Chapter VI Raising the Flag
It was hard to explain to Molina the difference between copycats and genuine products, but Rao was so, Molina still made a lot of purchases, and bought a lot of luxury goods from various "world-famous brands". Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This made Geng Ziyu both surprised and depressed, surprised that knowing that it was "A goods", Molina, a foreigner, was still a combat effectiveness report, depressed, Molina did not understand Chinese at all, and there were obstacles to communication with the vendor owner, in order to prevent Molina from being ripped off by bad vendors, he could only follow behind the whole process, this night market street down, he was not only tired and his legs were weak, but also hung a lot of "brand-name bags" on his body.
"Shouldn't this guy really come to the city with dirt buns and want to buy whatever he sees?"
This is Geng Ziyu's emotion.
But in Molina's words, the cottage is the cottage, the ability of the Chinese cottage is so strong, the quality of these A goods is very high, enough to be fake, even if he buys it back, even if he can't use it, it is not bad to fill the façade at home, and if a friend comes, he can also have a look, proving that he has also been a "local tyrant" in China.
Such a reason is laughable, but Fan Bizhuang doesn't care, this time he came to China, although he accepted the invitation of Xtep on the surface, but more, it was mainly for leisure travel.
Everything is based on happiness.
After wandering around the "cottage street" for two hours, the food in the stomach was almost digested, and a group of people were ready to return to the hotel to rest, of course, everyone was covered with large bags and small bags, Molina's results were remarkable, and the big guy could only act as his porter for free.
"China is such a magical place!"
"Ha, it's very good, it's lively, it's bustling."
"So many good things, but the price is so cheap, oh oh oh, Geng, you and health care are really happy, you can live in this paradise like a place since you were a child, there are so many delicious and fun things...... Hmm, where are we going tomorrow? ”
Along the way, Molina was chattering excitedly, looking at his energetic appearance, it was obvious that he was not yet happy, and he was already thinking about where to go tomorrow.
Geng Ziyu responded to his words, and at the same time introduced the buildings and scenery on both sides of the road to Fan Bizhuang, told the history of these buildings, and some past allusions, Fan Bizhuang listened to it with relish.
A few people chatted and walked away, but they didn't notice that on the other side of the street, a black Audi A8 was quietly parked under the dim street lamp.
"Boss, do you want to go down for a walk?"
The driver didn't know why his boss suddenly thought of coming to this "fake street" at night, probably because he was too bored to stay in the manor, so he wanted to come out and relax. As for shopping, no kidding, with the wealth and status of the boss, will you look at these messy "knockoffs"?
"Buying so many things? I don't think I can't hold it with my own hands. ”
The old man suddenly showed a faint smile, but when he heard the driver's question, he thought about it and waved his hand, "No need, go back." ”

When it was still dark outside the window, a rapid and violent sound of "bell bell bell ~" suddenly sounded in the silent room, Fan Bizhuang opened his eyes, reached out and pressed the alarm clock, and the room was quiet again.
The hour hand pointed exactly to 2:30.
This was set by Fan Bizhuang before he fell asleep, so he didn't delay, immediately got up from the bed, got dressed, washed up slightly, and walked out of the room.
Outside the door opposite him, Molina was already up, but he was not in good spirits, yawning and looking at his employer with sleepy eyes.
"I don't think it's a good idea to go out so early. I still reserve my opinion, if you can, you can watch it through your computer, what do you think, Fan? ”
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go, Mr. Contelares."
Fan Bizhuang shook his head with a smile and walked towards the elevator first.
Helpless, Molina yawned again and raised his heel.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
There is a saying in China that "if you don't go to the Great Wall, you are not a hero", which literally means that when you arrive in China, you must go to the Great Wall to browse, and this is a good man, and it is worth the trip.
But for people in Beijing, in addition to the Great Wall, there is another activity that cannot be ignored, that is, to watch the flag-raising ceremony in Tiananmen Square.
The national flag is a symbol of a country, and when the sun rises in the east, witnessing the motherland's flag rising, the pride and pride in my heart are naturally indescribable.
Only when you have seen the raising of the national flag can it be regarded as a truly worthwhile trip.
When he was in Spain, Fan Bizhuang watched the video of raising the national flag through the computer, and he was moved by the huge square, the crowds around the viewing platform, the solemnity of the march of the 10,000 people singing the March of the Volunteers when the national flag was slowly raised, and the strong sense of national pride revealed in the song.
But video is always video, there is still a gap with reality, as a Chinese with dragon blood in their bones, even if they have never left their own mark on this land, Fan Bizhuang still wants to feel immersive.
This time, at the invitation of Xtep, he came to Beijing, and took this opportunity to say that Fan Bizhuang could not miss anything, and it was necessary to watch the ceremony of raising the national flag.
So after returning to the hotel, Fan Bizhuang informed Molina and asked him to get up at half past two and go to Tiananmen Square with him.
The sky outside the hotel was still pitch dark, and two figures walked quickly through the road, slowly advancing towards their destination.
The Grand Hyatt Hotel is not too far from Tiananmen Square, and it is only a few minutes' walk away, and Fan Bizhuang has already inquired about the route, so the two came to the square smoothly.
It was less than three o'clock, but there were already a lot of people in the square, all of whom were ordinary people who came to watch the flag-raising ceremony.
"Fortunately, I came early, and I was able to occupy a good position."
Fan Bizhuang pulled Molina through the seemingly sparse crowd and finally stopped at the closest spot to the flag-raising platform.
In fact, he originally wanted to go to the viewing platform, but unfortunately, the viewing platform was not open to the general public, so this plan was not abandoned.
After waiting in the cold wind for almost two hours, there were more and more people in the square, and the darkness in the sky did not completely dissipate, but the sky was already showing bright traces of light, and gradually, a dark red light began to shimmer on the horizon.
"It's coming!"
"Here !! come"
Suddenly there were several such roars in the crowd in the square, and the noise and noise increased to a higher level, and then the square suddenly became silent and the atmosphere became solemn.
Fan Bizhuang looked in the direction of the crowd's cheers, and a column of soldiers dressed in armed police uniforms suddenly appeared at the end of the horizon, and the first soldier was solemnly carrying a bright red flag, and on his left and right, two soldiers followed with guns. Behind the three of them, all the armed police soldiers were carrying guns, and the team maintained a constant speed, always moving forward slowly.
As the procession approached, the square fell completely silent, except for the footsteps of the warriors kicking on the ground.
"Oh! Great! ”
“Great! Incredible! Incredible! ”
"This is a real steel force! I've never seen such a solemn scene! How they did it! ”
Molina, who was beside him, suddenly exclaimed, he had never seen such a flag-raising ceremony abroad, nor had he seen such an event, and at first sight, he couldn't help but shout.
Obviously, this serious and quiet scene infected him, a foreigner.
Under the gaze of tens of thousands of eyes, the national flag guards finally marched to the bottom of the national flag platform, and after a series of preparations, the national flag was tied to the flagpole.
At this time, the horizon has completely exposed the whiteness of the fish's belly.
Everyone's attention was already fully focused on the flag stand, and everyone's face was solemn and expectant.
"Silence!"
"Raise the national flag! Play the national anthem! ”
As soon as the drum beat of the military band sounded, the flag bearer waved the corner of the national flag in the air, and the national flag was waved in the air in the wind, and then slowly raised upward.
"Get up! People who don't want to be slaves! Build our flesh and blood into our new Great Wall......"
The rousing music sounded completely, and the crowd in the square shouted to the music almost simultaneously.
Those who are not there will not understand the solemnity and solemnity of this scene, nor will they experience the indescribable national pride in their hearts at this moment.
Nearly 10,000 people sang in chorus, nearly 10,000 pairs of eyes, watching the national flag rise, the visual impact of the national flag rising with the sun, which is exciting!
Fan Bizhuang's expression was equally solemn and solemn, in the huge crowd of spectators, he was just an insignificant small wave, he just opened his mouth, chanted softly, over and over again, his eyes always looked at the bright and bloody flag.
The music ended, the chorus ended, and the crowd erupted in an earth-shattering cheer.
"Long live the People's Republic of China!"
"Chinese people, long live!"
Only with such a shout and roar can people seem to vent the agitated emotions in their chests.
Fan Bizhuang followed the crowd, also clenched his fists and shouted loudly.
Molina didn't sing the Chinese national anthem and didn't understand what these people were shouting, but he was also infected by this spectacular scene, and he kept roaring with his fists.
"It's great!"
"It's so beautiful!"
"It's spectacular!"
