Chapter 299 Visiting the Exhibition Area

*The next chapter will come soon, within ten minutes!
Early in the morning, the family did not dine at the hotel, but went out to find a romantic French restaurant and enjoyed a hearty French dessert breakfast.

Fresh and authentic French bread, lovely crepes, tempting waffles, milky muffins, and fresh and hearty salads will satisfy the whole family.

When Angel left, she packed a portion of Furnudo, and begged the adults to say that she would come again tomorrow morning!
Qin Yi and the three naturally agreed with a smile, making the little girl who likes desserts happy all the way.

A happy day starts with breakfast!

Today is the first day of the Miami Yacht Show. Qin Yi's family didn't go out to play anymore. After breakfast, they rushed directly to the exhibition area.

The Miami International Boat Show is the premier yacht show in the United States and the largest annual event in Florida, attracting thousands of high-quality audiences such as corporate executives, group presidents, and multinational buyers.

Speaking of the United States, everyone knows that it is a country on wheels, but in fact, the United States is also a country on yachts.

Surrounded by the sea on three sides, with five Great Lakes in the north, the geographical conditions are superior, coupled with the affluent life of the people, the United States has become the world's largest yacht consumer market. The annual yacht consumption accounts for half of the world market share!
Today, there are millions of yachts in the United States. Except for the central area where there is no large water area, in the remaining places, about 5.00% of the households own yachts!
Of course, most of them are small yachts of several meters or tens of meters.

Really large yachts over 20 meters, and luxury yachts tens to hundreds of meters, are still the toys of the super rich!
At eight o'clock in the morning, the Miami Beach Exhibition Center was already crowded with people.

This is the indoor exhibition area of ​​the yacht show. Most of the exhibits are models, as well as accessories, accessories and decorations of the boat, such as battery propulsion technology, internal and external engines, engine oil, fishing gear, preservatives, maintenance materials and equipment, etc.

There are also some consumer services, such as leasing, insurance, interior decoration guidance and so on.

Everything you can think of related to boats is here!

Qin Yi is hugging Angel, Susa and Ke Luo are holding his arms, and the family can always find them everywhere, especially in the exhibition areas of models and concept drawings.

Like them, many people either visit and take photos by themselves, or are introduced enthusiastically by the staff, and shuttle through the crowds one by one, looking for the perfect yacht in their minds.

During the stroll, Qin Yi also saw a brief introduction of some of the world's top yachts. The one that impressed him the most was an ultra-luxury yacht named Eclipse.

This yacht is the number one launched yacht in the world today. It belongs to the Russian rich man Abramovich and is worth 8 million euros!
At that time, Qin Yi was stunned, which was equivalent to 8.47 million US dollars!

Counting all the pastures, cattle, vineyards, and Liuhuo wine, Qin Yi's total assets today are less than 8 million US dollars!
At this moment, Qin Yi deeply felt that he only had two coins, and he was far from being rich!

However, the Eclipse is really awesome. It is a yacht more than 160 meters long, and it also comes with two small yachts tens of meters long, two helicopters, a submarine capable of diving 12 meters with 150 crew members, and missile detection and defense. System, what the heck, this is completely a private warship!
I don't know how many enemies Abu has.
At that time, Qin Yi smiled and said to Susa and Ke Luo that he had to work hard to make money and build them an even more awesome yacht than this in the future.

These words made the two girls happy, but they also said in unison that they don't want it. They feel that a luxury yacht tens of meters is enough. That's necessary!
Qin Yi was very relieved, feeling that his daughter-in-law really knew how to be considerate.

After shopping all morning, Angel first took a fancy to a super yacht with a length of [-] meters!

The reason why Angel fell in love with it was also very simple, it was big enough to drive back to pick up grandma!
Susa and Keluo glanced at it, and coaxed the little girl to reject it.

The supporting facilities of the yacht are very good, but the only and biggest shortcoming is the appearance. In the eyes of the three adults, it is more like a cruise ship than a yacht. It does not have the streamlined beauty of a yacht at all!
Similarly, Kolo and Sousa also have their eyes on a yacht.

The shape of the yacht is a bird's head with its mouth open to the sky. The whole body is white, only the eyes are black. With the addition of the ship's side and deck, the depiction is lifelike and very beautiful.

However, after asking the staff, I found out that this is just a concept model. If you really want it, you have to order it, and it is expected to be delivered in two years!
This made the two girls immediately look disappointed. For two years, the day lily was cold!

Show off if there is no stock!

Qin Yi felt sorry for his daughters-in-law, and while slandering the manufacturer, he persuaded them: "Okay, daughters-in-law, don't be sad, let's go to the Ocean Island Wharf to have a look, there are all ready-made ones, maybe we can find satisfactory ones, then we will directly Drive home!"

"You're kidding us again! I bought it today but I can't drive it away. We still need a captain!"

Although the two women said this, their moods improved obviously, and they walked out of the indoor exhibition area with Qin Yi's arm in anticipation.

Driving to the Ocean Island Wharf, there are a large number of white yachts, and a small number of them are blue or red hulls, but the number is too small, so the main tone is pure white!
It's a few meters small, like a bath, Qin Yi thinks it's more appropriate to call it a speedboat.

It is more than ten meters long and has two decks. It is the tallest of the short ones, and it looks quite beautiful.

It's just that there are too many yachts here. It seems that there are tens of thousands of yachts. It is really unrealistic to walk along the way and look at them one by one.

So, Qin Yi waved his hand and waved for a tour bus, and the family got on it, shuttled along the path of the pier, watching the yachts or speedboats with different shapes.

I have also seen many catamarans and even trimarans. Qin Yi also has some understanding of this design. It can not only reduce the weight of the hull, but also reduce the contact area with the sea water, which can greatly increase the sailing speed.

The family watched and discussed, but they were basically small yachts under 20 meters, so they were really not interested.

The driver of the tour bus was an old white man. Hearing Qin Yi's conversation, he said enthusiastically, "Excuse me!"

The three of Qin Yi were taken aback for a moment, they didn't expect the old man to speak, but they didn't feel disturbed, so they smiled and motioned for him to continue talking.

"Ha, I can see that you are peaceful and rich people! Well, I didn't intend to listen to your conversation, but this guide car really can't achieve the effect of sound insulation!"

The old white man explained politely, half-jokingly, making Qin Yi and the others smile kindly.

"Well, I heard you talking about luxury yachts. I know a 288-foot (88-meter) big guy! It's docked in the west exhibition area, and many rich people are visiting, and maybe they haven't been bought yet!"

"Thank you so much! Please take us there."

The family was very happy. After a whole morning of searching, a yacht that might be satisfactory finally appeared.

All the way to the west exhibition area, I saw a Jumbo docked at the pier from a distance. The graceful curves, streamlined figure, and noble temperament that stood out from the crowd and looked down on all living beings immediately moved Qin Yi's family.
