Chapter 970 The meeting ceremony in Tehran (fourth update, please subscribe)
Although I waited in London for several days, I still haven’t waited for Nassar’s action. This kind of thing cannot wait. They will definitely take action when needed.
It can only be said that Nasser is still waiting for the opportunity. He was waiting for the opportunity to break the rules of international business, while the British Empire was here preparing for the worst.
In this way, both sides are moving in an irreversible direction, but at least on the surface, whether it is Britain or Nasser, although the negotiations have broken down, they are still proceeding through some channels. The communication seems to be telling the other party... there is still room for further discussion on this matter.
While they were discussing there, Li Yian had finished his six-day visit to London, and Margaret stayed in London with the children.
However, Li Yi'an did not return to Nanyang alone. He was also accompanied by Britain's most famous female billionaire - Stana and her personal assistant Ji Li.
Their children are also indispensable. It is a rare opportunity for a family to be alone. After getting on the plane, seven-year-old Li Yitao took the initiative to play games with his younger brothers and sisters. For them, The plane seemed to be a playground.
As for Li Yian, Stana, Ji Li and the others, they were saying goodbye in the private room of the plane.
In the hearty battle, there was no winner, only endless lingering. When the battle was over, the sea of clouds outside the window had turned red. The entire sky is rendered red under the reflection of the setting sun, as if there is an erupting volcanic crater below. The scene is very spectacular and dazzling.
The volcano that once erupted in the cabin has now calmed down. Only the dresses and clothes scattered on the ground in the cabin are signs of the fierce battle before.
Stana and Ji Li, with their long hair hanging loose, rested their heads on Li Yian's left and right arms respectively. At this time, these two women, known as "legends" in the European shopping malls, were leaning on him like little birds. She no longer has the energy of a working woman.
Leaning on Li Yian's shoulder, Stana just looked at him with a look of obsession. Suddenly, she couldn't help but move her hands, touched his face and said.
"After so many years, you seem to have not changed at all. You are still the same as when I first met you more than ten years ago."
"Yes,"
Ji Li on the side also followed suit.
"I really envy you. There has been no change for so many years, but my eyesight has wrinkles. I'm worried that you won't want us anymore when I get old!"
Listening to the woman's words, Li Yian reached out and pinched her cheek and said.
“Why can’t I see how old you are?”
This is the truth. Although Stana is 38 years old and Ji Li is 34 years old, their looks do not look the same. Not much has changed, just the charm of a young woman. In fact, the same is true for Heidi and others. As for Hepburn, she still looks girlish, but her figure is much better.
Sometimes, money really is the best skin care product.
But on my side, it seems to be the sequelae of time travel. Over the past ten years, I have aged very slowly, or at present, my body seems to be affected by aging.
With the current rate of aging, it may be possible to achieve ultra-long standby time.
"Besides, even if one day we are really old, I will not leave you. After all, we are a couple in need!"
For Stana and Ji Li, Li Yian It has special emotions.
When the two women heard this, they lay on his chest again and held them in his arms. Li Yian's hand caressed their backs while chatting with them. Most of the conversation was about the operating conditions of the supermarket.
"...So far, Carrefour has opened 427 branches in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands, basically penetrating into every large and medium-sized city. As for North America, Costco has opened 32 branches, and Carrefour has There are 157 supermarkets. In terms of scale, Costco and Carrefour are already the largest supermarket chains in the world.”
When mentioning the company under her name, Stana was absolutely delighted. In the past ten years, business management has been her greatest spiritual sustenance. If she has any wish, it is probably to run the company well and give the men around her a surprise.
But now, this idea is getting weaker and weaker. She has completely turned into a career-oriented woman. Most of the time, she thinks about business, and at most she only thinks about the future of the company. Give it to your son.
"I know that you have always been very capable. In Nanyang, the largest supermarket is Carrefour and Costco."
Li Yian said with a smile.
In fact, their success is inseparable from the man standing behind them, that is, themselves. In the past ten years, Li Yi'an often gave them some business advice. In addition to learning from the business models of later large supermarket chains, he even It also learned some models from later generations of Fat Dong, with the goal of building the largest retailer in the world. Retail is the last process for goods to enter the hands of users. As long as certain retail channels can be mastered, Nanyang's manufacturing industry will be in an invincible position in the future. This is also the reason why Li Yian planned all this in the first place.
“And sales in the first quarter of this year have exceeded US$2.3 billion. According to predictions, by the end of the year, Carrefour will become the first company in the world with sales exceeding US$10 billion. Retailer!"
When she mentioned the company's sales, Stana's eyes looked at Li Yi'an with a look of "I'm so awesome, why don't you praise me?" expression. That expression was so seductive that Li Yian couldn't help but slap her buttocks hard and said.
“You are awesome!”
The feel is even better, and Ji Li on the side came over directly and said eagerly.
“There is me too!”
While speaking, she even raised her butt actively and begged for it.
How can I endure this situation...
When everything was over, the plane landed in Tehran again. While the plane was inspecting and refueling at the airport, Li Yian was at the airport. In the waiting room, I saw a guest, no, it should be the owner of this country - Pahlavi.
Yes, it was the King Pahlavi who was overthrown more than twenty years later. The king, who was not yet forty years old, looked a little excited when he saw Li Yian.
Five years ago, after Mossadegh became prime minister, he has been under house arrest in the palace. It was not until August 1953 that power was regained with the support of the United States. Whether in the past or now, as the king, Pahlavi was eager to modernize Iran and even become one of the world's powers.
Just like Nanyang!
For the late-developing countries around the world, Nanyang is an extremely successful example. In just ten years, it not only established a modern and prosperous country in the tropical rain forest; Possessing the atomic bomb and being able to be on an equal footing with the big powers.
Faced with such a miracle, who would not be amazed by it and yearn for it?
Therefore, after learning that Li Yian's special plane would be transiting in Tehran for refueling, Pahlavi specially sent an invitation through the diplomatic department to invite Li Yian to visit Iran. However, due to some special reasons, Li Yian did not accept Pahlavi's invitation. Instead, we opted for a short stopover in Tehran.
So the two people met at the airport.
“Your Majesty, I am really sorry that Tehran’s airport is too crude, but we will soon build a larger and more modern airport here, just like Chang’an International Airport. Same."
As soon as they met, Pahlavi seemed very enthusiastic and even deliberately tried to please him.
“We have now sent out bids to various countries. I heard that Hetai Construction in Nanyang also participated in the bid and is very likely to win the bid.”
What's this?
This is a gift given as soon as you meet, and this gift is not thin, it costs tens of millions of dollars!
No wonder in another world, Americans like Pahlavi so much. This kid is really generous.
The Iran of today is not the Iran of a few decades later, when Iran had already nationalized its oil.
And now?
Iran's oil is still under the control of international oil groups, and they don't get much money at all. In other words, the oil profits they get are right, limited, but only five levels.
But even so, Pahlavi was still extremely generous. The first move was a face-to-face gift of tens of millions of dollars.
This child is so generous, why is he not liked?
“Thank you for your Majesty’s care. Building a modern airport is indeed beneficial to Iran’s development. There is no doubt that it is. After all, as a flight transit center in Eurasia, it is beneficial to Iran’s economic development. However, , Your Majesty, perhaps, what Iran needs now is railways more than airports."
Li Yian said with a smile.
"After all, for Iran, if it wants to realize modernization, it must first realize the modernization of transportation. Compared with air transportation, railways will benefit more Iranians, and this is bound to be conducive to Iran's next development!"
