Happy events always follow.

When he went home at night, before he had parked the car, Huang Jingping ran out, still holding something in his hand, "Yiping, look at it!"

"You slow down," this girl, Feng Yiping hurriedly dropped what he was doing to greet him, "Slow down, what should I do if I fall, what should I do if I step on the air?"

"People are happy, besides, I'm not a porcelain doll," Huang Jingping said with disgust, and raised the thing in his hand at him, "Look at what this is?"

Feng Yiping now feels more and more that these organizations in the American community are really more troublesome than the neighborhood offices in China.

"Where," Huang Jingping only showed him the payment first, "the consulate in San Francisco,"

Oh, the invitation from the consulate? As soon as he thought about it, he knew that it must be related to the National Day.

Sure enough, "I sincerely invite you to attend the reception for the 52nd anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China held at our embassy on September 28th,"

Huang Jingping looked at him, her face was full of pride, they had never dealt with the consulate, and it was an affirmation to receive such an invitation.

Feng Yiping is not as proud as her, and her brother has also been in Zhongnanhai and interviewed several bigwigs, so such an invitation is just a sprinkling of water.

"So there are people here who know about us," Ms. Huang said happily.

"Do you want to go?" Feng Yiping scratched her nose.

"Yes," Huang Jingping said with a smile, "In your words, this should be the highest gathering I have ever attended,"

"Then we'll go!"

"Of course we have to go, tomorrow at noon, we'll go to San Francisco to buy clothes,"

…………

Union Square, San Francisco. There are all the decent shopping malls in San Francisco in the surrounding area, which is equivalent to Xidan and Wangfujing plus International Trade in the capital, or Nanjing East Road West Road in Shanghai, plus Huaihai Road, or Manhattan in New York.

There are a lot of Silicon Valley companies in this area. Life is getting more and more difficult, and many American people, the more they want to tighten their belts to live, Feng Yiping follows Huang Jingping to come here to fight.

This is also something that can't be helped, the Armani set that Feng Yiping bought earlier, and he didn't have a chance to wear it before, but it didn't fit well anymore, and he wore it to such an occasion. Obviously not dignified enough.

Huang Jingping is now familiar with various men's clothing brands, and took him straight to Armani's store to customize this thing, they don't want to play it now, and it's too late to say it, or buy ready-to-wear clothes, plus matching shirts, ties, belts, leather shoes, business card holders. A complete set adds up to nearly 10,000 US dollars.

But. Huang Jingping's own clothes are more troublesome, and she is not satisfied with several specialty stores, "Or, let's order a cheongsam?"

"It's not good. Huang Jingping thought for a while, "I feel that I can only look better in a red cheongsam,"

On such an occasion, it is not appropriate to wear a red cheongsam. You can't steal the limelight from the master.

"It's okay," Feng Yiping thought about it for a moment, "I should be able to discuss a good plan with my master,"

…………

There are still flames burning in the ruins of the World Trade Tower, and rescuers are still searching for possible survivors, and the rescue and post-mortem clean-up will continue for a long time.

At the same time, American diplomats, busier than rescuers, fly around the world, enlist the support of the countries of the world, enlist the support of allies to send troops, fight for the territory of Afghanistan, allow coalition forces to be stationed, use their military facilities.

This series of actions makes people like Huang Jingping who don't understand and don't want to understand these things know, "Is it going to be a war?"

"It has nothing to do with us," Feng Yiping said, holding her hand, "Let's just focus on our own business." ”

When Pakistan finally got the support of Pakistan, everything was ready, and the guns were loaded, the United States issued an ultimatum to the Taliban regime, "hand over the top members of al-Qaeda to the United States, release all imprisoned foreigners, protect foreigners in Afghanistan, and let the United States inspect all the training camps."

The Taliban regime, which is already aware of the coming storm, has forcefully rejected the demands of the Americans, and has arrogantly declared that it is an insult to itself to talk to non-Muslim leaders.

For example, through the embassy in Pakistan, they asked the United States to provide evidence and let them sue bin Laden themselves, but the United States refused, and they gave in, so they sent bin Laden to a neutral country.

At this time, everyone on earth knew that war was imminent.

At this time, in front of the Consulate General in San Francisco on Laguna Street, it was a little lively.

Today, California Governor Davis, together with a number of government officials, such as the Speaker of the State Assembly, the Comptroller and the Mayor of San Francisco, as well as the consul generals of many countries in San Francisco, as well as representatives of overseas Chinese, international students, and Chinese-funded institutions in Northern California, a total of more than 600 people, were invited to attend the reception for the 52nd anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Sure enough, the more formal occasions are attended abroad, the higher the proportion of female dependents wearing traditional clothes, and it should also be in front of the temporary security inspection device, and more than 80% of those female compatriots are wearing cheongsams.

Another thing in common is that the bags they are holding in their hands, large or small, are very uniform in the square checkered style of LV.

Feng Yiping and the two of them who came in made people feel a little unpredictable, saying that they were students, but their temperament was not very similar, and they were too young.

Moreover, the heads of various chambers of commerce in Northern California were present today, and everyone generally said that they had never seen this person.

The deputy consul general who welcomed the guests knew Feng Yiping's details, young age, fame, and wealth, all of them, and he had already entered the eyes of several leaders.

"Hello," when shaking hands, Feng Yiping was guessing his level, the ambassador to the United States, must be at the deputy ministerial level, so what level is this deputy consul general?

The reception was held in the banquet hall of the consulate, very Chinese, all kinds of leaders spoke, our leaders finished speaking, the leaders of the United States spoke, Feng Yiping and them, and those people around them did not know each other, and they did not want to know each other, he was more or less, and felt a little bored.

Huang Jingping feels okay, the short cheongsam she wore today should be the most outstanding among so many people at the scene, which attracted the attention of many aunts at this time.

Feng Yiping's rough plan, the master in the shop finally completed it very well, the main body is lake blue, there are some dark flowers on it, and the hem of the cheongsam is a black background with a few large red and white flowers, and the effect of contrasting colors, the overall elegance and eye-catching.

But soon, the thing that made Feng Yiping refresh was staged, and after the leader spoke, a consul came to the stage to sing "My Chinese Heart", and then, a singer sang "My Motherland Mother", this guy has a bit of a trend towards theatrical performances.

However, the new business card holder that was specially bought did not come in handy, and when everyone was vying to take a photo with the consul general, the governor and mayor, the overseas Chinese leader, and the chairman of the general association, the two of them quietly withdrew.

I don't know what's going on, he can talk to those small bosses in Chinatown, but he can't seem to talk to these overseas Chinese with status, status and capital.

The main reason is that these overseas Chinese can flow freely in several identities very smoothly, and he sometimes can't keep up.

Hehe, it's not just the two of them who are leaving, at the gate, the deputy consul general who greeted him just now is bidding farewell to the granddaughter of a Xinhai revolutionary father.

"Go back now?" asked the Deputy Consul General enthusiastically.

"Yes, I'm sorry, my girlfriend is a little uncomfortable,"

"It doesn't matter, the president of the Chinese Medicine Association is also here today, do I want to introduce you to it?"

"No, because I'm going to a reception today, I was a little excited yesterday, I didn't rest well, and I was a little dizzy,"

"Hehe, I have to go back and have a good rest, in this way, I will give you a business card, if you want to recuperate, call me, I will introduce you to the people of the Chinese Medicine Association,"

"Thank you," Feng Yiping accepted today's first business card.

"If you have other things, you can also call me, you're welcome, you remember, the embassy or consulate is your home,"

It should be the first time to meet, and the deputy consul general spoke, just to the point.

"Okay, I'll be sure to ask you for help if I need it," (To be continued.) )
