Winter in Germany is cold, not only in terms of air or temperature, but also in the clothes they wear.

Fu Tiao, dressed in a thick jacket, packed the suit his agent had brought him into his suitcase, and walked out of his room yawning.

Outside, it wasn't yet completely bright, even though it was already seven or eight o'clock in the morning.

But the feeling from the outside always makes people feel that it may only be three or four o'clock in the morning.

Dense traffic has begun to drive through the dimly lit streets, like the evening rush hour at night, speeding past with orange-yellow headlights.

And under Fu Tiao's door, there were also countless people gathered, wearing the same cold-colored jackets, walking through the triangle square in front of the house, walking to the nearest subway station, and getting into it.

Warm yourself up in the tin compartment like a sardine can, and make yourself warmer.

They are already a group of people who are late to work, and the real volume kings have come to the class as early as four or five o'clock in the morning to start work.

It's not that they want to be rolled, it's just because ......

Working at four or five o'clock in the morning, they can leave work at twelve o'clock in the afternoon, before the sun has completely set, and then lie on the lawn in the center of the city, enjoying this last share of warmth.

Unlike this group of people, Fu Tiao didn't need to go to work so early.

All he needed was to catch the train from Berlin to Hamburg with the group of migrant workers.

At 7:30 a.m., in the dark of the night, the transparent Berlin main fire shimmered brightly, illuminating the surroundings like jewels.

It's just that this light is extraordinarily cold.

Fu Tiao followed the crowd to the station where he was going to and waited.

After just a few minutes of waiting, the train from Berlin to Hamburg had already tore through the night and arrived in front of Fu Tune.

Rarely, this car is actually not late.

And when Fu transferred to the car, the car actually started according to the predetermined time, smashed the fog in the night, and rushed towards the north.

Under the driving of the vehicle, a glimmer of white light gradually lit up in the pitch-black sky in the distance.

There was no spectacular sunrise, just an incomparably slow change, the darkness around it gradually dissipated, and the light returned to the cold earth.

This is Germany.

It was just after eight o'clock in the morning in Germany.

The heating in the ICE compartment was turned on very well, and Fu Diao had already taken off his clothes just after he came in, wearing only a simple plush shirt.

He sat by the window of the carriage and looked out the window.

In the distance, a slowly rotating wind turbine stands alone in the distance.

Although it is already winter, there is still a little green in the sky.

Fu Tiao doesn't know how many times he has seen such a scene, but every time he takes a train through this land, he always feels that he can't see enough of this scenery.

"Hello sir, your coffee!"

A gentle career sounded from Fu Tune's side.

Fu Diao sat in the first class, where there was free coffee to receive, plus there was only one Fu Diao in the entire first class.

Therefore, after the vehicle was running smoothly, the staff walked over directly with the machine in their hands, holding coffee in one hand and controlling the machine with the other hand, and said to Fu Tuo.

"Then, sir, can you show me your ticket?"

"Okay......

Fu Tuo bowed his head and handed over the ticket QR code on his mobile phone, and after the staff quickly scanned it, he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Fu Tuo.

"This is your coffee, would you rather have a normal black coffee, or a coffee with foam, or a latte, or a cappuccino?"

"Cappuccino! Thanks a lot. ”

Fu Tiao nodded.

After the staff selected the coffee in their hands, they handed Fu a cup of cappuccino that had been mixed and a piece of brown sugar biscuit, and said with a smile.

"Please take your time, sir."

"Thank you."

Fu Tiao smiled and took the coffee handed over by the staff, and after taking a slight sip, the rich milky aroma and black coffee mixed in his mouth, obviously......

This is a machine soaked, and then casually frothed with some milk, which is sold on the roadside outside for about three euros, and only needs one euro of ordinary cappuccino in the supermarket.

And the brown sugar biscuits at hand are sweet.

It's just that this sweetness can just combine the bitterness of coffee.

After Fu took a sip, he asked the staff member who had not yet left.

"Anyway...... Hasn't there been so many first-class seats lately? ”

"Of course."

The staff helplessly apologized: "The first class seat is not twice as expensive as the ordinary seat, so few people will choose the first class seat, and you are the only one who buys this train, which is why I came to check the ticket." ”

"...... like this"

Fu Tiao nodded, indicating that he understood.

The staff member also seemed to have found the conversation, and complained directly to Fu Diao.

"I don't know why Deutsche Bahn still supports so many first-class seats per train, and the most commonly used first-class seats are either those frequent flyers or those parliamentarians! Do you know the recent Greens MPs? They put on a show and made a show on our Deutsche Bahn! ”

"Listen to what you say...... You're not a Green? ”

"I'm from the CDU, but I'm still kind of supportive of the Greens, but this time the Greens did a little too much."

The staff member looked at Fu Tiao's appearance as if he was willing to talk to him, and continued to speak.

"What kind of joke is it that their Greens people actually took pictures and said that their Greens MPs are like everyone else, because they have no place in the second class seat and can only sit on the ground?"

"Are you kidding?" Fu Tuo was a little puzzled, he was not particularly clear about these: "Is there anything wrong with this?" ”

"That's a big problem!"

The staff member complained directly: "That person is a member of the Green Party, no matter what party the parliamentarian, as long as there is a serious position of parliamentarian, they all have a railway pass jointly issued by Deutsche Bahn and the German Confederation, this certificate is the same as the Deutsche Bahn 100, can be used for unlimited rides, although I also support the Green Party, but this behavior is too outrageous." ”

The Deutsche 100 is a type of ticket sold by Deutsche Bahn.

There are six types in total.

German 1st and 2nd class 25, German 1st and 2nd class 50, and German 1st class and 2nd class 100.

The number is the discount, 25 means 25% off, 50 is 50% off, and 100 ...... That's 100% minus.

The parliamentarian's card is a transportation card issued by the council chamber and has the same effect as the German first-class 100.

This price is very expensive, the price of the German first class 100 is a full 7356 euros a year.

Probably for those who run around all over Germany all day, this is a good deal.

However, for normal people, it is basically difficult to use such a card, and there is no way to fully use the money back when you buy it.

The reason why Fu Tiao has some impressions of this kind of card is, after all, ......

His teacher Klaus had one such Deutschland 100.

Although it is second-class, it only costs more than 4,000 euros.

He often saw his teacher running to other places with his luggage after class, almost going around the whole of Germany, holding exchange meetings with various schools, and asking Fu Tiao if he wanted to go with him if he had anything to do.

And Fu Tiao was reluctant to spend so much money, except for the round-trip tickets issued by the brokerage company, he basically rarely went out, so he bought a German second-class 25 for use.

This made him even more impressed with the Deutsche 100.

Fu Tiao groped his chin and nodded slowly.

"It's a bit of a show."

"Right? And as you can see, the first-class seats are empty, and most of the bus from Berlin to Hamburg is empty today, and there are only a few stops where people will get on the bus, so there is no way to understand what the parliamentarian is doing. ”

The staff shook their heads and sighed.

"I know the importance of environmental protection, but that's not the root of their show, even if I have a good impression of the Greens, I can't keep up with their MPs."

"Indeed."

Fu Tuo smiled and didn't say anything.

He wasn't German, he was just an ordinary artist in the music industry.

After complaining to Fu for a while, the staff member shook his head and turned to leave.

When leaving, he said to Fu Tiao, if you have any questions, you can find him.

It's not just about drinking coffee, but also about the travel guide of Hamburg, he is from the vicinity of Hamburg and often goes to Hamburg, so he knows a lot about Hamburg.

According to him, the most interesting thing in Hamburg is the bus boat.

As a port city, it is definitely rare to use a boat as a common means of transportation for citizens.

And the last time he saw such a scene was in the city next door, Venice, Italy.

Fu Tiao naturally kept it in his heart and thanked him.

The car continued to move forward, and several old people came from the middle first class, who seemed to be celebrating something, excitedly handing out pastries to everyone who saw it.

When I walked to Fu Tiao's side, Fu Tiao didn't like pastries so much, so he didn't ask for them.

As a result, the old man looked at Fu Tiao's young appearance and thought that Fu Tiao was a member of the Green Party, so he kept explaining that this was Vagen, that is, vegetarian, and did not harm any animals at all.

"I know that you young people like vegetarian food, and you all support the Greens, although my old people don't like the Greens so much, I always feel that they are very boring, but you young people like it, I specially made vegetarian snacks, try it! My son got married today! ”

Looking at the joyful expression on the old man's face, Fu Tiao hesitated for a moment and thanked the old man, took a piece of the pastry that seemed to be Turkish or Arabic, and took a sip gently.

The taste is slightly rough, but very heavy.

The dense fruit people inside are paired with syrup milk and the bottom puff pastry, giving such a small candy a layered taste.

I don't know if I'm eating pastries or candy.

It was a lot of fun.

But......

Is there such a high level of support for the Greens among young people in Germany?

For the first time, Fu listened carefully to the voices of that group of people, and only then did he realize how the support of each party was distributed.

Older people will be more willing to support the CDU and the like, after all, these parties are in coalition government, and after being in power for so many years, everyone has some feelings.

And people like the red necks of the pretty country, that is, middle-income middle-aged people, will be more willing to support the right wing like the AfD, hoping that they will not take in so many refugees and reduce the exorbitant taxes.

As for the young people......

Among them, the Greens seem to be popular, even if they go to McDonald's and KFC, they all go to vegetarian burgers and vegetarian fried chicken (fried tofu) to eat.

I don't know if it's for show, or conformity, or if I really like vegetarianism and want to lose weight.

It's hard to comment.

But all this has nothing to do with Fu Diao, he just looks at this group of people from the perspective of a bystander and observes them.

Such a small turmoil is just a very small and small thing in the middle of the trip, and it does not produce fluctuations at all.

The only thing worth mentioning is that the train from Berlin to Hamburg is extremely rare, arriving in Hamburg only 10 minutes late.

Fu Tiao stood in the main fire of Hamburg, looking at everything around him with a little surprise.

The main fire in Hamburg is outrageously large, even similar to the main fire in Frankfurt.

The dense station gates are filled with countless vehicles, and vehicles enter and exit at all times.

The crowd was so dense that Fu Tiao even suspected that he was not in Hamburg now, but in Frankfurt.

It wasn't until Fu turned up the main heat of the burger that he realized what the real ...... was

Classical and trendy intertwined.

Between the skyscrapers, there are dense European-style traditional buildings.

The brand new building reflects the sun's rays, setting it on top of the nearby Baroque church.

It's big and beautiful.

Fu Tiao had just walked out of the station with his suitcase when his mobile phone rang.

When he answered the phone, a serious staff member spoke.

"Hello, is it Fu, Mr. Dior?"

"Hmm."

"You're on the main fire in Hamburg now, aren't you?"

"Yes."

"Okay, please wait for me behind the door of the main fire in Hamburg, and in three minutes, I will be picking you up in a solid black suit and white shirt, you should be able to see me, and I will pay attention to your position!"

"Okay."

Fu Tiao nodded.

After confirming Fu Tuo's information on the other end of the phone, he hung up the phone.

As said on the same phone, three minutes later, a young man wearing a black solid suit and a white shirt walked up to Fu Diao with a full mouth and beard, looked at him and said happily.

"You're Mr. Fu, aren't you? I was sent by the city hall to pick you up, because we knew you weren't coming by car, so we arranged a car for you...... Would you like me to show you the city of Hamburg as a whole? ”

"I'm in trouble."

Fu Tiao looked at the city and nodded slightly.

He was also a little curious about what the city was like.

This port city and the port city of his imagination...... Doesn't seem quite the same?

There's nothing special in this place that you don't see at all.

All you can see is a very flat land, and you can't find the slightest element of the sea from the main fire.

Even watching all this will make you a little suspicious.

Did you really come to a seaside city?

You say you're a seaside port city, but what about your sea?

Fu Tiao felt that he hadn't seen the sea for a long time.

But when Fu Tiao got into the car sent by the city hall, he finally understood......

The seaside city lives up to its name.

The car at the city hall is a Mercedes-Benz, and it is not clear what the specific model Fu Tu is, but the Mercedes-Benz logo is particularly conspicuous on the front of the car.

The whole looks a bit like a minivan, except that the two rows of seats in the back are not facing each other, but face each other.

After Fu Tiao got into the car and sat in the direction of progress, the man from the city hall sat opposite Fu Tiao and asked the driver to walk around the city more.

The driver understood and wandered around the city with Fu Tiao and the man from the town hall.

Everything here is extraordinarily calm and gentle.

The soft sunlight in the winter shines on the inside of the car, and you can still feel a trace of warmth, not the chill outside the car.

The dense old buildings and churches all show the strength of Hamburg.

Wages per capita here are the highest in the whole of Germany and even higher than in Munich.

But this is not the case with the standard of living here.

In addition to the slightly better house prices, the normal level of consumption is actually about the same as in Berlin, or even slightly lower.

After walking around the city for a while, the driver began to drive towards the river.

After passing through the modern and ancient buildings, the crowd suddenly became cheerful.

Rows of glass walls like sails are piled on top of the quaint and old red warehouses.

Like a needle in the sea, it is pierced in the harbor on the Elbe River in Hamburg.

Leaving the reinforced concrete building, the first thing you can see when you come to the river, you can see this building that has gone through more than ten years and cost nearly 800 million euros.

When Fu Tiao saw this building, he finally understood......

Why can this kind of building be called one of the three unfinished buildings in Germany?

Because......

It's spectacular!

Fu Tune didn't know how to describe this concert hall.

Even if he looked at it from a distance, he could imagine what it was like to play in it.

German designers only think about how spectacular, how majestic, how to come, only think of spectacle.

But they didn't think about how to reasonably plan the construction route.

A combination of factors has finally led to the recent unveiling of this masterpiece of modern architecture.

Beautiful, really beautiful.

The person in charge of the city hall looked at the building in the distance and couldn't help but sigh.

"This is the new landmark of our city of Hamburg."

"Hamburg, Elbe Hall."
