Chapter 477 The Most Beautiful Princess
Accompanying Barron and Bonnie to visit the Borromeo Islands is Isabella. She is the eldest sister of the four Borromeo sisters and just married last year. Italian oil tycoon Ugo - their family's business comes from Ugo's mother's family, and Ugo's mother is the national inspector of the Italian Red Cross and the only woman in Italy with the rank of general. This can also be seen The energy of this family in Italy.
The Borromeo family’s business involves finance, real estate and hotels. They have also invested more than 100 million euros in the DS Group’s Athena Fund, which can be considered a cooperation with Barron’s. relationship.
"Your Highness, Madam, this is my sister Beatrice, she is now attending college."
"Hello, Miss Merrily Borromeo."
When inviting Barron and Bonnie to dinner, Isabella also introduced her sister Beatrice Borromeo to them.
Barron also heard about this youngest daughter of the Borromeo family in his previous life. Among the four daughters of the Borromeo family, she is the same father as the other three sisters. The relationship between their mothers - the story about their father jumping back and forth between the two women is actually quite bloody, so I won’t go into it here.
But leaving aside the matters of the parents' generation, the relationship between these children's generations is quite good.
Just like Beatrice’s mother, she was born in an Italian textile family. Her uncle is now the president and chief designer of the luxury brand Valentino, and Beatrice’s eldest sister Isabella appeared in reporters When I was in the camera, what I wore the most were Valentino clothes.
In addition, in the original time and space, Beatrice later married the Prince of Monaco and was also known as the most beautiful princess...
Now Beatrice is just 21 years old and has just studied at Bocconi University in Italy - she should not have met the prince yet.
“I wonder what major Miss Beatrice is studying now?”
Bonnie was very friendly and looked for a topic with Beatrice.
And Beatrice also responded:
“I am currently studying law and economics, and I plan to get these two degrees...”
She glanced at Barron with her beautiful eyes, and then smiled at Bonnie:
"Duchess, I studied in London before college, and I liked the program you hosted very much at that time. In fact, I am also very interested in journalism, and I plan to continue learning in this area if I have the opportunity in the future. "
"Thank you, if you have the chance to come to London again, you must come to my home. I think we will have a lot of conversation."
It seems that Bonnie gets along well with the ladies. That's not bad, but it's also normal. After all, in addition to her stunning beauty, she is also very approachable.
In addition, Barron also knows that what Beatrice said just now is not a lie. In his previous life, after receiving a degree from Bocconi University, the youngest daughter of the Borromeo family Went to Columbia University in the United States and got a master's degree in journalism...
...
"Mr. Brown, I know you have just taken office recently and are very busy, but you also need to balance work and rest..."
After visiting the Borromeo Islands, Barron He was also invited to a banquet by Silvio Berlusconi, the current Prime Minister of Italy, who heard that he had come to Italy, and then returned to London. It is worth mentioning that at Berlusconi’s banquet, Barron also met an old friend, Berlusconi’s daughter Barbara Berlusconi. At the earliest time, Barron and Bonnie went there for the first time. When I went to Italy, I met her in Sicily, when Barbara was only 19 years old.
In addition, it is said that as Italy's longest-serving prime minister, Berlusconi... prefers to have some kind of party. Fortunately, this time Barron is with his wife Bonnie came with her, so she didn’t get to see Lao Bei’s bold side...
But in addition to being the Prime Minister of Italy, Bayern is also the richest man in Italy. He also owns AC Milan, runs a TV station, etc. There is no shortage of topics between him and Barron.
Now, after returning to London, Barron met Brown in Neverland, who had been in office for nearly a month - the current Brown is different from the past. After all, he has just taken office and has a lot of busy things to do. There are not as many opportunities to get together with Barron in Neverland as before. ,
But as Barron said, even if you are busy at work, you still need to "balance work and rest."
“I read in the newspaper that your Caesar Fund is planning to acquire Aston Martin, Jaguar and Land Rover?”
“That’s the idea...”
After receiving the Caesars Fund's intention to acquire the company, it was no surprise that Ford did not waste this opportunity. This matter soon appeared in media reports and became hot news for a while.
After all, from last year to now, Caesar Fund has been buying and buying, and has bought many companies. Now it has set its sights on Ford, an automobile giant that still ranks third in the world in terms of sales. Everything on his body arouses everyone’s curiosity.
Although Ford also has the idea of selling Aston Martin, Caesars Fund also wants to acquire Jaguar and Land Rover. Although they are still hesitant about this, it does not affect them. Use the hype to attract more suitors for Aston Martin and raise the price.
In this regard, Barron said to Brown calmly:
“But it seems that the future is not clear at present. Ford has not given a satisfactory answer, and even if only Aston ·Martin, their asking price is also much higher than our expectations.”
Before becoming Prime Minister, Brown had been serving as Chancellor of the Exchequer. Now that he has just taken office, he hopes to achieve something.
No wonder he cares about this matter. After all, the car brands Barron is planning to acquire from Ford were all British car brands. If he can really bring these brands back to England, at least To some extent, it can boost public morale.
"If the acquisition can really be completed, our government will also support you, Barron."
What Barron was waiting for was Brown's words. He nodded and said :
“If we can get the support of the government, then for the British The development of London's automobile industry will also be a good thing. After all, our automobile industry once led the world, but now, almost all of it has been acquired by foreign companies. This is a very fatal blow to our manufacturing industry, so it will Too many jobs lost ”
When he mentioned this, Brown also looked a little embarrassed...
There are many British car brands, such as Bentley acquired by Volkswagen, Rolls-Royce and MINI acquired by BMW. Aston Martin, Jaguar and Land Rover acquired by Ford...
Even the two brands that originally belonged to Rover Motors, Roewe and MG, were respectively acquired by China, which was not a strong car industry at this time. The car companies SAIC and Nanjing Automobile purchased them respectively...
It can be said that there are not many car brands left in the UK. This is also a matter that makes the British people feel that they are disgraced.
If Barron can really buy back Ford's three British brands, it must be something worthy of support - Brown also hopes to boost the British manufacturing industry, otherwise those former industrial cities , selling diplomas can only be regarded as a pillar industry.
