Chapter 159: The Joy of Housewarming

The usually high-profile Ant Company quietly launched Ant Maps on April Fool's Day, and ranked higher in the navigation bar than image and music searches, only after web searches.

From this, it is not difficult to find out how heavy the weight of the electronic map is in Chen Bo's heart.

However, although this product does not have any more special functions, but the data is more detailed, and you can view the address information around your home on the web page with a mouse, which is already a technological innovation, and it is always more convenient and detailed than the paper map at hand.

Of course, no one can run around with a computer, but this is not difficult for the company's technical nerds, for mobile phones that can support Java extensions, a mobile version of the offline map will be developed, the disadvantage is that it cannot be located, and the mobile phone that supports GPS has not yet come out.

After a short stay in Pengcheng for a few days, and after summarizing the past first quarter and all kinds of meetings, he set off for Shanghai.

Although the headquarters of Fa Xing is in Pengcheng, in fact, if he is in China, he will spend most of his time in Shanghai, between the north and south cities, and it is more convenient to go anywhere.

The feeling of coming here is finally a lot easier, and I have also moved from Gubei to the Jiujian Tang villa area not far from Lujiazui.

"Frank, check if there's a safety hazard." The sense of crisis tells him that he can't take anything lightly, and if he gets a bug or a mine, it's not fun. Now it is not the same as it used to be, but it is not the poor boy of the past, some people are pure red eyes and jealousy, and some people really want his life.

No. 7 Jiujian Hall is his private residence, with a three-and-a-half-metre white wall that forms the basic element of the building. Three open and three enter, called nine, adjacent to the waterfront is a stream. Progressive Confucian interior layout, enclosed interior and private garden layout. Corridors, courtyards, eaves, and water pavilions form a Chinese-style courtyard that is "separated but not enclosed, and the perimeter must be missing", while the semi-permeable courtyard walls and fences echo with the garden landscape outside the courtyard to form a small courtyard for hospitality front yards, master backyards, and guest rooms, and the gardens are interconnected and each has its own faction.

If architectural space is a container of emotions and a carrier of ideals, what is to be created here is a cultural atmosphere and aesthetic ideals that the Chinese have been familiar with for thousands of years and unfamiliar for decades. The agricultural civilization was replaced by the industrial civilization, and there was no going back to history, and the Chinese people were tied to the modern express train and galloped all the way.

In the baptism of modernization, the Chinese people's peaceful and indifferent life aesthetics and belief in the unity of nature and man have been challenged and ignored, and the European style is popular, which is the collective self-loss of this era and the most obvious cultural symptom of weakness.

Green bamboo, Daiwa, flowing water does not rot, not only has a distant artistic conception, but also can isolate and hustle and bustle. Since ancient times, the architects here don't know if they have studied feng shui, but they undoubtedly know how to create architectural aesthetics with national cultural heritage.

"I've checked it, it's all right." Frank took the people to carefully inspect it and replied, "Bulletproof armor steel plates have been added to the walls, the basement has been expanded, there are emergency power and water storage equipment, there is nothing to say about safety, and there is also a 24-hour CCTV monitoring system, every entrance and exit is not missed, and there are infrared burglar alarm facilities." ”

The money was not spent in vain, and as Alyssa said, it was enough to withstand ordinary thermal weapons.

There is a garden of 3 acres, although it is much smaller than the estates of the rich in the United States, but it is obviously too luxurious for him alone. Even the more than 300-square-meter house in Gubei has to hire part-time workers to clean it up, and it is impossible for him to do it himself.

The lawn and flowers in the small yard must be regularly mowed and cared for, the swimming pool must also be cleaned, and the daily home needs to be maintained. This villa is available, and it also needs supporting management personnel.

There is even a booth for security personnel at the door, which is easy to say, and it is not a problem for Yang Guotai to pick a few careful guards to come over.

Yes, then you can only have a luxury, and you can also experience the depraved life of the landlord's old wealth. I went around the housekeeping center and hired two nannies who were responsible for cooking and sprinkling, as well as a gardener and handyman.

"Mr. Chen, congratulations on the housewarming!" The first guest didn't expect it to be Ma Yun, this nose is really smart.

"Teacher Ma, why is Yaxing here?" Chen Bo quipped, "Since it's a housewarming, then you have to have a gift, right?" ”

"Haha, I know you're going to have to break the bank!" Ma Yun smiled heartily, and took out a gift box like a trick, "Be careful, don't dislike it." I stayed in Villa 3 and we'll be neighbors from now on. ”

"Nacheng, when I pack up, invite you to drink." Chen Bo didn't say much polite to him, but he didn't know that he also moved here, the two cities are indeed quite close, it is estimated that he came to stay for two days on the weekend, after all, Ali's work is not much easier than that of him in Ant, how can he live in Shanghai often.

After Ma Yun left, he opened the exquisite gift box, and what caught his eye was a 30-centimeter-high ceramic sculpture, which was quite exaggerated and had a sense of modern art, which could be placed in the living room as an ornament.

This also reminded him that the house didn't seem empty, and he didn't have time to go out to shop, so he simply found someone to deliver it.

I picked up my mobile phone and sent a text message to the big guy with interests, and told them directly and concisely, I am moving to a new house, please come to have a meal to celebrate on the weekend, as for sending money, it will be free, just bring me some fun ornaments.

In Lu Province, this custom is called "warm pot", which is a very popular market culture, also known as "warm house", "warm house", "burning kang", "adding hoarding". It means that after the completion of a new house, a housewarming or a brother's separation, relatives and friends should bring gifts to the house to celebrate, and the host should hold a banquet to entertain them.

Generally, they will not give money directly, because of the economic constraints in the old days, they will buy some practical items such as pots and pans that are missing at home as gifts, carry a few eggs, and cut two catties of pork.

In modern times, it is called the joy of housewarming, when a new house is bought in the city, relatives and friends naturally have to congratulate them, and the gifts they give depend on what they lack, but when it comes to a level like him that is not short of money, this son will definitely rise.

A short message went out, so that the person who received it naturally couldn't cry or laugh, others have always implicitly sent out invitations to housewarming, this kid took the initiative to reach out, and he sent money out of your pocket. But no one cares, who still lacks this money, and this kind of occasion is also an opportunity to socialize, they are all ties of interest, of course, the shot can't be too shabby, and as soon as the order was given, he began to collect this so-called congratulatory gift.

Time flies quickly, and it is the weekend in a flash, although the most important meal of the day is noon, almost all human social activities are most preferred in the evening, and the most important banquet is also in the evening, after a busy day, this time period is also the most relaxing.

"Mr. Guo, I haven't seen you for a long time, can I bring a gift?"

"Brother Lu, we met again, didn't you bring your bad girl?"

"Lao Pan, the hairline is high again, do you want me to recommend a shampoo to you? Overlord card, who uses who is bald, is it good?! ”

"Uncle Liu, why are you here too, and you are still bringing such an expensive gift! Liu Qing quickly helped me carry it in and hide it. ”

……

Everyone here is a business figure, there are no strange faces, even in the Internet industry, there are only two people, Ma Yun and Zhu Jun. Chen Tianqiao is not familiar with it, and he is embarrassed to ask for a gift with a clear conscience, and it has not reached such a shameless point.

There are not many people, only more than a dozen people, but the scene is not weak at all. Let's have a glass of red wine first, sit in front of the platform of the water pavilion, brag about it, and reminisce about the eventful years, which is also interesting.

Chen Bo specially invited the star chef and staff from the Shangri-La Hotel to serve these bigwigs, including cigars from Havana, red wine from ChΓ’teau Lafite, and imported fresh fruits.

Even Liu Qing was pulled over by him to help, and of course he couldn't be too petty when he received the gift.

"Big niece, don't be busy, this kid treats you like a coolie." Lu Zhiqiang puffed his stomach and said to Liu Qingdao, who was serving tea and water.

"Yes, yes. Lao Liu, you are also willing to your own girl, and you don't stay by your side to inherit the mantle, but you cheapen this kid. Feng Lun also laughed and teased.

"In my opinion, maybe Mr. Liu wants to find a proud son-in-law." Guo Guangchang put forward a different view.

As soon as these words came out, it made Liu Qing so embarrassed, and the old lady is not unwanted, and it depends on the fact that most of you are uncles who are looking for a good tutor, but I didn't expect it to catch fire.

"You mouths, when it comes to business negotiations, there are few more shrewd than you. But this mandarin duck spectrum can't be messed up. Chen Bo couldn't sit and watch the excitement, and immediately defended, "People have reached the point of talking about marriage, and besides, my temple is not small, give me a few years of hard work is definitely higher than Comrade Lao Liu's net worth, what do you say, Mr. Ma!" Our two payment companies are competitors! ”

I'll go, this is the city gate fire and the pond fish, Ma Yun said with a black line, "That is, the development of third-party payment in the future may surpass any physical bank." ”

There were not one or two people in the investment bank present, and it was obvious that he wanted to provoke a war between the traditional economy and the Internet economy.

Just when the air became a little tense and awkward, someone else came.

This time, it was the uncle and nephew of Rosrock Capital, Steve and Nicholas, who came to the Shanghai Stock Exchange together to handle the delivery of shares in the World Financial Center.

Although it is not to worship the pier, there is still a number of courtesies, after all, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, no matter how horizontal you are, you have to follow the rules to do things.

With the title of the Rockefeller family, it naturally receives a lot of attention, although everyone will have their own thoughts, but today is a serious warm pot banquet, so I will take a look in advance, and other business matters have to be discussed at the table.

Chen Bo threaded the needle in the middle, and the mud, the atmosphere was very active, and even Mr. Ma couldn't help but stand by the river to show off his genes in quyi, and improvised an excerpt from "Red Lantern".

It's good that it's not TMD "Wisdom Fight......
