The Upper East Side of New York stretches from Central Park in the west, East River in the east, 59th Street on Fifth Avenue in the south, and 96th Street in northeast Manhattan in the north. It was once known as the "Silk Reserve Capital" and is now the most affluent community in New York City. one. According to the 2000 census, 21 percent of the Upper East Side's population was foreign-born. Among them, Europe accounted for 45.6%, Asia accounted for 29.5%, Latin America accounted for 16.2%, and others accounted for 8.7%. Given its very high population density and per capita income ($85,081 in 2000). The neighborhood's greatest concentration of personal wealth is in Manhattan. As of 2011, the median household income on the Upper East Side was $131,492. The Upper East Side maintained the highest price per square foot in the United States. The area is home to some of the most famous museums in the world, and the series of museums on Fifth Avenue along Central Park is known as "Museum Drive." They are located between 82nd and 105th Streets. Such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of the City of New York, the Jewish Museum of New York, the Morgan Library and Museum, and the National Academy of Design and so on. The Upper East Side is also an important location for political fundraising in the United States. The four zip codes with the top five political donations in the United States are all in Manhattan, and the zip code with the highest donation amount is the same area where Lin Zidan is located. It has a pleasant environment, good schools, and gathers 1% of the people in New York City. Therefore, the Upper East Side is also the most prime location in the United States. It contains the highest density of population in the country and is also the largest concentration of wealth. Lin Zidan's duplex apartment is only a 10-minute walk from Central Park and a 12-minute walk from the Metropolitan Museum. There are many galleries around, and the artistic atmosphere is also very strong. Lin Zidan didn't know until he lived in the Upper East Side that even if you live here, it's still very difficult to enter the life circle of people in the Upper East Side. It has the largest and richest Jewish population, but the Upper East Side has traditionally been made up of white American Protestant family groups. Usually of British descent, wealthy and well-connected. They monopolized New York's elite society through intermarriage and nepotism. Therefore, it is very difficult for the upstarts or the rich and new rich who have just emerged from the financial market or other industries to enter their social circle. And because of this, those aristocratic children who were born in the Upper East Side but continue to decline will take advantage of the curiosity of people from all walks of life to sell tickets to enter the social circle of the Upper East Side, in order to maintain the dignity of the aristocrats that they are about to decline but are striving to maintain . Lin Zidan followed Louis before, although he was also in the wealthy circle, but it was different from the wealthy circle in the Upper East Side. Therefore, even if he came from a family like Louis, he was not even a wealthy family in the Upper East Side, so he couldn't. Casually enter and leave the various banquets held by the high society. After Lin Zidan moved into his duplex apartment, his lifestyle began to become more regular. Apart from meeting between several companies, his fitness club and golf club were all on the weekly schedule. For this reason, Lin Zidan specially recruited an experienced personal assistant to handle all kinds of necessary things at company events that Lin Zidan couldn't take part in. His office has also moved from the original Flushing real estate company to his luxurious and spacious apartment. The large office in the apartment is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and ready for videoconferences with company executives. -----------------When Xiao Cheng came to Lin Zidan's apartment for the first time, his eyes were straight. Xiao Cheng called the local tyrant and asked how much Lin Zidan spent. With the money to buy such a nice apartment, when Lin Zidan told him that it was only four million, he immediately became petrified. "I'm going, you are really stepping into the rhythm of the upper east side of the upper class! Look at this decoration, I'm going, the furniture in your room is worth my villa!" "The furniture in here It's all matching, including the books in this cabinet!" Lin Zidan pointed at the books on the entire wall of the study. "Is this book real? Isn't it just a cover? I..." Xiao Cheng reached out and took one down, and found that it was real, and the bookcase was full of various encyclopedias in English. , the history of various countries, and the original versions of various literary masterpieces. "I just want the things in your room to be worth more than my house!" Xiao Cheng said enviously. "Don't worry, I'll find it for you when you want to buy it here, don't forget what we do." Lin Zidan said with a smile. "Forget it, if my girlfriend knew that the bare land tax on this house was higher than her annual income, she wouldn't let me buy it if she was killed, haha~" Xiao Cheng smiled bitterly. Just after Lin Zidan had just moved in and came back from work, the guard suddenly stopped him and respectfully handed him a package of beautifully bound invitations. "For me?" Lin Zidan asked inexplicably. "Yes, Mr. Lin, 8dmr, lin," the doorman said in English with a Spanish accent. "Okay, thank you~" Lin Zidan took the invitation card in his hand and looked up and down. In order not to show his surprise and curiosity in front of the guard, Lin Zidan put the invitation card in the briefcase he was carrying, and walked up leisurely. . Back home, Lin Zidan quickly took out the invitation card. Since he moved here, apart from Xiao Cheng and Louis, there are only a handful of friends who know his address, and this invitation card only says mr.lin, not Putting his full name on it made him very curious. After unfolding the fully sealed envelope, there is a two-fold black and gold card inside. The content page of the card reads that mr.lin is invited to attend a business dinner in the real estate industry at 6:00 pm this Friday at the location. It was actually on the top floor of his apartment 13a. The signature was eric in cursive. Lin Zidan searched all the real estate names he knew in his memory called eric, and the loud rock music that night immediately appeared in him. mind. "This person actually lives on the top floor of this building! The question is, how could this person invite me?" Lin Zidan was puzzled, so he hurriedly called Louis. "What? Eric invited you to a party at his house?" Louis exclaimed immediately after hearing Lin Zidan's words. "Uh... That's right, that's why I asked if I invited you." Seeing him so excited~lightnovelpub.net~ Lin Zidan was even more confused for a while. "I'm not from the real estate industry! But according to your position, you shouldn't be among his invitations! Is it because you happen to live downstairs in his house?" Lewis analyzed. "Would you invite your next-door neighbor to your private party because you live close?" Lin Zidan retorted. "Uh... that's not necessarily, hehe~ because the neighbors around me are also rich people like my father." Louis said with a smile. "Well, if I didn't ask, then do you and I want to participate?" Lin Zidan hesitated. "Go, of course! Although eric really likes to party, I have never heard of business dinners like this that use real estate as a gimmick. After all, he is not involved in his own family business at all. But since he If you are invited, you can go and have a look, anyway, even if you may not be his friend, it is a good opportunity to expand your network." Lewis said shrewdly. "Then do I need to bring a female companion for such a dinner party?" Lin Zidan was still wondering whether to bring Emma with him! "If there is no special indication to bring your companions, you should not bring them. Eric doesn't seem to like the presence of many female companions." Louis suggested quickly. "What do you mean? He won't be..." "That's not true. It may have something to do with his background. He especially dislikes the high-spirited appearance of the ladies in the upper class!" Louis said with a smile. After hanging up Louis's call, Lin Zidan hurriedly searched for Eric's family information on the Internet according to some of the points that Louis had provided him before. Only after this search did he find that Eric was really not on the list of their ancient family heirs!
