Chapter 055: Tour of France (Part I)
Pushing the luggage, Li Le and Zhang Fatzi just walked out of the office aggrievedly, when they received a call from Adam, and looked into the distance, Adam was holding the phone, looking around with Ah Hua. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Adam!" Li Le shouted softly at the two and beckoned.
"Where have you two been?" Ah Hua listened to the voice, strolled over, and said with concern.
"Those two idiots......"
Before Zhang Fatzi finished speaking, Li Le stopped Zhang Fatzi and said softly: "Let's get out of the airport first." Then he turned around and smiled and waved his hand to the two policemen behind him, and shouted happily: "Bye-bye~"
"Bye-bye~" The two French policemen also pretended to smile and waved their hands.
As soon as he got out of the airport and got into a taxi, Adam asked, "Mr. Le, what happened?" ”
"I was cheated by those two policemen." Li Le said unhappily.
"How much?" Ah Hua asked hurriedly.
"It's not much, two hundred euros, but I can't swallow this breath." Li Le said angrily, and hurriedly asked again: "Ah Hua, do you know anyone who is engaged in journalism in Europe?" ”
"I know, I have been advertising for major exhibitions in the past few years, and I have met a lot." Ah Hua said.
"I took a video, you see." As he spoke, Li Le turned on his mobile phone and broadcast the video he had just recorded to the three of them.
Fortunately, the video was shot clearly, not only filmed Zhang Fatzi's singing voice and the action of handing out money, but also filmed all the hands and faces of the two policemen collecting money.
"No problem, you send me the video now, and I'll contact a few French TV friends." After speaking, Ah Hua made a phone call, and Li Le also sent the video to Ah Hua.
According to the plan discussed by everyone the day before, today the selected rum used in the competition will be shipped to London by one-day express delivery, and handed over to Ah Hua's colleagues, today I will play in Paris, France, tomorrow I will play in London, England for a day, and the day after tomorrow I will go to London City Hall to participate in the IWSC awards in the afternoon and the banquet in the evening.
After delivering the rum to the courier company, Li Le and the four of them took a taxi, and as soon as they arrived at the door of the booked hotel, they found that the entire street was full of tents of all sizes, and dozens or hundreds of refugees gathered together in twos and threes, surrounded by garbage, and some even directly removed the wooden chairs on both sides of the sidewalk, and were cooking on the fire.
"Lezai, do you want to change hotels?" Zhang Fatzi clutched the suitcase tightly in his hand, for fear of being robbed.
"It should be fine, but there are still police." Li Le said, pointing to three policemen not far away who were standing guard with loaded guns and body armor.
"Let's go to the hotel." Adam was worried, and as soon as he got out of the car, the refugees around him fixed their eyes on him.
Everyone entered the hotel, discussed, or decided to stay in this hotel, first, it was during the New Year's holiday, the hotels in Paris were almost full, and second, everyone only stayed for one day, there should be no chaos.
After entering the hotel room, everyone took a rest, came to a nearby bakery, ate some bread and milk at random, found a car rental company, rented a family car, and let the "European pass" Ahua take everyone to Paris to play around.
One of the closest tourist attractions to the hotel is the Bastille Prison, which used to be used in secondary school history textbooks, but the prison has long since been demolished and is now the Place de la Bastille. As a region of great historical significance to the whole of France, France's previous protest strikes are indispensable to the Place de la Bastille, and this is also a coincidence, everyone just arrived at the Place de la Bastille, that is, they encountered a general strike of bus drivers, fortunately, everyone rented a car, joined in the fun, as the demonstrative drivers shouted a few slogans, Li Le and everyone slipped away.
The car drove northwest for ten minutes, and Ah Hua took everyone to the Louvre, the first of the world's four major museums.
At the entrance of the Louvre is a famous glass pyramid, this art building designed by the Chinese architect I.M. Pei has become the first place for tourists to take photos, during the New Year holiday, tourists from all over the world crowded the Louvre, Li Le and everyone mainly visited the statue of Venus with a broken arm, known as the world's three treasures, the "Mona Lisa" oil painting and the stone sculpture of the goddess of victory, and then left the museum, as for the other collection of as many as 400,000 pieces, just a glance, not in detail.
When tourists come to the imperial capital of China, they naturally want to go to the Forbidden City to have a look, and Li Le and his entourage come to Paris, France, and the place they must go to is naturally the former political center of the Bourbon Dynasty - Versailles.
After leaving the city of Paris, the car drove southwest for nearly half an hour, and Li Le and his party came to the solemn and magnificent Palace of Versailles.
The palace of Versailles is a classicist style building, with neat contours, solemn and majestic, its interior decoration is mainly Baroque style, a few halls are Rococo style, hundreds of hectares of gardens are extremely symmetrical and geometrical, and are known as the representative of rational beauty.
If the exterior of the Palace of Versailles gives a sense of grandeur, then its interior furnishings and decorations are even more artistic, and the interior decoration is extremely luxurious and opulent. More than 500 halls and halls are splendid and extravagant: the interior walls are dominated by carvings, huge paintings and tapestries, and furnishings of the 17th and 18th centuries with superb shapes and exquisite craftsmanship. In addition to decorating the interior with portraits, the interior is also decorated with animal images such as lions, eagles, and unicorns. Some of them are also cast into stair railings made of metal, and some metal fittings are also gilded with marble in various colors, which looks very brilliant. In addition to semi-circular arches, the ceiling also has flat and hemispherical domes, and there are reliefs on the ceiling in addition to paintings. The palace is full of precious artworks from all over the world, and the one that impresses Li Le the most is one
Exquisite vase, because on the introduction frame under the vase, a most familiar English word "CHINA" is clearly engraved.
From the French Bourbon King Louis XIV ordered the construction of the Palace of Versailles in 1660, in nearly 30 years, Louis XIV requisitioned 30,000 workers, architects and engineers, spent more than ten years of state finance, and the Palace of Versailles was not completed until 1688. After nearly 30 years of hard work and money, if the country can recuperate and recuperate, this feudal empire may be able to survive for hundreds of years, but since the construction of the Palace of Versailles, it has become the center of luxury and pleasure of the Bourbon royal family. There were as many as 40,000 princes, princes, grandchildren, nobles, princes and nobles, bishops and their attendants and servants living in the palace, plus nearly 20,000 royal guards, infantry and cavalry guarding the Palace of Versailles nearby, these 60,000 people were like a huge bloodsucking worm, sucking the hearts and blood of every low-level people of the Bourbon Dynasty, making people sleepless and miserable all night.
Water can carry a boat, or it can capsize a boat.
On October 6, 1789, exactly 100 years after the Bourbon royal family, Louis XVI was taken hostage to Paris by the Parisians of the French Revolution, and was later pushed to the guillotine of the new style developed by himself.
With a click, the head fell with the knife, and the Bourbon dynasty, which once crossed the continent and was invincible, also followed Louis XVI and died.
This was the end of the history of the Palace of Versailles as the court of France.
