Although what Isabella said is not true, it is not far away.

This also made Wu Tao look at her with admiration. I can't imagine that this romantic French girl still has some dry goods in her head.

It is no wonder that it can easily be mixed from the ESTI to the Batumi Committee.

It can be seen that the Western world still has a certain hostility and vigilance towards the sudden rise of China.

On the one hand, they are afraid to give up such a large and potential market, and on the other hand, they are afraid to cultivate a strong competitor for themselves.

Until the end of the banquet, Wu Tao was silently watching coldly.

Anyway, with Isabella by her side from beginning to end, she didn't leave her every step, but it wasn't so lonely and lonely.

However, from the small talk between Molly and Panis, Wu Tao knew that the organizer of this banquet had already met the two of them in private.

It's obviously hanging yourself.

So when Molly mentioned that she wanted to introduce the owner of the manor for him, Wu Tao refused without thinking about it.

The situation is so clear, there is no reason for me to use my hot face to stick to other people's cold butts.

Molly felt that Wu Tao was stubborn, and he was a unique Chinese person who wanted to save face, so she didn't understand it in her heart.

When the banquet began and the guests left one after another, Wu Tao immediately put down the wine glass that he had been playing with for a long time, got up and walked out.

Without saying a word, Isabella followed.

And Molly and the others, who were greeting their friends in the distance, didn't have time to keep up.

Walking out of the castle of the manor, Wu Tao looked up to the sky and breathed a sigh of relief. The sky in Amsterdam is so pure and blue. However, the circle and people of this place are not so simple.

"I'm a little hungry, what about you?" Wu Tao withdrew his gaze from the sky and looked back at Isabella, who had been with him.

Isabella nodded happily, her pretty face flushed with joy, "Me too." ”

"Okay, then let's go have a big meal!"

Just as the two of them raised their feet and wanted to leave, an arrogant voice came from behind them: "A dignified Mr. Wu from Huaxia, is he going to leave so disgraced?"

Wu Tao turned around and saw that a young man dressed brightly but with gloomy eyes was followed by a large group of men in black wearing sunglasses, coming straight towards him.

The young man combed his unruly blonde hair, and his blue eyes showed a self-righteous smile.

Seeing that Isabella was holding Wu Tao's arm tightly, her body shrank back.

Seeing the opponent's formation, Song Zhuang had already taken the lead in blocking Wu Tao's body. And the other Song Guanghui and others scattered next to the manor parking lot quickly gathered over.

As you assemble, you put your hand in your arms.

The scene suddenly became tense.

Although his own numbers do not have the upper hand and lack the home advantage, Song Zhuang is already thinking about how to send the boss away.

Wu Tao patted Song Zhuang's tense back and said lightly: "Don't be nervous, I think this Mr. Agnelli just wants to say a few words of schadenfreude." We also promote style, freedom of speech, and there is no need to make a big deal about it. ”

The young man who came over, although he couldn't understand what Wu Tao said to his subordinates, but judging from Song Zhuang's posture of letting go of his figure, he also guessed about it.

At that moment, with a wave of his white-gloved right hand, the sturdy black-clothed men behind him stopped in unison and stopped five steps away from Wu Tao.

At the same time, the young man spread out his hands and put on an unguarded posture, while taking off the white gloves on his hands and said, "Mr. Wu is really bold, it seems that his family background in Huaxia is probably not ordinary." ”

As soon as the words fell, the young man had already walked in front of Wu Tao.

The two are thirty centimeters apart, which is not a particularly comfortable distance. Especially when the two sides are not familiar with each other, and the state of light and dark tightness.

Wu Tao's face did not change, and he looked directly at the other party's blue eyes, "Average, at least compared to Mr. Agnelli's noble bloodline, it is really average." ”

"Andrea Agnelli, an Italian nobleman. The other party introduced himself, but he didn't mean to reach out and shake it.

Wu Tao said with a clear meaning: "Wu Tao, a Chinese civilian. ”

Andrea frowned suddenly, "I'm sorry, as a civilian, it's hard for me to imagine that Mr. Wu would be able to represent Huaxia to participate in this ASML company's bidding meeting. Or is Mr. Wu hiding something?"

Wu Tao's heart turned, and he dared to love this guy for thinking that he was a red capitalist, and the official business of the Huaxia government was made.

Shaking his head in disappointment, "Maybe Andrea, you were wrong in the first place. Believe it or not, I only speak for myself, and all my actions represent only myself and my inheritance. ”

"I'm sorry, I can't believe it. Andrea unabashedly spread her hands, shrugged her shoulders and shook her head.

So Wu Tao didn't say a word, turned around and left.

It wasn't until we reached the door of the parking lot that Andrea's call came from behind, "Wait, Mr. Wu, we haven't finished talking yet, have we?"

"Andrea, if you have a preconceived idea that I am a comprador capitalist of the Chinese government, then there is really no need for us to talk further. Isn't it?" Wu Tao's attitude was also very distinct, as if he didn't care at all about this review and cooperation.

"OK!" Andrea had lost the initiative, but still refuted himself: "But it is really incomprehensible that Mr. Wu, as a private capitalist, has entered the semiconductor industry with such fanfare." It's not an easy thing to do after all!"

Wu Tao said bluntly: "The greater the risk, the greater the benefit." This is a very simple truth in the capital industry. I don't need me to remind you of that, do I?"

"Even so, we don't really need to take the risk of letting a company with a Chinese background take a stake in ASML. After a long detour, Andrea finally got to the point.

Wu Tao said expressionlessly: "I admit it, what you said makes sense. It seems that in Europe, which has experienced the first and second industrial revolutions, there are only conservatives left who have not moved forward. It's no wonder that the world has become American's. ”

“...... Of course, having said that, in addition to giving away the huge Huaxia market to others, or forcing Huaxia to use the power of the whole country to break through the key technologies of the semiconductor industry, it will not benefit your consortium at all. Relying on a few balls and clubs all day long, even if you play more tricks, how much money can you make?"

After speaking, Wu Tao smiled.

Andrea's face turned pale, "As long as we have been implementing a semiconductor technology blockade policy against Huaxia, how easy is it for Huaxia to break through this technology? At that time, no matter how big the Huaxia market is, it will still be just something in our pocket, isn't it?"

Wu Tao shook his head with a smile, "Never underestimate the potential of the Chinese people! Not to mention that now with me and my partners." You can not care about the huge interests of the Chinese market, but there are always people who care. Maybe it's Taiwan, or Dongying, or maybe it's Southeast Asia? Who knows?"

"Whether or not we achieve the result will not change the result on my side. Wu Tao continued firmly, "For me, everything is just a matter of time. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Andrea contemptuously and said, "But for the Agnelli Consortium, whether you can get rid of the situation of a vassal big consortium in your lifetime often depends on your humble choice......
