"Hello, excuse me, Mr. Li. Could you give me a chance to interview with CCTV?" While Li Feng and Adams were chatting, a clear voice came from one side.
"Boss, this is the reporter of China Central Television in New York. I can promise someone to give an interview, and then I'll give it to you." Adams explained to Li Feng around, which immediately made Li Feng depressed. He thought, you are cutting first and then playing.
Looking around, it was a young Chinese beauty standing aside with a microphone in her hand. However, the familiar "CCTV" logo in her memory still let Li Feng understand the identity of others.
Unfortunately, Li Feng doesn't know others. After all, for those resident journalists, ordinary people don't know. If they host the Spring Festival Gala, Li Feng may know them.
There's another one with a camera on his shoulder, but the camera hasn't been turned on at this time. Obviously, I know that the camera still needs to be approved by others.
"Hello, of course. Why not? It's not gentlemanly to refuse beautiful women." Li Feng first stared at Adams angrily, then turned to the CCTV reporter and smiled back in familiar Mandarin.
......
"My God, Mr. Li, your Mandarin is really standard." Li Na was surprised when she heard Li Feng's indistinguishable Mandarin.
"Oh, I know that those hosts in China need to take a Putonghua test. I'm just an ordinary person." Listening to the reporter's words, Li Feng replied with rare humility.
"Hello, sir. My name is Li Na. I'm a special reporter of China Central Television in New York. I'm glad to meet you. At the same time, I'm honored to interview you at this moment, but I know that you haven't been interviewed by TV media so far."
"Thank you. In fact, I'm still a little younger. I don't want to face the media for the time being. It may be better in a few years. At the same time, taking the opportunity of your TV station, according to the Chinese tradition, I'm here to pay a new year's call to the Chinese people. I wish you a happy new year. " At this time, Li Feng smiled back to the camera.
"Oh, on behalf of myself, I would like to thank you for your congratulations." Li Na immediately replied with a smile and exclaimed in her heart.
"Yes, but according to the Chinese tradition, do you want to give me a red envelope? There is a saying called 'congratulations on getting rich and bring the red envelope'" Li Feng suddenly asked jokingly.
Well, listening to Li Feng's jokes, Li Na almost stood awkwardly on the spot.
......
"OK, just kidding."
"Well, Mr. Li is indeed huaxiatong, but I also want to ask you here. It is said that you proposed the New Year celebration of the Empire State building. What are your considerations?"
"Oh, actually, I don't think much. People familiar with me may know that I am half Chinese and my mother is Chinese. Although I have never seen Chinese, I have a natural sense of closeness to Chinese.
Besides, I now live with my grandparents. The two old people have deep feelings for China. Before the lunar new year, they prepared for the new year early. At that time, I thought, can I do something for the two old people and even Chinese in the United States.
Just at the time of the new year, the Empire State building has just completed its acquisition. As the owner of the new Empire State Building, I also hope to have a new start.
Since the Empire State building is so famous in the United States and all over the world, why not hold a new year's party on the eve of the Chinese traditional New Year's Eve? I even want this event to become an annual American prosperity and keep it going. I hope this annual event can become a witness to the friendship between China and the United States. This is my original intention. "
Well, then naturally, it was a good talk. He ended the interview in a friendly atmosphere. What Li Feng didn't know was that with his interview broadcast on CCTV, his reputation began to spread in China.
......
After all, in 1996, at this time, the whole of China was moving towards economic construction as the center. A 16-year-old Chinese orphan started a large group company from scratch in a year. He was worth billions of dollars. In Chinese currency, that was tens of billions. For the Chinese people now, that was an astronomical number.
In the words of later generations, Li Feng has won the first batch of fans in China. Li Feng doesn't know that he has become "other people's children" in the mouth of many Chinese parents.
Of course, Li Feng thought that the original intention of celebrating the new year of the Empire State building was not so tall as he said.
In fact, I thought of the idea that the managers of the Empire State building held in previous generations to cater to Chinese and Chinese. In fact, it is very good. Why don't I learn from it, and accumulate some foundation and reputation for entering the Chinese market in the future.
Naturally, when you make money by investing in yourself, you are also adding bricks and tiles to socialism. It is the so-called "allowing a small number of people to get rich first". Then you should also get together and become one of the few people.
For these few people, Li Feng was envious in his previous life. If he didn't go to China to be this "minority person" in this life, his life would be really unsatisfactory.
......
"Boss, it's over. It seems that the interview results are pretty good. Let me personally lead you to meet the luxury guests today." Just after finishing the interview, Adams came out of nowhere and joked with Li Feng.
"Adam, I don't think we've trained well for a long time. When this is over, we'll find a boxing ring and exercise well."
"Ah... Boss, I have a big stomach now. Please forgive me. I heard that Bob is very strong now. You'd better go back to Los Angeles to find Bob. He should be able to meet your needs."
Adams refused directly at this time, and shamelessly betrayed his good friend Bob.
"Well, you said you would take me to identify people in person. You're not leaving yet."
"OK, I'll come right away."
They walked towards the crowd at the meeting, laughing and joking.
......
"Hello, Mayor Rudy, what are you talking about? Do you mind if we listen." Adams walked into a group of people and said to a middle-aged man in his 40s and 50s who had begun to vent.
"Hi, Mr. Adams, your event is held very well. I like it very much. Wow, isn't this your boss? Hello, Mr. Li. Nice to meet you. I'm Rudy Giuliani. "
After listening to the dialogue between the two, Li Feng knew that this was the incumbent mayor of New York. Therefore, he chatted with people politely. I have to say that these politicians were really eloquent and became familiar in a short time.
"Boss, this is Mr. Mei Ping, Consul General of China in New York. This is the famous architect Mr. Leon Pei. This is Ms. Yang Xuelan of Ge. This is Mr. Deng Zhaoxiang of the Asian Financial Association. This is Mr. John Fu. He used to be the general supervisor and major general of the military Justice Department of the army. Now he is the vice president of McDonnell Douglas Aircraft Company." Adams then helped Li Feng introduce the crowd around him.
Then Li Feng greeted everyone, and an introduction was inevitable. I have to say that Li Feng was really ignorant. Among these people, Li Feng had never heard of it in his previous life except Leon Bei after introducing Chinese.
