Chapter 322: Generous Gifts (2)
James said: "No, you are wrong, such a work of art, measured by money, it is a stain on it, and it is also a stain on the duke, I am giving it to Duke Yao!"
Yao Yi looked at James in great surprise and said: "Give it to me, this is a bit incredible, you must know that His Royal Highness the Prince is now in a financial crisis, there is such a treasure, I think His Royal Highness's majesty is still there, His Royal Highness's strength is still there, give it to me, not only you can't stand it, even your people can't stand it emotionally, so, this gift is too heavy, I can't ask for it!"
Yao Yi knows very well in his heart that he can always have such a generous gift, so the reward that Prince James wants from Yao Yi is not only the value of 100 million pounds, but more, as the saying goes, eating people is short-mouthed, taking people short, once he accepts this generous gift, it means that in the negotiation, Yao Yi will be in an extremely passive situation, no matter what Prince James asks, Yao Yi is embarrassed to refuse, and even to some extent he can't refuse.
At this time, Yao Yi is not the moment to enjoy, although he now has a certain amount of funds, but is still in the primitive accumulation stage of capital, and is still in the foundation stage of entrepreneurship, he can not enjoy it at such a critical time, he still needs to keep a low profile, and must not show off his wealth, in that case, he will become the object of hatred of the world's rich, but also the object of hatred of the British people, after all, this car is the national pride of the British.
On the other hand, there is almost no chance for this classic car to show off on the street, and it was not born to be a car, but to be praised as a work of art, so this car has no value for Yao Yi for the time being, and Yao Yi still has the stage of collecting art.
Yao Yi's refusal surprised James, and he said in surprise: "Duke Yao, I gave it to you sincerely, and I have no other meaning!"
Yao Yi said: " I understand the affection of His Royal Highness the Prince, but this car is the pride of your nation, if they know that their prince gave their pride to a Chinese, a Chinese who was once extremely despised by them, then, they will not be able to accept such a reality, for His Highness, it is also a blow to honor, His Royal Highness's reputation in the United Kingdom will be seriously affected, this is the first one I can't accept, this second unacceptable is that it is your eighteenth birthday gift, such a valuable thing, such a commemorative thing, how can you give it away casually, if you really gave him to me, then, the honor of your British royal family is declining all over the world, these two reasons are unacceptable to me, and I am also thinking about His Highness, but also for the sake of our future business!"
James was surprised when he heard Yao Yi's explanation, he didn't think about it so much, plus this car has been kept secret by him, and few people in the outside world know about it, so he chose to give it away for the sake of the business in front of him, in order to express his emotions to Yao Yi, and in order to be able to smoothly sign an agreement with Yao Yi in favor of him.
James heard Yao Yi's explanation, can he continue to give it away, the entourage around him can all listen to it, once the news is transmitted back to China, this matter is not a joke.
James said: "Well, I originally wanted Duke Yao to be happy, and I wanted to make the question a little simpler, in that case, I will take back this car, but when we meet next time, I will give you another beautiful gift, and you will definitely like it too!"
Yao Yi readily agreed, and said with a smile: "When the time comes, I must, and I will give you a generous gift, in our China, this is called coming and not being rude, hehe!"
When James gave Yao Yi a gift again, he would definitely dare to accept it, because by that time, the things that should be discussed have basically been decided, and the 'exchange' of gifts between the two parties involves not only the relationship of interests, but also friendship.
Yao Yi said: "Let's go, let's go into the house and have a good chat, it's been more than a month, we should have a good talk!"
James sent someone to put away the Rolls-Royce!!Yinmei and transported it back to his 'private' plane at the same time, and then went to the luxurious private room in the hotel with Yao Yi, who had already prepared a banquet for him.
During the banquet, Yao Yi said: "Now, I have basically done the work in Egypt, the merger of Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton has been completed, and your shares in BHP Billiton have helped me a lot!"
James said with a smile: "Duke Yao has done things, but it is really resolute, let me deeply admire, in fact, I should thank Duke Yao, the restructuring of these two major mining companies, so that the value of my remaining shares has doubled, I believe that in the future, following Duke Yao to do business, it will definitely be able to make a lot of money, and can realize my business dreams, restore the huge commercial trade of my British Empire!"
Yao Yi said with a smile: "These shouldn't be difficult, there is a lot of money in this world, and everyone earns money together, don't you say!"
James said: "Since Duke Yao said so, then I will explain to the plate, after more than a month of running, I have basically completed the task according to Duke Yao's requirements, but there is a little problem in this!"
Yao Yi said: "What's the problem, is it your British or somewhere else!"
James said: "We have no problem in the UK, and I have also brought you two things, one is the super helicopter project, this super helicopter has a take-off weight that far exceeds the Mi-26 heavy transport helicopter, and the other is the super large jet transport project, its take-off weight is up to 360 tons, if built, it will be the world's largest super transport aircraft, a bit of a pity, just a semi-finished product, it needs further investment!"
Yao Yi said with a smile: "These are no problems, the core of this aircraft lies in the aero engine, whether it is a helicopter project or a jet project, the most important thing is engine technology, as long as our engines are strong enough, these planes are not a problem, is the trouble you are talking about!"
James said: "This is not a trouble, I brought these two projects to Duke Yao, this is their information, the technical leaders of these two projects are also on standby, and these two projects can be used at any time, as for whether they are started or not, it depends on Duke Yao, so, these problems are not problems, everything is in the hands of Duke Yao, but some problems are a more difficult and troublesome matter, that is the real trouble, and it is a not big but difficult trouble!"
Yao Yi guessed in his heart, how big a trouble this trouble will be, I have encountered a lot of trouble, can't I solve this trouble?
