Chapter 308 Mrs. Hall
Compared to Uniqlo, it seems that the Four Seasons Hotel is more likely to be acquired.
Because Prince Walid is currently also a shareholder of this hotel, Global Industrial Investment Fund can try to cooperate with the other party three years in advance to privatize the Four Seasons Hotel, and even try to get more shares...
Barron handed over these two goals to Finn Hudson, CEO of GII Fund, which can be regarded as the first test after taking office.
"Your Highness the Duke, it is a little regrettable that you can also consider Northron Rock Bank for your latest loan... We cooperated very happily last time."
"Haha, definitely next time, as long as Northen Rock Bank can give me the corresponding loan ratio..."
"We will definitely give you the best terms."
Once again I met Colin Hall, and during the conversation with Barron, he also mentioned the loan provided by DS Capital.
It seems that this "old friend" is really concerned about him.
It has to be said that when a person's position is higher, what he sees downwards are only smiling faces.
Just like in this banquet, everyone who saw Barron had an affectionate and even flattering smile.
Like Colin Hall, Barron didn't care at all how the expression on the other person's face would change when he turned around after seeing the smile.
"Hello, Your Highness the Duke, I have heard my daughter talk about you, and I am very happy to meet you today."
"I am also very happy to see you here, Bran. "Sir."
This man with a bright smile and long gray hair is Richard Branson, the founder of the Virgin Group, and the Holly whom Barron has met before. Branson's father.
It can be said that in the UK, you can find the Virgin Group almost everywhere you look - in the UK, the awareness rate of the Virgin brand is as high as 96%, and 95% of them can name Virgin. The founder is Branson.
This is also because Richard Branson has almost become the spokesperson of the entire Virgin Group. Many of his actions have made the brand topical and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
For example, every time Virgin brand is extended, Branson will personally perform a unique show.
Wearing only briefs, he once filmed a Virgin Energy drink commercial with Pamela Anderson, the heroine of the American soap opera "Baywatch"...
He once filmed a commercial with 20 almost Naked models promoted Virgin mobile phones on the streets of London with the slogan "What you see is what you get"...
He drove a tank into Times Square in New York to promote the Virgin Records chain's entry into the United States...
He flew to New Delhi and rode a white elephant to the Indian Parliament to speak...
He once walked along the Running naked on the beach in the English Channel...
It was his extraordinary actions that made his red and white Virgin brand rank first in the "British Men's Most Famous Brand Selection" and ranked first in the "British Women's Selection" Ranked third in the selection of the most famous brands.
And he himself, in a 2001 BBC poll, was rated as the second most inspiring figure, higher than Jesus.
Although Barron admires Richard Branson's passion for starting a business, of course he cannot learn from his approach.
But during the communication between the two, Barron could still feel that this was a very interesting person.
"I will have a party in a few days and have invited many friends. I would be very honored if I could invite you, Your Highness the Duke."
Looks like this, Holly Branson’s party-loving character really comes from her family.
“Sure, why not?”
"Haha, then I'll wait for you to come. The dance will start soon. If I, an old guy, take up your time anymore, I'm afraid those girls can kill me just with their eyes..."
After his joke, sure enough, in the hall on one side, the lights dimmed slightly and the music sounded... Sure enough, as Branson said, after seeing him leave, bold girls began to approach him. Barron comes this way.
Today is a gathering of London entrepreneurs. Most of the ladies present are their wives. From the appearance of the women here, it can be seen that beauty resources are as good as wealth. , where are they all gathering?
However, Barron does not want to be entangled with those girls. How should I say, although quite a few of these daughters of big families also have good looks, Barron does not want to provoke them. He doesn't have that much time and energy to focus on this kind of thing now.
So when Barron glanced over and saw a figure, he smiled and walked towards the other person...
"Catherine...oh no, Mrs. Hall, I am honored to dance with you. Want to dance?”
Catherine, Colin Hall’s wife and Barron’s brother’s former fiancée, never expected that Barron would come up to her and extend an invitation.
When she saw Barron walking in her direction, she subconsciously wanted to escape.
But although it seemed that Barron's pace was very calm, his speed was very fast. When she turned slightly sideways, Barron had already come to her and extended an invitation.
"Bar...Duke Cavendish..."
As Barron walked over, many girls also looked at Catherine, which made her polite words stay in her throat, and finally Still said:
"Okay."
He held up Catherine's extended hand very gentlemanly, and Barron brought her into the dance floor...
"Yes. The arrangement of fate is very wonderful, isn't it? I never imagined that one day I would call you Mrs. Hall..."
"Barron, I..."
Catherine is nearly half a head shorter than Barron. Looking from Barron's perspective, after her eyes met hers, she quickly moved away, but her voice Into the ears:
"I'm sorry... "
"Actually, it doesn't matter. Everyone has their own choice. I can understand it, Mrs. Hall. "
Barron still has an elegant smile on his face, as for his own. What I think in my heart will not be expressed.
In fact, when Barron came over at first, he really wanted to take advantage of this moment to ask the woman in front of him why she married Colin Hall when her "ex-fiancé" had just passed away.
But suddenly, he was no longer in the mood to find the answer. After all, no matter what, the facts are the facts, and this cannot be changed.
Everyone can find various reasons for their behavior, even if that behavior hurts others.
Besides, I am not a moral policeman, and I don’t have deep feelings for the good brother from my predecessor.
If it weren't for Colin Hall's various behaviors that really made Barron wary, he wouldn't want to waste time on such bloody things.
"Mr. Hall, return your wife to Zhao in perfect condition..."
After Barron and Catherine finished dancing a song, Barron saw Colin Hall standing on the side of the dance floor.
"I believe you also have a lot to reminisce about."
"Haha, indeed, but what I am more grateful for is that Mrs. Hall blocked some dance partners for me..."
Barron didn’t want to waste time here anymore, when he noticed some “eager” eyes.
