143: Chapter 143 The Transparency of 20D!
Their families might be respectable in Magic City, but on a national scale in China, they were at most third-tier.
Even if they were willing to pay, they might not necessarily be able to buy tickets.
"I'll go back and ask the elders in my family to try."
"I'll also go ask my elders to pull some strings."
Many second-generation heirs took a deep breath on the spot, determined to have their families find a way in.
They had been paying close attention to Shen Zhou during this time.
Therefore, they were naturally aware that Shen Zhou had spent hundreds of millions of Euros in Europe, and they were even more aware of his relationship with the Russian tycoon Andrei.
Thus, the current Kuangbiao Competition was their best opportunity to establish a connection with Shen Zhou.
No one wanted to let this opportunity slip through their fingers.
...
On the other side, while having dinner, Shen Zhou and Andrei talked about going to Switzerland to participate in the Kuangbiao Competition.
Andrei set down his knife and fork with a solemn expression.
"Shen Zhou, this year's Kuangbiao Competition is different from previous years; the organizing committee has implemented a major reform."
"They have decided to officially designate F1 racing as a secondary event of the Kuangbiao Competition."
According to Andrei, the professional level of the Kuangbiao Competition was indeed high enough.
However, its global popularity and recognition were too low.
In the past, multiple top-tier conglomerates invested massive amounts of human and material resources to participate in the Kuangbiao Competition.
The goal of those conglomerates was to push their respective car brands forward and achieve major technological breakthroughs.
But with the global economic downturn, life hasn't been easy for the major conglomerates.
Therefore, they proposed to the organizing committee that the Kuangbiao Competition should be reformed.
Naturally, the organizing committee had no objections; after all, without these major conglomerates, the Kuangbiao Competition would exist in name only.
"So starting from this year, the Kuangbiao Competition will attract media from all over the world."
"The corresponding promotional work has already begun, but because the planners were brain-dead, they still only targeted the top-tier wealthy class for promotion."
Andrei shook his head, somewhat speechless.
In other words, despite wanting higher visibility, the Kuangbiao Competition was still only being promoted to old-money billionaires like them.
Even a billionaire of Shen Zhou's level was completely unaware of this.
Perhaps those arrogant members of the organizing committee still needed time to change their mindset.
"Ah..."
"So among the people going to the scene this time, will there be a large number of influencers and the nouveau riche?"
Shen Zhou was suddenly a bit displeased.
He didn't want every place to become completely devoid of exclusivity.
"You could say that, but it's still much better than the so-called F1 races."
"If you're interested in activities like racing, this year is indeed the best opportunity to participate."
"After all, after this year, subsequent Kuangbiao events will be just like the F1 league, slowly losing their entry barriers entirely and eventually becoming a holy land for influencers."
Andrei lightly patted Shen Zhou's shoulder.
"I understand, I still have to make the trip."
Shen Zhou nodded.
With the task issued by System Bro, he had to go no matter what.
Moreover, he had already made an appointment with Wang Sicong this time.
After the meal ended, Shen Zhou contacted his female companions in Magic City via his phone.
Lin Lan: The Kuangbiao Competition? Forget it, I'm not very interested in racing.
Li Manzhi: I'd really like to go, but there's an international clothing exhibition in a few days. For the future development of my fashion brand, I must attend.
He asked several women in a row, and everyone said they had important matters to attend to.
As for the pair of black and white sister flowers at school, it happened to be their exam period.
When Shen Zhou started contacting Xue Shuangshuang again, the timing was just right.
"Darling, is the location of the Kuangbiao Competition you mentioned in Switzerland?"
"That's such a coincidence! I'm in Switzerland right now, so I'll just wait for you here."
Xue Shuangshuang said on the other end of the phone, full of pleasant surprise.
She thought it would be a long time before she and Shen Zhou could meet again.
Who would have thought that their reunion would come so quickly?
After making arrangements with Xue Shuangshuang, Shen Zhou took Juliana and flew to Switzerland ahead of schedule on Andrei's private jet.
The plane landed in Zurich, Switzerland.
This is the economic and cultural center of Switzerland, also known as the most livable place in the world.
Andrei's butler had already helped Shen Zhou arrange the entire itinerary in Switzerland.
He even specifically arranged for bodyguards to accompany Shen Zhou.
As the group just got off the plane, a stretched Rolls-Royce from the hotel was already waiting outside the VIP passage.
After getting into the car, the group soon arrived at the international convention center.
The Kuangbiao Competition would be held at this special international venue.
Inside this international convention center, a huge enclosed arena had been built decades ago.
The Kuangbiao Competition was held here every year.
"Darling, I'm here!"
Shen Zhou waited at the entrance for a while, and from a distance, he saw Xue Shuangshuang wearing high heels, walking up quickly and excitedly.
At this time, Xue Shuangshuang was wearing a pair of shiny black high heels, her legs wrapped in a pair of black silk stockings with a thickness of less than 20D.
These black stockings appeared incredibly thin, even giving a faint feeling of exposing the skin.
"Darling, I'm so sorry for making you wait."
Xue Shuangshuang walked up and unhesitatingly took Shen Zhou's arm.
Then she glanced at Juliana beside Shen Zhou as if nothing were wrong.
But soon, a look of uncertainty and surprise flashed in her eyes.
Shen Zhou smiled as he put his arm around Xue Shuangshuang's waist and introduced her:
"Shuangshuang, this is Juliana; she usually films movies in Hollywood."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Shuangshuang let out a cry of surprise and couldn't help but cover her red lips with her right hand.
"Oh my god, she really is Juliana! I thought I had misidentified her just now!"
Xue Shuangshuang's eyes were full of excitement.
"Miss Juliana, I'm a fan of yours. I love the movie 'Tomb Raider' that you starred in the most."
"You are simply too beautiful!"
Xue Shuangshuang uncontrollably moved to Juliana's side, her two jade-like arms raised in front of her chest, waving them constantly; she looked very lively.
"Shuangshuang, thank you for the support. You are very beautiful too!"
Juliana had originally been a bit worried that the woman beside Shen Zhou would be difficult to get along with.
Seeing that Xue Shuangshuang was her fan, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief and immediately began talking with Xue Shuangshuang in Chinese with a beaming smile.
Soon, the two women were walking arm-in-arm, not even bothering to pay attention to Shen Zhou.
"This girl is really interesting."
Shen Zhou couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
He had indeed heard Xue Shuangshuang mention Juliana before.
But the adjectives Xue Shuangshuang used back then were 'glamorous hussy' and the like.
If one had to say she was a fan of Juliana, then what she envied most wasn't her acting skills, but rather that slender waist and those magnificent curves.
"Two women make for quite a show!"
Shen Zhou shook his head slightly and stood there waiting quietly.
