Chapter 2395 Munich at Night

Standing on the Marion Bridge between the cliffs, the coolness brought by the mountain breeze and the waterfall under the bridge made my mind, which was a little groggy after watching the royal luxury for more than ten minutes, suddenly wake up.

This arch bridge, which creaks when the wooden planks are moved, is a prime place to view Neuschwanstein Castle. Under the blue sky, against the backdrop of the Alps, looking at Neuschwanstein Castle in front of you, you will really feel like you are in a fairy tale. Feel.

Looking up and around, beside Lake Weissensee, Lake Hopfen and Lake Alat, each with its own style, there are green fields of different shades, dotted with small houses with red roofs and white walls... they also look like something from a fairy tale. Natural scenery.

"Isn't it beautiful?" he asked Zhang Yan, who was standing in front of him.

"Beautiful," Zhang Yan looked away from Swan Castle, "Then, buy it?"

"Haha, I can't afford this, mainly because people don't want to sell it," Feng Yiping said with a smile.

"But if it's just a castle, it shouldn't be difficult. Germany seems to be a country of castles, Hannah."

The pretty blond girl next to me quickly said, "Sir,"

This is an employee sent by Gordon, the head of the German market, to Feng Yiping as a tour guide. He is from Munich and graduated from the University of Munich. Therefore, he is also a local and is familiar with Fussen and Swansea Castle.

"How many castles are there in Germany?" Feng Yiping asked.

"Over 14,000," Hannah said immediately.

"14,000 seats?" This number also made Feng Yiping feel a little unbelievable.

Germany's population is only about 80 million, which means that there are more than 1,750 castles for every 10 million people. This data should be much more than the schools, hospitals, and even churches owned by these 10 million people.

Germany's land area is less than 360,000 square kilometers, that is, there are nearly 400 castles for every 10,000 square kilometers. This ratio is indeed quite intoxicating.

Feng Yiping estimated that if the existing castles in Germany, plus those damaged in the war, were used for other purposes, such as building a fortification, then they might be able to build a building comparable to our Great Wall.

"So, if you like it, it's not difficult to buy one," Feng Yiping said. "I estimate that many castles here are definitely cheaper than a house in the capital."

"This is the only one that's beautiful. Even the castle in Disneyland is based on this one," Zhang Yan said.

"This is beautiful, but not very auspicious," Feng Yiping said. "It feels a bit like the Taj Mahal in India."

The owner of Neuschwanstein Castle is Ludwig II, the famous "Mad King" of Bavaria.

I guess many people have never heard of this person, but I guess everyone knows about the other person, and that is the famous Princess Sissi.

If you don’t know about Princess Sissi, you should at least know about Archduke Ferdinand, the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire who triggered World War I. Princess Sissi is Archduke Ferdinand’s aunt and the queen of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Originally, Archduke Ferdinand had no chance to take the throne, but Rudolf, the son of Princess Sissi and Emperor Franz of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, committed suicide with a 17-year-old girl at the age of 30. Their family seemed to have a history of mental illness.

Princess Sissi was Ludwig II's cousin, 8 years older than him. The two often played together when they were young. Then, the prince fell in love with his cousin, and then he never married - during , Princess Sissi, who understood his thoughts, introduced her sister to him, but on the first two days of the wedding, the king willfully regretted the engagement.

Maybe it was such a bitter love that made Ludwig II devote his attention to art and wanted to create his own fairy tale world to escape from the real world. Swansea Castle was the fairy tale world in his dreams. Even the name came from the fairy tale given to him by Princess Sissi. He is a swan sculpture.

After more than ten years of construction, before it was completed, the King, who was declared mentally ill by the National Medical Committee, returned to Munich from the castle, but did not return to the palace. Somehow, he followed Qu Yuan's example and joined Steinberg, located southwest of Munich. Ge Hu was 41 years old.

It is still unclear whether he committed suicide or was killed.

Zhang Yan also remembered Hannah's introduction just now and said with a smile, "Do you still mind this?"

"It's better to be more careful about this aspect," Feng Yiping said, "but what do you think about finding a beautiful and festive castle to hold the wedding?"

"It's so beautiful!" Zhang Yan looked at the castle over there again without saying anything.

Wu Qian trotted over with her mobile phone, "Yiping, Gordon called. We have already negotiated with Infineon over there. The other party hopes that you can attend the signing ceremony,"

"Also, BMW has arranged to meet at 10 noon tomorrow,"

"Okay, let's go back right now," Feng Yiping looked at his watch.

Zhang Yan was already holding Wu Qian's hand, "Let's go,"

You can hear all the words about feelings clearly.

"There's still enough time. How about we take the train back," Feng Yiping said as the group took several carriages and descended the mountain from the path in the forest.

When he was with Zhang Yan, he always thought of trains.

This time, Zhang Yan answered readily, "Okay!"

…………

As the third largest city in Germany, Munich is not only the headquarters of the well-known BMW company, but also the center of Germany's bioengineering, software and service industries. Many multinational companies choose to locate their European headquarters here.

One purpose of Feng Yiping's European trip is to provide support to the Android team.

Several European telecommunications companies, including German telecommunications company T-Mobile, are members that the Open Handset Alliance wants to bring in. Well-known semiconductor companies like Infineon are also on Feng Yiping's list.

He values ​​Infineon, mainly Qimonda, a subsidiary of Infineon, which is the largest memory supplier in Europe and second only to Samsung in the world.

When Feng Yiping achieved the second purpose of his European trip, which was to accompany Zhang Yan on sightseeing tours, the team, including domestic experts, had already had several active and effective exchanges with Infineon.

Drucker also arrived in Germany. Although he was in Berlin, he had already figured out the details of Qimonda's key experts.

However, he is currently facing a very specific problem. Relatively speaking, German experts who are rigid, rigorous and wealthy are more difficult to poach.

These guys were even more unwilling to leave their homes than Drucker himself.

Feng Yiping and Drucker discussed this issue on the phone for a long time, but in the end they did not come up with any results.

Build an office in Munich for those who are worthy of poaching. Not to mention the opinions of local snake Infineon, Feng Yiping’s main purpose of poaching people is to cultivate relevant domestic talents. It is impossible to arrange dozens or dozens of people. Personally, fly all the way from China to Munich and follow them.

What's more, chip R&D, unlike software R&D, is better concentrated together.

However, if it is a last resort, I'm afraid this is the only way to do it.

…………

It was cold outside, but it was so hot indoors that he only had to wear a shirt. Feng Yiping ate Thuringian grilled sausages grilled over charcoal and added with mustard, and drank ice-cold Munich beer. Qi sat across from him, also eating sausages, but Zhang Yan, who was eating white sausage, said, "Do you have to go back tomorrow? We will go to the BMW headquarters tomorrow."

Zhang Yan shook his head, "I'm not interested in those things. I really have to go back tomorrow."

This time, she agreed to come to Europe with Feng Yiping. She originally thought it would only be a few days, but she did not expect that nearly ten days had already passed.

“There are so many things in the store that it’s hard to leave for too long,” she said.

"Today's signing went smoothly?" she asked.

"It's all going well," Feng Yiping knew that it wasn't because Zhang Yan couldn't live without the store, she should still be a little embarrassed.

Zhang Yan was indeed a little embarrassed. Behind Feng Yiping's back, the four of them still kept in touch. She knew that since Man Tingfang opened, even Huang Jingping rarely played with Feng Yiping for ten days.

This time, she stayed with Feng Yiping for ten days. Even though she didn't do anything with Feng Yiping, she felt a little embarrassed.

"I always thought that when my work improved, I would have more time, but now I see that is not the case at all," Feng Yiping said.

"Yes, it is true that I will be busier than before," Zhang Yan said, "but my mood is different. Now I work for myself, and occasionally I can still take a long vacation for myself like now,"

"I mean, I didn't expect that I would be so busy in the past two years. I estimate that I will be even busier next year, so speaking of it, it is really rare for us to see each other a few times a year," Feng Yiping said.

"So, there's something..."

"Hey, this sausage tastes really good, and it goes perfectly with mustard," Zhang Yan said loudly.

Again she tried to change the subject.

But Feng Yiping just pretended not to hear it now, "You know, I am a bit imbecile in some aspects. This may be an excuse. Anyway, you know, I have Jingping and Ma Ling, and two more." child,"

Zhang Yan buried his head in eating the sausage, as if he was trying to reach the level of regular customers: he could suck out the meat from the sausage skin without using a knife or fork.

However, occasionally the knife and fork would hit the plate and make a crisp sound. Every time this happened, she would freeze for a while as if she was frightened.

"I'm definitely not a good man in the traditional sense," Feng Yiping said.

"Are there any good men in a non-traditional sense?" Zhang Yan asked.

Feng Yiping was stunned and said, "Maybe, like me?"

Zhang Yan couldn't help but laugh, "Hehe, you actually have the nerve to boast,"

"Anyway, you know, my current situation is already like this." In front of Zhang Yan, Feng Yiping couldn't let go. However, thanks to the four-party meeting organized by Jin Ling, everything had been made clear, and he also I'm no longer embarrassed.

"And I also have the same bad habits as other men, greed. If I identify them, I won't let go."

"You understand what I mean and what I'm thinking." In view of the current situation, some words are difficult to express clearly in front of Zhang Yan.

"I understand, even if you already have Jingping and Ma Ling, you are still not satisfied," Zhang Yan said.

This is another way of changing the subject.

Feng Yiping just pretended not to hear, "Jingping should have told you that she will not marry me,"

"She should marry you," Zhang Yan still lowered his head.

"I know, but she is very determined on this matter. Maybe," Feng Yiping looked at Zhang Yan, "according to Jingping's wishes, we first...then, I will talk to Jingping, and then Ma Ling, "

"Or, we can do it the other way around. I'll deal with them first, and then..."

Feng Yiping thought about it again and again, not only from the perspective of Huang Jingping and the others, but also from the perspective of the children, first marry one of them, then divorce, then get married... In this way, not only would there be an explanation to the families of both parties, but also there would be a sense of fairness. reasons for attending your child’s activities.

After all, dad is dad, there is no ex-dad.

"I haven't thought about this problem," Zhang Yan, blushing, interrupted Feng Yiping.

Feng Yiping stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand. Zhang Yan struggled a few times, but he couldn't break away because he held it tightly. "Then I think you can think about this problem carefully now,"

"I'm going to sleep," Zhang Yan said.

"Zhang Yan, you know, our time is really tight, and we don't get this opportunity very often. There are some things I want to say to you in person, and I hope to get your answer in person,"

Zhang Yan stood up, still lowering his head, only looking at the plate in front of him, "I'm really going to sleep,"

Feng Yiping looked at her for a while, sighed, and finally let go of Zhang Yan's hand.

Zhang Yan almost overturned the chair he was sitting on and hurriedly walked out the door. Feng Yiping watched her open the door, and then she stopped, "You understand what I'm thinking, right?"

Her voice was not loud, but Feng Yiping heard it very clearly. He was about to jump up, but Zhang Yan turned around and said again, "Can you tell me how greedy you still are? "
