Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 1068 The Uninteresting Class Reunion
Niu Xiaoqiang asked: "When will the party be held?"

Karina looked at her watch: "It will be held at ten o'clock tonight."

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't expect such a coincidence, he looked at his attire unprepared: "It doesn't look right for me to dress like this, why don't I go home and change my clothes first."

Kailinna smiled and shook her head: "This is already very good, there is no need to dress up."

Niu Xiaoqiang had no choice but to give up, because he had been drinking before, so he could only leave his car in front of Watson's house first.The two drove Karina's Porsche 911 to the Windsor bar.

Windsor Bar is located in the busiest area in the center of Boston. It is one of the most upscale bars in Boston. The environment inside is very good.

After getting off the car, Kailinna went to the bathroom to change into her evening dress, and then took Niu Xiaoqiang to the super large box that had been reserved in advance.

There were quite a few people sitting in the box, all of them were Kailina's college alumni.Seeing Kailinna bring an oriental person in, everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then someone said: "Kailinna, this is...?"

Kailinna seemed very generous: "He is my good friend Niu Xiaoqiang, from China."

As soon as I said this, there was a disdainful voice from the crowd: "Oh, so I am a Chinese. I heard that China is a very poor and backward country. Many people can't even eat enough. Mr. Niu, I don't know this. Is it true?"

This is the truth, Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly: "It is indeed true, but China is carrying out reform and opening up. With the deepening of reform and opening up, I believe that the life of the Chinese people will be better and better in the future."

The young man who spoke just now said, "I hope so, Kailina. I haven't seen you for a few years. You are really getting more and more beautiful. If you don't mind, can you tell me how you take care of yourself?"

This man is a man, and he obviously wants to flatter Kailinna.It's a pity that Karina doesn't like dealing with this kind of people very much.She wrote lightly: "I don't have much maintenance."

After Kailinna finished speaking, she took Niu Xiaoqiang to the corner of the box and sat down. The people around began to whisper, and they looked this way while talking, with funny expressions on their faces.

You don't need to ask to know that they are laughing at Kai Linna for finding a Chinese male partner, as if in their eyes, it is embarrassing to do so.

Kailinna looked at Niu Xiaoqiang with apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, Xiaoqiang, I didn't expect their prejudice against the Chinese to be so deep, which made you embarrassed. I will definitely make it up to you when I go back later."

Niu Xiaoqiang doesn't mind this. The image of a country can't be changed in a short while. It takes a certain amount of time. He doesn't have the time to argue with these people, because it's too boring.

"Look at what you said, am I the kind of narrow-minded person? It's their business what they want to say. I just do what I should do. Other things are beyond my control."

Kailina showed a slight smile. She was just about to speak when a woman's voice came over: "Kailina, we have graduated for three years, why are you still wearing the evening gown that you attended the prom? Are you Are you doing so badly that you can't even afford a new evening dress?"

When this person spoke, there was a sense of superiority, as if she had a good life.

In the past, Kailinna would definitely fight tit for tat, even at the expense of a big fight with the other party, and she would not suffer such a disadvantage anyway.

But now she will not be so reckless, because she has matured a long time ago.

She smiled slightly: "It's true that I haven't had a good life these past few years, but it's not a problem to buy a new evening dress. As for why I didn't buy it, it's because there is no need for it. Anyway, the evening dress on my body A dress is only worn once, and it would be a waste to leave it in the closet."

"Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that you have become so rational, not bad."

Another girl interjected: "Karina, what you are holding seems to be an Hermès handbag, right? If I read correctly, this handbag should be a limited edition, and the price is as high as [-] US dollars. Since you live well It's not very good, so don't buy a high-quality imitation to save face, we are all old classmates, even if you buy a cheap handbag, no one will say anything, right everyone?"

The other people in the box nodded in agreement when they heard the words. Niu Xiaoqiang knew at a glance that most of these people didn't think much of Kailinna, especially the women, who were clearly taunting her. Because Kailinna had a bad temper before and offended too many people.

Kailinna also understood this, she was too lazy to argue with these female students, so she smiled and said nothing.

In fact, this Hermès handbag owned by Karina is absolutely genuine, and the price is indeed as high as [-] US dollars.Even if others said that what she bought was a high-quality imitation, she didn't want to bother to explain it, because people at her level no longer need to rely on luxury goods to raise their own value.

The reason why she bought this expensive handbag is because she needs to support the scene when she goes out to discuss business.

No matter which country you are in, you should not be too shabby when doing business with people. The more economically powerful you are, the more they will respect you.Loving the poor and loving the rich is not the exclusive property of the Chinese, and people from other countries are the same.

If you are wearing a tank top and shorts and riding a bicycle to negotiate a business worth tens of millions of dollars, which eye do you let others look at you?Others will definitely doubt your financial strength, and then consider whether to cooperate with you.

If you drive a luxury car and wear high-end clothes to talk to others, they will naturally not have doubts about your strength.

Although this approach seems vulgar, this society has always been like this. No matter how noble you are, as long as you are a member of society, you must follow the established rules.

Niu Xiaoqiang saw all this in his eyes, and he both appreciated and felt unworthy of Kailinna's behavior of not explaining.

Appreciation is because Kailinna has shown the quality that a mature professional manager should have, and this quality is an open mind.

It's not worth it because the atmosphere of this class reunion is not very good, Niu Xiaoqiang thinks that Kailinna should not come to attend at all.Anyway, she doesn't have much contact with these classmates, so why come here to suffer this useless anger?It's better to just turn your face and leave.

Kailinna has lived with Niu Xiaoqiang for so long, and she already knows Niu Xiaoqiang very well. She quickly saw what Niu Xiaoqiang was thinking, and explained in a low voice: "I have other purposes for attending the class reunion today. I just came here to chat with these people."

Niu Xiaoqiang asked curiously, "What's your purpose?"
