Chapter 3359 Friendship Is Based on Interests

Luo Ziling knew that the friends Michael brought would definitely not be people of ordinary status, but should be influential figures in the British government. As the undersecretary in charge of financial affairs, Michael still has a certain say in the British government.

Luo Ziling fully believed that the friends Michael brought would not have the right to speak less than himself.

They had just contacted the British side through the foreign affairs agency, and they were going to visit London tomorrow. Michael called and contacted him. He wanted to entertain Luo Ziling in his own name after the delegation arrived. He also brought a few important friends. Luo Ziling seemed to have already Seeing the dawn of victory beckoning to them.

Of course, he would not refuse Michael's invitation, and he readily agreed, saying that at noon tomorrow, he would eat less French food, and he would never eat on the plane. When he arrived in London, he would have a good taste of the big meal Michael had invited.

Lin Lan's translation still conveyed Luo Ziling's wit and humor to Michael.

Michael laughed and said that he would definitely treat Luo Ziling to eat the most authentic London dishes, so that Luo Ziling could eat to his full.

When the call was about to end, Michael told Luo Ziling some of his personal requests.

"Dear Luo, after receiving your treatment last time, I feel refreshed these days. I hope to receive your treatment again tomorrow night. I wonder if I can do it?"

"Of course I can!" Luo Ziling readily agreed, "If some of Mr. Michael's friends also want my treatment, then I will try my best to help them. No hesitation."

Luo Ziling's expression of course satisfied Michael.

When meeting Luo Ziling in Paris and receiving Luo Ziling's treatment, Michael still didn't take Luo Ziling seriously.

But Luo Ziling made such a big noise in Paris in the past few days, which finally forced the French government to change its attitude towards traditional medicine, signed an agreement with the Chinese delegation, and voluntarily revised the traditional medicine plan. Although this result is due to the shameless factors of those high-ranking officials in France who abandoned their European allies for their own interests, and the result of Prince Denman's efforts behind the scenes, but no matter what, we must admit that without Luo Ziling's tossing, this would not have been possible. the result of.

Laningdang, Bob, Reed, Lafadan, Deman, Denman and others are willing to help Luo Ziling and change the principles and rules for this young Chinese, which only shows that they all recognize Luo Ziling very much. It's not just Luo Ziling's luck that so many people recognize him and are willing to help him. Therefore, Michael felt that, as the Briton who first met and interacted with Luo Ziling, if Luo Ziling achieved results after visiting London,

Then the benefits he can obtain will certainly not be less.

Just like Bob.

As the Frenchman who first came into contact with Luo Ziling, Bob has reaped a lot of achievements during this period, and his exposure and public influence are rapidly increasing. Although Laningdang was a bit slow, he didn't miss the opportunity, but his income in all aspects was obviously inferior to Bob's.

Many people think that the signing of many agreements between France and the Chinese, and Dubai, where Prince Denman is located, is mainly due to Bob.

Luo Ziling didn't explore why Michael contacted him. France's experience made him understand that Europeans are also very treacherous, and they even value interests more than Chinese people.

friendship?

Talking about friendship with these European bigwigs, is your head flooded?

Without interests, how can there be friendship?

As long as you reach a certain level, all friendships are based on interests. Friendships that are not based on interests only exist in fantasy—although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it applies to most people. When everyone lives in poverty, the communication between people is very pure, because everyone does not have much, there is not much interest to exchange, and your thoughts will not be influenced and corrupted by money.

Friends are all over the world, but there is no one who has a confidant—this is the tragedy of most high-ranking people!

After communicating with Michael through Lin Lan's interpreter, Luo Ziling hung up the phone very satisfied.

Subsequently, he received a formal notification from the foreign affairs agency that all preparations for his visit to Britain had been made.

The Chinese foreign affairs agencies stationed in Britain are also ready to welcome and cooperate.

Wang Jian called Luo Ziling himself, told him the situation of Luo Ziling's foreign affairs agency in London, and the contact information of the main person in charge, and said that he had greeted him on his behalf.

Luo Ziling expressed his gratitude to Wang Jian and the staff of the foreign affairs agency for their help during this period, and promised to make credit for them after returning to China. Luo Ziling's promise made Wang Jian very happy.

To Luo Ziling's surprise, Bob came to him again in the evening.

Luo Ziling thought that Bob came to see him again, but after greeting each other, he realized that he was wrong.

Bob came with a present.

He brought Luo Ziling the promised red wine and a cultural relic from the Ming Dynasty.

After seeing the Ming Dynasty piece, Luo Ziling's eyes widened.

It was a piece of official cellar porcelain from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. The texture was very good, and Luo Ziling fell in love with it the first time he saw it.

There are quite a lot of official kiln porcelains of the Ming Dynasty that have been exiled overseas, especially the porcelains produced in the Hongwu and Yongle years.

The main reason is the seven voyages to the West during Emperor Yongle's time.

Zheng He was ordered by Zhu Di to take porcelain, silk, and tea as the most important items on his seven voyages to the West.

These items were exchanged for spices, dyes, gems, elephant skins, rare and exotic animals, etc. from the visiting countries.

Tea and silk are consumables that cannot be preserved, and have basically been annihilated in history.

Although porcelain is fragile, it is easy to preserve without breaking.

After hundreds of years, there are still many Ming Dynasty porcelains left in the world.

Also, during Zheng He's seven voyages to the West, many ships sank forever on the bottom of the sea due to accidents.

The porcelain loaded on these sunken ships is basically well preserved.

In the past few years, some foreigners have made a living by searching for sunken ships in Southeast Asia. They have obtained countless treasures through deep sea salvage.

Many Ming Dynasty porcelains have been reproduced in this way.

The relatively large piece of blue and white porcelain from the Yongle period that Bob obtained is a cultural relic of the Ming Dynasty that was rediscovered by salvaging a sunken ship.

Although there are quite a few porcelains from the Ming Dynasty left behind, the auction prices of porcelains of this quality are not low.

Luo Ziling was quite touched that Bob gave him such a precious cultural relic as a personal gift.

"This piece of porcelain was not looted from China by Europe, so I don't feel guilty at all!" Bob said to Luo Ziling with a smile: "We are friends who have made Wangnian. In order to thank you for your help, I would like to take Give out your treasured things as gifts to your friends, and hope that we can continue to help each other in the coming time."

"If Mr. Bob needs my help in the campaign, and I can help, just ask!"

"Okay!" Bob was waiting for Luo Ziling's words. He patted Luo Ziling's shoulder vigorously and said seriously, "If I need your help, I will definitely ask!"
