Chapter 433 Advantages
In terms of online TV programs, Barron's owns DigitalUK's Freeview platform and on-demand programs, which provide services to users through the broadband access provided by O2 Telecom.
The current situation is that companies that originally provided TV content services are adding broadband networks to embrace the Internet and shift content from TV to the Internet, such as Sky TV.
Companies that were originally engaged in the telecommunications business are now preparing to launch online video platforms. For example, it is said that British Telecom (BT), the largest telecommunications company in the UK, will launch its video platform next year... …
Barron still remembers that in his previous life, in 2007, the European Union required that the broadcast rights of the Premier League should no longer be exclusively authorized. Therefore, the broadcast rights of the Premier League in the UK at that time were provided by Sky TV and Acquired together with BT Company.
It can be seen that after entering the online video platform, BT still invested a lot in it.
This private room is very large. In addition to Prince William, there are also aristocratic children including Henry Howard, the eldest son of the Duke of Norfolk, the Lennox sisters of the Duke of Richmond's family, and of course , there are also many members of the business family who are closely related to the royal family, such as Holly Branson.
When Barron came over, it was already relatively late, and as the process progressed, it was obvious that William was in a state of intoxication.
Generally speaking, although there are occasional "carnival" moments like this, most of the time, due to the education he received and the responsibilities as a member of the royal family, William rarely has such moments. But today, On the one hand, it's a very private place like a club with friends.
On the other hand, it is also a change in role - after he graduates, he will begin to take on more and more responsibilities, and the work of royal family members is not like most people, working from nine to five. , there is always a time to have a private life after get off work, while members of the royal family need to work around the clock. At any moment, they represent the image of the royal family and the image of Britain.
It does take a process to adapt to this situation.
At William's age, at this time, it is understandable that he would like to indulge occasionally and enjoy the relaxation of being drunk.
"Let's find a hotel to send them there? Kaiser, are you okay?"
William, who was still very active, suddenly became drunk and became unconscious, so Faced with this situation, Holly was still a little hard to decide.
After all, with William in this state, it is definitely inappropriate to send him home. It seems better to send him to a hotel to rest temporarily, but something that needs to be considered is the confidentiality of the hotel. Measures, if there is a report about the prince being drunk and drunk in tomorrow's newspaper, it will definitely be a big trouble for the royal family.
"I...it's okay."
Cather's face was also rosy at this time. When she said this, she staggered slightly. Well, it was really hard to believe that she was really okay.
"I have a villa near here. It's no problem for them to stay there for one night."
At this time, Barron said.
“That would be great.”
Holly was immediately relieved that Barron stepped in to deal with the situation.
Like the rest of them, although their families are either rich or noble, they are still "juniors" after all, not to mention the situation of other people. Many of them are not much better. If it is Holly To deal with it, the best option is to book a room in a hotel for William and Cather, which is still a bit inappropriate.
Barron's bodyguards were waiting in the car outside. As soon as Barron called, they came in and helped William out of the club. As for Cather, when Barron said he would take William and the others to his villa, she had a look of hesitation on her face and opened her mouth to speak, but then she said nothing.
But at this time, although she said that she was in good condition, she still walked to the door of the club with the support of Barron's life assistant Aaliyah.
Because of their identities, the motorcade had stopped at the entrance of the club, and there were bodyguards keeping an eye on them separately to prevent anyone from taking secret photos.
After they got in the car, the motorcade started, and Barron took William and Cather to his mansion at The Holme in Regent's Park.
"Miss Kaiser, this is Ms. Saran Feola, she is the housekeeper of this villa. If you have any questions, just ask her directly."
Already in the future After the "unconscious" Prince William settled into a bedroom suite, Barron introduced the beautiful mature woman to Cather.
"Okay, thank you, Your Highness the Duke."
Speaking of which, although Barron did not raise any objection when he proposed to bring William and her to stay in his villa, Cather still felt a lot of nervousness and apprehension.
After all, she had an "accidental" encounter with the young Duke in front of her, but at that time, she could not have imagined that the young man who had a one-night stand with her A person with such an identity...
But it was so strange. After Barron arranged for the two of them very appropriately and left without any other expression, Kai took the people with him and left here. While Se felt relieved, she also felt a little inexplicable...
For Barron, if judged purely by appearance, Cather is considered beautiful and has a good temperament, but Among his women, she is not particularly outstanding...
The only thing that can tempt people may be her status as a "princess" in the future, but for now, this is still Not possessing...
Therefore, there is no need for Barron to treat her anything special... Even if his predecessor had an ONS intersection with her, so what?
……
Sure enough, soon after the London Stock Exchange proposed to acquire the Swedish OMX Group, their competitors appeared.

The Deutsche Börse is willing to use cash and stocks. In the form of acquiring the Swedish OMX Group, according to the current stock price, their offer is around US$3.45 billion, which is slightly higher than the offer from the London Stock Exchange.
In addition to the German exchange, the Nasdaq Group has also shown interest in the Swedish OMX Group. It is said that they have sent a team to Switzerland to contact the management of the OMX Group. Very soon It is possible that a bid for OMX Group may also be prepared.
Under such circumstances, the London Stock Exchange will naturally not relax.
“We will continue to track the situation of Deutsche Börse and Nasdaq Group. Your Highness, no matter what, we will quote prices. Better than them.”
Finn Ha, CEO of Global Industry Fund. Dessen told Barron’s:
“As far as we know, both Nasdaq Group and Deutsche Börse have experienced more or less acquisition activities in recent times. In terms of funds, there is no advantage for us.”
