Chapter 620 Bloody
“Don’t you want to ask me about what happened just now? My dear...”
While having dinner together, Beatrice hesitated, Said to Barron.
"Are you talking about that handsome guy you just met? If you want to tell me, you will tell me, honey, and I believe you."
"Thank you, honey , Pierre and I met in school, but he has been pursuing me, but I..."
Beatrice looked at Barron lovingly and said:
"I only have you in my heart, so..."
Barron knew that in the original time and space, Beatrice was the same as Pierre. The prince of Monaco fell in love with her at school and later married into the Monaco royal family.
But now Barron and Beatrice have known each other earlier, so there is no longer any relationship between them.
Speaking of the country Monaco, it is also very interesting.
First of all, Monaco was originally a principality belonging to France - the Principality of Monaco.
During World War II, in June 1940, France surrendered to Nazi Germany.
In the same month, Italy sent troops to occupy Monaco, a satellite state of France.
At that time, Hitler was very dissatisfied with Italy's invasion of Monaco. He immediately sent a note to Italy, demanding that the other side must immediately withdraw its troops from Monaco and restore Monaco's neutral country status - Nazi Germany needed to pass through the two "neutral countries" of Switzerland and Monaco. to trade.
The Principality of Monaco at that time was ruled by Prince Louis II. After Italy occupied Monaco, Prince Louis II was captured by Italy.
Just when Prince Louis II thought that the Monaco royal family was about to perish, a turning point soon came.
A few days later, he was politely returned to the Palace of Monaco by the Italian army.
Then, Louis II watched helplessly as the Italian soldiers who had looted everywhere a few days ago trotted out of Monaco.
If you look outside with a telescope at this time, you can see the scene of Italian troops gathering outside the territory of Monaco.
This is definitely the fastest country to recover in human history. The Poles next to them who were once again destroyed were probably jealous to death when they saw this scene...
But this was not the end. In November 1942, after the Allied forces landed in North Africa, Italy once again sent troops to occupy Monaco on the grounds of protecting expatriates.
This time, Hitler did not ask Mussolini to withdraw his troops, because as the Soviet-German war continued, Nazi Germany suffered heavy losses, and Hitler had no time to consider the safety of Monaco.
After Mussolini was overthrown in 1943, Nazi Germany took over control of Monaco.
At this point, Monaco officially lost its status as a neutral country and became the front line of Nazi defense.
In August 1944, the Allied forces landed in southern France, and the overwhelmed German troops began to withdraw from Monaco.
On September 3, two American soldiers arrived in Monaco. They announced in a restaurant that the Allies had officially occupied Monaco - September 3 also became Monaco's Liberation Day.
After the Allied forces liberated Monaco, Prince Louis II was restored again, and Monaco returned to its original path and continued to cultivate the tertiary industry.
Monaco has now become a world-famous gambling destination and the country with the most developed entertainment industry in the world. Thanks to its gambling and entertainment industry, Monaco has become one of the countries with the highest per capita income in the world, and the happiness of its residents also ranks among the top. At the forefront of the world.
If nothing else happens, Monaco should continue to be so happy - until France lifts white next time.
Back to Beatrice, the Pierre they met today, who is called the "Prince" of Monaco, is actually not the child of the current Prince of Monaco, Albert II. , but the son of Princess Caroline, sister of Albert II. He also has an older brother, Prince Andrei, who is known as the "most handsome prince".
Their grandmother is very famous, the famous Hollywood actress Grace Kelly.
“I have to admit that the royal family of Monaco is very good at promoting themselves, which is why they have been able to succeed in the gaming and tourism industries.”
At the poolside on the top floor of the Paris Hotel , Barron and Beatrice were tasting fine wine together and looking at the sunset over the Mediterranean Sea in the distance. He said nonchalantly:
"It's like when Rainier III chose to marry Grace Kelly..."
"This thing is very famous, but the Hollywood actress couldn't be happy in the end, right?"
Hearing Beatrice's words, Barron nodded and said with a smile:
"This is a deal in itself. Rainier III needs to let the world know about Monaco to develop gaming and tourism, while Grace Kelly wants the title of 'Princess', and the two hit it off. That’s all.”
Before marrying Rainier III, Grace Kelly, as a well-known Hollywood actress with an Oscar in her hand, dated Kennedy several times.
However, the Kennedy family did not like Grace Kelly, so she could not marry into the Kennedy family. In the end, she made another choice - marry a prince and become a princess.
Anyway, the stories about the Monaco royal family are indeed full of nonsense-their prince is very happy to marry a very famous actress, but at the same time he is very philandering.
Especially the current story between Prince Albert and Princess Charlene - Prince Albert is not only carefree, but also has very rich tastes. Among his many illegitimate children and illegitimate daughters, well, there are Black people.
I won’t show the photo, it’s a bit harsh on the eyes...
Princess Charlene tried to escape from the Monaco royal family three times, but was caught back in various ways - threatening her children. In the end, she may have resigned herself to her fate. I wonder if there will be a fourth escape...
In this way, Beatrice is lucky to be able to avoid marrying into such a family.
After what happened before, although Barron didn't care - he was not worried about what the Monaco royal family would do to him, not to mention that Prince Pierre was not a core member of the royal family.
But this still affected Beatrice's mood to some extent. In this case, Barron took her out of Monaco and headed to the next destination-Germany.
When he comes to Germany, in addition to preparing to go to the A&R shipyard to hand over the superyacht "Devenhill Poseidon" that is about to be completed, Barron will also meet with some big guys in Germany. .
"Hello, Mr. Oberman, I believe our meeting will be constructive this time."
"I hope so too, Your Highness, it is an honor to meet you."< br>
This time, Barron met with Deutsche Telekom CEO Lenny Obermann at the Deutsche Telekom headquarters in Bonn.
This is not Barron’s first stop in Germany.
“I also talked about this acquisition when I met with Ms. Merkel before. I believe that this acquisition will be beneficial to both of us, especially in the current market environment. . ”
The acquisition Barron is talking about is a consortium formed by O2 Telecom and Caesar Fund again to acquire T-MobileUSA, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom.
