【817】 China Speed
Because Black Miracle unexpectedly accepted Chen Yang, some of the precautions Xiao Feng had taken before were not useful. The Chinese riders who came to apply for the job next could only act as ordinary employees. In the future, they could only get a better position after more horse racing in the racecourse.
Chen Yang couldn't wait to move out of Maple Leaf Castle that day. In his words, he wanted to spend time with Black Miracle day and night so that he could better cultivate feelings and tacit understanding.
Xue Lihua was a little dissatisfied with Chen Yang's workaholic performance, and nagged him a few words to let Chen Yang go back to the castle to have dinner when he had time, or he would often bring the snacks and dishes he made to the horse farm.
When Chen Yang moved into the Dream Ranch, Xiao Feng was the first time he saw a man who loved horses. Chen Yang spent almost 24 hours a day and slept next to the stable.
Now, Chen Yang is walking around with a black miracle. The scene of speeding up on the horse road has become a new view of the pasture, and has attracted the attention of many cowboys.
Black Miracle This guy is also crazy. He is even more excited when the cowboys watch. His running speed keeps breaking his own records, making Xiao Feng’s eyes shine!
The little guy Yu'er even regarded Uncle Chen Yang, who was flying freely on the horse's back, as an idol, clapped his hands to cheer him up, and came to the horse farm to see it almost every day.
Xiao Feng has heard a Western proverb that only paranoids can succeed. Although it is not necessarily 100% correct, it also has some truth.
Since Chen Yang has started to work, the Fantasy Racecourse has officially started. In addition to the competition jockey Chen Yang and trainer Charlie, the Racecourse has just recruited a veterinarian and a handyman, which is specially used to take care of the daily life of Black Miracle.
From then on, this four-person team will serve Black Miracle. Of course, if Black Miracle becomes famous in the American horse racing industry in the future, the team will be even larger.
In the United States, champion horses are like superstars in the entertainment industry, with advertisements, endorsements, and media access. They need a complete team to operate.
Xiao Feng naturally doesn’t have to participate in the specific affairs in person. As the owner of the horse, he only needs to control the general direction of the Black Miracle!
The horse farm has officially started. In the past few days, Xu Mengyao, as the executive president of Dream Ranch, checked out various bills like flowing water and purchased a large number of professional equipment.
At this time, Xiao Feng realized that training for pure-blood horse racing is not easy and simple. People can only see the scenery after winning the horse racing, but they cannot see the efforts and efforts behind it.
Putting aside the previous investment, from now on to the Black Miracle being able to officially board the track, the Fantasy Racecourse will cost at least more than $500,000 on it, including equipment, personnel salary, forage, etc.
Among them, the special transport truck specially used for transporting horse racing has been specially modified, including air conditioning, shower equipment and employee lounges, which is simply a small mobile castle. For this special modified vehicle, Fantasy Ranch requires a fee of 200,000 US dollars, which is so high that it is amazing!
Any accident happens, these hundreds of thousands of dollars will be wasted. No insurance company will even be willing to underwrite these extremely risky horse racing horses.
It can be seen from this that the high-level pure-blooded horse racing is really hard to play with, and only super rich people with strong risk resistance can afford to play this kind of game made with US dollars.
The first time Xiao Feng heard about the expensive and generous horse racing was during his college years. At that time, he saw some relevant information in football reports.
That's right, it's on football reports!
English football giant Manchester United godfather Ferguson once bought a pureblood horse called Gibraltar Rock with Manchester United's major shareholder, and won millions of pounds in the English horse racing world.
In 2003, Gibraltar Rock retired from the competitive sense. But it did not stop creating value because it can bring $130,000 in profits to the owners every time it is bred, and it may last for 15 years!
For the breeding rights of Gibraltar Rock, the old Lord sued the two Manchester United shareholders in Dublin court. The matter caused a lot of controversy, which eventually triggered changes in Manchester United's shares, resulting in the American Glazer family taking over Manchester United.
This incident became a hot news in the global sports and economic circles at that time. Xiao Feng didn’t remember other details very clearly. The only thing he remembered was that the price of Gibraltar Rock was at least 80,000 pounds per breeding!
At that time, Xiao Feng never thought that one day he would also get involved in this kind of rich game, and invested hundreds of thousands of dollars for a future that was not yet certain!
During the establishment of the Black Miracle team, Old Bergen's rich experience and connections played a very positive role, otherwise the Fantasy Horse Racecourse would not be so smooth.
Xiao Feng kept all this in his heart. He had accepted this favor and had to express his chances in the future!

The dream horse farm gradually got on track in just a few days. In the dream scenic area separated by a wall, the progress of construction was greatly beyond the expectations of the Americans!
After October, Marco Engineering Company, which obtained the construction qualification for the small dock of the Dream Scenic Scenic Spot and the lakeside landscape road project, led the engineering team to the Dream Scenic Site construction site.
But what made the Americans collapse was that the Huaxia Construction Construction Team, which moved in at the same time, quickly showed their construction speed and high fighting spirit that were beyond their reach!
Compared with the hardworking Chinese workers, American industrial workers have been spoiled by the trade unions. They emphasize more on their own rights, labor protection, etc., without the enthusiasm for contribution.
In order to speed up the construction period, the construction team of Huaxia Construction carried out shifts, working continuously for 12 hours every day from 7 am to 7 pm, and the progress of the process was extremely fast.
However, American workers strictly follow the 8-hour working system every day. During the work process, most of their homework relies on machinery and tools, which makes people anxious and angry.
Previously, Allen also felt that the behavior of American construction workers was an advanced performance of having sufficient professional and technical content and mastering a large number of skills. However, after comparing it with Chinese construction workers, he realized that the gap between the two was widening.
It is true that when the construction team of Huaxia Construction seems to be a little behind in the use of various construction machinery, but it has more enthusiasm.
To use an image metaphor, American workers are like sports cars with cool shells, but Chinese workers are sturdy and durable pickup trucks, and the differences in practicality are clear at a glance!
Allen heard from his father and grandfather that construction workers in America were not like this before, but the increasingly perfect trade union protection laws made it impossible for workers and investors to control the construction methods independently.
For example, even if Marko Engineering Company discusses overtime with workers, Allen dares not act rashly, because you don’t know if the union guys will get angry and take Marko to court.
So, seeing the construction progress of Huaxia Construction Engineering is getting faster and faster, Allen can only sigh. No wonder industry insiders say that Huaxia is currently the largest construction site in the world. Just looking at the technical level and fighting spirit shown by the Huaxia Construction Engineering Construction Team, you can see a clue that China's rise is unstoppable!

Xiao Dasong, Xiao Dabai, who are responsible for the construction of Jinghu Scenic Area, and Ouyang Ming, who is in charge of the North American business department of Huaxia Construction, will not take into account the sour mood of their American peers. They are immersed in the joy of their rapid development of their careers.
Needless to say, Ouyang Ming, the North American business unit, which was already on the verge of closure, got a chance to breathe after obtaining the project of Menghan Scenic Area.
The project cost of 300 million US dollars can actually bring a profit of 40 million US dollars to Huaxia Construction, so this time the project is more symbolic!
The total investment of Dream Scenic Area will reach an astonishing US$3 billion, which means that in the next four or five years, China Construction Engineering North America Division will not worry about no projects.
In addition, being able to establish a good interactive relationship with Jinghu Group, especially Xiao Feng, is undoubtedly the biggest gain for Ouyang Ming.
Xiao Dasong is a graduate of Nanzhao College. Xiao Dabo graduated from Chuncheng Science and Technology. They are both serious undergraduates. After graduation, they returned to Ginkgo Village and entered Jinghu Ranch.
Although there is a huge gap between working in cowboys and the information engineering they learn in Chinese, they still work very seriously. After all, it is not easy for graduates from high-level undergraduate colleges to find a job these days.
When Jinghu Group selected cowboys to the United States, the two got a monthly salary of more than 20,000rmb due to their education and background issues, which made them very happy.
Now, Xiao Feng once again gave them the opportunity to be responsible for the construction project of the fantasy scenic area, the intention of cultivating them is very obvious.
The two of them also cherished this opportunity very much. They basically had food and accommodation on the construction site, and there was no concept of a rest day. Their dedicated spirit amazes the employees of Huaxia Construction Engineering.
Under the leadership of three leaders with strong career aspirations, the construction of the Dream Scenic Area entered a fast-moving channel from the beginning, and the lively construction site was able to infect the surrounding people.
Soon, the dream scenic spot started from its inception to its first prototype. In less than a month, a desolate pasture began to have the necessary elements of a scenic spot, and the changes were so great!
Especially for modern Americans who have rarely experienced the period of great construction, China's speed is indeed a miracle that exists in the legend. (To be continued...)
