Chapter 282 The pyrotechnic master from neon
It was the Lantern Festival in a blink of an eye. Luo Jia called her parents. They finally got the ticket to the Forbidden City Lantern Festival and wanted to stay in the capital and set off tomorrow, so they couldn't wait to see the fireworks on the banks of the Huangpu River.
At around 5 pm, Xu Chunbiao and his colleagues from the Security Department drove everyone to Puxi. There were not many people, about fifty or sixty people, all of whom were senior executives of the company.
It’s not that Luo Jia is engaged in privileges, but that the company is too big now. He wants all his colleagues to go there, but unfortunately the conditions do not allow it. When you have the chance in the future, you can hold a fireworks party by yourself in the yard of Xingchen Technology. This time I will feel aggrieved everyone first.
Ping Yuying dressed up carefully, wearing a custom dress and high heels, a pearl necklace and earrings. There was a white cashmere jacket on the outside, which looked like walking on the red carpet. She was rarely mature.
Unfortunately, things were different from what she thought. This was not a date, but a collective action. Principal Raphael, An Ran and his wife, Li Moran and his girlfriend, were all there. It seemed that their random thoughts had been misunderstood.
Along the banks of the Huangpu River, there are more than a dozen places to set off fireworks, and the best viewing point is on both sides of the river, so Luo Jia booked the top floor of the Peace Hotel.
It was not easy to drive all the way. The traffic police and armed police were on high alert along the way, and the roads were very congested. It took a full two hours to arrive at the Peace Hotel.
Luo Jia muttered, if I had known this, it would be better to take the subway.
Pingyu Sakura, wearing high heels, did not speak, and quietly pulled her thin legs backwards.
The news always spread very quickly. Xingchen Technology wanted to set off fireworks, which caused a huge sensation in Shanghai. Not only were the locals excited, but tourists from nearby Nanjing and Hangzhou also came here during the festival. For a time, the city was empty and all gathered along the Huangpu River.
The top floor of Peace Hotel is not big, and so many guests are pouring in, so the hotel removed the tables and chairs and held a Western-style cocktail party. Everyone stood there, which was relatively space-saving, but even so, the scene could only accommodate more than 1,000 guests, which was already crowded.
The fireworks party is scheduled from 7:30 to 10:30.
Luo Jia took two portions of cod from the waiter and prepared to give Ping Yuying one, so that she could cushion her belly first.
When he turned around, he suddenly saw a few older neon people bowing wildly to Pingyu Ying, saying Japanese that Luo Jia didn't understand. His attitude was too respectful and almost knelt down for her.
Pingyu Sakura smiled and nodded slightly. She responded very calmly without panic. It seemed that this was not the first time she encountered such a thing.
"Haiyu Sakura is a neon nobleman, she is probably recognized." An Ran said, "When we were at MIT, there was a professor ono Hojo who was engaged in brain cognition. Every time he saw Hiya Sakura, he bowed, and the scene was once very awkward."
"But this situation is limited to older men. After all, the old men often have more old ideas in their minds. Although Neon young classmates also know that Pingyu Ying has a high social status, they at most show respect and will not bow down like this."
Luo Jia looked at it and found that the group of neon people who were bending around Pingyu Ying were generally around seventy years old. Judging from the suits on her body, they should also have social status, but it was a bit incredible that Pingyu Ying was so respectful to Pingyu Ying, a little girl.
Li Moran's girlfriend is a college student and she is very lively and outgoing. She smiled and said, "I'll tell you a joke?"
"The Chinese standing on the stage raised their arms and shouted, "Are you going to be a king, prince, general and minister?"
"The Neon people and Indians in the audience immediately stood up and replied loudly, "Yes!"
Suddenly, everyone laughed, only Professor Raphael looked confused.
Qi Mengzhou, who is a newly married woman, answers the principal's doubts.
Chinese people do not believe in aristocrats and destiny. As the saying goes, the emperor takes turns to do it. This year, he is willing to sacrifice himself and dare to take down the emperor. In short, it is a group of people who are unwilling to accept and do not believe in fate.
But Neon is different from India. In India, Brahmin children are always Brahmins and always superior to others.
In Neon, the son of the chaebol is still the chaebol, and the son of the prime minister is still the prime minister. Most Neon people are divided into classes. Even if they make money one day, it will be difficult for civilians to squeeze into the circle of nobles.
Principal Raphael said in shock that the longer he lived in China, the more he discovered the magic of this land.
It may be a lucky chance that a civilization can succeed. Maya, Mesopotamia, Mycenae, and these once extremely brilliant civilizations are just a flash in history.
But if a civilization can go through thousands of years of ups and downs, and if other civilizations die, it is definitely not a lucky explanation.
Luo Jia smiled, walked to Ping Yuying, and handed the cod to her. Ping Yuying took it with a smile.
This somewhat ambiguous scene was shocked to see the eyes of the old neon men. Even when they looked at Luo Jia, a look of hatred was seen across their eyes.
After Pingyu Ying left, the old men were still chattering, snatching Luo Jia with their eyes, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
While Pingyu Ying and Qi Mengzhou went to the dressing room, Luo Jia asked, "Who do you know how to speak Japanese?"
"I used to date a Neon girlfriend." said Lu Tao, chief financial officer.
"Go and listen to what those old men are saying." Luo Jia tilted her head over there.
Not long after, Lu Tao came back, and he shrugged at Luo Jia and said, "Those old guys didn't say anything good."
"What about?" Luo Jia asked curiously.
"They are discussing how the lady of the Ping family is mixed with the scoundrels of China. She is simply a flower inserted into cow dung. As a noble, it is so embarrassing." Lu Tao said.
Luo Jia rolled her eyes. After all, she was a successful person now. She was described as a scoundrel and cow dung, which was really too much.
An Ran patted Luo Jia on the shoulder, "Who can you blame? If the waiter hadn't known you, I'm afraid that no one would have let you in just yours."
Luo Jia was speechless, wearing hoodies, sneakers, and sweatpants all his life. Has he been guilty of wearing this?
Others were also unhappy. Li Moran wore a Parker coat, which was a plaid shirt that had not changed for thousands of years. Dr. Ling Feng wore a baseball cap to cover his premature aging hairline.
Anyway, there are only Professor An Ran, Lu Tao and Raphael who dress more appropriately, but others are all passers-by. The company has no dress requirements, so everyone has long been used to wearing casual clothes.
"What else?" Luo Jia asked again.
Lu Tao frowned, "They seem to know fireworks quite well, and they are talking about the fireworks technology of Ibaraki and Tamakawa far exceeding China. Although fireworks originated in China, they are carried forward in neon lights. Even if Star Technology is used, it will not be possible to win."
"Anyway, these old men are a bit vicious. They are worthless in depreciating the fireworks we made. They say that their bald chrysanthemum, the Sea Star, and Fuji can completely crush the most powerful fireworks in China. It sounds like, bald chrysanthemums should be the type of fireworks, right?"
Luo Jia nodded. In order to make fireworks, he specially studied China's largest competitor.
Neon currently has four major firework sects, namely Tamakawa, Ibaraki, Akita, Nagaoka, and small sects such as Enoshima, Sumida River, and Nagashima.
Bald Ju, Sea Star, and Fuji are indeed all product names for neon large fireworks. These products are sold all over the world and are expensive, forming a two-legged stalemate with the domestic Liuyang fireworks.
At present, in the whole world, once there is a celebration, buying neon goods for large fireworks and buying Liuyang goods is a consensus. Because large fireworks are not allowed in China, it is quite sad to let neons get a hole in the competition.
At this time, Pingyu Ying and Qi Mengzhou came back from the dressing room.
Luo Jia asked Ping Yuying, who were those people.
Ping Yuying was simple, she said without thinking: "Oh, they are from the Fireworks Association. This time they came to China to watch the fireworks of Xingchen Technology. Two of them are the heirs of the major sects. I am not familiar with them, but my father knows them."
"Luo Jiajun is so amazing. These fireworks masters are rarely seen at ordinary times. Because of Luo Jiajun, they all came to China."
After hearing Ping Yuying's words, Luo Jia smiled, and the others laughed, only Ping Yuying and Principal Raphael were stupid, and they didn't know what they were laughing at.
"So it's a competitor." Li Moran's little girlfriend pouted mischievously.
"No, they told me that this time I'm here to study." Ping Yuying, the silly child, waved her hand quickly and explained seriously.
Chemistry Minister Zhang Dongning shrugged and said lightly, "Study, then some of them have learned."
At this moment, the neon lights by the Huangpu River suddenly went out, and then a dazzling silver light like a meteor rose from the other side.
His eyes were like arrows, instantly piercing the night, rising to the sky, and then suddenly exploded in the clouds.
