Unlike carnival parties in the United States, French parties usually have themes and mostly appear in the form of salons.

Back then, French dramatists, novelists, poets, musicians, painters, critics, philosophers and politicians held a party.

They were like-minded, drinking champagne and red wine, enjoying elegant music, talking to each other without restraint.

Later, people called this form of gathering "salons", and its origin was France, so salons were still popular in France.

Most wealthy and middle-class people are keen to host it, and so are ordinary blue-collar workers.

If you see many mechanics in the French workers' area seriously opening philosophical salons, it doesn't take a surprise. This is a normal thing...

Open the door and enter the banquet hall. The scene arrangement is similar to the famous girl dance that Han Xuan had seen on TV.

Only when he saw the Dürer watercolor work "The Young Hare" on the wall was sure that this was the banquet hall.

Men in formal clothes and ladies in evening gowns chatted with each other with wine glasses.

Today is a party held by Chirac himself, so the alcohol and food used are not too high-end.

But the incoming French president, who had been the mayor of London for three terms, had a high salary and was considered a member of the middle class, and those things were not too bad.

Han Xuan was not familiar with them to the point of drinking, and the jet lag made him feel a little uncomfortable.

So he took a glass of grape juice similar to the wine and looked for the crowd with a blue handkerchief in his chest pocket.

In addition to the three people he had met in the morning, he also saw some familiar figures among them.

For example, Ms. Abigail Johnson, who has a blue handkerchief tied on her wrist, is 34 years old this year.

Her grandfather was one of the founders of Fidelity International Investment Company, the company where executive Anthony once worked, which has assets of tens of millions of dollars.

Abigail Johnson herself is also one of the most famous securities analysts in the United States today. Han Xuan met her once at a party held by her old man.

There is also Colombian financial tycoon Louis Carlos Samiento, who holds more than 10% of Colombia's bank shares. Even if the local president sees him, he must remain in awe.

Among them, there was an old white man who was wearing a top-notch suit, but stood in the crowd and seemed a little out of place.

His name is James Simmons, he graduated from MIT, received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, and taught mathematics at MIT and Harvard University. He is a math expert.

After receiving honors from the American Mathematical Society in 1976, Simmons turned to the hedge fund industry and used mathematical models to decide trading.

In just over a decade, his medal fund has attracted billions of dollars in investment, with an annual return of more than Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway and Soros's quantum fund, which is very terrifying.

There are also a large group of resources, banks, funds and other industries that Han Xuan has seen in newspapers, and there are more than 20 people counting.

Calculate the assets they have, which can reach about 500 billion US dollars, which shocked Han Xuan.

Even though most of the money is not their own, the amount of money that can be used is really amazing.

Not far away, an old man was talking to President Chirac. The old man was dressed very strangely, but Chirac respected him very much.

Because this is a descendant of Napoleon Bonaparte, the emperor of the First French Empire, and is named Napoleon VI.

As one of the few top noble families in France today, the Bonaparte family has a unique status.

The child next to Napoleon VI who was not as old as Han Xuanda was probably the future Napoleon VII...

Han Xuan suddenly appeared in the crowd, causing a lot of sensation. Many people smiled and raised their wine glasses to signal to him to welcome his arrival.

After seeing this, President Chirac came over with a smile and said, "Look, what a handsome guest!

Han, your arrival is my honor. When will you come to France?"

"This afternoon, I heard that you were having a party and I had nothing to do tonight, so I came uninvited, hoping not to mind."

Han Xuan said politely.

Chirac is in his sixties now and looks very kind. He wishes that the more lively hell he will be, the better.

While I was puzzled by the fact that there were a lot of uninvited people, I was a little proud, thinking that I had influence and they wanted to make friends with me.

Holding Han Xuan's hand and not letting go, he continued to say in French: "No, I'm so happy that you can come."

I was wearing a blue handkerchief, is this the popular color this year?"

Han Xuan was about to speak, when Ms. Abigail Johnson came to help, clinked the glass with the old man Chirac, raised his head and drank a small sip of wine, and smiled and said, "That's right.

The new model released by Burberry, a brand under the ***hoops group, is no longer popular with white handkerchiefs. I think the blue is very beautiful."

Chirac is not very familiar with this lady, but just saw that she knew many local French wealthy people, so she should be very powerful.

After drinking the champagne in the glass, he said happily: "I can't keep up with the times, and I will put blue handkerchiefs at next party.

Sorry, you are"

It's indeed as Soros said.

Today is just a simple party. Whether Han Xuan goes to find someone else or someone else comes to find Han Xuan, he will leave after saying a few words and leave after his business card.

But it’s not that he has gained nothing, at least he has met many people today.

Sometimes these relationship networks are wealth, and now they all belong to the same underground organization, so the relationship is relatively closer.

"Han, why do I hear many people introduce themselves, and the word De is included in their names?" Isabelle asked.

There were not many things that she couldn't understand. Han Xuan replied with a smile: "Prince Kong Dai family, De Bourbon.

The Duke of Anjou, de Savoy.

The Duke of Nemore, De Fuva.

Ninety percent of France's nobles have this word in their names.

But not absolutely, in order to show that their family has a long history, some civilians will also add Viagra to their names.

The Fifth Republic of France is a republic system, and the nobles have been basically abolished. At present, these nobles refer to the descendants of the nobles who were enthroned during the French monarchy and the imperial period. There are not many people, with only about 3,000 households.

Look at that little guy, he is a nobleman, and a very famous nobleman. His ancestor's name was Napoleon."

The future Little Napoleon VII happened to see Han Xuan pointing at him, and he made a face unhappy.

"that……

Hello, please disturb, Han.

Can you talk to you?

I just started a company last year and I hope to get investment from you.”

Hearing someone talking, Han Xuan turned his head and looked at him, and couldn't help but feel happy after seeing his face clearly.

Good guy, isn't this John Paulson who became famous in one battle in the future during the credit crisis?

He replied without hesitation: "Okay, how much investment..." (To be continued.)
