1240. Opening Guest!
Friends with Bill Gates?
Intellectually, Abbe is a hundred who don't believe it.
However, when he followed Chen Jin and the others and walked all the way into the venue, he found that Chen Jin not only really had an invitation letter, but also Bill Gates's signature on it!
Although it was an electronic hand-signed reprint, it was also a signature! This shows that Bill Gates really knew that there was Chen Jin, and really invited him to the dinner party in person!
Looking at his invitation again? Albert suddenly felt a little embarrassed, because the final payment was "Gates Foundation Los Angeles Planning Group".
For a capitalist society with a seemingly loose hierarchy but in fact a strict hierarchy, the treatment brought by this one payment alone is completely different.
As soon as Chen Jin showed the invitation letter, a special waiter immediately came to them, led them into the venue, and went to the booth specially reserved for VIP guests.
And ordinary guests like Abbey don't even have the qualifications to sit down!
So after entering the venue, Abbey looked at Chen Jin and his party from a distance, and the doubts and dissatisfaction in his heart became more and more intense.
"I heard you just made a joke at the door?"
Suddenly, someone said to Abbey.
He looked back and saw that it was Eric, and his expression instantly turned cold: "It's just that I didn't expect Chen Jin to be more difficult to deal with than I imagined." Can you believe it? He actually had a personal relationship with Bill Gates!"
"It should be through Ma Yun's relationship. Eric carefully analyzed: "When Ma Yun was in the United States, he had several more in-depth exchanges with Bill Gates, although he didn't know the specific content, but Ma Yun was indeed a great entrepreneur and entrepreneur, and they were likely to become real friends." ”
"Will this have an impact on our business?" said Abbey, "If Bill Gates makes a move, even if we join forces, it will be in vain." ”
"Don't worry, it won't. Eric affirmed.
Abbey was stunned for a moment, and then thought of his identity as the mayor of Luocheng, and understood.
Although it has never been confirmed, judging from Bill Gates's actual actions and some of Microsoft's decisions, the US government must have some hidden restrictions on Microsoft and Gates.
Otherwise, if Microsoft is allowed to bloat indefinitely...... It's hard to imagine what heights it will reach!
Since there are restrictions, naturally he will not be allowed to do bad things, and presumably Eric's confidence comes from this.
After the discussion, Abbe suddenly teased, "Dear Mayor, why didn't you even get a sofa?"
"......" Eric was speechless.
Isn't this a clear thing, Eric is just a puppet of the Sti family, and all the upper class people in Los Angeles know this very clearly.
So at this very moment, his wife Madeleine was like a fluttering butterfly, walking around the crowd, and everywhere she went, she was greeted with admiration and praise.
At the same time, Abbey's situation is the same. Although he is the nominal heir of the Furui family, he has not really become the controller of the core power, and others will not despise him, but it is impossible to pay attention to him.
In other words, only people who have reached the same level are qualified to be friends with each other.
For example......
Abbey poked Eric: "Look, the head of the Foundation's Los Angeles went to find Chen Jin......"
"Mondstadt Dulles?" said Eric, disdainfully, "a man who sees the wind and slashes the rudder on both sides." ”
"Or~" Abbey smiled: "You can understand it as sleek?"
Eric was noncommittal.
……
Mondstadt Dulles walked quickly in front of Chen Jin, bowed slightly, and said politely, "Mr. Chen Jin, welcome to your presence. The contemptible is the head of the Gates Foundation's Los Angeles, and you can call me Mondstadt. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Mondstadt. After all, it was the owner, and Chen Jin also stood up politely and shook hands with him: "Thank you Mr. Gates for the invitation, I feel very honored." ”
Mondstadt replied, "You are a friend of Mr. Gates, my most honored guest. In the meantime, I have a reluctant request, could you please be our opening guest for today?"
When Chen Jin heard this, he was slightly stunned, and immediately realized that this was Mondstadt's selling his face!
After coming to the United States, Chen Jin appeared in such a public occasion for the first time. Before this, whether it was the cooperation with the 35 Bank or the decisive departure of the Sti family, there were many rumors in the upper class society of Los Angeles.
Some say that he is stubborn and self-serving, some say that he is cautious and timid like a mouse, and more say that he is ambitious and not good.
For these rumors, if they are not resolved, there will be a great obstacle to the future development in the United States.
After all, doing business ...... It's always about dealing with people. Once you are excluded by the whole circle, it will be difficult to start a business.
Thinking of this, Chen Jin nodded: "Okay, I promise you." ”
"It's an honor!" Mondstadt thanked him earnestly, and then left for a moment.
In the venue, they still gathered in groups of threes and threes, chatting with each other and gossiping. Among them, the most is constantly looking at Chen Jin.
L.A. isn't just the Sti family and the Fury family. It's just that both families are in the real estate industry and have always been keen on political investment, so they seem to be famous.
But in fact, Los Angeles is not inferior to these two, and there are still many people who are even better than them.
Everyone was very curious about Chen Jin.
As the time gradually approached 7 o'clock, the lights in the venue slowly dimmed, and in the spotlight, Mondstadt Dulles took the stage with a microphone and laughed loudly: "Dear friends, thank you for coming and supporting the Gates Foundation. ”
"Today, we thought that a special guest would be the opening guest. Now ......"
As he spoke, with Mondstadt's finger, another spotlight lit up directly on Chen Jin's body!
"Let's welcome Mr. Chen Jin from Huaxia!"
