"Mr. Thor, I don't understand, what qualifications are a Chinese person who has such an important position in the Sol Fund?" a blue-eyed legal person questioned.

When Thor announced the establishment of the "Sor" fund in public, all the guests were very surprised.

In particular, when Sole decided to hand over two very important positions in the "Fund" to Sheng Xiyuan and Lu Xiyan, it caused many British and French people present to be confused and questioned.

After all, George's affairs were a disadvantage. If the other party was not a guest invited by Thor, they would not give up.

"If you have the medical achievements of the two of them and can save my life on the operating table, I can also hire you to serve as one of the two positions above." Saul came to Shanghai alone in his early twenties and founded the Lai An Foreign Company. He was a very strong person himself, so he went back directly.

The questioning legal person was a little embarrassed and retreated with a embarrassed expression.

"Does anyone have any questions about my decision?" Thor asked.

"Mr. Saul, I would like to ask, you gave Professor Sheng and Dr. Lu the two most important positions of the fund. Is there any necessary supervision of the use of the fund?" A middle-aged man wearing glasses and a gentlemanly demeanor came forward and asked.

"Of course, I will let my housekeeper Oberman be the general manager of the fund, Mr. Carlos, do you still have any questions?" Thor replied.

"I feel relieved that Housekeeper Oberman is the general manager. Thank you Mr. Sol." The man named Carlos said with a high wine glass in his hand.

"Mr. Sol, is the fund relief open to our French Concession Refugee Relief Committee?" asked a member of the Refugee Relief Committee.

"certainly."

"Mr. Saul, what is the way the fund raises funds?"

"When the fund was established, I would first make a voluntary donation. I would open an account in the bank in the name of registering a fund, and formulate a specific charter after the specific operation."

"Mr. Saul, is the foundation collaborating with the International Red Cross?" asked a woman in professional attire.

"Miss, are you a reporter?"

"Sorry, I'm an occupational disease." The question was a female reporter from the French Reuters news agency in Shanghai.

"Haha, if necessary, you can naturally cooperate." Saul smiled slightly and answered this question seriously.

"Thanks."

...

Anyone is afraid of death, especially rich people. They have a lot of wealth and enjoy a luxurious life, and they are even more afraid of death.

No matter how much money you have, you can't buy your life.

Establishing a medical research and relief fund will also say that one day the results of this research can be used for yourself. Moreover, if you do charity, in the words of the Chinese, this is also accumulating virtue and doing good deeds and can also win people's hearts.

In fact, many people are willing to do this, but no one takes the lead.

Since Thor announced this in public, it was basically decided, otherwise he would be joking about his credibility.

Saul is the president of the French General Chamber of Commerce and the general manager of Lai An Foreign Company. No matter who has the identity, you must pay attention to the external influence.

As for that George, he has been forgotten at this moment, and some people have even decided to draw a clear line with this George in the future.

However, Lu Xiyan heard Monte mention that George is responsible for pharmaceutical-related import affairs at Jardinet Foreign Company.

Monte's voice was about to smuggle drugs, but I'm afraid it was unrelated to George.

He wouldn't deal with people like George who were unvirtuous and uncompetent. If Monte really wanted to get involved with him, he would have to stop getting involved.

There is no need to mess with yourself for such a person.

The fund matter will not be established for a while, and related registration matters, legal procedures, rules and regulations are formulated, etc.

Of course, for Lu Xiyan, the work of an independent director is quite easy, and basically does not need to do anything, and at most it only signs the documents.

Sheng Xiyuan, the chief scientist, is quite important, including the establishment of the laboratory, the selection of projects, the recruitment of researchers, etc.

Therefore, after Saul sincerely apologized on behalf of the French Guild Hall, Sheng Xiyuan's anger became much less and Xi Mengyao received considerable compensation.

Unpleasant things are quickly forgotten.

The banquet continued, and the enthusiastic waltz sounded.

"Meimei, will I ask you to dance?"

Meng Fanxing nodded. In this occasion, dancing is a necessary skill.

Lu Xiyan bent down slightly, then took Meng Fanxing's hand and slid into the dance field.

"Just now, if you came one step later, things might be out of control." Meng Fanxing whispered.

"After all, in the eyes of these foreigners, we are just sick men in East Asia." Lu Xiyan said, "The Japanese propaganda is actually not without temptation."

"Yes, we are looked down upon by Western powers. In addition to the national and social reasons we have produced in the past, there are also reasons for our people themselves." Meng Fanxing said.

"Chinese people should be self-reliant." Lu Xiyan nodded. He had experienced much more humiliation than tonight.

The upper class may not be all civilized gentlemen. Thinking about these Westerners who came to China from thousands of miles away, what identities they had in the past, it is not difficult to understand that people like George will appear.

There is another meaning of being well-dressed, that is, being a bird or a beast.

"Meimei, I will not take you with you at such a banquet in the future." Lu Xiyan said.

"Why, do you think the person who brought me out and threw you away?" Meng Fanxing said with a blank look. She is not the kind of person who has never seen the world before. She has many ways to deal with this situation alone, but it is much more difficult to have one person.

"No, actually I want to hide the charm of the golden house." Lu Xiyan said with a chubby smile.

"I am not Chen Ajiao of Emperor Wu of Han." Meng Fanxing gave Lu Xiyan a blank look. The task given to her was to collect relevant domestic and foreign strategic intelligence. Such a place where celebrities gathered is a good opportunity to inquire about the news.

Businessmen are the most sensitive to political situations, and intelligence work is not limited to military and government agencies.

"Okay." Lu Xiyan smiled.

"Meimei, your dance is good, where can I learn it?"

"Do you want to know?"

"think……"

"I won't tell you." Meng Fanxing smiled mischievously. It was rare to see her such a naughty side. Lu Xiyan couldn't help but feel a little confused when he saw her.

At the end of the song, applause was everywhere, Meng Fanxing's face was flushed, full of vitality and charming.

He brought Meng Fanxing a glass of juice.

"Congratulations, Dr. Lu." A tall Frenchman walked over with a wine glass.

"Thank you." Lu Xiyan nodded politely. The upper class of the French Concession is actually a fame and fortune. If it weren't for Thor's announcement of the establishment of the Thor Fund, he would have been specially appointed as an independent director, and I'm afraid no one would have paid attention to him.

"May I ask this beautiful lady?"

"My fiancée, Meng Fanxing." Lu Xiyan introduced generously.

"Hello Miss Meng, I'm glad to know you," the Frenchman introduced, "My name is Olevi, and I'm a lawyer."

"Hello, Mr. Olevi." Meng Fanxing nodded slightly.

It turned out to be a lawyer. Lu Xiyan smiled slightly and accepted Olevi's business card. Yuanda Law Firm, the name is quite intimidating.

People kept coming to talk, of course, most of their targets were aimed at Lu Xiyan. This yellow-skinned Chinese might become a newcomer among the Chinese in the French Concession in the future.

After a while, Lu Xiyan had more than a dozen business cards in his pocket, and even Meng Fanxing received a lot of praise, as well as Meng Fanxing's fluent French.

"Meimei, you speak French very well. They all thought you had studied in France as well." Lu Xiyan laughed secretly, but Meng Fanxing's language talent is indeed nothing. After learning French for more than a month, she was able to communicate easily. Many people can't compare with this learning ability.

"Hehe, actually, I just understood a little bit, and then memorized what you usually taught me." Meng Fanxing couldn't help but feel a little proud.

"You're fat, you're still panting."

After the banquet, Sol sent a driver to send Lu Xiyan and Meng Fanxing back, and also personally issued two membership certificates for the French guild hall.

One was given to Lu Xiyan and the other was given to Meng Fanxing.

This is a precedent.

Thor did this not to treat Lu Xiyan in particular, but that the French guild halls could no longer stick to the past rules and only issued membership to some people in France, Britain, the United States and other countries.

The pressure comes from Japan, and the French guild halls are forced to modify the membership system.

Since the Japanese can join the association, then the Chinese can do it naturally.

Back home.

"Brother An Zi, have you really agreed to Mr. Thor to serve as the independent director of the Thor Fund?" After Meng Fanxing came back, she took off her pearl necklace and took off her cheongsam. That night, she was cautious, afraid of breaking the expensive clothes.

"I think this is a good thing. If someone is willing to spend money on medical assistance and medical research, it is also worth it for me to do my best." Lu Xiyan nodded.

"Yes." In front of the dressing table, Meng Fanxing was taking off his makeup and suddenly said, "Brother An Zi, come and take off the earrings for me. It's too tight."

Lu Xiyan walked over and looked at the face of Yichen and Yixi in the mirror, and couldn't help but feel a hint of tenderness in his heart: "Meimei, my dad said yesterday that we would get married soon."

"What did you say?" Meng Fanxing'er trembled gently.

"I said that my parents just left. According to the rules of my hometown, I have to keep mourning for three years and deal with it temporarily." Lu Xiyan said, "At least in a short time, my father will not mention this matter to us again."

Meng Fanxing felt sure, but she felt a little disappointed. Her situation was special and she needed the organization's approval if she got married.

"Okay, there's a little slight bleeding. You wait a moment, I'll disinfect it." Lu Xiyan took off the earrings for Meng Fanxing.

"good."

"It's getting late, go to bed, and there will be class tomorrow." After disinfecting Meng Fanxing, Lu Xiyan explained and took him out.

In the study room and on the small bed, Lu Xiyan tossed and turned, thinking a lot.

From the afternoon of New Year's Eve, no, it should start from the day when I met Meng Fanxing on the street by Japanese plainclothes on the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month.

His life and his life trajectory have been completely changed.

Perhaps, the moment he recognized Meng Fanxing, he did not reach out to help her or escape with her, so there would be no such things behind him. He guarded that small clinic, simple and peaceful.

No, can he ignore Meng Fanxing and even turn around and leave cruelly. Could it be that he will change what will happen next?

Will Tan Si, Huang San and the others come to him?

This was not his own initiative.

It's still the same, he can't escape. The fate of the nation and the fate of the individual cannot be isolated. He is a Chinese, and the blood of the descendants of Yan and Huang flows in his blood.

Some things have been decided, so you can only go on with your teeth and have no second choice.
