Chapter 100, Milan, three famous cars to pick up

Milan, the second largest city in Italy, is located on the Lombardy Plain. It is famous for its architecture, fashion, art, painting, opera, football, and tourism. It is a southern European city with a long history.

Milan is also one of the world's famous international metropolises, one of the eight world's metropolitan areas, Italy's most developed city and one of the four major economic centers in Europe. The GDP of the metropolitan area accounts for about 5% of Italy's GDP, making it the most densely populated and industrially developed region in Europe.

At the same time, it is also the most influential city in the world's fashion and design capital and the fashion industry. It is a world's historical and cultural city, a world opera holy place, and a world art capital. It is no exaggeration to say that Milan Fashion Week, one of the four famous fashion weeks in the world, has always been regarded as the "barometer" of world fashion design and consumption.

From this, when Alice learned that Ashley O'Leyle was not only born in Milan, but her mother also served as fashion design consultants in three major brands, Louis Vuitton, Chanel and Prada, and owned an independent wedding photography house, the joy was naturally unparalleled.

Without diamonds, you will naturally not be able to take on porcelain work. If you didn’t know how powerful Ashley’s mother was, Alice would certainly not have spent so much time and money on “Oscars”. Although with the movie “The Man from the Atlantic”, the mainland market would have been swept by the trend of toad mirrors and bell-bottom pants throughout the 1980s, Alice certainly knew that without real clothing and fashion research and development capabilities, this company would definitely not last long.

Fortunately, when Los Angeles was covered with heavy rain, it was more than a hundred miles south, San Diego, located in California and Mexico's border, was still clear. So, taking advantage of the night flight, the Alice and his family successfully boarded the Boeing 747 flight. After a night flight, after a long journey through Amsterdam, they finally arrived at their destination successfully.

"So, if you can't set out last night, the entire trip will be dragged down!"

Outside the glass window, the sky was dark, and stars were flashing in the sky. As the dense flow of people walked out of the airport, Alice sighed: "But the air is really good, and the Mediterranean climate in Italy is exactly the same as that in Los Angeles, which can prevent the environment from being unacceptable."

Oscar walked quickly in front with his suitcase. After listening to his sister's words, he snorted: "You can't wait for dinner, do you admit it?"

Alice glanced at her naughty brother disdainfully: "I'm just looking forward to it, can't it be? A traditional Italian family dinner, and Ashley's grandmother is a member of the Ferrero family. Don't tell me, you don't want to try their chocolate, it's purely handmade."

Oscar snorted again, but this time he felt much more guilty, and Hannah, who was beside him, immediately giggled.

"But... the time difference will take a little effort."

Sophie walked along the way with a yawn. She boarded the plane in Santiago at this time last night, and landed in Milan at this time today. However, the real itinerary was nearly half less than a day and night. This is the power of jet lag, which can easily make people unable to tell the difference.

Of course, it won't take long to walk out of the airport. When the warm Italian air hits the face, on the dry and flat road under the night, Ashley was waving to Alice excitedly, and behind her was...

"The bastard is actually three Maserati!"

Alice walked up quickly, laughed and gave Ashley a friendly hug: "I said dear, is it necessary to have such a big show? Don't tell me that this is all from your family. No one would buy three exactly the same cars, it must be rented, right?"

Ashley said nothing, first left a hot kiss mark on Alice's face, and then said happily: "My grandma has heard about your deeds. These cars were sent by her family. Don't forget that "The Ghost Record" has been released in Milan, but she is still your fan!"

In this way, Alice grinned and said, "Your grandma...well, it's so amazing, and she's not afraid of a heart attack."

It was really a problem for Oscar to hear a few words. He was just looking at the three and four-seat Maserati luxury business cars. The light under the street lights were clearly visible, and each car was equipped with a driver in black suit and sunglasses in the front row.

He grew up and said, "Ashley, these cars...what did your grandma send?"

Ashley first greeted James, Sophie, and Hannah in turn, and then responded to Oscar's question: "Oh, Alice, you haven't told you?"

Alice coughed, patted Ashley on the shoulder, and pointed to the smiling family members in front of her, mainly to Oscar who was growing up with mouths, and introduced: "This, my good friend, the eighth-grade senior of Johnson High School, an Italian blonde beauty, um..."

"Didn't you talk about the chocolate issue just now? Oscar, forgot? Ashley's grandmother is a princess of the Ferrero family~ Well, the princess is an adjective, this family..."

"Oh~ I feel a little embarrassed to say it."

Ashley grabbed her hair with a whirring sound, and said with a chuckle: "The Ferrero Group, established by the Ferrero family of grandma, was a family-owned enterprise. It started in 1946. After decades of development, it is now the fourth largest chocolate manufacturer in the world."

"As for these three Maserati, hey, we support national enterprises. We have some shares in Ferrari, so it's not easy to borrow three of its cars?"

Although Oscar was screaming and standing next to his wife, James sighed in his heart.

As an ordinary second-generation Chinese immigrant, he was able to become a history teacher in UCLA and marry an American blonde with a Harvard law doctorate as his wife, which is actually a journey to the peak of his life.

But now, compared to the achievements of his daughter, in the face of the characters he faces, James has felt that he is afraid he is really old...

"Wow! Then can you give me a Ferrari when you look back? Or Lamborghini? Alfa Romeo is also very good. Also, has there been a new product called Pagani recently..."

"Let's talk about this when you're sixteen years old. Come on, Ashley, let's get in the car."

Amid Oscar's shouting, James happily watched Alice pulling his brother's ear and getting on the back of a car with Sophie. Then Oscar and Hannah were one, and Alice naturally had to talk to Ashley about a lot of things and got on the third car.

As soon as he got into the car, Ashley burst into laughter: "Dear, your brother is really interesting. Looking at his stunned look, I really can't help but want to tease him."

Alice rolled her eyes: "You won't fall in love with that idiot, are you?"

Ashley laughed again, put Alice on the shoulder and kissed her in the face: "Of course not, I never attacked the little boy. Yes, Alice, are you talking to me, how is the heavy rain in Los Angeles?"

Alice stretched her waist lazily, opened the window, and felt the warm air in the sound of Maserati's powerful motor: "So, your family must come out with the best food tonight. I'm here all the way and waiting for this big meal."

With Ashley's full promise, three cars drove quickly into Milan in the night, but of course they didn't really have to park in the city. After walking along the ring road for most of the time, the huge manor was her home on a green plain in the southern area.

"Welcome, Alice."

At the door of the manor, an old woman with white hair was dressed in elegant clothes and took the lead in meeting the first place with elegant and light steps. She took the lead in front of Ashley's parents and gave Alice a friendly voucher.

"I finally saw the real person. I have often heard your name in the past six months!"

"Hello, Mrs. O'Leary, thank you very much for the car you sent. I heard from Ashley, do you like my movies very much?"

While Ashley's parents were greeting her parents, Alice instantly looked at the old woman in her 60s. She is worthy of being a consortium princess who has made a fortune for a long time. Not only does she maintain her skin very properly, but she also has a kind of instinctive aristocratic style in every move, let alone the exquisite dress that is worthy of her daughter's identity. Her private customization of Chanel can best demonstrate her personal temperament.

"My movies can be released in Italy so quickly, thanks to your operation."

While walking towards the manor, Ashley informed the process on the road, Alice kept thanking the old woman O'Leary: "When the movie was released in the UK, it was delayed for a long time due to the grading issue. Unexpectedly, after I arrived in Italy, I doubled the time. I was in China at that time. After returning to China, I heard Mr. Lawrence say it, and I sighed that your country's work efficiency is just a little strange. It turns out that you are working."

The old woman Oler held Alice's hand as soon as she met. At this time, she heard her evaluation of her country's work efficiency, but she snorted disdainfully: "Without me intervening, can those lazy men work diligently?"

Alice quietly stuck out her tongue and gave the old woman a thumbs up in her heart.
