Chapter 257 Buffet

  Wang Le looked enviously at the big tabby cat lying on the ground, and scratched it with his hands from time to time, Xiao Bai was annoyed, so he yelled at him, scaring Wang Le and lightning back. An Feng stared at it with his eyes, Xiaobai changed his mouth to yawn into a yawn, and looked at him innocently.

   "Learn to be pitiful!" An Feng criticized it.

  Wang Le sat on the grass, looked at the silent Xiaobai, and said with a smile: "You're really clever, and you can compete with Erha who makes mistakes and pretends he didn't do it."

"Don't! I'm afraid that it will learn Erha's character!" An Feng hopes that Xiaobai will be able to do many things when he grows up. If not, he can be as good as a Labrador. Speaking of housekeeping, a piece of ham can easily make it rebellious, I dare not think about it...

  An Feng said to Joanna: "Next time we have to let it have less contact with Lin Hai's Erha, bad habits can't be learned!"

  Joanna chuckled softly.

  Wang Le added fuel to the fire: "It's too late! Look at its appearance, I'm afraid it has learned some essence!"

   "Stop!" An Feng pushed him away and stared at Xiaobai, which was normal.

  Joanna went back to the house, and came from the house with a cordless phone: "My dear, I have your call!"

   "Whose?" An Feng wiped his hands with a paper towel.

   "Roger." Joanna put the phone to his ear.

  An Feng answered the phone: "Hi, buddy?"

   Roger said, "Hey Bruce, how are you doing?"

   "It's okay, are you free for a drink?" An Feng said.

   "I'm thinking about that too, but I've been too busy recently to relax. I want to invite you to a charity buffet in Los Angeles this time."

   "You held a buffet party? It seems that there are enough entertainments." An Feng said with a smile, "No problem, but can I bring a few more friends?"

   "Very welcome, I am worried that there are not enough people." Roger said.

   "Okay, I will go to the meeting on time." An Feng said, confirm the location and time with him, and hang up the phone.

   "Do you have time to send money?" An Feng asked Wang Le, who was stubborn and wanted to tease Xiaobai.

   "Send money?" Wang Le turned to look at him, "Can we use Chinese?"

   "It's a charity buffet, a typical western social occasion. Don't tell me you have been in the United States for so long and have never participated in these activities." An Feng said.

   "It's fine if you just say that the donation is not enough, what's the detour!" Wang Le scorned, "Who is this time?"

   "Old friend Roger. He knows a lot of people and might be able to find something that interests you."

   "This guy is very interesting, I will go." Wang Le said.

  …

  An Feng attended the luncheon hosted by Roger at the hotel in the evening.

Although it is informal, everyone is dressed in a very formal style. The style is different from other dinner parties. The ladies changed the more grand evening dresses into small dresses. The skirts reach knees, and they can be more freely matched in color Some jewellery, just as glamorous.

  An Feng brought his wife in, and Roger, the host, confessed to his friend, welcomed him warmly, and hugged him.

   "Long time no see! Feel like you're busy recently?" An Feng said to him, and kissed the beautifully dressed Miranda.

  Roger sighed: "You have to know that my free life has come to an end, and I will feel sad for me when I walk on a busy road."

   After speaking, Roger saluted with Wang Le and his wife, and walked into the hall together.

   "What's going on?" An Feng asked.

   "I got a promotion," Roger said.

   "Then you are still sighing? Promotion and salary increase, bright future, isn't this a good thing to celebrate?" An Feng asked strangely.

Roger shook his head and said: "Since the Sinclair family bought the shares of American Express, the consortium has completely controlled the company, and internal adjustments have been made one after another. I was also pushed to the front desk and became a regional director. This means that there are more things on me. , can no longer live freely as before."

   But Miranda caught his lie: "He just works a little more — if you think the occasional meeting counts as much."

  An Feng smiled: "You cheated me of my sympathy."

  Roger frowned: "Things are not that simple. Although I can be as leisurely as before, the quality of the regional management is linked to my income!"

   "Don't you still have a trust fund?" An Feng said, the trust fund is the first choice property left by the rich to their children, and there will be special personnel to help them invest and make money.

   "It has been changed to family shares." Roger continued to sigh.

   "Why do I feel that everything is a good thing? Why do you say it in your tone, and it becomes a bad thing?" An Feng was puzzled. I'm afraid others would like this?

  Roger also wondered: "I also feel very strange. Maybe there are too many family arrangements recently and the pressure is high. I really want to vent."

An Feng made a conclusion for him: "I guess you are suffering from office syndrome, just like I used to be, hurry up and smash the computer tomorrow, work to hell! Let Miranda accompany you to walk around, go to the beach Sun, let's have a few drinks together and have some romance."

   Miranda said: "You can accompany me to France next week! Forget about the work here, go to a few fashion shows, go shopping..."

  Roger looked at An Feng bitterly, with an expression of "you might as well not say it".

   An Feng shrugged helplessly.

When Miranda mentioned this, Joanna's interest also came: "I just had this idea. I went to Paris in March to watch a few fashion shows, customize clothes, and relax in a different environment. I miss the desserts there, colorful macarons and hot chocolate."

   "I also like French boutique desserts..." Lisa joined in, and as a result, three women lived on the same street.

  The three men left quietly, giving time and space to them.

  Wang Le took a glass of wine and raised it to greet them: "Well, the result of their discussion this time will determine our whereabouts next week."

   "I'm casual, European leisure is also good." An Feng said.

  Roger doesn't care: "It's okay, I also want to give her a vacation, go shopping in Paris, go to Switzerland to watch the Basel Watch Fair, and choose gifts for her."

   "Improved!" An Feng boasted.

  Roger smiled: "People will always change, and the environment is also changing me. Sorry, I'm afraid I need to receive other people, and we will talk later."

   "You are busy." An Feng said to him.

   Roger nodded and left.

Not long after the guests arrived, Roger came to the stage and gave a short speech, talking about the deeds of the Blueline Family Foundation and what contributions it had made... After the speech, the rich were free to play and donate some charitable funds by filling in checks. It can not only keep your name, but also avoid taxes.

   During the buffet, An Feng met Anthony who was also present.

They got together and talked about some charitable things. Furthermore, the recently established Beida Company, the money from the Blueline family has arrived, and according to the original agreement, Anthony needs to invest 320 million U.S. dollars to purchase 20% of the company's shares. A very risky investment.

  Anthony asked his plan: "Have you thought about how to use this money?"

"It is mainly used in advertising." An Feng said, "Beverages are mainly high-quality goods in the early stage, and the price is slightly higher, so the shipment volume will not be too much, so all the spare funds are used in publicity, which can quickly accumulate popularity. After the business year, it is enough for everyone to be inseparable from them."

  Anthony said: "It is the most appropriate to invite sports stars or sponsor sports events. The most significant part of bio-drinks is anti-fatigue..."

"No, anti-fatigue is only the fastest effective among them, and its ability to slow down the aging process is the most powerful - so I call it a biological drink, not a carbonated drink or a functional drink." An Feng needs to give his cooperation The partner infuses these awarenesses.

Anthony understood: "Then we have to start from two aspects, from anti-fatigue and anti-aging, with sports activities and some models who are good at maintenance. In this regard, Roger has a lot to do, and there are many goals to choose from. , as long as you dare to spend money."

   "Don't worry about this, spend half of the money on advertising." An Feng said.

   "Half? Too high?" Anthony said.

An Feng said to himself: "Of course, please don't think that these publicity costs are high. If you know that it has the ability to make everyone inseparable, no matter how high it is, it is worth it. I even plan to sponsor some teams, or even buy them. Come down to promote these products."

  After listening to it, Anthony said in admiration: "It seems that your self-confidence is really strong!"
