After the ups and downs of 2001, the charity banquet in 2002 was a little bigger than ever.

Although the recovery of the Internet economy has experienced some twists and turns, after all, the general trend has been achieved, and there is no more suspense.

The growth of the Asia-Pacific region into a new global investment hotspot was also reflected in the charity dinner.

This can be seen from Tianqi Investment's invitation to become one of the three major sponsors of the banquet.

When Wu Tao and his team arrived, the scene could be said to be more shining and lively than the Hollywood red carpet catwalk.

Luxury cars are everywhere, and beautiful women are like clouds.

Correspondingly, there are even more security personnel than guests at the banquet.

The door of the car opened under the guard of Song Zhuang and his party. Wu Tao was the first to get out of the car and was shrouded in a burst of long guns and short cannons.

It really smells like walking on the red carpet.

Wu Tao tried his best to keep his eyes wide open, so as not to be photographed at the moment he closed his eyes and become a black material for a ridiculous gimmick by an unscrupulous media.

Fortunately, only a few seconds later, he turned around and stretched out his arms, and a full-fledged gentleman took Molly, Panis, and Ivanka out of the car.

These three great Yanmars have long been accustomed to such big scenes with long guns and short guns, especially Ivanka, who has a tall figure and a pretty face, and he has experienced it on the countless catwalks in the spotlight.

So these three foreign girls stood behind them, and those long guns and short guns immediately found a new focus.

At this time, Wu Tao had the opportunity to stretch out his right hand towards Liu Ruoxi, who was still cramped in the car, and smiled encouragingly.

Since being selected by the boss as the female partner of this charity dinner, Liu Ruoxi has experienced more than two hours of fear and sorrow and joy.

It wasn't until she was dressed up in a dress worth millions of yuan from head to toe that she regained some confidence.

But on the way just now, listening to the scandalous anecdotes of three foreign girls ridiculing, and seeing them look forward to her boss, she slid again in her heart.

After all, Zhu Yu is ahead, so you must not become Mudu and then embarrass the boss.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Ruoxi's chest gradually calmed down, and then she put her delicate wrist on Wu Tao's right hand, Ruo Baiyu got out of the car and got out of the car.

An elegant cheongsam full of Chinese style, with carefully crafted precious jade bracelet gestures, and LV handmade leather bags embroidered with Chinese style, Liu Ruoxi's appearance attracted all the focus and attention.

The guns and guns that were originally focused on the three glamorous foreign girls were immediately transferred to her.

At first, Liu Ruoxi was still a little flustered, until Wu Tao's "You are the most beautiful" encouragement came in her ears, and then she smiled and became relieved in the face of many shots.

In fact, Wu Tao is not at all worried about Liu Ruoxi's image.

This million-dollar costume was originally tailor-made for An Rong. It wasn't until An Rong couldn't get out of it because of IBM's affairs that he had to find someone else to replace him temporarily.

As for the local circle in California, I once appeared as Molly's boyfriend, and now I bring such a fresh and beautiful Chinese female companion, it is not a big deal at all.

What is important is that at this strategically significant charity dinner, Molly needs to appear in the foreground as an independent person, and he also needs to bring Chinese style and Chinese elements to this traditional Western charity dinner.

The cold wind in California is still bitter.

Feeling the rapid loss of heat from the delicate body beside him, Wu Tao resolutely embraced Liu Ruoxi's slender waist and walked into the venue.

At this moment, as one of the organizers of the dinner, Wu Yingying led people to greet her, followed by an old man in Chinese clothes and an unscrupulous old man.

This shameless old man is not someone else, but Uncle Jason.

Now he has gray hair, stupefied to let him take care of fashion colors. As soon as he appeared, he winked at the foreign girls around him, and he really couldn't see his duty as a powerful figure in the Morgan Consortium.

As for this old man in Chinese clothes, Wu Tao didn't know him.

But it does not prevent others from knowing him.

Without waiting for Wu Yingying's introduction, the old man in Huafu took the initiative to stretch out his hand, "I have heard of the name of President Wu for a long time, and I was fortunate to see it today. My next Tang Wannian, who is in charge of the American Chinese Chamber of Commerce, can say a few words."

Wu Tao enthusiastically shook the other's skinny palm and said, "Chairman Tang, I've long wanted to see you. Today, we must drink two more glasses."

Tang Wannian turned to his side, "Mr. Wu, please!"

"Chairman Tang, please!"

The originally Western-style social occasions were so shocked that Tang Wannian had some combination of Chinese and Western.

It seemed that his status and status lay there, and everyone around him, including Jason, had no reaction.

Walking into the hotel lobby, everyone followed the VIP passage and went straight to the elevator. There was a lot of courtesy in the middle. Fortunately, after several humility, they finally reached the top floor of the hotel, the main venue of this charity dinner.

Along the way, Liu Ruoxi was always a little cramped and hard to let go, so much so that even Wu Tao didn't hold her wrist, she just clenched Xiuquan, and looked like she was waiting.

If she knew, she thought she was Wu Tao's female companion; if she didn't know, she thought she was an attendant secretary or something.

When the elevator door opened, everyone else walked out first. Only when Wu Tao and Liu Ruoxi next to him were left, Wu Tao arched his elbows into each other's arms and said, "Remember, you are now my female companion. Not a secretary."

Liu Ruoxi blushed, and she took his arm slightly stiffly.

"You are the best."

After saying this, Wu Tao stepped out of the elevator, and immediately attracted all eyes from all directions in the venue.

Wu Tao glanced over, only to realize that he knew a lot of familiar faces.

Needless to say, Reese from Barron's Weekly I met earlier.

Many predators who met on the Tsinghua Economic Management Advisory Committee were among them, including Henry Paulson, the chairman of the committee, Christoph, the president of Motorola, and so on.

A little further away are the two financial predators I met earlier, Soros and Buffett, and their spontaneous circle.

On this trip to the United States, Intel President Craig and AMD President Sanders, who had just dealt with each other, took the initiative to greet them and stretched out their hands with enthusiasm.

After saying hello to ~lightnovelpub.net~, Wu Tao met with the governor of California and several well-dressed congressmen under the recommendation of Tang Wannian and Wu Yingying.

This California governor, Gray Davis, looks particularly comical, and Wu Tao has some impressions.

This impression is not because of how famous this governor is, but because his next governor is particularly famous, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

According to the information in memory, Schwarzenegger was appointed governor not in accordance with the normal "arrival" election process, but because of the lack of ability of the governor in front of him, which led to the economic downturn and fiscal deficit in California and was dismissed as a result. .

In the end, after the governor was deposed, he opened the way to Hollywood.

In this respect, it is similar to Schwarzenegger's return to politics from Hollywood.

It seems to be about Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will arrive.

Wu Tao was thinking about it here, and a strong and hearty voice came from afar, "Hua Xia Wu, it's nice to meet you!"
