Shenhao started as a military training anchor

Mark Pisali, the head of Gucci, came to Jiangcheng to visit Holly and made preparations. At least he learned to eat with Chinese bowls and chopsticks.

Holly smiled when he saw him moving his chopsticks, and was quite satisfied with his attitude.

Compared with the arrogance of Delphine, the eldest princess of LV, the head of the luxury brand gave him enough respect.

Holly asked with concern: "Mark, is it to your liking?

In Jiangcheng, the highest etiquette for receiving guests is to prepare a sumptuous family dinner. "

"Oh, Mr. Huo, thank you again for your warm hospitality. It's an honor to attend your family banquet." Mark invited, "Welcome to Italy and Florence as a guest. I will definitely receive you with the highest etiquette."

Holly picked up the small porcelain cup and clinked it with him with a smile and said, "There will be a chance. I am more looking forward to the showdown between Florence and Inter Milan than going to Florence as a guest."

Mark shook his head and said excitedly, "Although I live in Florence, I am an out-and-out Inter Milan fan.

This season, if Inter Milan wants to win the championship, Juventus is a big challenge. "

Gucci is an Italian brand headquartered in Florence, which is also a giant Serie A team and a top team in the Champions League.

"On behalf of my players, I want to thank you for your love and support," Holly said.

Mark was stunned for a moment.

He asked curiously: "Huo, are you the other Chinese shareholder of Inter Milan?"

Holly smiled and said: "Yes, Mark, Haikuo Sports Investment Company, which bought Inter Milan's shares from Suning Sports, is also one of my industries."

"That's such a fate." Mark raised a toast to Holly.

Hawley's strength is extraordinary because he was able to buy out the Inter Milan team's shares and become the majority shareholder from the high bids from the Arab Sovereign Wealth Fund and the Bahrain Consortium.

It's not that he can't afford this team, but that the cost of playing in the five major leagues is very high, and you may not see any benefits for a few years unless you transfer your shares.

Those who can keep playing, or those who support the team until the team is profitable, must have great cash flow or ability to leverage the capital market.

Mark had a vague feeling that Holly's wealth was much more than that.

"Mr. Huo, I am very honored to have dinner with a rich young Chinese like you today." Mark raised his glass again and said, "Gucci will regard China as its homeland, integrate more Chinese cultural elements, and respect Chinese culture and customs , truly becoming a brand favored by Chinese consumers.

I also look forward to having more exchanges and cooperation with Mr. Huo. "

Holly clinked a drink with him.

Those were the words Holly loved to hear.

Whether your people or your brand enter the Chinese market, you must first respect China's sovereignty, Chinese culture and Chinese customs, instead of showing an attitude of "it doesn't matter, you have to buy it anyway".

National consciousness has been awakening rapidly in recent years. It will definitely not work if foreign capital becomes a tool for smearing and slandering foreign regimes.

On the contrary, the country’s big heart welcomes every sincere collaborator to learn from each other.

"Mark, you can talk better than Delphine." Holly smiled.

Mark smiled and said, "I am not Delphine. I don't want to be your opponent. I just want to be your friend."

The two shook hands.

Xiao Zhan, the spokesperson of Gucci and a top-notch person, is from Jiangcheng. Ni Ni, a big flower born in 85, often attends Holly's activities, not to mention Tian Xiwei now. Putting aside these people, all artists in the entertainment industry who match the Gucci brand value must Holly has some respect.

It is no exaggeration to say that Gucci’s marketing in China depends on Holly’s face.

Holly said: "I can use Arnault's method to deal with Gucci to deal with the LV Group.

Delphine did not realize this. "

Mark looked shocked.

The profound meaning in this sentence makes people ponder.

If Hawley is demonstrating financial strength, his personal wealth is horrific.

The current market value of LV Group has reached more than 1400 billion euros, which is a trillion group when converted into RMB.

Even if it is a hostile acquisition of LV from the stock market to achieve an absolute controlling share of equity, at least close to 300 billion yuan of funds must be prepared.

If LV Group resists the issuance of new shares, it will have to fill in at least 100 billion of stable equity in order to complete the merger and acquisition of LV Group. In other words, if Holly wants to take action against LV Group, he must prepare at least 400 to 500 billion yuan.

This is a terrifying number.

It is equivalent to the market value of Gucci’s Kering Group.

Seeing Mark looking at him blankly, Holly smiled and said, "Mark thinks I'm kidding?"

"No! No! No! Mr. Huo, what I want to say is that Chinese rich people are really rich." Mark laughed.

Holly smiled and clinked a drink with him.

Holly didn't joke or brag. As long as he has a solid foundation in China and wants to play abroad and upgrade the system, the upgraded system can generate a total of close to 150 billion in cash a year.

The scale of funds that this cash can mobilize in the capital market is very large.

It's just that at the moment, he doesn't have a solid foundation in the country, and he also wants to make some achievements in medicine, education, and scientific research.

It is more meaningful to help the country overcome more scientific research problems than spending money to acquire luxury brands.

But Brother Huo will go international sooner or later.

It is inevitable to compete with major financial groups.

The game between international consortiums depends not only on financial resources, but also on whether the country behind you can provide solid backing.

After dinner, Holly invited Mark to the tea room for tea.

"Mark, please sit down."

"Thank you!"

Holly told Yu Huan: "Mark gave me a gift for the Year of the Dragon. Let's brew a pot of Nine Dragon Nest cinnamon today for the same auspicious meaning."

"Okay, Mr. Huo, I'll get ready." Yu Huan responded.

Jiulonghu cinnamon belongs to Wuyi Mountain rock tea. The Jiulonghu cinnamon collected by Holly is made by ancient methods and has a high market price, 25,000 per box.

"Chinese tea culture is very famous." Mark explained his knowledge of tea culture while tasting the taste, "but in Italy, Chinese porcelain is more famous."

He stared at the tea set in his hand, his eyes shining.

The things left by our ancestors are treasures in museums abroad.

Holly gave Yu Huan a look, and Yu Huan understood and brought up a tea set.

Holly said: "Mark, I'll give you a gift, a complete set of one-and-a-half-grade knives and clays made by Jingdezhen Shunci Tiangong.

I can feel that you like Chinese dragons very much. The carvings of dragon patterns on this tea set are very delicate.

Hope you like it. "

"That's great, Huo, I like it very much. I will definitely recommend you to the Tuscany District Government as a cultural exchange ambassador between China and Italy." Mark said excitedly.

"It's light on etiquette but heavy on affection." Holly extended his hand and said, "This should be treated as a return gift."

This tea set is not expensive at all, only 10,000 yuan, but it is very famous among tea lovers. It is also a high-quality kiln-fired product in contemporary Jingdezhen.

When Mark takes it back to Italy, he will probably keep it as a museum-quality collection.

Holly continued: "Mark, I have one more thing."

"Huo, please speak."

Holly stretched out his hand and took Tian Xiwei to sit down, "Tian Xiwei is the brand ambassador you just signed. She may not be as famous as other artists, but she is a very potential actress and is worthy of your investment.

So for this brand event in Jiangcheng, I hope you can..."

As soon as Holly spread his hands, Mark understood. Mark smiled and said, "Mr. Huo, believe me, I will definitely make Tian the most dazzling brand ambassador that day."
