After listening to David Rohill's narration, the faces of everyone present became very solemn.
The Lohill family's situation in France has indeed reached the most dangerous point!
At this time, Guy Lohill suddenly said in an old voice slowly: "Now we have not lost the last chance to resist, we still have some time. Although this time we will definitely lose a lot, but before the last moment, You still have to find a way to preserve your strength as much as possible, even if you only save a fire in the end!"
"Our family has come through the bigger crisis before, and now it's only the problem in France. I believe we will be able to survive this crisis!"
All the people present nodded their heads, and the solemn atmosphere in the hall was slightly relaxed.
"If according to David's statement, the Bourbon, Orleans and Bonaparte families have temporarily put aside their competition and reached an agreement on the issue of dealing with our family, then our allies in France will certainly not be able to stop it."
"Our power and contacts are not in France. Even if we ask people from other countries to help, it will not have much effect, and the cost will never be low, and there is still a huge secondary risk."
"I think our only way is to start at the level of the French government, especially President Francois Mitterrand!"
"The policy of nationalization of enterprises is dominated by him. If he can overwhelm the Bourbon and other families, he will definitely open the channel of life for us!"
Liszt Lowhill pushed his glasses, squinted and analyzed.
David Rohill sighed, shook his head and said: "We have tried it, but François Mitterrand's attitude is perfunctory, and he does not want to have another relationship with Bourbon and Bonaparte because of our family. Disagreement."
"Now his Socialist Party has very strong control over the French political arena, and other parties can't pose a threat to him at all, so the bargaining chips we can now cannot move him!"
"Even if we agreed to his privatization, but only hoped to keep the name of Edmund Lowhill Bank and obtain a banking license again, he would not agree!"
Sidney Rohill frowned after thinking for a moment and suggested, "Is money useless?"
David Lowhill shook his head and said: "He doesn't talk to us about money at all. He should understand that families such as Bourbon and Bonaparte, as well as other political parties are staring at him, so he is worried that there will be huge Political risk."
...
As everyone continued to suggest and analyze, the opinions of the last nine people were unified.
First and foremost, part of the equity of Thomson Group and Rhone Planck Chemical Group, which is more important, cannot be kept. These two giant industrial companies will definitely be nationalized by the French government.
But we can't just sit back and watch, so two plans were discussed.
The first plan is to see whether the equity can be transferred to another person to take over in a short time.
The second plan is to supplement, if no one takes the order, then you must get back as much compensation as possible from the French government.
Then there is Edmond Rothschild Bank, the backbone of the family in France, to do everything possible to preserve it.
If it can’t be kept, then the bottom line is to keep the ownership of the name and keep a bank license.
After World War II, it took a huge price to get Rohill Bank to re-enter France. If it was driven out this time, it would have to re-enter the next time. At that time, it will be difficult and will have to pay a huge price.
It is a huge strategic victory to be able to keep the ownership of the name and the bank license now, and it can also keep a fig leaf for the family.
Otherwise, if it is completely cleaned up, the Roshill family will be swept away, and other families in Europe will also have some thoughts that they shouldn't have!
By then, the family will have one after another trouble!
"Uncle Guy, David, the French side still needs you to fight for the Lord. I will coordinate in the middle and mobilize family resources to give you full support!"
After Jacob Rohill finished speaking, he looked at other people, his expression became solemn, and said: "And everyone, after going back, we must be more vigilant and increase infiltration into the political field."
"Although all countries are wary of us, this is not the reason why we gave up political influence. What is happening in France has already sounded the alarm for us!"
"The UK is now undergoing privatization reforms. This is a very good phenomenon, but France is taking the lead in nationalization reforms. Other European countries are watching. We absolutely must avoid other countries from following France. This is the biggest political risk. !"
After listening, everyone nodded gravely.
...
After the meeting, everyone hurried back to their territories.
Especially Guy Rohill and David Rohill, after returning home, immediately convened family members and think tanks in France to discuss.
Then on January 23, he visited François Mitterrand again in private, but the result of the visit disappointed them.
After Guy Rohill and others left, François Mitterrand picked up the encrypted phone and called Xia Yu who was reading at home, telling Xia Yu that the time was ripe and the time to operate was no longer That's too much, and it will be completely settled in half a month!
Therefore, on the morning of January 24, Xia Yu asked Leo Martin to vote for Edmund Lowhill Bank in the name of the Bright Fund. The visitor was Guy Lowhill!
Guy Rohill was very surprised when he received the greeting from the Guangming Fund, but he also knew that Xia Yu was behind the Guangming Fund, and during this time, the Guangming Fund happened to make a big news in France.
Although he didn't know what he was visiting, Guy Rosier solemnly replied to the Bright Fund and set the location of the meeting in Paris, France, to show his importance.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon on January 25th, Xia Yu, with Li Wuming and other bodyguards, arrived at the luxurious manor of the Rohill family in Paris on time!
"Mr. Xia, you are welcome!"
"I'm David Lowhill, nice to meet you"
Xia Yu smiled and shook hands with Rosill, and said politely: "Mr. David Rosill, hello!"
"Mr. Xia, my uncle is getting older and it is not very convenient to move. I am waiting for you in the living room now. Please forgive me!
Hearing David Rohill's "explanation", Xia Yu sneered secretly in his heart, but his face remained calm, smiled and said "understanding", and walked in with him on his behalf.
Sure enough, sitting on the sofa in the middle of the magnificent living room was an old man with age spots and gray hair. Xia Yu recognized it at a glance. It was Guy Lowhill.
"Mr. Xia, this is Guy Lowhill. I heard Jacob talk about you..."
...
After greeting each other briefly, Xia Yu sat on the sofa on the left hand side under the greeting of Guy Rohill.
Guy Rohill and his nephew David Rohill are sitting on the sofas in the middle and right.
"Mr. Xia, this month, the Bright Fund is the focus of France. Congratulations on having another company with great potential!"
Guy Rohill said kindly.
If Xia Yu didn't know how ferocious Guy Rohill was, he would definitely think he was a kind old man based on his appearance.
"Thank you!"
Xia Yu said with a faint smile: "Mr. Guy Rohill, I just feel that the Bright Fund has been in France for so long, and there is no company that can be known. So I tried to make a name for the Bright Fund and catch up with the expensive. The family's reputation in the financial field."
"As for whether this company has great potential, I'm not sure. Who in the world can be 100% sure of a company's future?"
Guy Rohill laughed and said meaningfully: "Maybe Mr. Xia can do it for you."
"From the perspective of your rise, you seem to have a pair of magical hands, and none of the companies you like have ever lost money!"
Xia Yu hurriedly shook his head and denied: "Mr. Guy Rosill, you look up to me. This is too exaggerated. I have experienced a lot of failures, but I have a stronger vanity. So it was deliberately hidden."
Guy Roshir smiled, and did not argue with Xia Yu again.
He asked softly: "Mr. Xia, do you have any business for us this time?"
Facing Guy Rohill’s muddy but seemingly able to see through eyes, Xia Yu gradually reduced his smile, and slowly shook his head and said: “There is no business for the time being, but this time, I think it’s possible The family reached a cooperation."
"After all, your family has helped me a lot in the past, and I have always kept it in my heart We Chinese have an old saying, "The grace of dripping water, when the spring is repaid"."
"This has always been regarded as the rule of life by me."
"So even though your family didn't find me, when I learned that I might help your family, I took the initiative to come."
"Even if I really can't help in the end, then I will try my best, and I will not feel guilty in my heart!"
Xia Yu's words were very high-sounding, and he looked sincere, as if he was really here to help.
But Guy Rosier, who had a ghost in his heart, or made it clear, didn't take it seriously. He narrowed his eyes and said with a gentle smile: "Mr. Xia, thank you for your enthusiasm."
"In what way do you want to cooperate with us?"
Facing the scorching gazes of Guy Lowhill and David Lowhill, Xia Yu calmly said, "I heard that the French government seems to be planning to nationalize Edmund Lowhill Bank? Is that true? "
As soon as Xia Yu's words came out, the faces of Guy Roshir and David Roshir became cold. Guy Roshir even looked at Xia Yu with cold eyes for a moment, even though he immediately hid it. He got up, but Xia Yu still noticed it.
For a while, the atmosphere in the living room gradually became serious.
Although Li Wuming, who was sitting next to Xia Yu, looked as usual, the muscles under his clothes were all tense.
