Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon

Chapter 159: Reception (3)

When Li Zhiwen was talking with British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, the eyes of the entire banquet hall circled around the two of them. They were also wondering why Margaret Thatcher looked at this Hong Kong man in a different light and discussed for so long.

Many people wondered what they were talking about, but none of them went over. After all, it wouldn't be good if they knew something confidential that they were talking about.

One person finally broke the atmosphere. It turned out that the Duke of Bedford walked over with his young daughter Grace Russell.

"Ms. Margaret, can you lend me the young man in front of you for a few minutes?" Before the Duke of Bedford arrived, the voice came.

The Duke of Bedford also wanted to remind the two of them. First, the conversation between the two was really too long. Second, let’s talk first. In case Li Zhiwen and Mrs. Thatcher have any secret remarks, they can be kept in time.

Margaret Thatcher did the same. When she heard someone calling herself, Margaret Thatcher immediately stopped talking to Li Zhiwen, turned her head and looked around, and saw that it was the Duke of Bedford. Margaret Thatcher smiled. , Said: "It turned out to be the Duke of Bedford, are you here to repay your gratitude? I have just finished talking, you talk."

"Thank you Ms. Margaret, then!" said the Duke of Bedford.

"Little things, I happen to have something to deal with, you guys talk!" said Mrs. Thatcher.

Then Mrs. Thatcher turned around and said to Li Zhiwen: "Mr. Li, let's talk about this first. If you have any needs, you can go to Downing Street to find me."

"Then thank you Ms. Margaret." Li Zhiwen said.

Li Zhiwen was overjoyed by Mrs. Thatcher's words. It seemed that Mrs. Thatcher was very satisfied with the conversation.

After that, Mrs. Thatcher left. After all, this was a cocktail party and many businessmen were invited. Mrs. Thatcher's privatization reform must rely on these people to succeed, so she needs to build a good relationship with all parties.

The Duke of Bedford brought Grace Russell forward and said: "Hello, introduce myself. I am the Duke of Bedford, my name is John Russell. This is my daughter Grace Russell, Mr. Lee. Thank you very much for helping my daughter on the plane."

Li Zhiwen was surprised when Mrs. Thatcher asked about the identity of the visitor. It turned out that Grace Russell was the daughter of the Duke. No wonder he could go on a trip with the crown prince’s girlfriend.

However, Li Zhiwen had always thought that this girl was at most the daughter of the earl. After all, Princess Diana's father was only a viscount at this time.

"The Duke of Bedford joked. Grace thought so beautiful that no one would let such a beautiful lady die." Li Zhiwen said.

Li Zhiwen’s words not only made this rescue a trivial matter, but also praised Grace Russell from the side. Presumably Grace Russell was very happy. Anyone who is praised for being beautiful and unhappy is from Grace Russell. You can see the smile on his face.

The words of Li Zhiwen made the Duke of Bedford very satisfied, but this was not enough. Regarding the plane incident, the Duke of Bedford still had a lot of doubts that he had not solved, so the Duke of Bedford went on to ask: "Mr. Li, I have heard Grace describe the process of your acquaintance. I really want to know why you want to meet my daughter and what are your attempts."

The Duke of Bedford himself did not notice that his tone was getting more and more serious.

In fact, Li Zhiwen was very dissatisfied with the words of the Duke of Bedford. I saved your daughter. You are still wary of me, but Li Zhiwen knew that he could not be angry, so Li Zhiwen smiled and said: "Duke Bedford, maybe your daughter is too Is it attractive? I am embarrassed to strike up a conversation, so I have to ask my female partner to help me. As for the attempt, I just want to meet your daughter."

Li Zhiwen’s words made Grace Russell irritated. I asked the girl if she didn’t want to be praised by others. So she took the Duke of Bedford’s hand and said, “Father, you don’t need to get to the bottom. I’ve told you everything in between. , And didn’t you come over and said that you can help Mr. Li, why do you specifically ask this and that?"

Grace Russell’s words made the Duke of Bedford’s interrogation lose its deterrent effect. The Duke of Bedford could only sigh and said, “Mr. The Times?"

Li Zhiwen is not surprised by the words of the Duke of Bedford. After all, people have such a big influence in the British mainland, and it is what they should be found out.

"Yes, I am the chairman of Mars Capital, but the company has other capital. At present, Mars Capital is seeking to acquire the "Financial Times", but currently Pearson Education Group has no intention to sell, and I am also very anxious." Li Zhiwenzhuang Said with a distressed expression.

Li Zhiwen knew that the Duke of Bedford would not talk about this for no reason, and he definitely wanted to repay his favor with this, but it was much better for the Duke of Bedford to say it than Li Zhiwen.

"Huh, there is no shortage of Pearson Education Group, how can it be sold to you, and the consortium behind Pearson Education Group is too complicated to do it twice." said the Duke of Bedford.

"What can the Duke teach me?" Li Zhiwen knew that the Duke of Bedford was waiting for this sentence. Li Zhiwen didn't care about dignity, it was worth a few dollars, and the Duke of Bedford did not humiliate himself.

"I'll take care of this for you, as your reward for saving my daughter." said the Duke of Bedford.

"The Lord Duke is underestimating me when I say that. Do I save Ling Ai for remuneration? It's because she is my friend. I don't need you like this." Li Zhiwen pretended to be righteous and said.

Li Zhiwen knew that what the Duke of Bedford wanted was a one-off deal. How could Li Zhiwen let him do what he wanted, leaning on the big tree to enjoy the cold.

"Yes, Dad, why is Mr. Li such a person? He didn't know who I was when he rescued me." Grace Russell on the side also interjected.

Li Zhiwen gave a secret applause in his heart, God assisted, sister.

The Duke of Bedford looked at his stupid daughter, sighed secretly, and helped his forehead. Why didn't he find her daughter so stupid before.

"Okay, I'm just helping as a friend," said the Duke of Bedford.

"Then thank you Lord Duke!" Li Zhiwen said hurriedly, not holding on to the air at this time.

Then Li Zhiwen went on to say to Grace Russell: "Grace, you said you are a fan of the Lakers. I just talked to the Lakers management on the phone yesterday. The Lakers have swept the Suns to advance to the second round. ."

"Really, that's great!" Grace Russell said happily.

"I am not going to sell the first row of seats in the Lakers Arena. Then I will ask the management to reserve an exclusive seat for you. You can go there to watch the game from time to time." Li Zhiwen said.

"Really, thank you, Mr. Lee!" Grace Russell said.

"It's all trivial things, and Grace, don't call me Mr. Li~www.wuxiaspot.com~ My English name is Karl, you can call me Karl directly." Li Zhiwen said.

In Hong Kong, English names are very popular, so Li Zhiwen has always used English names, but it has never come in handy.

"No problem, Carl!" Grace Russell said.

"In addition, I am going to buy a Premier League team. Before you said that you also like football very much, I hope you join my company and participate in this project. This will be a great decision." Li Zhiwen said.

"Really? Carl, can I?" Grace Russell said happily.

"Of course, I can't ask for it!" Li Zhiwen said with a smile.

"I promised, Carl, thank you for your invitation, I also happen to have a topic to do, which is just right." Grace Russell said.

The Duke of Bedford looked at his delighted daughter and shook his head. He had never seen her daughter so stupid before.

But he didn't worry about Li Zhiwen's intentions, he was just taking advantage of the situation.
