Chapter 718 Full Moon Banquet
Chapter 213 Full Moon Banquet
On June 20th, her daughter will be full moon. In her hometown, everyone attaches great importance to full moon. Even though she is in Silicon Valley now, Feng Yiping does not want her daughter to be wronged.
Therefore, Feng Yiping made the decision and spent a lot of money to hire a professional caterer to hold their second party since they moved in.
The related facilities on the tennis court have been demolished, and together with the front yard, it is used as a banquet venue. Since the early morning, the banquet company has been building awnings, placing tables and chairs, and decorating the venue with various flowers.
By the time the family of three had finished breakfast, the venue had been set up. Not to mention, it was really similar to a scene in a Hollywood movie.
The daughter seems to like this kind of excitement, sitting in the stroller, leaning forward, looking at the flowers and the busy staff with bright eyes, Huang Jingping is also very satisfied, women, in their bones, will not refuse such things .
"Yiping, which band are you talking about?"
"I don't know if Jobs is a joke, but one thing is for sure, it must be a good band, maybe it will be a well-known singer."
This can be said to be the last event he held before returning to China - of course, he has not held a few times, so for today's party, he invited all his partners at work, as well as several professors in the school, and Some other people he cares about, such as Comrade Xiao Ao.
Except for Jobs who was still on a business trip and couldn't come back today, everyone else readily accepted the invitation and said they would definitely attend. In order to express his apology, Jobs, who was absent, said on the phone that he would provide a band for today's party.
Now the record companies are hurrying to finalize the cooperation agreement with Apple. Since it is the band provided by Jobs now, the grade will definitely not be low. As long as Jobs thinks, it is not a problem to let those big names come.
In short, this must be the busiest day since they moved into their home in Silicon Valley.
Although the things that need to be taken care of at the party, including the menu and guest seats, have already been arranged, but Huang Jingping's task is also very heavy now. To attend such a formal occasion, she naturally needs to take care of it. Now, she has to do her hair.
"Little princess, let's go back to the room and sleep, okay? You have to be good at noon," Feng Yiping carried her daughter and walked towards the house, lest she see Huang Jingping driving out. Visit and be sure to sleep well now.
"Dad really envies your ability to sleep as long as you say you can sleep." The little guy was still obedient, and after being rocked in the cradle for a while, he sucked his finger and fell asleep. "Hey, what is this?" Looking downstairs , Feng Yiping muttered in a low voice, at the entrance, a truck was driving in.
There was more than one truck, followed by two large SUVs. People from both vehicles negotiated with the people from the banquet company. Is this the band?
Sure enough, it's a band.
Seeing Feng Yiping coming down, a man greeted him with a smile, "You must be Mr. Feng, I am Ken Krongard from Alista Records, entrusted by Mr. Jobs, our singer will be the guest singer at today's party,"
"Thank you Mr. Krongard. If you need anything, please let me know." Feng Yiping shook his hand politely, and then he was a little stunned.
Several staff members of the band walked over accompanied by a blond young girl, whom Feng Yiping at least knew.
"Let me introduce, Mr. Feng, this is our company's signed singer Avril Lavigne, on the 4th, she just released her first album "LETGO","
Inadvertently, I came into close contact with a celebrity again.
"Hello, Mr. Feng," at this time, Avril Lavigne had just debuted and was a little young. Although she was still a little cold and didn't have the arrogance and aura of becoming famous, she was better than her youth. She looked more familiar than Feng Yiping. The image of her is more refreshing and eye-catching, especially those blue eyes, which are really attractive-except that the real person is not too tall, and the visual estimation does not exceed 1.6 meters.
"Hi Avril," said Feng Yiping, now that he had passed the stage where he just wanted to take a photo or sign an autograph when he saw a celebrity, "If you need to rest, you can go to the guest room,"
The expression is crooked, he knows that such a professional singer needs to have his own space before the performance.
"Thank you!" Avril looked at Feng Yiping a few times. This Chinese young man seems to be very different from the ones he met before?
In fact, Feng Yiping just concealed it better, he wanted to let himself behave in line with his current identity.
He was also a little excited. Although he hadn't listened to Avril Lavigne's song completely, he had seen a lot of Avril Lavigne's photos. A real person is better than a photo.
Huang Jingping, who rushed home after finishing her hair, was very excited when she saw that the musical instruments had been placed on the stage, "Yiping, who is here?"
"A young girl who just made her debut that we are not familiar with. Do you want to see her? It's in the guest room," Feng Yiping said casually.
"Can you?" Huang Jingping is not as calm as Feng Yiping. This is her first contact with an American singer.
"Our home, our party, what's wrong?"
"Then I'll go now,"
After a while, she happily came back with an album, "That little girl is so beautiful,"
Please, you're only a few years older than her, okay, "No, I don't think so," Feng Yiping is so natural to say something like this now.

Page and Brin came earlier, after Mike and Buchanan. However, seeing Page's behavior, Feng Yiping knew that there must be something wrong.
Sure enough, Page packed a few macarons, held a glass of local California wine, and pushed Feng Yiping into the study in a familiar way, "Feng, you rarely go to the company these days, about the last time I was in the hospital I have discussed a lot with Brin, but there is no clear goal for the time being, what good ideas do you have?"
"Of course this is a very good direction, and it is worth our efforts." Feng Yiping looked downstairs. Some people were present. Out of politeness, he should go down to greet him. "My opinion is, can we not consider those High-tech medical problems, but work hard on common common diseases, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. These diseases cover a large number of people. Whether it is in prevention or treatment, once a breakthrough is made, it will benefit immediately a large number of people,"
This is really his own idea. He knew that Google was involved in medical treatment later, but he didn't understand what it did.
Page's original idea was also to pay attention to those high-tech medical problems. Genius, what I believe in is that I know that there are tigers in the mountains, and I prefer to go to the mountains. Otherwise, how can I be a genius?
But listening to what Feng Yiping said, hey, it seems to make sense.
At least he can't come up with a timetable for overcoming those difficult problems, and the research on these common diseases is much more certain.
Moreover, these common diseases cover the most people. Isn't what he pursues just to benefit most people?
"Come on, let me introduce someone to you." Downstairs, Comrade Xiao Aohei took Michelle's hand and arrived together with an executive from NVTEQ.
"Who, do I need to know?"
"It is necessary," Feng Yiping pushed Page, "If possible, Brin, I hope you two can support him. I think this is a very thoughtful politician."
"Oh, who?" Brin is more sensitive than Page in these aspects.
"A senator from the Illinois state legislature," Feng Yiping said with a smile.
"State senator?" Or another state, and Breen expressed little interest.
“He is planning to run for the U.S. Senate, and I am very optimistic about him,” Feng Yiping said.
That's right, who would have thought that five or six years later, this guy would ascend to the sky and enter the White House?
"Hello Barack, welcome, Michelle, is the journey going well?" Feng Yiping took Huang Jingping's hand to welcome the future first family.
"Congratulations," Michelle handed a beautifully packaged box to Huang Jingping, "Where is the baby?"
"Thank you for the gift. She is still sleeping. This is the first time you have come to my house. I will show you around," Huang Jingping saw Feng Yiping and the others had something to talk about, and invited Michelle home.
"Barack, these two are the founders of Google, Page and Brin," Feng Yiping introduced Comrade O'Hai.
*****The reason why he is glad to come here today is because he understands that the amount of funds raised is a key factor in order to run for a higher-level public office. In 2000, he failed to run for the Federal House of Representatives. Part of the reason is because of insufficient funds.
And Silicon Valley is famous for having a lot of rich people.
"Very happy to meet all of you,"
"This is Mr. Jobs' wife, Ms. Laurene,"
*****As soon as I heard, yo, rich man, I was very enthusiastic immediately.
"This is Michael Moretz, a partner at Sequoia,"
"This is Alan Kooning, president of ACP, which specializes in electric vehicle research,"
"This is Buchanan and Mike, they are the heads of Gain Capital in the United States,"
"This is Deputy Chief Hartman of the Los Angeles Police Department,"
…………
After introducing the important guests present to ****, Feng Yiping remembered something, "I'm sorry everyone, excuse me,"
**** nodded clearly to Feng Yiping. He was very grateful for Feng Yiping's actions. With Feng Yiping's matchmaking, he believed that his trip to Silicon Valley would definitely yield a lot.
