Chapter 610: Corrupt Imbecile Aristocrat
Such specifications are already very high, after a brief introduction by the Queen of England, she sat down elegantly and began to eat, during which there was not much communication between several people, which was also in the interests of the British royal family, and the voice of the voice was also very low, but the bad thing was that it may be less than a little nervous, and the tableware touched the plate during the meal, although the Queen did not say anything, but a minister on the side showed dissatisfaction.
When the dinner was over, several ministers shook hands with Lin Qi to say goodbye, but the minister ignored Xiao, so that Xiaoxiao's outstretched hand was awkwardly placed in the air, and the others didn't notice this detail, but Lin Qi saw it, Xiaoxiao's expression was a little frustrated, this time it was of great significance to him, the performance at the table was messed up, although he had been very careful in advance, but after all, such an occasion was the first time, and it was too dull when eating, which led to such a situation.
"We're leaving, and the Queen will take you on a tour of some royal landscapes, and I hope you have a good time. ”
James Chamberlain, the Minister of Manners, said that this was the person who embarrassed Xiao Xiao just now, and when he spoke, he did not focus on Lin Qi and Xiao Xiao, but just smiled and was about to leave, and there was a unique British arrogance on his face.
In fact, in the eyes of the British aristocracy, Lin Qi was an upstart. Even though Lin Qi has made a lot of innovations in the field of science and technology, he is still not looked down upon by these old aristocrats.
After all, these veteran aristocrats are still playing with bloodlines, etiquette and the like in their own circles. Even if you learn their way, you can't really fit into the aristocratic circles, because they always like to discuss the eighteen generations of their ancestors, as well as the old yellow calendar that they don't know many years ago.
And Mr. Lin is rich...... But his father, his grandfather, his grandfather's grandfather, did he have any noble blood?
"Wait a minute, I also have some things to do when I go to the UK this time, and I need your help with some things, which can save me some unnecessary trouble. Lin Qi stopped James.
James showed a little annoyed on his face, Britain has always maintained a contemptuous attitude towards these foreigners, as the vanguard of the invasion of China in history, the British satisfied their desires after smashing and looting, and they did not feel how shameful their actions were.
"James, don't be in a hurry to leave, Mr. Lin, after all, I invited a distinguished guest, he has a request, you listen to it first. ”
The Queen of England spoke, and today's new entrepreneurship is extremely large, whether it is in China or overseas, they all have a bunch of assets, and everywhere Lin Qi walks, they exude the fragrance of wealth.
Even the British royal family feels the need to maintain friendly relations with capital in order to bring some financial returns to the royal family. After all, the consumption of the royal family is not low, and relying on the money given by the government every year, as well as the benefits of investment dividends, may not make the royal family remain glamorous and decent forever.
Lin Qi nodded and said: "Yes, I came this time to prepare to invest in some projects in the UK, the next step of the new business, is to make efforts in mobile phones, and the world's top telecom operator Vodafone is a British company, I want to cooperate with Vodafone, but there is no contact in the past, I wonder if Mr. James can introduce it." ”
Hearing the investment, James's expression became a little richer, this money is mainly spent in England, although he doesn't look down on foreigners very much in his heart, but on the surface, he still has to get by, and sat down at the moment, and invited Lin Qi to take a seat, but he still didn't pay attention to the younger ones behind.
Lin Qi showed a hint of a smile, listening to James's chatter while enjoying the surrounding scenery for a long time, which made James show a little dissatisfaction from time to time.
James thought he was a gentleman, and he talked a lot about it, and when it came to the later days, even Lin Qi couldn't listen to it anymore.
As for Vodafone, even if he knows more than James, it is clear that the Minister of Manners does not care much about domestic businesses, Vodafone is a telecommunications operator headquartered in the United Kingdom, and it is developing extremely rapidly. By the 21st century, it had grown into one of the world's largest mobile communications network companies, with investments in 27 countries around the world. In another 14 countries, mobile phone networks are pooled with local mobile phone operators.
Vodafone was founded in 1984 as a division of the British company Lakauer Electronics specializing in mobile phones, and later gradually began to emerge because of its outstanding performance, and in 1985, this department was established as Vodafone Telecom. After that, Vodafone changed its strategy, specializing in high-quality high-tech, and achieved considerable development, in just 14 years, the second largest telecommunications company in the United Kingdom after British Telecom in terms of market capitalization, and carried out telecommunications business in 19 countries and regions.
How influential is Vodafone?
At the beginning, Huawei could only surround the cities in the countryside, and the domestic competition was once limited to ZTE, and it only did the third- and fourth-tier urban market with low interest rates. Later, when it went overseas to develop telecommunications business, it was also in developing countries at the beginning, winning with cost performance, but the European business has always hit a wall and is not trusted by European operators. Until, Vodafone unexpectedly handed over the order to Huawei. Huawei has made great efforts to complete Vodafone's order perfectly. Since then, not only has Vodafone begun to list Huawei as a supplier, but the European market has gradually opened its doors to Huawei. Then the European market sprung up, Huawei not only returned to China, surpassing all competitors, but also quickly became the world's largest telecom operator.
It is precisely for this reason that Lin Qi knows that in telecommunications equipment, mobile phones and network equipment, it is necessary to have a good relationship with operators. The current Vodafone cannot be compared with the future, but if we can establish a cooperative relationship with Vodafone now, in the future, we can save the development speed of domestic telecommunication equipment and mobile communication terminals.
It was not until the beginning of the 21st century that domestic telecommunications equipment began to turn over, from not entering the stream, to becoming first-class.
Because he didn't know much about Vodafone, there was no stock in his stomach when he introduced it, and James was sweating on his head, but the elegant minister still carefully took out his handkerchief, wiped off the sweat, and folded the handkerchief neatly, and the whole process was meticulous.
"I don't know if you're satisfied with my introduction?" James was full of confidence, and he quickly recalled in his heart, the etiquette just now can be described as very thoughtful, even the queen may not be able to find fault with him.
As for the introduction of dry goods, there are relatively few dry goods, because ...... As a nobleman...... He really doesn't know much about these commercial companies, because he never pays his own electricity, water and phone bills, and has professional housekeepers and servants at home to do these things.
Lin Qi said indifferently: "I'm not very satisfied, I originally planned to invest in a little equity in a company like Vodafone through the British government, and then carry out some business cooperation." But sadly, James doesn't seem to understand. ”
