Chapter 875 I'm Interested
Los Angeles, Beverly Hills.
Feng Yiping still hugged his daughter dotingly, "Go shopping now, and stay here tonight?" He asked Huang Jingping.
"How many days can I stay here?"
"Probably up to two days,"
"Spending most of the day purchasing, and another day decorating, just to stay for two nights, is this still you?"
Feng Yiping also felt that his proposal was unreliable. From furniture to electrical appliances, there were everything, and there were nothing for daily use.
"Then after this busy period, let's come here for vacation and stay for a while,"
“I think Silicon Valley is great,”
"But, there are big stars here, don't you like to see them?"
"In my mind, the biggest star is you!" Huang Jingping smiled and tapped his chest.
Hey, Feng Yiping loves to hear these words, "In the future, I will say more of these things, you know, I like to hear compliments and compliments, especially from beautiful women,"
"It's still a beauty, it's the little beauty's mother," Huang Jingping said coquettishly, "However, if this is the case, I can talk more about it in the future."
If you live at home for too long, it will easily become the daily routine of old couples. Holding your partner's hand is like holding your left hand with your right hand, without feeling at all. I just have to go out for a walk, and when the environment changes, the mood changes accordingly, and the feeling comes. (Experience of an old driver)
The two of them were wandering around the house with their baby in their arms, flirting and flirting. The two standing in the living room couldn't understand anything and could only guess. "Learn Chinese?" Owen said to Carol.
"It's very necessary," Carol nodded, "Shall we invite a teacher together?"
When I first became a security assistant for these two young Asians, it was a job with a good salary, but it was just a job. Now, as Feng Yiping's net worth is getting richer, this job can become a career Let's do it - this team will definitely grow in the future.
During Feng Yiping's absence in the United States, Owen was sent by the company to receive special training to protect VIPs at a high price. Moreover, the nature of their work determined that they were always by the boss's side. In such a position, there would inevitably be someone To covet is to improve one's overall quality.
After visiting her mansion, Huang Jingping came out with Feng Yiping on her arm, "Which hotel do you want to stay in?"
"That's the one, Four Seasons," Huang Jingping said pointing there.
Tsk, Four Seasons, this is really not good. In Feng Yiping's mind, that hotel is associated with Ma Ling, "I want to live in a high-rise building, or is it the Hilton?"
"I'll listen to you,"
Owen had already opened the front door of the Saab class SUV, and saw a flamboyant red sports car roaring and speeding past the driveway in front of the house. , Accompanied by the piercing sound of brakes, the car actually backed up and stopped in front of the house, is this? Both he and Carol are alert.
The brown-haired girl in the car took off her big sunglasses and greeted Feng Yiping and the others, "Hi!"
"What a coincidence, it's you, hello!" Huang Jingping greeted her with a smile.
This is an acquaintance, that is, Avril Lavigne who sang at the full moon banquet in Amanda back then. She probably has no job today. She is alone and dressed casually.
"Hi Avril," Feng Yiping said with a smile, "Do you remember Amanda? Last year you also listened to the beautiful song sung by this sister,"
Huang Jingping is already chatting with Avril Lavigne. This is the first well-known person in the entertainment industry she has come into contact with after arriving in the United States, and her songs can still be listened to, so she is very concerned about Avril Lavigne's news, "Congratulations, you have won So many prizes,"
"Thank you," Avril Lavigne understood the importance of the two of them, and did not put on airs at all.
"Oh, is there a new album?" Feng Yiping asked.
Huang Jingping gently pulled his hand, huh?
"The new album is being produced and it is estimated that it will not be released until next year,"
This doesn't seem to be a good sign. It stands to reason that the first album is very popular, so we should strike while the iron is hot. Why do you think it takes a year to release the second album?
"Did you know that she has won many awards, even the Grammy's, oh yes, she also won the MTV Music Awards in Asia," Huang Jingping, a fan, said for her favorite singer.
"Congratulations!" Feng Yiping said with a smile.
"The Grammys just got nominated," Lavigne emphasized.
"But, you have won more than 5 nominations," Huang Jingping became a die-hard fan at this time.
More than 5 nominations? That's really awesome.
Feng Yiping probably knows that the Grammy’s status in the music field should be roughly equivalent to the Oscars in the music industry. As a rookie who debuted in 2002, she did not win an award, but it is already very good to be nominated, not to mention winning so many at once. nominate.
In other words, since she is quite famous now, then, "Avril Lavigne, can you sign a few more autographs for us?"
Huang Jingping took his hand again, she knew Feng Yiping's stinginess, and wanted to use it thoroughly for everything.
Feng Yiping is really not stingy. The stars they have within reach are unattainable to some people. Using their autographs as gifts will definitely be very popular.
Avril Lavigne didn't know whether to be happy or speechless, "I'll give you some of my autographed albums,"
That would be nice, "Owen, take pictures for us, mainly for Avril Lavigne, take a few more pictures,"
He pulled Avril involuntarily, "Don't worry, it will never be used for commercial purposes,"
"This is your home?" Avril Lavigne asked after he finished making arrangements.
"It's not a home, it's our house, but we haven't lived in it once,"
"Are you here on vacation?"
"I'm going to stay here for two days about work," the two of them seemed to be able to chat.
Of course, it can't be ruled out that Avril Lavigne deliberately catered to her, and at this moment, she is not as good as she was later.
"You want to work too?"
"No, I'm just coming with him,"
"Then, how about I show you around tomorrow?"
"Okay," Huang Jingping was very happy, "Yiping, is that okay?"
"What's wrong with that? It just so happens that you have a companion tomorrow,"
He just felt that the two of them might not be able to play happily together tomorrow. The girl had kept a distance from Amanda until now. It seemed that at least she was not a person who liked children very much.
…………
San Dimas, Alan Kooning was waiting downstairs in the ACP, and came all the way to hug Feng Yiping, "Welcome Feng, long time no see,"
It's been a long time since they met. The last time they met was more than a year ago, at Amanda's full moon banquet.
"Thank you Alan, I have seen the progress of the company's research, and the current project is very forward-looking,"
"I know Feng, I'm sorry that these technologies can't create value now,"
"That's not yet the right time, isn't it already started?" Feng Yiping said, patting him on the shoulder.
Don't worry, no matter how small my investment is, I'm not just playing around.
"I hope so. He'll be here in about an hour. I'll show you the new car first,"
A few years have passed, and Tzero has also undergone great changes. Finally, it is no longer the engineering machine that Feng Yiping saw for the first time, but finally has the appearance of a high-end sports car. The material is also very elegant.
Feng Yiping sat in and felt it, and asked with a smile, "Have you installed the air conditioner?"
"It was replaced with a lithium battery for a thousand yuan notebook, which is more powerful than the original one, and now all the configurations are complete,"
Thinking of the engineering sample car shown to Feng Yiping last time, Allen felt a little embarrassed, "Do you want to feel it?"
Feng Yiping turned upside down on the seat. The support and inclusiveness of the seat are not bad, although not as good as his Bentley Accord, "No, this honor should be left to Mr. Martin,"
This car was refitted in a short period of time, and the lithium battery of the notebook was used directly. It was not as advanced as Tesla's battery management technology later, and the lithium battery of thousands of notebooks! This stability, Feng Yiping really doesn't trust it, he doesn't want to drive it, and the bottom of his butt suddenly explodes.
"Oh, that should be him," Allen said, watching a car pull into the company.
It was a Ford sports car with a big red mouth, it seemed to be a GT, Feng Yiping was not sure, he had never loved these low sports cars.
Another tall man came down from the top with a beard and looked a bit pedantic, "Hi Martin, this is another shareholder of our company, Yiping, Feng,"
"You can call me Feng, nice to meet you,"
"Hi Feng, Martin Eberhard, nice to meet you," the guy shook hands briefly and forcefully, but he was not paying attention, he was talking to Feng Yiping, but his attention was always on the car next to him.
"Please," Feng Yiping opened the car door smoothly.
He sat in the car, played with all the buttons and switches on the dashboard with admiration, and it was obvious that this is a person who really likes cars.
"How fast can I go?" he asked Alan.
"Just put the pedal to the floor," Allen said with a laugh.
It's not an endurance test anyway.
"See you later," Martin Eberhard said to them, kicking the accelerator, the next moment, the modified Tzero floated away from them with a gust of wind, and the tires rubbed against the runway rapidly, making a very harsh sound The sound, the speed definitely exceeds 120 kilometers per hour.
Seeing the car lap and lap at high speed on the circular runway in front of the company, he deliberately retreated to the door, saying that he was hiding from the sun, but in fact he wanted to stay away from possible dangers. He was a little dizzy, "The acceleration performance is very good. ,"
"This is the natural advantage of electric vehicles. If we can develop a motor that meets the requirements in the future, the acceleration performance will be better without the need for a gearbox,"
Allen looked at Martin on the test drive with great interest. Martin screamed excitedly, and he was also very happy. After all, this is the result of his own research.
After a total of five laps on the driveway, Martin got out of the car and closed the door softly, "It's amazing, perfect, unbelievable..."
He caressed the car with bright eyes, and a string of praise words popped out of his mouth. Feng Yiping really had a sense of seeing the running man after a while, and several of them were words that Captain Deng liked to say.
"As long as you are satisfied, please come inside,"
"This car is perfect, I like it very much," Martin was still very excited in the meeting room, "ACP is amazing, Alan, Feng, you are also amazing, you can develop such an advanced technology,"
Feng Yiping waved his hand, "All the R&D work is done by Allen, it's all due to him,"
"Although we have made some gratifying achievements, we still need to improve and improve on many issues," said Alan, who is the most practical engineer.
Perhaps, a mechanical engineer is more practical than an engineer who writes programs.
"Yes, I feel that the power output is sometimes not very coherent, and the cooperation of the gearbox also has room for improvement. In addition, the cruising range is still a big problem. In the extreme speed state like I just now, it is estimated that commuting to and from get off work will be a problem. said Martin.
This guy is indeed a crazy sports car enthusiast, and he really knows how to do it.
"Charging time is also a problem,"
Feng Yiping was a little speechless, I said Alan, can you stop being so serious?
"I want this car, $100,000? $120,000? $150,000?" He took out his checkbook and prepared to sign a check.
"So, what about our technology?" Allen didn't just want to sell a car.
"Alan, you may not know what a great car you have invented," Martin waved his arms excitedly, "I have been doing research in Silicon Valley for the past few days, do you know how many high-income people usually like to drive cars?" Prius?"
"That's just a hybrid, but our car is pure electric. You can imagine, if we perfect it and put it on the market, what a great initiative it will be? Not only can it improve the environment, no, it can not only improve The environment can easily shake the entire automobile industry, Alan, Feng, let's build a car together," he said excitedly, staring at the two of them.
Allen refused without thinking, "I'm sorry, I only research and develop technology, not involved in the car industry,"
Feng Yiping guessed his answer. In the past few years, from time to time, he has persuaded Alan many times before and after, but this guy just doesn't change his mind.
"Alan, you may not realize the significance of this car," Martin continued to persuade with eloquence.
"I'm sorry, Alan really doesn't have the will, but Martin, I'm very interested in your proposal," Feng Yiping said.
