Chapter 1043

In the next two days, King Simba was in the limelight. Qin Shiou estimated that it had become the pride of the lynx family. It was a fox pretending to be a tiger, and it was a cat pretending to be a bear. As long as the bear traveled, it would lie on its shoulder or back, which was also majestic.

Unfortunately, Xiong Da is too lazy. Except when he fights with the tiger, leopard and wolf pineapple, he only runs when Qin Shiou and Weini take him to lose weight and exercise. At other times, he will find a place to hide and sleep.

Qin Shiou doesn't understand. Where did the bear get so much sleep? He used to think that bears were lazy and would sleep when they had nothing to do.

However, after searching for information on the Internet, he found that Kodiak brown bears are more diligent because they have a big appetite and need to keep walking to find food, otherwise they can only be hungry.

Therefore, Kodiak brown bears are quite fit and powerful, and they are almost invincible in the mountains and forests of North America, such as North American mountain lions, North American gray wolves, wild boars and cheetahs. When they see them, they can only escape.

At the end of March, the seafood Expo in Amsterdam will be held. Butler has obtained the qualification to participate in the exhibition and asked Qin Shiou to take Weini and her children to the Netherlands.

Winnie shook her head and said she wouldn't go. Just let Qin Shiou go and have a look. She wants to look after the children at home. After all, the little melon is too small to take a plane.

In this way, Qin Shiou had to take bird and Nelson, two full-time bodyguards, and St. Johns flew directly to Amsterdam. In fact, it was very convenient to travel.

Amsterdam is the largest city in the Netherlands, located in the northern Netherlands province of the Netherlands. Its name comes from Amstel dam, a dam on the Amster River, which is now the site of Dam Square.

Before the late 12th century, Amsterdam was just a small fishing village. Then, due to the development of trade, the city jumped into an important port in the world in the golden age of the Netherlands. At that time, Amsterdam was the center of Finance and diamonds.

Now its position is also very important. It is the fourth largest airport in Europe, second only to London, Paris and Frankfurt.

The plane landed at the airport. As soon as Qin Shiou went out with his luggage on his back, a taxi stopped in front of him. The driver put his head out and asked in good English, "Hi, friend, where are you going?"

Qin Shiou reported the name of a hotel. This is the address Butler gave him. He said he had arranged a trip for him.

On hearing the name of the hotel tulip, the middle-aged driver smiled and said, "I think you must be Chinese, right?"

Qin Shiou asked, "does my accent have Chinese flavor?"

The middle-aged driver shook his head and said with a smile, "no, most of the tourists from the East who like to live in the tulip hotel are Chinese, Jack Chen and Kung Fu Dragon. He once made a film there. The film is called" who am I ". You should know, right?"

Qin Shiou nodded and said, "yes, I know. I've seen this film. It turned out that it was shot in Amsterdam? Oh, please forgive me. I was very young when I saw this film and didn't know the world. "

He saw the film in primary school. At that time, he didn't even know New York and Los Angeles. Where did he know Amsterdam.

When Nelson and bird got on the bus, the driver enthusiastically began to introduce the film "who am I" in Amsterdam.

Qin Shiou really didn't know the relevant situation before. After listening to the driver's introduction, he learned that Jackie Chan is very famous in Amsterdam, almost comparable to the top Hollywood stars.

At that time, when filming who am I, the Amsterdam municipal government gave a lot of preferential treatment. Among them, on October 3, 4 and 5, the municipal government stipulated that the main road outside the wharf should be closed for 6 hours every day, and even the six lane Expressway outside the municipal building should be sealed and lent to them for filming.

The Dutch Navy sent more than 300 officers and soldiers to participate in the performance, including Marines, frogmen, military vehicles and multi-purpose fighters, and they only need to provide food without compensation.

After going abroad, Qin Shiou found that many things were publicized differently in China than abroad. Jackie Chan has a general reputation in China. Many new generation fans don't take him seriously because of the Little Dragon Girl incident and his son's trivia.

But in foreign countries, Jackie Chan is very famous. Even in Hollywood, he is a famous actor with great appeal. In Amsterdam, Jackie Chan is synonymous with Chinese films and Chinese Kung Fu.

Tulips are the national flower of the Netherlands. After taxis drive into the urban area, there will be a park every three or five times, in which lush tulips grow.

The driver enthusiastically introduced the varieties of these flowers to them, but Qin Shiou couldn't distinguish them. What he saw was golden flowers blooming in early spring, which made the city full of enthusiasm.

The car finally stopped at the gate of a big hotel that looked old. The doorman helped open the door. Qin Shiou handed him a ten Canadian dollar bill. The doorman immediately smiled and helped carry luggage upstairs.

Qin Shiou didn't go upstairs directly. He stood in the square in front of the hotel and looked. He was still very curious when he came to Holland for the first time.

Opposite the hotel are some simple buildings, and then on both sides are magnificent high-rise buildings. Qin Shiou was a little strange, so he asked the doorman, "are those buildings the former residence of celebrities?"

The doorman said cautiously, "no, sir, that's a lesson of history. It used to be a Jewish residential area. Before World War II, it was opposite the glorious church of Judaism."

Then, the doorman told Qin Shiou a historical past.

On May 10, 1940, * * Germany invaded the Netherlands. The Germans established a * * regime in Amsterdam and began to persecute Jews. Although some citizens took great risks to protect Jews, in the end, more than 100000 Dutch Jews were put into concentration camps, and only about 5000 Dutch Jews survived.

At the end of World War II, communication between Amsterdam and other regions was completely interrupted, and there was an extreme shortage of food and fuel. In winter, many trees in the city were cut down by citizens as firewood, and Jewish houses were demolished first. Later, they were demolished to Guanghui church. Although the believers tried their best to protect them, most of the wood was robbed.

After the end of World War II, the Amsterdam municipal government was deeply ashamed of this, so it saved this unusable church as a warning, hoping that people can exercise restraint and preserve their conscience.

The little doorman saw that Qin Shiou paid attention to the old church and thought he liked this old-fashioned building, so he gave him some scenic spots to visit.

Amsterdam has preserved a large number of ancient buildings. After World War II, the city was once enthusiastic about demolition and transformation. The Jewish settlements before the war were demolished, and some narrow streets, such as Jewish streets, were demolished.

The demolition of a large number of old buildings angered some citizens and eventually triggered a "new square riot". Later, the citizen's demonstration had an effect, the demolition and expansion of the street was terminated, and the subway would only be built underground, which also protected the old buildings and urban style to a great extent.
