"Welcome, sir."

"Sir, welcome."

"Your arrival makes this place shine, sir..."

The skillful and handsome waiter bent over, saluted and gestured in an experienced manner, and at the same time opened the car door for the important figures who arrived for guidance.

They were wearing white dresses, elegantly and decently, passing through the crowd, like floating on the red carpet on the ground, as if they were dancing toys on the windings.

There was such a waiter in front of Yi Xiao and Alina.

He easily bypassed the slightly crowded crowd and calmly led a way for Yi Xiao and Alina... so that Yi Xiao and Alina would not feel the congestion here, and he himself was not rude at all.

Although this matter seems very simple, it actually tests the on-site reaction ability, especially those who are here now, they are all big shots... and they can't afford to offend anyone.

Yi Xiao glanced at the slightly large crowd around him. This time, there were many people coming to the party.

There were many people coming to attend the banquet near the red carpet in front of the hotel, and the cold black cars also filled the luxury hotel in the Upper Town of New York.

The banquet has not yet begun completely, but judging from the number and quality of the arrival of the crowd, the scale of this banquet does not seem to be a random gathering.

"Here, sir."

The waiter's voice came again from the front.

He leaned forward slightly, with a patterned smile on his face, and one arm led in one direction.

Yi Xiao looked up and found that he had arrived at the main entrance of the hotel. Following the direction caused by the waiter, he saw the hotel lobby that had begun to become lively.

The lights are magnificent, and the colors of the entire hall are red and gold. The combination of gold and red staggers almost occupy all the parts of the hall.

Under the lights, a rich atmosphere of luxury came to my face.

Yi Xiao didn't find it strange at all. The aesthetic style of New York in the 1970s was like this. They always made themselves stronger as nouveau riche, but they were a little different from nouveau riche. They were filled with this luxurious dark tone everywhere... There was no slightest simple style that would be popular in the next decade.

There are many people gathered in the dance floor of the hall. Men hold their female companions and reward each other with decent and false smiles. The rich food and tableware flash with a clear luster under the light, but almost no one touches them.

“Hard work.”

Yi Xiao smiled at the waiter.

There is no charity tip... There is no need to pay tips in this environment, and no one will carry things like banknotes and money with them.

This is true for the men who came, and even more so for the women.

The organizer of the banquet will naturally give these waiters generous rewards.

The waiter smiled at Yi Xiao, then retreated back and disappeared silently among the more and more visitors.

Yi Xiao glanced at him.

This guy's movements were fast. His disappearance skills had been mastered to the level of superb level, comparable to the magic of those house-raising elves. Yi Xiao even felt that even Batman's disappearance skills were not as good as this group of service personnel.

After straightening his collar, Yi Xiao took Alina next to him and walked slowly in.

Yes, after a walk around, Yi Xiao still felt like he came with Alina, not Athena, or Loki or others.

After all, the company's main business will depend on Alina in the future, and it is good for her to get in touch with some things as soon as possible.

The existence of the fate card is too shocking, even for the era when black technology was flying all over the sky decades later, let alone New York in the 1970s.

In this era of blindly believing in technology, technology can indeed explain many things... but it cannot explain everything.

At least if the existence of fate cards is not paved, most people may not be able to accept it.

So as Raven saw on TV, Yi Xiao's early advertisements were very general. Apart from the amazing and even scary special effects far beyond this era, the shocking and even scary thing, there is no complete explanation of what the Destiny Card is.

It just made an advertisement for the destiny card deeply in people's hearts, making this special noun no longer so strange in people's ears. Apart from that, nothing has been revealed.

This is even true for Alina.

She only knows that the fate card is a kind of card... but she doesn't know what it is.

According to the planning and explanation given to her by Yi Xiao, she thought it was a board game similar to Dungeons and Dragons... Of course, there was no such thing as a desktop card game as Dungeons and Dragons in this era, let alone Magic Card.

The board game of Dungeons and Dragons will appear ten years later, probably the year after reversing the future plot, in 1974.

However, at this time, the prototype of board games has already been formed and the concept of board games has also been established.

Before being poached by Yi Xiao's lawyer team, Alina was a senior manager of a company that manufactured and sold typewriters. Based on the book Yi Xiao created with his silver tongue that recorded the information of New York in this era... The best manager pointed out in the book is her.

Obviously, she is the best in this era.

In fact, as the most popular and popular company senior management of typewriters, Alina naturally looks down on any board game company, but who made Yi Xiao pay more money?

Moreover, she would promise that she could get a lot of rights, yes, that is, the so-called decentralization.

Yi Xiao is a hand-off manager. He doesn't have much energy to involve the company. The appearance of the fate card will inevitably attract countless attention. What he wants to deal with is these existences.

They... may not communicate with Yi Xiao within the rules.

Therefore, the normal operation of the company requires a sufficiently qualified talent.

Alina is the talent selected by Yi Xiao.

Yi Xiao is very purposeful, and Alina is also very clear about this... because at the beginning, Yi Xiao agreed with Alina.

Otherwise, how could she agree so simply?

As a secretary, she does the CEO's work and gives the money very well... This is exactly what she has always longed for.

Alina is not greedy for power, but is eager for justice.

Yes, as the person recommended by the books created by Yi Xiao Yinshe, even if she is not as good as the Little Chili CEO of Stark Industry... she can't just catch a person who is the heroine, but the difference is not too much.

Otherwise, it would not be recommended by books.

Even if the highest-end talents in New York are not bad, they are probably not much worse than that of the Little Chili CEO.

But she was just a senior manager of the typewriter company, and she was actually no higher than the screws on the assembly line.

Many decision-making things are not her turn either.

The reason is very simple, she is a woman.

This is the 1970s. Feminism has existed, and men and women have long been equal, but discrimination has always been there, and... it will never be equal.

Just because she is a woman, it is impossible to hold a high position.

Not everyone is as enlightened as Stark... What's more, Stark is definitely not enlightened, but the little wife who plays the domineering president.

So with Yi Xiao's financial leverage and the promise of delegating power, she decisively jumped to the so-called board game card manufacturing company in her eyes.

...Although there is no future for any board game card in her eyes, she believes in herself and there should be no problem with returning to life.

The least it will not let it decline.

This is how Alina knows about the company.

Yi Xiao did not deliberately reverse her idea that this was just a board game card, and it was indeed not yet time now.

Otherwise, what else can Yi Xiao say? Could you tell her that there is magic in this world? No, there is magic in other worlds, and that he is the most powerful wizard in the sequence. He has brought magic to this world now, and the fate card is the key to creating infinite possibilities?

Yi Xiao felt that if he said this, he might lose this capable secretary.

So, there is no need to rush to showdown. You have to prepare her mentally, and of course you can't say nothing. This banquet should be a good opportunity.

Because Yi Xiao felt that so many guys who were jealous of their funds would not have any gentle means to seize a big cake.

Holding Yi Xiao's wrist, Alina looked as usual.

Although she was just a senior management staff in the former company and did not have many opportunities to go to such occasions, she was definitely not inexperienced.

So she was not at all stage frightened, nor was she surprised.

... Even if she was indeed a little surprised at the boss who looked around, she would not show it.

As for Yi Xiao... she doesn't have much special feelings.

Alina, the secretary, doesn't say much, but she is not the kind of particularly cold-hearted type. If you have to say it, it should be considered a very serious personality, but it is not absolutely rigid and has no lack of vitality. She is considered a normal person.

Yi Xiao's mixed-race appearance has always been very handsome, but it is not as good as the ladies' embrace, but his label of having money has done this.

But for Alina, it didn't have much appeal.

Indeed, she once had a boyfriend, but now she has broken up and is not married, but not having a boyfriend does not mean that she will definitely fall in love with her own ceo... This is not a concept at all.

It feels really good to have a handsome young boss, but that's all.

Yi Xiao and Alina were brought along and soon integrated into the banquet.

Similarly, as more and more people entered the venue, the hotel lobby and the second and third floors gradually became lively, and the discussion and music started to sound, announcing that the banquet was about to begin.

No one announced the beginning or the end of the banquet. It was a banquet used to connect with each other. Everyone who came here knew what they needed to do.

Including Yi Xiao.

People kept nodding to him, and Yi Xiao also responded gently one by one... He was not so cold that he forced to ignore the rules. After all, before the data of the fate card was completely collected, he could achieve better results with the means of using Huairou, so there was no need to do it according to toughness.

That's not called being cold, that's called being despair.

Yi Xiao didn't know them, and they actually didn't know Yi Xiao, but it didn't matter. Not everyone who came to this banquet knew each other. Here, except for their initial goal, everyone else just had to have a relationship.

But Yi Xiao and Alina seem to be a little lonely, but in fact it is not the case.
To be continued...
