Chapter 1590: Private Visit
While the two families were chatting, Li Mu had been thinking about Zhao Xianliang's advice to him.
In the name of a private person, inviting Prince William to China is indeed a very ingenious operation, if the Windsor family agrees to let William come over, it is equivalent to letting William visit China in disguise.
Although the prince is not an actual government official, in the eyes of the people, he largely represents the government of his own country, and it is not as absolute as the identity attribute of a government official.
Inviting William over will not, in principle, rise to the level of the government, nor will it rise to the level of diplomacy, but in the hearts of the people of the two countries, it is better than diplomacy instead of diplomacy, and this means of operation is more free.
If William comes, he will be able to gain a lot of recognition from the Chinese people, but also a lot of praise from the British people, for Makino Technology, this is definitely a good opportunity to enhance their image in the hearts of the European people, as long as they cooperate tacitly, everyone takes what they need, and win-win cooperation.
Before the meal, Li Mu personally made a phone call to William, and on the phone, he sent him an invitation to visit Makino Technology.
After William received Li Mu's invitation, he was extremely excited.
In the past few days since Li Mu left the UK, his gains have become bigger and bigger, his Titter fans have grown, and his questions about education have also attracted more and more people's attention.
Now, William's popularity in Britain is growing, and it has even increased the public's affection for the royal family.
In many cases, the royal family will be questioned by no successor, and if the descendants of the royal family are too mediocre, the public's interest and love for the royal family will become less and less, but the reverse is also true, if the descendants of the royal family have outstanding talents, the people will renew hope in the royal family, thinking that it is a blessing for the royal family, or even a blessing for the country.
William is precisely the rookie of the royal family in the second case.
Not only William himself, but even the queen and the entire royal family hope that he can continue to deepen contact and cooperation with Li Mu, but not long after Li Mu left the UK, they are not good at letting William contact Li Mu immediately, and even ask Li Mu to plan the next stage of development direction for William.
Just when he was holding back his impulse, Li Mu's phone called.
William said to Li Mu on the phone: "Mr. Li, I am personally very willing to go to Huaxia to learn more from Your Excellency, but I don't know when it is more convenient for you?"
Li Mu said: "I will go back to Yanjing in two days, and the time after returning to Yanjing is very convenient, but you had better do it as soon as possible, and don't delay too long." ”
William immediately said: "Then I will go and discuss it with the rest of the family, and confirm the time with Your Excellency after setting the time." ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "No problem, you can communicate with Prince Charles, or Her Majesty the Queen, and see how to choose the fastest time node, this trip can't be too short, at least five days." ”
"I see!" William blurted out, "Then I'll go and communicate with my father and the queen." ”
"Okay, I'll wait for your news. ”
Li Mu hung up the phone and enjoyed dinner with his parents, godsister Li Ziwei, and Zhao Ziqiu's family of three, while Prince William, who was far away in the United Kingdom, hurried back to Windsor Castle like crazy, and his father and grandmother were at Windsor Castle at the moment.
The queen is personally walking several corgis in the green area of the castle, all of which are descendants of a corgi she raised when she was a teenager.
The eldest son, Charles, trotted out of the castle, stopped in front of the queen, gasped and said, "Mom, William came back, saying that Li Mu called him just now. ”
"Oh?" the queen suddenly became excited, and asked him, "Li Mu called William and said something?"
Charles said: "Li Mu privately invited William to visit Makino Technology and his Taobao website. ”
The queen said excitedly, "Oh, this is a great thing!
Charles smiled and said, "Not yet, it's not like I want to wait for you to go over and discuss it." ”
The queen nodded and said, "If you want to set the itinerary, you must also set the publicity strategy, and even what gifts you want to prepare for Li Mu in Huaxia, you must think about it carefully." ”
Charles agreed, "That's what I mean, so I'll have to ask you to call the shots." ”
The queen said happily: "Li Mu is willing to be tied up with William, this is really good, I used to be faintly worried that with Li Mu's size and ability, he may not be willing to play with our Windsor family." ”
What the queen said is not wrong, under normal circumstances, the entire British Internet market is not a very important thing for Li Mu, so the weight of the British royal family in his eyes may not be heavy enough.
In this case, Li Mu is also willing to play with William, which will indeed make the Windsor family have a kind of climbing mentality.
Moreover, they are now relying on their own ability, and they are completely unable to push William to a new level and height, and the biggest reliance at the moment is Li Mu.
The Queen returned to the castle with Charles, where William and other important members of the family were already waiting.
As soon as she entered her living room, the queen couldn't wait to ask William: "Tell me quickly, what did Li Mu say on the phone?"
William hurriedly repeated exactly what Li Mu said on the phone, and the queen nodded with satisfaction after hearing it, and instructed: "This is an excellent opportunity, although Li Mu invited you in a private name, but this invitation will bring you a strong empowerment at the political level, which is especially important for members of the royal family." ”
Generally speaking, members of the royal family can be soldiers and civil servants, but they cannot be actual executives of the real power department, so although the royal family wants to increase their political chips, no matter how they add it, they basically can't escape the fate of the mascot.
However, if William can successfully improve his political empowerment through his own operations, then it is natural that he will have bargaining chips with parliament in the future, which is very important.
William opened his mouth and asked the queen, "Grandmother, what do you think is appropriate for me to leave later?"
"As soon as possible!" said the Queen, "There is an idiom in China that calls striking while the iron is hot, and you must keep up with this momentum in order to achieve the greatest achievement." ”
After that, the queen said to Prince Charles: "You go and arrange the plane, it is best to leave in two days and arrive in three days, but the specific time still needs to communicate with Li Mu, so as not to see William when he arrives in Yanjing." ”
Charles nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away." ”
At this time, the queen said: "In addition to the plane, you have to think carefully about what gift to give Li Mu." ”
Charles said: "Why don't we select the Chinese cultural relics from the royal collection, select one or two from them, and give them to Li Mu as gifts?"
The queen said approvingly: "Chinese cultural relics are okay, sincerity is enough, and value is enough, but I always feel that this is not enough, see if there is anything closer to life and more human feelings?"
William on the side said: "Otherwise, let's fight for some honorary titles for Li Mu, many entrepreneurs attach great importance to this." ”
The queen shook her head lightly and said, "The honorary title is only meaningful to those who really think it is valuable, and for Li Mu, I don't think it means much, and we have already awarded him GBE, which is already the highest level of the honorary title we can award." ”
William nodded lightly, what the queen said was right, if Li Mu is awarded an honor or medal now, Li Mu will definitely look down on it, and he will not take it seriously.
At this moment, the queen suddenly had an idea and blurted out: "William, this time you go to Huaxia and bring a corgi to Li Mu, it just so happens that the litter of puppies born by Susan is almost two months old, choose one with the best appearance and the best personality to give to Li Mu." ”
Charles couldn't help but ask, "Would you give a corgi?"
The queen smiled slightly and said, "There is nothing to be reluctant to, sending a royal self-bred puppy to Li Mu can be regarded as giving Li Mu a different explanation." This is unprecedented. ”
Charles nodded lightly and said, "Then leave this matter to me to arrange."
"Go ahead. ”
……
Li Mu didn't stay in Hangzhou for long.
On the one hand, his parents don't have much time, they can only stay in Hangzhou for two days at most, on the other hand, he himself is in a hurry to go back to promote other work, and in Zhao Ziqiu's house, he and her parents are there, and the two don't dare to make any affectionate moves, and Zhao Ziqiu doesn't dare to sneak into Li Mu's room at night, this feeling is somewhat tormenting.
After accompanying his parents to live in Hangzhou for two days, West Lake and other scenic spots, Li Mu's parents couldn't sit still.
Li's mother was worried about going back to carry out the next stage of business, and Li Mu was thinking about going back to Yanjing to engage in her own business, so Li Mu took her parents to say goodbye to Zhao Xianliang and Xie Yun.
Before leaving, Li Mu made an "application" to Xie Yun, hoping that she could let Zhao Ziqiu go with him as soon as possible, but fortunately, Xie Yun embarrassed Li Mu and gave him plenty of choice and power.
Li Mu's parents also boarded Li Mubao's business plane, which took off from Hangzhou and flew a short distance to land at Jinling Airport.
Li's father and Li's mother notified their driver in advance, and the driver came very timely and quickly took the old couple who got off the plane back to Haizhou.
The plane continued to fly from Haizhou to Yanjing, Zhao Ziqiu sat next to Li Mu and asked him in a low voice: "I'll go to Ziyun Villa with you tonight, the school hasn't opened yet, and the dormitory is not open." ”
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Don't talk about tonight, it's no problem at any time." ”
