Chapter 1549

For Britain, Buckingham Palace is the highest symbol of politics. Most of the most grand diplomatic activities are held in Buckingham Palace. Even many leaders of other countries visiting the UK also stay in Buckingham Palace.

On the whole, Buckingham Palace has a very high position in the UK, but not only leaders from all countries have the opportunity to be invited. In fact, the British royal family often invites elites from all walks of life to visit Buckingham Palace, such as Olympic champions, national football team, famous athletes, such as pop singers, actors and artists, well-known experts and scholars, and entrepreneur.

It is not only the British elites from all walks of life who will be invited by Buckingham Palace, but also the elites from other countries who often become the guests of Buckingham Palace, such as Bill Gates and Li Jiacheng.

In a year, there are dozens of hospitality activities in Buckingham Palace, most of which are non political activities. The British royal family hopes to convey the royal family's concern for the whole country and even the whole world through non political meetings with elites from all walks of life.

After nearly an hour's driving, Li Mu and William's motorcade entered the closed area of Buckingham Palace.

Buckingham Palace is the supreme palace in England. Even though it is famous in Europe, the buildings here are not as large as Goldberg manor, but on the whole, they are exquisite and luxurious.

In addition to the main palace, the whole Buckingham Palace has three affiliated palaces. However, at this stage, the opening degree of Buckingham Palace is very low. Most tourists are blocked in front of the fence outside the front of the main palace. Although a large number of tourists are only separated from Buckingham Palace by a wall, they will hardly affect the normal activities of the palace.

At every gate, entrance and passage, there are royal guards in red coats and bearskin hats. These people seem to have little combat effectiveness, but they are actually elite troops in the British army, responsible for the safety of the whole Buckingham Palace.

After the motorcade arrived at Buckingham Palace through the special passage, a large number of staff, service personnel and members of the royal family have been waiting here for a long time, including William's father, Prince Charles.

The scene was decorated with a new red carpet, a neat royal honor guard, and even the Royal Orchestra were playing the Scottish bagpipes on the scene, which was extremely melodious.

As soon as the Royal bulletproof Jaguar car stopped, a British gentleman about 60 years old came forward and opened the door on the side where Li Mu was. Meanwhile, the door on Prince William's side was also opened, so the two men got out of the car at the same time.

There was no media reporter at the scene, only two royal photographers took photos a few meters away from the door. The shutter sound and fill light did not cause any trouble to Li Mu.

Prince Charles, now in his fifties, immediately walked up to Li Mu with a smile, walked directly across the red carpet, reached out to him, and said enthusiastically, "welcome to Buckingham Palace, Mr. Li!"

William had come to Li Mu and said, "Mr. Li, this is my father, Charles."

Li Mu politely said, "nice to meet you, Prince Charles. Thank you and other members of the royal family for your invitation. It's a great honor to be here."

"We really hope that Mr. Li can stay at Buckingham Palace and let William accompany you to visit Buckingham Palace and famous scenic spots in London, but it's a pity to hear from William that you have a very hurried trip ahead," Charles said

Li Mu said with a smile, "it doesn't matter. Next time I come to England, I hope I have a chance to make up for this regret."

Charles nodded and said with a smile, "that's for sure. Whenever Mr. Li comes to England, we sincerely welcome you to Buckingham Palace."

Li Mu thanked him. Charles introduced other royal family members to him. There were 17 royal family members who came to meet Li Mu outside the palace. From this, we can see that the whole royal family attached great importance to Li Mu's arrival.

After shaking hands with them one by one, Li Mu, at the invitation of Charles, walked into the main palace of Buckingham Palace with him, William and other members of the royal family.

Davidson of Goldberg family has no such treatment. Because he is not invited, the royal family arranges him and his team to rest in one of the affiliated palaces. Although there is also a rich luncheon for them, the members of the British royal family have no energy to recruit him.

Charles told Li Mu that the old queen was waiting in the reception hall at this time, and said that the queen had been looking forward to meeting with Li Mu, and spoke highly of him.

After arriving at the reception hall, Li Mu saw the queen at the first sight. The face of the queen was very familiar to Li Mu. When she was a child, she often saw the face of the queen of England when watching Hong Kong movies. When she grew up, the queen often appeared in the news. Moreover, she was in office for a long time, which made her famous all over the world.

The queen is nearly 80 years old this year, but her spirit is particularly good. She is wearing a lavender dress and a hat with the same color and elegant and fashionable shape. There are two white flower arrangements on the hat. Besides, the decorations she wears are also very elegant. Pearl earrings, necklaces and brooches are all particularly elegant.This old man, who can be regarded as one of the most fashionable old ladies in the world, is dressed almost as a model of European noble textbook level.

After shaking hands with Li Mu, she sighed, "I've been looking forward to meeting Mr. Li. Today, I finally get what I want. In my eyes, Mr. Li is the most outstanding young man in the world. It's my honor to meet you here."

Li Mu, who could not afford the Queen's "honor", said in a hurry and modestly, "Your Majesty, it's my honor to be summoned by you, and I'm just an ordinary businessman, not the most outstanding young man."

The queen looked at Li Mu and said with a smile, "my highest expectation for my grandchildren is not as high as one tenth of what Mr. Li has achieved today. As for William, he is my eldest grandson. I have the highest expectation for him, but my expectation for him is nothing more than that he can successfully complete his studies and hope that he can have more talents, knowledge and ability than most people Li, in the future, I can not disgrace the British royal family and the Windsor family. Compared with Mr. Li's achievements today, my expectation for him is far from that. "

Li Mu said: "I have been with William in Goldberg family for several days. To be honest, William is a very excellent young man. I think his ability, talent and personality are better than mine. But the two of us choose different directions. I choose to invest my energy in the field of Internet, and William prefers to be a qualified heir to the royal family In an old Chinese saying, both of us specialize in art. "

The queen didn't expect Li Mu to be so modest, but also gave William such a big affirmation. Her face was full of happy smiles. She held him like a grandmother, and then held William, sighing: "you two are the same age, and it's hard to talk so opportunely. I believe you can become very good friends in the future."

Speaking of this, the queen looked at Li Mu and said seriously: "Mr. Li, William has a strong sense of family and country. He wanted to make a contribution to the family, the royal family, the country and even the world since he was a child. But I always felt that his eyes were too focused at some times, which would lead to his lack of breadth and large-scale problems The overall situation. "

William on one side was said by his grandmother. His face was not embarrassed at all. He joked, "Your Majesty, you can't ask me for Mr. Li's achievements. Just like you said, I have a big gap with him."

The queen said with a smile: "I don't ask you for Mr. Li's achievements. Achievements need many factors, not only your internal conditions, but also many external conditions, such as your choice of direction, external opportunities, the development and change of the current situation, and even a lot of luck. However, I think you should learn from Mr. Li Vision, and the way he sees things. "

As she said, the queen looked at Li Mu and said with a smile, "William told me some time ago that he wanted to join the Royal Air Force and be loyal to his country. I think this is a good direction, but not necessarily a smart one. Over the years, when the royal family members thought of making contributions to their country, they first thought of joining the army."

"even when I was young, I was in Germany When the Chinese bombed London, they volunteered to operate searchlights on the front line. My two sons joined the army, my eldest son joined the Royal Navy, my second son joined the Royal Air Force, and William and his younger brother also wanted to join the army;

"although I didn't want to fight against their enthusiasm for joining the army, I always couldn't help asking myself if the whole family of Windsor men, Is it the only way to contribute to our country to join the army? If so, it proves that our thinking mode is too fixed, and we are lack of innovation consciousness. The most important thing is that we are lack of overall situation view. As a soldier, we can only devote a small amount of power to our country by individuals. However, if we can achieve a cause, we can devote more power to our country by greater ability. If one wants to contribute to our country, the best way is to We should find a way to improve ourselves. We should first accumulate powerful forces, and then continue to provide help for national construction and development. Unfortunately, William doesn't have this concept now... "

Then the queen paused and said, "it's just like Mr. Li. If you are just a young man in your 20s, your contribution to China and the world is very small. But now you have created science and technology and so many great undertakings. At this time, your contribution to the world exceeds that of the vast majority of the world People, this is my hope for William's future
