Chapter 879 Favorability UP
Cameron’s schedule was quite tight. He only stayed in Yanjing for one day and had an important meeting before heading to his next destination - the Magic City.
Magic City is the economic center of China. Coming here, the most important thing for Cameron to do is naturally, well, in the words of China, it is "attracting investment."
In Shanghai, Cameron met with many well-known Chinese business people, including Alibaba’s boss Ma. Cameron hoped that more British companies could operate in Alibaba’s Tianjin. Cat Mall, selling their products.
During his trip to the capital, Cameron participated in many business activities. He called the partnership with China an "indispensable" partnership.
However, Barron did not go to Magic City with Cameron. After all, the purpose of his trip was not only to continue to deepen the relationship with China, but also to show his "old friend" that he was firmly optimistic about China. .
To be honest, although often those European and American business leaders, for the sake of the Chinese market, often put on the mask of "sincerity and friendliness" after coming to China, and they are full of praise - as for after leaving China , I’m afraid you can imagine what kind of attitude it will have in front of the European and American media and governments.
"It's good to make money, not to be shabby..."
But Barron is different. He sincerely hopes that China can be revived - this is not because his soul in his previous life came from China, at least Not the main reason.
The main reason is because of his current status. If he wants to maintain the relative security of his industry, he needs to rely on the European market. But to prevent the European market from being controlled by American Jewish capital, Europe needs to have With a certain degree of autonomy, the status quo of the United States being the dominant nation and acting domineeringly must be broken.
Only if China's strength can contain the United States can Barron feel that his industry is relatively safe.
And also because Barron came from China in his previous life, he does not have the preconceived prejudices about China that many Europeans and Americans have - compared with the United States, China is more pragmatic, as long as there is no investment in China Damn it, then the Chinese people prefer to do business with you and make money, instead of grabbing your pigtails and knocking you off at every turn...
...
" May I ask, Your Highness the Duke, as a successful investor, I can see that you have invested in many successful companies, such as Woaw, Skype and other companies. I wonder how you choose the companies to invest in? ”
"This is a good question. I am very lucky. The companies I invest in are basically running well. Everyone has their own way of investing. In my opinion, the most important thing is to invest in areas with development prospects and choose The most powerful one among them is that I have invested in many Chinese companies, including Alibaba, Penguin and Baidu, mainly because I am very optimistic about the development of China. The first time I came to China was ten years ago. At that time, I went to Many cities in China, including Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Yanjing, what I saw and heard at that time had a great impact on me. At that time, I concluded that this would be the place with the fastest development and the most potential in the world. I couldn’t miss the development of Huaxia, so I made a series of investments. Up to now, I am very happy with my decision and still stick to my judgment.”
Just when Cameron went to Shanghai, Barron was invited to Yanda and gave a speech here.
The venue where he gave his speech was crowded with students and teachers from Yanda and many surrounding universities. This young British Duke, who was extremely wealthy and had a distinguished family background, had a handsome face and elegant image. , and his fluent Chinese, all left a deep impression on the audience.
In the question and answer session after the speech, everyone was very active.
"Can you tell me why you are so optimistic about China's development? Your Highness the Duke." "I personally like Chinese culture and Chinese food very much... China has a long and magnificent history of five thousand years. Of the four ancient civilizations, only the Chinese civilization has survived to this day and remains vibrant..."
Barron said seriously:
“I know that in the past hundred years or so, China has lagged behind Western civilization for a while, but if we take a longer view, in China’s five thousand years of history, Almost most of the time, it was at the center of the world stage. Compared with the history of China, these more than one hundred years were just a blink of an eye. Napoleon called China the sleeping lion of the East. Well, to be precise, He just took a nap and then returned to the center of the world stage again - just like when I first came to China, I was amazed at the rapid development of this country. When I looked for the reasons for this, China The hard work and unity of the people are what impress me the most. I have been to many countries, and only in China can I have such an impressive feeling. Then such a country and people will inevitably develop rapidly and lead the way. On the road to greatness..."
His speech and the subsequent question and answer session can be said to have created a wave of goodwill in China. After all, at this time, China was able to quickly join the WTO. development, at the same time, it also needs the recognition of the world.
As the world's most successful entrepreneur and investor, and as the Duke of England, Barron's recognition and praise will naturally gain China's favor.
And he is not just talking about it, but has invested a lot of real money in China. He is one of the entrepreneurs with the largest investment in China in Europe and the United States. This also shows that he Of course, it is not just a simple verbal compliment, but a sincere recognition.
On the same day, Barron also received an honorary doctorate from Yanda, and he naturally accepted it happily.
As early as 2007, "the world's richest man" Bill Gates gave a speech in Shuimu and received an honorary doctorate from Shuimu.
Now that Yanda has awarded Barron an honorary doctorate, this ranking is no weaker than that of Mizuki and Bill Gates for both parties...
In Cameron and After Barron's unrestrained expression of goodwill, England and China seemed to have entered the honeymoon period, and the official and private relations between the two sides were heating up rapidly.
The results of the cooperation between the two parties are also very fruitful.
The London Stock Exchange and the Magic Stock Exchange have reached a relevant agreement on in-depth cooperation between the two parties and are preparing to launch the "Magic Lun Connect", which means that the listed companies of the London Stock Exchange and the Magic Stock Exchange can issue corresponding depository receipts in each other, thereby reaching an agreement Each other trades part of each other's stock.
Of course, the first phase of the "Mo Lun Tong" only involves the transaction of depositary receipts corresponding to the listed stocks of the other party, and does not involve financing, but if the "Mo Lun Tong" can run well, then each other will It is also expected to increase financing services for listed companies of the other party.
In addition, LOMX Group will also increase its support for offshore Chinese currency transactions and strive to make London the world's largest offshore trading center for Chinese currencies. This is also of great significance to the internationalization of Chinese currencies. .
Through this, London can also attract more financial business from China, thereby expanding the scale of their financial business and stabilizing London's status as a global financial center.
