000179 Reception meeting fellows

After passing a mountain bag, the scene in front of me changed drastically. The turns in front of me were a landscape. After turning, it was also a piece of land, but it was just a group of villas.

I saw luxury villas lined up on the mountain in front of me, and tall buildings appeared further away. There were significantly more vehicles on the road and more traffic lights. All this shows that Los Angeles has finally arrived.

From San Francisco to Los Angeles, the total itinerary is 700 kilometers on Highway 1, and you can basically drive a complete itinerary in 8 to 9 hours. But in fact, Xiao Yifei and the others walked for two days.

Along the way, you need to park your car when you encounter beautiful scenery, and have a unique town to visit, and take a group photo of famous attractions. We are originally traveling, so you can have fun. It is really good from north to south. There are parking locations all the way. No matter where you stop, there are a few pictures of the scenery postcards.

In addition, Xiao Yifei had to stop and ask about the farmers from time to time, so he had no position to urge the two ladies. Xiao Yifei's harvest was quite big along the way. Through this journey, he had basically figured out the profits of various plants. When he returned, he went to Central Valley to make a trip, and basically he had a lot of touch on the agriculture in California.

The temperature has been terrified by the temperature along the way. Let’s put it this way, it’s not uncommon to have a T-shirt and thick coat during the day, and it’s not uncommon to have a down jacket in the morning and evening. It’s easy to freeze if the air conditioner is not turned on when sleeping. If the temperature changes more violently, it’s like “wearing a cotton jacket in the morning and wearing gauze in the afternoon”.

Although I haven't even arrived in Santa Monica, the street sign said that the fork next to it was Sunset Avenue. Xiao Yifei asked quickly:

"Go to your house or have fun first."

"Go to your house and put your stuff in there before playing."

So Xiao Yifei turned around and went up to Sunset Avenue. Who knew that Sunset Avenue was too crooked. It actually followed the mountain and was winding and circling at the foot of the mountain. After the car twisted and turned, it had not yet arrived at Beverly Hills. Seeing the 405 Expressway in front, Xiao Yifei finally remembered the surrounding terrain. There were several turns in front of Sunset Avenue. Passing the Los Angeles University nicknamed "a university with white people flooded by Asians" or "Little Asia Enlargement", it also had to pass the Los Angeles Golf Club to get to Beverly Hills. Xiao Yifei directly tapped the steering wheel and simply got on the highway.

This 405 highway is very famous in the Greater Los Angeles area. It starts from the San Fernando Valley in the north, passes through Los Angeles International Airport, Carson, Long Beach, and arrives at the key Irvine to the south. The road is full of population, and it can reach bustling areas such as Beverly Hills and Santa Monica, so traffic is naturally dense. It is known as the most congested highway in Los Angeles. People nicknamed it according to its 405 number, called 4or5. This describes that this highway is often congested, and people can only run 4 or 5 miles per hour on this highway.

Fortunately, Xiao Yifei didn't walk too far. When the car climbed to the top of the mountain, he immediately got off the highway and went straight to Beverly Park.

The guard was still unfamiliar with Xiao Yifei's face. He was unable to swipe his face card and could only take out his pass, so he was released.

This situation has different interpretations in different eyes.

Wang Nan said:

"You guard is really responsible."

Shirley sighed:

"Your property fees must be not low."

Wang Nan asked in confusion:

"Why?"

"I have a classmate in high school here. I contacted her and she said she asked me to go out and play."

“Can’t it be postponed?”

"Sorry, I can't postpone it. She will go to another place to inspect the postgraduate school in the next few days."

"Sisters' Club?"

Shirley nodded.

OK, Xiao Yifei shrugged.

Shirley kissed Xiao Yifei:

"Sorry, you can take Wang Nan to the cocktail party."

Xiao Yifei grinned, this is the only way to go to the cocktail party alone.

In the afternoon, Xiao Yifei went to 704 to sign a rental contract with the tenant and took Wang Nan to the triangle area of ​​Rodeo Avenue.

Not only is there a famous store, but there are also a large number of small studios here that provide customized dresses for guests. Xiao Yifei will definitely have many cocktail parties in the future. Customized suits will definitely fit more and be more personalized than commercial ones.

Speaking of suits, there are roughly 4 cutting methods on the market: European style, British style, American style and Japanese style. There are a lot of the first three types in the domestic market. This kind of suit is suitable for European and American physiques, unless it is tall and burly. It can support the suit, and the first three styles are also good. For people with ordinary figures, it has been improved by the Japanese. Japanese styles suitable for East Asian races are more suitable. However, there are very few such suits in the domestic market, which is also one of the reasons why many people give people a strange feeling when wearing suits.

In the evening, the two of them ate something and drove a Ferrari to the club less than a kilometer. The association helped open the car door, and Xiao Yifei handed the parking guy a tip of $5. The customer service manager Marion, whom he had met, came up:

"Welcome to the New Year's reception and hope you can have a pleasant evening."

Wang Nan took the initiative to take Xiao Yifei's arm and walked into the club.

In several business and interpersonal communications, cocktail parties are very cheap. These cocktail parties are similar, with two tables placed on one side, one with some food on it, and the other with rows of cocktails on it.

The food is exquisitely made, but the portion is very small. No one will eat and drink on such occasions, and everyone comes after dinner. The cocktails are prepared in advance. After the party begins, the bartenders are simply too busy. At that time, everyone can only drink unmade red wine or champagne.

It was only 8:20, and there were still 10 minutes left. There were dozens of people in the hall now, and they were almost halfway there. At this time, everyone gathered together to chat.

Xiao Yifei looked over and knew only three people, and these three were black people. They were Eddie Murphy, Denzel Washington, and one was the one-eyed director of SHIELD. There were other white actors in Beverly Hills, and of course there were, but Xiao Yifei had never seen their videos or shows. Xiao Yifei had seen these three black people. There was also a person with obvious Arab costumes. Xiao Yifei didn't know whether he was the Minister of Environment Turkey or the Crown Prince Nayife.

There were a few yellow-skinned and dark-haired people in the crowd, and Xiao Yifei probably recognized where they were. It seemed that the Beverly Park Owners Association had invited both north and south areas.

A middle-aged Chinese man brought his female companion to see another Chinese man coming in. He probably guessed Xiao Yifei's identity and walked towards him. Xiao Yifei also roughly knew who he was.

"Where, your number 6 is also good."

"Really, I won't say that the area cannot be compared, even the inside cannot be compared."

"Brother Zhu should have bought it very cheaply at that time."

"We bought it in 2005. We bought it for more than 8 million."

Although there is also a swimming pool and tennis court on the 6th, the area of ​​his main house is only more than 800 square meters. The unit area price is not much different from what Xiao Yifei bought. You should know that he bought it in 2005, while Xiao Yifei bought it in 2009. It is normal for the higher the house to be, the higher the unit price.

“So cheap.”

"Can Brother Xiao reveal the transaction price?"

"The two sets have more than 40 million in taxes, and I spent a lot of more than Brother Zhu's."

"Brother, you took a big advantage. The 40 was just built in 2008 and the price was 50 million yuan at that time. My house was built in 2018, and it was impossible to compare with yours. After all, you were designed by a master."

"Brother Xiao, is it really so profitable to build a winery?"

"No, I spent another money on buying a house. If the winery can earn 30 million a year, I will wake up in my dreams. I wonder which industry Brother Zhu is engaged in?"

Zhu Jianqiu and his wife looked at each other again, and there were some problems in their expressions.

"My business is in the country. I used to do textile materials."

“Textile material?”

"It's almost chemical fiber. This business has not been easy to do in recent years. Let's go and let you know a few friends."

Under Zhu Jianqiu's leadership, Xiao Yifei met several successful businessmen. First, he also lived in the South District, and several of Zhu Jianqiu's neighbors: plastic surgeon Simon (No. 4), lawyer Bob (No. 5), real estate businessman Daniel (No. 7), Peyman (No. 8), and others lived in the North District, real estate businessman Charles (No. 35), Laurent (No. 37), and Jameson (No. 70).

Xiao Yifei was shocked by this calculation. He never knew that so many real estate developers lived in Beverly Park.

These people only focus on real estate, and there are many owners who have investment companies or family-owned investment companies, and these investment companies also partially own shares in real estate companies.

Several people had just started to greet him, and then Lei Shidong and a few old men walked into the hall. Lei Shidong was considered a top figure in the entire Beverly Park on his personal wealth and influence. As soon as he came in, everyone couldn't help but look at him, and then he said hello to him and chatted with him for a few words.

Xiao Yifei wouldn't be so eye-lossed and come over now.

"Where are those Chinese in the community?"

At this time, a few people came in from the door, two strong men in the middle, and on both sides were their female companions. When Xiao Yifei saw that one was Stallone and the other was Governor Schwarzenegger.

It seems that they are the last guests. The owners of the owners' association have already planned to walk to a small stage. Zhu Jianqiu seized the time and said:

"There is another Taiwanese, who is a woman. She doesn't know what she does at home and didn't come today."
Chapter completed!
