Chapter 620: Glory

What Zhang Lan means is to let all the members of the team come to China and spend an authentic Chinese New Year with everyone.

This proposal was welcomed by all the members of the team: they could only see what Chinese was like during the Spring Festival from the places where there were more Chinese people in their own country, and they wanted to participate in the lively scene of those days. Now that there is such a good opportunity to experience it for yourself, there is naturally no reason for everyone to miss such a good opportunity.

All the members of the team thought in their hearts: Wouldn't it be the best way for themselves to experience one of the biggest festivals of the year in these mysterious countries in the distant and mysterious Oriental Ancient and be able to participate in it in person? What could be more rewarding than this one?

On the 27th of December, a large group of senior leaders of the Alice Group in China, including Zhang Lan, Xiao Chenxi, Alice, Zhang Zongjun and Yang Zhi, all arrived in Beijing, ready to welcome their heroes back.

Fortunately, one thing to be thankful for is that in view of the upcoming Spring Festival, although there are many fans from all over the country who have come to welcome the Alice "Snow Leopard" team that has won glory for China, it is nothing compared to the whole of Beijing, and it is not a problem to book a hotel - fortunately, the hotel is not a holiday.

At 11 a.m. on December 28 of the lunar calendar, the Air China flight arrived normally, looking at the huge plane in the sky that was slowly descending painted with the logo of China Airlines, Zhang Lan was a little excited, there is no doubt that this plane is the plane where all the members of the Alice "Snow Leopard" team are riding.

Fortunately, this plane is large enough, and it is currently the largest aircraft in the world: the Boeing 747-400. In addition to being able to carry more than 400 passengers. There is also a storage capacity of 170 cubic meters. Kleinschmidt's champion car was brought back with no problems at all. Only this kind of super-large aircraft can take on such a long flight mission from Dakar to Beijing.

Outside the airport, a number of media have gathered, not only a variety of automotive magazines professional media, even a variety of news media that have nothing to do with the car have rushed over: Alice "Snow Leopard" team in the Dakar rally achieved the world's attention, this kind of exciting news, has gone beyond the simple car news, even to the domestic industry has been shaken, this is definitely the only example that has happened in recent years in the private sector to make foreigners pay attention to Chinese - Although Alice (China) Group looks like a mixed-race on the surface. But this Alice "Snow Leopard" off-road vehicle is a serious domestic car, and this alone is enough to be proud of.

Seeing such a scene, he originally planned to pick up the members of his team Lan and his family, but wisely did not choose to squeeze over, but waited on the side: these guys have been interviewing for many years and squeezing out experience, and they are competing for positions together, Zhang Lan does not have that confidence.

On the other side of the news media, there is a team of fans from all over the country who came to welcome the return of Alice's "Snow Leopard" convoy, Zhang Lan roughly estimated. I'm afraid there are no less than a thousand people, anyway, it's a black oppression. It looks very shocking! At this moment, all kinds of flags and slogans are waving vigorously in the hands of fans from all over the world, and the slogans of various welcome slogans are sounding over and over again!

In their opinion, although Alice Group is not really a homegrown car, what does it matter? Isn't there still half of Alice Auto Group's Chinese ancestry? Unlike local car companies such as Volkswagen and Toyota, Alice Motor Company developed from scratch in China. And from the very beginning, it has occupied the forefront of technology in the automobile industry, and it has come up with its own real skills! And not like Volkswagen, Toyota. Treat the Chinese market as your own ATM! In this way, we want to support the car manufacturers that give the Chinese long-term aspirations!

Listen to these slogans. Zhang Lan felt very uncomfortable in her heart: these people. For what? It's not just for China's local auto industry to stand up. At the forefront of the world's automotive industry? Although China's local automobile industry has made everyone sad again and again. But these hot-blooded men have never lost their confusion about Greece. Disappointed again and again. Finally, they have brought back the glory that Alice's "Snow Leopard" team has brought to them! Only hopefully. By working on yourself. In the future, he will be able to make more Chinese fans stand tall in front of foreign fans. Let more Chinese stand up their own waist when talking about their own industries with foreigners!

More than 80 members of the convoy got off the plane. But he didn't come out right away. Instead, he waited for the Yuta to arrive with the plane. Klein Schmidt cars came out together. It is estimated that the customs entry procedures are now being processed.

Wait for half an hour. Only then did I see Juta. Klein Schmidt and her land navigator Ralph. Pittsford drove their car. He was followed by all the members of Alice's "Snow Leopard" team. Slowly walked out of the airport.

It's obvious. The members of the Alice "Snow Leopard" team chose this exit point. It's not the one the media expected in advance. But even more so that they did not expect it. Alice's "Snow Leopard" team actually returned in a race car!

For the Alice "Snow Leopard" team and Juta. Kreinschmidt Benge made a great contribution to this chariot. At this moment, there is no longer the original modification, which has just been modified, and it is a little childish. Although the team had packed the car well before coming. But the scars everywhere on the car still show that he is brave on the field. It's like a scar is a soldier's medal. There is a faint hint of murder.

These scars. In Zhang Lan's view, it did not destroy the beauty of the car. On the contrary, it is like the scar on the body of a brave and good soldier. It is the best medal of one's own team.

Coincidentally, as if it had been negotiated in advance, the position of the convoy was exactly the position where Zhang Lan and Alice and other large families were waiting, not the VIP exit that the news media were staring at.

God knows, in fact, everyone doesn't know at all, after seeing his boss and a large family all come to greet him, including the general manager of the team, Ali. Vatanen and all the four main drivers of the team were stunned: they had thought it would be nice for the group to come and have one or two people greet them. ,

There are Chinese members in the team, and everyone has asked about the status of the Spring Festival in China, and everyone thinks that now their boss must be preparing for the New Year, and there will be no time to greet themselves, but they didn't expect that the team they saw to greet them turned out to be their own boss!

"Thank you!" Zhang Lan went up first and hugged Ali vigorously. Watanin, a nearly 50-year-old fellow, patted the old guy on the shoulder: if it weren't for the reasonable safety that this guy used his rich experience to make in the team's strategic formulation, the Alice "Snow Leopard" team would never have achieved such dazzling results today.

"I have to be worthy of the salary you offer me, boss, don't I?" Ali. Vatanin laughed and patted Zhang Lan's shoulder hard, this old and young man, but they sympathized with each other: he Ali. Watanen had plenty of reasons to laugh and try not to race in person, but what could be more proud of a team general manager than the Constructors' Championship, the Drivers' Championship and the Drivers' Third Place?

The two looked at each other, laughed again, and patted each other's backs vigorously before letting go of their hands.

"I'm sorry, Miss Kleinschmidt, I told you that if you could win the championship, I'd give you a helicopter, but the aircraft manufacturing company hasn't been built yet," said Juta, who had just gotten out of the car. Klein Schmidt, Zhang Lan looked embarrassed and disturbed, "It seems that I want to lose my trust."

"It's okay," said Juta, who won the championship. Klein Schmidt was in a good mood, went up and took the initiative to hug Zhang Lan gently, and looked at Zhang Lan with a smile, "Isn't there still four years to go?" I have time to wait. ”

In and Peter Hansel, Luca. Alfonne and De. After Villier hugged them one by one for a while, Zhang Lan realized that at some point, the group of reporters who were still in the distance just now had already swarmed over, and the shutter of the camera was clicking one after another. What's even more hateful is that it's daytime, what flashing lights are these journalists on? Even though it was broad daylight, Zhang Lan's eyes were a little dazzled when the camera's powerful flash was still flashing.

"The next time is your time," Zhang Lan pushed Ali in each of them. Vatanin, Yuta. Kleinschmidt, Peter Hansel, Luca. Alfonne and De. Villier pushed them in front of the reporters, "Now is your stage, enjoy your moment!" ”

For these reporters, Zhang Lan can only admire: today is the 28th of the lunar month, and the New Year will be celebrated in two days, but these guys still do not have a holiday to stay at their posts, no matter what the reason, just "dedication" is enough to make people respectable. What reassures Zhang Lan even more is that these reporters in China will not be too gossip now, and they will not follow your ass like the paparazzi in Hong Kong, as long as you cooperate with them well and answer their questions, everyone has been cooperating for so long, everyone knows what to say at this time, and they also know what to ask.

They need them to help them promote Alice Group, and they also need first-hand information about Alice's "Snow Leopard" team to increase the highlights of their magazines and news, and everyone is happy to work together.
