Chapter 839: A Changing World
Frank's expression seemed a little dull at this moment.
It is now obvious that under Umbrella's bloodbath on emerging industries, the status of traditional industries has been passively and rapidly improved!
Infrastructure, electricity, railways, gas transmission, transportation, etc., all saw a sudden surge in demand due to this new industrial revolution.
This is especially true in the areas of energy and electricity.
The large number of subcontracted orders from Umbrella directly caused the various machinery manufacturing plants and shipyards to run out of production capacity. With the continuous expansion of production capacity and the introduction of robots, the electricity gap became increasingly larger.
Building a new power plant or something like that cannot be completed overnight.
Therefore, the status of old traditional strong companies will become increasingly important.
It's just like when South Korea was hit, but as a result, New World Company did not suffer any problems by relying on its traditional capital, but instead its voice was enhanced.
With the tide rising, it can be said that many large groups in Gaul have begun to curry favor with Alstom in order to ensure that the upstream is not blocked.
In the current situation of power shortage, isn't it that people just say who gets more will get more? If we really wait foolishly, then we will probably always be short of electricity.
But what did he see now?
Director Yoel, who was very popular recently and whom I had gone to great lengths to meet, actually smiled the same... no! A more humble smile than mine!
Mr. Qian?
Who is this? !
Never heard of it!
And why was he walking in the direction of the group of people that Gu Nan’s wife had picked up?
For a moment, Frank was dumbfounded.
At this time, Gu Nan had already stepped forward, and there was no one he could even ask.
But since Frank could come to the airport to block people, he must be thick-skinned, or it can be said that he cannot be shameless if he has reached his level.
He immediately smiled widely again and came over to find Gu Nan.
"Hey, Mr. Gu, there was a problem with the previous appointment. How about we make another one? Which time do you think is better?"
And Joel, who had been smiling from a distance and seemed a little humble when completing the "chance encounter", also had his eyes lit up when he saw Frank's expression.
Boy, does Frank know the guy who came to pick us up? And do they have business dealings with him?
When did he become so wild?!
The reason why Joel specially chartered a plane to come here at this point was for this "chance encounter"!
After all, Alstom is a Gallic company. Although the last time when Da Piaoliang forced to buy Alstom's industries, the current Gallic decision-maker happened to be the operator of the Ministry of Commerce at that time, and he did not provide any help to Alstom.
But now that Alstom's status has been passively improved with the emergence of Umbrella, it can still get some related goodwill!
The great mathematician Master Yi, the big boss of a world company, came to Gaul for a trip and arrived in his loyal Paris a few days earlier than the time of his academic speech.
This is great news!
Ever since the South Korean Mathematical Conference, this great mathematician has never left the country again. Of course, Joel understands what the problem is. He has suffered such a loss himself, and he doesn't think the other party will be an exception!
But now the world has changed. Umbrella dominates the world, and Da Piaoliang can only keep his tail between his legs. Master Yi, who has a close relationship with Umbrella, can be said to be able to go everywhere, and the seal has been lifted.
This was a rare first stop and a rare opportunity, so of course he had to find a way to make the most of it.
His plan was to first create a chance encounter at the airport to get to know each other, and then have an in-depth exchange after the academic lecture!
In other words, the other party is here to play, and obviously does not want to be subject to any constraints or influences, so apart from this kind of occasional encounter, it will definitely not be convenient for him to harass you during the subsequent play.
But I didn’t expect that Frank actually knew the person who was going to pick him up at the airport. This is great!
Frank has something to ask of him.
Joel immediately put on a kind smile and looked at Frank and said with a smile
"Mr. Frank, do you know these people? Why don't you introduce them?"
It seemed as if the person who waved perfunctorily before was not him at all.
Frank quickly adjusted the bracelet's translation mode and said simply and quickly:
"This is Mr. Gu Nan, the CEO of DSIC, and his wife. Please forgive me for my ignorance."
Yor had also noticed that Qian Yaqian and Qian Yayan had similar faces, and his eyes lit up slightly . He didn't expect that there was such a relationship.
But then he got stuck again. For now, let alone Master Yi, he couldn’t even find any photos of him on the public Internet!
Even Mr. Qian, although he occasionally shows up because he is in charge of the world company, he will not show up in any external publicity.
If I introduce myself without permission, this...
When Frank saw Joel, he seemed to want to introduce him, but suddenly he got stuck and his heart skipped a beat. I've seen this expression before!
Gu Nan was like this before!
It turns out that he wasn't just being perfunctory with me, but he didn't even dare to introduce me without my permission?
It’s over, it’s over. Gu Nan won’t hold a grudge against me, right?
Damn, why are you talking so mean?
Just say hello when you meet!
At this time, Wang Yi also looked at the two of them. Lin Shiqin had already told him all the information about them.
Even the purpose of the two people's visit and some of the things that happened were explained clearly.
Although it was a deliberately created encounter, it is not impossible for Joel to lend a helping hand.
Umbrella does dominate the world today, but its own time foundation and accumulated size are still limited.
In fact, the best way is to maintain a balance among other parties.
Find something else for Da Piaoliang to do to distract her attention.
In the past, didn’t Da Piaoliang often use agents to confront people remotely?
Just give them what they want you to give to them...
There is some improvement in Gaul, which is good.
"I roughly understand Mr. Yoel's purpose. We are here for fun this time and don't want to waste our time. When the time comes, you can go to Umbrella's office in Paris and I will tell you about your company's affairs."
Wang Yi did not hide anything from them and directly made Yoel's lips tremble with excitement.
They did make some assessments of the current situation and knew that this might be in the interests of Umbrella, so they gave it a try. They just didn't expect it to be so smooth, and their prayers were very accurate!
It was done with just one sentence!
In fact, they asked Umbrella for help just to bring up the "injustice" of that year.
A large number of high-quality assets were swallowed up by competitors. The key point is that now due to the impact of Umbrella, the value of these assets has increased several times. Naturally, they feel bitter.
If Da Piaoliang was still at the peak of her career, they certainly wouldn't dare to do that. They would even use despicable means to bite the other person when the meat was not in his mouth.
How is it possible to ask them to vomit out something they have already eaten?
But now it’s different. Umbrella is here, and we have a bright future!
"Thank you very much, thank you very much! I am really sorry for disturbing you today. If you can use me in any way, please let me know. I will not bother you any more!"
Joel also knew that the other party's previous intention was to get rid of him and let him go to find someone from the Umbrella office, so he was tactful and did not continue to be polite or entangled.
This attitude made Frank stand there in a daze.
It’s not because of Joel’s attitude, but because of the word Umbrella!
After these words came out, Joel's attitude was completely normal.
The whole of Gaul is proud of being the first to "surrender"!
Even Frank himself thinks so!
What is the situation now?
This person can actually influence Umbrella's decision?
Asian face, young, low-key.
Then, a person's identity suddenly appeared in his mind.
The great mathematician Master Yi!
The man who can influence Umbrella...
When I thought of this shocking answer, and my previous disrespect for Gu Nan, I saw the similarities between Gu Nan’s wife and the other woman’s companion.
A chill rushed directly from the soles of his feet to the tips of his hair. His vision went dark and he passed out. He was helped up by his followers and bodyguards.
Wang Yi couldn't help but touch his face in silence. Is it that scary? Isn't my identity a cultured person, a mathematician? I won't force you to do math problems...
"When your boss wakes up, tell him that you can set up an additional time for the consultation with Gu Nan's brother-in-law."
Wang Yi would not get fussy with others about something he just said casually.
The last time I met this guy Gu Nan, he seemed to be a pretty good person.
After Wang Yi finished speaking, Frank, who had fainted, immediately stood up and said,
"No problem, no problem! Mr. Gu, you are very busy these days, you can make an appointment with me anytime you are free!"
Looking at their backs as they left, Frank kept rubbing his hands behind his back with a smile on his face.
At the same time, I was thinking in my heart that all the business that can be cooperated with CSSC should be handed over to CSSC, and I would give as much profit as possible. In short, I have to tie it up first and stick to it no matter how shameless I am.
"You are so lucky."
Joel, who seemed to have left, now appeared behind Frank like a ghost.
Frank was not of such a high status that after he realized that the other party could not help him, he naturally withdrew from the matter after achieving his goal without causing any more trouble.
Now I secretly observed that Frank had also solved the problem, so I came over again. Maybe we can still communicate in the future.
Looking at the backs of the group of people leaving, Yoel couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.
A man who can influence Umbrella to a certain extent.
Today, Umbrella is the real sky of Blue Planet!
And her eating habits are much better than those of Da Piaoliang. She is not profit-driven, but is willing to shoulder some social responsibilities.
In addition to the injury to Da Piaoliang, many other countries were also shaken by the technological impact of Umbrella.
However, Umbrella's own subcontracting model allowed all parties to survive.
Moreover, although Umbrella ate the lion's share of the new cake and new fields that they forcibly opened up, the remaining sinking market was enough for other parties to maintain their former dignity.
Emerging entities like the Eastern ones are improving even more rapidly.
If they help Alstom this time, Da Piaoliang's life will definitely become more difficult in the future.
But they have no other choice but to use a blunt knife to cut the meat and give their mushrooms the most basic respect.
However, he heard from recent news that Da Piaoliang has also developed a lot of good things, and he wonders if they will take the opportunity to attack Umbrella.
It's not that Da Meiliang will be desperate enough to launch a military attack, but they may publish some scientific research results to boost morale and want to reunite with their former allies...
