Rebirth of England

This is also the reason why Earl Bute came to India with Barron this time.

After meeting with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Barron took Ian Butt with him to meet Reliance Group Chairman Mukesh Ambani.

Many years later, on the Internet, you can often see the introduction of a building called Antilla Tower, which is known as "Asia's most luxurious residence". The owner of this mansion in the center of Mumbai is Asia's richest man and India's largest Mukesh Ambani, the boss of privately held Reliance Group.

The Antila Building has a total of 27 floors, a height of 173 meters, and an 8-level earthquake resistance. It has three helicopter airports, an airport control tower, a 6-story parking lot, a swimming pool, a theater, etc. There can be as many as 600 daily maids.

It is worth mentioning its architectural structure. About two-thirds of the weight of the upper part of the building is mainly supported by two sets of W-shaped steel bars on both sides of the sky garden on the 9th to 12th floors, giving people the illusion of a castle in the air. The entire building The cost is said to be close to $1 billion.

This building will be completed next year.

In other words, this time when Barron came here, he still couldn't appreciate this mansion.

But when he arrived in Mumbai, Barron was invited by Mukesh to his mansion there.

Although Reliance Group does not have real estate business, as the richest man in India, Mukesh still has quite deep connections here. Therefore, using his network will also help the development of Argent Real Estate Group in India.

Mukesh is a middle-aged uncle who looks very kind, but Barron knows that if he can take charge of such a large-scale group, he will definitely not be as harmless as he appears on the surface.

It is also worth mentioning that the telecommunications company under the Reliance Group is also one of Honor Electronics’ cooperative operators in India.

However, their best-selling mobile phones in India are still cost-effective feature phones and Smart Android phones from Dopod.

However, apart from welcoming Barron, the British Duke, to India, Mukesh mainly talked with him about the large oil orders signed by the BFT Fund.

"It seems that, Your Highness the Duke, you are relatively optimistic about the oil price next year?"

Many people have the impression that Indian English is very strong in curry flavor...

Of course, this can be considered correct, but this impression mainly comes from their ordinary people, while wealthy people like Mukesh have received elite education since childhood and have studied abroad for many years. experience, so when talking to Barron, his spoken language was still very pure.

"As an energy company with extensive oil exploration business, United Energy Group has its own value-preserving system. As for the large orders to purchase oil, I hope to find comparisons for subsequent large-scale investment in refining projects. Stable source of raw materials.”

Of course, just saying this will definitely not dispel the other party's suspicion. Barron said with a smile:

“We have learned from research that in the future, due to various factors, it will be difficult for global oil production to reach an ideal level, so personally, I definitely hope that the oil price will be higher. The better, but no one can predict how long this trend will last.”

"But I appreciate your courage very much, Your Highness the Duke, and I hope that through this cooperation, we can continue to deepen our cooperation in related fields."

Barron certainly agrees with what Mukesh said:

"I hope so too, Mr. Ambani."

The reason why Barron chose to cooperate with Reliance Group on such a huge refining project this time was because Barron also had his own considerations.

After all, India is very famous for cheating foreign investment, and it doesn't depend on which country you are from. Anyone can cheat. Even the big companies in the United States do not hesitate to cheat.

The main consideration for investing in such a large-scale refining and chemical project in India is that India's location can radiate to surrounding areas, and the labor costs and environmental pressure here are relatively small.

As for whether he will be cheated?

United Energy Group is a joint venture project with Reliance Group. Barron believes that with Reliance Group as his partner, this project is relatively safe.

Otherwise, if you cheated me this time, then your Reliance Group will either only do business in India. Otherwise, if you go overseas, especially Europe and the United States, you will always have to pay back those who cheated me.

Barron now has the confidence to do so.

As for the Indian government, if Reliance Group did not have strong connections in this area, it would be impossible to say that it would become India's largest private company.

…

As soon as the Bentley Mulsanne stopped in front of the hotel, a group of people came over. The one at the front was Feng Pants, who had a smile on his face. He opened the car door himself and spoke to the top-notch woman who got out of the car. He said with a bit of affection and a bit of compliment:

"Boss Fan, you are here, let's go in."

"Director Feng, don't call me that, just call me Bingbing."

The woman who got out of the car was Fan Bingbing who had returned to China. She looked at the crowd around her and said with a smile:

"You're all here anyway. You are the protagonists this year. I'm just here to support you..."

At this moment, all she saw were warm smiles, and she walked into the hotel surrounded by everyone.

Today's press conference is a promotion before the release of the movie "Assembly".

As we all know, Feng Pants has mainly directed New Year comedies before. This time he filmed a war theme such as "Assembly Number". Although his reputation among domestic directors is second only to Lao Mouzi, for this film Many people are still not optimistic about his transformation.

When the movie was first shot, Huayi Company provided 80 million yuan for Feng Pants, but in fact the filming of the movie did not go smoothly...

First of all, Feng Pants originally found his old partner, Uncle Ge, as the protagonist of the movie. However, after filming a few times, he felt that the image was not right; not only Uncle Ge, but also the other heroine did not fit Feng Pants’ character. The feeling of shaping the protagonist, and finally stopped shortly after the filming started to prepare to change the male and female protagonists...

Also, the funds for filming are somewhat insufficient, but Huayi really doesn't dare to continue investing money in it.

At that time, Huayi’s boss Wang gave Feng Pants a trick and asked him to ask Fan Bingbing...

Sure enough, after calling Fan Bingbing, who was still in Los Angeles at the time, Fan Bingbing quickly added additional funds through Tianhe Television Investment, which was able to ensure that Feng Pants could complete the filming of the movie.

And when it comes to choosing the leading actor, Fan Bingbing also recommended Zhang Hanyu - you know, although Zhang Hanyu is from Huayi, he has been playing a supporting role before, although his image and temperament are very suitable for the protagonist of this movie. Character design, but the investment in "Assembly" is so high, Feng Pengtang still doesn't trust him to hand over the leading role, and plans to hire movie stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Finally, under Fan Bingbing's recommendation, Zhang Hanyu became the leading actor in such a large-scale film for the first time, and he was very grateful to Fan Bingbing.

This is why Feng Pants was so enthusiastic about Fan Bingbing at a press conference today.
