My 1999

"Chinese?"

"Yes."

"There are many Chinese students among my students. They are all very smart and study seriously."

"Thank you for your compliment. China has a tradition of respecting teachers and morality, and we are all very happy to learn from knowledgeable and respectable elders."

Marcel Yerry smiled slightly, and he could feel the compliment in Xu Liang's words.

But he doesn't have much in the mood for conversation right now.

"These two cute little guys are both my grandchildren?"

Kisses from a generation apart are the same everywhere.

Marcel's attitude was decidedly more cordial.

"Dad, this is my sister Deren, and this is my brother Carlos. They are twins. They are eight months old now."

"Grandpa!"

Without any instructions, the two little guys started screaming.

Marcel agreed happily and took the little girl from Xu Liang's arms.

The bodyguard who came with him put down the gift.

It’s your first time visiting your home, and there are definitely things you can’t miss.

There are more than a dozen items in total.

"It's good that you can come, you don't need so many things." The woman said quickly.

"Mom, this is our little thought, and it didn't cost much." Christina said quickly.

Having said that, how could Marcel and Wendy, who live in Paris, not recognize the logos of those luxury goods?

"Are you married?"

Marcel suddenly asked.

"No. We're not planning to get married."

Christina said directly.

The old couple were not surprised by this.

The marriage rate in France has dropped below 30%.

In France today, not getting married is the norm, and getting married is an accident.

So they didn't feel surprised by their daughter's choice.

“Can you share with us how you met?”

"Of course." Christina had a happy smile on her face, with memories in her eyes.

The old couple saw this in their eyes and instantly understood that their daughter had completely fallen.

"Xu is the founder of Hongmeng Company and Hanhua. When I was at Time Magazine, I happened to be arranged to interview him..."

"etc."

After Marcel interrupted, he looked at Xu Liang, who was sitting aside, in shock.

"You said he is the founder of Hongmeng Company? The Hongmeng Company from China?"

Although he is only a professor, he will also pay attention to major news such as the Forbes Global Rich List when it is announced.

Xu Liang, a Chinese who is different from the West, will naturally be particularly eye-catching.

"Yes."

"So Liang Xu, who is second on the Forbes list of the world's richest people, is him?"

Christina's beautiful face showed a look of pride, and she nodded a little reservedly.

The old couple's faces instantly showed shock.

She never expected that the man her daughter would bring back would be a world-class super rich man.

After looking at Xu Liang blankly for a while, Wendy stood up suddenly.

"I'll make tea."

She had heard that Chinese people generally like to drink tea.

Watching her mother hug her son and leave in a hurry, Christina chased after him helplessly.

Marcel, who calmed down a little, swallowed.

He never thought in his life that he would be related to a person of this level.

"you……?"

Xu Liang smiled and said: "Although Christina and I are not married, we already have two lovely children and there will be more in the future.

According to Chinese tradition, you are also my father.

So you don't have to care too much about my identity. "

Seeing his gentle attitude, Marcel's nervous mood gradually calmed down.

But looking at Xu Liang, all kinds of thoughts were running through his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

At this time, Wendy and Christina came over carrying cups.

"This is the Indian black tea that my mother and the others usually drink. It tastes pretty good. You can try it."

Christina poured a glass and handed it to Xu Liang.

He took it and took a sip.

“It tastes really good.”

After hearing what he said, the old couple relaxed a little.

Christina sensed the awkward and tense atmosphere, and of course she understood what was going on.

Then he continued the previous topic and told the story of how she met Xu Liang, naturally hiding the existence of Helen.

"Mom and Dad, I will stay in Paris to work and live in the future, and we will often bring Deren and Chris to visit you in the future," Christina said.

"Honey, this is the best news I've heard this year." Wendy said excitedly.

Almost every mother wants to have her children around her.

"Have you found a house? If not, I can help." Marcel continued.

"We've already found it. It's at No. 129 Foch Street."

Marcel fell silent.

As a Parisian, of course he knew Avenue Foch.

Anyone who can live here is either rich or noble.

But thinking about Xu Liang's identity, they were not surprised.

Click.

The sound of the door opening came.

"Dad, Mom, are there any guests at home? There are many cars parked outside."

A rich young man's voice came.

"grandparents."

Two little guys rushed over from the foyer.

Seeing Xu Liang, the two little guys stopped suddenly.

"Claude, Caroline, come here quickly."

Seeing grandma waving, two little guys who looked about six or seven years old ran over quickly.

Soon a young man in his thirties also walked over from the foyer.

After seeing Xu Liang, he was stunned for a moment.

"Brad."

Christina stood up and went to meet him.

"Christina?"

Looking at the brother and sister hugging each other, Xu Liang stood up.

Christina told him about her family.

Father Marcel has only one sister, the famous star, great beauty, Christiana Yeri, known as the most beautiful La Traviata.

She herself has an older brother and a younger brother.

His elder brother, Brad Yerry, inherited his father's legacy and is currently a professor of molecular biology at the Sorbonne University.

Currently married with two children.

His younger brother, Laurent Yerry, is a sophomore in mathematics at the University of Paris VI, also known as Pierre and Marie Curie University.

"Christina, I'm so glad you're back."

"I'm sorry, I have been too busy at work in the past three years. But I will move back to Paris to work and live, so that we can be together often in the future."

"This is really good news."

Christina smiled and nodded, then turned around quickly.

"Brad, let me introduce you. This is my lover, Liang Xu. He is a talented Chinese."

After Brad Yerry looked up and down, he smiled and stretched out his right hand.

Although Xu Liang's photos have been spread all over the world, foreigners still have some face blindness when it comes to Chinese people.

So he didn't recognize it for a while.

"Hello."

Xu Liang smiled.

As the brother of Christina's mother, Brad is also a very handsome man.

Although a bit raunchy, combined with the French melancholy temperament and the bookishness cultivated by years of studying, it is quite similar to Hollywood's Adrien Brody.

"You are the strongest Chinese I have ever seen." There was a hint of amazement in Brad's tone.

Xu Liang is now 187 centimeters tall. He practices martial arts all year round and can eat, so his body looks very strong.

Standing there, it gives people a strong oppressive force.

"Thanks."

Claude noticed the two little guys being held in their parents' arms, looking surprised.

"they are……?"

"These are our children. Sister Deren and brother Chris." Christina smiled.

"Are you married?"

"No. We're not planning to get married."

"Wise decision." Brad said with some emotion.

"Claude, Caroline, this is aunt and uncle..."

"Aunt, uncle."

Christina quickly agreed and said with a smile: "Claude had just entered kindergarten when I went to the United States, and Caroline was only two years old. I didn't expect that they would be so old when we met again."

Xu Liang took out the gift he had prepared in advance from his pocket and handed it over.

"This is a gift from my uncle to you."

He had already investigated Christina’s family thoroughly.

So I prepared gifts in advance.

Seeing the exquisite packaging box, although the two little guys wanted it very much, they still subconsciously looked at their father.

"Remember to say thank you."

The two little guys quickly took it over happily.

"Thank you, uncle."

Xu Liang smiled and touched their little heads.

After saying hello, everyone sat down.

"Mom, where is Laurent? Today is Sunday, why is he not at home?" Christina asked about her youngest brother.

Speaking of her youngest son, Wendy showed a headache on her face.

"I guess he went somewhere to play. I'll call him later."

"Christina, since you are back, take care of him when you have time. Laurent listens to you the most." Brad said.

"Um."

Everyone chatted, and soon Brad also knew Xu Liang's identity.

The look of disbelief on his face lasted for a long time.

However, Xu Liang could feel that after his identity was exposed, Marcel, Wendy and his wife, and Brad all became cautious in front of him.

He doesn't like this feeling of alienation.

But the gap in wealth and status makes this gap inevitable.

Over time, he got used to it.

They stayed at Yeli's house for lunch at noon, then visited the Xu family mansion on Foch Street in the afternoon, and stayed here to have dinner together in the evening before leaving.

Three days after being reunited with his family, Xu Liang had already contacted the University of Paris I.

According to Xu Liang's arrangement, Christina began to frequently appear on entrepreneurship sharing sessions, talk shows, and university lecture stages.

Xu Liang used money to clear the way, and major media, including major websites controlled by Hongmeng, began to frequently publish various reports and videos about Christina.

For a while.

Entrepreneurial elite.

The greatest female entrepreneur of the 21st century.

Representative of French women in the new century.

All kinds of names came to mind.

Coupled with Christina's outstanding knowledge and stunning appearance, it further boosted her fame.

For a time, France and even the entire European Union knew of her existence.

“Ms. Christina, what do you think is the most valuable quality of an entrepreneur?”

"I think it's a dream..."

Looking at the TV screen, there is a beautiful woman wearing a milky white women's business attire, a ponytail, and a capable temperament.

Jean Foch smiled and said: "No wonder the famous Golden Caesar would spend so much energy to acquire Vivendi. She is indeed a very charming woman."

"What a pity."

The blond man sitting at the bottom sighed.

Glancing at him, Jean Foch warned: "Adrian, there are many beautiful women, you can go and date them.

But the one in front of you is Caesar's forbidden lover. If you do anything wrong, you will not want the share of Pacific Fund this time."

"Dear Jean, no matter how beautiful a woman is, it is not as important as money in my heart."

Adrian Copa smiled.

"It's better this way."

Looking around at everyone, Jean Foch continued.

"The people from Christina Investment Company will start the first round of negotiations with us in three days. So, we have to prepare the information of Canal+ Group in advance and come up with a reasonable offer."

"Only Canal+ Group? I thought Caesar would swallow the whole Vivendi in one gulp."

A middle-aged man with a big belly and wearing a suit said.

"Vivendi's current assets exceed 40 billion euros, and its net assets are close to 20 billion euros. In addition to goodwill, to complete the acquisition of Vivendi, at least 10 to 15 billion euros of cash flow is needed.

Jin Kaiser probably has a hard time coming up with so much money."

"Hanhua Pacific No. 2 Fund has made 18 billion US dollars in two years. With his previous accumulation, he has plenty of cash."

For a while, everyone was talking about it.

Ahem...

Jean Foch interrupted everyone and smiled.

"Everyone, Jin Kaiser wanted to avoid a one-time acquisition of Vivendi, so he acquired Vivendi's business separately. But this is also a good thing for us.

The longer we cooperate with Jin Kaiser, the more shares we can get from Hanhua's funds."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted.

They all became happy.

"Jan, you really got a good deal for everyone."

"Let us express our most sincere gratitude to the generous Mr. Xu."

Everyone looked excited, and their eyes were full of greed for money.

Except for a few exceptions, most people don't care about Vivendi's future, they just want to make more money.

Jean Foch saw it all, and was not surprised.

They were all paid workers, and the board would not give them more bonuses and salaries because of their loyalty.

With a pre-tax income of only 2-3 million euros a year, at least half of the people would leave within a few years.

Compared with the 30 million euros of fund shares that Mr. Xu had invested, even a fool would know what to choose.
