Seeing Li Du, Cole came up excitedly and held out his hand. He smiled and said, "Hey, Li, my good man, how was the trip? Did it go well?"
"Very well," Li Du was about to say a few polite words. "The pilot of the helicopter, damn it …"
Another helicopter flew over. The engine roared and the wings spun, bringing with it a strong gust of wind. Sophie's dress was blown up.
Li Du quickly helped Sophie to hold down her skirt. Fortunately, she was wearing a sweater with a tube skirt. After the wind blew, the skirt did not lift much. Otherwise, she would have been exposed.
The helicopter slowly landed on the tarmac next door. The Four Seasons Hotel was luxurious and spacious. There were four tarmacs on the roof.
Li Du put his arm around Sophie, and Brother Wolf stood in front of him to help him block the wind.
Finally, the helicopter's wings stopped rotating. By this time, Li Du was very angry.
Cole was also very angry. The high-spirited look on his face disappeared and was replaced by a serious expression.
However, after seeing the logo on the helicopter and the letters' LVMH 'next to it, he sneered and said disdainfully, "Ha, I see."
Li Du frowned and said, "What?"
Cole said, "Do you know who is coming? LVMH's Australian CEO, Bradley Bolton. It must be him. Everything makes sense. "
Li Du continued to frown and said, "What makes sense? I want to know, what's going on with this helicopter? Didn't you see someone on the tarmac? Why not stop in the air for a while? "
Cole sneered and said, "This bastard did it on purpose. LVMH once wanted to buy us, but it did not succeed. This time, LVMH also wanted to host the jewelry exhibition in Oceania, but it did not succeed. We don't have a good relationship. "
LVMH was the famous LVMH group. Many people did not know about this group, but many people knew about the group's sub-brands: Givenchy, Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, Dior, and so on.
Harry Winston was the world's leading gem luxury company, but its field was limited to gems, or diamonds to be exact.
This could not be compared with LVMH, which covered almost all the jewelry and luxury industries, with a market value of more than 80 billion dollars and annual luxury sales of 40 billion dollars!
What about the Winston Group? The current market value was only about 1.5 billion dollars, and this was due to the launch of the Opal series, which had saved the group's reputation. Otherwise, when Li Du first came into contact with the Harry Winston group, their market value would have dropped to one billion dollars.
From this point of view, Li Du's move was timely. He had spent hundreds of millions of dollars to buy Harry Winston's shares, which had now risen to 150 million or more.
The door of the helicopter opened and someone helped a lady out.
Seeing this woman, Li Du was shocked and said, "Could this be the CEO?"
Sophie looked delighted and said, "Of course not, this is Sophie Marceau!"
Yes, the person who walked out of the helicopter was a charming beauty. Her appearance was exquisite, which was rare among Caucasians. Her facial features were soft like a girl next door, but her temperament was elegant and capable. She was like a big sister next door, but also like a princess who slowly walked out of the palace.
But now that she was in her forties, it was hard to imagine that God would love a woman so much that her beauty was preserved to this extent.
As she spoke, Sophie held Li Du's hand tightly and whispered excitedly, "Yes, Sophie Marceau, this is really Sophie Marceau. Our family loves her."
Li Du laughed and said, "Don't tell me your name has anything to do with her."
Sophie pursed her lips and chuckled. "That's true. My father really liked her 'First Kiss' movies. After I was born, he thought I would become as beautiful as Sophie Marceau, so he gave me that name."
Li Du said, "In the end, the truth was beyond his expectations. You became a more beautiful girl than Sophie Marceau."
Sophie pinched the hem of her skirt and made a bow commonly used by aristocratic girls. She smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, I don't deserve it."
While the two were talking, another man got off the plane.
The man looked to be in his forties. His blond hair was neatly combed. He was handsome and had a tough temperament. His blue eyes were sparkling, and he walked with vigor. He was full of the aura of a superior.
Cole nodded with his chin and snorted. "Ha, how impressive. This is Bradley Bolton."
Bradley and Marceau walked over together, and the two soon met.
It seemed that only then did Bradley see Cole. He said in surprise, "Hi, Mr. Winston, you came to pick us up personally? I'm flattered. "
Cole smiled. "It's my honor. In fact, I'm here to pick up our shareholders. I didn't expect to run into you."
"That's not very friendly, but I believe you're joking, right?" Bradley laughed and reached out to pat Cole on the shoulder, like a boss patting a little brother.
Cole took half a step back and raised his hand to give Bradley a high five. He said, "I'm very friendly, but you didn't tell me your arrival time, so I'm sorry I couldn't pick you up at the airport."
The two men began to exchange words. Obviously, they were not on good terms.
It had nothing to do with Li Du. Li Du and Sophie smiled at Marceau and began to talk.
"Hello, Ms. Marceau, it's an honor to meet you. My girlfriend and I are all your fans."
Marceau still had a smile on her face. She blinked her eyes and said, "It's my honor to receive your love. I'm not being polite. God knows how beautiful and cute your girlfriend is. Anyone would be proud to have such fans."
She paused and added, "I'm very sorry about the helicopter landing just now. I know it affected you. I hope you can understand."
The confrontation between the two CEOs was over. Bradley turned to look at Li Du. When he saw Sophie, he was a little surprised, and then his smile became more sincere.
Although Cole did not have a good relationship with him, he had to maintain basic etiquette and introduced both sides.
Li Du did not give him a good look. Sophie had almost been humiliated when the helicopter landed. Marceau's apology was sincere, but it had nothing to do with her. Li Du believed that it was Bradley who had ordered it.
However, Bradley seemed to have forgotten about it. Instead of apologizing, he began to praise Sophie.
At the same time, he noticed Li Du's hostility toward him, so he took the initiative to say, "Hello, Mr. Li. Did we have a misunderstanding before?"
Li Du said, "No, there's no misunderstanding. Why do you say that?"
"I see that you don't seem to be in a good mood. Is it because I greeted the beautiful lady next to you first?" Bradley laughed.
