今天晚上根据白宫公布的名单一共是有225名宾客，可以说是非常的隆重而且盛大。就像我们刚才也提到，这次的国宴是自1997年克林顿总统宴请江主席之后第一次美国的领导人为中国的领导人来访设下的国宴，也因此美国在这次准备十分的仔细，十分的慎重。白宫在稍候会把今天晚上宴客的整个的菜单公布，我们也可以看一看，到底奥巴马总统用什么样的佳肴来宽待**主席。

白宫公布的今晚国宴名册：Anna Wintour 也有份，可见是实力派人物，可以专场鉴来宾的A货。其它媒体应邀的有《纽约时报》的Thomas Friedman，Nick Kristof，《华盛顿邮报》的David Ignatius，常驻上海的《大西洋月刊》记者James Fallows，ABC的Christinane Amanpour，还有迪士尼的总裁Robert Iger。和中国做生意的有微软的Steven Ballmer，通用的Jeff Immelt，可口可乐的 Muhtar Kent，摩根大通的Jamie Dimon, 高盛的Lloyd Blankfein，卡莱尔集团的Rubenstein。 还有波音、陶氏等等。过气的老人也有代表：外交三剑客基辛格、Brezezinski、Scowcroft，早就退休了的关颖珊和早就应该退休的成龙，还有退不退都一个样的董建华。

以上这些人都是谁呢，听我一一解读。

Brezezinski 布热津斯基，卡特时期的国家安全事务助理，著名的地缘政治学者。这老兄是波兰后裔，于是极端反苏（波兰人认为1939年苏联人和德国人联合起来侵略波兰的），极力主张拉拢中国，遏制苏联。在他任上，中美正式建交。这老哥今年83岁了，前几天还刚访问过中国，不知道有什么特别使命。

Scowcroft，斯考克罗夫特，老布什总统期间的国家安全事务助理。这老兄一手推动了柏林墙的倒塌，和前苏联社会主义阵营的崩溃。1989年SIX FOUR之后，西方国家撤走了外交人员，停止了一切援助和交流，中国重又陷入孤岛之中。打破坚冰地点就是这老兄，SIX FOUR之后不到一个月，这老兄就秘密访问中国，在短短20个小时的访问中，和李鹏、小平都进行了会谈。特别是同小平的会谈，使美国政府判断中国将继续走改革开放的道路，从而放松和逐渐解除了对华封锁。
在外交史上，斯考克罗夫特不如能白话的布热津斯基知名，但是其实这厮的资历更深。1925年出生，毕业于西点军校，曾经参与1972年尼克松、基辛格秘密打开中国之门的行动，早在1975年就成为福特总统的国家安全事务助理。这厮也是苏联问题专家，小布什的国务卿赖斯，就是他一手提拔起来的。

Ms. Bette Bao Lord, New York, NY
美国前驻华大使温斯顿·洛德的妻子，华裔，中文名叫包柏漪，曾经用英文写过一部比较著名的小说《春月》

Madeleine Albright 就是美国历史上第一位女国务卿奥尔布赖特，也是东欧人，1937年出生于捷克。1997年在第二届克林顿政府中担任国务卿。这是个猛女，有名的鹰派，在她任上，中美关系一度非常紧张，发生了美国轰炸中国驻前南使馆的严重事件。
alice Albright 不知道是谁，或许是她女儿？

美国百人会的现任会长程守宗，软件公司赛贝斯公司的董事会主席。百人会在在美华人最顶级的组织，只有100余名会员，只有像贝聿铭、马友友、田长霖、骆家辉、李开复这样的知名华裔人士才能加入。

Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, Culver City, CA
号称华人首富的陈颂雄，出生于南非、后移民于美国。最初是一名医生,在美国他成功研发出抗癌新药物,并先后创办了3家生物制药公司,这其中就包括阿博瑞斯生物科技公司。金融危机到来前,陈颂雄果断地以46亿美元的价格,将他在1997年创办的美国药品伙伴制药公司卖给了德国医药巨头费森尤斯公司。后来他又以29亿美元的价格,把他拥有82.4%股份的阿博瑞斯生物科技公司卖了出去。两次交易让陈颂雄身价暴涨。2010年,陈颂雄以55亿美元的身家名列《福布斯》2010年全美富豪榜第60名。而在《洛杉矶经济周报》评选出的50位洛杉矶富豪排行榜中,他二度坐上头把交椅,该报估计他的净资产达71亿美元。

The Honorable Elaine Chao, Washington, D.C
