It’s particularly frustrating, as the team supported by NA was slaughtered two times in a row! My energy and energy have been knocked out! Alas, brothers and sisters, please give me a vote to comfort me. I am really depressed. ****
On Highway 8, a Toyota Corolla was speeding.
Du Chengwen is a Chinese engineer who was born in the Northeast Automobile City. After graduating from college, he went south to work in the magic city. After struggling in that crazy city for several years, he really couldn't stand the pace of life. After saving a lot of money, he wanted to find a place to travel and relax before returning to his hometown.
Although working in Shanghai is stressful and fast-paced, he also has a lot of experience. At work, he met a friend and learned that there is a way to travel abroad called working travel, and there is a visa called a working holiday visa, which allows you to make money while working. travel.
Half a year ago, Du Chengwen came to New Zealand with a like-minded friend and began a life of working and traveling.
They spent the first half of the year in the North Island, working mainly in hotels, bars or kiwi fruit plantations, doing part-time jobs to earn some money, and then driving around for a while. Although life was not easy, it was very comfortable.
The working holiday visa is only for one year. After spending half a year in the North Island, they plan to stay in the South Island for half a year. This time their target workplaces are ranches and farms.
It turns out that although there are many ranches and farms in the South Island, they are unwilling to hire short-term workers because many tasks on ranches and farms are based on batches of time. For example, wheat is ripe once a season and beef cattle are slaughtered once a year. Workers must be able to do it. The time for a full batch is good.
Du Zewen and his friends did not find suitable jobs around Christchurch, so they had to change their destination and application targets and planned to visit the world-famous Queenstown. That was their dream goal when they came to New Zealand, and they heard that jobs are easier to find in Queenstown.
Embark on Highway 1 from Christchurch, passing through Rolleston and Ashburton to Timaru.
After a short repair, they drove onto Route 8 again, passing through Twizel and arriving at O'City. After repairing again, they drove to the end of Route 8, which was Queenstown.
While in Aocheng, Du Zewen had two more passengers on his car, one named Xu Tao and the other named Zheng Jingjing.
Xu Tao and Zheng Anjing were a young couple. Like him, they were both Chinese and backpackers who came to work and travel. It was fate that they met. After learning that the young couple and himself had the same destination, Du Ze I took two of them with me.
The car became lively when there were more people. From the moment they left Aocheng and hit the highway, the four of them started chatting enthusiastically.
Xu Tao and Zheng Anjing had just arrived in New Zealand. Their flight was direct to Christchurch. Their first destination was Queenstown. They had never been to the North Island and had been visiting the South Island.
The experiences of both parties complemented each other perfectly. Du Zewen and his friends introduced their work and life in the North Island, while the young couple introduced their work and life in the South Island. When they mentioned interesting places, they would burst into laughter in the car.
While chatting, Xu Tao's cell phone suddenly sounded a series of notification tones. He took out his cell phone in surprise, and WeChat and QQ chat barrages appeared on the screen.
Du Zewen saw this scene in the rearview mirror and said: "Xiao Tao, you are really rich. Why are you turning on the 4G network all the time? I remind you, mobile phone data in New Zealand is not cheap, and roaming is even more expensive. You have to be economical."
Xu Tao looked at his phone and said, "No, I turned off the 4G network. How could I still receive messages?"
Zheng Anjing gave him a roll of her eyes and said, "You are such a fool. You must have remembered it wrong. If you turned off the 4G network, is it because there is an IFI signal on the highway?"
Being scolded by his sweetheart, Xu Tao smiled and turned on his mobile phone to turn off the network service. As a result, he pulled down the menu and his eyes widened: "It's true, Jingjing, there is an IFI signal on this highway, and it is very strong." !”
Du Zewen thought he was joking and laughed: "Really? Is it a satellite network signal? I have been in New Zealand for more than half a year and I have never encountered free IFI on the road."
Xu Tao looked serious after checking repeatedly: "Really, Brother Du, Brother Yang, if you don't believe it, my phone's IFI is connected to the Internet. I turned on the IFI when we were eating at a convenience store, and it has not been turned off since. Now it is automatically Connected.”
Zheng Anjing took out her mobile phone and opened IFI, and then the network key automatically searched. Soon the IFI logo turned bright green, which was a sign of successful network connection.
She didn't believe it, so she opened a video and tried it. The video started playing smoothly, and the buffering speed was very fast, which was faster than the wireless network she used in the youth hostel.
Seeing this, Du Zewen and his friends were surprised. He stepped on the brakes, took out his mobile phone and tried to connect to IFI. His friend took out his IAD, searched the Internet and was also connected...
The four people stared at each other:
"What's going on? Are you really connected to the Internet?"
"Isn't this on the highway? Why is there a network on the highway?"
"Is it really a satellite network? New Zealand is covered by wireless network?"
The last speculation is just a joke, because they all came from Highway 1 to Highway 8. Not to mention the highway, some hotels and restaurants do not have wireless networks, and the IFI coverage in New Zealand is not as good as that in China.
After guessing a few words but not finding the reason, the four of them ignored it. Since they can access the Internet, they should use it first.
Young people in China are particularly dependent on mobile phones. As soon as a wireless network is available, Du Zewen no longer cares about driving. He takes out his mobile phone and starts a video chat with his parents in China - international long-distance calls are expensive, so save when you can.
Zheng Anjing scrolled through Moments and watched videos, while Xu Tao browsed his email. This time he took a leave of absence without pay to travel abroad. He had to do some work for the company at work, otherwise why would he be given a job
The four of them stopped chatting and each went about their duties. They used their mobile phones and computers to play online.
They thought that the wireless signal was only temporary, but they could still access the Internet after playing for more than two hours. It was already approaching noon, so Du Zewen had to put away his mobile phone and continue driving.
"The mobile phone is causing trouble, and the IFI is causing trouble. If we don't play, we will be in Queenstown soon, right? Drive quickly, I'm a little hungry, let's go there quickly to find something to eat." Du Zewen sighed as he started the car.
Zheng Anjing comforted: "It's okay, we can eat in front. I checked the map last night and there is Sunset Town in front. There must be a place to eat there."
Xu Tao took the time to download a few patches for the mobile phone software. The Internet is free, so use it as much as possible.
As the car continued to move forward, the network continued to exist, and the wireless signal became stronger and stronger. Finally, a network terminal transmitter appeared on the roadside, and the signal reached its strongest point. (.)
