"Your Excellency Duke, you are finally here, welcome to your arrival!" At the gate of Kensington Gardens, Li Feng took Wu Jianmin and Mervyn Davis, the CEO of Standard Chartered, to greet the guests of the reception.

"John, I'm not late. The Duke of Westminster, who was wearing a traditional English evening dress, also responded to Li Feng with a smile.

"No, the time is just right, hello, ma'am, it's an honor to have you here. Li Feng greeted the Duchess again.

"John, thank you for the invitation, it's an honor!" the duchess naturally replied politely to Li Feng.

Li Feng is really familiar with the Duchess and Duchess, they have met several times, and they have chatted a few times, and while they are talking, it is a young girl who came out of the Rolls-Royce car, but her face is average, Li Feng knows that this is the eldest daughter of the Duchess and Duchess, and the only one of the Duke's children has just reached adulthood, and it seems that she was pulled by her parents to attend the drinking party tonight.

The Grosvenors have three daughters and one son, and the eldest daughter was born in 79, and now she is just an adult, the second daughter was also born in 81, and the third is Xiao Zhengtai Hugh Grosvenor, the future duke, was also born in 91, and the youngest daughter was born in 92.

As for the duchess, she is not an ordinary person, her father is an ordinary official, only a lieutenant colonel, but the family is a traditional British nobleman, and the ancestors can be traced back to King George II and the great Russian poet Alexander Pushkin.

In short, these families have an orderly inheritance, and they have received the strictest aristocratic education since childhood, and they all grew up with a golden key.

……

In addition to the Duchess and Duchess, the consuls and dignitaries of the major consulates on Kensington Garden Street, the wealthy people, the nobles and dignitaries of the City of London, celebrities, wealthy families, group executives and other high-class people have either set off for Kensington Garden Street, or have already arrived and wandered around the mansions.

For example, the ambassadors and consuls of the United States and Huaxia in London, the Duke of Grosvenor and Diana's Spencer family, the senior management of the Grosvenor Group, etc., finally with the final arrival of the new prime minister with his wife, Prince Charles and the new lady, the reception officially began.

In Villa 19 on Garden Street, Kensington, fortunately, Li Feng renovated it before moving in, and built a banquet reception hall on the first floor of Villa 19, with an area of more than 500 square meters.

Wu Jianmin spoke on stage as the new chairman of Standard Chartered, although everyone knew that the smiling young man standing in front of the stage was the final controller, but at least on the surface, Li Feng was only a small shareholder of the new Standard Chartered.

It can be said that for Li Feng's old and spicy and low-key, everyone vibrated in their hearts, after all, Li Feng is still a young man, but in the face of such a scene, he chooses to be willing to hide behind the scenes and manipulate everything, no matter how you look at it, it is the old fox who will choose.

Although Li Feng is no longer low-key, after all, the top 10 rankings on the Forbes list, no matter how low-key he is, he can't be low-key, but at least Li Feng has never been interviewed by the media, and he can only occasionally see photos taken by the media, which is the essence of being a low-key person and doing things in a high-profile manner.

It can be said that Li Feng is the kind of person who can always hear his reputation, but many ordinary people are typical people who only hear his voice and do not hear him.

That's what happened to the reception, it was nothing more than thanking the guests for coming, what hello, hello, hello, everyone, in a burst of applause, as Wu Jianmin walked off the podium, the cocktail party officially began.

……

After the start of the cocktail party, it was naturally very lively, the whole venue was full of people, forming a small circle one by one, and some people were wandering around or talking, or discussing their own career development, etc., Li Feng, as the host, was naturally one of the focal points of the scene, and from time to time someone came forward to say hello.

At this time, there was a circle of people standing beside Li Feng, including the ambassadors of Huaxia and the United States in London, Prince Charles, the Duke of Grosvenor, the old Earl Spencer and other bigwigs in the venue, which naturally became the center of the venue.

"John, I've heard of you since I was in the United States, but it's the first time we've met, so it's a pleasure to meet you, and thank you for the invitation. Philip Lader, the new U.S. imperialist ambassador to the United Kingdom, who was appointed in August and arrived in September, greeted Li Feng with a smile.

"Yes, Philip, I haven't congratulated you yet, how does it feel to be an ambassador?" Li Feng quipped with a smile.

As for the ambassadors of the US imperialism, Li Feng felt very funny after learning about it, 30% of the ambassadors of the US imperialism are considered to be bought, yes, you heard it right, many of the ambassadors of the US imperialism can be 'bought', which can be regarded as an open sale of official positions and lords in the political arena of the US imperialists.

After all, the presidential election of US imperialism is a thing that costs money, and through this way, we can get enough campaign funds, and those ambassadors of US imperialism all need to be nominated by the president, and then passed by the two houses.

In the next presidential election, if Li Feng is willing to participate, for example, to help George W. Bush raise the most political donations, if Li Feng is interested, he can also launch an ambassador status.

This is already the unspoken rule of US imperialism, after each president takes office, those ambassadors of small countries, even such as ambassadors to the United Kingdom, can get through political donations, and the number of ambassadors basically accounts for about 30% of all ambassadors, which is also one of the ways to raise campaign funds for the presidential election.

……

And the Philip Ryder in front of him, as far as Li Feng knows, is the position he got after a large amount of political donations during last year's election. It is said that Philip raised millions of dollars in political donations to support Zipperton and eventually got the position.

Naturally, Philip Ryder is not an ordinary person, he is also from a famous and wealthy family, and his family assets are hundreds of millions or even 1 billion US dollars, and it is still very cost-effective to spend millions of US dollars to get a position as ambassador to the UK.

Listening to Li Feng and Phillip Ryde's jokes with each other, a group of people who knew the Tao of the Tao laughed one after another, after all, it was really funny to think about such a thing.

After all, the people who are chatting together are all characters, and there is no need to grasp the 'open' secret of the US imperialism and even Western countries, in fact, it is not only the US imperialists, even those countries in Europe, many of them are basically like this.

There is no way, who made the process of running for president in these countries basically the same as that of US imperialism, which was originally inherited from Europe, after all, it is said that it is the same ancestor and the same lineage.

For Li Feng, who is accustomed to the political system of China in his previous life, he was really surprised when he first learned about the strange unspoken rules of Europe and the United States.

Think about how difficult it is for Huaxia to become an official, if you want to be the ambassador of a country, how long does it take to get through, but in Europe and the United States, you can directly 'buy', and you can really do whatever you want if you are rich.

……

"Guys, I'm sorry, you guys talk slowly, I need to go around. ”

After chatting with everyone for a while, Li Feng suddenly said goodbye, after all, as the host of tonight's cocktail party, he always has to turn around and say hello to the crowd from all sides, which is the basic etiquette of such a cocktail party, and everyone is also very clear, and they immediately spoke out one after another.

"Okay, John, go get busy, come over and talk when you're free. ”

"John, Cheers!"

"Good luck!"

“…”

"John, please wait a minute, I'm going to go around, do you mind if I come with you?"

Li Feng touched the drinking party with everyone, took a sip and was about to turn around and leave, but it was Lord Spencer who suddenly spoke, which made Li Feng surprised for a while.

However, after seeing Charles and Grosvenor's faces moved, Li Feng reacted, and it is estimated that people are going to ask about the situation of the former princess Diana.

"Oh, Mr. Earl, it's my pleasure if you're willing!"

At this time, the rest of the people should also know that the former earl of the princess family should have something to talk to Li Feng, so he deliberately made an excuse and joked a few words, and in the end, Li Feng and Earl Spencer turned around and left the crowd with a smile.
