money trouble

Chapter 418 Invitation?not see!

Just a few minutes before Wu Qian’s high-speed train arrived in Dijon, the French Wine Industry Association got the news from a slightly lagging channel that Romanee-Conti’s second largest shareholder, Takashimaya Co., Ltd., would sell its shares.

This is not a small matter for the French. The incident between Takashimaya and Le Hua caused a lot of trouble in the market. There are 100 million French who do not want to hand over part of the control of the top winery to the hands of the islanders.

The attitudes of the top and the bottom are often opposites. Although the top people are unwilling to allow foreign people to get involved in top wineries, they can only compromise for the sake of development and capital.

Moreover, the matter between Takashimaya Co., Ltd. and Lehua is an act between private companies, and the higher authorities can't interfere too much. They can only persuade the new shareholders not to damage the rights and interests of the winery.

"The Source of Happiness Investment Company? London? A football hooligan in a skirt bought the shares of Chateau Conti. My God, when did the British get so rich? They are not much better than the islanders..."

In the eyes of the French, the British look like that, it is not too real...

"No, it's not the British. It's the Chinese who are doing business with the islanders. Is this... is this a sign of Chinese capital entering Burgundy?"

"No, I need to send someone to talk, but it must not become an assembly line, otherwise the great Conti Winery will..."

The French Wine Industry Association maintains a positive, optimistic and supportive attitude towards China Capital’s entry into the French wine industry, but it still makes them a little uneasy to say that China Capital has occupied Château Kande.

Before Wu Qian walked out of the Dijon train station, he received a call from Fimiller.

"Boss, the French Wine Industry Association has sent you an invitation to meet with you and ask when you have time."

Fimiller pointed out the theme directly and concisely.

In the developed capitalist world, capital is the boss, and everything serves capital. Officials should be polite when they want to meet capitalists, because they eat what the capitalists give them.

After Wu Qian handed over the affairs of London to Fimiller, he changed some of his contact information to Fimiller, otherwise all calls would go to him, so he would not be able to live.

"Hey, the French Wine Industry Association was a little slow to get the news. Why did you invite me to meet? Persuading me to sell the shares to them? Anyway, I don't think it's a good thing. Fimiller, you push me away, saying that I don't have time."

Wu Qian reasoned briefly, knowing that being "summoned" must be a bad thing, and it is a wise choice to avoid it.

Fimiller said: "Okay, boss. But I guess, the French government should be supportive. You don't have to worry too much. If there is resistance there, tell me at any time. Your influence in the UK can be used. "

Fimiller thinks that the boss’s way of handling things seems to be okay for the time being, but there are some things that you can hide from and others will chase after. You can’t hide from them. You have to face them sooner or later. It’s not scary to face problems, just solve them up.

Wu Qian raised his eyebrows. After hearing what Fimiler said, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

His power has grown unconsciously, and he has the ability to counter many external forces.

"Okay, I see, Fimile, thank you for reminding me."

After speaking, Wu Qian hung up the phone.

While Wu Qian was answering the phone, the rest of the people stopped and waited aside, even Fang Nanqi and Sheng Yihuan didn't show any anxious look on their faces.

"Walk."

Wu Qian waved his hand with a smile, then called Rosalind to her side, and told her what Fei Miller said just now.

"Boss, don't worry. I guess the industry association just wants to know your attitude. At most, you can make some reasonable requests. You don't have to worry."

Rosalind's attitude was similar to that of Fimiller.

Wu Qian nodded, didn't think about it any more, there was nothing to think about, let's talk about it when we meet.

When a group of people stepped out of the station, they could clearly feel the lively atmosphere floating above the city, as if celebrating some kind of festival. On the street, it was easy to tell which were tourists and which were locals based on their clothing.

During the time when the grapes are ripe each year, Dijon, the capital of Burgundy, will gradually become excited, and various dance activities and programs will begin to warm up the harvest of Burgundy grapes.

The Dijon people wear traditional Burgundy costumes and dance to celebrate the harvest, which indicates that Burgundy is about to start harvesting, and the whole Burgundy will enter the most critical and busy period of the year.

The whole city is filled with the happiness of harvest.

"The atmosphere is so good, the customs here are so well maintained..."

The two are really good, expressing Wu Qian's feelings in his heart. The smaller the place, the more traditional customs are paid attention to. For example, in today's big cities, even the taste of the New Year has faded, let alone other traditional festivals.

Looking back on the joy of Chinese New Year when I was a child, I am afraid I will never experience that kind of fun again in my life.

Walking on the busy street, Wu Qian raised his hand to check the time. It was almost lunch time, so he called Barbara.

Barbara arrived in Dijon nearly half an hour earlier than Wu Qian and the others. She was very prescient, and judged that Wu Qian and the others would probably have lunch when they arrived in Dijon, so she booked a restaurant in advance.

Wu Qian looked at the location sent by Barbara on his mobile phone, and it showed that it was a Michelin two-star restaurant called "Little Red Riding Hood Inn". It was not very far from the train station, so he simply walked there.

Dijon is famous not only for wine, but also as one of the four major gourmet capitals of France. Foods such as mustard and snails are very famous.

The mustard mentioned here is not horseradish. Mustard and horseradish are two completely different things, with completely different raw materials and very different prices.

Wasabi, horseradish, and the island nation's "wasabi" are three different foods that share some commonalities in taste.

Dijon is definitely worth a meal in the gastronomic capital, but you have to eat the right food.

Wu Qian and others walked to the ground and found that the "Little Red Riding Hood Inn" was a three-story stone building. On the second and third floors of the building facing the street, many windows were neatly opened. The dark gray wooden window frames Like a mold carved out of the same.

The door of the restaurant has nothing to do with the word luxury, but it gives people a neat and friendly feeling, just like arriving at the door of an old friend from afar.

Wu Qian walked towards the main entrance of the restaurant. There was no need for a waiter to open the door for him. Barbara was already waiting by the door.

It seems that all Michelin restaurants have their own unique decorations, which are used to convey the atmosphere that complements the flavor of the restaurant. Visual enjoyment is an indispensable part of food.
