Paris on a summer night is both noisy and quiet. In the bustling area, people come and go. And in some residential areas, what time are the lights? The woods on both sides of the road and the noise of unknown insects in the green belt made the night even more lonely.
The bright moon is like a hook, hanging in the blue sky.
A convoy of several luxury cars was slowly passing through the city of Paris. Today, on the evening of June 6, the cocktail party held by Pinault Jr. was not at his villa in the 4th district of Paris, but at a manor on the outskirts of Paris.
The city "Paris", seriously, should be divided into Little Paris and Grand Paris. The so-called "Little Paris" refers to the urban area of Paris within the Grand Ring Road, with a population of 2.24 million and a total area of 105.4 square kilometers.
Intuitively speaking, its area is almost slightly larger than the east and west districts of the capital combined.
Taking the Louvre as the origin and zone 1, it is divided into 20 zones clockwise. The highest housing prices are in Districts 1, 4, 7, and 16.
Area 1 is the Louvre, Royal Palace, churches, etc. District 4 is the downtown area, including Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris City Hall, Paris Police Department, etc.
District 7, also known as the "Bourbon Palace District", houses the Eiffel Tower, Napoleon's Tomb, the Military Academy, the Military Museum, and French government agencies such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.
The 16th arrondissement is located on the west side of Paris, where the embassies of more than twenty countries are located. It has Paris Dauphine University, churches, etc.
So from these buildings and various departments, we know why housing prices in these areas are expensive.
Greater Paris includes the seven departments surrounding Paris: Hauts-Seine, Val-de-Marne, Seine-Saint-Denis, Yvelines, Val-d'Oise, Seine-et-Marne and Essonne. Province. The total population is 11 million.
The suburbs of Paris usually refer to the towns next to Paris in the greater Paris area. It can be understood as the area outside the Fifth Ring Road of Beijing.
In view of the traffic congestion and distance after get off work in Paris, the Pinault family's cocktail party is scheduled to start at 8 o'clock in the evening.
In the motorcade, Dong Lingxi and Jing Gao sat together in a black Rolls-Royce bulletproof car. It was almost tonight that Jing Gao made his official debut among the rich and powerful in Paris, so the best candidate to accompany him was Dong Lingxi. He needs to support Dong Lingxi, who will take care of the Zhaoshi Group in Paris for him in the future.
"Mr. Jing, are you having a hard time?" Dong Lingxi leaned on Jing Gao's shoulder and asked with a smile. She was not like last time tonight: she was dressed up, wearing a sexy strapless white dress, making all the men in the party chase her.
Instead, he wore a light blue short-sleeved shirt and a white long skirt. Wearing jewelry, you are refreshing and fashionable, and you look young.
Jing Gao was in a good mood and was replying to the group's statement this morning that had been stored in his mobile phone. It had been sent back to the country. As long as there was no bias, he could basically tell who would win and who would lose!
There are a lot of congratulatory messages waiting to be processed on his phone at the moment. Nie Yunxi, who was usually in charge of his mobile phone, did not come over this time from China.
"Lingxi, what's so hard?" Jing Gao put down the phone, put his arm around Dong Lingxi's soft waist, kissed her softly on the lips, and asked with a smile.
Dong Lingxi smiled sweetly, leaned on Jing Gao's shoulder, looked up into his eyes, her big eyes were shy and cute, and said softly: "I, Ouyang Wan, and your two beautiful assistants..."
She came back from get off work at the headquarters of Zhaoshi Group in the evening and went to Jinggao's villa to have something to eat with everyone, and found that they were all radiant and had peach blossom faces. It was obviously both rain and dew.
Jing Gao laughed, a thirty-year-old woman is good, she knows how to care for others. However, he usually exercises and maintains himself well, so it is not a problem for him to conquer two or three beauties at a time. He held this plump, mature and beautiful woman in his arms, caressed her with his hands, and smiled in her ear and said: "Lingxi, it's quite hard. But you are my best cheerleader. Otherwise, you will die. Automatic?"
"Mr. Jing, no!" Dong Lingxi replied softly and shyly, lowering her head. She turned to whisper to Jing Gao about the fact that the CEOs of Zhaoshi Group came to the office this afternoon to express their loyalty to her.
After all, she is a beautiful woman from a good family.
…
…
In about an hour, Igao's motorcade arrived at the Pino family's estate on the outskirts of the city.
This huge, aristocratic manor in the feudal era was brightly lit, with hundreds of servants serving the arriving guests. There were cars parked everywhere inside and outside the manor. But the road is still normal.
This manor is so big!
The old butler in a tuxedo was waiting for him. Jing Gao got out of the car first and supported Dong Lingxi, whose legs were weak. The back seat of the Rolls-Royce was quite spacious. He took the accompanying Ouyang Wan, Gu Xixi, Chen Qingshuang, Dong Youwei, Teacher Zheng and others in with him. Go to the brightly lit villa.
"Mr. Jing, welcome!" At the door of the circular banquet hall, Little Pino greeted Jing Gao with high spirits, shook hands with Jing Gao, "This way, please!"
Tonight, a grand celebration dinner will be held in the fashion capital of Paris. A number of major French brands: Kering (Gucci), L'Oreal, Hermès, Chanel, ranging from bosses to senior managers, designers, and top models Wait for everyone to arrive.
At the same time, big bosses, directors, movie stars, and singers from the advertising and entertainment circles in France were also present.
"Hello, Mr. Jing!"
"Mr. Jing, good evening!"
When little Pino took Jing Gao to the banquet hall, top international supermodels kept greeting and paying tribute to Jing Gao coquettishly and boldly. There are also some actresses with more beautiful faces.
Jing Gao alone became the focus of everyone's attention, nodding slightly to the crowd around him. Along the way, it was like being among flowers. Exotic beauties could be seen everywhere, all smiling at him.
It also seemed to be like the scene when President Trump walked on the red carpet of the Kremlin and went to the final place to take over as the commander-in-chief of Russia.
The band in the banquet hall was playing a magnificent piece of music, "The Mass".
With Pinault's power and status, it was common for him to invite the best symphony orchestra in Europe to entertain him at his banquet. Not to mention the Paris Symphony Orchestra? Tonight was of course live music, not played music.
Connie Cruz, the adopted daughter of Pinault Jr., wore a beautiful and sexy one-shoulder red dress. Her fair skin paired with this red dress looked like a delicate, blooming flaming rose!
She stared at Jing Gao in the crowd, her beautiful eyes filled with brilliance. He is really a business tycoon-level figure. In fact, she was somewhat resistant to her adoptive father's arrangement. After all, Mr. Jing was from the East.
This is actually not something that has status in Europe as a whole.
However, only at this moment did she understand his power and status! Her adoptive father came to greet her at the door, and the top ten richest men in France and the top professional managers in the Paris fashion circle were waiting in the center of the banquet hall.
Suddenly, she felt a little unhappy with other supermodels and actresses who were showing off their coquettishness. I am a little envious of the bright, plump and graceful "Ms. Dong" from the Zhaoshi Group holding Jing Gao's arm.
Jing Gao followed Little Pino to the front of the banquet hall, the most central location.
Here, bosses and senior professional managers of top brands are waiting. Little Pino introduced Jinggao in turn.
