Chapter 321: Didn't stand up
This woman's head is held high, giving people a very cold feeling.
As soon as the people in the room saw this woman coming in, they stood up at the same time, competing to greet this woman, "Sister Chen." ”
"Sister Chen is here. ”
"Sister Chen is good. ”
……
Bai Wenyan picked up Ding Doudou's calf, put it aside, and stood up as well.
This 'Sister Chen' is not very old, but her status is obviously not low, so that everyone in the room has an extremely respectful attitude towards her.
Li Xi was affected by this momentum, and he almost stood up. But after a little pondering, I did it again.
Do you have something to ask her for, can't you stand up to greet her? What's more, looking at the age of this woman, she is only in her early twenties, and she is a few years younger than herself.
At such an age, it's okay to call yourself a sister in front of others, anyway, it has nothing to do with you. Calling yourself sister in front of yourself, why don't you die?
Bai Wenyan realized that Li Xi was still sitting on the sofa, and was slightly stunned. She was anxious, Sister Chen had an arrogant temperament and was not easy to get along with, so she had to be angry to see someone sitting so big when she came in. Sister Chen is angry, and her dress is about to be ruined.
gently tugged at the corner of Li Xi's clothes and motioned for Li Xi to stand up.
Li Xi glanced up at Bai Wenyan and shrugged his shoulders, without any intention of standing up.
Bai Wenyan suddenly realized the problem, Li Xi just came over with him to watch the excitement, and it seemed unreasonable for him to respect Sister Chen like himself.
I respect Sister Chen, that's because I want to eat this line of food, and I have to ask for others. But Li Xi doesn't have any demands on the other party, no desire is rigid, and disrespect is a matter of course.
What's more, with her understanding of Li Xi, she knows that among the friends Li Xi has made, there are several amazing characters. Those characters, although Bai Wenyan doesn't know them, they also know that they are definitely not comparable to this Sister Chen.
The current Miss Chen Yan is at best Yan Ruyi's agent.
Others respect her, but it's just because of Yan Ruyi. And those who respect her basically need to eat in this circle, once out of this circle, it is difficult to say whether others recognize her or not.
It seems that it is impossible to let Li Xi stand up to greet him.
Thinking about this, Bai Wenyan couldn't help but contradict himself in his heart. If he knew this, maybe he shouldn't have let Li Xi come with him.
Now, I hope Miss Chen Yan doesn't notice this.
Bai Wenyan secretly prayed in his heart, but he didn't know that Chen Yan had already noticed this. In fact, the room was so big, in the whole room, everyone stood up, and only one person was still sitting on the sofa, even if Chen Yan didn't want to notice this, it was impossible.
Seeing this scene, Chen Yan suddenly felt unhappy.
She is Yan Ruyi's best friend and agent. It can be said that most of Yan Ruyi's life is taken care of by her.
Some time ago, Wu Jialu, a billionaire in the city and president of Wanlu Precision Electronics, invited Yan Ruyi to a banquet and specially sent millions to Yan Ruyi to make a dress.
Yan Ruyi's life has always been taken care of by Chen Yan. Chen Yan has handled a lot of things like custom-made dresses, and she is naturally familiar with the road, and a few phone calls have invited several of the most famous fashion designers and design companies in the city.
She originally planned to ask Xu Xiaoman from Chengfeng Clothing to help design it, but Xu Xiaoman already had an arrangement, to be precise, someone had already asked Xu Xiaoman to design the dress.
Coupled with Xu Xiaoman's relatively high price, Chen Yan had no choice but to settle for the second.
The banquet was in a hurry, so Chen Yan invited these seven design companies to design at the same time, and when the time came, she would choose the best one from the dresses designed by these seven companies.
You must know that Wu Jialu's invitation to Yan Ruyi to a banquet is not as simple as simply participating in a banquet. As far as Chen Yan knows, it seems that Wu Jialu of Wanlu Precision Electronics heard that Feng Quanhui and Feng Zong of Ruifeng Pharmaceutical Company have recently established a laboratory and are researching a very high-end project.
And once this project is researched, the benefits are simply immeasurable. With such a project, Wujialu naturally wants to get involved.
But Feng Quanhui's research is still quite confidential, and if he rashly contacts the other party and says that he wants to participate in it, he must be suspected by the other party.
Second, Wu Jialu and Feng Quanhui, as the top tycoons in the city, although they have heard of each other, they are not familiar with each other at all, and it is not easy to contact each other rashly.
Wu Jialu inquired in many ways and learned that Feng Quanhui would attend a banquet after a while. At the same time, I also inquired that Feng Quanhui seemed to be very interested in the popular female star Yan Ruyi.
Wu Jialu tried his best to get an invitation to a banquet, and at the same time invited Yan Ruyi to go to the banquet with him.
The purpose of inviting Yan Ruyi is, of course, to let him test Feng Quanhui at the banquet, once Feng Quanhui reveals his tone, Yan Ruyi can take the opportunity to help introduce Wujialu.
During the introduction, Yan Ruyi would like to introduce Feng Quanhui's recent projects by the way. It is logical that Wu Jialu took the opportunity to propose a plan to participate in a part.
As for why Feng Quanhui was interested in Yan Ruyi, he still wanted Yan Ruyi to dress up carefully at the banquet. You must know that at such a banquet, there are not a few women who participate, in case Feng Quanhui has been attracted by a more beautiful woman before Yan Ruyi approaches, even if Yan Ruyi wants to get close to Feng Quanhui again, it will become extremely difficult.
You know, this is a formal banquet, not a YIN party.
The people at the banquet, more or less, should be more or less exquisite. A man, especially a successful man, will inevitably be criticized if he keeps talking to beautiful women at such a banquet.
It can be said that at such a banquet, you want to really achieve 100% of your wishes. can only be the one who is the most showy at the banquet.
In fact, at such a banquet, whether it is a man or a woman, when participating in the banquet, the psychological defense line is quite low. Matters that cannot be negotiated under normal circumstances are often decided in a single word at a banquet.
Of course, the reason for this is also related to the nature of the banquet itself. The advent of Western banquets, of course, in ancient China, especially during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were similar banquets.
The nature of the banquet itself is to meet friends and seek opportunities for cooperation.
In short, I don't know who created such a banquet first. Anyway, once you get to the banquet, everyone knows what topics to talk about.
It's like Bai Wenyan's 'bragging' comment. When it came to the banquet, everyone was desperately bragging about what they had been doing lately to add dignity to themselves.
Of course, there are also people who don't say it, and there are people with ulterior motives who deliberately exaggerate it. But these are in the minority. After all, those who can be invited to participate in such a banquet are basically decent people, and no one wants to leave a handle in such a circle and be criticized.
Wu Jialu gave money, asked Yan Ruyi to make a good dress, and invited her to join him at the banquet. Yan Ruyi handed over the work of making dresses to her agent Chen Yan.
As for Chen Yan, although she is only Yan Ruyi's agent, she is up to these fashion designers.
Don't look at these fashion designers, they are all leaders in the same industry, and everyone earns a lot of money. But in fact, it is only the middle level of this society, and few people can be as big as Xu Xiaoman and be among the upper class.
For these fashion designers, of course, Chen Yan will not pay attention to them. No matter how well they do in their own industry, when they see themselves, they don't want to politely call 'Sister Chen'.
Therefore, when I first came in, I saw so many fashion designers, and I stood up at the same time, called Sister Chen, and greeted myself. Chen Yan didn't feel much smug in her heart.
In fact, now she has long been accustomed to all kinds of flattery when facing these people.
Isn't it right that you rely on me to earn a living and call me sister?
But immediately after, Chen Yan's eyelids jumped, and she saw that in the hall, there was a man sitting on the sofa in a big way.
This made Chen Yan a little unbearable.
Whose little brother is this? When he saw me coming in, he didn't even know how to stand up? So rude, he dared to bring people in?
To be on the safe side, Chen Yan first looked at Bai Wenyan.
Although she is Yan Ruyi's agent, she also knows that Yan Ruyi, as a popular female star, is very good in some circles, and when it comes to social status, it is actually like that.
Not to mention that it cannot be compared with the power class at the top of the pyramid, even with those engaged in industry in mainstream society, even if they earn more money than the other party, they cannot compare with each other.
This is not to say anything like 'drama' or insulting words in the industry. In fact, in this day and age, no one cares what kind of profession you do.
Whether a person's social status, in high society, can be respected, especially in the West. The first thing to look at is the pedigree.
Those noble families with titles that have been passed down from ancient times are the best golden signboards. The second is to do industry, why do people respect industry?
Take a company that makes automobiles, such as Volkswagen, such an industry, if it is done well, it can be passed on to future generations. That is to say, if you are rich, pass on this industry, your children will also be rich, and even to the grandchildren's generation, great-grandchildren's generation, and great-grandchildren's generation, as long as the business is good, you can continue to be rich.
Of course, bankrupt ones are not nothing. But no matter how bankrupt it is, there is no way to compare it with real estate, or an industry like an artist, which has almost no way to pass on to his children and descendants.
Therefore, when it comes to social status, first of all, it is a nobleman of blood, with a title. The second is those who do business. The status of artists, in the mainstream circles of high society, is much lower, and it is not because of the saying 'drama'.
Chen Yan also knows that even Yan Ruyi still has people who can't be provoked. These people who are not even willing to provoke Yan Ruyi, Chen Yan is naturally even more reluctant and will not provoke.
Seeing Bai Wenyan, Chen Yan quickly judged: A fashion designer seems to have the surname Bai, and his social status is very ordinary.
Then he looked at Li Xi and judged again: I don't know.
In the entire upper class society of Linshi, as the agent of the popular female star Yan Ruyi, Miss Chen Yan can know almost everyone if she doesn't know all of them.
And the man at the moment doesn't know him.
In other words, this man is definitely not a figure in high society.
To be on the safe side, she also deliberately looked at the other party's clothes. For Miss Chen Yan, it is almost easy to judge the value of a person's clothes from their clothes.
If it is a big person in high society, you can also make a certain judgment from the clothing.
The clothes are very casual, not the kind that are specially designed by someone, they should be bought from supermarkets or stores, such clothes, even if they are brands, the value of a set is only a few thousand yuan at most, less than 10,000 yuan.
Therefore, Miss Chen Yan quickly made a judgment: although the man in front of her is a little rich, he is definitely not particularly rich.
Not particularly rich, not upper-class people. I came with this designer surnamed Bai, and when I saw me come in, I dared not stand up to greet me, who do you think you are?
Chen Yan couldn't help but walk in the direction of Li Xi.
As soon as she walked over, several of her attendants immediately followed.
The eyes of the people in the room immediately fell on Li Xi.
The feeling of being watched by one or twenty people at the same time, and the pressure brought by dozens of eyes watching at the same time, Li Xi immediately felt it.
"Is there a mistake that came to me?" Li Xi muttered in his heart.
Turning to Ding Doudou casually, "Doudou, shall we guess the number?" Uncle put his hands behind his back, do you guess how many fingers Uncle stretched out?"
Ding Doudou guessed, "Two." ”
"Hehe!" Li Xi stretched out his hand from behind his back, and it was three fingers.
"Uncle is cheating. Ding Doudou grabbed Li Xi's big hand with his small hand, and wanted to break one of Li Xi's fingers with both hands, wanting to bend him up.
Chen Yan led people to stand still in front of Li Xi and Bai Wenyan.
Bai Wenyan politely called the other party 'Sister Chen'.
Chen Yan didn't look at her at all, and her chin raised at Li Xi, "Who are you?"
"Oh! he ......," Bai Wenyan said, "he is my friend." ”
said and greeted Li Xi, "Li Xi, this is Miss Chen Yan." ”
After all, Bai Wenyan thought about a lot of things just now, so when she introduced Chen Yan to Li Xi, she said her name, not 'Sister Chen'.
She called Chen Yan 'Sister Chen', and Li Xi couldn't call her that.
Li Xi couldn't pretend that he couldn't hear it, but he was still sitting on the sofa, not standing up, and nodded slightly at Chen Yan, "Miss Chen Yan, is it?" ”
said that he was lucky, and he didn't even mean to reach out and shake hands with the other party.
It's not that Li Xi is arrogant, but he knows that even if he takes the initiative to reach out and shake hands with the other party, this Miss Chen Yan will definitely not shake hands with him. In this case, why did Li Xi stretch out his hand? )
