On the streets of Lanfang on February 14, colorful flags were fluttering and the sun was shining in the sky.
February is the coolest time of the year. The temperature is over 20 degrees, which is very suitable for various public activities. If you can watch Gu Kun's wedding ceremony, you will definitely not miss it.
Early in the morning, from Lanfang Port Pier to Zhaoming Palace, especially the square in front of Zhaoming Palace, it was crowded with people. There were probably hundreds of thousands of people in the whole journey.
The route for welcoming the bride was planned and reported in advance. Gu Kun himself did not buy a luxurious enough manor on the main island of Lanfang, at least not comparable to Zhaoming Palace. Therefore, for the sake of the groom's dignity, the designer who organized the wedding finally proposed
He came up with a plan, that is, Gu Kun set off from his yacht "Zhu Sen" and went to Zhaoming Palace to welcome his bride.
After the wedding, there is no need to think about picking up the girl back to the yacht. Just stay in the bridal chamber in the East Palace of Zhaoming Palace that night. Because he is the princess who is getting married, doing this does not violate etiquette. It is equivalent to directly admitting that Gu Kun has entered the East Palace.
The elders of the Gu family have no more people, so this is the most suitable. The day after the wedding, they will take Zhu Youran back to the "Zhu Sen", even if they are not only returning to the groom's house, but also setting sail for their honeymoon.
For such a major event, security work is of course very important, and it is not just for show.
Along the way, 80% of Lanfang's police force, most of the royal guards, and security guards from Blackwater Security Company were transferred to maintain order - the first two units were each about the size of a company, and Blackwater Security
The company has slightly more people, but only about 200 people have been dispatched. Basically, all the people who can be dispatched have been dispatched.
It is a bit difficult for four hundred people to maintain order among hundreds of thousands of onlookers. Calculating the winding journey of more than ten kilometers from the pier to the palace, only 20 people can be allocated to each side of each kilometer, which is fifty meters.
There was only one person to maintain order, which was obviously a bit stretched - each of them had to face about one or two hundred onlookers, not counting the people in the Zhaoming Palace Square at the end.
Therefore, the Lanfang Navy and Coast Guard, and even the rotational seafarers from some shipping companies under the names of Gu Kun and Sa Wuyang, also selected skilled seamen to come and play a cameo role to maintain order. Together, they could barely increase the security force to over a thousand people.
.
In addition, because Gu Kun is an old friend of the Chinese people, Lanfang has been relatively friendly to China in recent years. In order to fear that the bulldogs will cause damage, some Chinese employees who are stationed at Lanfang Airport on business trips all year round also come to work as volunteers without being paid.
There were about two to three hundred people in total to help maintain order.
These people seem to be more capable and agile. They are usually responsible for maintaining the radar station of Lanfang International Airport and providing air control services on the neighboring island. Lanfang does not have enough professional high-end radar operating talents, so back then
After China delivered the radar station as free assistance, it also provided a full set of after-sales services for maintenance operations.
So far, the Lanfang people have not spent a penny on staff wages for airport air traffic control. Equipment donors send technical support personnel for free as volunteers. Gu Kun has always taken advantage of these small advantages.
In addition to other guides and service personnel, free drink points should be set up on the streets for onlookers to cool off, just like when a marathon is held, there should be booths for people to drink herbal tea on the sidelines. All in all, at least we have been hired today.
Thousands of people served the onlookers at Gu Kun's wedding. (Only those who served the onlookers, not counting those inside the venue)
…
"Come on, come on, it must be on these helicopters, right? This is the German guy's Airbus ec-135! The sound is so nice!"
"Bullshit! How could Mr. Gu marry the princess in such a shabby helicopter that costs millions of dollars apiece? Is there any dignity left? This plane is just to clear the way and patrol."
Many people in the crowd were very excited. Every time a vehicle came out of the pier, the crowd would cheer and support. It was rumored that Gu Kun was coming, but it turned out that it was just a mistake. They underestimated Gu Kun's pomp.
From about eight o'clock in the morning until nearly ten o'clock, the public finally had accurate information.
"Another convoy has come down from the pier! It's from the 'Jussen'. A group of Rolls-Royce street sweepers, Mercedes-Benz Unimog armored vehicles, and a double-jointed Gold Maybach are also here! I
Let’s just say that Mr. Gu is still mature. In this kind of occasion, you should take a car or learn how to welcome the bride by helicopter."
To be honest, taking a helicopter is actually not bad. However, the helicopters in this world are luxurious enough and more expensive than Gu Kun's Maybach. It is really inconvenient to customize, so the ordinary billionaires' ostentation rules come to Gu Kun.
It has failed.
"I never get tired of seeing it several times. The only luxury car worth 100 million euros is the only one in the world. It's really a blessing to see it more than once."
"Who says it's not? Let alone a 100 million euro pure gold car. Even if it's not pure gold, it's not sold on the market now. I heard that Mr. Gu's car is still the only Maybach on the planet -
—
There is at least a year difference between the mass production of Maybach and the independent design of prototypes. Gu Ye's car was obtained before the Olympic Games last year, almost during the summer vacation. I heard that the data officially released by Maybach is the first Maybach to be officially mass-produced.
, it only went offline on May 1st this year, two and a half months away.”
Among the crowd of onlookers, heated discussions like this were happening one after another. The following words were obviously said by a middle-class person who knew a little bit about aristocratic style and big-name trends among the common people. The poor people couldn't say it at all.
Unfortunately, the so-called middle class's vision and experience were soon refreshed and slapped in the face.
Because not long after they vowed that "the industry news said that the Maybach will be officially launched on May 1st," five more cars followed Gu Kun's double gold Maybach! They were all Maybachs! They just followed the car a little bit.
Yuan, I didn’t notice it at first glance and thought it was the meaner Luo Luo.
The styles of the next five cars are slightly different from Gu Kun's car, and they obviously don't dare to go too far to be exactly the same as Gu Kun's car.
What's more important is that those cars are just ordinary gold-plated dual-color car paint, and the color is not the same as pure gold, but with a bit of champagne and rose gold. For that kind of low-key and restrained nobility, they also undergo extreme matte treatment.
, "Smooth but never specular reflection".
Everyone was stunned for a moment, but then they felt relieved and understood: How can a Chinese wedding party only come with a wedding car and use tool trucks for the rest?
For good luck, the core fleet must have six or eight vehicles, right? In addition, only camera vehicles, security vehicles, and tool vehicles are available.
Therefore, the core of Gu Kun's fleet consists of six Maybachs, one with double gold and five without gold. These six cars are all decorated with flowers, wild goose feathers, peacock feathers, and bird of paradise tail feathers. As for the other
The main difference between the outer Luo Luo tool carts is that they are not decorated with flowers and feathers.
The poor people watching on the roadside all retorted at the so-called "informed people" who were showing off their knowledge: "Tsk! They also said that there is only one Maybach in the world. How can you say that Mr. Gu has so many? He was just bragging and was slapped in the face. I see.
The so-called nobility of Maybach cannot be shown off in front of Mr. Gu. The Germans will have to pay whatever Mr. Gu asks! How can there be only one wedding car!"
People familiar with the matter from the middle class were furious: "This... this is definitely not an official sale, it is a sample for trial production of the production line! Anyway, there are regulations on the market that it has not been put on sale!"
After a short period of noise, no one took it seriously. After all, this unprecedented event is rare in a hundred years. Who has time to argue? Of course, we must cherish every second as much as possible, greedily increase our knowledge, and wish we could just watch it directly.
The grand occasion of arrival is imprinted on the eyeballs.
The convoy drove very slowly. This was the first time Gu Kun had driven so slowly in public in more than half a year since he bought a new car. This also gave onlookers a better chance to enjoy themselves.
Anyone who has ever been married knows that the wedding convoy sometimes drives very slowly just to have a good time, especially if the couple does not live far enough away and some of them go out for a detour.
Normally, the car would pass by in a flash, and the public would not have the chance to look at every detail as carefully as now.
Some elderly people who still retained their Lanfang nationality and had some history and culture also had tears in their eyes when they looked at the scene in front of them:
"I think back when we first broke away from the Bretons, we were really poor. Except for a few teachers, plantation owners and gentry, the rest were almost fishermen. It has been 17 years, 17 years since the founding of the country, and we have developed to this day.
In this way, we are still making money from foreigners. We Lanfang people never thought that we could have such a arrogant life. Lanfang is very lucky to have Mr. Gu running the country."
No matter how slow you drive, the onlookers will eventually come to an end. The convoy drove for 40 minutes on the 10-kilometer road, basically crawling forward at four or five meters per second, and finally arrived at the square in front of Zhaoming Palace at an auspicious time.
After Gu Kun arrived at the square, he confirmed that there were human wall guards on both sides, and then ordered to open the sunroof of his double-jointed Golden Maybach, raise the seat, and stick his upper body out of the sunroof, just like in a military parade, facing the
People in the square waved: "Hello everyone, thank you for your hard work."
The car stopped in front of the red carpet, and a bodyguard came over and opened the door. The car was very high, a full two meters, so the bodyguard didn't even have to bend down when he opened the door, because bending down would make the door handle uncomfortable.
The car door opened, and there was an electric step down next to it. There was also an ancient Ming Dynasty horse dismounting block placed on the red carpet. Gu Kun was very kind. After all, modern times are already a civilized society, and he didn't let a slave come over and kneel on the ground.
Put your hands on the ground and let him step on his back to dismount.
Who makes him the spiritual leader in the field of abolition of slavery in Southeast Asia? He must lead by example, adhere to ancient etiquette and have a certain temper.
He stepped steadily on the dismounting pier in an approachable manner, waving to the crowd while walking slowly into Zhaoming Palace, with a graceful and graceful pace.
Two minutes later, he and Zhu Youdong appeared on the tower at the main entrance of Zhaoming Palace. The front of the tower was covered with thick bulletproof glass, allowing Gu Kun to safely address the people and announce some good news that was celebrated by the whole world.
