New York's Times Square, formerly known as Lang Ek Square, was later renamed Times Square because of the headquarters building established here in the early days of The New York Times.

Times Square is located in Manhattan's busiest neighborhood and is also known as the 'Crossroads of the World'!

Broadway theaters, dazzling neon tube advertisements, and television-style billboards have become symbols of New York and reflect Manhattan's strong urban character. Approaching Times Square, surrounded by colorful neon lights and street performers, the big screen of news, song music videos, and TV shows is enough to shock everyone's eyes.

Many global media outlets, including the American Broadcasting Corporation, have set up studios in their office buildings next to Times Square, trying to use the bustling backdrop to undermine political influence.

In the minds of most people around the world, New York's Times Square is the most luxurious and lively place on the planet, and it also represents an iconic attraction of New York as the center of the world economy.

All in all, the heart of New York is Manhattan, and the heart of Manhattan is New York's Times Square, where the annual New Year's Eve festival attracts the attention of the world.

When Xiao Feng's motorcade was about to arrive at Times Square, they were already restricted by the police, and the two families had to walk to the landmark 'New York Times Building' in Times Square under the protection of bodyguards!

With only 52 floors, the New York Times Tower is 319 meters tall, the seventh tallest building in the United States and the 57th tallest building in the world, and is the landmark of Times Square.

Since Dream Restaurant aspires to become the world's most luxurious and extravagant top restaurant, it is natural that it will not miss the bustling city of Manhattan, and the Manhattan branch of Dream Restaurant officially opened in the New York Times Building on New Year's Day last year.

Located on the 18th floor of the Times Tower, the 'Dream Restaurant' has floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the entire Times Square and has the best view.

Commercial real estate rents here are prohibitively expensive, with annual rents of almost $5,000 per square meter. This means that the 1,200-square-meter business space of the 'Dream Restaurant' has an annual rent of more than 6 million US dollars!

For an ordinary store, such a rent is simply fatal, but for the deep-pocketed 'Jinghu Group', this is not a problem. In Xiao Feng's view, it is better to rent a store than to buy a property. This can be seen from the operation of chain enterprises such as "Mengyao Coffee" and "Colorful Sunshine".

This time to open a store in New York, Xiao Feng is naturally no exception.

Through George Morgan's connections, Xiao Feng bought the property on the 18th floor of the New York Times Building, with a total value of up to $70 million!

The unit price of nearly $60,000 is far more than the price of Mengyao Coffee's headquarters office on the top floor of the World Financial Center, but it is also worth the price.

After all, no matter how the world economy goes, Manhattan's housing prices will not dive, and what you buy is what you earn!

Opening of the 'Dream Restaurant' in Manhattan. Let Wall Street's financial elite applaud their hands, after all, they don't have to fly to Los Angeles to taste the most authentic 'dream steak'.

Perhaps for ordinary people, the $368 'fantasy steak' is too expensive, but for these gold-collar and super-rich people who earn millions or tens of millions of dollars a year, it is just a small meaning.

If you encounter something worth celebrating, it is normal to open a bottle of 2888 'Xiao's wine' for 3 years.

Therefore. The 'Dream Restaurant' quickly became Manhattan's new favorite, although Michelin has not yet rated it. But all the customers who have visited are full of praise.

This time, Xiao Feng arranged the location of watching the New Year's Eve ceremony in his own restaurant, so that he could not only avoid crowding in the square, but also enjoy food while watching the performance.

Of course, if there are only two people, Xiao Feng and his wife. They didn't mind huddling in the crowd to enjoy the enthusiasm of the New Year's Eve, but they were dragging their families with them, and the temperature outside was below zero, so Xiao Feng was not willing to take this risk.

When Xiao Feng and Xiaobei's family arrived at the 'Dream Restaurant', George Morgan, Smith Walton and Andy Mellon were already waiting in the restaurant with their families.

Compared to the situation of Christmas family reunion. Europeans and Americans tend to celebrate New Year's Day more fashionably, and George and others can slip out of the dreary big family and participate in this small gathering.

When they arrived at the restaurant, the children went to the children's playground in the corner to play, Romeo and the others were used to taking care of Xiao Qi, and they were very good at taking care of their younger brothers and sisters. In addition, there are nannies and restaurant waiters watching, and a few parents don't have to worry, they chatted with wine glasses.

"Xiao, today's performance is quite exciting!" George and Xiao Feng clinked glasses and said with a smile: "Wait until next season, we can see the wonderful picture of you trying your best to grab points!" ”

George and the others also watched the game in Madison, but when they left Madison, they took a helicopter, and Xiao Feng chose a car for safety reasons.

With the passage of time, the involvement between the 'Mirror Lake Group' in various industries in the United States and the top American giants such as the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family has become deeper and deeper, and the relationship between the two sides has also deepened.

This New Year's Eve dinner is a good proof!

If a reporter breaks into the 'dream restaurant', he can see the third-generation successors of many wealthy families in the United States talking happily with Xiao Feng, which is enough to make the headlines of major media.

"It's good to win!" Xiao Feng shook his head and smiled: "I'm cocooning myself, if I want to be idle and enjoy life, it is estimated that it will take a few years!" ”

From the information revealed between the lines of George and others, Xiao Feng knows that these top American giants actually have some white chauvinism in their hearts, and they don't look down on colored people, especially blacks. If it weren't for the revival of the Chinese nation becoming stronger and stronger, and the Xiao family being the world's top super wealthy family, Xiao Feng might not be able to have a good time with them.

This time, the reason why Xiao Feng did not bring Kobe to the party, but chose Xiaobei and his wife, was nothing more than out of this consideration.

At this dinner, Xiao Feng took out the first year's wine produced by the 'Dream Winery'. It's quite appropriate on this occasion.

Since the last successful tasting at Fantasy Manor, the fame of 'Dream Wine' has begun to spread among the wealthy and the rich, after all, many people have tasted it that night.

However, the annual output of 'Dream Winery' is only 20,000 bottles, and Xiao Feng has to keep half of them for long-term cellaring, and the remaining quarter is sold year by year. The total number of 'fantasy wines' that can appear on the market each year does not exceed 6,000 bottles.

For the huge super-rich market, 6,000 bottles of red wine is just a drop in the barrel, so Xiao Feng has set some sales thresholds, but it is not possible to buy 'dream wine' if you have money.

It is precisely because of various thresholds and purchase restrictions that the sales of 'Dream Wine' in the market have been further stimulated, and the pursuit of it by the upper class society in the United States and China is becoming more and more intense!

Rao is George and others have assets in charge of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, but they also admire Xiao Feng's way of making money.

Aside from the various special ingredients provided by Xiao Feng to slow down the aging and restore health of the elderly of the major families, Xiao Feng's magic power of turning stones into gold also amazed them.

Take 'Dream Winery' as an example. Previously, it was a small winery with an annual production of 6,000 bottles, and even under the name of 'Beverly Hills', it sold for less than $200 a bottle.

However, after Xiao Feng took over the 'Palace of Love', he underwent a large-scale transformation and planted new varieties of wine grapes cultivated by himself, and in just a few years, earth-shaking changes have taken place.

At a conservative price of $10,000 per bottle, Dream Winery can generate $200 million a year for the Xiao family, at a pitifully small cost.

Now, the market valuation of the entire 'Fantasy Estate' has been raised to more than $3 billion with the launch of 'Dream Wines'. In just three years, it has achieved nearly 20 times the increase in value, which is simply a myth.

In this case. Xiao Feng's status in the top circles of the United States is getting higher and higher, not only because of his growing wealth, but also because of his magical investment vision and ability.

According to incomplete statistics from the media, since the 'Mirror Lake Group' invested in the United States, the asset appreciation of various industries is much higher than the industry average, and there is no record of failure.

Take 'Dream Ranch', for example. Xiao Feng has invested a total of $1 billion in the purchase of ranches and the construction of infrastructure, but now the conservative market value of 'Dream Ranch' has exceeded $4 billion!

As a super ranch with an annual output of 50,000 'dream beef cattle' and an annual profit of more than 600 million US dollars, it is unanimously optimistic about investment institutions, and the stock price of 4 billion US dollars can only be regarded as low.

When Xiao Feng and others were enjoying food and wine at the 'Dream Restaurant'. From time to time, floor-to-ceiling windows can be seen through the various performances taking place in the square, and of course, on the walls of the restaurant, a 70-inch LED TV is also broadcasting the New Year's Eve performance in real time.

In fact, many super-rich people or big names in the fashion and entertainment industry are hiding in the skyscrapers near Times Square to watch the New Year's Eve ceremony, and the so-called legend of 'having fun with the people' is just a media report.

In the United States, the rich can always enjoy more privileges, although here the proclamation 'everyone is equal', but everyone knows in their hearts that the capitalist world has always been so cruel that there will never be warmth!

…………

The children didn't feel sleepy at all because they had playmates tonight, and they had a great time with all kinds of toys and game consoles in the playroom.

This is also the first time Xiao Feng has taken the children on New Year's Eve, they used to be too young to stand the sleepiness, and the 'Dream Ranch' side is deserted at night, so the New Year's Eve is not interesting.

This time, the team happened to be in New York to participate in the New Year's Eve competition, and it was also a very meaningful thing to take the children to watch the biggest New Year's Eve festival on the planet.

In the past, when Xiao Feng was studying in Haizhou, he also went to the Bund to watch the New Year's fireworks, and he still remembers the carnival when he was young. However, now that he is the father of 4 children, youth and frivolity have long been a thing of the past, and looking at the enthusiastic scene of countless people cheering and shouting in the square, he no longer has the urge to join in.

This time, the General Administration of Tourism of China also invited Xiao Feng to participate in the display of Chinese elements in Times Square's New Year's Eve event, but Xiao Feng finally decided to let Yang Yuanhang participate on behalf of the 'Jinghu Group'.

In order to better introduce and promote Chinese culture and Chinese tourism to the American people, the General Administration of Chinese Tourism, local governments, and the Chinese Consulate General in the United States have been assisting the New York City Government since New Year's Day in 2012 to integrate Chinese elements into this century-old New Year's Eve carnival.

In the event, Huaxia not only showed the world the rich tourism resources of various parts of China, but also showed the charming charm of Chinese traditional culture on the most popular festival stage in the world. This year, the event will feature the 'Jinghu Scenic Area' as well as a number of scenic spots such as West Lake, Jiuzhai and Gou, which will increase the number of international tourists in these scenic spots.

Just now, Yang Yuanhang, who had already joined the parade celebration team, called Xiao Feng and said that everything was ready, and just the noise from the earpiece knew how warm the atmosphere was!

Xiao Feng took a panoramic photo of Times Square and sent it to his neck, 'It's the first time in New York for New Year's Eve, and it feels good!' It immediately attracted crazy retweets, comments and likes from fans.

Although it is now 11:58 a.m. on January 1, 2017 Peking time, any information about Xiao Feng is still a fan favorite. Even many fans left messages, asking Xiao Feng to conduct a live broadcast of the scarf, so that they could once again experience the carnival of the New Year's Eve!

As time passed, when the countdown entered one minute, nearly two million people in the entire Times Square and surrounding areas began to chant the countdown in unison, and the whole scene was quite spectacular.

Even though the soundproofing of the New York Times Building is very good, the countdown to the tsunami can still be heard in the restaurant, and everyone is putting down what they are doing to welcome the arrival of the new year together.

Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with their children in their arms, staring at the crystal ball on the top floor of a high-rise building on the edge of the square, waiting for the exciting moment.

When the countdown reached zero, the crystal ball on the top floor burst out with dazzling light, countless streamers fell from the sky, and the atmosphere of the whole scene also reached the climax!

Looking at this exciting grand scene, Xiao Feng also felt that the trip was worthwhile, after all, there is still a huge difference between live viewing and TV broadcasting. Although it was impossible to experience the moment of New Year's Eve in the crowd, this world's grandest New Year's Eve celebration still left a deep impression on Xiao Feng's family.

The new year is here, and everyone needs to work harder for the future! (To be continued.) )
