"Dear Sir Brown, thank you for coming to support me, and I have a gracious invitation from me!"
Amid everyone's surprise, Shi Zhijian said to Brown with a smile.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, you and I are not outsiders!" Sir Brown's words once again told everyone that Shi Zhijian had a close relationship with him, and their friendship was unimaginable.
"It's like this. I didn't bring any gifts when I first arrived, and I just promised this young lady named Di Xiang to give her an expensive gift, so I want to take this bloody horse that I bought from you.
, and the contract signed by Mr. Charlie will be transferred to her!" Shi Zhijian said calmly.
"What? Give a beautiful girl such a gift worth a million?" Everyone at the scene was shocked. They never dreamed that Shi Zhijian would be so generous, and it would be worth a million!
Master Charlie was stunned. What do you mean? It's like transferring my deed of betrayal to Di Xiang?
Am I a slave?
Am I that lowly?
At this moment, Master Charlie felt sad and had an urge to cry.
President Mark's eyes widened and he pricked up his ears, wondering if he heard correctly.
Di Xiang's beautiful eyes widened and she looked at Shi Zhijian in disbelief.
Before that, she kept comparing Shi Zhijian with Charlie, and decided that Shi Zhijian was no match for Charlie, one day at a time, but in an instant the situation was reversed, Shi Zhijian became the high-ranking person in the sky, while Charlie was directly thrown into the dust!
"I wonder if Miss Di Xiang would like to accept my gift?" Shi Zhijian asked with a smile.
"Uh, what?" Di Xiang woke up and was at a loss.
Shi Zhijian seemed to have guessed that she would do this. He turned to look at President Mark and said, "It seems that Miss Di Xiang is in a bit of a dilemma, but it doesn't matter. How about Mr. Mark collects it on her behalf?"
"Ah, what? Do you want me to accept this million-dollar BMW?" President Mark was stunned for a moment, and then stabilized his mind. After all, he had experienced strong winds and waves. After thinking about it for a moment, he smiled and said, "That's a bit embarrassing.
, After all, this gift is too precious..." He said, but took a step forward and pretended to accept the gift.
President Mark has been a bank boss for so many years, and he has long developed a habit of being obsessed with profit. To put it bluntly, he doesn't take advantage of it unless he takes advantage of it. What's more, this advantage is as high as one million US dollars - it can make you laugh out of your dreams!
There was a commotion at the scene, some were envious, some were jealous, and some called him shameless for selling his daughter! After all, he had just encouraged his daughter to accept Charlie’s trophy, and in the blink of an eye, he accepted Shi Zhijian’s gift!
"Thank you, Mr. Shi, for your gift. I'll accept it happily!" Mark took the reins handed over by Shi Zhijian and smiled happily.
"Come, let's take a photo!" Shi Zhijian and President Mark stood side by side, arm in arm, looking very intimate.
Crackling!
The surrounding spotlights flashed.
In the camera, President Mark’s face was filled with a happy smile, and he was grinning from ear to ear.
After the filming was completed, Mark turned to look at Shi Zhijian and lowered his voice: "To be honest, dear Shi, as a father, I am very touched that you went to such great lengths to pursue my daughter! Our family Di Xiang can have you like you.
I am also very happy to have a handsome and rich boyfriend!"
"Uh, what did you say?" Shi Zhijian was stunned for a moment, then looked at Mark and leaned over and said, "To be honest, you got it wrong!"
"Uh, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is that from the beginning to the end, I was not chasing your daughter——"
"Who is that?!"
"Of course it's you!"
"Ah?" President Mark opened his mouth wide with disbelief on his face.
"Why, you still don't understand? Don't you think my Chinese name is familiar?" Shi Zhijian reminded.
Mark thought, who cares about the names of Chinese people? They are all so difficult to pronounce, but suddenly he seemed to remember something, looked at Shi Zhijian in horror, pointed at him and said: "You are, you are... the president of Shinhwa Group
,that Shi Zhijian?!"
Shi Zhijian smiled strangely, "You finally remembered. How about it? Is it okay to get this million-dollar BMW?"
Mark quickly wanted to throw away the reins, as if it was a venomous snake and very hot to the touch!
"Be careful about your image, President Mark! I know that Donny Rothschild values you very much, but now, think about what he would think when he sees you and I taking a photo together and behaving so intimately?"
"Are you cheating on me?"
"Why do you say this? You have to pay attention to your attitude. There are many people here. Come on, smile, and let's take a photo together!" Shi Zhijian once again put his arm around President Mark and smiled at the camera.
Crackling!
Those reporters didn't know too much, so they took pictures like crazy.
President Mark’s smile was stiff, uglier than crying.
Di Xiang didn't understand. Dad was fine just now, why did he suddenly become like this?
After taking the photo, Shi Zhijian patted President Mark on the shoulder and said, "Are you interested in joining me for a drink tonight?"
"Sorry, I still have things to do!"
"What to do? Go to Donnie and explain? Tell him that you and I have nothing to do with each other. Do you think he will believe it?"
Mark shut up.
"Also, Sir Brown was drinking together!" Shi Zhijian threw out the bait.
Mark's eyes lit up immediately, "Okay, I'll go!"
…
Di Xiang didn't know what her father and Shi Zhijian were talking about, but they looked awkward and intimate.
Charlie can't control that much. In his eyes, Mark is a "snobbish" person. He doesn't betray himself, but also hooks up with his biggest enemy. What a slut!
"Bullshit, bah!" Charlie spat hard at Mark.
The activity of pulling the first horse ended in a wonderful way.
For the media, today's news is too exciting.
Charlie and Alexander aspire to win the "Rose Cup" championship!
Charlie expresses his love to Miss Dickson, the daughter of the president of the First Bank of France!
Shi Zhijian was born out of nowhere!
He is actually the president of Hong Kong Shinhwa Group and a third-class Earl of the British Empire!
A foreigner, but he shines brightly in France and steals the show!
For a time, the whole of Paris was excited about this mysterious Chinese, and all kinds of discussions came out one after another!
"Did you hear that? The relationship between Count Shi Zhijian and Count Brown is extremely good!"
"Yes, we still have a good relationship with President Mark!"
"I heard that President Mark is going to marry his daughter to this earl, and that million-dollar BMW is a token of love!"
All kinds of comments have come out one after another, some are fabricated and some are speculative, and they are as outrageous as they are outrageous!
In the hotel's large room.
Donny Rothschild put down the newspaper in his hand, glanced at the financial tycoon Buffett sitting on the sofa next to him and said, "What do you think about this matter?"
Buffett rubbed his brows in confusion. He hadn't had a good rest for three days in a row. Especially last night, he stared at the stock market all night, and then met with his traders in the conference room to discuss plans until dawn. No matter how energetic he was, he couldn't stand it.
live.
"Dear Mr. Downey, why did you call me here so late to ask about this?" Buffett said a little unhappy, "I am a financier, an investment expert, not an emotional expert, let alone a news analysis critic!"
Donnie smiled: "Looks like I asked the wrong person!"
"Yes!" Buffett said, "like this one plus one equals two problem, the best way to solve it is to call the person involved to ask in person - as for those reported by the media, just like when we speculate in stocks, many of them are deliberately released
It’s out there to fool those poor stock investors!”
"I understand, maybe I should call President Mark now!" Downey squinted his eyes, held his chin, and tapped his fingers on the table.
…
After President Mark left the racecourse, he sent someone to take his daughter Di Xiang home first.
Too many things happened today. Di Xiang knew that her father might have other things to do, so she didn't ask too many questions.
When she got into the car and saw her father and Shi Zhijian standing side by side, she felt a strange feeling in her heart for some reason.
Shi Zhijian took President Mark to the private dinner prepared by Sir Brown.
This is a high-end private custom restaurant on Champs Elysees Street.
The huge restaurant has been booked by Sir Brown.
When Sir Brown saw Shi Zhijian bringing Governor Mark over, he was not surprised. After all, he could easily give away a BMW worth one million US dollars. This shows that Shi Zhijian attaches great importance to this governor.
"Hello, President Mark!" Brown and Mark knew each other. They had dealt with each other before, but for some reasons, they were not too familiar with each other.
Mark shook hands with Sir Brown very reservedly.
Brown said hello to Shi Zhijian again. They were very familiar with each other and didn't exchange much greetings.
"Please take a seat, you two. I have prepared a sumptuous banquet for you all tonight."
The retro dining table was lit with candles and filled with delicacies. The wine was French top red wine carefully arranged by Sir Brown, which was said to be Louis XIV's favorite at the time.
Shi Zhijian is not a Frenchman and has not studied red wine deeply, but President Mark is different. He couldn’t help but be speechless when he saw the red wine. It was a treasure that was about to be extinct. A bottle was worth at least 50,000 US dollars. In this era, many people
Not only can people not afford to drink it, but they are also not qualified to own it!
When Mark thought of this, he couldn't help but glance at Shi Zhijian sitting next to him, and said to himself: "It seems that Sir Brown is very good to this Peter Jian, and he is willing to give up such a fine famous wine."
"President Mark, you are a distinguished guest tonight. I wonder if this fine wine is to your taste?" Who is Sir Brown? One look at Mark's expression and you can tell what he is thinking.
"Ahem, is this wine... specially prepared for me?"
"certainly!"
"How can I be so virtuous and capable..."
"Don't be modest, Your Excellency! In fact, I have been on good terms with you for a long time. Although I have known your name for a long time, I have not been able to sit down and have a good chat, let alone have a good drink. It is a rare chance for me to have this chance today. I hope you will appreciate your favor and have a drink to your heart's content!"
After Brown finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and the restaurant steward personally came to help everyone open the drinks, especially letting President Mark appreciate the red wine and let him take a small sip before pouring it one by one.
President Mark didn't expect that he was the most distinguished guest tonight, and he was a little flattered for a moment.
The drinks are so high-end, not to mention the food. They are basically the most famous French dishes, foie gras, cheese, and snails. Moreover, Paris, France has always been a city of gourmet food, not to mention all these delicacies in front of you.
!
At a dinner like this, everyone usually does not get into the main topic directly, but talks about other things. As the host, Sir Brown is an expert, and he discussed the exquisiteness of French cuisine with Shi Zhijian and Mark.
When talking about Western food, French food cannot be avoided. Many people even regard French food as Western food directly. After all, French food is so famous in the world that it has become one of the pronouns of France like French fashion.
In this way, Italians may not be happy and would bring up the allusion that an Italian princess married a French king and created French cuisine. However, in terms of the exquisite ingredients, the exquisite cooking, and the poetry and artistry contained in the dishes, among the major European cuisines
It has to be French cuisine.
People's established impressions of French cuisine, such as extravagance and extravagance, all come from the classical period of French cuisine - the famous King Louis XIV gave French cuisine synonymous with luxury.
It is said that the luxurious palace banquets during the Louis XIV period often lasted for several days and nights. His super appetite and super digestion ability were really amazing. According to historical records, Louis XIV could eat four plates of different soups in one meal.
, a whole chick, a ring dove, a large plate full of salad, some mutton cut with garlic sauce, two large pieces of ham, a full plate of snacks, fruits, and jams, and this can only be regarded as an extremely ordinary performance.
It’s no wonder that French cuisine has developed to this day. The number of dishes in a dinner is often many more than other European cuisines. In addition to a good appetite, Louis XIV also worked hard to cultivate France’s own local chefs. He often held national competitions.
Culinary competitions and Le Cordon Bleu medals are awarded. Today, Le Cordon Bleu is still a prestigious institution for learning Western cuisine.
The French Revolution not only cut off the king's head, but also cut off the luxury of French cuisine, making French court cuisine gradually become lonely and become a legend. However, the rise of home-style dishes exuding pastoral natural flavor has
This became the trend of French cuisine. Common-style dishes such as bouillabaisse, Provence stew, etc. gradually replaced the luxurious palace dishes.
Speaking of this, Sir Brown suddenly stopped and said: "President Mark, now it's your choice. Should you continue to taste my table of delicious food, or go and taste that Yankee's cheese?"
"Uh, what do you mean?"
Brown smiled and looked at Shi Zhijian meaningfully.
Shi Zhijian also laughed.
At this time————
Jingle bell bell!
The restaurant phone rang.
Soon the restaurant steward came over, bowed very gentlemanly and said: "Mr. Mark, your phone number!"
Mark was stunned for a moment, seemed to have thought of something, and looked directly at Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian put down his knife and fork, took the tablecloth and dipped it in the corner of his mouth elegantly, then looked up at Mark and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. President! I called Mr. Downey before you came here.
You are a guest here!"
"What?"
A jingle!
President Mark dropped the knife in his hand to the ground in shock!
