The room that Wu Qian looked at was unremarkable, with an open design and no door, only an arched pass, and like many of the rooms of the Élysée Palace, decorated with crystal chandeliers and elaborate frescoes.

The point is not in the decorations, but in the place where the gold carving behind the chandelier looks like a wall but is actually a large door.

Wu Qian looked at the place not elsewhere, it was the gate to the core area of the entire Elysée Palace, if the Elysee Palace was compared to the heart of France, then the place where the golden carved door led was the heart of the heart.

Behind the carved golden door, through a secret passageway, there is finally a basement known as Cupid, which is made of sandwich steel plates and is surrounded by concrete walls up to three meters thick.

In Cupid's basement, Mr. Mark can contact the Ministry of Defense Strategy at any time, and at the same time, France's nuclear command center is also arranged in Cupid's basement.

Coincidentally, just as Wu Qian looked at the golden gate, the gate slowly opened to the side, and three men in suits walked out of the gate.

Whether the basement is really as it is said to be remains to be seen, but at least it proves that there is something else inside the wall.

Wu Qian naturally stopped, and everyone around him also stopped.

Among the three people who came out of the door, there was naturally Mr. Mark, and among the other two, there was actually a face that Wu Qian knew.

When dealing with the assassination in front of the Louvre, Minister Pamel, whom Wu had met before, was also among them.

There was also one person who was supposed to have an official position similar to that of Pamel, and I think they were meeting in Cupid's basement before they came.

The two sides glanced at each other, Mr. Mark said a few words to the two people beside him, patted their arms, and then raised his hand to signal, it seemed that the two of them left first.

When Pamel saw Wu Qian appear in the Elysee Palace, his face was as usual, and he nodded and smiled at Wu Qian very naturally, and then left through another door with another person.

Mr. Mark watched as Pamel and the two left, then turned and walked to Wu Qian's side.

Wu Qian naturally wouldn't wait for Mr. Mark to come over and shake hands with him, Mr. Mark's status is not comparable to Ol's Hanwen, and basic etiquette still has to be there.

When he saw that Pamel and the others were gone, he walked up to Mr. Mark in the same way.

The two looked at each other, and they both said in their hearts, so young......

Needless to say, at the age of twenty-five, if you put it half a year ago, your face is still childish.

And Mr. Marc, who has just passed his first year, can be described as a fairly young player in his circle, so much so that he has become the youngest Mr. No. 1 in the history of France.

The two sides greeted each other, shook hands warmly, and greeted each other.

In the inner courtyard of the Elysée Palace, the people next to Pamel asked, "Pamel, you seem to know that young man just now, who is he, and why did Mr. Mark invite him to dinner?"

Pamel puffed out his eyes, and seeing that his expression seemed to have a bad relationship with the person next to him, he said reluctantly: "Haven't you already investigated the person who bought the S500 air defense missile system from Mao Ziguo?"

The questioner was obviously surprised, although Pamel didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning of his words was obvious enough, he actually knew Wu Qian, but unfortunately he didn't expect the other party to appear in the Elysee Palace so soon, which surprised him very much.

He ...... So what did Mr. Mark invite him for?"

Pamel spread his hands and said, "Do you need to report to me what Mr. Mark wants to do?" ”

The questioner frowned and nodded, but when he wanted to ask Pamel something, Pamel had already gotten into the car one step ahead of time, and he left the Elysee Palace angrily.

In the Elysee Palace, Wu Qian and Mr. Mark met, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Mr. Mark can become a top political figure, and he naturally has a very high ability in terms of communication skills, although the two met for the first time, but under Mr. Mark's few words, the strange atmosphere was instantly dissolved.

"Mr. Wu, don't be restrained, inviting you to dinner is my private act, not to mention ......" As he spoke, Mr. Mark raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, and said with a smile: "Haha, I'm already off work at this time, come, Mr. Wu, I'm hungry, what about you?"

Mr. Mark felt that Wu Qian was very restrained, and his speech and demeanor were too formal, which made him feel like he was meeting with the dignitaries of other countries, and what he wanted was definitely not this effect, and in order to achieve the effect he wanted for a while, he tried his best to dissolve this atmosphere.

In the ornate banquet hall, four staff members shuttle around the table.

Sure enough, as Wu Qian had guessed, the first lady unsurprisingly stayed with Mr. Mark, and the three of them sat around the table in an equilateral acute triangle position, and the rest arranged for the rest to eat in the restaurant next door.

Mrs. Mark did not wear a formal dress, but a simple lady's suit, which, like Mr. Mark, was as natural as if she had just left work.

If it's just two men sitting together for dinner, it's efficient to talk about things, but it's always too monotonous, but if a lady joins, the atmosphere is noticeably different.

Wu Qian took out the gift prepared by Yao Xinlu in advance and gave it to Mark and his wife.

The delicate silk handkerchiefs on both sides are embroidered with the landscape scenery of the Celestial Empire, deducing the rich characteristic culture of the Celestial Empire.

There is nothing to be faulty about the gift, it is not devoid of etiquette, it is not too luxurious, and it just shows the cultural elements of your own country.

It was evident that Mrs. Mark was very fond of this handkerchief.

"Mr. Wu, I like this handkerchief so much, I don't know if you want me to carry it or put it in the bedroom as a decoration, if it is the former, I am afraid I will be very reluctant. ”

Wu Qian said with a smile: "I'm very happy that Mrs. Mark can like this gift, whether it is to provide Mrs. with daily convenience or visual enjoyment, it is its honor." ”

Wu Qian was not idle to teach the first lady how to do it, and he pushed the problem back with a Tai Chi punch.

This answer made Mr. Mark's evaluation of Wu Qian rise a little again, of course, Mr. Mark has never despised Wu Qian, can he control a country in the third world from behind, can this be something that ordinary people can do?

Mrs. Mark thought about it seriously after hearing Wu Qian's words, and then divided the handkerchief with Mr. Mark in front of Wu Qian, and then folded the handkerchief that belonged to her, put it in her pocket, and then carefully patted it outside the pocket.

This action appeared in a woman who was nearly seventy years old, but it did not appear pretentious, but rather a little naïve.

The small movements reflect the fact that this woman is not simple in dealing with others.

Putting it on the shelf and carrying it with you can clearly reflect the difference in the level of attention.

Then the dinner began.

Needless to say, the arrangement of the dinner dishes is extremely elegant, which means that there is no so-called Michelin rating, otherwise it will definitely be a star-level Michelin meal.

The meal lasted for an hour, during which the two sides did not talk about business, but simply chatted about some painless topics.

Wu Qian talked about some interesting things he encountered in France, talked about what he saw and heard at Airbus, and snails and wine in Burgundy.

Mr. Mark was concerned about the current situation at Manchester United and spoke in a joking tone about the loss of one of Saint-Germain's main players.

Mrs. Mark is also very talkative, and she threw out topics at the right time to intersperse the chat between Wu Qian and Mr. Mark, which made the whole conversation process obviously a lot easier, and the laughter echoed in the banquet hall.

Until the end of the dinner, Mr. Mark put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth with a silk napkin, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu, I have heard a little about your development in Solan. ”

Finally getting down to business, Wu Qian could clearly see that the smile on Mr. Mark's face was slightly different from before, and it became a little more formal.

He also put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth, and felt a little, it was very rare, he was actually full, to tell the truth, it was not easy to eat a full meal at this kind of banquet.

"I invested in a few projects in a small way, but I didn't expect it to reach Mr. Mark's ears, I was a little surprised, haha. ”

Wu Qiandao.

When Mr. Mark saw that his wife had finished eating, he motioned to the servant to clean up, and at the same time said to Wu Qian: "Mr. Wu is too modest, at least five billion euros of investment, a city has risen from the ground, this cannot be called a small fight." ”

If Wu Qian was talking to an entrepreneur or businessman like Rapo Erkann or Mr. Wang, it is indeed too modest to say that "petty fights" is suspected of hypocrisy, but the other party is a big man who holds control of nuclear weapons, which cannot be regarded as modesty, and can be regarded as telling the truth.

"More than 5 billion, the initial investment has exceeded 10 billion euros, and I am afraid that some additional funds will be needed in the medium term to complete the construction. ”

Wu Qian corrected Mr. Mark's words and gave the other party an accurate message.

Mr. Mark chuckled inexplicably in his heart, he knew that he had misunderstood Wu Qian, and the other party was really not modest.

Of course, Wu Qian is not modest, not only will he not be modest, but he also has to show his muscles as much as possible, which is to increase his own bargaining chips for the next conversation, God knows what problems the other party is going to have.

Modesty is a virtue that belongs to the East, and many times it is not easy to eat in the West, as long as it is not arrogant.

At this time, the maid walked into the banquet hall with a tea break and poured a cup of exquisite tea for several people.

"Mr. Wu, you must have drunk their black tea in England for a long time, in fact, the first tea arrived in Paris in 1636, twenty-two years before England, come and taste French tea. ”

Mr. Mark raised his hand and asked Wu to take a cup.

The tea culture in France originated mainly from the Celestial Empire, and Mr. Marc's self-confidence is very commendable.

Wu Qian took a sip of the teacup, bitter and sweet, which made his taste buds extremely uncomfortable, as if a spoonful of honey was added to the bitter tea.

Bite.

Wu Qian put down the teacup and said, "The taste is very unique, I haven't drunk this kind of tea in the Celestial Empire, it's very interesting." ”

Mr. Mark didn't say anything more about tea, he said: "Mr. Wu, the matter you entrusted to an agent of our country has been negotiated for you before, I want to ask, after Mr. Wu acquires the new energy production line of the Logo Tielong Group, will the current factory site be changed?"

Wu Qian nodded, he really planned this matter in his heart, and there was nothing to hide, so he said: "There are indeed arrangements for this, but even if the factory is moved, at least it will be ...... After the UN General Assembly, it may take about a year. ”

Solan's development will require the creation of nearly hundreds of thousands of jobs, and Wu Qian will certainly do everything he can to meet this demand, but all this will not be implemented until Solan becomes a sovereign state, and labor training will take time.

Mr. Mark nodded secretly in his heart, his estimate was not wrong at all, it is understandable that Wu Qian wants to create jobs for Solan, but he also has to think about France, which is why he invited Wu Qian to dinner today.

"Mr. Wu, to tell you the truth, if your acquisition is successful, I sincerely hope that the new energy production line of the Logo Tielong Group will remain in our country, the problem is a little difficult to explain, France really cares about at least 12,000 jobs. ”

Mr. Mark said bluntly.

Taxes, jobs, who can not care, it's not easy to be the number one, the yellow vest comes every three or five times, and I can't stand it.

12,000 is only the most direct embodiment, just factory workers, other consumption and labor driven by the factory are not counted at all, in the simplest terms, employees have to consume, vehicle parts have to be transported, these are GDP.

Wu Qian shook his hands in his heart, the problem is coming, it is not the same as the United States, and then he will be stumbling......

Mr. Mark saw that Wu Qian was thinking, so he said, "Mr. Wu, I know that you are encountering some problems now......

Hearing this, although Wu Qian's face did not change, he said in his heart: It's here!

Mr. Mark continued: "I will not create problems for you, and I will never change the problems that you and Mr. Kuretta have helped me solve, and the vote of the United Nations will never change." ”

"Mr. Wu, I understand your investment style, you don't owe even a penny to the bank in the UK, you are an entrepreneur with excellent reputation, if France gives you a loan of three billion euros at a very low interest rate, and the repayment period is ten years, can there be room for negotiation in the matter of the factory?"

Previously, after the Fiat Group acquired 50 percent of the shares of the Logo Tielong Group, it immediately gave a plan to lay off 10,000 employees, while also reducing the number of engineers by one-third.

This has put a lot of pressure on the top of some trade unions in France.

If Wu Qian buys the new energy production line and moves the factory, it will cause at least 10,000 people to lose their jobs, which is really miserable......

To tell the truth, Mr. Mark did not make things difficult on the Solan issue, which surprised Wu Qian, but the "preferential policies" given were also not very attractive to Wu Qian, but if Mr. Mark's request was met, it was also a very good choice to gain a friendly relationship.
