The Rolls-Royce Phantom drove through the busy streets towards Beverly Hills under the envious eyes of passers-by. After 7pm, it arrived at the dreamy place that the world's richest people yearn for - Beverly Hills.
"It seems that your big customers are living quite well here.\?" Yang Dongxu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the luxurious villa in front of him.
Although I don’t know the housing prices here, along the way I saw the bustling commercial streets, the flagship stores of almost the world’s top brands, the luxurious villas by the sea, and the Hollywood superstars who appeared in the crowd in front of me from time to time. They all declare that even though these people are forced to immigrate, the capital they hold is still surprising.
"Haha, Natasha has finally waited for you. Is this your boyfriend? Japanese?" He got out of the car and walked into the hall. Behind him, there were servants holding gifts from the trunk of the car. Several blonds with high noses and blue eyes followed behind. The woman greeted him warmly.
"Chinese." Yang Dongxu emphasized with a slightly serious expression.
"Yang Dongxu is Chinese, Angelina's princess tonight." Natasha introduced to the leading girl, a tall girl wearing a white tight-fitting long skirt and evening gown, but had no intention of introducing the girls around Angelina.
"Hello." Angelina looked at Yang Dongxu with a slight frown, then looked at Natasha before stretching out her hand.
To be honest, when Yang Dongxu said a little seriously that she was Chinese, not only her, but also the girls around her looked surprised and couldn't help showing contempt.
There is no way that with China's current international influence, it is difficult for these girls from absolutely wealthy families to be treated seriously or respected. If it weren't for the fact that Natasha was standing next to him, and Natasha was holding his arm in a seemingly intimate relationship, Angelina might have just shouted back to the security guard to throw him out.
"Hello." Yang Dongxu politely stretched out his hand to shake the other person's hand, and then searched the crowd with his eyes: "Where is Tuoyi?"
The expressions on the faces of the girls naturally did not escape his eyes, and from the superficial changes in their expressions, Yang Dongxu knew that the two sides were not the same kind of people. It seemed that after polite greetings, there was no need to talk anymore.
Angelina was stunned for a moment when she heard that Yang Dongxu was looking for Troy. Because she heard from Yang Dongxu's tone that the other party seemed to be very familiar with Tuoyi, and they felt that they were treated as equals, which undoubtedly surprised her.
You must know that Toy is no longer a mid-level officer in a border unit a few years ago, but one of the helmsmen of a large family's overseas industries. Although he is definitely worse than his father, he still has the ability to sit at a table. Qualifications for talking.
"The party hasn't started yet. It should be on the second floor. I'll take you there. Lena, greet your guests and we'll go up and have a look." Natasha said with a smile.
"No problem, please, you must come over and join me when I cut the cake later." Angelina stepped aside with a smile, looking at the backs of the two people leaving with a thoughtful look on her face.
"Lina, those two people?"
"Daughter of the Gutseyev family, come on, accompany me to greet other guests. My father really hid on the second floor and asked me, the protagonist today, to come down and greet the guests." Angelina's face showed With a standard etiquette smile, he took his little sisters to greet other guests.
However, the young girls following her were obviously not too innocent girls, and they always looked up to the second floor from time to time. Obviously they all know that compared to the young talents on the first floor, or the diamond kings, old and five, those on the second floor are the real big fish.
There are obviously a lot fewer customers on the second floor than on the first floor, and they are generally older. Because there were few people, when Natasha and Yang Dongxu came up, many people looked over.
Some people who knew Natasha smiled and greeted her, but more attention was focused on the stranger Yang Dongxu, especially since he had a standard oriental face.
Compared to Angelina's curiosity on the first floor, although the people here were confused, no one took the initiative to ask. So Natasha smiled and responded to the person who greeted her, while holding Yang Dongxu's arm and walking inside.
After passing through most of the banquet hall, there were a few standard Russians and a few Americans who were a bit blind and couldn't tell the difference. Four or five people were smoking cigars and talking about things.
Seeing Natasha bringing an Oriental over, a Russian sitting in the center seat stood up and gave Natasha a hug: "Haha, Natasha's niece, my little princess, long time no see."
"Long time no see Uncle Andre." Natasha stepped forward and hugged him and touched his cheek.
"Is this the Prince Charming you are looking for?" Andri let go of Natasha and took a step back. First he looked at Natasha like an elder looking at a junior to see if she was thin, and then he focused on Yang Dongxu.
"Yang Dongxu!" Before Natasha could answer, an uncertain voice sounded behind her.
"Long time no see Troy." Yang Dongxu no longer spoke English, but very authentic Russian with a Moscow accent.
This made several Russians who were still sitting and smoking cigars stunned for a moment, and then looked with some surprise at the unknown Asian in front of them hugging Troy.
"Why did you come back here?" After letting go of Yang Dongxu, Tuoyi still couldn't help but ask excitedly. Seeing Natasha standing aside with a look of realization, he teased, "Natasha, you brought her here today to announce your relationship. ?"
His question made several big guys who could understand Russian stunned again, and they looked at Yang Dongxu again.
Troy and the others obviously knew about it, so it was certain that Troy knew Natasha's identity. And knowing Natasha's identity and using such words to tease her, it was obvious that the young man with an oriental face that they didn't recognize in front of them had an identity worthy of Natasha, otherwise Troy would not make such a joke.
"You are still as big-mouthed as ever." Yang Dongxu smiled and slapped Troy.
Tuoyi looked at Yang Dongxu with a depressed look. The meaning was obvious. Brother, am I here to help you understand?
"Toy, why don't you introduce the guests?" Andre urged with a smile.
"Haha, I thought Natasha introduced it to you." Troy smiled and glanced at Natasha: "In that case, let me introduce you. Yang Dongxu is from China. My uncle Ivan's friend is also my brother. We used to do business together."
After introducing Yang Dongxu, Tuoyi introduced a few more wealthy people to Yang Dongxu.
Although Troy said that he was a friend of his uncle Ivan and they had previously done business together. The wealthy people present looked at Yang Dongxu with surprise again.
Toy's family could only be considered second-class in Russia before, even the second-class and relatively low-class, and had no qualifications to be on an equal footing with them.
But before and after the disintegration of the former Soviet Union, Ivan led this second-rate family to suddenly rise strongly, and in the years after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, it continued to develop rapidly as if with divine help. In less than ten years, it suddenly became Russia's most powerful family. One of the top richest people.
This has attracted the attention of many established families, and the most rumored one is that Ivan was able to lead the family to rise like a rocket in less than ten years. One of the Chinese friends played a crucial role.
At first they thought this was just a rumor spread by Ivan to distract other competitors. Because Chinese people were indeed very active in the north during the period when the Soviet Union collapsed, they basically didn't believe this rumor.
But in the past two years, they have become more and more convinced of this rumor, and some are curious to find out who this mysterious Chinese person is, or who the Chinese family is.
Because in the past two years, some wealthy people had no choice but to leave Russia. Almost one-third of the fixed assets they collected that could not be taken away, or some gray assets that could not be traded normally, were eaten up by this Chinese family. The huge appetite and abundant capital shocked them.
"So you are the friend Natasha often talks about. We will have a few more drinks later." Andre was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted Yang Dongxu on the shoulder.
In fact, he should have thought of the other party's identity a long time ago. After all, with Natasha's personality, it was impossible to bring an irrelevant Oriental to such a banquet. But Yang Dongxu's youth was so confusing that they didn't think about it for a while.
"This is my honor Mr. Andre." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"Just call me Uncle Andre. That old Ivan guy is not here, otherwise I will definitely have to talk to him. I went to him several times and asked him to introduce us to us, but he didn't agree. Natasha was still generous."
"That's right, Uncle Andre loved me the most when I was a child, so I naturally want to repay you." Natasha smiled, took Andre's arm, sat down and said.
Compared with the aggressiveness when discussing business, Natasha at this time had a different kind of girl's beauty, which made Yang Dongxu pause for a moment, and then sat on the sofa with Troy.
Andre handed over a cigar, and Yang Dongxu politely stretched out his hands to take it. He didn't say that he didn't smoke or anything, but he lit it skillfully and took a puff.
Although he doesn't smoke, he has played with this thing curiously for a while before. Although he is not very proficient, he can still make a show.
After Yang Dongxu sat down, the conversation between Andre and the others became much more restrained. They basically talked about American industry, real estate, and investment prospects in some Internet industries, and no longer talked about any private matters.
Occasionally, Yang Dongxu would add a few words. Because they all spoke in Russian, Andrei and the other Russian tycoons were naturally kind to him. This made the American tycoons who joined him later look at him with a look. Curiosity and exploration.
After talking for a while, the time was almost up. Several people got up and walked towards the first floor. The party officially started. Tuoyi made an appointment with Yang Dongxu, and then began to be surrounded by people and socialize with each other.
Natasha also socialized, but she basically held Yang Dongxu's arm and introduced him to people he didn't know from time to time. She really looked like his girlfriend.
This made Yang Dongxu look sideways at Natasha more than once. This woman's behavior today was very strange.
