Chapter 320: The Man (2/2)
Chapter 320: The Man
The banquet had not yet officially begun, and it was obviously inappropriate to go directly to the main hall to meet the guests, and Berlusconi was about to go upstairs to rest for a while, when the butler who received a call from the outer bodyguard at the entrance of the staircase quickly followed.
"Sir, I just received the news that the man's car has entered the manor, and it is estimated that it will arrive in 5 minutes"
Berlusconi looked up at the clock in the foyer, there were only five minutes left before the official start of the banquet at eight o'clock, and the guy really stepped on it.
"Barbara, come with me, and we'll go meet this guest together." Berlusconi waved to his daughter, who had already walked upstairs, and turned to walk downstairs.
When Barbara came out with her, she felt a little awkward, she really couldn't understand who could make her father pay so much attention to her, and even personally greet her at the door.
"Dad, are we going to meet the President of the United States?"
"That's not the president of the United States, but he's more famous than the president of the United States... Well, you'll know why Dad did this when you meet him. Berlusconi didn't immediately explain it to his daughter, but walked briskly forward.
When she reached the end of the garden, Barbara was stunned, because from a distance, there was a taxi parked in front of the manor, and she blinked vigorously, yes, that is an ordinary taxi, the guy my father said, is here to come?
Before they met, Barbara had already drawn a big question mark in her heart, and Berlusconi was a little confused, he turned his head to look at his butler, and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?" ”
Under the pressure of his gaze, the butler replied tremblingly: "The outsiders said that the person did come by taxi, and they checked the invitation, and the information on it will definitely not be wrong." ”
Berlusconi let out an "oh", and without pausing, he walked quickly.
Seeing the prime minister of his country walking towards him, the taxi driver who got out of the car and was about to open the door for someone stood there in a daze, but fortunately he was still conscious, and finally did not forget to quickly open the car door.
Lin Mingyang tidied up the position of the bow tie in the rearview mirror of the car, and as soon as he stepped out of the car with half a foot, he saw Berlusconi greeted him warmly.
"Oh, my God" Barbara, who was standing not far behind Berlusconi, covered her mouth in surprise, at this moment she couldn't believe her eyes, her father insisted on waiting for the guest, it was actually him
"There was a little accident when I came, so I shouldn't be late."
Lin Mingyang's words were apologizing to his master, but there was no guilt in his tone.
"Of course not, in fact you came just in time."
When they first met, the two were familiar with each other like old friends for many years, and there was no such restraint in the conversation, Berlusconi laughed, and soon he noticed the dress Lin Mingyang was wearing, with Berlusconi's well-informed eyes, he was surprised to find that he had never seen this style of dress.
Compared with the traditional dress, Lin Mingyang's dress can be said to be unusual, in addition to the traditional bow tie and scarf, the collar has added a new and improved tie and collar flower, which increases the sense of modern fashion while being elegant and solemn.
Berlusconi saw the shadow of the fusion of many elements such as Chinese stand-up collar, Tang costume, Scottish skirt, Korean version and so on from Lin Mingyang's dress, which made him feel a little surprised. Of course, there is more of a sense of pride in his heart, and the more formal Lin Mingyang dresses, the more important he attaches to this banquet.
"Barbara, don't hide behind, come and meet our distinguished guest, sir"
Berlusconi beckoned behind him, and then introduced to Lin Mingyang with a smile: "This is my daughter Barbara, I remember a few years ago when she was still in school, the bedroom was covered with your posters. ”
Barbara, who stepped forward to shake hands with Lin Mingyang, blushed slightly, and Lin Mingyang naturally shrugged his shoulders.
"It should be my honor to be favored by a beautiful woman"
Barbara does have a bit of beauty, but she is obviously still far from the standard of beauty in Lin Mingyang's heart. And Lin Mingyang knows very well that this daughter, who is regarded as the pearl of Berlusconi's palm, has inherited the fine tradition of the Pei family, she and her sister are both unmarried and pregnant, and now they are the mother of two children.
In order to leave a good impression on others that the guests and hosts were happy, Lin Mingyang just said it casually, but he still underestimated his charm.
In the face of the public lover that women all over the world dream of, and can get a word of praise from this superb man who "has the temperament of a real man and has the charm to make a woman's knees weak", Barbara is already overjoyed at this time, and she is a little happy that she can't find the north.
The treacherous Berlusconi heard Lin Mingyang's unintentional, but he was still a little jealous in his heart, and he could disarm his rebellious daughter and surrender with just a compliment, no wonder this guy was able to sit on the title of playboy in Hollywood.
He tried his best to win a smile from the beauty, and he could do it with a gentle fluttering word, facing Lin Mingyang, who was smiling freely, Berlusconi suddenly felt ashamed.
Thinking about Lin Mingyang's age and the wealth and fame he has, Berlusconi suddenly felt that he was lost, if he was a legend, then Lin Mingyang was not a realistic version of the demon?
Swinging his head, Berlusconi drove these strange thoughts out of his mind, and quickly corrected his mentality, and today he is the protagonist.
Berlusconi and Lin Mingyang walked into the hall side by side, and the moment the two appeared in front of everyone together, it was like pressing the pause button, and the buzzing in the hall stopped abruptly, and everyone's eyes focused on the two of them.
Berlusconi was originally the protagonist of today's dinner, and his appearance was not surprising, but Lin Mingyang, who was standing beside him, surprised many people present, and even many people were already secretly thinking about the true intention of this dinner in their hearts. It is clear that Berlusconi put so much effort into organizing this dinner for the purpose of celebrating his birthday.
Under the gaze of everyone, Berlusconi walked into the hall with Lin Mingyang with a spring breeze, and at the same time instructed the butler beside him: "Open a banquet"
――――
Usually this kind of high-end dinner, the guests have to fill their stomachs in advance, although the food at the banquet is delicious, but it is definitely a loss of grace to sit there and eat it. Berlusconi's birthday dinner was full of delicious food, but the people at the table just took a little bit and put it on their plates and savored it. More people picked up wine glasses and wandered around, chatting with acquaintances.
After cutting the birthday cake, Berlusconi was surrounded by all kinds of people, and the butler who was specially responsible for accompanying Lin Mingyang followed him and enthusiastically introduced him to a variety of unique Italian cuisine.
Unlike the people around him, Lin Mingyang came on an empty stomach today, so he didn't refuse the food on the table, and everyone else was busy drinking and socializing, but he secretly hid in the corner alone and enjoyed the food.
Walking around the various tables, Lin Mingyang took the napkin from the waiter's hand and wiped his mouth with satisfaction. At this time, someone had already stepped forward and tried to talk, Lin Mingyang reluctantly coped with a few words, and soon lost patience with these annoying entertainments.
Just as he was about to go into the garden to take some breath, a familiar face from the crowd approached him.
Sir, I didn't expect you to come to this party. ”
With silver white hair, a touch of melancholy, and deep eyes, George Clooney gracefully hugged his girlfriend Elisabetta's slender waist and came to Lin Mingyang with a smile on his face.
The people around them stopped talking and looked at this place curiously, in their opinion, the contact between the two Hollywood superstars at the dinner party is a thing worth paying attention to.
Feeling like he was the focus of the dinner all at once, George Clooney felt a hint of bitterness in his heart. Although George Clooney has been given various dazzling titles in the outside world, in front of Lin Mingyang, he knows that he does not have much capital to show off.
George Clooney has worked hard for most of his life, and he has only been nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor once, and many people are striving for the Oscar but the Oscar is out of reach, but Lin Mingyang has a bunch of them at home like a toy, and winning awards is like a routine for him, so that he often faces a situation where he has nothing to say on the podium as a screenwriter.
People who don't know the truth are because they are too far away from Lin Mingyang, and Lin Mingyang has too much aura on his body, so that ordinary people don't know how powerful this guy is. Only a person like George Clooney who has reached a certain level of status in Hollywood knows Lin Mingyang's true strength.
The more this happened, the more jealous George Clooney became of the young man in front of him who smiled warmly and warmly, and even the tone of his speech became more and more cautious when talking.
George Clooney himself was not aware of this problem, but Elisabetta, who was standing beside him, keenly captured the subtle change in her boyfriend, this scheming and beautiful hostess, and did not feel that she looked at Lin Mingyang twice.
In other words, someone else stepped forward to talk, and Lin Mingyang could send the other party away with a few words, but George Clooney had to take it seriously.
For George Clooney, an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor is obviously not enough to fully praise his efforts as an actor, and his talent in writing and directing has also made Lin Mingyang look at him differently.
It's a pity that George Clooney is overly keen on political expression as a Hollywood star, if only the two films he directed have strong political overtones, but the Hollywood actor is still a leading figure in linking human rights issues to the Beijing Olympics, and he once exerted pressure on one of the main sponsors of the Beijing Olympics, which made Lin Mingyang directly cross him off the list of actors available in his mind.
