Muhammad also falls into the category of world-famous figures.
Although Adam III was among the wealthiest individuals in Europe and even the world, he still dared not flaunt his wealth with Muhammad. In fact, some of Adam III's businesses relied on Muhammad's support!
The people at the Dutch television station all knew that Mohammed was an extremely difficult Arab to deal with, and quite aloof. They were surprised to find that Mohammed seemed to be quite familiar with Gao Jianfei.
“Brother Adam, I have a good piece of advice for you,” Zhu Cong said to Prince Adam in English with a smile. “As you know, my health has never been good. I’ve been plagued by illness, and I was almost abandoned by God! But then I met Mr. Gao Jianfei, who saved me from this affliction. Brother Adam, I have a piece of advice for you: you can offend anyone, but don’t try to offend a doctor!”
“Uh…” Adam III broke out in a cold sweat. He wanted to say something, but his throat felt blocked and he couldn’t speak.
"Haha... An excellent doctor is certainly admirable, but I don't know if he'll still have the chance to demonstrate his medical skills to the world in four days!" At this moment, another elderly man in his sixties, vigorous and with a ruddy complexion, walked over. His aura was stronger than Zhu Cong and Adam III! He looked Asian, but not like a Chinese or Japanese person. "What we're interested in now is gambling skills, not medical skills."
"Damn it, Gao, this guy is King Sua of Thailand. He's the richest royal in the world, richer than me..." Zhu Cong whispered to Gao Jianfei.
Gao Jianfei frowned, his displeasure growing... Damn it, is this ever going to end? Supporting Chen Yifeng is one thing, but why are they all coming to pick a fight with me? This is so unlucky!
"Mr. Gao Jianfei, I've heard about your medical skills in Thailand. You're remarkable, and it seems you're also a painter. Moreover, in three months, you will be competing against Mr. Feng Haoyu in a so-called genius challenge." King Sua of Thailand said to Gao Jianfei with a forced smile.
"Heh, it seems you've done some investigation on me." Gao Jianfei chuckled.
"Haha! In fact, I am a very good friend of Mr. Chen Yifeng." Su Asheng raised his voice. "Most of the people here are friends of Mr. Chen Yifeng. We came to Japan partly to catch up with old friends, and partly to cheer them on. As for you, Mr. Gao Jianfei, none of us believe that after your match with Mr. Chen Yifeng, you will still have the chance to keep your hands and feet intact and participate in Mr. He Fenghaoyu's genius challenge!"
This is a blatant provocation against Gao Jianfei!
His words were immediately echoed by most of the guests present, who showered Gao Jianfei with mocking and ridiculing smiles.
Gao Jianfei never expected that Chen Yifeng's influence was so great! So many people internationally respect Chen Yifeng!
Of course, Gao Jianfei wouldn't be intimidated by the King of Thailand. On the contrary, he was the kind of person who responded better to gentle persuasion than force.
"Hahaha! Everyone, I'm happy for Chen Yifeng because he has a group of very loyal supporters! However, in our country, there's an old saying... 'The Yangtze River's back waves push the front waves forward.' I don't want to say more about how Chen Yifeng got his world number one position, but in four days, he will be reduced to a penniless beggar! In fact, I don't want to waste my breath on you. I prefer to let the facts speak for themselves. After I defeat Chen Yifeng, you will find out how naive your actions today were! Alright, tonight's banquet is over for me!"
After saying that, Gao Jianfei was about to leave with Tang Bao and the others.
At this very moment...
"Slap! Slap! Slap!"
Several rounds of applause suddenly rang out, and then a black man, followed by more than a dozen white bodyguards, walked directly toward Gao Jianfei.
Everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to the black man.
Then, everyone's eyes were fixed on it!
Even Gao Jianfei himself was stunned!
Even the host of this place, Harumi Yamaguchi, the head of the Yamaguchi-gumi, was completely stunned... What? Why is he here? I remember I didn't invite him, and I don't think I'm qualified to invite him! Oh right, I heard he's supposed to visit Japan in three days, but I didn't expect him to come early!
“Mr. Gao Jianfei, it seems that you have very few supporters. Well then, I support you!” The black man walked directly up to Gao Jianfei, extended his hand in a very friendly manner, and shook hands with Gao Jianfei.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment!
"Holy crap... why is the US president here?" Gao Jianfei was utterly speechless.
Chapter 351 Sister Bi is Here
Chapter 351 Sister Bi is Here
Gao Jianfei, somewhat dazed, reached out and shook hands with the black man.
Gao Jianfei was truly breathless for a few seconds! On one hand, the black man exuded an invisible aura, an overwhelming majesty, which directly intimidated the entire audience! On the other hand, Gao Jianfei had seen this black man on television before!
This guy is very famous. Most people who have watched the news broadcast already know him... the current US president, Obama!
The entire audience froze, completely mesmerized!
The Dutch television reporters stared blankly at Gao Jianfei and Obasi as they shook hands.
Meanwhile, the King of Thailand, the Prince of Liechtenstein, the Emir of the UAE, the leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi... these people who were originally highly respected are now dumbfounded!
To be honest, their status and position are indeed quite impressive internationally. However, compared to the current US president, they are undoubtedly insignificant!
Basically, most people on this planet would pale in comparison to the President of the United States!
"Uh... Mr. Obasi, hello." After a few seconds of stunned silence, Gao Jianfei finally came to his senses. He had been very nervous, but now he breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, when someone has chatted and drunk with someone like Li Xunhuan, then after a brief moment of distraction, they can handle someone like Obasi with ease and composure.
So Gao Jianfei smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Hmm?" Obasi's heart skipped a beat... This Dr. Gao is indeed no ordinary person. He can remain neither humble nor arrogant in front of me, which is extremely difficult!
It should be noted that as the leader of a superpower, Obasi has a powerful presence. When he visits some small European and American countries or small Asian countries, the heads of state, kings and prime ministers of those countries will definitely be extremely respectful and flattered. They will never be as composed and dignified as Gao Jianfei!
"Haha, Dr. Gao Jianfei, first of all, I must thank you on behalf of the American people." Obasi released Gao Jianfei's hand, picked up a glass of red wine from the table next to him, and clinked glasses with Gao Jianfei. "You should know that Mr. Thomson has a very high reputation among the American people. Last time, when Dr. Gao treated Mr. Thomson, our American television station broadcast it live. I happened to watch that broadcast as well. As for Dr. Gao's medical skills, I think the word 'myth' can be used to describe them. Perhaps Dr. Gao doesn't know that in the United States, Dr. Gao is already regarded as an idol of many young people. Some young people have begun to learn Chinese and are determined to go to China to become Dr. Gao's apprentices and learn that magical acupuncture technique... Ah, acupuncture technique, I think it is a treasure of the world! It is the source of miracles! And this time, I am representing the United States on a visit to Japan. I happened to learn that Dr. Gao would be in Japan to participate in a gambling competition, so I came to Japan in advance. So, after Dr. Gao finishes the competition, I will personally award the Medal of Honor to the respected Dr. Gao."
His words explained why Obasi supported Gao Jianfei.
It was also because of Gao Jianfei's medical skills that he gained these international connections!
In the following time, the Yamaguchi-gumi leader personally came over to greet Obasi and chatted with him attentively. Obasi, however, only offered perfunctory polite replies. He clearly valued Gao Jianfei more and focused his main energy on chatting with Gao Jianfei.
Tang Bao, Fei Long, Chen Yaohui, and the others were completely stunned and shocked. They couldn't get a word in edgewise, but they just stood by and looked at Obasi with extreme curiosity.
The President of the United States! This is simply beyond the psychological capacity of people like Tang Bao and Fei Long!
Soon, figures such as the King of Thailand, Prince Adam of Liechtenstein, members of royal families from some Arab countries, and high-ranking officials from some European countries came over to curry favor, wanting to have a chat with Obasi.
Obasi handled the situation with impeccable manners, quickly becoming the center of attention at the banquet! However, his stance was quite intriguing; he would tell these people trying to curry favor with him… “Haha, everyone, before the match between Mr. Gao Jianfei and Mr. Chen Yifeng ended, we were all on opposing sides, haha! I supported Mr. Gao Jianfei, while you supported Mr. Chen Yifeng… hahaha!”
This half-joking, half-serious tone made the guests extremely embarrassed. Some fickle people immediately switched sides, jumping from supporting Chen Yifeng to supporting Gao Jianfei!
This left Gao Jianfei both amused and exasperated.
Humans are often very hypocritical creatures. Previously, Gao Jianfei was treated unwelcomely at this banquet, but now, many powerful and influential people have come out to chat with him, toast him, and even exchange phone numbers with him.
As everyone gathered around Gao Jianfei and Obasi, Obasi suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Oh? She...she's here too?"
Obasi's usually composed face suddenly flashed with a strange expression. He whispered to Gao Jianfei, "Dr. Gao, please excuse me for a moment. There is an important guest I need to greet."
After saying that, Obasi, holding a glass of red wine, squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the villa entrance, surrounded by bodyguards.
A graceful and elegant young woman walked towards them, exuding a captivating charm and an air of noble unapproachability. Behind her stood eight composed bodyguards!
This young woman is from China! Her bodyguards are also from China!
As soon as the young woman entered the villa area, her eyes began to dart around, as if she were looking for someone.
Gao Jianfei and the other guests, including the host, Yamaguchi-gumi leader Haruko, were all astonished... Who was so distinguished that even Obasi personally went up to greet him?
As a result, everyone's eyes were drawn to that direction.
Upon seeing this, Gao Jianfei, Tang Bao, Feilong's wife, and the others simultaneously exclaimed in their hearts, "Huh? Sister Bi is here too!"
Yes, the visitor was none other than Sister Bi! Sister Bi had always been a mysterious figure to Gao Jianfei, and someone who always gave him a peculiar feeling…!
“Oh! Mrs. Zheng, I didn’t expect you to come to Japan! Hehe, Chief Kai Xiong has been in such good health lately, hasn’t he? Haha, the last time you and Chief Kai Xiong visited the United States, it was a rare experience for me! Welcome to the United States again, Mrs. Zheng and Chief Kai Xiong!” Obasi smiled and chatted with Sister Bi.
Seeing Obasi in this setting was slightly surprising for Sister Bi, but as the wife of the head of state of Z country, she often accompanied her husband on overseas visits. She was dignified and polite, and naturally adept at social interaction. She quickly struck up a friendly conversation with Obasi. However, her eyes kept darting around, as if searching for someone.
"Hiss!" Yamaguchi Harukoku, who was standing next to Gao Jianfei, couldn't help but shudder.
Gao Jianfei's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but ask Yamaguchi Haruka, "Yamaguchi-kun, who is that beautiful lady?"
“Jianfei, that’s Mrs. Zheng Kaixiong, the head of Z country! She’s also an international philanthropist, a truly remarkable woman! It’s unbelievable…it’s unbelievable that President Obasi is here today, and Mrs. Zheng is here too…tsk tsk, our Yamaguchi-gumi has never received such distinguished guests before!” Yamaguchi Harumi pulled Gao Jianfei along. “Come on, Jianfei, let’s go up and greet Mrs. Zheng. These kinds of dignitaries aren’t people we encounter often!”
Haruka Yamaguchi pulled Gao Jianfei along and headed straight for Obasi and Sister Bi.
"What?! Sister Bi is actually the wife of the leader of Z country?! My God! My God!" Gao Jianfei was once again stunned by this bombshell!
Suddenly, Sister Bi's gaze sharpened; she saw Gao Jianfei!
That sense of closeness, connected by blood, immediately enveloped her!
“It’s been a long time, Jianfei looks… more energetic! More refined! Good boy!” A surge of maternal love welled up in Sister Bi’s heart, and she smiled directly at Obasi, “Mr. Obasi, please excuse me for a moment.”
Then, Sister Bi walked directly towards Gao Jianfei.
"Dear Mrs. Zheng!" Yamaguchi Harumo greeted her directly in Japanese, bowing and extending his hand politely, wanting to shake hands with Sister Bi who was walking quickly towards him.
Unexpectedly, Sister Bi completely ignored Yamaguchi Haruka. On a whim, she gently put her arm around Gao Jianfei's shoulder and said softly, "Jianfei, I've finally found you! I flew to Japan today specifically to find you! Let's find a place later and have a good talk!"
Their attitude was extremely friendly!
Gao Jianfei's mind was a complete mess... What's wrong with Sister Bi? With such a noble status, why is she being so affectionate towards me? Moreover, her concern is definitely not fake!
What happened?
As soon as Sister Bi hugged Gao Jianfei, she realized that this was a public place. If she was too affectionate towards Gao Jianfei, it might give scheming people something to talk about later!
So, Bi Jie reluctantly let go of Gao Jianfei and whispered, "Jianfei, come with me after the banquet!"
"This..." Gao Jianfei stammered! To be honest, Bi Jie's inexplicable enthusiasm should have made Gao Jianfei suspicious, or even disgusted.
But strangely enough, Gao Jianfei seemed to have an instinctive sense of closeness when facing Sister Bi!
It was a feeling that bordered on filial piety!
"Alright, let's talk about it after the banquet," Gao Jianfei nodded.
At this moment, Yamaguchi Haruka, who had been left out in the cold, began to twitch the muscles at the corners of his mouth... Jianfei-kun, who... who exactly is he?
He has a good relationship with US President Obama; and he seems to be very close to Madam Zheng... Just who is Jianfei Jun?
Seeing the intimate relationship between Gao Jianfei and Sister Bi, Obasi began to reassess Gao Jianfei.
If at the beginning, Obasi was only polite to Gao Jianfei out of respect and admiration for Gao Jianfei's medical skills, then now, seeing the wife of the head of state of China attaching such importance to Gao Jianfei, then Gao Jianfei's status in Obasi's mind has risen to another level!
Chapter 352 Chen Yifeng Arrives!
Chapter 352 Chen Yifeng Arrives!
At this banquet, Gao Jianfei was undoubtedly the center of attention!
From the very beginning, Gao Jianfei faced various provocations, humiliations, and disrespect. However, the appearance of Sister Bi and Obasi immediately turned the tide for Gao Jianfei.
Previously, the King of Thailand and the Prince of Liechtenstein, who had tried to put down Gao Jianfei's arrogance on behalf of their friend Chen Yifeng, now suddenly felt a faint sadness after being slapped in the face.
While Gao Jianfei was chatting with Obasi, Sister Bi was pulled aside by Feilong's wife and Feilong for a quiet and serious conversation.
“Sister Bi, we all know why you came to Japan today!” Feilong’s wife and Sister Bi have been close friends for many years. Therefore, although Sister Bi’s status is now extremely prominent, Feilong’s wife feels no pressure in front of her and can speak her mind as if she were one of her own.
“Yes.” Sister Bi didn’t refute at all. “I will not allow Jianfei to compete with that wicked guy Chen Yifeng! Jianfei is no match for him!”
"Hoo..." Sister Feilong took a deep breath. "Sister Bi, then, tell me the truth, do you hate Chen Yifeng?"
"I hate it!" Sister Bi said through gritted teeth without even thinking.
"Alright, if there were someone who could personally defeat Chen Yifeng on the gambling table, avenge Brother Jin, and take back everything Brother Jin lost from Chen Yifeng, would you be happy? Joyful? Relieved?" Sister Feilong said very quickly.
Sister Bi responded instinctively, "I...I'll be happy! Of course, I'll be incredibly pleased!"
