Chapter 375: The Wedding
What is Happiness?
Roland couldn't answer that question.
Or, he believes there is no answer to the question.
Because he clearly remembers that in his previous life, he once watched a program called "Walking the Voices of the Grassroots People", and the people interviewed in it gave their most sincere thoughts.
Nobel laureate Mo Yan said in an interview:
"I don't know, I never think about it".
Under repeated questioning by reporters, he said even more bluntly:
"I'm going to say I'm not happy, that's too pretending, isn't it? Can you say that you are not happy just after winning the Nobel Prize? ”
Mr. Jiao, a migrant worker in the city, was asked again, 'Are you happy?' , but also gave a self-protective response:
"My surname is Zeng."
The college student who bought the ticket at the ticket office of the train station said in an interview that while he was "happy", he also encountered the most unfortunate thing, "Interview with you, the team was inserted." ”
Such a response shows the various states of the world, and also reflects the preciousness of happiness.
After all, human desires are not static, and in this case, input and output can never be balanced.
People say you're happy, it's just because they're satisfied, and you're self-
"Give." Kate, who brought the small cake to the table, picked one up with a fork and brought it to Roland's mouth, "Let it cool, it's not hot." ”
Bite into his mouth, mixed with the milky sweetness, made Roland nod, "Yes." ”
"I knew the reason you didn't bake was because it was too much sugar, so I put half of the sugar in it this time." Kate ate ate one herself, and although she thought she had done it successfully, the cake with little flavor still made her frown, but when she took a small sip of the chicken soup, the familiar taste made her laugh.
"By the way, what were you talking about?"
Fang Cai's laughter had already reached the kitchen.
"Your dad is wishing us happiness." Roland said truthfully, "But your mother, we are happy now." ”
"Huh?" Kate tilted her head and asked curiously, "What do you think?" ”
"I think?" Roland turned his head to look at the guy with flour on his hair, he pointed to the dishes on the table, and said, "Doesn't your taste of coconut chicken soup and my taste of cake tell the whole story?" ”
"Hey, hey~" Kate laughed stupidly and clubbed her man with her elbow.
Although the two did not say it explicitly, everything was silent.
…………
With the arrival of the two, the guests also came to the island one after another, and in their words, 'Roland has covered the whole island anyway, and in this case, empty is the biggest waste'.
For such a statement, Roland still agrees, and when he raised his hands in agreement and warmly welcomed these guys who came to cheer, the Olsen family who learned the news also took the initiative to give up the tickets for the second half of the Olympic Games and rushed back from Australia.
Originally, the meaning of the existence of the wedding company is only the setting of the wedding link, and in the case of crazy coins, they can do everything at most, but want to let them welcome guests? That's a fool's dream.
Like Steven Spielberg, who landed on the island a week early and was the first to arrive with his family.
When he got out of the private jet, what was a greeter standing at the airport to greet him?
As the first thigh that Roland hugs, the little couple doesn't come forward, and they can't be reasonable!
But when the young couple received them, Arnold Schwarzenegger also came with his own family.
What to do?
Have Roland and Kate jump out of Steven Spielberg's car and rush back?
Or let Arnold Schwarzenegger and them drive to the hotel on their own?
Regardless of the choice, it is not suitable.
And in this case, Sensei said David and Garnetty, and even the Olsen sisters had to go on the wheel spin.
Not only that, but James, who went to Johns Hopkins University, was also pulled back to help around.
Of course, just a few of them will definitely not be able to take care of everyone.
So, while seeing the crux of the problem, the guests who came first also volunteered to help, saying that they could pick up acquaintances.
After Steven Spielberg wrapped up his old buddy, Arnold Schwarzenegger swallowed old friends, and David Olsen welcomed his business partners one by one, the Carey and Sheraton hotels on Kauai were almost there.
By the time everyone arrived, the time had quietly come to October 5th, the wedding day.
As Roland said, it's really hard to surprise a wedding.
Especially after experiencing the marriage proposal at the Oscars, unless you take the space shuttle to the space station to take the oath, otherwise, even if you are engaged in any helicopter or cruise ship, it doesn't mean much, at most it is enough pomp and circumstance to let others know that you have money, but the problem is that when there are more than 30 guys on the Forbes global rich list, and none of the guests on the scene have a net worth of less than 100 million, they only pursue pomp and circumstance and do not pursue connotation, which is an old hat in the eyes of everyone.
So, when the wedding company found out that all the guys invited by Roland had accepted the invitation, the mind became the most important thing, and after they searched around, the two plans were placed in front of Roland.
The first is to have a wedding on the Napali Coast.
The Napali Coast is one of the most spectacular coastlines in the Hawaiian Islands, with turquoise cliffs reaching into the sky and cascading waterfalls cascading down deep, narrow valleys, offering panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean.
Using heaven and earth as evidence and letting the ocean listen is already the most romantic way a wedding company can think of.
But Roland and Kate passed it anyway.
Because it is too difficult to organize.
There are only three ways to get to the Dhanapali coast.
The first is a two-day hike through five valleys;
The second is to take a kayak and glide along the coastline;
The third is a helicopter, which seems convenient, but if you want to land, you have to land.
Although the two would love to experience this kind of wedding, considering that the guests at the scene have accumulated a net worth of more than 500 billion......
They still don't toss.
The second way is simple but not simple.
The wedding took place at the Kilauea Lighthouse, the northernmost point of the National Wildlife Conservation Center on Kauai.
The fifteen-metre-tall Kilauea Lighthouse was originally built in 1913 to guide passing ships, but in 1970 the lighthouse lights were replaced by more advanced automatic markers.
Although laid off in the field of shipping, it has not been demolished, because it is still the perfect observation point for the northern coastline and the deep blue Pacific Ocean, and not only that, but during the years it has been shining, there are not too many birds nesting in Ita, seagulls, gannets, frigate birds, black-backed albatrosses...... As long as there are birds in Hawaii, there are them here.
It is precisely because it protects life, attracts life, and witnesses life that the two of them decided to take an oath here.
With Roland's ability to wield money, it once illuminated the way home for lost seafarers, and for the two newcomers, this beacon of renewed vitality will guide them to the end of their lives.
Such an idea made the guests who came to watch the ceremony shout romance.
After they sat down in an orderly manner, the voice of emotion sounded quietly.
"He's better than you can play." Bill Gates muttered in the ear of playboy Paul Allen.
"You're not as romantic as him." Paul Allen, who once helped Bill Gates organize the wedding, replied unceremoniously.
…………
"We decided to get married at Connor's Resort in Hawaii." Lorenna Jobs also said to her husband.
"Then a year later, the wedding took place at the Avani Hotel in Yosemite National Park." The old man smiled and hugged each other.
…………
"Why didn't Roland bring Kate to Omaha last year?"
Astrid Monk asked Warren Buffett, "Are you afraid that bringing Kate out will delay work?" ”
"Missing work?" Warren Buffett was stunned for a moment by this question, and only after a few seconds did he lean over with laughter and nod his head, "No! No! No! I think you're thinking I'm working too much! ”
…………
"There are so few people with money and ideas like this now!" Ronald Perelman said with a smile.
"Yes, the point is that he is still young and has the energy to toss, unlike us, who is too lazy to move." Carl Icahn nodded in agreement.
…………
If the business partners give praise, then the people who have known each other for the longest time are about to quarrel.
"Is he really your student? How come I've never seen you romantic? "Kate Capshaw pestled her husband.
"Am I not romantic?" As soon as he heard this, Steven Spielberg suddenly shouted, "We had two weddings!" A Protestantism and a Judaism, isn't that more attentive than his intentions? ”
Kate Capshaw is a Protestant, and in order to take care of her feelings, Steven Spielberg and her directly chose a Protestant church when they got married, but after the marriage, Kate Capshaw converted to Judaism, so they had a new wedding in Judaism.
In this case, Steven Spielberg felt that he had done his best enough, and not only that, but he also gave a negative example on the spot, "Then Roland is still a student of James, do you think James is romantic?" ”
"He doesn't even have a wedding!"
Since these people were already sitting in a row, when James Cameron heard the words of the old man next to him, he blew up on the spot with his hands around him and was about to watch a good show, "Steven, what nonsense are you talking about?" ”
"I obviously had a wedding!"
"It's just not as high-profile as the students you teach!"
However, as soon as these words came out, Steven Spielberg also began to blow his beard and glare, "His high profile was obviously taught by you!" ”
Not only that, but he also gave evidence, "I'm the king of the world!" ”
As soon as he heard this, James Cameron was not to be outdone, and directly threw out the words of the other party when he lost "Jaws", "Fuck The Oscars!" Fuck you! This is both shit! ”
The needlepoint's throwing of the pot at Mai Mang caused the surrounding people to look helpless.
Aren't you just outpaced by your own students in terms of creative planning?
What's so shameful about that?
Is it not good to admit it generously?
Why do you have to fight each other here?
If the two of them knew what the people around them were thinking, they would definitely shake their heads like rattles.
In their opinion, it is okay to show weakness in other aspects, but they can't show weakness in things like love.
Because—
My wife is by my side!
If they take the initiative to admit that the wedding creativity is not as good as Roland's, then it will be over, and the days to come will definitely be restless!
Of course, the child-like fight is just a joke.
When the two newcomers arrived, they immediately launched the skill of Sichuan Opera face change, and stood up and applauded with a smile.
Due to the limited space and incomplete facilities, it is certainly impossible to wait in front of the bishop and the woman to be brought in by her father in a wedding dress, as is the case with a traditional church wedding.
Not only that, but considering that it can move freely in the nature reserve, the tail of a long skirt of a few meters is also saved.
In addition, neither of them is religious, so it is easier for the witnesses to marry.
Not to mention, these guys on the scene, if you catch any one, you can get married!
And when Kate said that she wanted to ask Steven Spielberg, who helped Roland the most, to be a witness, the old man who was still arguing with James Cameron just now showed a smug smile at the other party, and the truck driver responded with annoyance.
Although everyone didn't prepare in advance, this kind of thing is not difficult at all.
Because this kind of wedding vows have never changed.
Explain whose wedding it is to everyone present, let the two newlyweds announce their wedding wishes to everyone present, let the two hold hands and read the vows, and then exchange rings in front of everyone, hug and kiss.
The whole process was over in less than ten minutes, and by the time everyone stood up and applauded, the wedding ceremony had been completed.
Compared to other weddings, they have removed a lot of links.
Not only that, but the corresponding programs were also excluded because the existence of nature reserves could not be spread out.
On the surface, this is simply a simple low-profile wedding, and it doesn't match the high cost at all.
But when Roland unveiled Kate and kissed her, Kate, who was embraced by Roland, was still in tears.
Because for her, what oath or ceremony is actually not important, what matters is people and witnesses.
The man said, 'I will marry you with all my heart, in good times and bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sorrowful, I will love you unreservedly, and I will try to understand you and trust you completely.' We will become one, part of each other, and together we will face everything in life, to share our dreams, and to live our lives as equal and faithful companions. After that, you really won't cheat?
The woman said, 'I marry you with all my heart, whether it is good or bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sorrowful, I will love you unreservedly, I will try to understand you, I will trust you completely, we will become one and be part of each other, we will face everything in life together, share our dreams, and live the rest of our lives as equal and faithful companions.' After that, you really won't worry about the man?
Or, in other words, the witnesses read: 'From now on you will no longer be drenched in cold and wet rain, for you will be a shield from one another.' From now on, you will no longer feel cold, because you will warm each other's hearts. From now on, there will be no more loneliness. From now on, you will still be two people, but only one life. After that, they can really become one?
Are you kidding!
In Kate's view, these vows are just the process of the wedding, and it doesn't move people!
Even the meaning of existence is not as precious as what Roland himself made!
And the most meaningful and happiest thing about the scene was that Roland said in front of everyone-
"Reacquaint, this is my wife, Kate Allen."
That's right, letting the man admit the woman's identity in front of all his relatives and friends is the essence of the wedding!
Because this is the sense of security that a wedding can bring!
