"Don't worry, don't worry. Let me get rid of the things at hand first, and then take the burden off Microsoft. Moreover, I still have to run around some key nodes in order to engage in computer manufacturing."

"We also need to recruit electronic engineers. My current idea is to find a factory first, borrow their tools, and make the samples from the design draft. If they are good, I can then customize the production line.

I don’t have the energy to deal with the complicated work now. Moreover, I still have a headache, which is the matter of international students."

"What's going on? Over there in China."

Rick turned around in the dark, a little puzzled.

“Don’t they need our technical experience?!”

As a native American, Rick also has the inherent pride of Americans in this era. Carter fully understands this, because this kind of pride or arrogance is already reflected in the American passport he holds.

dripping and exquisite

There was a rumor on the Chinese Internet in a previous life that the bottom of the American passport said "No matter where you are in the world, the powerful United States of America is your strong backing. Please remember that you are an American citizen." Compare with the words on the Chinese passport

, and then used by some people with ulterior motives to advocate how the United States respects human rights, has a high national status, etc.

But in fact, this sentence does not exist in the U.S. passport. On the blue passport revised in 1976, the words written are "The Secretary of State of the United States of America hereby requests relevant persons to provide the U.S. citizen/national with travel convenience and when necessary."

Provide legitimate help and protection.”

This sentence is essentially the same as the sentence behind the Chinese passport: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs requests the military and political authorities of various countries to provide passage convenience and necessary assistance to holders of this passport." It is considered a normal diplomatic note, or in other words, necessary protection of expatriates.

But even though the essence is the same, the details directly reveal the deep-rooted characteristics of the United States, or Americans these days. Because, what is written on the American passport is, requirements! It’s requests!

Although it is not a higher-level require, but request, in this context Carter can only understand it as a polite request. Because in the English context, request is usually only understood when used by subordinates to superiors.

A polite, formal request. On the other hand, it's usually a request.

In the diplomatic field where wording is very strict, the Americans all use request with the meaning of request. One can imagine the mentality of these people at this time.

"That's not true. It's just government-sponsored international students who won't choose Yale because the tuition is too expensive. As for self-financing international students, there are no written provisions yet, that is, whether they are allowed to study abroad at their own expense. There is no written law, so now many colleges and universities,

Including college students are waiting and watching."

I understand the mentality of people like Rick, and Carter also knows the current situation in China. Therefore, I don’t feel much offence.

After all, I am a person who grew up after 2000. I have experienced too many things from nothing to something, and my mentality of going from something to Eukart has become much more normal.

"What worries me is that I just told Vice Principal Stevens that I can handle this matter. Although I have not formally mentioned this matter to the school office, think about it, at this stage. I am now

I'm wondering if there is any way to solve it or make a compromise."

"This is difficult. As you said, if you don't even know whether the policies and laws allow studying abroad, you want to do propaganda or whatever. There is no such soil!"

"Forget it, if I have time later, I will go find Mr. Carter or Mr. Woodcock to see if they can help me communicate with China. Go to sleep first."

In the following days, Carter's life once again returned to stability.

In addition to studying in class, I occasionally follow up on cooperation negotiations for the further development of the giant panda museum, and occasionally go to Boston and Cambridge to become familiar with Bartlett, which makes my life fulfilling.

Regarding the expansion of the giant panda pavilion, 34 real estate developers finally chose to participate in the cooperation. The highest investment was 1.2 million US dollars, and the lowest was 700,000 US dollars. In the end, excluding Carter's giant panda pavilion,

Raised over $30 million!

After paying the rent for Carter’s giant panda, after nearly two weeks of discussion on how to use the money, everyone came to the conclusion:

With the giant panda pavilion as the center, it covers an entertainment complex connected by wild animals!

In human terms, we still need to increase the number of animals, but more importantly, we still need to add entertainment facilities. For example, roller coasters, RV campsites, etc.

It is not cost-effective to spend all 30 million US dollars on animals. And if all of it is used to invest in the construction of recreational facilities, it will be somewhat unsatisfactory. The appearance is too ugly, and it will not resonate much with the national tourists attracted by the giant panda museum.

Ever since, under the idea of ​​combining zoos and amusement parks, a new plan was born!

How to plan the venues so that the layout of the entire scenic spot looks coordinated and unified; how to make the recreational facilities pass through the animals' habitats safely without disturbing the animals, so that tourists can feel this kind of feeling while having fun.

A little mood of harmonious coexistence with nature and animals.

A design team composed of architects, designers and even wildlife biologists began to settle in New Haven. Due to the need for expansion and construction, the official opening hours of the Giant Panda Pavilion had to be postponed again.

Even to avoid the impact of construction.

"I remember I used to be envious when I saw rich second-generation people traveling with their dogs on private planes. I didn't expect that."

Carter, who had just taken a vacation, was sitting in the cabin with a panda in his arms, looking sad. He was rubbing his furry panda head. In Yingying's contented squinting eyes, the plane took off from New Haven Airport.

"I didn't know until now that planes can be privately owned. I guess when I go back to China and tell my mother that I have flown on a private plane, she will say that I am bragging and not drafting."

The Chinese dad of the giant panda, listening to Carter's words, just felt that this guy was in Versailles. Even though it was not the first time to fly on this "small plane", he still seemed a little reserved, with some curiosity and eagerness to try.

"What's the matter? Let alone small planes like the Gulfstream. Even large planes like Boeing and Airbus can be privately owned. Let's not talk about this. In the future, more and more people in China will own planes.

of."

After caressing the giant panda wantonly, Carter turned his gaze to the opposite side of him, hugging another giant panda tightly, and hugging Anna happily.

"Sister, Melis is going to college in the second half of the year. Are you sure you don't want to go with her? I'm a little worried about her. I heard from Jenny that all the universities she is applying for are in Los Angeles. No one is watching, and I'm afraid.

She doesn't stay at school for less than three days a week."

"I asked you why you came back as soon as you had a holiday this year and you still had to call me up. Why didn't you give up? It will be four years soon, and the three-year agreement back then has passed. You talk."
