Back to 1995

Chapter 135
It was the first time to participate in such a formal occasion with Song Yang, and Jenny was naturally a little nervous, fiddling with her evening dress from time to time.

Today's charity event was prepared by Adrian. It is a charity fundraising event for the unemployed in Houston and those in need of medical treatment. To put it bluntly, it is also for the upcoming general election of Houston mayor.

The scale of the charity event is not large, but the identities of the participants are not simple. Basically, they are powerful figures in Houston and Texas. Being brought by Song Yang to participate in such an occasion, Jenny can't help showing a little timidity.

Seeing Jenny's expression, Song Yang took her hand and said with a smile, "You are the focus of tonight!"

Song Yang's words are really not coaxing Jenny. Those who participated in today's event are basically a group of middle-aged people or even bad old men. After all, it took decades to climb to the current position .

As for Song Yang, it cannot be said that there are none, but it is quite rare. Song Yang can bring Jenny to this kind of occasion, and those bad old men can bring mistresses who are dozens of years younger than them here? !

"Song!"

Song Yang came to a club, and as soon as he got out of the car, Adrian's right-hand man, Chief of Staff Matthews, immediately greeted him.

Compared with the previous few meetings, Matthews is now more enthusiastic when facing Song Yang, and his poker face is now showing a smile.

Looking at Song Yang, Matthews didn't know how much his position on Song Yang had changed since he met Song Yang!
When they first met Song Yang, Matthews and Adrian thought that Song Yang was an upstart with some potential, but he was worth tens of millions in Houston, so he was basically well-known. It's just a usual method.

But then, even if he was far away in Houston, Matthews could hear the movement of Song Yang. Up to now, Song Yang has become one of the billionaires in America, and he may enter the billionaire In the American Knife Club, even people like Xiang Dang and Donkey Dang are already big money owners who have been paid attention to and wooed!

Not to mention for Adrian personally, a big private benefactor like Song Yang is simply hard to come by. If he can get Song Yang's full support, then Adrian will not need to spend any more campaign funds in the future If he is worried, he will be able to straighten his back and deal with those opponents.

Not to mention Song Yang's industry. The Internet is the headquarters of the Donkey Party. In this industry, it is really uncommon to have a big figure who has a close relationship with the Xiangdang. People, but only Larry Ellison, the first generation of Oracle, a Silicon Valley madman.

Facing Song Yang now, Adrian naturally wants to win him over. As Adrian's chief of staff, Matthews naturally understands this.

Song Yang and Jenny followed Matthews into the club and came to a small auditorium, which is today's home stadium.

When Song Yang entered and saw Song Yang and Jenny, many people who had already entered the venue looked at them. It was really a place where a group of middle-aged people were the main ones. Disaster.

But looking at Matthews who led the way for Song Yang and Song Yang, those who found out Song Yang's identity all nodded to Song Yang with a smile on his face. Even if he didn't want to make friends with Song Yang, no one wanted to offend Amei Liga is a newly promoted billionaire, everyone present knows this...

"Miss Jenny, you are the jewel of Houston, no wonder Song can never forget Houston!"

During the break in the auditorium, Adrian, who was talking with his wife with other people, walked over when he saw Song Yang and the two who had arrived, and praised Jenny.

"Member Adrian!" Facing Adrian, who may become the next boss of Houston, Jenny was a little cautious. Jenny had never thought before that one day she would deal with such a person and get the other party's support. tout.

"Jenny, are you still in college?!"

In this case, Mrs. Adrian is much more seasoned. Coupled with Adrian's explanation, Mrs. Adrian directly grabbed Jenny, showing a warm scene of forgetting the year.

"In the Art Department of Southern Methodist University." Jenny said to Mrs. Adrian.

Hearing this, Mrs. Adrian exclaimed in "surprise", "This is the best art academy in western America..."

As she spoke, Mrs. Adrian took Jenny aside, admired the artwork of this club, and introduced the celebrity family members of Houston to Jenny.

With Adrian's care, the big cream cake should not be a disadvantage, but Song Yang knows that in this kind of occasion, those so-called celebrities and high-society women have very high requirements for bloodlines, background, clothing, etiquette, etc. high.

Once you say the wrong thing or wear the wrong clothes, you will be ridiculed as a vulgar and unmannered woman. Even female stars are no exception. Why are some Hollywood actresses so criticized in America? It is because of the gang who control the mainstream discourse power Women repel.

However, with Mrs. Adrian taking care of her, there should be no one who is not open-eyed and will criticize Jenny's behavior.

Song Yang took the wine glass handed over by Adrian, and took a sip, "How about the campaign now?!"

For Adrian, the most important thing is to change from the status of a congressman to the status of the boss of Houston. More people support.

Hearing Song Yang's words, Adrian seemed to be in a good mood, "Member Tom Delay, you have guaranteed me that if nothing happens, after the beginning of the year, I will get a chance to run for the mayor of Houston within the Elephant Party." Nominate!"

Adrian doesn't mind, tell Song Yang these "golden masters" about this kind of news, and tell the people they support, who will be the final winner.

"To the next mayor of Houston!"

Song Yang raised his glass to Adrian and said, Adrian couldn't help but smile when he heard that, "If you want to reach that day, you still need Song's continued support."

At this time, there was a noise outside, and Matthews came over, "The commander-in-chief is about to give a Christmas speech!"

Hearing this, Song Yang and Adrian and other people in the waiting room all walked out to the small auditorium. At this time, the small auditorium was already crowded with many people.

The Christmas speech began with the commander who led America to win World War II. Just like the famous fireside speech, it is an indispensable drama for the commander of America today. Well, translate it, It is the emperor and the people enjoying together...

Although these speeches are basically nonsense, from these speeches and the pictures of Christmas speeches, you can feel the different styles of the various leaders of America.

The TV screen in the auditorium appeared, and the commander-in-chief and the famous wife of the commander-in-chief, who were in the prime of life and at the peak of their lives, appeared on the TV screen.

Those who can participate in Adrian's party are basically people who belong to the Elephant Party or those with a heart for the Elephant Party. In Texas, the red-necked stronghold, there are not many donkey gangsters at all, and they don't even look down on donkey gangsters.

It's just that when seeing the scene on the TV screen, there was a muffled noise in the small auditorium, because the person sitting next to the Grand Commander at the moment was a child of African descent.

In the past, the commander-in-chief's Christmas speech was either with the commander-in-chief's wife or with his family, and even to create a Christmas atmosphere, he would choose a white child to sit next to the commander-in-chief.

But this time, the commander-in-chief broke the rules. There was a child next to the commander-in-chief and his wife. The one next to the commander-in-chief's wife was a white child, while the one next to the commander-in-chief was an African-American...

"The donkey party and the commander-in-chief, how afraid are they of failing next year..."

Song Yang heard a middle-aged man on the side looking at the TV screen, and said with a cold sneer, Song Yang remembered that Adrian had mentioned to him just now that this man was one of the largest landlords in Houston.

Now that Houston wants to build a new building, there is a one-third probability that it is on this person's site. No matter who sits on the throne of Houston mayor and wants to build a large building, he cannot do without the support of this person.

As a traditional red-neck, he was naturally very dissatisfied with the commander-in-chief's method of attracting Africans. In the auditorium, there were also complaints about the commander-in-chief, and Adrian had no intention of stopping it at all. The commander-in-chief supported him, and the commander-in-chief couldn't do anything to him, so he didn't bother to speak for the commander-in-chief and offended his benefactor.

Song Yang watched TV, and the commander played this trick, nothing more than to get African votes for next year's general election.

It’s just that after this time, every year in the future, as long as the commander-in-chief of America delivers a Christmas speech, there must be an African-American child next to him. Liga has been around for 50 years, who can understand America better than... He doesn't care what the rules were before.

"The Christmas story is dear and familiar to all of us, the shepherd and the angel, the wise man and Herod, Mary and Joseph, and at the center of it all, the Holy Child."

Just listen to the first paragraph, and the people at the scene are not interested in listening to it. Basically, the leader of the donkey party, the Christmas speech is the same old way, telling the American people that life is born with suffering, and you must get used to this suffering, and then God bless you. , As for the Xiangdang, it usually requires people to stand up, toss hard, and fight wars by the way.

After reading the Grand Commander's Christmas speech, this charity party basically started. Mrs. Adrian found some items from some celebrities and put them here as auction items, but no minimum price was set. After the mid-term, you can bid to buy it, but generally the price will not be too outrageous.

Everyone who was present knew what they were here for today. According to their close relationship with Adrian, they would spend thousands to tens of thousands of dollars, and the price would not be too high or too eye-catching.

"This necklace was once worn by Hollywood actress Greta Garbo, and it was given by a charity person for this fundraiser!"

As soon as the host on the stage finished speaking, he saw someone raised his hand and quickly said to the audience, "Mr. Bruno Song, you are willing to pay $[-] for this necklace..."
