Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 650 You still have fun!
The first thing Chen Li did when he arrived in New York was naturally jet lag!
This is actually something that most people need to pay attention to when going abroad. After all, the biological clock is actually very powerful.

Of course~ Chen Li is a young man, so the trouble caused by jet lag is relatively small.

If he came here privately, Chen Li might not even need to experience jet lag, as long as he had fun.

But if it is a serious matter, it is natural to have a good mental outlook, especially this bell ringing ceremony will be videotaped.

Chen Li didn't expect that he would be a listless person when he appeared in the video.

But what to say~ Since the biological clock is so powerful, the effect of Chen Li's behavior of jet lag is actually very bad.

So until the people sent by Howard Wise called Zhang Ruolan, Chen Li had slept for less than an hour.

Fortunately, Chen Li has been wearing short hair now, and he doesn't need to take care of it at all. He just took a shower and didn't spend much time washing it.

After tidying up, Chen Li joined the well-dressed Zhang Ruolan and followed the people sent by Howard to the banquet hall.

Hmm~ Well, this meeting was actually held in the banquet hall of the hotel where Chen Li lived.

To say that it is to welcome Chen Li, it is naturally putting money on Chen Li's face. To be precise~ this reception can be regarded as a celebration reception before the successful listing of Red Pony Technology.

But if it is a special celebration ~ that is not entirely correct, because after the successful listing of Red Horse Technology, there will be a real celebration reception.

Well~ the rich people in America seem to like this kind of reception very much.

In fact, this thing is just like Chinese people like to get together to eat and drink, it can be regarded as a means of socializing!

When he arrived at the banquet hall, Chen Li saw Howard Wise, Ma Xiaoyun and Zhou Hongyi.

The latter two have been hanging out with Howard Wise for the past two days. After all, the listing of Red Horse Technology was actually facilitated by him.

"Chen~ Welcome to New York!"

"I can't wait to introduce you to some friends!"

"Chen~ this is."

"And this one of my closest collaborators, who is"

"Oh~ this gentleman, I think you must have heard his name, he is Hollywood."

"And this charming pretty lady, she is."

When a person first arrives in a place, the first thing to do is probably to meet new friends.

Of course~ the concept of "friend" does not refer to the kind of true friends, but just acquaintances!

After all, the so-called social ~ is actually the case!

From ignorance to acquaintance, from acquaintance to acquaintance, and then we can talk about cooperation~even deep friendship!

Today's reception is very much in line with Chen Li's expectation for a gathering of foreign high society. Well, how can I say it~ it's rich~celebrity~handsome guys~beauties and good wine!

Ha~ It is said that it is a reception, and wine is indeed an indispensable thing in this party, but in fact, wine is also the least important thing in this reception.

Just like this moment~ Chen Li is holding the rumored Lafite from 82 in his hand. This is specially prepared by Howard West for Chen Li.

As for the reason, it was because when Ma Xiaoyun and Howard Wise were bragging, they said that the Chinese people's favorite red wine was 82-year-old Lafite.

Uh~ well, in fact, Ma Xiaoyun is also a person who likes to watch Hong Kong movies, so when bragging and chatting, he subconsciously talked about Lafite in 82.

In fact, he is quite familiar with the aging of red wine of the Lafite brand.

Of course~ the Lafite that Chen Li is familiar with and the authentic Lafite are actually two different things, because at that time there was real Lafite in the place where he was working, but he certainly had no chance to drink it himself.

Don't mention him~ Even those guests who have paid for wine can drink the real thing, there are very few of them.

And to be honest, Chen Li himself doesn't like to drink red wine.

If you really want to talk about it, the champagne Chen Li thinks it is acceptable, and the sweet sparkling wine Chen Li thinks it is OK.

But other red wine. Chen Li can't drink it~ and I can't get used to it!

Of course~ If you really want to chat, Chen Li can still chat with people for a while, after all, he met a lot of people in his previous life, and there are also some people who know more about red wine.

It's just that what those guys said may not be true. Chen Li has suffered from this before.

He showed off some of the knowledge points that others told him, but in the end the real expert pointed out the mistakes, that is, Chen Li had a thick skin at that time, otherwise it would be quite embarrassing!
So Chen Li never took the initiative to talk about red wine with people later, because he really didn't understand.Even if someone occasionally chats with him~ he will only be a fan!

But even though Chen Li doesn't know red wine, he still knows some information about Lafite.

For example, the simplest piece of information. Lafite was actually fired!

That's right~ Just like the later Ace of Spades, Lafite was actually deliberately speculated by speculators.

And the people who speculated Lafite are most likely some wine merchants in Hong Kong City!

So think about it carefully~ In Hong Kong movies, there will always be scenes where rich people like to drink 82-year-old Lafite, and then get in touch with those wine merchants who fry Lafite. As long as a smarter person can guess the relationship here come out.

The later Ace of Spades was actually the same, and unlike Chen Li who never drank the real 82 Lafite, Chen Li really drank the real Ace of Spades champagne.

But to be honest~ Chen Li doesn't like the taste of the Ace of Spades, and even thinks that it is not as good as some hundred and ten yuan champagne.

But what to say~ Maybe Chen Li really doesn't understand, or maybe the marketing of Ace of Spades is really good, in short, Ace of Spades is hot.

Of course, in 2001, there was no Ace of Spades, so what Chen Li was holding in his hand was a real 82-year-old Lafite.

Hmm~ This bottle of wine was bought by Howard Wise, so it's impossible for it to be fake.

And to be honest, at this meeting in 2001, although the price of Lafite in 82 was already expensive, compared with later ones, it was really not a rare thing.

It’s funny to say that~ In fact, in 2001, there were not many 82-year-old Lafites in the world, but 20 years later, in the Chinese market, there are still a large number of 82-year-old Lafites for sale.

It's tricky here~ one can imagine!

In fact, Chen Li also has a box of 12 bottles of 82 Lafite at home, which was a 20th birthday present given to Chen Li by sister Xu.

And these 12 bottles of 82 Lafite were bought by Ms. Xu at a cost of 8000 yuan, an average of less than 3200 yuan per bottle.

As for why Elder Sister Xu gave Chen Li this box of wine~ It was mainly because Chen Li mentioned it when chatting with Xu Xing occasionally.

But what to say~ This wine is still very good for collecting or entertaining certain guests!

It is said that drinking red wine requires quality!Even the way you drink red wine requires a certain elegance.

This point is different for Chinese people, no matter beer or white wine~ you have to pay attention to a drink until the glass is dry!
Cough~ Well, Chen Li really thinks that drinking red wine is a bit of a hypocrite!

To put it bluntly, the so-called red wine requires elegance~ the so-called red wine etiquette and so on are all hypocritical things made by a group of hypocritical people.

All hypocrisy~ The ultimate goal is to raise the "value" of red wine, and finally gain greater benefits.

In fact, if you really want to drink red wine, Chen Li actually prefers to drink ordinary dry red and Sprite!
Uh~ Although this drinking method is very, very earthy, but to be honest~ as long as the proportion of Sprite is right, and then drink it with a big mouthful~ the taste is actually quite beautiful.

But~ Although Chen Li doesn't like red wine very much, he can't help but drink it.

Especially on this occasion. He must hold such a glass in his hand, and there must be such a little red wine in the glass.

Every time Howard Wise introduced someone to Chen Li, Chen Li would touch the person with his glass, and then take a sip of red wine.

And then. Continue to repeat this step!
After a circle~ the names that Chen Li can remember in his mind are actually not many people in total, and the red wine in his glass doesn't seem to decrease much.

There is no way~ Chen Li knows too little about the top celebrities in the United States. Basically, all the rich Americans he knows are the top richest people in the world.

And it is basically impossible for a rich man of that level to come to an occasion like tonight.

Not to mention rich people of that level, even Chen Li, the star of the entertainment industry who likes to go to rich people's receptions the most, doesn't know any of them he saw tonight.

Before, Howard introduced a Hollywood male star to Chen Li. In fact, Chen Li still looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember the name.

Even though Howard Wise introduced Chen Li, but in the next second, when Howard Wise introduced a certain beauty to Chen Li, Chen Li forgot the name of that Hollywood male star again.

It's not that Chen Li is patriarchal!The main reason is that the Hollywood star's reputation is not very big, at least for Chen Li, a Chinese person, he is not famous enough.

Moreover, Howard introduced many people to Chen Li at one time, so the number of people Chen Li can remember after a round is actually very limited.

But~ the people at the scene were not unfamiliar with Chen Li, such as a beautiful woman with long legs who was 1 meters tall.

Well~ how should I say it!In fact, Chen Li is not that familiar with this beauty, but it happened that some time ago, Chen Li just watched a movie in which this beauty acted.

No~ To be precise, Chen Li has seen this movie in his previous life, and more than once.

It just so happened that this movie had just been released in Europe some time ago, and it happened that Chen Li saw this movie on a certain movie-watching software, so Chen Li rewatched it.

In fact, Chen Li has watched this movie many times in his previous life, conservatively estimated that it should be no less than five times!

Because the name of this movie is "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily"!
The name of the long-legged beauty Chen Li met at the reception was Monica~Monica Bellucci.

In fact, speaking of this Monica's career as an actor, the only thing worth talking about is "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", eh~ at least for Chen Li, this is the only movie he can remember.

But it was also this movie~ that made Chen Li watch it no less than five times in his previous life~ I have to say that it is actually quite rare.

You know~ The foreign movies that Chen Li can watch repeatedly are basically classic movies of that kind.

Such as "The Godfather" and "Avatar" and the like!
And the only reason why Chen Li could watch "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" five times was actually because of Monica Bellucci.

Of course, to say that Monica Bellucci is Chen Li's goddess would be an exaggeration.

In fact, if Chen Li hadn't just watched "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" some time ago, I'm afraid Chen Li wouldn't be able to remember this one for a while.

There's no way~ Compared with those famous Hollywood female stars, this person's reputation is really far behind.

Not to mention that in 2001, Monica's fame was far less than in her previous life.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Monica Bellucci to appear at tonight's reception.

In fact, tonight's reception seems to be a gathering of a bunch of rich and famous people, but in fact, if you really count it, the grade of this reception is actually just that.

After all, so many companies around the world have chosen to list in the United States, and such gatherings have almost become a daily routine for some people.

Besides~ Don't look at Red Horse Technology's reputation in the domestic Internet industry circle, but it's really the same thing if it really wants to come to the United States.

So ~ the people who come to this reception, in fact, regardless of their wealth or status, that's the way it is!

In the same way, the so-called stars who come here cannot compare with those top stars in terms of level.

Of course~ this is a comparison in the circle of the rich and famous, if it is compared with ordinary people, it is another matter.

In fact~ if it wasn't for the "Beautiful Legend of Sicily" starring Monica Bellucci, which became popular some time ago, otherwise she probably wouldn't be eligible to come to this reception.

After all, although the people present are not the top richest people in America, they definitely have a lot of energy.

If you can make some connections at such a reception, it will be of great help to Monica's future acting career.

It is worth mentioning that not only Monica Bellucci came to the reception, her husband actually came too!
Her husband, Chen Li, also looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember his name, and Howard Wise didn't introduce him to Chen Li, because he was chatting happily with a rich female at the scene.

Uh~ Well, it is difficult to understand certain ways of thinking of foreigners.

If Chen Li brought Liu Qingqing to attend such an occasion, then Chen Li would definitely not let Liu Qingqing go out to socialize alone, let alone entertain the opposite sex.

But it was obvious that Monica and his wife didn't think so. Not only did they socialize separately, but even when Monica was drinking with Chen Li, she almost stuck to Chen Li.

As far as this behavior is concerned, Chen Li can guarantee that it is difficult for eleven out of ten Chinese husbands to accept it.

But Monica's husband acted as if he hadn't seen it, and even came over to introduce himself to Chen Li after it was over, and drank a glass of wine with Chen Li!

Tsk tsk~ Well, Chen Li can only say
Or you foreigners have fun!
