Chapter 273

Chen Weidong turned his gaze to Li Yun and the others.

"No, there will be someone to meet us when we get there." Xiang Shaohua unscrewed the soda and took a sip, feeling the pores on his body shrink back from the cold.

This time when the two of them came, they had already made preparations in advance. There were people from them all year round in the United States, so it was not difficult to find a translation guide.

"Are you really not going to take me? My English is better than any of you." Li Xi'er whispered, still not giving up.

As a top student at Harvard University, her oral English is of course no problem.

No matter from any point of view, she was the most suitable candidate, but Chen Weidong refused to let her go.

What about your personal secretary?

"You'd better stay in the company, we're not joking this time, and, if I'm not here, you can handle many things instead of me."

Chen Weidong leaned on the corner of the table and shook his head. Without Li Xier, of course he had deep considerations.

They are all men, and it is inconvenient to bring a woman, and it is not a wise choice for all the company's senior management to go to the United States.

Those consortiums of capital are not easy-going lamps.

If something happened, it would be a big problem.

Seeing that Chen Weidong was so determined, Li Xi'er could only give up resentfully, but still told him to be careful.

Afterwards, several people discussed some precautions after arriving in the United States, and then went back to the temporary residence to rest. Chen Jie also made an excuse to slip away, saying that he was going to meet an old friend.

Only Chen Weidong and Li Xi'er were left, and they looked at each other in the office.

"You don't want to take me with you anyway, don't you have some bad intentions?" Li Xi'er locked a stack of organized documents on the bookcase behind Chen Weidong, and pressed her slender little hand on his shoulder.

Chen Weidong frowned: "Men do things, women don't ask too much, okay?"

"Cut, just don't bring me a woman back, I don't care about the rest." Li Xi'er stuck out her tongue, breathed a sigh of relief, bent over and hugged Chen Weidong, and pressed it against his neck again, opening her mouth to make a gesture. As if about to bite.

Feeling the eloquent teeth on his neck, Chen Weidong shuddered: "What are you thinking? Foreigners have a strange smell, so they have to spray perfume to cover it up. Most people can't stand it. Besides, don't underestimate my aesthetics, okay? I still I like your little freshness."

"Hmph, after all, you have a criminal record, it's better to be like this, otherwise I want you to look good."

Li Xi'er felt sweet after hearing this, and couldn't help but warn her again, and the two of them became reluctant to part with each other.

The next day.

Chen Weidong bid farewell to Li Xier, and boarded a United Airlines Boeing 747 with Chen Jie, Li Yun and others.

Sitting in the comfortable first-class cabin, the group was both a little nervous and a little excited.

The United States is not comparable to a small country like an island country. In this era, various imported Hollywood films are exporting culture subtly and all the time.

This also makes many people wonder what the United States is like, and whether it is really so free, open, and developed.

Or, in dire straits?
This time they came out very low-key, only a very few people knew about their itinerary.

The plane did not turn around, and after seventeen hours of continuous flight, it finally arrived in Elizabeth, New Jersey.

Newark Liberty International Airport.

It is 26 kilometers away from Manhattan, New York.

Among the crowd at the airport exit, a chubby middle-aged man held a photo in his hand, carefully checked it several times, and then trotted over.

"Mr. Chen, welcome to America!"

When he saw Chen Weidong and the others, he immediately greeted them warmly.

"Hello... hello" Chen Jie subconsciously shook hands with him when he saw that he looked familiar.

Xiang Shaohua gave them a wink, indicating that they were indeed one of his own, and then turned to the middle-aged man and said, "Old Qiao, quickly take us to find a place to rest, everyone is exhausted after flying all day."

He kept scanning from the corner of his eye, and found that he was surrounded by foreigners of various skin colors. He felt very uncomfortable, and his nerves tensed up, for fear of being noticed.

"Let's go, I've already driven the car over."

Hearing this, the chubby middle-aged man hurriedly led everyone to a Ford Conqueror. This is a very large commercial vehicle with a large interior space, enough to seat six or seven people, and it is not crowded at all.

It can be seen that the middle-aged man has indeed undergone some preparations.

He drove the crowd to Manhattan, New York.

Along the way, through chatting, Chen Weidong and the others found out that this middle-aged man was named Qiao Zhiyong, and he had immigrated to the United States eight years ago.

When he was in China before, he was also the director of the development department of a certain place, and he ran here for some reason.

And his wife and children are still staying in China for the time being.

From his series of words, Chen Weidong felt that he really wanted to bring his wife and children here.

But when it came to the crucial point, Qiao Zhiyong glanced at Li Yun and the others intentionally or unintentionally, and quietly changed the subject.

Chen Weidong nodded slightly, but didn't ask further questions tactfully.

After about an hour's drive, the car finally entered Manhattan.

This is the most prosperous place in New York, just like Hong Kong Island.

Manhattan is also the area with the highest concentration of skyscrapers in the United States, and is described as the economic and financial center of the United States.

In fact, Manhattan is the smallest district in New York. It consists of an island and is surrounded by the East River, Hudson River and Harlem River. It is very densely populated.

The layout of the entire street is like a chessboard, every inch of land is a reinforced concrete forest, and the buildings are densely packed one after another, so that even the wind cannot blow in.

New York's iconic Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Chrysler Building, Metropolitan Life Insurance Building and other buildings are all concentrated here.

Most of these tall buildings are the headquarters of the world's top 500 companies.

Most of America's commerce, trade, finance, and insurance companies are located in Manhattan, establishing its image as an international city.

Wall Street, with an area of ​​less than 1 square kilometer, is home to dozens of world-renowned large banks, insurance companies, exchanges, and the headquarters of hundreds of large companies.

Therefore, Manhattan is also known as "the best place in the world".

The people here, all the time, are affecting the trend of the world's economy.

Manhattan as a whole is a long and narrow strip, divided into three parts - Uptown, Midtown, and Lowertown.

Old Joe drove the car into the upper city and parked it in the yard of a single-family villa.

This is the most family-friendly neighborhood in Manhattan and one of the most famous affluent areas in New York.

Chen Weidong and Chen Jie were fine, they had seen the world after all, Li Yun, Xiang Shaohua, and Zhang Zhiyuan were not so calm.

Looking at the neatly repaired lawns and flower beds around them, the private coffee shop full of capitalist sentiment, and looking around at the luxurious villa covering an area of ​​more than 200 square meters, their eyes widened.

"Good fellow! How much does it cost?"

 The update will be resumed slowly recently, we have been silent here, and we can't get out at all
