Chapter 107: Social Rules of High Society (2/10)(2/2)

The names on the words composed of these golden letters are the seats.

These seat allocations are very strict, with clear distinctions and serious class concepts.

Today's charity dinner is hosted by Texas Commerce Bank.

Not enough status in New York.

But among the co-organizers are newspaper giants such as Dow Jones and the New York Times Company.

In this way, the level of this charity banquet was also improved.

This is a high-end, relatively public social gathering, even in Manhattan.

There are only a dozen shows every year, and any guest present is a symbol of identity and status.

This kind of occasion is the fame and fortune circle of New York's upper class, and its snobbery is far greater than that of the entertainment circle.

The scene is full of warmth and warmth of humanity, and the coldness of the world. With red tops and whites.

In this case.

The rich and famous will happily compete for family background, wealth, and female companions. This is collectively called ballpark culture.

This is like a social arena.

There are a group of famous ball queens in the United States, the so-called socialites who must attend every ball game and are keen to attend parties.

In parallel time and space, Paris, who will be two years from now, will be one of such ball queens.

Over in Hollywood, the women in the Kardashian family are all such queens.

The meaning of their lives is to show off on the ball field, to compare clothes, looks, jewelry, sexiness, grandpa, father, and husband.

In the future, there will be a popular Internet term called "c-bit", which has already taken shape in this era.

As an outsider, I come from a place like rural Texas that doesn't pay much attention to such things.

It can be said that Abel knew nothing about these things.

Different from last time.

The last time he attended the Hilton family's banquet, he arrived late.

When he went there, similar seats had already been arranged.

In addition, as soon as he arrived, David came to look for him.

There were many financial giants present at that time, so Abel did not realize this scope at all.

This time he came with Ikana and came earlier.

Many other guests hadn't arrived yet, which he immediately noticed.

Fortunately, Ikana beside him is very familiar with this so-called stadium culture.

Ikana's father, whether he was young or now, has always been a ball king.

From a relatively young age, Ikana often followed her father to attend such occasions.

She is very familiar with this kind of ball court culture and is also a master of it.

"There is such a thing."

The two communicated in low voices. Abel couldn't help but be a little amazed after listening to some interesting facts about the ballpark culture introduced by Ikana.

Ikana always had that kind of generous and decent smile on her face, with only a slight expression telling Abel that she was in a happier mood now.

She whispered: "I didn't expect you didn't know this."

"My family runs a farm. I am more familiar with how to harness horses and wool sheep. Oh, and how to breed mares or cows in heat." Abel shrugged.

After speaking, he noticed Ikana's somewhat surprised expression.

This made Abel realize that his last sentence seemed inappropriate to say in this situation.

He opened his mouth to explain: "What I mean by breeding mares and cows is that after I see that they are in estrus in the pasture, I will take them to the stalls and stalls' sheds and let them mate."

"You also need to carry out pedigree selection, so that good mares and cows can give birth to good pedigree ponies and calves."

"." Ikana didn't know how to respond.

She could only whisper, "That sounds really interesting. I've ridden horses and I like drinking milk, but I don't know that."

"I'll let you see it later if I have a chance," Abel said.

"Uh~ Okay." Ikana was helpless.

"Also, Ikana, tell me some more things about the so-called stadium culture. They sound really interesting."

Abel knew that this topic was what interested her.

So he quickly brought the topic back to this topic.

Ikana nodded, obviously happy to help Abel.

"Take this banquet as an example." She said softly.

"Generally speaking, this kind of banquet is hierarchical. Guests cannot sit wherever they want. Everyone has their own place."

"The first level is the organizer's summit stage. It has the most expensive status. Almost all the people who can sit there are the top richest people in the city."

"Here~" She stretched out her white and delicate fingers and pointed in the direction of the podium.

"There are only about five or six tables surrounding the first row there, which are first-class tables."

"Understood." Abel nodded.

It's a bit like attending a concert held by a celebrity.

The closer you are to the stars, the closer you are to the concert stage.

The higher the ticket price, the higher the ticket price, the more respectable you will be in the venue.

They are all people who are not short of money, or loyal fans.

"The second row is located next to it, scattered around the tables in the first row in front." Ikana said.

She didn't say that most banquets in New York City were of this level, or slightly inferior.

Even her father is often not qualified to sit in this waiting table.

Before Xianyu turned around, her father's status in New York was really not high.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have ended up being teased by Obama at the banquet, and used as the laughing star to lighten the atmosphere of the banquet.

"The third class is very far away from the podium, they are all marginal figures, and they are also the mainstream participants in the banquet.

Like the several Hollywood superstars who arrived tonight, their positions are usually right here."

Ikana said.

In fact, there is another kind of platform at the entrance. Sitting in this position means you will be the worst off.

Once placed in this position, many guests will leave early to avoid being ridiculed by snobbish people.

But the Texas Commercial Bank, which is hosting the banquet tonight, also has several major newspapers.

He is a good person and probably doesn't want to offend others.

Tonight's charity dinner has freed up the entrance area and not arranged a single seat.

Speaking of which, Ikana finally added:

"So, organizing such a super ball may seem simple, but in fact, many times it takes a lot of effort. Especially the arrangement of tables and seats, and who sits in which position, all need to be carefully weighed."

Abel nodded and drew inferences from one example. He already understood this so-called stadium culture.

He felt that in many cases, there was more than just weighing class status.

We even have to consider whether there is any personal grudge between the guests, or if the organizer is careless in doing things.

If two enemies are placed on the same seat, the organizer will easily offend both guests at the same time.

After all, the so-called upper class society is ultimately composed of people.

Since we are human beings, there is no way to avoid human nature.

"Okay." Abel looked at more and more people entering the venue, and he couldn't help but said:

"I see, it sounds interesting. But, Ikana, where do you think we should do? Or should I say, where am I assigned to sit?"

On the invitation letter, there will be no information about the seats.

If you write something like this on it, many people may simply stop coming.

Usually, it’s time to look for it by yourself until now.

Or just ask the waiter to take you there.

"I guess." Ikana said uncertainly: "It should be in the second class."
