In the afternoon, I flew from Shanghai and arrived in New York in the morning.

Yang Shan has already docked with the organizers of the summit, arranged a car to pick her up, and sent her directly to the hotel.

After settling down at the hotel, Shen Hui and Huang Peipei simply washed up and went out for a walk, while Yang Shan followed Wei Zongru to connect with the organizer, she had to familiarize herself with the affairs here as soon as possible, and it was impossible to trouble Wei Zongru if she encountered this kind of thing again in the future.

This is also the reason why Shen Hui brought her and Wu Tianming with him, and there will be more and more trips abroad in the future, arranging itineraries, contacting airlines, etc., one is the chief housekeeper and the other is the secretary, and they must be handled.

If you don't bring it out to be familiar with the business, how can you be competent in the future.

The two little girls in the office are newly recruited graduate students majoring in foreign languages.

Shen Hui and Huang Peipei's English is poor, and they specially brought Li Ying, a female master in the office.

Suddenly from the yellow-skinned country to the white country, Shen Hui couldn't help but feel that the goose had entered the duck flock, but if he looked closely, he found that New York was just like that, if you only look at the surface, this world economic center is not much better than the Shanghai market.

In terms of the city's prosperity alone, today's Shanghai market is no worse than any other city.

As for the deep things, they can't be seen by looking at the surface as a case, but by looking deeply.

Every city has its own unique temperament, and the temperament is even more obvious in an international metropolis like New York, which is a very inclusive city, where you can see all kinds of people everywhere, and from time to time you can see some behaviors that are incomprehensible in China.

But in New York, it is very common, and no one has come forward to accuse.

Those Westerners with high noses, deep eye sockets, and blond hair would not be curious because they saw a few yellow-skinned Orientals, as if everything was so natural, but an Oriental girl took the initiative to say hello when she saw them and looked around curiously.

......

Shen Hui looked at the oriental girl in front of him a little confused, not knowing what she said.

Obviously not Chinese, as for what Chinese language he spoke, he didn't know.

Fortunately, Li Ying followed, Li Ying said a few words to the girl, and said to Shen Hui: "She asked us if we were Japanese?"

Shen Hui shook his head, it turned out to be a Japanese girl.

Li Ying said a few words to the girl, and the female defense bowed and walked away with a sunny face.

Shen Hui said strangely: "What did you tell her, why did she bow?"

Li Ying said: "This is the habit of the Japanese, she said that when she saw us, it seemed that it was the first time she came to the United States, she thought it was Japanese, and wanted to ask us if we needed help, and wished us a happy trip!"

Shen Hui was surprised.

It was a surprise indeed.

This kind of thing is rarely encountered in Shanghai, at least he has not encountered it, even if he encounters foreigners who travel to Shanghai for the first time and look around, most people will choose to turn a blind eye and will not run over to ask if people need help.

After strolling down the street for a while, Shen Hui's phone rang.

The call was from Lao Wei, and lunch was arranged.

Looking at the time, it was already past eleven o'clock, and the three of them went back to the hotel.

Lunch was served at a Chinese restaurant in St. Mark's Square, and the guest was a Chinese named Zhu Livan, the head of a predominantly Chinese-based hedge fund on Wall Street, who is said to have $3 billion in hedge funds.

Zhu Liwen was very enthusiastic, but Shen Hui didn't feel much of the closeness of his fellow countrymen.

It feels like he's entertaining business partners.

After eating, Shen Hui told Wei Zongru his questions.

Lao Wei asked rhetorically: "I have a distant relative in my family, because there are too many children in the family, I can't support him, and he was taken to a relative not long after he was born, and the family conditions are not bad, and later someone told the child his biological parents, what do you guess the child said?"

Shen Hui understood it when he thought about it.

The Chinese are Chinese.

Chinese are Chinese.

Although the Chinese have a Chinese character, they are Americans.

Wei Zongru said: "The United States is not like our China, 5,000 years of history has flowed in our bones, and we always think that as long as the same blood is shed, it is Chinese." But the United States is different, this is a country of immigrants, and the culture that supports it is tolerance, especially these Chinese who were born and raised in the United States, they may admit that they are Chinese, but they are first and foremost Americans, and they rarely deliberately emphasize their Chinese identity. ”

Shen Hui nodded, and some of the preconceived notions began to change.

Wei Zongru continued: "We people are fundamentally different from those native-born Chinese, even if we get a green card to settle in the United States, we will always miss the land that gave birth to us and raised us, and eventually we will return to our roots, so I chose to return to China, those Chinese are different, in their eyes, this is their home." ”

Shen Hui smiled: "I understand, so to us, they are actually no different from those white and black people. ”

Wei Zongru said: "Except for subjective emotional closeness, there is really no difference from a business point of view. ”

Although Shen Hui understood, he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart.

If China were the world's leading power, what would be the position of these Chinese?

The answer to this question may only be revealed when China truly stands on top of the world.

Shen Hui originally planned to accompany Huang Peipei to visit New York, but from the first day, various banquets have been held one after another, and the heads of fund companies in the industry are Chinese, whites and blacks.

Shen Hui had no choice but to take the time to accompany Huang Peipei out for a walk.

After visiting a few New York landmarks and Chinatown, it felt very average.

Shen Hui has never liked high-rise buildings, but rather beautiful places, so he feels that Central Park is more worth visiting than the Empire State Building, Fifth Avenue, the Statue of Liberty, etc., at least less irritating.

Three days later, the summit began.

Shen Hui has seen a lot of Wall Street cattle, of course, he has heard few names, they are all introduced by Lao Wei, among which there are many Chinese, and except for a few Chinese, he is a foreigner who does not remember and is face blind.

During the three days of the summit, Shen Hui also received an invitation from Goldman Sachs, a Goldman Sachs vice president, Damon Lauald, to dinner and a game of golf.

Xinghai Investment is a major client of Goldman Sachs Group.

Xinghai Investment's various securities transactions in the U.S. market are completed through Goldman Sachs' brokerage company, but with the current scale of Xinghai Investment, Goldman Sachs dispatched a vice president to invite him to dinner and play golf.

The next day, the head or manager of a group of Chinese foundations invited him to dinner again.

At the dinner table, the head of a hedge fund asked him: "Mr. Shen is very optimistic about gold?"

Shen Hui said: "I think gold will rise. ”

Someone said, "But now the dollar is strengthening." ”

Shen Hui was right, obviously not wanting to discuss this issue.

Seeing that there was nothing to be tempted, he gave up as soon as he did the Chinese.
