Chapter 295

Today's Li Feng is not an ordinary person in his previous life, but a rising upstart. Naturally, he has heard of these organizations.

It's not to say how powerful these organizations are. In fact, they are mainly a platform, a platform that can contact the four sides. After all, people are social animals, aren't they.

Both the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the hundred people's Association have heard of it, and even contacted many of them. For example, I.M. Pei, a master of architectural design, has contacted and exchanged contact numbers. It can be regarded as understanding.

Thinking about the invitation letter, Li Feng received a call from I.M. Pei and old Pei. It turned out that the invitation letter for Li Feng's 100 people was personally proposed and recommended by old Pei.

Naturally, I.M. Pei also told Li Feng the reasons for inviting him, and then said a lot about the situation of Chinese or Chinese Americans in the United States, the purpose of the 100 people's Association, and so on. I hope Li Feng can set an example for Chinese in the United States.

On the phone, Li Feng also thanked him for his recommendation and the invitation of the 100 people's Association. He said he agreed to join the 100 people's Association. Finally, he discussed the formalities. I.M. Pei said that there was a branch of the 100 people's Association in Los Angeles, and someone will come to help him handle the formalities tomorrow.

……

By talking to I.M. Pei on the phone, Li Feng also had a simple understanding of the meeting of 100 people, rather than hearsay.

The hundred people's association was once proposed by I.M. Pei and later established with the support of a large number of influential and well-known elites in the United States, including Yo Yo Ma and Yang Xuelan.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that a person is a dragon and a group of people are worms. There has been a long-standing prejudice against Chinese in the United States.

For example, when I.M. Pei was interviewed by the American media when he was successful, he found that Americans' understanding of Chinese almost remained decades or even hundreds of years ago. Even in the 1980s, American journalists asked I.M. Pei whether Chinese people were still smoking.

When Li Feng heard Pei's question on the phone, Li Feng told Pei on the phone whether Americans were used to marijuana, leading to the belief that Chinese people smoked these things, which made Pei burst into laughter.

Later, I.M. Pei said that there are many kinds of Chinese organizations in the United States, such as the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, but these organizations are too silent.

At that time, I.M. Pei had the idea of making a Chinese voice. He thought that the voice of an elite Chinese was small, but it would be 100 Chinese elites.

Then I.M. Pei contacted some influential Chinese in the United States and discussed his ideas, which was supported by many prominent figures in the Chinese circle in the United States at that time, such as Yo Yo Ma, Yang Xuelan, Tang LiuQian, Deng Zhaoxiang, etc.

……

I.M. Pei will not say. The reputation of "the last master of modern architecture" has explained everything.

Yo Yo Ma is a world-famous cellist, enjoying a reputation both in the United States and all over the world; Yang Xuelan is now GM's global vice president, which is the American GM Group. GM's influence is really all over the United States, from military, politics to economy. At the same time, his stepfather is Gu Weijun, who is known as "the first person in diplomacy of the Republic of China", and enjoys a good reputation all over the world.

Tang LiuQian is also a figure. He is a director of the Metropolitan Museum in New York. He is also a famous figure in the upper class of New York. Deng Zhaoxiang is a man of the hour and a financial expert on Wall Street.

It can be said that the starting point of the hundred people's Association is very high, and it is an elite organization. Each member alone enjoys great prestige. Today, the hundred people's Association has become one of the most influential organizations in the Chinese circle in the United States.

The invitation of the 100 people's Association is very strict. It only invites Chinese elites with great influence and popularity in the United States.

From the 40 people at the beginning of its establishment to nearly 100 people today, every year, 100 people will select Chinese American elite talents to join in the United States. Moreover, each joining talent needs the recommendation of members and can receive the invitation letter only after passing the review.

Coincidentally, several of the candidates invited by this year's 100 people will be closely related to Li Feng.

The first is Yang Zhiyuan, chairman of Yahoo. Today's Yang Zhiyuan has great influence in the United States and the world. After all, today's Yang Zhiyuan is known as one of the pioneers of the Internet.

Another is Wu Jianmin, President of Huamei bank. Now Huamei bank began to expand towards the Chinese community in the United States. With the continuous acquisition of two small banks this year and began to go out of the Chinese community, Wu Jianmin's Huamei bank naturally attracted a burst of attention in the industry.

As the leader of a bank, Wu Jianmin also attracted the attention of the 100 people's Association and was invited by the 100 people's Association this year.

……

In addition to the hundred people's Association, Li Feng also mentioned with I.M. Pei about the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. I.M. Pei said that the hundred people's Association did not conflict with the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. He also advised Li Feng to join the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. He also said that he was a member of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in New York. He said that his architectural design firm was also a member of businessmen.

At the same time, he also told Li Feng about some Chinese Chamber of Commerce, saying that it is the largest organization of Chinese in the United States. It can be said that the Chinese Chamber of Commerce has involved all aspects of the Chinese circle in the United States, from politics, economy, culture and life.

Similarly, Li Feng also knows that Chinese Chambers of Commerce have maintained contact and cooperation with Chinese Chambers of commerce all over the world. If we trace back to history, it may have been hundreds of years, and even have intersection and great influence with the early Chinese community Hongmen. After all, wealth can always contact all directions.

Through some exchanges with I.M. Pei, an architectural master, we have a further intuitive understanding of the Chinese in the United States.

Speaking of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, Li Feng only knew one thing before, that is the Chinese business newspaper. After all, Li Feng reads the Chinese business newspaper every day, which is the largest Chinese newspaper in the United States.

To tell the truth, it's also strange that Li Feng's rise is so fast that others can't react. The headquarters of the Chinese American Chamber of commerce is in Los Angeles. Before, Li Feng thought it was in New York. After all, the headquarters of those large organizations are either in Washington or New York.

As a native of Los Angeles today, Li Feng doesn't know the headquarters of the chamber of Commerce, so he can only blame Li Feng for his ignorance.

……

Next, I naturally contacted the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Los Angeles. At the same time, it also explained that I agreed to join the chamber of Commerce and become a member. I got a reply from the chamber of commerce that I would arrange people to come to the door tomorrow. Well, like the 100 people's Association, there are certain procedures.

In fact, Li Feng really doesn't pay much attention to the various so-called Chinese organizations of the United States emperor. From the perspective of Li Feng's contact after his life in the United States emperor, the Chinese and Chinese Americans of the United States emperor are also divided into upper and lower levels, and the upper level personnel often despise the lower level Chinese.

Even many Chinese communities in the United States are divided into two layers. Most of the so-called upper class people live in some Chinese communities, and a large number of Chinese communities belong to the nature of slums, which are too loose.

Moreover, Li Feng also knows that with the rise of China, a variety of Chinese and ethnic Chinese organizations around the world will continue to rise in the future, and even many are just making up numbers. Therefore, although there are many Chinese associations, they have almost no influence in the United States.

Speaking of minority communities, Li Feng can't help thinking of Jewish communities. Jewish Americans in the United States are indeed United. Li Feng has learned a lot about examples of Jewish Americans helping each other, which once made Li Feng feel at ease. No wonder Jewish Americans can occupy an important position in the United States and even the world.
