MTL - America’s Road To Fame-Chapter 8 unwelcome
And Gared's family is also a real estate family, a well-known real estate group in New Jersey, America. Although the family's net assets are more than one billion US dollars, the assets they can control are also in the scale of several billion US dollars, so the two of them went to There is also a topic.
"Ivanta, we met again. The last time I saw you was many years ago." William Chen took the initiative to greet Ivanta. Ivanta's father, Troup, was a real estate developer. His father is also in the real estate industry, so when his parents were alive, he took him to a reception and met the Troup father and daughter.
At that time, William Chen was only fourteen or fifteen years old, still a teenager, and Ivanta, who was three years older than him, was already a well-known model.
"William, I remember that when I saw you, you were still a child. You are so tall now. You are really talented." Ivanta also responded enthusiastically to him.
Looking at the unbelievably handsome young man in front of him, Ivanta naturally knew who he was. Although the two of them only met twice at the reception a few years ago, they were still impressed.
At that time, although he was still young, everyone liked him very much because of his good looks, and they had never seen the bad things he did after him.
Now Ivanta watched William Chen and Paris come over together, thinking about the news reports she saw recently and the news she heard from others, but she sighed inwardly, with such a good appearance, it is a pity that she can't support it property left to him by his parents.
At this time, Ivanta glanced at Gared beside him. When he saw William Chen, he smiled and greeted him, looking very gentlemanly.
He is also a descendant of a real estate family. In Ivanta's view, Gared is completely different from William Chen. Not only is he keen on learning, but after graduating from Yale University, he came to New York University to study for a double degree in Juris Doctor and MBA.
And his business talent is also good. In addition to his studies, he invested in real estate and earned tens of millions of dollars with his own efforts. And Gared's father was sentenced to two years in prison for being involved in a lawsuit. He has now taken over the family's property with full power and is planning to develop the family's real estate business from New Jersey to New York.
After chatting with them casually, William Chen left Ivanta's side and walked elsewhere. He could feel that, including Ivanta, although these people were very enthusiastic towards him on the surface, they all had a sense of alienation, purely a polite feeling. And I saw that they had a good chat before. After Chen William and Paris came over, the atmosphere on the court was a little embarrassing.
Chen William understands that these people are well-informed people, and the bad things about his predecessors, let alone them, because of the tabloid reports, it is estimated that more than half of the people in the United States are aware of it, so now that he is here, the other party is just On the surface, he was polite, but in his heart he didn't know how to treat him. Just like when he left, he could even hear Gared ask Ivanta in a low voice, "Isn't he going bankrupt? Why is he still here?"
At that time, William Chen took a look at Paris' expression and found that she didn't have any abnormality. She probably didn't hear it. After all, it was a party, and it wasn't that quiet.
But Chen William didn't know if it was because of the effect of the [Liuwei Dihuang Pills] he had eaten before. Now his hearing is much better than before, just like when he was at home, he could hear many tiny sounds, but Tom couldn't. Noticed.
For these people's thoughts, Chen William doesn't care at this time, and he won't be angry because others' attitudes are obviously perfunctory. After all, at any time, we have to rely on strength to speak. This is the current situation of himself, no matter what he does. Performance, others will only laugh at what they should laugh at in their hearts. Only when they have the strength and the enviable wealth will those people respect him from the bottom of their hearts.
It happened that he hadn't had dinner before he came out today, and he was a little hungry now, so he asked Paris to chat with his friends first. He walked to the place where the cold food was placed in the room, picked up the plate and chose something , and then find a place where no one is in the corner, and eat slowly.
"Ivanta, look, that William took so much food, it seems that he has indeed encountered financial problems." Gared said to Ivanta in a low voice when he saw William Chen's appearance.
Ivanta looked in the direction of his line of sight, and saw William Chen sitting in the corner eating the food on the plate, although in his previous life he basically used chopsticks according to the Chinese custom, but only occasionally used a knife when eating Western food. Fork, but still feel that chopsticks are the most convenient to eat. But now the body also has muscle memory for using a knife and fork to eat, so it doesn't feel too awkward to use.
"He still owns most of the shares in 666 Fifth Avenue, but I heard from my father that because of the debt problem, the bank is watching it very closely. If the loan can't be repaid, it may be taken away. Shares." Ivanta said lightly, but she didn't have too many expressions on her face, it may be a habit formed since childhood, and she won't show too many emotions.
Gared noticed her reaction, and felt complacent in his heart. Just when Chen William came over, he saw that Ivanta showed a slightly warm attitude towards him, and he had to admit that Chen William's face had a handsome face that all men would be jealous of. Therefore, Gared, who was pursuing Ivanta, naturally became alert.
But later in the conversation, he also found that Ivanta seemed to be more polite to Chen William. From her eyes, she could still see calm, not the kind of fiery that loves admiration, so he reassured him. Not a lot. But Gared still couldn't help but quietly belittle the other party in front of her, to test and reduce Ivanta's goodwill towards Chen William.
And now this good opportunity to express himself, he naturally will not miss it, after a moment of indulgence, Gared said: "Ivanta, you know that I am determined to develop the family's business to New York, after all, this is the center of the entire America, So I'm currently looking for a suitable real estate property. From what you've said, William's 666 Building is a good target. It's located in the center of Fifth Avenue and has a great reputation. If it's suitable, I really hope to win it. it."
Hearing Gared's words, Ivanta's eyes lit up and said, "I feel great about your idea, Gared, if you can really win Building 666, it will definitely be a record price, it will be It puts you in the spotlight in New York, and even the whole of America."
The more Gared thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea. He looked at William Chen and said proudly, "In this case, I have to hope that the big star can lose a lot. Maybe you can get that building for a better price.”
Chen William didn't know that his property was being targeted by Gared. After eating, he saw Paris coming back, and the expression on his face was not very good, so he asked: "What's the matter, Paris, Who made you angry?"
"It's nothing, William." Paris walked to his side and showed a smile, but this smile, in Chen William's view, had a bit of a forced smile.
Sure enough, after a while, she still couldn't hold back, and said, "I'm so angry, I heard someone talking bad about you. And Gared, who was with Ivanta, is also annoying. I passed behind him just now. When I was around, I heard him talk about you, and there was nothing good to say anyway."
For these, William Chen can imagine, it is not surprising. After all, in this kind of Vanity Fair, when you are brilliant, everyone will respect you and praise you; and when you are down, there will be no shortage of cold words.
"Why don't we go back, William, it doesn't feel very interesting here." Paris took the initiative to say to Chen William.
The reason why William Chen came with her is mainly because his future bank-bound partner is Paris, and now is an important moment for him to invest in the stock market. The bank was forcing his loan back, so at this kind of party, come and watch her.
In addition, when William Chen came to this world, he had never attended such a gathering of children from rich families in America, so he wanted to come and experience it.
But to be honest, after it really came, it just felt like this. Of course, there may also be a reason why he was not very popular because of his former prodigal reputation. It was just like when he was sitting here by himself, and almost no one came to talk on his own initiative. Only two people from rich families came to talk to him at first sight. However, William Chen could see at a glance that the other party was also coming for his skin, hoping to develop a friendship with him.
Now that Paris proposed to leave, William Chen naturally had no objection, so after greeting the beautiful girl named Amanda, the initiator of the party, the two walked out of the villa.
"Paris." After the two got into the car, William Chen started the car and asked casually, "You can see that my situation is very bad now, those people are mostly avoiding me, why are you still friends with me? Woolen cloth?"
"Because I believe in you, William, as long as you can cheer yourself up, you will be able to surprise others. And I don't care how much wealth you have, because I can make money myself."
I have to say that Paris's words touched William Chen a little. Maybe at this time, he can still have expectations for William Chen. He doesn't know about the Drey family. He only knows about Uncle Tom and Paris is up.
At this time, Paris did not experience the bad thing of being backstabbed by her ex-boyfriend and released her private video tapes in her previous life. She did not degenerate in her love life, and her mind was relatively simple.
And her talent in business is really good. Now, as far as William Chen knows, Paris has licensed her name to those fashion brands, such as perfumes, cosmetics and clothing. Just these, can bring her seven years a year. With an income of 8 million US dollars, not to mention that she is an actress and also invests in movies. In these respects, what she has done is comparable to Chen William's predecessor, not even a little bit better.
It was like in William Chen's previous life, because Paris' endless negative news even affected the reputation of the Hilton family. Her grandfather, the helm of the Hilton family, in a fit of rage, announced that he would donate 97% of the assets in his name to charity after his death, so that Paris would not get much inheritance in the end, but she relied on her own fame and management. Ability, and finally pushed his worth to 3 billion US dollars, it can be said that his personal ability is still very strong.
