56 Cocktail Party

In addition to a trip to Suzhou Science and Technology Park in Pujiang, Katie's rest of her work is to meet with clients and review documents at the Pujiang branch. After work, he was dragged in the room by Lin Yilong, instead of going out for a walk in the real sense.

Mr. Lin received an invitation from Mr. Stewart on Thursday by courier. He was invited to a summer cocktail party at a British Chamber of Commerce on Friday night at a hotel.

Such a cocktail party is a simple social occasion, but with a strong official party color. It is better to say that the original intention of setting up such a reception is the same as the student meal of the Bar Association, which is to enhance industry contacts and access to information, and some British small enterprises and selected Chinese enterprises are also invited. For the sake of "mutual benefit", social occasions need a point of contact, and it is very reasonable for financial and legal service personnel to introduce them in the middle.

The British banks only play a small role in Pujiang, and this small role has long been controlled by Chedder and Huifeng, two banks that have been pressed to the ground by Middlesex in the UK, and the Middlesex Bank, which is much larger than them, has no say in Pujiang at all.

Due to the foreign exchange management system, the branch of Middlesex Bank in Pujiang is only used to liaise with other banks in Pujiang and collect payments, and there is no financial service for non-financial institutions. In order to improve the situation, Middlesex Bank decided to turn the Pujiang office into a branch and compete with other foreign banks for the market. In the process of evolution, you need a manager who is safe and does not make mistakes, and Stewart is just the right fit.

Prior to this, Middlesex had been licensed to provide foreign currency financial services. Since you have made up your mind to start a business in the Far East, the more investors the better, as long as you can attract funds, the rest of the places will naturally have ways and means to help you arrange it.

As an important town in the Far East, Pujiang's geographical and geographical advantages have gathered a large number of outstanding talents, among which Lin Yilong's hometown is not small, and there are a few people attending such a ball. Many people were invited by Stewart at the behest of Lin Yilong, and they knew each other.

In the venue, Lin Yilong was like a huge magnet, gathering people who knew him. Of course, his glamorous female companion is also one of the reasons for attracting the attention of others.

Katie attended the reception as Mr. Lin's female companion and wore the rarely worn cocktail gown — a short skirt that accentuated a woman's glamorous figure, similar to the look Europeans would wear to a nightclub on a Friday night.

Katie didn't know anything about Chinese and didn't know what Lin Yilong was talking to someone he knew.

Generally speaking, women who can attend such occasions are not vases and have more or less ability, so men are not as casual as they are in informal situations.

After Lin Yilong and Stuart met, they picked up the champagne glass and greeted them in the distance, making a look that only the other party could read.

will open, it is still the host's toast, and it is all about some non-nutritious scenes, and after the whole audience has raised a glass, it is the real drinking party time.

The circle of the cocktail party is still that circle, since Lin Yilong, who is the central figure of the contact circle, is still present, the guests around him will not leave when he officially introduces the people in this circle they may be interested in, otherwise they would not listen to Lin Yilong's views on French cuisine on the sidelines.

After talking to the organizers for a while, Stewart ran to Lin Yilong and waited for Lin Yilong to introduce himself.

"Gentlemen, I think you all know Middlesex Bank, Mr. Stewart, the bank's Far East representative, wants to establish a new relationship with you, if your business has any trouble with cross-border or domestic financing, or is stuck in laws and regulations, etc., you can try to consider this bank. If you have any business questions, you can boldly and confidently ask the gentleman next to me, the actual leader of the Pujiang branch of Middlesex Bank, Mr. Stewart. Lin Yilong said a very lengthy introduction, but it should be able to show the meaning of his recommendation.

Stewart handed everyone in the circle his business card and began to tell them about the Middlesex Bank business. The focus was mainly on the outlook for the economic scenario, and then turned back to the issues related to cross-border financing and private banking.

After Lin Yilong's introduction, seeing that everyone's attention was focused on Mr. Stewart, he left Katie, walked to the dessert table by himself, picked up the cream cake and ate it by himself.

Mr. Stewart's goal was achieved, although he did not receive the business card in exchange, but he was already familiar with Lin Yilong's fellow villagers - none of these people dared to blatantly talk to Stewart about the circumvention strategy of foreign exchange control, and it was impossible to exchange business cards directly with him on the surface - but in time, the seeds planted would eventually blossom and bear fruit. As long as these people who were introduced by Lin Yilong replied to Stewart, how to expand the customer base was a question of Middlesex Bank's marketing methods. Stewart focused on cross-border financing in accordance with Lin Yilong's suggestion, and Mr. Stewart, who Lin suggested at this cocktail party, invited precisely the financial leaders or financial personnel who had the right to make suggestions in this regard.

Katie found out about Lin Yilong's departure, but she couldn't leave the circle in front of everyone, and she didn't move before she could figure out Lin Yilong's intentions.

Lin Yilong, he was at the sweet bar and asked the chef who prepared the cold food about the purchase channels of various foods, and when he got what he wanted to know, he saw Katie looking at him with a little sad eyes.

Mr. Stewart had a good conversation with the people in Lin Yilong's circle, and Katie could only stand beside Mr. Stewart, the only British businessman, to continue to "punish him", at which time Lin Yilong's voice interrupted the discussion in this small circle.

"I'm sorry to allow me to introduce Ellen Binghamton's paralegal, Miss Karen Whitehouse. In the future, if you have any legal questions related to company registration and corporate governance structure and equity distribution, please continue to support Alan Binghamton. Lin Yilong said, even if he introduced Katie to the people in the circle.

The applause is still warm, but there is a lot less sincerity, since Lin Yilong has been introduced for such a long time, he is definitely not a particularly important person. It is true that Katie is not a vase brought by Lin Yilong, but it is undoubtedly better to directly find Lin Yilong, who is more familiar with his appetite, than to find Katie, who does not understand domestic corporate governance institutions.

This is also Lin Yilong's professional loyalty to Alan Binghamton, he cannot move into the Bracken Forest Farm before Easter next year, and intends to leave Alan Binghamton directly, which is generally counted as for himself and Katie, opening a new practice law firm with a few of his classmates in Wales.
