Chapter 511 [Licking Dog Givenchy]
In a castle in London, several members of the Rothschild family are partying.
The Rothschild family, also known as the Ross ~ Child family, was once the sixth largest empire in Europe, but it was severely hit in two world wars and targeted by the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family, so it is no longer as powerful as it was at its peak.
However, after all, the Rothschild family is the former 'family boss', that is, the Rockefeller and Morgan families are their younger brothers, and the Rothschild family quickly recovered its vitality after World War II, and it has gradually regained some strength over the years.
Today's Rothschild family, based in the United Kingdom, has developed in Canada, Australia, Europe, Hong Kong, Japan and other regions; In particular, in the UK, he is an important advisor to the government on privatization and has been involved in many companies.
Facts have proved that as long as a family has people, spirit, and unity, no matter how big the hurdle is, it can climb again.
Jacob Rothschild is the fourth lord of the Ross~Child family, a title that may not be much in the London nobility; But with the economic strength of the Rothesschild family, it is enough for them to become the top family in London.
Of course, the Rothschild family must also be wary of the strength of the ancient British family, as the so-called both cooperation and calculation.
"I heard that the Chinese Lin Zhichao recently came to London and had a private meeting with the Thatchers?" Jacob Rothschild said with concern.
His cousin, Evelyn Rothschild, said: "Yes! Lin Zhichao has always been a supporter of Thatcher, and his lover Audrey Hepburn is a good sister of Thatcher, so it is understandable that the relationship is very close. ”
Jacob frowned and said, "The Lin Zhichao family, a family that has risen in the past forty years, deserves our attention. This family is now dressed in white skins in the United States, under the name of the 'Hepburn family', and has entered the media field, continuously controlling Disney and ABC broadcasting, and its influence is increasing day by day. ”
Several members of the Rothier family couldn't help but show indignation on their faces. Because the Rothschild family can't set foot in the United States, as long as they do, they will be targeted by the Rockefellers and the Morgan family.
And the Jewish consortium in the United States, although it has also developed over the years, after all, they are also wary of the Rothel family, after all, the former Rothchild family is really terrifying.
The relationship between Lin Zhichao and Audrey Hepburn is not too much of a secret in the upper echelons of Europe and the United States, and the so-called 'Hepburn family' is just a white man's skin, but it is actually a family established by a yellow race. But now, this family has penetrated into the media field in the United States and has become an important force in the industry.
This is due to Audrey Hepburn's own influence and close ties to politics.
As for Lin Ruidong's marriage to the princess of the Rockefeller family, it also helped to a certain extent, but it was not the two most important factors.
Evelyn Rothschild then said: "This Chinese family is indeed ambitious, and now that it is in the UK, we must also be wary. It is said that Lin Zhichao has been shorting international crude oil recently, should we teach him a lesson in the London market! Let him understand that he should do business honestly, and don't think about participating in finance. ”
Cheung Kong Group's short selling of crude oil in the UK did not hide too much, because it was a very normal investment.
Jacob Loshiel hesitated and said, "Why is he short oil?" Could it be that there is any news on the US side, I heard that he also has a very close relationship with the Reagan administration? ”
If they can't enter the United States, it means that there are not enough sources, which is already the shortcoming of the Rothschild family.
Evelyn Rothschild said confidently: "I don't think so! Although I don't know why he shorted crude oil, I think it is a normal investment to be bullish and bearish, but at present, crude oil futures have remained at $28 for 4 months, and the trend is very stable. Then he suddenly shorts, we only need to raise a few dollars, we can teach him a lesson! ”
This pull up must be a short-term pull-up, otherwise the Rothschild family would not be able to go against the market.
Jacob Rothschild said, "Evelyn, you can't think enough of you! You must know that Lin Zhichao's shorting of Bren Oil will definitely be related to many families in London, because everyone controls the North Sea oil fields, who wants oil prices to fall? Therefore, you can contact several families to collaborate on oil futures and teach this Hong Kong family a small lesson! ”
Originally, Cheung Kong Group's investment of $1 billion in crude oil futures ($100 million) was nothing, and who would target it under normal circumstances. However, who is called Lin Zhichao is very famous now, he is an industrialist, and now he wants to take the lead in the financial field, and it is strange that the Rothschild family does not want to crack down.
"Okay, I'll contact you right away!"
"Be clean and tidy and let others come out on top!"
"Well, I understand!"
In the London manor, Lin Zhichao and Audrey Hepburn went on vacation, and it was rare for the two to vacation together alone, so they cherished it. Although the two have been dating for 36 years, their relationship is still very good, even if there is less love, but the family affection must be stronger.
Today's two have two sons, three grandsons, and a granddaughter (Lin Ruidong's two sons and one daughter, and Lin Ruinan's harvest of one son last year), which can be regarded as a preliminary establishment of a family branch.
"Husband, what do you think of letting Audrey invest in the acquisition of Givenchy?" Audrey Hepburn took Lin Zhichao's arm and said lovingly.
Lin Zhichao said with some surprise: "Why did Givenchy sell it to you?" ”
Even after Audrey Hepburn quit the showbiz, she has always liked Givenchy's products, after all, there is a famous designer who designed it herself, and she loves beauty so much, so she naturally likes the Givenchy brand.
As for the relationship between men and women, Lin Zhichao is very confident, not to mention that nothing happened in his previous life, but in this life, under Lin Zhichao, a god-like man, it is impossible for Audrey Hepburn to fall in love with any man.
There is no need for Lin Zhichao to guess this, there are also two sons who report to him, of course, Lin Zhichao was also very confident and didn't think much about it.
Audrey Hepburn said: "Maybe there is something wrong with his finances, and I am so rich, isn't it normal to offer to sell it to me!" ”
When it comes to being rich, Audrey Hepburn can't help but feel a little proud.
Today, Sega has brought great wealth to Audrey Hepburn, and the annual profit of this entertainment game company has not been less than 500 million US dollars.
Lin Zhichao said: "It's not normal! Givenchy is also a French luxury brand, he does not sell to a French consortium, but sells you an American, then the French are afraid that they are uncomfortable. ”
Audrey Hepburn immediately teased her man: "Honey, you won't be jealous, will you?" Oh my God, I didn't expect that I would be able to make my husband jealous at this age, hehe! ”
Lin Zhichao's old face was not red, he just said lightly: "I feel sad for Givenchy!" ”
Audrey Hepburn was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Why are you sad for him?" ”
Lin Zhichao said: "Givenchy is so good to you, do you think that men and women have pure friendship?" ”
Audrey Hepburn said without hesitation: "Why not?" ”
Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "As a man, I definitely have the most right to speak, because if I don't like a girl, I won't be good to her at all. Therefore, there is no pure friendship between men and women. Your situation belongs, Givenchy likes you, but you only treat him as a friend, and he can't bear to confess it, so as not to be even a friend. ”
Such a big 'licking dog', Lin Zhichao really can't understand it, maybe this is the sensibility of 'art' people!
Audrey Hepburn was silent for a long time, and then said: "I never liked him, I didn't feel it at all." I appreciate his talent in the field of design and nothing else! After speaking, she looked at Lin Zhichao seriously.
Lin Zhichao said calmly: "Of course I believe in all this, so I think he is quite pitiful!" Of course, I won't give up my woman, so Givenchy still doesn't buy it. In the future, we can buy Italian brands such as Gucci and Prada. ”
Audrey Hepburn immediately said: "If we don't buy it, he will have to sell it to someone else in the future!" Otherwise, I'll take you to Paris to meet him, and he'll sell it to me, and I'll buy it. ”
The implication is that if one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, it is a normal business behavior.
Lin Zhichao frowned, he didn't care about this wealth at all, so he felt that it was better to avoid suspicion. However, he looked at Audrey Hepburn and found that this woman was a little nostalgic for this brand.
Although Audrey Hepburn is 56 years old this year, she is still a beautiful aristocratic young woman, at most she looks like a light mature woman, not even a mature woman. Therefore, she still loves beauty very, very much!
"Then meet us! Let him die that heart! ”
Audrey Hepburn was not angry at all, but felt sweet in her heart, she fell into Lin Zhichao's arms and said: "Husband, I have only been tempted by you in my life!" ”
Lin Zhichao is his woman's first love, everything is really good!
The next evening.
In a restaurant in Paris, Lin Zhichao met Bell de Givenchy for the first time, he must have been handsome when he was young, and of course he is handsome now.
When Bell de Givenchy saw Lin Zhichao, he already understood in his heart that Audrey Hepburn had two mixed-race sons, which everyone knows, but who is the father of the child, everyone only knows that he is a yellow race.
"Lin Zhichao, Hong Kong Chinese!" Lin Zhi introduced himself generously.
He didn't swear sovereignty, after all, he felt that Givenchy was quite pitiful, so he didn't hit others.
Bert de Givenchy held out his hand and said, "Bert de Givenchy, French." Mr. Lin, I know that you are the famous king of the world! ”
Lin Zhichao at his peak did have a very well-known reputation in the world, especially the size of his fleet in the early 70s, which was achieved by Bao Yugang in his previous life in the late 70s.
Lin Zhichao said politely: "I only have a few boats now!" Instead, the Givenchy brand is already a real luxury brand in the world. ”
In fact, although Givenchy is a luxury brand, its grade is still much lower than Chanel and LV, after all, luxury brands also have grades. The history of Givenchy is not as long as these brands.
Audrey Hepburn said, "Bell, this is my husband, the father of two children!" ”
Lin Zhichao obviously noticed that Bell de Givenchy's face changed, and then he forcibly said with a gloomy look: "I always thought that Mr. Lin was an irresponsible father and husband, it turns out that your relationship is so good!" ”
Lin Zhichao said: "We in Hong Kong only abolished the 'polygamy' system in 1971, so we are considered a legal husband and wife. But considering that Audrey is going to live in the West, otherwise she will be hurt, so we have not made it public. ”
If it is not made public, everyone will only think that Audrey Hepburn is a 'strong single mother' and a 'great woman', and think that Audrey Hepburn has been hurt and is weak, so everyone will naturally not target her, but support her.
Because of this, Audrey Hepburn has a very high status in the West, and even in the US presidential election, candidates hope to win women's votes from her.
Givenchy nodded and said, "Well, let's sit down!" ”
After a brief greeting, everyone sat down to eat together.
Audrey Hepburn was at the banquet, and she also told the story of Lin Zhichao, and her idea was to make Givenchy die (in fact, she didn't believe that Givenchy loved her).
But in Givenchy's heart, he had mixed feelings at this time, he didn't expect that Audrey Hecould have today's business status, and Lin Zhichao had always been silently supporting. He stubbornly believes that this is a manifestation of loving someone, and he will not lose unjustly.
After all, Audrey Hepburn is now among the top ten in the wealth list, the richest woman in the world, and even Lin Zhichao's wealth is not as good as (how is it possible), which fully shows that this Chinese loves Audrey Hepburn too much.
So, chatting and chatting, Givenchy said sincerely: "Audrey, I have some financial problems now, so I want to sell the Givenchy brand to you." You have always been a loyal customer of the Givenchy brand, and I hope to use your financial resources to make the Givenchy brand even more successful. Of course, I will continue to be the chief designer of the Givenchy brand! ”
Audrey Hepburn flashed a trace of 'greed', after all, this is the brand she likes, maybe the same value of wealth, she doesn't care at all, because he is rich enough, but for the Givenchy brand, she likes it very much, because women love beauty.
She looked at Lin Zhichao, meaning that everything is up to you.
At this scene, Givenchy felt a little bitter in his heart, and at today's meal, he found that Audrey was very attached to and admired Lin Zhichao, and her eyes were on this man.
Lin Zhichao said: "I don't interfere with your decision. But if Audrey invests in Givenchy, I can act as an advisor to build a huge fashion empire by continuing to acquire. After all, it is difficult for a single brand to achieve long-term performance. ”
The purpose of his words is to hope that Givenchy will think clearly, even if you sell your own brand, this brand will not be the most valuable luxury brand in the hands of Audrey Hepburn.
Unexpectedly, Givenchy didn't consider it at all!
Hearing Lin Zhichao's words, Audrey Hepburn's eyes lit up, and the fashion empire was very challenging. But since this man said it, he must be very sure of success.
Audrey Hepburn immediately said: "A little later that night, I sent my son to represent Audrey's investment to talk to you in detail with Bell." You can rest assured, we have been friends for many years, and the price must be easy to say! ”
Givenchy is a little bitter again, and he doesn't even have the idea of talking to himself in person?
Actually, Audrey Hepburn didn't think so, she just didn't want to talk to her friends directly about money, she just thought it was cheesy.
Of course, no matter what Givenchy thinks today, Audrey Hepburn will make it clear - there is only one man in her world, and that is Lin Zhichao. (End of chapter)
