Chapter 1229: Super mansion completed

   Chapter 1229 The completion of the super mansion

   January 1, 2009, the first day of the new year.

  The long-awaited 3G license has finally been issued, and the three domestic telecom operators have each obtained a license.

  The media rushed to report, calling the new year the first year of 3G, and placed high expectations on new technologies and new networks.

   As for the mobile Internet proposed by Xia Jingxing at the Android China press conference, although it has also attracted the attention and expectations of Internet practitioners, it will take until 2010 to achieve rapid development.

   This is because the infrastructure must be built before there will be subsequent applications.

The principle of    is like installing the water pipe first, and then the tap water will flow out.

   But Android China is not discouraged by the slow development of China's 3G network. While recruiting a lot of people, it is organizing the first Android China Developer Conference.

   In any case, the basic conditions required for the development of the mobile Internet have all been matured, and then it is the turn of Android China to show its talents.

  Xia Jingxing took a private jet to the United States after acquiring Pixel Software and reorganizing it into Shushan Studio, a subsidiary of domestic games.

   At this time, it is the Christmas holiday, and the whole United States is immersed in the joy of the holiday.

  Palo Alto is no exception. As soon as Xia Jingxing arrived home, he saw the twinkling Christmas tree in the yard, and two Santa Clauses, one big and one small, under the tree.

  Xia Jingxing looked at the tube top Christmas skirt that Kristina was wearing, and instantly thought of many inappropriate images.

   A good Christmas dress, how could it be simplified like this.

   But then again, Xia Jingxing was quite satisfied with this Christmas present.

The two hadn't seen each other for two or three months. At this time, the moment they met, it was like a pile of dry firewood, burning at one point. They hugged and kissed for two minutes before they separated. Then Xia Jingxing picked up Kristina and walked towards him Walking inside the house, it seems that I can't wait to open the gift.

   Christina put her arms around Xia Jingxing's neck and looked at Xia Jingxing tenderly.

  Xia Zerui, who was forgotten in place, bit his fingers and stared blankly at his parents, wondering what they were doing.

   It wasn't until the figures of the two of them walked away and completely disappeared behind the door that he reacted and began to cry.

   As soon as she heard her son's cry, Kristina immediately jumped down from Xia Jingxing's arms, and after running out the door, she saw the oil tow bottle running towards her crying, and she was a little dumbfounded.

He had no choice but to squat down and open his arms, picked up his son, wiped his tears and comforted him: "Enoch, you are already a one and a half year old, don't cry at every turn, mom is playing with you. What about the game?"

  Xia Jingxing was a little embarrassed, he wanted to hug his son, but the little guy gave him a stern look, then turned his head and ignored his father.

  Xia Jingxing smiled, presumably the little guy saw the whole process of his mother being "robbed" and regarded him as a bad guy.

  Christina coaxed the child for a while, and finally coaxed the child to the dollhouse, where the servants watched.

   She pulled away and walked back to the living room. Seeing that Xia Jingxing was about to pounce again, she hurriedly pushed her hand to stop, "Go to sleep at night, otherwise he will have to find his mother again later."

  Xia Jingxing immediately spread his hands in dismay, since he had this little thing, it was inconvenient to do anything.

   He misses the old days a little, when he could play happily no matter when and where he was.

   "Forget it, I'll go and accompany the child. Seeing how he looks like, I'm guessing he still treats me as a bad guy."

   Watching Xia Jing walk to the toy room, the corners of Christina's mouth rose slightly, knowing that she owed her children, but as for herself, she didn't care much about it anymore.

   The next day.

  Xia Jingxing, Christina and Xia Zerui's family came to the south of Palo Alto, near the barren hills of Los Altos.

   To be precise, this piece of land is no longer a barren mountain.

   After more than two years of construction and renovation, the topography of the barren hills has been completely changed.

  A flat concrete road leads directly to the top of the mountain, with tall and straight palm trees planted on both sides of the road.

   When the car was halfway up the mountain, a tall fence appeared, and the gate was in the center of the fence.

   After passing through the gate, the car slowly stopped, Xia Jingxing and Kristina got out of the car, holding their son's hand each, and looked at the completed mansion as they walked.

   fountains, outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts, basketball courts, golf courses, helipads and other facilities are distributed around, surrounding the main building in the center.

In the outer circle of various living facilities, various flowers and trees such as orange trees, lemon trees, maples, oaks, pine trees and redwoods are planted. If you look up from the foot of the mountain, you will think it is a dense forest. to the presence of the building.

  From the sky, the whole manor looks like a bird's nest, with a low-lying area in the middle, with various buildings distributed, and the outer area is strictly blocked by flowers, plants and trees.

   "Little Duck~"

   Xia Zerui suddenly pointed to the artificial lake in the distance and said.

  Christina glanced in the direction of her son's finger and found that it was a few swans playing in the water, and she couldn't help laughing.

   In order to build this artificial lake, a lot of effort was spent. Since there are no springs in the mountains, water needs to be diverted from other places, which is very labor-intensive and labor-intensive.

   A family of three was admiring the surrounding scenery when they suddenly heard the roar of a car engine behind them.

  Xia Jingxing turned his head and found that it was Bai Lizhong.

  After the other party parked the car, he got out of the car and ran towards him without stopping, shouting while running, "Daren, Christina, I'm very sorry, there is a traffic jam on the road, I'm a few minutes late."

   Looking at Bei Li who was running out of breath, Xia Jingxing waved his hand, indicating that it would not be in the way.

   After a few simple greetings, Bai Lizhong introduced the house to Xia Jingxing and Kristina with a smile.

  This house or manor covers an area of ​​more than 50 acres, or about 203,000 square meters.

   Now Xia Jingxing and the others are located in Qianshan, covering an area of ​​about 80,000 square meters.

   In such a large area, several residential buildings cover an area of ​​only 4,000 square meters, and the rest of the plots have been built into various supporting facilities, such as artificial lakes, outdoor sports areas, outdoor recreation areas, and so on.

  The back mountain covers an area of ​​more than 120,000 square meters, with private gardens, organic farms, horse farms and so on.

  Under the careful design of Bailey, not an inch of land was wasted.

   Xia Jingxing was quite satisfied with this. After all, this land was purchased for more than 90 million US dollars. Of course, all of it had to be used. It would be a waste to leave it vacant.

   In addition, in order to build this super mansion and various supporting facilities, Xia Jingxing also invested 120 million US dollars one after another.

   Most of this money was spent on terrain modification and supporting facilities, such as leveling mountains, building artificial lakes, covering horse farms, and so on.

  The land plus construction, decoration and other expenses, the total housing investment reached 218 million US dollars, which exceeded the budget by nearly 20 million US dollars.

   Costs a lot of money!

   But when Xia Jingxing saw the house and the surrounding scenery, he was very satisfied and felt that the flowers were worth it.

   After all, you get what you get for what you pay for. To do so many projects, a lot of spending is essential.

   From the gate at the fence to the main villa building, there is a distance of two or three hundred meters. Before Xia Zerui entered the villa, he couldn't walk, and began to shout for a hug.

  Xia Jingxing laughed, the bear child is still so young, don't get lost at home in the future.

   He gently picked up his son, then quickened his pace, and followed Bei Lizhong to the gate of the villa.

   At this moment, Bei Lizhong took out three button-like things from his pocket and handed them to Xia Jingxing and Kristina.

   The two looked at each other and remembered the scenes of visiting Gates' Xanadu 2.0 a few years ago.

   Sure enough, as soon as a few people approached, the villa door opened automatically.

   When they walked through the gate and entered the room, the lights were automatically turned on, and there was soothing music in their ears.

   "Is this the Internet of Things technology?" Xia Jingxing looked at Bai Lizhong curiously.
