Chapter 578 Guests gathered
As time passed, the fund-raising reception also came.
Futian Xinmei helped Xu Liang tidy up his suit, took a step back and nodded with satisfaction after seeing that there were no flaws.
“Okay.”
Xu Liang looked in the mirror and then turned around and said, “Are you sure you don’t want to go with me tonight?”
Fukuda Xinmei shook her head, "I don't like that kind of situation."
She likes to be quiet by nature and is very resistant to crowded situations.
"Okay then. You stay here to have a rest, and I will come up to accompany you when I'm done."
"Yes."
Xu Liang took Huo Gang Turn around and walk outside.
Come to the lobby on the first floor.
"Mr. Xu, the gate guard will tell you the identity and time of the visitor in time."
I quickly received the notification from the other party.
“It’s all arranged.”
“Yes. It’s all arranged.”
Xu Liang greeted him with a smile.
"Bill, Mr. Immelt, why are you two here together?"
The bright lights illuminated the vast hall of three hundred square meters in detail.
Old Gates is here.
Waiters wearing vests are already on standby.
Not long after, three extended Lincolns drove over.
Xu Liang walked out quickly.
Contact Mengang.
Lu Hui hurried over.
Xu Liang took it and put it on his ear. It is similar to a Bluetooth headset. It is small and easy to use.
The person who came out of the other door was not his female companion, but GE CEO Jeff Immelt, whom Xu Liang had met several times.
The two cars in front and behind were security personnel. The door in the middle opened, and old Gates, who was wearing a khaki suit and had gray hair, opened the door and walked out.
The shelves next to it are filled with a variety of drinks and cold drinks.
"Mr. Xu."
The place has been decorated like a banquet by a special reception company.
After finishing speaking, Lu Hui handed over a headset.
The wall lamps and ceilings that are rarely turned on on weekdays are all lit up.
After a simple hug and handshake, Old Gates smiled and said: "Originally I wanted to come by myself, but this old guy insisted on coming with me, so I took him along with me."
< br>"Xu, don't listen to his nonsense, this guy is shamelessly trying to rub against my car." Jeff Immelt laughed.
“Haha, I can’t control these lawsuits, please come in.”
After welcoming the two of them in and looking at the empty hall, Old Gates said in surprise.
“Are we the first to come?”
Xu Liang nodded and smiled: “Thank you both for supporting the reception. You are indeed the first.”
Recruited wave.
The waiter next to him quickly came over with a wine glass.
After pouring a glass for the three of them one by one, he respectfully stepped aside.
"Xu, I would like to say congratulations in advance. After today's reception, Universal Entertainment will become an asset of Hongmeng, and your career will take a further step."
Imel Te smiled.
“It’s too early to say this now, and the help of you and GE is indispensable.”
“Neither I nor GE will refuse anything that benefits both sides.”

Xu Liang nodded and turned his eyes, "Bill, you are a shareholder of Hongmeng and the largest individual investor of Hanhua. You cannot stay out of this matter."
"Haha, don't worry, Xu. Even so. If you don’t tell me, I will help you with this matter.”
At this time, another prompt sounded in the headset.
"I have guests here, you guys should talk first."
"With this old guy accompanying me, you can just do your thing." Immelt said with a smile.
"See you later."
"Okay."
Xu Liang turned around and walked out.
As the host of today’s reception, he needs to personally greet every guest present. When he came to the door, a bald middle-aged man in a black suit came out of the parked car, followed by a tall blonde in a burgundy dress and a white shawl.
Xu Liang glanced at the other person's long legs wearing only black stockings and sighed secretly in his heart.
Women can really resist the cold for the sake of beauty.
Although Silicon Valley has a Mediterranean climate and is not too cold in winter, it is enough to wear such thin clothing in temperatures of more than ten degrees.
Step forward to greet him.
"Mr. Thompson, welcome."
"Mr. Xu, it is an honor for me to receive your invitation."
Mark Thompson, CEO of the New York Times, although his own wealth does not even make it into the Forbes list, he controls One of the largest print media in the world, but his power is that of a small group at the top of the United States.
If Xu Liang wants to gain public support, he cannot do without top media such as the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.
"Mr. Xu, we meet again."
The blonde girl walked up to Xu Liang with a gust of fragrance.
"Hello, Miss Montes."
Helen Montes, when Xu Liang was interviewed by Time Magazine in New York last year, he met a stunning beauty named Christina Yeri who graduated from Columbia University .
I was so bored that I originally wanted to have sex with this French beauty who looked exactly like the 'most beautiful La Traviata', Christiane Yeri.
As a result, by mistake, he bumped into Helen Montes who was celebrating Christmas in the club.
That’s how the two parties got acquainted.
"Do you know each other?" Mark Thompson asked unexpectedly.
“I met him twice when I was in New York last year.”
Helen Montes smiled and nodded, “Unfortunately, Mr. Xu was too busy, and I failed to meet him several times. "
The blame and resentment in the words made Mark Thompson's eyes look strange.
Xu Liang doesn’t want to cause any misunderstanding.
He said quickly.
"I already have a fiancée, and I don't dare to provoke a beauty like Miss Montes again."
After saying this, he didn't give the other party a chance to talk back.
"You two, please come inside."
Helen Montes glanced at him, holding his arm around Mark Thompson's left arm, "Cousin, let's go in."
Thompson smiled and nodded.
"Since Mr. Xu and Helen know each other, we are considered friends and we will get together more when we have the opportunity in the future."
"Of course."
After Xu Liang agreed , led them into the living room.
After briefly introducing Old Gates and the others, Xu Liang didn't have time to say a few words when the guard announced that someone else had come in.
And this time three waves came in a row, Xu Liang could only stand at the door to greet them, and let Lu Hui take them into the living room.
Gradually there were more and more people, and the empty living room became bustling.
"Mr. Xu, we meet again."
After getting out of the car, Powell held Xu Liang's right hand and said.
"Mr. Powell, everyone at Xu Manor is deeply honored to have you here."
"Mr. Xu, you're welcome. I'm also a customer of Hanhua, and we are friends. It's natural to be invited to the banquet."
"Haha, Mr. Powell is polite, please come in."
< br>"Please."
Looking at the two people walking in, the bustling guests in the hall had different expressions.
“I didn’t expect Xu Liang’s connections to be so wide, that even the Secretary of State could be invited by him.” Huang Renxun envied.
"If you have a financial institution like Hanhua that can earn several times net income every year, the president, not to mention the secretary of state, will rush to curry favor with you." David Sun said with a smile.
These wealthy Chinese Americans who have certain connections with Xu Liang, as old customers of Hanhua, were also invited tonight.
"Well, I am not afraid of competition from anyone in computer hardware R&D and operations, but finance..."
He shook his head.
He can't play this thing.
"There are more than one billion Chinese people, and there is only one Xu Liang in so many years. We are not as normal as we are." Yang Zhiyuan said.
"Jerry, among us, you have invested the most money in Hanhua. You have made a lot of money, right?" David Sun asked.
Everyone’s eyes were also on him.
