The journey starts from the Titanic

Situ Nan curled his lips, understood the old Peugeot's mood, and shrugged: "I undoubtedly offend the authority of the Mark family, but just fancy the potential of Peugeot. If possible, I think 10% of the shares are very appropriate. Yes Conducive to strengthening the strategic cooperative relationship between the two parties."

10%?

The old Peugeot breathed a sigh of relief. The Peugeot family controlled most of the shares in Peugeot Motor Company, and the transfer of 10% would not affect the status of the Peugeot family. It was just that the achievements of their own hard work made people bite a big piece in one bite, and they were always a little unhappy.

"Young man, this is your condition? Don't you think it's too greedy?" Old Peugeot's eyes flashed brightly, faintly angry.

"Greedy? Oh, no! I bought it for real money. How can I be greedy?" Situ Nan sarcastically said that the reason for buying a stake in Peugeot was nothing more than Chrysler's French market, and by the way, to catch up with the French industry. relationship.

The French won the First World War, received a large amount of war reparations from Germany, and safeguarded the face of the old colonial empire. In fact, they were strong outsiders, and their courage was long gone.

At least when the Germans began to use mechanized farming extensively, French farmers were making wine leisurely. In the future, how can they be unbeaten against Germany armed with steel?Of course, the main reason for mechanized farming in Europe is that their men are dying.

France, which lacks coal, iron, and oil, is too weak to catch up with virtue in industry.Speaking of it, Situ Nan really didn't really value the French.Had it not been for the purpose of opening up markets in France and its colonies, he would not bother to talk to the Peugeot family.

He was somewhat indifferent to calm down the old Peugeot, thinking about it carefully, the other party's conditions were not difficult to accept.

"Let me think about it." Old Peugeot said slowly.

"Okay." Situ spouted a puff of smoke in South America, and saw that the old Peugeot's brows were still frowning, and smiled slightly. "In fact, we are also afraid that Peugeot will kick us away in the future and digest the technology provided by Chrysler against Peugeot. It's not difficult to say, I know French industrial technology, especially creative companies like Peugeot."

"Really?" Old Peugeot's expression relaxed, Situ Nan's compliment made him a little proud.

As Situ Nan said, if Chrysler becomes a shareholder of Peugeot and the two form an alliance, Peugeot cannot easily leave Chrysler alone.

"Thank you Mr. Peugeot for the wine! I really love French wine!" Situ Nan returned to the ballroom with a look of ease. It was only less than half an hour after a short time. Among the wine and cigar, Situ Nan completed the peace The first confrontation of the Peugeot family.

From the attitude of the old Peugeot, Situ Nan confirmed that the other party's ambitions for the auto market are still a bit eager. Is it because the arms giant Renault is putting too much pressure on them?

Thinking of this, Situ Nan turned around and smiled softly at the old Peugeot: "In fact, we are also looking for a partner in France. In fact, we have a good relationship with Renault, and the Dutch arms dealer Andre? Citroen is also enterprising. It is appreciated, and I hope Mr. Peugeot will not let me wait too long."

A trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the old Peugeot, and he immediately calmed down, restored his impeccable gentleman manner, and nodded towards Situ Nan with a smile.

Back in the ballroom, Situ Nan looked for Laura, but unfortunately there was no Laura in the bright and luxurious ballroom. Situ Nan was a little depressed, but didn't want his wife to dance with those pretentious French guys.

"Mr. William?" A line of London-like English sounded in Situ Nan's ears. When I looked back, it was a beautiful woman dressed in a black dress. She looked a bit old, probably in her forties, but she was well maintained and dressed. It's very delicate.

People are intoxicated before the fragrant wind.

"Chanel No. 5?" Situ Nan asked casually.

A hint of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes, and then she nodded and smiled, showing her white and neat teeth, like a lady.

"Something?" Situ Nan asked, but he didn't think that the other party came to soak himself, although I heard that Paris has gathered boring ladies from all over the world.

The women who appeared on this occasion actually put on the same pose as the hypocritical men, so Situ Nan's attitude has always been cold.

That woman seems to be uncomfortable with Situ Nan's indifference. In Paris, who doesn't know Miss Chanel in the fashion industry?The man who saw her was warm and polite even if he wasn't as courteous as a seal, so stiff as this young man, seemed unwilling to take care of himself?

Chanel was a little unsatisfied in his heart, frowned slightly, pursing his mouth, and said nothing.

"Sorry!" Situ Nan nodded and turned to leave. He was thinking of Laura in his heart, but he was not in the mood to talk to a strange woman. He would rather go to a football game when he had time.

As for entertainment, does he need it?

Before he could take two steps, Laura appeared, coming down the stairs with a smile, with a bunch of crystal pearl necklaces on her chest, all plump and round, with a black dress, a little more elegant and brisk.

"Is it pretty?" Laura asked with a smile, turning around playfully.

"It's okay! The pearls are a little smaller! The gloss is stronger." Situ Nan's eyes rolled and glanced at the strange woman next to him, and said critically.

For some reason, he hated the woman a little.At the moment when she saw Laura's pearl necklace, Situ Nan immediately realized that the woman who had just talked to him also had a flurry, and the styles were almost the same.

"Really? This is Miss Chanel's latest design. It's the most suitable black dress." Laura gave Situ Nan a white look, but gently took Situ Nan's hand and smiled and introduced them to each other. "This is Gabriel, well-known in the fashion industry in Paris? Miss Chanel."

"My husband Stoney? William, but if you call him Mr. Situ, he will be happier." Laura leaned slightly towards Situ Nan, and said to Chanel with happiness.

"Yes, Mr. William. We met just now." Chanel smiled as sweet as a spring breeze, looked at the Situ Nan couple with admiration, and a trace of envy flashed in his eyes.

This woman is not simple, um, a very charming socialite, I really don't know how many men kneel under her pomegranate skirt?

Situ Nan thought to himself, now he is aware of the fact that he makes perfume, sells fashion gestures, makes all the money of women all over the world, and hurts men’s pockets. The founder of the international luxury brand Chanel turned out to be the one in front of him with a fake smile. , But not easily annoying women!

"Miss Chanel, hello!" Situ Nan took the initiative to reach out to hold Chanel's hand. His palm was soft and strong, which made Chanel a little bit painful!

Why does this bastard seem to be hostile to him?

Chanel cursed secretly in his heart, other men are all kindly kisses, but this bastard actually seems to be "destructive"?

Seeing Situ Nan's handsome face, jet-black eyes, and young and handsome physique, Chanel felt a little like and hated.

Chanel is very famous in Paris. After all, the establishment time is relatively short, not comparable to other old brands. It is mainly supported by Chanel's influence in the Paris fashion industry.

Compared to those giant families, Chanel is not even a nobleman, and its influence is even less impressive. Selling perfume is a bit like selling meat. Can it compare with selling oil and arms?

However, Chanel lives in France, Paris, where the pursuit of elegance and taste, and the peaceful and prosperous times, perfume and fashion business are also promising, and there is no limit to money.

A few days ago, at a banquet, Chanel met Laura.She is a frequent visitor to banquets in Paris, and she knows many people every day, and high-ranking officials are the main goal of her diplomacy.

But this time is different. When I came into contact with the mysterious William family, I secretly fell in love.If it gets the support of the other party, the internationalization of the Chanel brand will be greatly accelerated.

But this bastard seems difficult to deal with?For a while, many thoughts flashed through Chanel's mind. When he let go, his fingers concealedly scratched Situ Nan's palm.

Sister, don't have to be so passionate, I am respectful and insensitive to you!

Situ Nan sneered in his heart, French women are open, but are not the so-called ladies in Paris fashion the mistresses of wealthy and powerful foreign men?

Situ Nan appreciates Chanel's female proficiency, and she appreciates it. On the other hand, this woman has a complicated background!

But what does this have to do with him?In a patriarchal society, a career depends on achievement, besides relying on ingenuity, beauty is also essential. Some people sell well while others sell poorly. This is the difference.

There is no doubt that this Chanel is one of the best.With this thought, Situ Nan's attitude towards Chanel changed a lot.

"My dear, where did you go just now? Would you like to dance another dance with you?" Situ Nan asked Laura.

"There is a salon upstairs. I talked with a few ladies: fashion, jewelry, and art. We had a good time. Miss Chanel showed us her latest pearl necklace."

Laura gestured to the necklace on her chest with a look of love, she couldn't think of anything more beautiful than this, and praised: "The women in Paris are so happy that they can enjoy fashion trends anytime."

See what this says, is Los Angeles bad?Isn't it enough to lead the trend by gathering all the American movie stars?

Situ Nan thought to himself that she didn't understand Laura's fascination with Paris.It is probably because she grew up here in her teenage years, right?

Situ Nan shrugged with regret, but he couldn't object to Laura's complaint.Women are always dissatisfied.

"If Mrs. William likes it, we will provide you with Chanel's new products on a regular basis in the future, let her help us experience it? Your taste has always been very elegant and unique."
