Six hundred and thirty-eight chapters fancy
The red wine glasses on the banquet table were shining with crystal luster, and the rich people at the party laughed and talked in a low voice, kind and confident.
In such a fame and fortune social scene, the Sumitomo family, who held the cocktail party, is undoubtedly the protagonist.
Among the six major consortiums in Japan, although Sumitomo is slightly inferior to Mitsubishi and Mitsui Consortiums, he has strong strength in non-ferrous metals, finance and electrical appliance industries.
Among them, Sumitomo Bank, Sumitomo Metals, Sumitomo Trading Company, Sumitomo Chemical, and Panasonic Electric are all world-renowned large companies.
As a family that integrates science, industry and trade, the Sumitomo family has a certain influence not only in Japan, but also in the world's capital system.
With a beautiful geisha on the stage and being invited by the rich, many people have already taken their seats one after another.
In such a grand banquet, the charitable donation project can only be regarded as one of the highlights. The Sumitomo Consortium's comprehensive exhibition will be held next, which will undoubtedly be much more formal.
Some geishas accompanied the rich people who offered to invite them to sit at the banquet table. Although they did not have the natural temperament of a lady from a big family, they were also considered beautiful and generous, without any sense of low status.
Seeing the first phase of charitable donations approaching, Mitsuo Iwada, president of Sumitomo Bank of Nuclear Center, showed a hint of admiration on his face, as if he was very satisfied with this unique plan.
"President, everyone seems to be very interested in donating and bidding very generously. It's amazing to invite an artist for millions of dollars!" A Japanese man in a rigorous suit sighed to Iwada Mitsuo in a low voice.
"There are many younger generations of major families present today, so they are naturally interested in such donation activities. In the past, the comprehensive exhibition of our consortium was too boring. This charitable donation project was better than expected. To be more explicit, people live for face. Burning money is the strength of the rich, and this is what they like." Iwata Mitsuo said to his subordinates in a very low voice.
The man standing next to Iwada Mitsuo is Sumitomo Bank's overseas investment minister Sumitomo Bank.
Although he was defeated in the international gold market two years ago, driven by the hot and hot Japanese economy in the past two years, Sumitomo Bank of Nuclear Corporation not only did not recover, but instead seized the opportunity and achieved comprehensive expansion.
Not only in the Japanese stock market, but also in the real estate market. Sumitomo Bank of Nuclear Corporation is even often involved in the operation of the money market.
Two years later, Sumitomo Metals and Sumitomo Bank of Nuclear Corporation have once again made plans to enter the world capital market.
When I found out that Mitsuo Iwata didn't often look at Chen Hongtao in the distance, Su Jueyanzuo knew that his boss was still very concerned about the continuous heavy hits of Mingzhu Holdings in the international gold market two years ago.
At that time, Sumitomo Bank of Nuclear Corporation was ambitious and arrogant, and had considerable influence in the international gold market, but it became a stepping stone for Mingzhu Holdings to ascend to the throne. This taste was really bad. Even though Mingzhu Holdings has quietly retreated, it still couldn't help but make people like Iwata Mitsuo sigh.
"Looking at Miss Qianka of the Mitsui family, it seems that she attaches great importance to Chen Hongtao. Although it is said that Mingzhu Holdings has withdrawn from the capital market outside, that person came to our Japan. It still makes people mind a little." Su Jueyanzuo said cautiously.
The smile on Iwada Mitsuo's face was a bit complicated: "Even if Mingzhu Holdings no longer operates the capital market, its position in the world capital order cannot be underestimated. Although the scale of capital operation of the Mitsui Consortium is not small, it pays more attention to the real industry. In the past two years, its internationalization strategies have become more and more obvious. What the Mitsui family values is Chen Hongtao's world capital and political network."
"He is really amazing. He is not as fierce and strong as the capital market. He is in this banquet hall where capital wealthy people gather, and he still has a sense of existence that cannot be ignored by everyone." Through the eyes of some people looking at Chen Hongtao, Su Jueyanzuo seemed to feel something.
"The big families in the world capital order all prosper and lose with each other. In fact, the Western capital families present today are basically in the same system as the financial consortium Mingzhu Holdings." Iwada Mitsuo looked around at the banquet hall and the foreigners.
"Is it like the equity of the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Oil Reserves scattered in the hands of these families?" Su Jueyanzuo asked with some uncertainty.
"It's not all that the cooperation level of these large capital families is far deeper than outsiders know. They guide the direction of the world's capital order, change direction and control many European and American countries, and influence the situation in the world. Remember these guys, this is the gap between our Japanese consortium family and the world's nobles." Iwada Mitsuo whispered.
It is not difficult to understand Suzuki Hikasaki's statement. Just like Sumitomo Consortium, it also has the ability to grasp the economic and political development context of Japan. However, compared with the strong European and American countries, Japan's stage in a small place is a little smaller.
At this time, Chen Hongtao had already returned to the dining table in the corner of the banquet hall to sit down, with a faint look of deflated expression, and the only one with Mitsui Chika was the only one who was at the table.
"I'm leaving." As Chika Mitsui looked, Chen Hongtao lit a cigar.
Chika Mitsui smiled gently: "If you are not satisfied with the artist, there are many ladies from big families present. If you are willing to invite me, I can consider having dinner with you..."
"Sit with Miss Qianxiang, I'm almost treated as a mortal enemy by some people. The one who shot this gun is really wronged!" Chen Hongtao said with a wry smile.
Just as Chen Hongtao wanted to get up, the woman who hosted a charitable donation event by the Sumitomo family had already introduced the geisha on stage again: "The tenth artist who appeared below, Miss Nami Fujisawa..."
As a girl wearing a black goose-velvet dress walked out gently, Chen Hongtao couldn't help but look moved, and he suppressed his desire to leave.
Not only Chen Hongtao, but also the Japanese girl in a princess-sleeved mini dress on the stage, attracted the attention of many people.
Unlike the nine geishas before, the girl brought a fresh and natural sweet atmosphere as soon as she walked out, especially her almond eyes were very clear, beautiful and gentle, as if she was dedicated to spirituality.
"I didn't expect there was such a woman!" Looking at the tender and plump body of the girl on the stage, Chika Mitsui sighed in a low voice.
Just as Chen Hongtao said, through the large round neck of the girl's velvet mini skirt, Chika Mitsui can clearly see the girl's delicate and fair skin. Not only does the skin tone consistent, but there is no flaw.
"You don't have to be so surprised. In my opinion, if you walk up, you will be better than her." Chen Hongtao's smile made Chika Mitsui a little shy.
"I heard that the best artists have shiny skin, fair and little hair, plump and charming figure, and a calm and steady personality. However, the female artist's eyes seemed very lively, and she didn't seem to be patient." Mitsui Chika said carefully after observing the girl on the stage.
"It's good to have some spirituality, so as not to be too dead. If you just lie there like a puppet to make a food utensil, it would be meaningless." Chen Hongtao said with a heart-warming smile.
"Do you want to bid for her?" As Chika Mitsui looked at Chen Hongtao, someone from the rich young masters present had already started to bid.
To Mitsui Chika's surprise, Chen Hongtao smiled and shook his head: "It's not that I want to bid for her, but you come. Such a charity activity is a good thing no matter how you say it. Since it's here, why don't Miss Chika do a good deed?"
Mitsui Chika couldn't help but glance at Chen Hongtao's shamelessness and contempt: "I won't help you spend money to satisfy your dirty desires."
"If you bid, I will pay, I will enjoy the Japanese food culture. If you donate money to World Children's Fund, why not do it?" Chen Hongtao was not satisfied with Chika Mitsui's dissatisfaction.
Unlike the relaxed and freehand paintings of the rich people in the banquet hall, Fujisawa Nami on the stage seemed very nervous, especially when she saw the Japanese girl wearing a red elastic waist dress sitting next to Byron, Fujisawa Nami's mood was even more complicated.
There are 12 geishas in the charitable donation event. There is no doubt that those who appear first will have certain advantages and will be easier to get along with the rich.
"I'll give me $300,000 to invite this lady." It was not until a young man from the Baker family called out the price that Nami Fujisawa breathed a sigh of relief.
"I donate $500,000..." A gentle voice sounded in the banquet hall, beyond the expectations of many people.
Many people, including Fujisawa Nami on the stage, looked at the woman's voice and turned their eyes to a corner near the window in the banquet hall.
"Hehe, finally someone can't help it. Marshall, do you want him to succeed so easily? If you wait any longer, I'm afraid it won't be so good." Byron whispered to Marshall not far away.
The young man from the Mellon family smiled and looked at Byron: "That woman is clearly instructed by Chen. Is it too much to encourage me to bid against Chen Huo?"
"He is a rich man, just think that he is trying to contribute some effort to the poor children in the world. He can't let him succeed so simply." Byron said with a wretched smile on his face.
"Byron, you have hurt my dignity. Do you think I will lose?" Marshall Mellon smiled without seeing her.
Seeing that the girl from Sumitomo's family on the stage was about to hit the hammer, Byron looked anxious: "Then you scream, if you don't increase the price, it will really make him successful!"
Seeing Marshall smiling and shaking his head without getting into a trap, Byron finally couldn't help but show up in public: "I'll pay $1 million."
Just as many people secretly complained about Byron, a foreigner who wanted to hug him from both sides, Chen Hongtao in the distance felt Byron's smirk and provocative gaze.
"Damn, why did this bitch come out..." Chen Hongtao couldn't help but curse in a low voice as Mitsui Chika looked at her.
