Those attending the dinner today were famous figures in the Northeast financial industry, including Li Yuzhen, former president of Dashang Bank and currently dean of Northeast Institute of Finance and Economics.--./Fu Xiaotian, currently president of the Central Bank of Northeast Autonomous Region, Nie Xiong, currently president of Dashang Bank, Ding Xiaotian, president of Dashang Bank Shanghai Branch, Xi Zhengfu, comprador of Shanghai HSBC Bank, and many financial-related industries in the Northeast and Qing Dynasties, including Shanxi Piaohao's shopkeeper in the Northeast Autonomous Region, and some newly established medium-sized commercial banks. In addition to people from the financial industry, there were also senior officials of the autonomous region government, including Finance Minister Jin Xiujun, Industry Minister Yu Miao, Energy Minister Chen Baiyu, etc.

Alphons and Gustav were a little flattered for such a warm hospitality in Ningdao. Although the Rothschild family is called the Caucasian royal family in Europe, the span of the emerging land in Northeast China is far away, so they probably have no fame. This visit to Ningdao was also conducted in the name of BNP Paribas, but the other party's understanding of his family was far beyond Alphons and Gustav's expectations, which also made the two have a certain favorable impression of the Northeast, and there was a hint of awe. Obviously, the intelligence capabilities of the Northeast are no longer limited to their own acre of land. Although the Northeast has no reason to deal with the Rothschild family far away in Europe, this intelligence capability itself is very... creepy!

Before Wang Yi appeared, Li Yuzhen was accompanied by Alphons and Gustav, and people around him gathered together in groups to discuss their respective topics. The female guests fell in a fixed corner, many of whom were foreign faces, and these were Alphons and Gustav’s family. These European ladies and ladies curiously looked and commented on everything at today’s dinner, from decoration to dishes, to the costumes of bands and guests, and even the perfume smell in the bathroom, all of them were their interest. Although they covered their lower half of their faces with small fans, they were still the focus of the whole dinner. Of course, what they were most interested in was the owner of Ningdao, the young talent who had a lot of legends in the European continent and the women who had not yet appeared behind him.

When the music stopped, the door of the venue opened. Under the leadership of the butler Fran, Chen Yazhi took Wang Yi's arm, followed Tong Qianjia and four girls in behind. Wang Yiyi was wearing a black dress, a white shirt, a black bow tie, and the whole set of clothes were specially customized. Although he was not handsome, his height of 183 was definitely outstanding in this era. In addition, his strong figure was trained with his subordinates and his personal guards, with a pure manly masculinity.

However, the focus of the audience is destined not to appear on him, because the women represented by Chen Yazhi are obviously particularly bright and radiant under the lights of the venue. They do not wear European-style big tulip skirts, but each of them is a hand-embroidered cheongsam with a pleasing color and tailored tailoring. The modern tailoring patterns provided by Wang Yi outline the concave and convex figures of several women are particularly charming, and matched with various gems and jewelry, as well as other accessories, everything can only be described as perfect.

However, when the first day of the New Year appeared, the most admired woman in the venue also lost her glory at this time. The men all cast admiration and stunning eyes, while the other poor women could only leave envy, love, jealousy and hatred. Wang Yi, who came from later generations, certainly knew how to make his women unique, and was full of beauty. In terms of fashion and personality, this relatively closed and rigid era cannot be compared with later generations.

After everyone took their seats, Wang Yi, the owner of Ningdao, was the first to speak.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome you to Ning Island and make your island prosperous! I, Wang Yi, have no extravagance today, I just hope you can come here and return with all your fun. But before today's dinner, let us welcome friends from Paris, France, Mr. Alphons and Mr. Gustav!"

Alphons and Gustav stood up from their seats and bowed to the surroundings amid everyone's applause, which looked very graceful.

"Thank you Mr. Wang Yi for your warm hospitality and your kindness that touched us, the guests from afar, very much. I like the Northeast Autonomous Region. May God bless you, thank you, everyone who is hospitality."

The highlight of today's dinner was not about eating, but at the dance party held later, during this period, people could chat with each other freely, and the atmosphere was very warm. The women from the Rothschild family from France chatted with Shen Yazhi and some women. Fortunately, in Ningdao's family education, French was also a project that needed to be learned. Wang Yi took Alphons and Gustav to the rooftop outside the house, accompanied by several heavyweights in the Northeast financial industry, including Li Yuzhen.

"Mr. Wang Yi, please forgive me for taking the blame. Your youth is really surprising." Alfons smiled.

Wang Yiyi smiled and said, "The achievements of the Northeast today are not the result of my efforts alone. Without the support of my colleagues and the people, I am alone and I cannot reach this day." Wang Yi changed his tone at this time and then said, "To put it bluntly, my relationship with your country is not harmonious, but Mr. Alphons and Mr. Gustav should rest assured that BNP Paribas is BNP Paribas, and your government is your government, so we will not discuss it together."

When talking about the tension between France and the Northeast Autonomous Region, this really made Alphons and Gustav a little embarrassed. He also understood Wang Yi’s intention, that is, we meet today is a private matter, and it is unnecessary to speak for the French government. Speaking of which, France is also an important country in the world, but Wang Yi doesn’t care. If the relationship between the two sides is eased, some territory will be difficult to start in the Northeast. Not to mention the distance, not long ago, the Northeast African Navy led by Yan Fu confronted a French navy on the coast of Madagascar. Later, after the Northeast Viper airship flew to this sea area, the French ship left in shame.

The French have never given up on Madagascar's colony, but the two sides signed a special partnership agreement during the visit of the Northeast during the Madagascar Prime Minister's visit to the Northeast. Madagascar opened all territories to the Northeast for commercial trade, and provided tariff preferential treatment. The Northeast provided industrial assistance to Madagascar, and handed over coastal defense to the Northeast Navy. In addition, it also needed to help the Madagascar government train army forces.

In simple terms, Madagascar turned itself into a colony of the Northeast Autonomous Region in a non-public manner. Of course, this was also a helpless choice. France has not stopped invading Madagascar in recent years and has landed in many places to fight. Although the Madagascar government also turned to Britain for help during this period, considering the current situation in Europe and the UK's own plans in Cape Town and Cairo in Africa, the UK is not willing to break up with France on the issue of Madagascar.

The timely help from Northeast China also excited the Madagascar government like a long drought. More importantly, the Northeast is unique in treating black people, and its methods are relatively gentle.
