Ye Kai took a glass of red wine, brought a plate of food, found a place in the corner, and sat down.

Looking at the people shuttling back and forth in the venue, Ye Kai suddenly felt a little bored.

This was a reception for Ye Ziping to receive people from the business community in Pearl City, and the number of participants was about 200 people, all of whom were well-known business figures in Pearl City, as well as their families or attachés.

Pearl City has always been based on the economy, so the successive secretaries of the municipal party committee take office, all need to appease these business people, although the party leads everything, but no business is not rich, so these businessmen also need to pay special attention, after all, it is now an era of reform and opening up, and Pearl City is the breakthrough point of key investment in the next round of reform tide.

Ye Kai didn't want to participate in this kind of boring drinking party, but his mother Meng Zhaohua said that Ye Kai was not too young, and he should go out to participate in more social activities and gain a long insight.

Although Ye Kai also refuted it, saying that when he was in the capital, he was also a social celebrity.

But Meng Zhaohua immediately retorted that if fighting is also a social activity, Ye Kai is still a celebrity.

So Ye Kai came over and followed his father Ye Ziping here.

However, as soon as Ye Ziping appeared, he was surrounded by bodyguards and a group of leading figures, and Ye Kai himself quietly slipped out and found a place to drink and eat.

In fact, most people will go hungry when they attend such a drinking party.

Although the organizers are well prepared, the drinks are delicious, and the snacks and fruits are very attractive, but the people who were able to participate in this kind of drinking party basically haven't eaten anything? How is it possible to sit down and eat as soon as you come? You must know that their first goal is to socialize, to meet more useful friends, and then to say hello to some acquaintances, and then to think about having a drink or something, as for eating, thank you, you are all foodies when we are?!

Of course, Ye Kai didn't have such an awareness, he felt that eating when he was hungry was a matter of course.

Besides, he only came here to deal with errands, and he didn't have any idea of making friends, in other words, when it comes to making friends, it has to be someone else who comes to him on the pole, right?

While eating and drinking, Ye Kai put his hand into the basket of books and newspapers next to him, and pulled out a newspaper, which was just to pass the time, just glanced twice, and let him notice a little something.

I have to say that for some time now, the various behaviors of the US ambassador to China are quite inconsistent with his own duties, and "small actions" have continued. This makes people wonder whether the ambassador's duty is to actively devote himself to developing Sino-US relations and eliminating misunderstandings and estrangements between the two countries, or whether he is deliberately going to Chinese society to find fault and cause trouble and create new and bigger rifts in Sino-US relations...... What we are looking at is not a cautious ambassador to China at all, but a standard American politician who has taken the initiative to stir up the whirlpool of contradictions. ”

Ye Kai looked at it and felt a little familiar.

It seems that for many years, the style of writing in the party newspaper and party journal has always been so sharp.

However, this situation also made him realize that the Americans will not jump up and down for no reason, could it be that the relations between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait have been a bit abnormal recently, so they will stir up trouble and stir up relations?

But he quickly reacted, and the Americans were approaching the general election.

Sino-US relations are also simple to say, and they are nothing more than "one sight and one sale", the so-called "one sight" is a meeting, and "one sale" is arms sales to Taiwan.

Every time the president of the United States needs public support, he puts these two issues on the agenda.

As a matter of fact, before the Nanmen Incident, it was said that 70 percent of Americans had a favorable or extremely favorable impression of China, and the elder Bush, who served as ambassador to China, was also known as the most friendly US president to China.

The elder Bush is determined to maintain the strategic relationship between the two countries, but he must take into account the sentiments of the American people, and the US sanctions against China will not be permanent, but they are politically necessary.

Under the pressure of Congress and public opinion, the elder Bush imposed a series of sanctions on China, but he still tried to maintain normal relations with China and used the president's veto power on several occasions to oppose Congress's bill to cancel or conditionally extend the most-favored-nation status for China.

Just recently, George H.W. Bush's approval rating was pulled to 39 percent by the sluggish economic situation, which is a very frightening number.

You know, at the end of the Gulf War, his approval rating was as high as 82%.

Under pressure, he agreed to sell 150 F-16 fighter jets to Taiwan and $9 billion worth of F-15 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia. The two deals, one for companies in Texas and one for companies in California and Missouri, were made to fight for the three states that were very important in the election.

The criticism of the US ambassador to China in the newspapers seems to have a lot to do with this matter, because the elder Bush wants votes but also does not want to offend the mainland excessively, so the ambassador to China can only play the trick of inconsistency between words and deeds.

"It's all bullshit." Ye Kai shook the newspaper, folded it, and threw it into the newspaper basket.

When I looked up again, I noticed that there was suddenly an extra girl of sixteen or seventeen years old on the opposite side.

"Huh?" When Ye Kai saw her, he was slightly stunned.

He quickly reacted, this girl was a more famous female host of Pearl TV later, and she filmed a teenage TV series a few years ago, and she was born as a child star, even now, she has many fans among her peers.

It's just that she should be in school now, why is she here?

Ye Kai was suddenly a little suspicious, thinking that her family didn't seem to have a big background on the stage, and it was estimated that she came with someone, otherwise it wouldn't make sense.

But looking at the way she sat here and buried herself in eating, Ye Kai didn't feel like she had come here to increase her knowledge, although most of the people who appeared here were older, but there were also some young Junyan, and it was a pity for a girl like her to give up the opportunity to cling to the powerful.

Ye Kai looked at her twice, and had to admit that it was indeed quite beautiful, if it weren't for the fact that she didn't leave a good impression on him later, Ye Kai would not rule out talking to her.

According to Ye Kai's impression, it seems that when she was in college, she had a hot fight with a black classmate, and then had an intersection with an old man, but finally married the old man's son, in short, it was a very chaotic relationship, and it is said that the old man once showed a sentence, saying that her daughter-in-law was like a dead fish in bed or something.

Although I don't know if this is a slanderous rumor thrown out by a competitor, it is still true, in short, when Ye Kai saw her, he didn't feel very comfortable, and he felt a little weird.

But seeing the way she was eating, Ye Kai felt that this child didn't seem to be so unbearable, right?

"Chen Qiushui?" Ye Kai hesitated for a moment, and finally asked in a low voice.

The girl who was filling a cake into her stomach stopped, raised her head in some surprise, and looked at Ye Kai, as if she didn't expect to be recognized here.

"I'm a fan of yours." Ye Kai stretched out his hand and said that he wanted to shake her hand.

The girl seemed to hesitate for a moment before reaching out and making light contact with Ye Kai, and then quickly retracted, but her eyes involuntarily looked at Ye Kai, as if she was also a little surprised by his youth.

"Have you been filming lately?" Ye Kai asked.

"......" The girl shook her head, her eyes looked at Ye Kai widely, a little cute.

It took a lot of effort for her to swallow the cake in her mouth, and she hurriedly picked up the wine glass on the table and poured a sip of red wine, then she said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I choked just now, and I haven't asked you who you are?" ”

"Leaves bloom, leaves of leaves, flowers bloom." Ye Kai replied with a smile, but he thought in his heart that this girl should not have embarked on the road of no return in the entertainment industry now.

However, when I was about to talk a few more words, I heard warm applause over there, and when I looked back, it was Ye Ziping who had already made a short speech, and everyone was welcoming the arrival of the new secretary of the municipal party committee with warm applause.

"I'm sorry, I had to leave." Ye Kai stood up, thought about it for a while, and left a business card for the girl, "If you have something, you can call me, it's okay, you can also call, goodbye." ”

After watching Ye Kai leave, the girl held the business card left by Ye Kai with two slender fingers, and suddenly smiled slightly.

looks so similar to the newcomer Secretary Ye, but his surname is Ye, and his age seems to be just right, if he has nothing to do with Secretary Ye, then it's too much of a coincidence, right?

The girl carefully put away the flat pieces, but she thought in her heart that she had seen it by chance today, and she really didn't waste the opportunity, but it was not clear whether this Ye Kai was Secretary Ye's son? However, looking at the temperament and appearance, it is excellent.

Previously, she found that Ye Kai's appearance was similar to Ye Ziping, so she deliberately sat opposite him, otherwise, there would be so many empty tables, as for squeezing together with Ye Kai?

While the girl was thinking, a female companion came up, took her arm and said, "Guess who I saw?" Vice Mayor Han's son! Don't you want to get acquainted with some big people, do you want to go over and see if there is such an opportunity to get acquainted? ”

The girl hesitated, was pulled by her female companion, and walked to the other side of the venue.

At this time, Ye Kai had already walked towards Ye Ziping.

It's just that there are too many people surrounding Ye Ziping, and Ye Kai actually found that he couldn't rely on it.
