Chapter 1137 The Powerful Class

In January at 50° north latitude, darkness comes too early.

The sky was already dark before five o'clock in Calgary. After an hour after people got off work,

Only then did we finally see what we should see in the night.

Under the pure black sky, the city center is brightly lit,

On the golden-orange streets, the traffic flowed endlessly, and the skyscrapers were lit up among the dense golden trees. The landmark Calgary Tower was extremely conspicuous.

People come and go, colorful neon lights,

There is no darkness in the entire central city. This scene is based on energy supply.

Thoroughly interprets the prosperity of modern civilization!

After a day's work, people go out together, eat and have fun. This is the time when the city is most prosperous at night.

The streets, which seemed empty due to their vast space and sparsely populated areas, became busy and lively.

Then in this night scene,

In front of a golden and gorgeous hotel building in the city center.

Vehicles gathered, and many figures with cameras hanging on their chests were standing guard in front of the building with their companions holding photographic equipment next to their respective cars.

The battle, which looked busier than some shopping malls, made people passing by look sideways and wonder what was going on.

"Ha... Do we really have to wait in this temperature forever..."

Next to a car, he exhaled hot breath into his hands. A man named Maro felt the sub-zero low temperature and looked at the night sky that had already turned completely dark.

"Stop talking about these useless things. You know how important tonight is. If you don't have time to complain, why not prepare it for me?"

Celia, who was holding a camera next to him, was always looking at the door of the building, urging him to be ready to rush forward at any time while emphasizing:

"As long as we can interview...no, ask one or two questions, our mission for this month will be enough!"

interview,

That's right, both Celia and Marlow are professional reporters from a media company and were assigned to do this interview tonight.

Not only them, but all the people gathered here at this moment are like this.

As for the reason, it is because of connections, gossip... In short, the media has various channels, and these news companies have learned...

There's a pretty incredible business party tonight.

"I'm coming!"

Noticing an expensive Porsche approaching, Celia shouted out in shock, and then exclaimed when she saw the people getting out of the car:

"That was...Miranda Bucci, the communications director for the Calgary Energy Association, a well-known figure in the city, I met her in a government interview,"

"Wait, that person next to her is... Voino Hensley!?"

"That particularly powerful and famous petroleum engineer?"

Confirming the name she mentioned that was a household name in Calgary, Marlow only saw that her companion ignored her and had already rushed forward like her colleagues around her...

"What is the theme of tonight's party?"

"Do you have any goals for participating tonight?"

...

Like a celebrity attending a press conference, I got out of the car and was surrounded by reporters holding microphones to ask questions and take photos. I have become accustomed to this scene.

Miranda just kept smiling in front of the public and walked straight into the hotel with the help of hotel security personnel.

"Speaking of which, are there really going to be so many big shots here tonight?"

The interior of the five-star hotel is luxurious. He followed the waiter and got into the elevator. Thinking about the inside information he had learned in advance, Voino, who was dressed in a suit, couldn't help but say,

“According to the number of invitations I asked from the hotel’s venue organizer,”

Arriving on the floor, looking at the gorgeous door at the entrance to the venue, Miranda took a deep breath and prepared her answer:

"It's just more than you think."

Then the door opened with their footsteps, and the bright light came into view,

Red wine and champagne are served on the pure white tablecloth, the glazed chandeliers are bright on the exquisitely patterned ceiling, and a layer of flowing golden light is spread on the clear floor tiles that reflect the reflection.

But what’s even more eye-catching than the venue itself is

It’s still the figures among them who are all dressed up in costumes,

Build an upper class under the glow!

Although in the eyes of the outside world, such as those reporters, they and others are already very powerful, but only Miranda and Voino know clearly.

They are just the most small figures in this venue, and they are just a little famous in this city.

"That's the sales director of Albert Power, and next to him is the regional manager of the largest natural gas company in the west."

Senior executives of large groups that go beyond the scope of a city and are involved in business in a region may not be known to the media and public.

But they are people who hold real power and have a higher status in the energy industry than them. Getting to know anyone is a huge power of connections.

Speaking in a low voice, Miranda instantly recognized the identities of two men in suits not far away, looked at each other with Voino and then stepped forward to talk...

They chatted with smiles until the two of them left. They continued to entertain the people who came to talk to them in the venue, and in between conversations over champagne and red wine,

In the brilliance of the hall, I know who will be coming tonight, and I have the professional acumen of occupying important positions.

Let the sales manager notice something extraordinary.

"With this scale and level, why is tonight's party held?"

"That's not something you and I can know about. That's something the big shots should worry about."

With a glass of champagne beside him, the regional manager said words that were not worthy of their status, and then turned his gaze solemnly to a position closer to the center of the venue,

The figures standing there are,

The executive director of an oil company, the president of a natural gas company, the largest shareholder of a large electric energy group, or an investor in more than one energy company...

Compared to them who hold real power and are only in that position, they are fundamentally different.

He is rich and only appears in magazine news. In some cases, only a few people in the circle know that he has the real right to stand at the top of the company by owning shares.

Those big guys with capital!

At this moment, where these big figures are at the venue,

"As soon as I got the news, I flew over from Toronto. I thought I wouldn't be able to make it to the cocktail party tonight."

The boss of a power generation company in Canada, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, looked at the acquaintances around him while holding a glass of red wine.

"Now that everyone is here, does anyone know the reason for the gathering tonight?"

Being in a position of holding capital, they know more and are more keen than others present. Being in shopping malls for many years has made them understand that the name of a charity party is just a cover for expanding contacts.

Tonight can't be an ordinary cocktail party. There must be some deeper reason for holding it.

"It is said..."

Swirling the liquid in the goblet, an investor in several coal companies in Canada and the United States was silent for a while before speaking in a slightly low voice:

"It's about the signing of the North Atlantic Energy Agreement."

The moment I heard him say this news,

Everyone has heard more or less about this agreement. Thinking of the existence it involves and the initiators of tonight's meeting,

After understanding something for a moment, the eyes of the extremely shrewd figures present became slightly solemn.

Indeed, each of them owns at least one large-scale industry in the energy industry, holding capital across an entire region.

For many people in this world, even in such an upper-class social circle, they are big shots that many people cannot reach.

However, there is also a gap between capital and capital.

They knew very well that it was not they themselves who decided the deeper meaning of this cocktail party tonight, but those above them.

The capital is so huge that it transcends a region or a country and controls the huge groups covering the entire industry supply chain.

Those super energy giants who stand at the top of this field!

Compared with them, those are the real big names who can affect the entire industry with every move.

Just like the reason buried behind tonight's cocktail party, the agreement that brought so many people to the scene touches on energy, a matter related to many industries and fields.

That North Atlantic Energy Agreement may involve something far more profound than just those here tonight.

For a time, they were all thinking about the impact of whether or not the agreement was reached on their own interests.

At the moment when they learned about the origin of tonight's cocktail party, each of them couldn't help but look at the real center of the entire venue.

Sitting on a sofa calmly and majestically, it was the apex of power and status of everyone present.

Andre Williams, President of Essenkofme!

At this moment when several other behemoth decision-makers have not yet arrived,

Andre stared coldly at the smiling man in front of him with a handsome man beside him.

His rival in this war, the enemy who wants to rob Essenkfume,

President of Star Power Group - Mephistopheles. (To be continued)
