Enzo Ferrari was born on February 1898 18 in the home of a small metal factory owner in Modena, northern Italy. Because it snowed heavily when he was born, it was not until two days later that he was able to declare his name and register it in his account.
His father Alfredo is not only an excellent cast iron player, but also an intoxicated "racing fan". /kloc-When he was 0/0 years old, his father took him to Bologna to watch racing. He was deeply attracted by the thrilling scene on the track, and he looked forward to becoming an excellent racing driver. /kloc-at the age of 0/3, he tried his best to persuade his father to allow him to drive the car alone. Since then, he has formed an indissoluble bond with the car.
19 16, Ferrari's father died of illness. Soon after, the war took his brother's life and he had to join the army himself. After the end of the First World War, after retiring from the army, Enzo Ferrari, 20, faced the first heavy blow in his life-the family workshop-style steel factory that his father painstakingly managed closed down and stopped production, and his family life plummeted; His dream of becoming an employee of an automobile factory was shattered by Fiat's ruthless refusal. Faced with this embarrassing life experience, Enzo Ferrari didn't lose heart. Instead, with the enthusiasm of racing, after doing my best to do my job, I cherish "I love sports cars more than my family and close friends;" Sports cars are an inseparable part of life. I paired up with another tester and participated in Costruzione Meccaniche Nazionalia at my own expense, and experienced the unique crazy excitement of motor racing for the first time.
At the age of 22, he won the second place in the Grand Prix and was favored by the boss of Alfa Romeo automobile manufacturing company, becoming a "life-threatening" test driver. Enzo Ferrari devoted himself to the cause he loved without any regrets. He hired the first-class automobile manufacturing engineers in Italian automobile industry-Lunge Bazri and vittorio Jano from Destiny Automobile Manufacturing Company to enhance the technical development strength of Alfa Romeo Automobile Manufacturing Company. At the age of 32, Ferrari took on the important task of captain of the racing team of Alfa Romeo automobile manufacturing company, which was seven years of rambling; Until he was 39 years old, the "Ferrari Racing Team" under his command was named after himself, and it shined brilliantly in Formula Racing, 24 Hours Sports Car Endurance Race, Mille Migtia Grand Prix, Targa Floria and other competitions. It participated in 39 grand prix and won the championship of 165438+. In a word, Enzo Ferrari has made great contributions to Alfa Romeo automobile manufacturing company to take the top spot in the world sports car industry.
Coincidentally, World War I also provided a trademark for Ferrari's sports car-"Marten". It was 1923. At the age of 25, Enzo Ferrari was lucky enough to meet the mother of an outstanding Italian pilot who died in World War I. She told Ferrari that the flying badge on both sides of her son's fighter plane was a "marten", and if Ferrari painted it on the racing car, it would bring good luck. Ferrari listened to his mother's words and did as she said when he got back, which really brought good luck.
As the saying goes, people are afraid of famous pigs and strong ones. With the increasing fame of Ferrari, it is difficult for Enzo Ferrari to get rid of the stigma even if he converges again. In the face of Alfa Romeo's boss's carrot and stick forcing him to hand over power, Enzo Ferrari felt that his good days of "spring breeze and horseshoe disease" were coming to an end, so he confidently refuted the boss; Facing the jealousy of Wilfredo Ricart, the chief engineer of Alfa Romeo automobile manufacturing company, Enzo Ferrari retorted, "He dresses like a nouveau riche. When you shake hands with him, you will feel his palm as cold as a zombie. " The increasingly incompatible interpersonal relationship with his boss and colleagues made it difficult for Enzo Ferrari to adapt to this harsh living environment. He had to leave Alfa Luo Ou Automobile Manufacturing Company at the age of 40.
After seven years of hard work, 48-year-old Enzo Ferrari faced the opportunity of the end of World War II, and finally reached a proud day. He was discerning and resourceful, and founded the Ferrari automobile manufacturing company in the town of Maranello in the northern Italian city of Bologna.
1947 Ferrari set up its own car factory. After producing the first car, he named it after himself-Ferrari Tipol25, with the trademark of vault. In the following three years, Ferrari successively produced Tipo 166, Tipo 195, Tipo2 12 and Tipo225. Because the performance of the car needs to be tested on the track, Ferrari actively participates in various racing competitions to test and promote its own car. Ferrari did not live up to his expectations and won many laurels: Tipo375, with a displacement of 4. 1 liter, won the championship of Mailer Michella with 195 1; Tipo 4 1000 won the championship in Buenos Aires 1000 km motor race. 1956, Ferrari's modified blue flag car surpassed the highest honor of the world automobile race-the annual championship of Formula One racing. This series of victories has established Ferrari's supreme position in the world car world. In addition to manufacturing racing cars and participating in competitions, Ferrari is also actively planning to manufacture Ferrari sports cars in order to support its racing plan with the profits from the sale of sports cars. Unfortunately, the small-scale sports car production has limited profits, which is difficult to support the huge expenses of the racing team, and the economy is often in trouble. However, due to its high popularity, Ferrari has won many honors for the country and has almost become the image representative of the Italian automobile industry. Therefore, Fiat with deep pockets often gives selfless help in finance. Ford was once interested in buying Ferrari, but Ferrari firmly refused. He is worried that after his company is owned by Ford, on the one hand, the other party will use Ferrari's achievements to promote its image (which is not conducive to the Italian automobile industry), and on the other hand, his racing plan will be disturbed to some extent. 1969, Ferrari agreed to let its Fiat company buy it, provided that the other party would not interfere in its racing activities in the future.
Since then, his career has been inseparable from that thrilling car race. Enzo Ferrari's famous sports car was kicked out after failing and testing. In the 1952 World Car Race, a terrible accident occurred in the F 1 model designed by Ferrari, resulting in the death of 12 people. At that time, Vantigan's newspaper vehemently accused him of being a "modern demon". However, whenever Ferrari wins the championship, fans seem to forget everything in the past and enthusiastically call Ferrari a magician. His F 1 racing car has won more than 100 in the world competition. So far, no car has broken this record.
1On August 4th, 988, Enzo Ferrari, the automobile superstar, passed away at the age of 90. He left behind an immortal career and a Ferrari as a work of art.
At present, * * of Ferrari Motor Company is another son of Mr. Enzo Ferrari, P Lardean, who was born in 1950 and is half-brother with Dino. But Mr. Enzo Ferrari had never seen him before he was 1 1 years old. P Lardian was not allowed to use his father's name Ferrari until his wife who had lived with Enzo Ferrari for 55 years died in 1978.
I'll wait for you in the rain.
When a dog has a human soul, what will the world in its heart look like? In particular, the owner of this dog is not an ordinary person, but a master of racing in the rain ... Your heart determines what you see ... because where your eyes look, the car will drive.
Enzo is a dog with a human soul. He carefully observed Danny's every move and guided the reader to a bittersweet ending with humor, sharp eyes and tone. Through Danny, Enzo found that "racing in the rain" is a metaphor. People have successfully controlled the trials and difficulties on the road of life by using the skills of racing drivers on the track.
When I was a manuscript, I was rejected many times, but all of them were rejected by Jeff, an international best-selling agent. Under the nose of kleiman, this manuscript quickly went global. In the summer of 2008, the novel was published in shock, and quickly reached the best-seller list in The New York Times, which won rave reviews from readers in Britain, France, Germany, South Korea and other countries. At one time, people were reading Enzo from Times Square in new york to the steps in front of the Louvre, from the Pacific coast in Sydney to Edogawa in Tokyo. The fresh words and touching plots in the book touched thousands of readers.
Enzo is a hybrid terrier, with the same name as Enzo Ferrari, the "father of racing", with the wisdom of philosophers and human soul. It carefully observes the every move of its owner, racing driver Danny, and tells the joys and sorrows of Danny's family in a humorous and warm tone: whether it is a happy time or a difficult time, it will always be with its owner, witnessing the happiness, separation and sadness of this family, feeling the warmth and despair of life, and the fragility and strength of the soul. The words are touching and the plot is ups and downs. I am waiting for you in the rain is very touching and meaningful.
Just like Susie's World, Babel's Dog or Mysterious Dog Exercise in the Late Night, we see the reunion or eternal separation between man and nature from an ingenious narrative perspective. I'm waiting for you in the rain. Through the eyes of Enzo, an old dog, and with a sharp sense of humor, we can see human nature clearly and understand the significance of unconditional sacrifice and true love for our family. This is a blueprint depicting sympathy, determination and spirituality.
I'm afraid there is nothing more painful than waiting. Time is a sharp weapon to kill faith. The fear of the unknown, the anxiety of self-doubt, and the fear of being at a loss are all infinitely magnified in a long and endless time. Perhaps it is this association that adds a touch of sadness to the novel I Wait for You in the Rain.
Such sadness makes people ignore some key factors. Perhaps the English title of the novel should be more straightforward, the art of racing. Perhaps, the story can be told again, this time more about the crisis and redemption of life. For racing drivers, rain is the biggest enemy, because it will amplify all your mistakes.
Danny is an excellent racing driver. He knows that rain is not only the enemy of racing, but also a part of racing. This is the ultimate art of racing. In the moment of heavy rain, terror and hopelessness, excellent drivers must swallow their fears into their bodies and stick to their hearts and beliefs. Only they can decide their own destiny. Controlling fear is an art, although it is so wild and powerful that it is out of control.
In Danny's life, misfortune and sadness do happen around us, but Danny and Enzo are telling us the inevitable connection between love and responsibility, self-control and happiness. On the rainstorm track, Danny defended his dreams and family with his life-long courage. Enzo, on the other hand, was accompanied by sadness and pain, and his master refused to leave. Even if the fate is strong and impermanent, how can you tell the despair of love in your heart? I hope you can also open this book on a bright afternoon and not be blinded by the storm.
