Chapter 263(1/2)
Third update!
Seeing Li Shurui come in, Xue Gui controlled his anger and forced out a friendly smile, changing his previous harshness.
"Rui Rui."
My mother-in-law, this is indeed true.
He felt particularly sorry for this niece.
"Aunt, aunt, uncle..."
Li Shurui said hello one by one, and then her eyes fell on her cousin Xue Yali's face.
"Yali, long time no see."
"sister."
Xue Yali also raised a smile, as if nothing happened just now.
"Ruirui, come and sit down."
Zou Luoxia quickly smoothed things over, and then naturally noticed Jiang Chen carrying large and small bags.
"Ruirui, is this your boyfriend?"
"Well, his name is Jiang Chen."
Li Shurui nodded generously and admitted, and then introduced Jiang Chen to the elders present.
In fact, when she said hello just now, Jiang Chen checked the door, said hello to these elders in a gentle and respectful manner, and then gave away the cigarettes, wine and tea he bought on the way.
The two sat down.
"sister."
Xue Yali called out, then picked up the bag next to the chair, "This is for you."
"Thanks."
Li Shurui was not polite. Looking at the packaging, she knew it contained Chanel perfume.
"Everyone is here, let them serve the food."
Xue Mingqin opened his mouth.
Among the people here, she is the senior one.
Jiang Chen did not forget to smile politely at the Wall Street arrogant, but the other party's reaction was quite dull, and he just nodded lukewarmly.
But it's normal.
Although they are barely considered "brother-in-law," this is the first time they have met, and one is a college student and the other is a young talent working on Wall Street. Not to mention they are very different, but there is indeed a huge gap in status.
Xue Yali, who had neat short ear-length hair, glanced at Jiang Chen a few times, seeming to be curious about this "brother-in-law".
"Lily, are you still used to living abroad now?"
After the banquet started, Xue Mingqin asked with concern.
"Mom, it's been two years since Yali. What's wrong with her? I haven't seen her find such an excellent boyfriend."
Li Shurui interrupted with a smile.
"Too."
Xue Mingqin nodded and smiled: "Xiao Liu, right?"
"Hello, my name is Liu Hongzhi."
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.
This guy's name is quite grand and extraordinary, and is only one word different from a certain patriotic entrepreneur with a family of loyal and loyal people.
"How did you and Lily meet?"
This kind of family dinner.
Similar problems are inevitable.
"Yali and I met in a Chinese restaurant. I remember it seemed like it was Easter. She was eating there with some classmates. I noticed her as soon as I walked in..."
It's true that I have received advanced education from the West. If it were me, I might not be able to say this. After all, everyone here is elders, and their parents are also here.
Jiang Chen felt ashamed.
"Then what?"
Li Shurui also seems to be quite interested in her cousin's relationship history.
Liu Hongzhi looked at her. In fact, he was surprised by her beauty from the moment she entered the door. Although they are two sisters, they have completely different styles. His girlfriend's sister is undoubtedly more feminine. It's really not like her.
A college student.
But on the surface, he was still polite and said: "Then I pretended that I didn't bring my wallet, and it just so happened that Yali didn't lack sympathy."
Several elders laughed,
Including Xue Gui's expression also softened a bit,
"Sister, where are you? How did we meet?"
Xue Yali asked aloud,
"We are from the same school."
"Xiao Liu, what do you do on Wall Street?"
Xue Shuzhi asked.
"pe."
Of course Xue Mingqin didn't understand, and was too embarrassed to ask, so she could only look at Jiang Chen in a low voice.
"Xiaojiang, what is pe?"
"Aunt Xue, PE is private equity, which helps wealthy people manage assets, make business investments, and increase asset value."
Jiang Chen summarizes it simply.
The so-called private equity just sounds high-end.
The essence is that wealthy people use their wealth to acquire the equity of some small companies, and then through a series of bragging and flattering operations, euphemistically called "market management", to make these small companies look valuable, and then
Be listed and merged.
After these small companies whose prices have been raised are listed and acquired, private equity will quickly sell off their equity in the small companies, thereby increasing the value of wealth.
People like Liu Hongzhi are tools to help wealthy people achieve this.
As an ordinary housewife, Xue Mingqin certainly doesn't understand this, but Xue Shuzhi, who works in the state-owned enterprise department, definitely understands.
"You have become a private equity fund manager at such a young age, which is really impressive."
Private equity fund managers are fundamentally different from some so-called managers who teach you to trade stocks and commodities.
Most of the latter are low-level swindlers who deceive ordinary people, but the former's rank is much higher.
Private equity funds basically start with a million dollars, so they are definitely a game for the rich.
"My sister-in-law, I'm sorry. There are many people on Wall Street who are better than me."
Liu Hongzhi adjusted his glasses, looking very low-key and humble.
"How many funds do you manage now?"
Xue Shuzhi's husband Chai Song asked.
"If converted into RMB..."
Liu Hongzhi pondered for a moment, as if calculating, "...probably more than 50 million."
More than 50 million...
Xue Mingqin looked shocked.
Zou Luoxia, who had probably heard her daughter say something about it, was beaming with joy. How could she pass up this opportunity to show off her face in front of her relatives? She deliberately said in a subtle tone: "So many?"
"What do you know? This is other people's money. He just helps manage it." Xue Gui said.
"That's very impressive, but it's more than 50 million. Xiaoliu, your annual income must be very high, right?"
Zou Luoxia asked seemingly casually.
"mom……"
Xue Yali shouted.
It's indeed impolite to inquire about other people's income, but Liu Hongzhi didn't seem to mind, smiling politely.
"Auntie, actually my income is not high, probably around a million,"
Make millions a year.
If this were placed in China, it would be the income that only regional directors of some large companies can get!
To be continued...
