick, I heard that you celebrate Christmas there, just like our New Year." I heard that you don't all have to eat roast turkey for Christmas, and you can't find turkey, but this roast chicken is so delicious. My dad specially invited a master to come to the factory to make it, just out of the oven is still steaming, you taste this chicken skin, it is crispy and fragrant. ”

Nick withdrew his eyes and watched as he went out several times for the rest of his life, bringing in a lot of snacks. The sadness on his face has faded a lot.

He is indeed homesick, no matter how good China is and how good Qingtai is, it is a foreign country after all. This Christmas is the first time he has been away from his family since he was a child.

However, although his thoughts were a little chaotic, Nick thought that if he wanted to leave Qingtai and leave the Huaxia factory one day, he would be a little reluctant.

After half a year of getting along, he has gradually fallen in love with the people and things here. Although they look old-fashioned, they seem to be more backward than the most remote continents in the United States. However, they have a vigorous and uplifting heart.

Hard.

These four simple words, in Nick's opinion, are the best description for all the employees of Huaxia Factory.

Even those researchers who have always lacked rules and like freedom go to work on time and don't do anything maverick.

Therefore, the R&D capability of Huaxia Factory is also quite strong in his opinion, because the whole department is like a person, a real whole. Perhaps such a regular army can be seen in a large factory in the United States, but in a small factory like the Huaxia Factory in the United States, there will definitely not be so many precious talents.

Nick listened to the words for the rest of his life, and slightly tore a piece of oily chicken skin. Put it in your mouth, the first feeling is great, it is the fragrance of animal oil, it is fragrant when you chew it a little, and after swallowing it, you still have the unique charm of this Chinese roast chicken in your mouth.

He asked Yu Sheng what this taste was, Yu Sheng tore off a piece and tasted it, and said uncertainly, this should be the taste of rice wine.

The main material should be this, yes, most Chinese know, but what the detailed formula is, then it is not clear. After all, other people's masters rely on this recipe to eat. How can it be easy to let others know what the formula is.

The food is delicious, and if you eat happily, you will be in a good mood.

Nick eats Chinese roast chicken and looks at a Christmas tree with a Chinese twist. Quietly waiting for the call from headquarters.

It can't be too early, though. After all, Huaxia Factory is not the company's main customer, and even whether the boss can remember himself at this time is a question.

Parkinson didn't forget about Nick at the moment, he thought of him, he was thinking about how to get Nick back and arrange for someone he could trust to go to China.

Although Huaxia is not yet Parkinson's Trading's largest customer, its importance has been demonstrated.

That's in the future, though, and Parkinson's doesn't have much time to think about it right now. He's now taking phone call after phone call, dialing out phone call after call.

The phone lines are busy, and the waiting time is much longer than before. Parkinson knows why, and there are so many others like himself who are waiting for news.

Gradually, the sky was a little brighter, from dark blue to light blue, although there was still a moon hanging in the sky, but Mr. Sun had already revealed the aura around him in the east.

At dawn, light spreads the earth.

"Ten million? Are you sure it's 10 million? Parkinson asked again, somewhat hysterically. He put down the phone with a look of ecstasy on his face.

This step is the right one. Playing video games is really profitable.

In the past few hours, at least $5 billion of goods have been sold in shopping malls large and small across the United States. Among them, in addition to traditional products, the most conspicuous is the new high-tech gadget of video games.

The biggest winner was the most aggressive advertisement, "E.T. the Extraterrestrial", which claimed to have invested $30 million, and it was rumored that they had prepared millions of cassettes, but they still didn't sell enough, and they were out of stock in a short time.

Selling millions of copies in a few hours, Parkinson's is unbelievable. He believes that this shortage should be due to a problem with Atari's distribution, and it is not accurate to grasp where the main consumer groups are.

When a product is out of stock somewhere, the manufacturer often exaggerates and says that all shopping malls are out of stock. This is a very common method, which means that if you don't buy it, you won't have it, and if you don't buy it, you really won't have it.

If we continue to develop in our current form. Even if the Atari 2600 version of "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" really had an investment of 30 million US dollars, it could easily pay for itself. Even doubling profits is not a myth.

Parkinson glanced at the sold-out shell versions of the Catch the Ball video game on the detailed sales sheet, and then remembered that it was time to give Nick a call.
