Silicon Valley is the world's largest and earliest base for the semiconductor industry.

It is a small valley located south of San Francisco in northern California in the Western Hemisphere, relying on the famous university clusters led by Stanford and Berkeley, Google, Facebook, Apple, Oracle......

Almost all the world's well-known computer and Internet high-tech enterprises were born here.

Arrival at the airport is 10 a.m. local time.

The first time he went abroad, in order to avoid accidents, Jiang Chen was low-key and honest, just like a child who traveled with his elders, he was next to Luo Qing throughout the whole process, and he didn't talk much.

It wasn't until the hotel settled down that Luo Qing was let go, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Suffocate me, anyway, there's nothing here, and the air is not sweeter than the domestic one." ”

"Who said that?"

"It's obviously more uncomfortable than in China, okay, the human body smell here is heavy, and it can smoke mosquitoes!"

Luo Qing pulled down her mask, and she also looked like she was living for the rest of her life.

After speaking, he touched Jiang Chen's head again, and said with a smile: "The baby is so good, come, auntie hug." ”

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes: "You just think, don't take a bath, if you don't want to wash me." ”

"Hug first, hurry up, otherwise my aunt won't take you out to play!" Luo Qing opened her arms and stared, clearly not intending to let Jiang Chen go.

Helpless, Jiang Chen had no choice but to hug: "It's okay now, right?" ”

"Well, it's really good, go wash it, and my aunt will ask a friend about the situation here."

Open is a suite.

After saying that, after a brief tidying up, Jiang Chen went into the bathroom to take a bath, and Luo Qing contacted a friend here outside to order food by the way.

When Jiang Chen came out after washing, Luo Qing asked about it, said that he would eat first when he came to something, and then got up and went to the bathroom.

Jiang Chen sat down on the sofa in the living room.

At present, there is no international roaming service in China, so there is no way to send text messages to report safety.

In terms of time, it is 16 hours faster in China than here, 11 o'clock in the morning here, and it is already 3 o'clock in the morning in China, and it is not appropriate to make a phone call.

I can only be in a daze and think about what I need to do next.

During this period, the hotel's meals were also delivered, Western food, steak, foie gras, vegetable salad, a creamy mushroom soup.

The main dish is two servings of beef tenderloin noodles with black peppers, in addition, there is a bottle of raffite, a small box of caviar.

Luo Qing came out after washing and wiping his hair, and when she saw him sitting in a daze, she couldn't help but smile and said, "What do you think, didn't you say that you should eat first, why don't you move?" ”

"No, it's just a little confused all of a sudden." Jiang Chen rubbed his face, then came back to his senses and began to pour wine into the goblet.

Luo Qing sat down, shook her hair, her face was flushed when she had just come out of the bath, as if she was shining with the glow, her eyes were also extraordinarily moist, and the dark fragrance flowed unexpectedly.

Hearing this, there was no joke, he reached out and picked up the wine glass, shook it, and said with a smile: "Normal, I was like this when I first came out, you were better than me then, at least you have a clear goal." ”

Laughing at Jiang Chen between the words, he stretched out his hand elegantly: "cheers!" ”

Jiang Chen smiled, raised his glass and touched it lightly: "cheers!" ”

As he spoke, he took a sip with his neck up, and got up to turn over the artifact he brought - chopsticks.

Luo Qing was stunned, and then laughed wildly: "You would think, even bring this." ”

"Well, if you don't, I've got two copies." Jiang Chen didn't think there was anything wrong.

He had eaten Western food, when he was in Xiangjiang.

Some basic etiquette and dining methods, he also basically mastered it, under Luo Qing's tutelage.

But still not used to it.

It's like not getting used to eating a steak that's not fully cooked.

Luo Qing thought for a while and said with a smile: "Then give me a copy, it's just two people, the tableware is not the same, and it looks weird and awkward." ”

So Jiang Chen gave Luo Qing a copy.

There's not much to say about eating.

Western food is typical of small amounts, exquisite presentation, and expensive.

In terms of taste, it is actually nothing, and the patterns cannot be compared with the traditional eight cuisines.

Including caviar too.

Is caviar really that good?

Caviar, it's really so particular, do you have to get it on the tiger's mouth, heat up the body temperature before eating?

In fact, it's all pretending to be forced, nonsense.

Saying a thousand things and ten thousand is to make things scarce and expensive, and then hype, pretending to be high-end ordinary people who can't afford to eat, so that they can be sold at a high price.

In fact, this thing is very fishy, salty and salty, as far as Jiang Chen is concerned, it is better to make a hot pot directly with fresh fish roe.

After eating, I called the waiter to come up and clean up, and the life of the democratic and free country officially began.

The first stop was Stanford.

Because it's so close, it's almost right next to the hotel.

Because it will only be noon, it is not appropriate to sleep, so you have to adjust the jet lag and maintain the normal local schedule.

It doesn't feel any different, it's just that the campus is bigger, the architectural style is different, and there are more foreigners.

In addition to this, what academic atmosphere, what learning atmosphere, sorry, it may be that this person is relatively dull, or it may not be that he has not entered those areas, and he can't feel it at all.

It's true that you can play talkatively.

All kinds of outdoor activities, there are always a lot of people, and there are locomotives driving around.

From time to time, people come over to talk, but they always like to think of the two of them as Japanese, otherwise they are Koreans.

Luo Qing smiled: "How is it, depressed, right?" These foreigners are always like this, and they are clearly not the same at all. ”

Jiang Chen smiled: "It's okay, I'm also face blind, you let me divide it, I only know white people, black people, yellow people." ”

After a pause, he said: "But it doesn't feel good to be treated as a little devil and a little stick for the first time, to put it mildly, our country is poor and not developed enough." ”

"Yes, so sometimes it's quite helpless, I know it, but I can't change it." Luo Qing sighed.

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Jiang Chen and smiled: "So, come on, among the people my aunt has come into contact with, you are the most hopeful to impress these foreigners." ”

The rating is quite high.

Jiang Chen took a long breath, looked back and forth, left and right, and said with a smile: "Do your best, to be honest, I don't think the recognition of these people outside is very important, I always think that it is most important to develop the country well and keep the industry and the fruits of labor in the country."

At most, a foreign country is a supplement, a place to make money and technology, and a battlefield that can stir up and disrupt the rhythm of Western development. ”

The tone is a bit big.

It is also different from almost all mainstream views today.

Because the West is developed at the moment, everything is looking towards the West.

It's just that as a latecomer, Jiang Chen doesn't think so.

Because the gap is really not that big.

There are many things, what is lacking is money, and what is lacking is the environment.

Facts have also proved that the market cannot be exchanged for technology, and the opening of the market only allows a large amount of labor fruits to flow out, and only enriches a group of speculative people.

The Western world has never wanted to help China develop, they just want to have a huge market of 1.6 billion people, and they just want to turn China into a low-end manufacturing factory.
