In late March, the cruise company sent a notice that the world's largest cruise ship "Queen Joanna II", which An Feng ordered more than three years ago, had been completed and was about to go on trial. Originally, it was expected to take two and a half years to build, but due to the onset of the disease, it was delayed for more than three years, and now it has finally been completed.

At present, the cost of this 250,000-ton super cruise ship is 2.6 billion US dollars, which is not as much as An Feng expected, but it seems to be quite ...... Frugal. But after waiting for the notice, he already regretted it a little, and the mooring of this behemoth was a big trouble.

Originally, he planned to take the Mediterranean route on the Queen II, with Sardinia as the center, and circumnavigate the sea. That's a good idea, and the Mediterranean is also a popular route for cruises, but the problem is that the ports of call are not eligible, and only a few ports along the way are eligible.

In the end, he had to compromise with reality, and the Queen II could not sail happily in the Mediterranean, so he decided to send it to the Caribbean, the most popular cruise destination in the world. It is probably one of the few places in the world where a super cruise ship can be berthed smoothly along the way.

Therefore, the world's largest, most luxurious and most royal cruise ship, without Europe, will sail along the Atlantic Ocean to Florida, Ocean Shipping Company will help An Feng manage this cruise ship, which is expected to make its maiden voyage in May, which is the date of Joanna's visit to the United States.

If she could attend the inaugural ceremony and leave some photos of the event, it would be the icing on the cake. The name of the cruise ship is taken from the real queen, and all aspects of the equipment are also built according to the top specifications, so many titles, it is sure to attract tourists from all over the world, and thus make a name for itself.

It's only March, and it's still a while before May.

Traditionally, Joanna continues her travels to various European countries, focusing mainly on developed countries.

As a royal husband. An Feng also accompanied him throughout the process, just like the "intimate" evaluation given by the outside world, the queen must have him every time she has a heavy dà occasion. The gestures of these two people have also been captured by countless cameras, and they can be regarded as a model of happiness among royal couples.

After returning from a trip to Norway in April, they visited the Moncalieri Palace.

The palace is about to be built. More than 10,000 people work day and night on a high-density basis, as early as December has been completed the main construction, after January began to decorate the interior, such as doors and windows, glass and other home decoration work, according to the schedule, is expected to be delivered in August.

It's a miracle of construction speed.

From June last year, when the land was bulldozed, to July, when construction officially began, the main body of the building took just over five months, and according to Eve's calculations. This is equivalent to about six years of normal manual labor, and the architect uses a lot of computer drawings, and even the details of the sculpture are stored in the zài computer.

The 3D printer accurately restores the building, although it is not hand-carved and has the feeling of an assembly line, but it is more special - as the first royal palace made by a 3D printer in the full sense, it is more important than the meaning of continuing the routine of predecessors, so the designer is not picky.

When it is about to be built. The architect invited them to come and visit.

First of all, the royal palace takes into account the future environment. The surrounding area has been renovated, and a wide two-way six-lane road leads to Guò from the entrance, with no towering buildings around it, and a wide view. There is a fountain square in front of the palace, which serves as a public area for celebrations or gatherings. It can accommodate 300,000 people.

The square is flanked by a carriageway, and in front of it is a row of iron fences that stretch to the left and right, and in the center is a magnificent gate, but it is not usually used, and vehicles generally enter through the side doors on both sides. There are guards standing guard at the main entrance. A sentry box is set up nearby for rest and preparation for the changing of the guard.

They took a slow tour of the palace in a battery car, first entering through the main entrance, in front of a row of white and blue buildings, about 50 meters away from the garden in the front yard, this distance is just enough to ensure the quiet of the palace, not disturbed by the outside world, but also to accept the attention of the masses.

Because it is a royal palace, it is used in many ways, and if it is a grand ceremony such as the marriage of a member of the royal family, the enthronement, etc., it is customary to stand on the balcony and wave to the celebratory crowd in the square, and if you want to make a short speech, you must also let the sighted people see who is speaking.

From the outside, the palace is not huge - unlike the super rich that the royal family gave to the outside world, this brightly colored and lively palace is a straight row and turns back at both ends, with a total length of more than 150 meters, a height of 12 meters, and a width of 15 meters, very strict proportions.

Its appearance is not as imposing as the palaces of other countries, but because it is a residence rather than a museum, like the emptiness of the Palace of Versailles, the French king himself does not like it, and it is even more boring to live. Therefore, the color continues the style of Santa Barbara, which is very bright and lively.

The most striking thing on the outside is the golden dome in the center of the building, with the white cross flag and the royal family flag.

However, other regions have reduced the use of local tyrant gold to reflect the royal family as much as possible. The palace is fronted by a gallerie with stone pillars, and in front of the entrance is a fountain. In the center of the pool is a marble sculpture with half-naked women and warriors surrounding the stone pillars, and the water splashes in the water.

Bypassing the fountain, the first floor is mainly used for administrative offices.

The most important is the Press Room, which will be the Queen's administrative area, luxuriously furnished and will be visited by foreign officials. There is a small office inside the chamber...... Well, the palace should not be described as "small", it is for the queen and her assistants.

Behind the press office, there is a sovereign reception hall, where the monarch receives his subjects and listens to the prime minister's report. It is relatively spacious and is generally used for the queen's speech or the monarch's conferment ceremony. The room has a special staircase with a throne on top, which has a king's landing atmosphere.

Continuing inside, there is also a hall room, the layout tends to be the living room, the furniture coffee table is available, and the use of the environment tends to be informal. Inside, there is a slightly smaller living room, or living room, which is furnished in a very homely and casual style, and can be used for family entertainment in general.

There is the concert hall on the right, where spaciousness and luxury are the first elements, and it is also the area with a lot of gilding. Then there is the main banquet hall, which is not commonly used by families, but later state banquets and foreign guest reception banquets are generally held here. It is characterized by luxury, and can accommodate hundreds of people after setting up a long table.

At the back are some exhibition halls of the royal family, which are divided into study rooms and antique collection halls, which are not much for private use, and are used for entertaining foreign guests. Like the previous halls, they are still being renovated in the later stage, and the lighting, central air conditioning, floor heating or ceiling painting must be arranged as soon as possible.

The main hall on the first floor is the upper hall.

Go up the stairs to the second floor. The space here is for a lot of private use, exquisitely furnished and full of life-like atmosphere, the local tyrant gold is only stored on the ornaments, and on the left and right hands is an inner corridor with a vault, about seven meters high. The windows on the second floor are made of stained glass from churches.

The inner corridor has a total of five balconies that protrude outward, with the central balcony being the most spacious, facing the square and the street, and is where members of the royal family occasionally make appearances. Standing there and looking out, the view is wide, and now you can see the occasional vehicle passing in front of the square, but there are still very few people.

The second floor has a total of 25 bedrooms arranged in various styles, concentrated on either side of the end, each with a staircase leading to the first floor. The area leading up the central welcome staircase has been transformed into a study, a meeting room, a dance hall and a family dining room. It will also be a common area for families.

After a tour, the renovation is not yet over, but the effect is good, as a royal palace that will be passed on, not only this monarch, but also future monarchs. Therefore, the design concept is advanced, and the circuit system is also carefully designed to ensure that it can be used for a long time and can be easily replaced.

Taking into account both living and face, it is already impeccable. And it won't stay long, Joanna doesn't plan to be a queen for the rest of her life, she will abdicate when the time is right, and the abdicated queen will definitely not live in the palace. Located by the sea, the mansion she is building is her ideal home.

In terms of the back garden, the atmosphere of the royal family is continued, and the face project is emphasized, so the design of the garden is very particular, the garden is symmetrical, a flat avenue in the center, paved with sand and gravel, and there is a square pool hundreds of meters long in front, with roads and gardens on both sides.

The back garden tends to be used for ornamental purposes, the appearance is beautiful, and the actual use is because of the huge sake, which requires a car, which is actually more suitable for a smaller one, but because it is a royal palace, the designer considers a lot. The only compromise was the stables, which allowed the ownership of stables and the possibility of riding horses in normal times.

As for other entertainment, swimming pools and the like, no.

An Feng said: "I guess we have to put more surprises in San Elermo. ”

"The royal palace, which is also an administrative office, must not be modified according to personal wishes, after all, it will welcome many guests, including foreign guests." Joanna says she knows this, "so I insisted on designing a family-style house, and that's the case." ”

"Or do you have a vision." An Feng looked back at the palace, "I've lived here for a long time, and I need to change my taste and go to a place with a more vibrant atmosphere." ”

"Agreed." Joanna said, "Also, the place is no longer called a 'house.'" ”

"Why?"

Joanna explains: "Since we started building there, the residents have given it the name 'Palazzo-Giovanna'. ”

"Giovanna Palace." An Feng understood this Italian, "Who is so hearted that they specially changed our unnamed house into a palace?" ”

"I don't know." Joanna shook her head.

An Feng opened the car door for her, sat in the car with her, and said: "From now on, I will have to build a variety of trees around to protect the privacy of our stars." ”

"I agree." Joanna nodded, "But it's not a small place, I've seen it a few times, and there are beaches and oceans, so it's very comfortable for leisure." ”

"We'll retire there from now on." An Feng said.

"Looking forward to it." She smiled, "However, what are you going to do with the rest of the machine?" ”

"Try not to let them sit idle during the big development time." "Oh, last time an official told me that there are fewer residents in the Nuoro area in the north, and our private land is also there, with flat land and slightly bullying mountains, and a lot of wildlife. ”

"Hunting Palace?" She said.

"That's a good word!" An Feng nodded, "Build a recreational hunting palace there, where more than 20,000 acres of idle land are ours." (To be continued......)
