(Cavinka's awesome, I said last night that I would have at least two more, but I didn't do it, I'm sorry, the idea will definitely explode when it comes out, thank you for your trust!) Get up in the morning and code a chapter first, and ask for a recommendation ticket on Monday! Brothers, give me a lot of motivation! )

Élysée Palace.

Zhang Chen and Chen Xi were about to sit down, but as Raffarin's voice fell, the two had to stand up again at Si Guoshun's signal.

At the top of the table, French President Jacques Chirac also looked at the oriental face standing not far from him with a slightly scrutinizing gaze.

No doubt.

This Chinese is young and energetic!

As the president of France, it can be said that Chirac is one of the most powerful people in the world, and standing at the pinnacle of this country, it is difficult for him to look at this Chinese with a smile on his face with the eyes of ordinary people.

Or rather.

He can only look at Zhang Chen with the eyes of a politician.

"Welcome, Mr. Zhang, and this beautiful lady."

"You may be seated!"

Although Zhang Chen's youth and the information in his head told him that this young Chinese was not simple, it was impossible for him to deliberately make more moves.

As the president of France, Zhang Chen's identity is still quite far from him after all, even if he is the president of MSI Technology Group.

In fact.

At present, MSI's influence in Europe is not as great as imagined.

Or rather.

In Europe, the influence of the rose series has not reached that terrifying level.

From the beginning of the launch, to this day, the products of the Rose series have not been officially launched in Europe without any problems.

Even after the European Union approved MSI's products to enter Europe, MSI Technology Group did not begin to deploy a sales network in Europe.

This time, Zhang Chen participated in the global Internet and communication technology summit, in fact, it has the meaning of testing the waters, but whether he will choose France as a breakthrough. No decision has yet been made within the group, including himself.

In Europe, MSI Technology Group's only influential product is not the Rose series, but the bilingual website "Micro-Orld" in English and Chinese.

Long before the sale of mobile phones from the "Golden Rose" series. By the end of 2002, the Micro World bilingual website had seized a foothold in the world market by the end of 2002 by the opportunity of the global Internet economic bubble.

As an internet portal. Micro World has achieved more than 20% of the market share in the global market, although there is a big gap compared to nearly half of the market share of IE, but it can achieve such a rapid improvement in a short period of time, which is enough to make Micro World Browser the most famous new star in the Internet industry.

Of course, in Europe, the influence of the micro-world is far less than that of the Internet Explorer.

Although in the global market, the Rose mobile phone has set off a wave of craze, but in Europe. In France, Rose and MSI are still just a kind of news that is overheated in the media, not a trend.

Compared with the Americans who are facing the onslaught of the rose phone, European telecommunications companies seem to be living a little happier.

But this happiness naturally doesn't last long.

Although Chirac's kindness to China is far greater than that of previous French leaders, the interests of the country are paramount, and Zhang Chen is just a brilliant young man in his eyes.

Since Raffarin invited him to the banquet, it already represented the sincerity of the French government, but he did not expect that it was precisely because of the inadvertent neglect of Zhang Chen that the French added countless difficulties to the subsequent negotiations.

Although it is a state banquet. But after Chirac's speech, the waiters at the presidential residence officially began to lift the silver lids on the plates in front of everyone, which meant that the banquet had begun.

Although it was the host. But Chirac could not entertain everyone, so the heads of delegations of several major economic powers, such as China, the United States, Britain, Japan, and South Korea, were able to talk to the president directly at the dinner table.

Most of the rest were eating what was in front of them or talking to their neighbors.

"Thank you, Mr. President!"

Zhang Chen realized that French food was not so delicious after thanking him for the meal.

As a traditional power on the European continent, the French are not only paranoid about parties, but also obsessed with gentlemanly manners and aristocratic etiquette that are different from those of other countries.

The whole process of French cuisine is extremely complicated.

If it weren't for the fact that there were waiters next to him who had been following the rhythm to serve them, Zhang Chen wouldn't even be able to figure out what he should eat.

When it comes to this, he's definitely a complete dirt bun.

On the contrary, it was Chen Xi, who kept walking on the rhythm.

For Zhang Chen, so a little cheese and truffle is not even enough to fill the gap between his teeth, how can he fill his stomach.

There are not many hard goods that can really fill your stomach at the state banquet. Most people don't go to state dinners just to eat.

But Zhang Chen is hungry now.

Flying from China to Paris, a trip of more than ten hours. He hadn't eaten a single thing except for one meal on the plane. And he was airsick.

I barely ate anything on the plane, only drank a little water, and was already hungry when I answered a reporter's question at the French Foreign Ministry.

It is very strange for people to feel that when they are hungry, they can't stop eating a little bit, and they want to be full right away, but if they get through that time, they won't be so hungry.

Zhang Chen is now the same feeling as before, he can't wait to fill his stomach immediately, and it is very difficult for him to stop halfway through eating.

So.

Even at the scene of a state banquet.

But Si Guoshun soon found out that this guy didn't care about any etiquette, and almost nothing else was touched except for a fork and a spoon in front of him.

If to use the words of the Chinese.

That is a typical gobble, when the waiter next to him has not yet moved, he has basically fully carried forward the spirit of 'do it yourself, have enough food and clothing', and eat his share cleanly.

In Zhang Chen's opinion, the French meal has really become a big meal.

As a matter of fact, the representatives of many countries have already seen that the young representative of China is a little "unbearable to look at."

Sitting next to Zhang Chen was a very interesting foreign old man, it should be said that he was a very handsome old man.

Zhang Chen was puzzled that behind this handsome old Western guy, there was no waiter, and even the tableware in front of him seemed to be different from other people's.

"Are you Chinese not used to such banquets?"

Zhang Chen originally had no idea to talk to this handsome European guy, but when he finished cleaning up the food on the plate in front of him, the handsome old guy actually took the initiative to come to him and say a word.

It's English!

And not French!

The old guy's blue eyes saw that Zhang Chen looked at him a little uncertainly, as if there was nothing wrong.

"Are you talking to me?"

Zhang Chen subconsciously said a word, and when he saw the old man nodding, he leaned in and said with a smile.

"We Chinese like to eat with such a bowl, we don't like to use this, and this, we like to use chopsticks!"

Zhang Chen said as he compared the fork and the knife in his hand with his hand.

The old man nodded, but said something that Zhang Chen was a little surprised.

"I have been to your China more than 20 years ago, and I have eaten very "al" Chinese food at banquets in your country, and I know what you are talking about! ”

After speaking, he even compared the appearance of holding chopsticks in his hand to pick up vegetables.

More than twenty years ago?

Zhang Chen was really taken aback when he heard this, more than 20 years ago, when China had just carried out reform and opening up, this old man had been to China more than 20 years ago, and he could still participate in the state banquet held by the French president today, it was definitely either rich or expensive.

Don't casually think that more than 20 years ago, you could go to China to attend a state banquet just as a foreigner.

Zhang Chen looked at the name tag on the old handsome man's seat, but he was surprised to find that there was no more information other than a simple name, "Rudolph".

How could there be such a low-level mistake in a banquet of this level, especially when the organizer is still the French president representing the French government, and even the name of the guest is not the full name, if this is a mistake, then Zhang Chen will definitely not believe it.

Ruling out this possibility, it is only left to do it intentionally.

Of course, Zhang Chen will not guess who he is, now is a banquet, it is important to eat, the dishes made by the French taste really good, but the number is too small, and the procedures are complicated, almost every meal comes up as the host of the French president will introduce it, and there are all kinds of strange etiquette before eating.

So when the waiter brought a plate of things that I didn't know what it was again, Zhang Chen couldn't bear it anymore.

Even though this is a state banquet, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers.

"Hello, can you bring me some loaf of bread?"

Although his voice was small, several people around him still looked at him with strange expressions.

Ask the waiter for bread at the state banquet held by the President of France!!

If this Chinese is not vulgar, then he has a problem with his brain.

And almost everyone's eyes fell on the plate in front of Zhang Chen, except for the fork and spoon, all the rest of the tableware was as good as new, and it had not been eaten once.

Oh, my God!

Isn't this Chinese all the programs just now---

Even the waiter standing behind him looked at Zhang Chen with a somewhat strange expression.

Just when he didn't know how to answer Zhang Chen's question, the handsome foreign guy sitting next to Zhang Chen actually said a word to the waiter.

"Young man, you can also bring me some loaves of bread, it would be better if you added some cheese!!" (To be continued.) )
