The car drove into the old manor, where the waiter was waiting early, respectfully opened the door, and guided the guests in the car up the velvet red carpet that had been laid out and into the hall of the banquet. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When Zhou Yi walked into the banquet hall with Xia Ruisi in his arms, he even stopped listening to the music in the hall. Xia Ruisi's beauty has a magic that makes people stop breathing, seeing that the guests in the banquet hall have stopped moving, staring here, Xia Ruisi nervously hugged Zhou Yi's arm.

"Don't worry, Charis. You are the brightest star at the banquet, and behold, their eyes are full of envy and jealousy. You should be proud of it! Patting the back of Xia Ruisi's hand, Zhou Yi pulled her towards the host of this banquet, Alfred. In front of Yasifu.

"Long time no see, Mr. Assifuch. It's an honor to accept your invitation! ”

Alfred is a blonde man with a feminine aura. His face was exquisite, no less than that of many women. Some of his long, narrow eyes make him look like a gloomy owl. Such people are often much more difficult to deal with than those with a rough temperament. Especially when he still has the status of aristocrat.

Alfred saw Zhou Yi, his narrow blue eyes lit up slightly, and he immediately greeted him. Affectionately held Zhou Yi's right hand.

"Long time no see, my dear friend. When I heard that you had come to Paris, I have been looking forward to seeing you. It's great to see that you're healthy again. ”

"Where? You're so polite. Zhou Yi shook his hand politely, and quietly withdrew his right hand. It's a really bad feeling to have a man holding his hand all the time.

At this time, Alfred seemed to notice the female companion beside Zhou Yi, lowered his head slightly, and asked politely, "I haven't asked yet, who is this beautiful young lady?" ”

"This is my sister, Charis. Ferguson. It was the first time she had followed me to such a banquet. Zhou Yi introduced Xia Ruisi, which is the rule in a formal occasion. The identity of the female companion is also very important, and not everyone can bring it to such a banquet. Unless the man is prominent enough to ignore such rules.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Ferguson. Your beauty can eclipse all the stardust. Politely grasped the tip of Charis's fingertips and gently kissed the back of her hand. Alfred's performance was imbued with English gentlemanliness, polite but not lesty.

But Xia Ruisi's face was still a little cold, and she was not very used to these etiquette things. Quickly withdrawing her little hand, Xia Ruisi said coldly.

"You've overdone it, Mr. Alfred. You also have to welcome guests, and we won't bother you. ”

"Then I'll be out of company first, Mr. Zhou Yi. I hope to have a deeper conversation with you later. Alfred said apologetically, as the host of this banquet, he had a lot more to do.

"Of course!" Nodding understandingly, Zhou Yi took Xia Ruisi and left here. With his sister by his side, he didn't have any idea of attracting bees and butterflies, and of course he didn't want some wild bees and butterflies to appear in front of him. Charis is his precious sister, and he doesn't want those playboys who can kill hundreds of people at a young age to come and deceive Charisi's feelings.

So he chose a more corner place and sat down with Charis. By the way, he also used his tall body to block the eyes that had been snooping at Xia Ruisi all around.

If it had been before, he might have been one of those playboys who kept hanging around. But now, he is a good brother who will do anything to protect his sister. It was at this time that he finally realized the mood of the fathers who had just come to the banquet with their daughters who had just come out of the cabinet, and sometimes he wished that he could pull out a double-barreled large-caliber shotgun at any time to blow up all these little bastards who came out of nowhere.

Although Zhou Yi used various means to disperse a large number of guys who didn't know whether to live or die, there were always waves of people in the world who were not afraid of death. Especially with Xia Ruisi on the side, this group of people is even more excited than knocking on the medicine, and they always appear in front of Xia Ruisi one by one, wanting to use their charm to gain the favor of beauties.

Charis had been watching the strange male creatures from the sidelines with a zoo-watching mentality, and they seemed to her to be as strange as the gorillas in the zoo. Their pretentious gestures and behaviors have no other effect at all except for adding a little capital to Xia Ruisi and Zhou Yi to talk and laugh.

But this didn't stop the group of playboys from feeling good about themselves, and they scrambled to Xia Ruisi one by one, selling themselves with all kinds of emphasis. In the end, even Xia Ruisi couldn't stand this endless harassment.

"Brother, are all the boring guys you invite to the banquet?" After coldly rejecting a slick young Frenchman, Charis began to complain to her brother.

Zhou Yi really can't say anything about this problem. Because a lot of the time, he plays the same role, except that he thinks he does a lot better than these guys, and at least it doesn't cause disgust from women.

"Don't you have any way? I really can't stand it anymore. Xia Ruisi complained that Zhou Yi's silence was not the result she wanted.

"Let me think about it, you know, this kind of social stuff is never pleasant." After his eyes roamed the crowd for a while, Zhou Yi found the target he wanted. "Come with me, Charis. I guess it's better to have a physics class than to deal with these idiots. ”

"In this case, I'd rather be in Auroro's physics class." Glancing at her brother delicately, Charis put her hand into the crook of his arm. Then he followed his brother step by step towards an inconspicuous gentleman at the banquet.

"Long time no see, Mr. Richards!" The object of Zhou Yi's speech was a gentleman who looked a little old-fashioned, his appearance was ordinary, but his eyes were exceptionally bright. Shows that this is a guy who is enough to show inside. And for Zhou Yi, who knows the details of this gentleman, he is indeed a not simple guy.

Reed. Charlize graduated from the State University of New York with several Ph.Ds. The research in physics can be said to be the top level in the world, especially the research on cosmic rays, which is ahead of almost everyone.

It's a shame that this is an old-fashioned guy. He prefers to study the magical but useless cosmic rays, and does not want to turn his technology into products that stimulate consumption. Therefore, in the eyes of many investors, this guy is not welcome.

"Who are you?" As a research-obsessed person, Reed. Charlize apparently did not leave information about this world-leading investor in his memo. So he could only ask with some embarrassment. "I'm sorry, I've been a little too confused lately?"

"Reed, you're a little too forgetful. This is the well-known Mr. Zhou Yi, one of the largest investors in scientific research institutions in the United States. Another gentleman came up to Reed and mocked with some malice. But when he faced Zhou Yi, he immediately put on a warm face again.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou. I'm Victor. Feng. Doom, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Doom Corporation. It's my first time to meet you, and it's a great honor for me! ”

Looking at the guy who stretched out his right hand to himself, Zhou Yi held his hand and looked at him. Neat blonde hair, a somewhat resolute-looking face with a few less obvious scars. His eyes are a little sharp, and he even has a kind of intentness when he looks at people. This kind of person generally belongs to the type that will not give up until the goal is achieved. And this type is precisely the most troublesome one.

"Doom, I've heard of it. is a promising enterprise! With a little compliment, Zhou Yi didn't say more. After all, a Doom business is not a big deal for him. There are too many of these companies that rely on the vampires of Wall Street to support themselves in the United States. It's the kind of little guy who can't stand any twists and turns, and maybe an economic upheaval can make it go away. So for this kind of thing, Zhou Yi generally doesn't waste time memorizing.

"Mr. Richards, I'm interested in your last research paper on cosmic rays, I wonder if you have any more specific ideas?" Compared with Victor's Doom enterprise, Zhou Yi put more interest in this genius professor of physics. The content of his research was very useful to Zhou Yi.

And when he asks about a topic like this, those who know him well know that he has already made a move to invest. As a financial tycoon, he has enough money to make any research lab or company in need of funding red, and perhaps a single investment can allow a studio to complete several cycles of research without any worries. Such heroic means are completely incomparable to those Wall Street vampires.

Not everyone can say that, though, except Reed. Richards just has that ability.

"Are you talking about the question about the periodic quantum storm of the sun?" Reed thought for a moment and shook his head. "I'm sorry, sir. The research is still theoretical, and I've just negotiated a contract with NASA, and if I want to have further experiments, it may take some time to collect data. ”

In fact, this kind of discourse reveals only one meaning, which is not to accept Zhouyi's investment for the time being. This ignorant behavior made Victor's jealous eyes turn a little red.

"yes, that's a shame." Shaking his head, Zhou Yi showed obvious disappointment. "Seriously, I'd really like to see some research on cosmic storms, but since Mr. Reed said so, I'll wait a while."

"Excuse me, can you? Mr. Zhou Yi! Victor on the side couldn't help but interject. If you are interested in investing, why not take a look at the research project of our Doom enterprises? Trust, we won't let you down. ”

"Oh! Tell me about it! "For investment, Zhou Yi, who has a large amount of money in his hand, is quite indifferent, as long as there is value that can make him return, there is no problem at all.

"Of course, that's what our project looks like." Seeing Zhou Yi nodding, Victor said seriously and slightly fanatically. Being able to get Zhou Yi's investment is a huge boost to the development of his company, and he can't help but work hard because of this temptation.
