On Thursday, the sun was shining and hundreds of people gathered in the open space of the square to wait for Katerina's arrival. After a while, a white car slowly drove into the square, and someone in the crowd whispered, "She's coming!"

The crowd erupted in cheers, Katerina from Russia got out of the car in a black dress, followed by several senior executives of the company, and the guests outside the red carpet surrounded the three layers inside and three layers outside, and the senior executives and assistants of Dugardfeld Company and other groups arrived at the scene.

Su Xiaoqi stepped forward to greet the mayor, and the crowd crowded desperately forward, shouting, the police and black-clad security guards pushed the crowd back, and the photographers' spotlights crackled and flashed. They walked slowly down the red carpet in the presence of guests from all walks of life, including celebrities, municipal senators, and Russian business luminaries. The groundbreaking ceremony of Dugardefel's new building and plans for a future business center were highlighted on television and in the newspapers.

On the hotel building, Catherine stood alone in front of the window, one hand on the windowsill, muttering, "It's been ten years......

From the moment she met her teenager at the age of sixteen, Catherine had tried to get close to him, but never entered his heart. Egbert was polite and distant to herself, and every time she saw him, the young man did not stay long, turned and left.

It doesn't matter, she said in her heart, one day, he will put the ring on her with his own hands. But just now, when she went to look for him, the blond young man said to herself, "Miss Catherine, I think you know very well that this is unilaterally wanted by the elders, and I am sorry for this, I will not marry you." ”

"One day, you'll understand. Catherine said confidently. Maybe the two of them are childhood sweethearts, and their beautiful relationship cannot be interfered with, but the opportunity was left to her by her father.

Caterina is also gone, the two families are destined to be united, God will help her, and the opportunity is hers.

Egbert lowered his eyes and said indifferently, "Daydreaming is not for Miss Catherine. ”

His demeanor is still elegant and polite, and his tone is still gentle, but now he doesn't even disdain to disguise the illusion of gentleness. Catherine's grace, upbringing, conversation, and mind seemed to him nothing.

He said to a middle-aged man wearing a hat in front of the door, "Ronald, get ready, let's go." Without looking at her again, Egbert turned and left the room.

Catherine, who had always been strong and confident, sat on the carpet. Egbert's treatment of her is truly arrogant and indifferent, and what could be more sad than the indifference and rejection of her partner in her heart?

However, no matter what she did, she could not win his gaze at her.

Egbert walked out from behind the revolving door of the imposing hotel building, for the fabulous Ross Hill House ruler on Wall Street, he had everything at his fingertips, and there seemed to be nothing on the whole planet that could catch his eye, in fact, there was news that caught Allen's attention recently.

Egbert got into an elongated limousine and sat on the sofa, while the man in a suit opened the wine cabinet and took out a bottle of red wine and respectfully poured a glass for the young man.

There was a news on the screen - a young woman who appeared on TV, her flowing hair falling down her neck, with a bit of smart temperament, and after careful makeup, she looked different, but he would not admit it. Her hair and eyebrows are trimmed so differently that even those who know her well will not recognize her for a while.

The subtle observation told him that a person's subconscious small movements are difficult to change, and when she laughed, the corners of her lips curved up, and the ratio of squinted eyes to the corners of her lips and dimples was just right.

That's right, that's her.

The Financial Times headline read: "Dugardefel's auction illustrates the strength and global footprint of the world's fourth investment bank, and the company's executives hope that this auction will recreate the glorious history of the financial giants of yesteryear......

Britain is a country with a traditional tradition, and the different classes can be clearly seen by the readers of the newspapers, and one TV drama joked that the newspapers are, "I know the newspapers, and I know who those readers are." The readers of the Mirror think they are running the country, the readers of the Guardian think they should run the country, the readers of the Times are indeed running the country, the readers of the Daily Mail are the wives of the people who run the country, and the readers of the Financial Times 'owning' the country. ”

Founded in 1888, the Financial Times is a national economic and financial newspaper, mainly reporting financial, fiscal, industrial and commercial news, and domestic and foreign political movements related to the economy.

The foreign readers of the Times were resting or dining at home at this time.

A silver-haired man stood in the manor's rose garden for a long time, pruning a rose.

"Seems like something interesting is happening?"

A man with long hair stood aside and spoke up, "Mr. Nolan, your cousin is here. ”

The silver-haired man looked up and asked, "Steve?" he placed the sheared rose on a silver plate beside him, "Let's go take a look." ”

They returned to the villa, and when the group entered, they saw Steve, wearing a plaid shirt, sitting on the couch with one foot crossed. Nolan looked at Steve. Wiltens opened his mouth, "Steve, what are you doing here?"

Steve put down the cup in his hand and said, "My dear cousin, I came to see you, and by the way, I brought a message that the Fourth Bank has found Dugardefel." ”

Although Steve bribed two newspapers to attack Katerina, Dugardfield won more recognition after the TV show aired.

"Don't worry. Nolan smiled and asked, "You have to sue me first, why do you like to trouble De Dufel?" You know, more and more people like to deal with it now. ”

Even if Steve's surname is called Wiltens, Nolan is the real ruler of the Wiltens family, and there is a sense of oppression beside Nolan alone, he didn't dare to slack off, so he had to say in one sentence, "I won't tell you that I was put on the side by this company last time, but I didn't expect it to become a climate now." ”

The silver-haired man shook his head and said, "Why can you even sell such a work of art in a spare time?" It seems that the women around you have completely brought you to their level. ”

Despite the gentleness of the family manager's tone, Steve sweated and felt that Nolan was calmly reprimanding him.

Commissioner for International Trade.

At nine o'clock in the morning, seven delegates were deliberating on an issue.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to quit halfway through. A magnetic and pleasant male voice sounded, and the chairman looked up to see a young man with blond hair getting up from the meeting, ready to leave, and said in amazement, "Wait, how should this meeting be voted on?"

The blonde young man said, "My assistant will attend on my behalf." ”

Every month, there are several large and small auctions held in London, England, and almost at any time, people can browse a wide range of luxury cars, as well as celebrities and business elites at the door of the Dugardfield Auction Center.

Their office is on the top floor of the auction center building, with large floor-to-ceiling windows and glass curtain walls behind it.

After a meeting, Su Xiaoqi said to Li Wei, "I'm going to New York the morning after tomorrow." ”

"What's wrong?" asked Levi.

Su Xiaoqi clasped her hands and said, "A Mr. O'Neill invited me to visit, because he took a fancy to a museum and collection of art in New York, and he wanted to buy it with us, so I had to go and see it." ”

Levi knew Lord O'Neill, a wealthy real estate developer in London, and he asked, "What time will you leave?"

"Nine o'clock in the morning. She turned to Levi and said, "There are a lot of things in the company, and this time I need you to stay and take care of this side of things." ”

Levi nodded and said, "Okay, leave it to me." ”

As her private plane landed on the green tarmac of a suburban airport, an interview about her was being broadcast on television.

"Katerina is not unfamiliar to the art market as a whole, she is from Russia, she has Russian and Oriental roots, her father is a professor and theoretical physicist, and her mother is a housewife," the host introduced in the live broadcast room. ”

He nodded on the show, "Hello, Miss Katerina." ”

"Hello. The young woman stepped forward and bowed her head.

The host smiled, "I heard that Dugardfield is planning to build a building, and at this moment, you are the founder of the most controversial and successful auction house. Now in terms of the art market as a whole, Dugardfeld has surpassed Sotheby's and Christie's to become the number one in one fell swoop. ”

He laughed and said, "I'm sure there will be a few women who will idolize you." ”

She smiled slightly in front of the camera, "Idol, actually, I don't have the time and energy to think about this, because I'm too busy!"

The host was still smiling, "I heard that the Dugardfeld Auction Company is preparing a special exhibition, I wonder if we will have the opportunity to witness the light of art under the curtain of these histories?"

Su Xiaoqi smiled, "Dugardfeld accepts online ticketing reservations, everyone has the opportunity to see these works of art, each of these works has an elegant and rich history, and they will definitely not be dusted, we will organize exhibitions in the United States, Japan, Hong Kong and other places before." ”

He asked, "What made Dugardefier present this art exhibition?"

"When I fell in love with those works and started to learn about art, I decided to market the best works of art to the most important occasions in the world, so that they could be seen all over the world, so that we could live with other people's souls beyond the limitations of time and space." ”

The host leaned forward and said, "Now, what is the best gift for you, who has everything and can give a gift to half of the richest Russians on the Forbes list?"

Su Xiaoqi pondered slightly, and then replied, "When I used to say that I liked a little cigar, someone would give it to me." ”

Su Xiaoqi recalled: "In the most difficult moment, I tried to smoke a little Dominica, and the No. 2 cigar was too strong, but smoking them affected my health, so I gave up. Nowadays I like a little wine gifts, and if I get tired of it, if I have time, I will change my lifestyle or try Malakhovka for an afternoon of idyllic life. ”

The host asked curiously, "What do you think of your life in a three-storey private house in a wealthy area of London? get up at 5 o'clock in the morning and eat oatmeal for breakfast, a noblewoman racing horses in Ascote, or a businesswoman living abroad?"

Su Xiaoqi tilted her head slightly, and after hearing this, she burst out laughing, "Eat oatmeal breakfast, this ...... This is Sherlock Holmes?"

"Sir, in the UK only Scots eat this in the morning," Su Xiaoqi blinked her jet-black eyelashes and said, "It's not even just breakfast, they eat this all day long, the British will use a Swedish table like a buffet." ”

The host laughed along, and seemed to be infected by her laughter.

After an ad aired, he said on the show: "This little woman has such a wide range of interests, she tells interesting stories in front of the camera, laughs heartily, and doesn't hide secrets, including what she is thinking, but refuses to answer one question, which is age." Five years ago, she decided to live for herself and began to practice writing novels about Russian boxers in English and Russian, for which she also went specifically to learn about boxing for a year and a half. ”

"In October, the Dugadfil auction house reproduced Kustodiev's Woman with shoulder pads, and Katerina told me that she had followed the clues in the farm to find the white hen that had miraculously escaped, and that she had found 'Kustodiev' on a stool in a farm shop in Malakhovka. This is also unusual for her. ”
