Chapter 1085: An Engagement with Mitterrand
"Mr. President, long time no see, good evening!"
"Mr. Xia, welcome to your arrival, please come in!"
After a brief handshake, François Mitterrand welcomed Xia Yu in.
When entering the living room, Xia Yu saw a woman in a red coat, Xia Yu saw the photo when he looked at François Mitterrand's information, it was his wife, the current first lady of France - Danielle Mitterrand.
And Xia Yu also knows that Danielle Mitterrand is also a rational woman who is keen on politics, although she became the first lady, she did not live a pampered life as a vase in the Elysee Palace, and is now devoting herself to the French human rights movement, which is a special existence in the whole of Europe.
"Mr. Xia, this is my wife, Danielle. ”
"My dear, this is the Mr. Xia I told you, an outstanding person from the Oriental Xiangjiang. ”
"Hello, Madam Danielle, it's a pleasure to meet you! ”
Mr. Xia, I have to thank you for your support of my husband, your arrival is always welcome in our family!"
“......”
After talking and laughing for a while, the three of them sat down one after another, and the first lady Danielle made coffee for her husband and Xia Yu, and then knew that the two men had something to talk about, so they made an excuse to leave the living room and go upstairs.
"Mr. Xia, did you just come to France today?"
François Mitterrand took a sip of his coffee and asked calmly.
Xia Yu smiled and shook his head: "No, today is the fifth day of my visit to France, and there are indeed a lot of things that have not been dealt with a few days ago, so I didn't come to visit you." ”
François Mitterrand laughed and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, we are close friends, many things don't have to be so deliberate, you know, I'm a pragmatic person." ”
Xia Yu smiled and nodded: "You are indeed a pragmatic person, which is a blessing for the French people." ”
François Mitterrand laughed happily.
After laughing, he asked Xia Yu: "Mr. Xia, do you have anything to do with your visit to France this time?"
Let's get down to business!
Xia Yu restrained his smile slightly, and said bluntly: "I plan to make a large-scale investment in France. ”
François Mitterrand's eyes lit up, his upturned legs were lowered, his body leaned forward slightly, and he said enthusiastically and expectantly: "Mr. Xia, the investment environment in France is very good, and on behalf of France, I welcome you to invest in France." ”
"Do you have a specific investment plan? Maybe I can help!"
Xia Yu said with a light smile: "Mr. Mitterrand, I didn't know enough about the situation in France before, and I am still in the process of understanding, and the specific investment plan has not yet been made. ”
François Mitterrand agreed: "Of course, the government has always been considerate of foreign investments. ”
"And we are also good friends, I will give you the greatest help within the scope of my ability!"
"You can call me at any time. ”
As he spoke, François Mitterrand took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Xia Yu, and said again: "This is my personal business card, with two numbers on it, one from my home and the other from my private office." ”
"Okay!"
Xia Yu solemnly took it, looked at it and put it in his pocket.
Then, Xia Yu took the initiative to ask: "Mr. Mitterrand, I heard that the government is now leading the nationalization of some industries, have you already determined which ones?"
"I want to avoid some areas in advance so that I don't get you in a bad way. ”
Although the words are tactful, the meaning is very clear.
Facing Xia Yu's scorching gaze, François Mitterrand pondered for a moment, but decided to tell Xia Yu the truth.
Because he wasn't sure if Xia Yu already knew but was deliberately asking him, anyway, there have been many discussions within the government now, and with the eyes of the major French families, he must have known a lot, so there is no need to hide it from Xia Yu.
He said truthfully: "Mr. Xia, the government is indeed promoting nationalization reforms, and it has not been out of the economic quagmire for so many years, and only by strengthening government intervention can we save the French economy." ”
"Companies that are now state-owned enterprises, if there is an outflow of a small amount of equity, they will be bought back. ”
"Then there is the heavy industry sector and the banking sector, which will be the main areas of reform for the government. ”
"However, in other areas of finance other than banking, the government will not interfere too much. ”
"Of course, if Mr. Xia, you plan to develop in the banking industry, you can do it, but there will be some restrictions for the time being......"
Xia Yu showed a look of surprise.
He went on to ask: "Monsieur Mitterrand, which of the banks will be nationalized in the nationalization reform of the banking sector?
François Mitterrand could not have said truthfully about Xia Yu's questions.
So he shook his head, with a look of regret on his face, and said with emotion: "For the time being, there is no standard, it is still being discussed, and it is still uncertain how it will be operated." ”
Xia Yu bowed slightly, and suddenly said, "Mr. Mitterrand, I want to ask you for a favor!"
François Mitterrand's heart sank, but he asked quietly: "Mr. Xia, please speak!"
Xia Yu smiled and said: "If the French government intends to nationalize all the large private banks, then it must not leave out the Edmond Derothschild Bank, and try not to approve it no matter how they do it." ”
"I think the major families and consortia in France will definitely support your approach, and there should be little resistance at home. ”
Xia Yu is targeting the Rothschild family!
François Mitterrand's pupils shrank, he looked at Xia Yu with a solemn face, and asked, "Mr. Xia, do you have any conflict with the Rothschild family?"
Because the plan in France required the full support of François Mitterrand, and he himself was not a Jewish sympathizer, Xia Yu did not hide his intentions.
Xia Yu nodded, his eyes were as sharp as light, and he said with a resolute expression: "The Rothier family calculated many times when I was weak and embezzled some of my interests, and now I have the strength to fight against them, I want to take back what belongs to me!"
Have the strength to fight against the Rothier family!
This bit of information in Xia Yu's words was noticed by François Mitterrand, and his heart was shocked, is Xia Yu's strength so strong?
How is this possible?
But since he dared to attack the Rothier family, it was impossible not to have a certain amount of confidence, so even if it was not enough to confront the Rothier family, it should be enough to protect himself.
Even if it's enough to protect yourself, it's amazing!
In François Mitterrand's heart, Xia Yu's weight skyrocketed again.
He has already made up his mind that he has to use the French intelligence system to investigate Xia Yu's true strength, and maybe he needs Xia Yu's greater support next time he is re-elected......
François Mitterrand and Xia Yu looked at each other and said seriously: "Mr. Xia, do you want to completely drive the Edmond de Rothschild Bank out of France?"
"If so, even if other families in China will support it, it will be difficult, and I will have to bear a lot of pressure. ”
Xia Yu shook his head with a faint smile and said: "Mr. Mitterrand, it is not necessary to completely drive them out, I know that the Rothschild family has other assets in France in addition to the Edmond de Rothschild Bank, and it is very unrealistic to want to drive them out completely." ”
"Actually, my real thoughts are ......"
As Xia Yu spoke, François Mitterrand suddenly showed an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.
If he does this, his pressure is only temporary, and it can be pushed to other families in France, so that they can be in the front, and there is still some room for maneuver.
And Xia Yu also promised to give a generous thanks, so what reason did he have to refuse?
He nodded happily and agreed: "Mr. Xia, I understand what you mean, you have helped me a lot before, and I will help you with this favor!"
"When there is a change, you will contact me when the time comes. ”
"Okay. ”
"Thank you, Monsieur Mitterrand!"
"You're welcome, aren't we close friends?"
"Yes, haha......"
......
After everything was negotiated smoothly, Xia Yu put his mind at ease, seeing that it was not too early, he did not linger too long, and took the initiative to say goodbye.
Calculate the affairs of the Rothschild family with the help of the President of France, and for François Mitterrand, then it is absolutely foolproof!
Next, he had to build his career in France.
The French branch of the Mirror Group and the French branch of the Bright Fund are simply not enough.
And France is full of large and small conglomerates, and the dense network of relationships is more complex and secretive than that of Britain......
PS: The situation in France is that the more you check the information, the more complicated it feels, it is indeed more difficult than the UK, the plot is not easy to arrange, and I am speechless.
