Chapter 611: Protecting the Short

This time, Lin Qi directly called the surname and did not follow the etiquette to add the word sir.

It's not that Lin Qi protects his shortcomings, even in the British royal family, which has extremely strict etiquette requirements, Xiao Xiao's negligence can be forgiven, Xiao Xiao has not experienced such a scene, if James only shows a little dissatisfaction, Lin Qi does not care, after all, he still has some respect for this old royal family.

But his later behavior was to deliberately make things difficult, especially when he was rejected when he took the initiative to shake hands, which was very impolite.

After dealing with these foreign devils for a long time, Lin Qi naturally knows what James means, this kind of arrogance is imprinted in his bones and will not change, but he is not a generous person, the person he brought was originally full of expectations, but after being hit by James, he was obviously very depressed.

For the three rogue countries of Britain, France and the United States, Lin Qi has no good impression in the first place, and relying on his status as a new entrepreneur now, he should not be treated so rudely by anyone.

"Excuse me, what did you say?"

James was obviously stunned for a moment, he was ready to listen to Lin Qi's compliments, especially his almost textbook etiquette just now, he was repeatedly praised by the queen, and he also appeared in many British newspapers and magazines, Lin Qi's words really surprised him.

"The most important corporate culture of New Venture Group is the care for employees, and external cooperation also requires the other party to respect our employees. Your actions just now not only offended my friend, but also the entire new startup. And, in terms of business capabilities, you can't, James, you don't know the details of the company you need to introduce, but you proudly claim that you know that not only does the information you introduce less than we already know, but a lot of it is wrong. We came with good faith and were warmly received by the Queen, which is why we wanted to invest some in the UK. However, Mr. James's attitude makes me think that I should be more cautious about investing in the UK. ”

Lin Qi is unhurried, he can't talk about this set of red tape, after all, the cultural background is different, and the British royal family that is supported really has nothing to do, and he is purely to suppress the arrogance of some of this arrogant minister, in order to breathe a sigh of relief.

The courteous and thoughtful minister of etiquette was completely stunned, and for a moment he was speechless, and he had never met such a guest in his career.

But when he heard Lin Qi mention investment, James also felt a sigh in his heart, the meaning was obvious enough, he was still happy just now, and in the blink of an eye, a large basin of cold water was splashed down.

"Mr. Lin Qi, I think you misunderstood, I didn't mean that......" Although James is arrogant, he also knows the weight of Lin Qi in his heart, no matter in the eyes of the British, Lin Qi is a big boss or a rich man, but obviously he can't be offended at this time.

"I am not mistaken, Mr. James, my friend has been standing in the back for a long time, and I think I can go and say goodbye to the Queen now. ”

Lin Qi smiled, put on his coat, and walked straight past James and walked towards the queen in the back.

While the two were talking, the queen took a group of envoys to drink evening tea in the back, and she didn't notice the small dispute here, and when she saw Lin Qi wearing a coat, she couldn't help but show a little surprise.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your hospitality, it is a great honour for me to have a very pleasant conversation with Chancellor James, and I will not bother the Queen today. ”

Lin Qi said, made a very standard half-body salute, kissed the queen's hand, and then left with Xiao.

……

"Mr. Lin, I'm embarrassed......" On the way out, he was less sullen and had a little self-blame on his face, these were all etiquette that he had practiced many times before, but there was still a mistake.

Lin Qi smiled and patted Xiao's shoulder, and said: "It's not your fault, don't you think the British royal family is too rigid, if it is us Chinese, even if others offend their own etiquette, there are people who don't know it, they can't put down the arrogant shelf, but you are my new entrepreneurial employee, James will pay for his arrogance." ”

Xiao raised his head suddenly, a little flattered, he tried to say something thanks, but finally pressed back, he knew that Mr. Lin was not a good start, and the reason why he saved the face of the royal family was purely to give him a head.

"Mr. Lin, even if one day the new business goes bankrupt, I will follow you if you go to the street to ask for food!"

is less than arrogant, the haze in my heart is swept away, there is Mr. Lin here, what bullshit royal family, to hell with it.

Lin Qi stumbled, almost fell to the ground directly, glanced at Xiao meaningfully, and said with a wry smile: "I still hope that the new business can flourish and not get mixed up to the point of begging." ”

Xiao scratched his head a little embarrassedly and smiled awkwardly, and the heaviness of the royal trip disappeared into the laughter of the two.

……

After Lin Qi left, the queen called James to the front and held him accountable.

Originally, it was discussed to pull some investment from Lin Qi to stimulate the sluggish economy of Britain in recent years, and at the same time, the royal family also wanted to share the sweetness from it, but as a result, things were messed up before they even started.

The queen was inevitably a little displeased, feeling that her subordinates had messed things up.

"Your Majesty, this Chinese is so arrogant that he even accuses me of inadequate etiquette, and I dare say that there is no country in the world that pays more attention to etiquette than the British royal family. ”

James is very unconvinced, ready to let the queen call the shots for him, about the movements of the royal family, every day a group of reporters take pictures and record, on the one hand, in order to maintain the popularity of the royal family, and to expand the influence of the royal family to a certain extent, it is unfortunate that Lin Qi was invited to dinner by the queen has been publicized, and there must be follow-up reports. If the invited guests leave in a bad mood, it will inevitably affect the image of the royal family.

But James relied on his status as the Minister of Ceremonies, felt that his weight was still very heavy, and he was also the queen's confidant, the more he talked, the more excited he became, and his arrogance couldn't help but be a little grander.

"Don't mention this matter for the time being, as for the report, just follow the convention, don't mention this matter, let's take a look at Lin's actions first. Another minister proposed, not intending to ignore Lin Qi.

The reason is very simple, this is the British royal family, and when you come here, you have to abide by the etiquette of the royal family, and in their hearts, Lin Qi is not qualified to show the British royal family. Although the royal family does not represent the government, many procedures in Britain still require the approval of the aristocracy, and the incomplete government holds power. And the royal family is the core of these nobles, even if the president of the United States has dinner with the queen, he does not dare to disrespect the royal family. And how can Lin Qi ask him to come over, he has already given enough face, and he dares to show them these old nobles?
