I Have A Super USB Drive
Two hundred and forty-three - high party
It wasn't until they were welcomed into the resplendent ball that Anthony and Jennifer were brought back to their senses by the magnificent scenery of the upper class.
Feeling everything that happened before, the two of them just felt like falling into a dream.
Although the salary at Heiguang Technology is not low, there is still a big gap between them and the real rich. It is also the first time for the two of them to see such a top-level dinner party.
"By the way, Mr. Clifford." After the middle-aged man left, Jennifer asked in a low voice, "Is that the host of the dance?"
"Yes, his name is Gross, you can just call him Mr. Gross."
Clifford nodded and saw someone walking towards him, so he said to the two, "You two go around first, and after I greet these old friends, we can talk about the previous things in detail. "
"Don't worry about us, you are easy."
Anthony and Jennifer nodded quickly, turned and walked away.
There is no dress code for this party, such as evening gowns, so the work clothes of the two can also blend into the atmosphere here, and it doesn't look too abrupt.
After walking to a relatively quiet corner, Jennifer showed envy in his eyes, "Is this the life of the upper class? Why have I never seen Mr. Chen do this before?"
"Mr. Chen is a new wealthy family after all, and his background and culture are definitely not as good as here. These are old wealthy families that have been around for decades or even hundreds of years."
Anthony sighed, "And after all, Mr. Chen is from Central Continent, and the culture is completely different. As far as I know, there is indeed no custom of holding dances and parties in Central Continent."
"What if there is a competition for influence?"
Jennifer asked in a low voice, "Can these giants compare to Mr. Chen?"
"The influence of an ordinary wealthy family is definitely not comparable to that of Mr. Chen."
Anthony affirmed, "Although Mr. Chen is a newly promoted wealthy family, he has completed capital accumulation early on, which is even enough to challenge the entire convalescent industry. No matter how powerful an ordinary wealthy family is, how can they have this kind of ability?"
"But it's hard to say about the top giants. After all, there are hundreds of years of foundation. If Black Light Technology and those top giants face off, I'm afraid the outcome will be unpredictable. My opinion is 50-50..."
"Are you thinking too highly of Mr. Chen?"
Jennifer was a little surprised, "Although I admit that Mr. Chen is very great, these top family and wealthy families standing behind the governments of North America and Europe can influence government decision-making."
"That's true, but don't forget that there are more than a dozen wealthy families and financial groups standing behind Mr. Chen." Anthony said, "And, do you think the company is as simple as it seems?"
"You mean..." Jennifer asked in surprise.
"I've worked in Blackwatch Company for so long, I believe you have noticed it too?"
Anthony lowered his voice, "For example, arms smuggling is already a well-known secret, and the company also has hundreds of heavily armed security departments. The 'Black Knight' rapid response force under the La Branch Company, this force even has armored vehicles and armed helicopters..."
"After you say that, our company has grown up immediately."
Jennifer nodded.
Get excited.
While the two were chatting while holding champagne, the middle-aged man at the door suddenly walked up the spiral staircase, stood on the steps and clapped his hands towards everyone.
Immediately, the sound in the hall was turned off, and everyone at the dinner party looked over at the same time.
Anthony and Jennifer also stopped talking.
"ladies and gentlemen."
The middle-aged man, known as Gross, appeared to be wearing foundation, pale and cheekboned in the light of the crystal chandelier, like a medieval vampire.
He said with a smile on his face, "The reason why I invite you this time is not only to provide you with a place for entertainment, but also because I want to show you a very important thing. Now please stand Ladies and gentlemen at the landing step back."
Following Gross' words, several men and women retreated subconsciously, leaving an open space in front of the stairs.
"I believe everyone knows that besides being an entrepreneur, I am also a collector, and I like to collect some precious artifacts. This time, my construction team discovered it in a gold mine..."
Following Gross' words, the three jewelry display stands slowly rose from the ground. Seeing this scene, the crowd let out an exclamation. Obviously, they didn't expect that there was a universe in front of the stairs.
"Go, have a look."
Seeing this, Anthony and Jennifer also stepped forward curiously, standing in the crowd and looking at the rising jewelry stand.
After all, the things that Gross is optimistic about must be some valuable gadgets. Even if you can't get them, it's good to have more knowledge.
These jewelry display stands are almost the same as those in museums. The upper layer is blocked by transparent glass containers to prevent people from getting their hands on them unconsciously. Moreover, these glasses have been specially treated and can be regarded as a kind of anti-theft glass. The gun may not be able to penetrate.
As the display stands continued to rise, everyone finally saw the things inside the display stands. Inside the three display stands, there were actually three stone statues!
Anthony looked, and saw that these three statues were all carved from stone. It seemed that it had been through for a long time, and the lines were a little blurred. However, the three statues seemed to be in a series, like three human heads, with faces. The expression is extremely weird.
The eyes of the first statue are closed, but the ears are pointed and long, even beyond the head, like a person with rabbit ears.
As for the second statue, the eyes are open, but it has a pair of eye sockets, and the eye sockets are sunken. Under the light of the ball, those eye sockets are as black as an abyss.
As for the third statue, both the ears and the eyes are normal, but the mouth is extremely wide open, elongating the entire face by more than a third, and the inside of the mouth is also pitch black, as if it can swallow anyone Sight.
When seeing these three statues, Anthony's first impression was only two words: weird.
The simple lines and weird shape, I don't know if it is an illusion, but the moment I saw these three statues, the lights of the entire venue seemed to be dimmed.
"Oh God, look at the quaint lines on it, look at the traces of time on it, I can't believe it..."
After the crowd experienced a brief silence, some people suddenly became amazed. After all, Gross took it out, so the authenticity was not questioned by everyone.
"Mr. Gross, is this a cultural relic from the Mayan period?"
"I think it should be from the ancient Greek period!"
"It doesn't look like the style of ancient Greece. In my opinion, it should be a statue of Sumerian civilization..."
Everyone has different opinions, but in fact, most of them are to give Gross a face, so as not to be cold.
"What an ugly statue..."
Jennifer on the side whispered, "Anthony, do you know the style of this period?"
"I don't recognize it. There are so many experts here, there must be someone who can recognize it." Anthony shook his head.
