v3 Chapter 920： 4 consortiums behind the scenes

Although tonight's dance party at the Washington Convention Center officially started at seven o'clock in the evening, Xia Yu knew very well that tonight's party was actually two, or two levels.

The largest conference hall in the Washington Convention Center can hold 20,000 to 30,000 people. Although the ball held in this conference hall is one of the three official dances to celebrate the inauguration of the president, it is widely oriented and the threshold for participation is not low. , But it is not the highest, mainly for middle and high-level forces supporting Ronald Reagan.

According to the past practice, new presidents usually come to this ball to show up for a few minutes. Yomo leads a dance, and then disappears after a few words, led by other senior officials in the White House or the Republican Party.

Xia Yu certainly didn't come to this kind of dance party.

He participated in the heavyweight ball held in the internal medium-sized conference room. Those who can get the invitation letter to the ball are almost the people who stand at the pinnacle of the United States, such as the super sponsor behind Ronald Reagan, or the major super The person in charge of the group.

In the face of these people, even Ronald Reagan must be accompanied by heart. He will be here for most of the night.

Other people with political ambitions also want to squeeze into this ball. If they can establish relationships with or further exchanges with a few super funders and consortium owners, then they will be able to have political ambitions in the future. The more help, the more likely to succeed.

When Xia Yu's car drove outside the Washington Convention Center, he saw a long line coming out from the door, and the ball hadn't all entered yet.

Xia Yu’s car did not stop. In the enviable eyes of the people in the line, he drove to another checkpoint. Facing the security personnel intercepting at the intersection, Xia Yu rolled down the car window and handed out an invitation. Yu bowed slightly, then respectfully opened the bayonet to let Xia Yu's car enter through the special passage.

Only guests like Xia Yu are eligible to park in the garage of the Washington Convention Center.

After verifying the invitation letter to the security personnel at the entrance of the Washington Convention Center, Xia Yu walked in.

Along the VIP passage, Xia Yu came to the medium-sized conference room on the inner floor.

As soon as he entered, he immediately noticed that some people were observing him obscurely or calmly.

Xia Yu didn't change her face, walked in without any haste, and scanned the meeting room quickly.

It’s either dancing or talking, but the purpose is the same. Take this opportunity to expand your network.

Most of the people holding red wine glasses and talking are middle-aged and elderly people. There are not many young people dancing, but it is certain that they are all outstanding descendants of large families. Their parents will bring them together to expand their contacts through this platform. See you world.

It's just that these people are either white or black, and whites make up the vast majority.

In addition, Xia Yu has only one with black hair and yellow skin!

It's not that no one recognizes Xia Yu, but it's not just because of the joke mentality or the resistance mentality. In short, no one other than the waiter took the initiative to come forward to talk to Xia Yu.

At this moment, Ronald Reagan, who was talking with others, felt strange. After seeing Xia Yu, he immediately confessed to the person beside him, and then held his wife with a warm smile on his face. Many people were surprised. In his eyes, he walked quickly towards Xia Yu.

"Mr. Xia, good evening, welcome to you!"

"Good evening, Mr. President!"

"Ms. Nancy, congratulations on becoming the first lady!"

Xia Yu said with a smile.

"Thank you!"

Nancy Davis Reagan smiled kindly and said.

Ronald Reagan hugged Xia Yu and then let go. This kind of etiquette used to express intimacy between acquaintances and friends was made on this occasion. Many people who were following were a little surprised. Adjusting Xia Yu's position in his mind, he secretly guessed what the relationship between this Asian and Ronald Reagan was.

"Mr. Xia, didn't you bring a female companion?"

Ronald Reagan asked with some confusion.

Generally speaking, when attending a dance party on a formal occasion, one will bring a female companion. There is no limit to wife, relatives or friends, and it is rare to come alone.

Of course, very few does not mean there is no. As the host of the dance party, at this time, you need to avoid as much as possible from the guests who come alone.

Xia Yu smiled and said, "Yes, I have very few female friends in the United States. They came in a hurry, so I came here alone, don't you mind?"

Ronald Reagan shook his head and smiled: "Of course I don't mind."

After finishing, he turned his head and said to his wife Nancy Davis: "My dear, there is a young lady coming with my parents tonight. To avoid the loneliness of our closest friend, you have to pay attention."

Nancy Davis Reagan nodded naturally, blinked at Xia Yu and said, "Mr. Xia, I will introduce you later."

Faced with this kind of kindness, Xia Yu could only shook his head dumbfoundingly, shrugged and said, "Well, I don't think I can refuse your kindness."

"Hahaha..."

Ronald Reagan chuckled softly.

"Mr. Xia, please come with us. I will introduce some friends to you."

After that, Ronald Reagan took his wife and walked side by side with Xia Yu into the crowd.

"I would like to introduce to everyone, this is my friend, Mr. Xia Yuxia."

"Good evening, Mr. Xia!"

"Nice to meet you!"

……

Looking at a few people around, Xia Yu immediately took out his own business cards printed with the chairman of Polaris Capital and sent them to everyone around him. Others handed their business cards to Xia Yu with the same attitude and introduced themselves.

In the process of receiving the business card, Xia Yu quickly remembered their names, and then showed strong communicative skills, long-sleeved dancing, chatting and laughing with everyone, and narrowing the distance with others without making a sound.

It's just that Xia Yu ignores other people's temptations and topic traps lightly, which will neither make people embarrassed nor get information from others.

He knew very well that after seeing Ronald Reagan treating him so solemnly, many people wanted to know his true details and his relationship with Ronald Reagan.

But he has no obligation to satisfy their curiosity.

Those who should know will naturally know, such as David Rockefeller among the big guys.

Those who don't have the ability to know, then there is no need to know.

At this moment, Xia Yu noticed some commotion in the conference room and quickly glanced around and found that most people were looking at the few people who came in at the door. Ronald Reagan and his wife, who were socializing in other places, also Several other guests quickly went out to greet them.

is David Rockefeller!

When he saw the face of the man in the middle, Xia Yu immediately recognized it. He thought that David Rockefeller hadn't arrived yet, but he didn't expect that he would arrive right after he finished his words.

It can be said that as David Rockefeller walked in, the heaviest figure of the ball was here!

The boss behind the Republican Party, the top figure of the American pyramid!

As for the people next to him, Xia Yu also recognized his youngest son Richard Rockefeller and his wife.

The arrival of such a heavyweight person can be said to have attracted the attention of everyone in the ball. Almost everyone wants to get in there, especially those who are determined to enter politics.

Of course, if anyone in this dance party doesn't want to join in, it can only be Xia Yu.

Xia Yu was hidden in the crowd, watching the various forms of sentient beings calmly.

David Rockefeller was surrounded by people. After asking Ronald Reagan a few words, he was rushed into the center of the ball, so he did not see Xia Yu.

After David Rockefeller arrived, half a minute later, two small groups of people came in successively, which also attracted huge attention. Ronald Reagan accompanied David Rockefeller, so George Herbert Walker Bush The vice president took on the job of welcoming heavy guests.

The Mellon family is currently at the helm, Richard King Mellon and several younger generations.

Ramot DuPont Copeland, the fifth-generation head of the DuPont family, and his eldest son Roy DuPont and his wife.

All of a sudden, the leaders of the four traditional forces behind the Republican Party suddenly came to three.

As for another representative of the Texas consortium behind the Republican Party, he has already come before, there are two people.

One of them is George Herbert Walker Bush, the head of the Bush family Of course, although the Bush family is one of the core families in the Texas consortium, they joined later Yes, the status within the consortium is relatively low, but after all, the Bush family’s achievements in the political field are the most prominent among the Texas consortium. Of course, the position is even more special. It can use the entire Texas consortium’s political sphere. Influence.

As for another person who can truly represent the Texas consortium, he is the head of the McKison family, the strongest of the five founding families-Cody Moore McKison.

It's just that the McKison family is not like the Rockefeller family, the Mellon family, and the DuPont family as the real power holders of the consortium, so the strength and status of the McKison family are much worse than these three.

But on this occasion, the McKison family came on behalf of the Texas consortium, and it’s no problem to stand with Richard King Mellon, Ramot Dupont Copeland and David Rockefeller. .

These four people, plus President Ronald Reagan, Vice President George Herbert Walker Bush, and Republican Party leader Benjamin Carr, a total of seven people.

After the seven gathered in the center of the ball, they instantly became the focus of the ball.

At this time, everyone in the party knew that the heavyweights who should come are here, and those who enter later are no longer worth paying attention to.

The atmosphere of the dance party tonight is rapidly heating up, quickly approaching the climax.
