【942】 Christmas party

After dinner in the evening, Xiao Feng and his family gathered in the living room to watch TV. It was snowing outside the house and the room was warm. It was naturally extremely warm to get together.

In the evening, Xiao Feng took "Xiao Pang" to the constant temperature swimming pool behind the house, washed it carefully, and then put it in the living room.

Look, Nini and Yuer were lying on the body of "Xiaopang", like holding an extra-large bear, staring through the window at the snowflakes floating under the street lights outside the house.

The old man and the old lady went into the room to rest before nine o'clock. This has been a habit for decades, and it has not changed whether in Ginkgo Village or in the United States.

The satellite TV of "Maple Leaf Castle" can naturally also receive domestic TV programs. For the elderly, they are more accustomed to watching domestic channels.

Of course, my parents have been in America for nearly a year, and their English reading and writing abilities are quite average, but their listening and speaking skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and they can watch local news programs in America smoothly.

"Isn't this the Bei family?" During the process of changing channels, Xiao Jinyang shouted in surprise.

In fact, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao have always called Xiao Bei "David", but the old man looked at the newspaper and called him "Xiao Bei" intimately.

At this time, the old man stopped changing the channel and locked in the channel to see what news happened to the "Boy Bet" family.

The manifestation of Xiao Bei's super high popularity in China is that people like Xiao Jinyang, who are nearly fifty years old, know his name and have some understanding of his basic situation.

The most famous football player in the world, this title is not something to be covered!

Since Xiao Feng and Xiao Bei's family met, the old man has also consciously paid attention to Xiao Bei's information. It can be seen at a glance that Xiao Bei's family was besieged by reporters at the Kennedy Airport in New York.

"This Leah is thin, but she is also a good woman to raise!" My mother and Xu's mother completely put her point on Victoria's figure and commented on her.

In the eyes of the elderly, Victoria, who pursues a model figure, is too thin. However, her sons are tall and big, and Xiaoqi is also well-behaved and cute, which makes the elderly amazing.

"Brother Brooklyn, Brother Romeo!" Nini shouted excitedly when she saw the familiar figure appearing on the TV screen from afar!

"Brother Cruz and Sister Xiaoqi!" Yu'er was also unwilling to be outdone. She called out the names of her two brothers and sisters, and asked Xiao Feng when their brothers and sisters would arrive at the ranch.

Although the children have been separated from the North American continent and the Atlantic Ocean these days, the videos between them have never been interrupted. Children often talk about various interesting things at school or at home.

I knew that Xiaobei and his family were going to celebrate Christmas in the ranch. The two children had been looking forward to it for a long time. Nini recently even learned to read the calendar and count the days!

At home, Nini has always been an elder sister and takes care of her younger brother, but in front of Xiaobei's three brothers, she can enjoy the care of the little gentlemen.

As for Yu'er, she has a slight gap with three older brothers who are much older than her. She has a good relationship with Xiaoqi, who is the same year. The two little people can say something for a long time together.

Whether it is the intersection of personal relationships and work, Xiao Feng attached great importance to the Beckham family. He took advantage of this Christmas to invite their family to the "Dream Ranch" for vacation and skiing, and discuss some of the affairs of Newcastle United.

Seeing their family appear at Kennedy Airport in New York, Xiao Feng could understand the behavior of Beckham's family showing off. After all, their family has at least various endorsements from 20 manufacturers, and it is necessary to maintain a certain exposure.

They will have to attend a product launch conference in New York tomorrow and then shop more often before they can arrive at the 'Dream Ranch'.

………

Christmas is approaching, and it is time for many Europeans and Americans to start their vacation, but for media workers, it is not a day to relax.

Taking New York Kennedy Airport as an example, at least 100 media reporters from all over the world are waiting inside and outside, looking forward to photographing some celebrities and political and business celebrities.

Look, when Xiao Bei's family appeared in the airport hall under the protection of security personnel, the entire airport suddenly became commotion.

Beckham and Victoria are well-known in the United States, not to mention that Beckham’s identities are very different now. As the director of the Commerce Department of Newcastle United, Beckham also had the title of ‘Business Elite’.

Of course, what makes the media more interested is that Xiao Bei's family has a good personal relationship with Xiao Feng's family, the richest man in China, which also makes his status in the eyes of the media rise.

In this case, Beckham appeared at Kennedy Airport, which naturally attracted much attention from the media.

Soon reporters flocked to the scene. After a brief interview at the airport, the Beckham family hurriedly left at the convoy of advertisers who picked up the plane.

Through Beibei's answer, everyone knows that the purpose of Beibei coming to the United States is not only attending relevant manufacturer activities, but also celebrating Christmas at the "Dream Ranch"!

American media are not unfamiliar with the ‘Dream Ranch’ and ‘Dream Scenic Area’. Even a year ago, almost all media unanimously criticized the ‘Dream Ranch’, believing that this was an investment decision made by Xiao Fengchangfu after he became enthusiastic.

But I never thought that in a year, all media changed the wind direction without any moral integrity and praised Xiao Feng!

This is the case when things change!

Xiao Feng first acquired the "Dream Ranch" with a total area of ​​250,000 acres for US$300 million, and invested five times the amount of money to renovate the ranch and purchased tens of thousands of breeding cattle.

According to financial media survey data on American ranch profit margins, the annual income of American farm ranch is around 5%-8%. Xiao Feng’s nearly $2 billion investment does not know when and when will he recover the cost?

There are even many media hostile to China publicly claiming that Xiao Feng was transferring assets from China to America, which undoubtedly proves the insecurity of China's private property, etc.

However, the turning point of things happened this fall. The first batch of more than 16,000 "Fantasy Beef Cattle" in "Dream Ranch" was successfully slaughtered. Not only was it awarded the "P-N-Me-Class Beef" by the American Department of Agriculture, but it was also sold out in a short time through the Wharton Group's channels!

The revenue of 200 million US dollars and the profit of more than 150 million US dollars made everyone stunned and shocked!

According to this trend, it will only take ten years to recover the investment cost of "Dream Ranch". This immediately made Xiao Feng's investment behavior regarded as a classic by many business schools.

Similar to "Dream Ranch", the "Dream Scenic Area" that was officially opened to tourists for 8 months also delivered an amazing report card in 2014.

Although the number of tourists with 400,000 passengers is not large, because most tourists are high-end consumers, they spend a lot of money in the "Dream Scenic Area". The per capita spending of US$500 per capita made the revenue of "Dream Scenic Area" exceed US$200 million in 2014. The profit is also quite good.

Last week, the ski resort of "Dream Scenic Area" successfully hosted a competition in the World Cup skiing series, successfully combining it with the sports industry. Through the live TV screen, the popularity of "Dream Scenic Area" has risen sharply in European and American countries where skiing is popular, and has faintly become one of the first-class scenic spots.

In addition, the deliciousness of the ‘Dream Restaurant’ also makes every visitor who has tasted it. Many repeat customers go to the various delicacies of the scenic area, giving the ‘Dream Scenic Area’ a strong customer stickiness.

The comprehensive development of ranches and scenic spots has made media reporters and industry insiders unable to understand it. No one expected that this sunset industry could also be so charming.

Since high-tech companies such as Yahoo, Google, AE-Poker, and Apple have emerged in the new century and become the leaders of the high-tech industry, the capital and people of the United States have focused on the high-tech industry.

The dazzling glory of "Jinghu Group" in the agricultural industry subverts the Americans' established impression of these "sunset industries". It turns out that farms and ranches have great potential!

To this end, a large number of financial experts have conducted a comprehensive analysis of the investment and industry of "Jinghu Group" in the United States, but have not drawn too many conclusions.

Because only Xiao Feng knew the existence of the "Space Spirit Spring". Even the veterans of the "Mirror Lake Group" could only vaguely discover some secrets on the boss, but they were not clear.

Seeing the large-scale investment in the agricultural industry of the United States, many capitals were eager to try and wanted to get a share of it. According to the information released by relevant survey companies, since the second half of 2014, the transaction prices of bulk land in the United States have risen slightly. In addition to the reasons why Chinese wealthy people are buying property in the United States and raising prices, many American capitals are optimistic about the prospects of preserving the value and increasing the value of agricultural and pastures.

Especially after the release of sales performance data of "Dream Ranch" and "Dream Scenic Area" in 2014, it has stimulated many wealthy people and investment institutions.

This also made many real estate agency companies crazy at the end of the year. After all, the amount involved in such bulk land transactions is quite large, and the commission alone makes people drool!

The Xiaobei family was invited to go on vacation to the "Dream Ranch", which to some extent reflected the good relationship between their family and the Xiao family. This not only increased Xiaobei's media presence a lot, but also increased his popularity in China a lot.

Looking at international football, football sports like Beckham that often makes media headlines after retirement. Not to mention that there are no futures, at least there are no futures!

………

Xiao Bei and his family will not arrive tomorrow. Before that, Xiao Qiang, Xiao Shaoyao and others took the chartered Bombardier Challenger 850 to arrive at the "Fantasy Airport". They will celebrate the festival with Xiao Feng and others at the ranch.

With Xiao Qiang's worth, he could afford a private plane, but he thought he had too few opportunities to use the plane and the cost of maintaining the plane was too wasteful. Therefore, he would rather rent a plane or take an airline flight, but he did not decide to buy a plane.

However, Xiao Feng has promised him that after the production of "Miracle Farm" and "Xiaoshi No. 2 Winery" generate revenue, he will take out $70 million from his private account to buy a Gulfstream g650 for Xiao Qiang as a gift.

After all, the industry of "Minghu Group" in the United States will not be the only one at the moment. In the future, Xiao Qiang will be the main person in charge of the American branch. It is normal to fly around the world, so it is naturally easier to have a private plane.

Xiao Feng has never been stingy with his family.

In addition to Xiao Qiang and Xiao Shaoyao, the family members who arrived at the "Dream Ranch" also included Xiao Moli's family of three, Xiao Xiao and Lin Watanabe, who were about to get married, and a family visit group led by Xiao Jinxu.

Their wedding date is now basically scheduled for the 17th day of the twelfth lunar month. Both parents have decided to hold a wedding in the "Ginkgo Village" first, and then place the second wedding in Tokyo three days later.

After all, both families are famous local families. How can such a wedding not be more grand?

The 17th day of the twelfth lunar month is February 5, 2015 in the New Calendar. Xiao Xiao and Lin Watanabe are busy with work and can take advantage of the Christmas opportunity to go to the "Dream Ranch" for vacation. After all, there is too much work after the beginning of spring, and maybe there will be no honeymoon trip.

Xiao Feng calculated the time and Airbus had already given a notice that the crew training sent by Xiao Feng from China had basically ended, the decoration and fine-tuning of the car had been completed, and it would definitely be delivered before February.

In this way, this A380 will come in handy when Xiao Xiao gets married. It will take off from the "Ginkgo Village" and go directly to Tokyo Haneda Airport, making Xiao Xiao the most glorious bride!

The arrival of Xiao Qiang and others made the castle much more lively, and the old man and the old lady had a lot more smiles. After all, they were still too boring.

For the two old men, things in the world cannot be so perfect. Since the Xiao family has reached this point, there are always some difficulties that need to be overcome.

The elderly naturally hope that they can enjoy the happiness of their children and grandchildren in the "Ginkgo Village", but Yu'er and Nini are still too young, so how many years they can spend with them.

Fortunately, the transportation is developed now and the family's financial conditions are good. Children often fly over from the country to see them every now and then, which makes the elderly very comforted.

The two old men have decided to stay in America for a few more years. When the children all go to elementary school, they will return to Ginkgo Village to accompany their elder brother and sister-in-law. After all, when they are old, they will always return to their roots.

Although Christmas is a festival for foreigners, so many families came to the "Dream Ranch" to make the atmosphere of holidays extremely strong at home. Everyone is busy dressing up the Christmas trees and houses, which is very hot.

In the old man's words, "Let's try the taste of the foreign festival too!" The children who haven't met for a long time were even more happy. The room was filled with "Little Fatty" and white clouds and black soil, which added a lot of joy.

Seeing that the elderly and children were so happy, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao naturally let go of their worries and enjoyed the happiness of being together for the rest of their lives! (~^~)

ps:ps: The first month of the month is about to end, so I will continue to ask my fellow villagers for monthly tickets! Thank you everyone!
Chapter completed!
