Earth Invasion

Chapter 426
SCO Greater China Capital, BJ.

In the interstellar era, this super city with a population of tens of millions has greatly reduced its population due to the shift of industrial center of gravity and the stripping of functions.After the construction of the first phase of the space metropolis was completed, in the re-planning of the ground, this super city that was once criticized as unsuitable for human habitation finally took off the hat of congestion.Then after a bit of re-building that seemed to be erased and redrawn, the city was finally rejuvenated again.

In the process of rebuilding the entire city, architects from all over the world wanted to put their works on the political center of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and the decision-making department, who was not very interested in architectural art and did not understand it, agreed to this. After looking at all kinds of modern and artistic schemes, a rigid, purely functional road traffic plan was used to split the entire BJ city into various small pieces.This disappointed those architects who fantasized about turning BJ into a perfect fusion of various schools of architecture.This BJ has become an exhibition hall of various buildings, but instead of being placed on a beautiful stand, it is locked in a cage.

Wangfujing Street, of course, this Wangfujing Street is still called that name, you will never think of the original Wangfujing Street at first glance.The current Wangfujing Street seems to be built on a wave.White, light blue, and various curved buildings make the entire Wangfujing Street change from the original state of boiling to a soothing and relaxed posture.The application of new building materials with high plasticity and strength, such as titanium alloy and carbon nanotubes, allows architects to build out the ideas in their minds at will.These are impossible in the reinforced concrete era, and building mechanics and material science firmly bind people's imagination.It is absolutely impossible to have such a building group that completely subverts people's general physical impression visually.

The street is still full of people.In the SCO Greater China region, after people's food, clothing, housing and transportation have been distributed according to their needs, the commercial street has become a historical term.The current function of Wangfujing Street is a place where people choose their share of luxury goods.Clothing, jewelry, handicrafts, bags, watches, perfumes and other tasteful products from all over the world have their own stores here, just to allow people in Greater China to save themselves every month The luxury points allocated to these people allow them to exchange for large quantities of manufactured goods, space minerals and even spaceships.

And this morning, a Givenchy store in the middle of the street welcomed two guests.

In this kind of luxury women's clothing store, men and women often come together.Although basically they all share their own share of luxury goods together, but women want to please themselves, and no men come with them, and they basically quarrel.

These two are the first pair of guests today, and the clerks will seat them and serve two cups of lemon tea.Luxury stores sell not only products, but also an atmosphere.And for the share of luxury goods on the people of these Greater China regions.Be it Givenchy or Chanel, they all racked their brains to share more.

A share of luxury is something like a bonus.In the SCO Greater China region, as long as there is a job, in addition to the monthly personal security, there is also a share of luxury consumption.Of course, if you change your luxury goods every month, you will also change some gadgets. Therefore, many people choose to save their share of luxury goods for use.

Since it is a luxury, it is something whose symbolic function is far greater than its actual function.For example, a top hand-crafted fuel sports car is far behind the space shuttles distributed to every family in Greater China in terms of practicality and technical level.But every family has a shuttle, but this kind of limited-edition sports car may not have many families who will save a family's share of luxury goods for several years to exchange for that thing.

All in all, clothing, perfume, jewelry, leather goods, and precious woodware are considered luxury goods with relatively good practicality.

But not all luxury brands like this situation.Donna Karen, a top women's clothing brand, publicly said that luxury should not be enjoyed by everyone.Only some people can enjoy things can be said to be luxury goods.And this practice in the Greater China region is actually tantamount to making luxury goods available to everyone.Such a luxury has lost its meaning.So, Donna Karen decided not to set up his business in Greater China.

Other luxury brands take this very seriously, but for the sake of those luxury shares, these luxury brands still jumped into it without hesitation.

The luxury industry is one of the industries with the highest labor density in Greater China.A laborer serves only a few people every day, and this ratio is only lower than that of a surgeon.A large number of people are needed only in industries that use a large number of humanoid puppets, which have a particularly high demand for observation and observation.

After all, it is still impossible for the puppets to understand what aesthetics is.

Therefore, it is the duty of every luxury store employee to observe every guest who comes.

For the two customers who came today, the men looked a little handsome, but they were just handsome. Thanks to the SCO's genetic optimization policy, there were almost no ugly people.But there was something irritating about this man.Although the shopping guide lady didn't know why, she instinctively felt that this person was a bit uncomfortable.

Compared with male customers, female customers look much better.

Sophisticated, this is how this guest feels.There was a refinement and elegance about this guest that ran deep into his bones.This is something she has never felt with other guests.Although the clothes she was wearing were ordinary women's clothes, but when she was wearing them, people couldn't help but wonder what brand of clothes they were.

It is relatively rare for such a person to add points to clothes.

It's just that this guest wears a large decorative transparent eye, which covers half of her face, so that people can't see her face.Moreover, the pink hair looks a little different from the usual bleached hair.

There seems to be a layer of fluorescent light on it.

She suddenly remembered that there is fluorescence, and this pure color starts from the root of the hair. Isn't this a characteristic of Assyrians?

Unexpectedly, this unattractive man actually has a girlfriend who is of mixed race.Oh no!There is a simple ring on the ring finger of this female guest, so they are husband and wife? !

This is of course Zhang Mai and An.And An put on the single-transparent decorative glasses to prevent himself from being recognized.Fortunately, there are too many people who dye their hair randomly, and Ann's long pink hair is nothing.

Yesterday's family dinner almost turned the two of them over. What Shen Jiufang said was enough for An to digest for a while.Therefore, it is useless to rush to get angry.In order to let An's mind think of something else, Zhang Mai decided to suspend his official duties and start his own private trip.

Anyway, the rest of the official Assyrian visiting group can handle it. There is nothing wrong with Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Khadra playing rubber stamps.

Now that I'm back, it's a must to go home and have a look.But it would be hilarious to have Ann go back in full queen dress.Zhang Mai didn't want his home to be filled with guns and short guns from the media again, so he decided to sneak back quietly with Ann.It is necessary to get a suit of earthen clothes.

The clothes on An's body were borrowed from the hotel staff. Before returning to Earth, both An and Zhang Mai forgot to prepare clothes in the style of Earth people because of the rush.Therefore, these luxury clothing stores in Zhang Mailai today are considered as a gift, and the second is to replace the useless luxury shares in his personal account!

Since he became an adult, he hasn't used all the luxury shares once, so even if he changes Givenchy from head to toe, he can still change it.

After half an hour, Zhang Mai regretted it.He still has a lot of luxury goods left, but after An changed into this set of women's clothing, the rate of return was too high.Even on the fast maglev leaving BJ, Ann wearing big glasses would still be saluted by people.

Zhang Mai knew that he had made a mistake. He underestimated people's curiosity too much, and he didn't think carefully about the chances of people in China seeing the Assyrians.

After coming down from the vacuum tube magnetic levitation, the situation of being saluted by people has improved a lot.After all, the SCO Greater China region is a very fast-paced society. People will look at beauties on the maglev train, but after getting off, people will rush to their own places, and no one has the heart to focus on the beauties.

Zhang Mai's home is not in a big city, and there is no direct vacuum tube maglev train.For those small cities scattered all over the world, general low-altitude aviation is the fastest way of public transportation.

A large airbus powered by a combination of microwave, solar energy and metal hydrogen batteries waved its six huge rotors against the traffic tower.This kind of flying old hen with a capacity of about 6 passengers has two lift components of rotor drive and non-propellant booster. It is the most flexible way of travel between small cities in the Greater China region of the SCO.

This kind of Zhangmai's seemingly ordinary things made An full of curiosity.A few days ago, when she visited and toured, there was a special convoy, and she was not able to have close contact with the general daily life of the SCO Greater China. This time, she really realized what the SCO Greater China is like. exist.

quick!very fast!This is Ann's first feeling.Even a city that looks lazy is actually very fast in terms of rhythm.It seems that people's schedules are always full.

Another sense brought about by such a fast pace is convergence and standards.People show their individuality in some small places, but when it comes to efficiency, everyone unanimously chooses efficiency.This made An Qi uncomfortable.

I have to get used to it, An concealed and warned himself.This kind of high efficiency and convergence is an essential stage if we want to become as strong as the SCO.
