  Chapter 440 Buying a Yacht, Free Unspoken Rules

  Ten minutes ago.

  Hong Kong Island, Standing Street, Central, in front of Lu Yu Tea House.

  Carla Yeager Beneteau, she raised her head nervously, and looked at the sign above the tea room.

  The traditional Chinese character "Lu Yu Tea Room" on the signboard, Karla didn't know it.

   Fortunately, under the Chinese signboard, the English name of Lu Yu Tea House is written in very eye-catching English.

   This makes Karla not completely incomprehensible.

  Last night, Carla rushed over from France overnight.

   Now looking at this signboard, she guessed in her heart that this should be a kind of existence similar to French cafes.

  Chinese people like to drink tea, even if she is French, she has heard of it.

  After passing through the security check and search by the female bodyguard, Karla entered this very flavorful Chinese teahouse smoothly.

  In the corridor inside the teahouse, Karla nervously waited for the call of the richest man in the world inside.

  She is one of the sales managers of the luxury yacht department of the French Beneteau Group, mainly for the rich in the United States.

  Her position is relatively deserted within the Beneteau Group.

  Because even if Beneteau’s luxury yachts are well built, their acceptance in the wealthy circle has always been much lower than that of traditional luxury yacht manufacturers such as Azimut, Betty, Ferretti, and Riva.

   What's more, American rich people prefer traditional luxury brands such as Azimut and Ferretti more than Europeans.

   When it comes to luxury and advanced customization, the New World has never been able to compete with the old Europe.

   No matter how good the technology of the Beneteau Group is, its reputation in the United States is also very poor.

  Even in Europe itself, that's the case.

  So it is conceivable that the sales department of the yacht subsidiary of the Beneteau Group is still in charge of the American field, and Carla's work in the Beneteau Group is quite uncomfortable.

  As the saying goes, misfortune depends on blessings, and blessings depend on misfortunes.

  Because she was in charge of a rich man from the United States, Carla's performance has been poor.

   This has made it difficult for her, who has an excellent background, to stand out within the group.

  However, a few days ago, the yacht company of the Beneteau Group received an order intention from the United States.

  A company called the Smith Family Fund submitted a purchase intention to the Beneteau Group.

   claims that the company intends to order several luxury sailing yachts and customize an ultra-luxury yacht in the Beneteau Group.

   This is the Beneteau Group, a rare order from a wealthy American luxury yacht.

  The Beneteau Group attaches great importance to this, and Karla is in charge of this field, which makes her even more delighted.

   Wait for the Beneteau Group to figure out the true identity of this guest, after he is the richest man in the world, Abel Smith.

   Karla's job was even almost taken away by someone.

  Because of Abel Smith's relationship, the deserted department instantly became a popular department.

   Fortunately, she has a very strong relationship and can't get ahead, but it's not so easy for others to steal her things.

  Guests request Beneteau Group's door-to-door service.

  Carla Yeager Beneteau rushed over from France overnight in ecstasy.

  She first ran to New York and found out that Abel had gone to Han.

   After she didn't take a break, she immediately ran to Seoul.

   It was discovered that Abel had left Seoul and went to Hong Kong Island.

  Karla worked tirelessly, chasing after Abel's ass, and rushed from Seoul to Xiangjiang overnight.

   For several days in a row, most of her time was almost spent in the sky...

   Fortunately, this time, she was finally on Hong Kong Island and waited for Abel.

   Now she is going to come to Abel, as a yacht order consultant sent by the Beneteau Group, to provide door-to-door service for Abel.

  In the corridor of Lu Yu's tea room, I waited for about a few minutes.

  Carla, who was a little nervous, was finally notified that she could go inside to meet the richest man in the world.

  Karla didn't rush in, but first picked up the small cosmetic mirror she carried with her to check her appearance.

   After finding out that there was nothing wrong with it, she took a deep breath and walked inside with vigor.

   Halfway she met Huo Yiguan who came out.

  Lao Huo is not tall, only reaching Karla's shoulders wearing high heels.

  The old man nodded to her politely, and Karla responded with a smile.

   After responding, Karla appeared in front of Karla within two steps.

   Surrounded by several bodyguards and some assistants, Abel was sitting alone at a classical Chinese dining table, tasting delicious Cantonese dim sum skillfully with chopsticks.

   "Boss, Miss Beneteau is here."

   Karla saw a man who looked like a housekeeper, leaned over to Abel Smith, and said respectfully and softly.

   Karla has seen this man who looks like a housekeeper.

   It was this man who went to the French headquarters of the Beneteau Group in person.

  In the headquarters, even the lady chairman and the CEO are respectful in front of him.

   I didn't expect this kind of character to be just a housekeeper.

  Karla thought about it for a while, but soon understood.

  That is the butler of the richest man in the world, facing such a butler.

   It seems understandable that the chairman of the Beneteau Group accompanied him personally.

   Karla was thinking wildly, watching Abel's attention shift from the delicious food to herself.

  Even though she has done mental construction for a long time, Karla still feels a little nervous at the moment.

  She also finally saw Abel Smith's face.

   is too handsome.

   Karla thought to herself.

   Anna Wintour said that he is alive, the incarnation of Apollo walking in the world, it seems that he is not talking nonsense.

   "Hi, Miss Beneteau. I'm Abe Smith. Nice to meet you."

   Karla saw him smiling and saying hello to herself.

  Although I was very nervous, I had been preparing for so long after all.

  Karla was unrecognizable, and took a deep breath.

"Mr. Smith, hello, my name is Carla Yeager Beneteau. Now I am the director of Beneteau Yachts, North America. Our Beneteau Yachts is the world's top yacht brand. I brought our Sketches of some of the best work from our designers. This yacht of yours, we will be sure to present it perfectly to your liking!"

  This long opening remark, to be honest, Karla had actually recited it for a long time before meeting Abel.

   At this time, I read it all in one breath, very smoothly.

   Karla himself was relieved.

  When she saw the handsome man in front of her, she smiled and nodded:

   "The reason why I didn't go to Azimut, Ferretti, but Beneteau was because I fell in love with you."

   Beneteau Group is the world's number one sailboat manufacturer and one of the world's largest powerboat manufacturers.

   However, its luxury yacht department was only established in the 1980s.

  Back when brands such as Azimut and Riva were already world-renowned.

  Beneteau is still just a small company in France that produces fishing boats and sailboats.

  After the death of founder Benjamin Beneteau, it even almost went bankrupt.

  Later, in the 1960s, Benjamin Beneteau's granddaughter, Anetti Beneteau Huss, and her younger brother Andel Beneteau, the two siblings began to manage the company.

  Since then, Beneteau began to rise, and it took less than 40 years to become one of the largest powerboat manufacturers in France and even in Europe.

  Abel approached the Beneteau Group. One of his goals was to order his first personal yacht from this company, which is technologically advanced in all aspects and only short of some well-known names.

   That’s right, my first yacht.

  Although Abel bought a yacht "Ivanka" for Ikana, Anne, Jessica and the others also have their own yachts.

   He sent them all.

   They are also very luxurious, worth tens of millions of dollars.

  The Ikana ship is worth more than 100 million U.S. dollars.

   But if someone checks carefully, they will find that the richest man in the world does not even have a private yacht under his name.

   This is mainly because Abel didn't like going to sea very much before.

  Except for being invited by Ovitz to go out to sea for a day and a night when he first started.

   It has been almost three years now, and the number of times he has gone to sea is very few.

   But people's interests will always change, since the last visit to the "Mighty Donkey".

  Abel became interested in large luxury yachts.

  He asked the Smith Intelligence Group to help him find a manufacturer of luxury yachts.

  Among a bunch of lists, the recommendation of the Smith Group to the Beneteau Group is at the forefront.

  Abel read the materials of the Smith Intellectual Group.

  For a certain purpose, I chose to order a yacht from the Beneteau Group.

  This led to today's scene of Carla Yeager Bernardo traveling thousands of miles to provide door-to-door service.

"Dear Smith, you don't have to worry. We, Beneteau, have served many distinguished guests. As long as you communicate with me about the yacht's facilities, decoration preferences, etc., I can give you a preliminary proposal on the spot. sketch."

  Carla said seriously, "Your yacht will definitely be one of the best luxury yachts in the world!"

   After she finished speaking, she took out a set of albums from the bag that had been checked by security. They were all pictures of the most cutting-edge and most beautiful yachts from the inside to the outside of Beneteau yachts.

  From artistic design drawings to actual photos taken, there are also special decoration versions that have been customized and modified by customers.

   Karla continued to introduce seriously:

"Mr. Smith, the 100-foot luxury sailing yacht you need, we recommend this - Beneteau Lagoon Custom Catamaran, it is now our Beneteau Group, the most high-end luxury sailing flagship model. It is in the regatta The record broken, which no one can surpass so far, is one of the milestones in the history of navigation."

   "Back then, with this drawing, we were approved by many princes and princes in the desert area. Look here, this is a photo of the finished product purchased by other customers..."

   Karla tried her best to look more professional.

  She wants the richest man in the world to purchase as many products from the Beneteau Group as possible in her own hands.

   Also because of Abel's consultation with Beneteau, in addition to ordering a special yacht.

  Other aspects, the main reason is to buy the strongest luxury sailboat in Beneteau.

   Don't know what exactly is required for the special yacht that Abel wants to order.

  Carla put the main focus of sales on the world's number one luxury sailboat manufacturing that Beneteau is best at.

   In this field, Beneteau is globally invincible.

  Azimut, Riva, etc., are all inferior to Beneteau.

   But in the introduction, Karla also found out.

  This super rich man who is a bit too handsome, he only glanced at the blueprints he took out at the beginning.

  Other times, when he was introducing himself, he seemed to be staring at him all the time.

  It made Karla think that Abel Smith could not be trying to treat herself... so and so.

  Whether it's rumors from the elite circle of the rich or the news reported by the media.

  This gentleman's reputation in terms of women is really not very good.

   Karla also felt that he had some thoughts about her, which was very normal.

   Carla has always been very confident about her looks and appearance.

  She is a typical French beauty.

  Although France is becoming more and more "black" now, it will continue to be "black" in the future, and it may not necessarily become Francestan in the future.

   But now, France is still dominated by Gauls, a Caucasian country that is different from the Germanic Ansa family.

  Ordinary Chinese people, the traditional French beauties that can be seen, are the French Rose Isabella Adjani and the French Kiss Sophie Marceau.

  Karla's appearance is slightly like the combination of Adjani and Alizee, but Karla looks younger.

  Belongs to the beautiful and delicate Gaul beauty with a little Roman appearance.

   Precisely because he looks good and has a good figure. In addition, Abel is famous, and he is still staring at himself.

  Introduction, Karla began to panic a little.

  【What if he asks me...】

  【I should refuse, I'm not that kind of woman...】

  【But if I refuse, will he become angry? If he took the opportunity to retaliate, it would make the situation with my father at home even more embarrassing. 】

  【Lord, what should I do. Father, if it were you at this time, what would you do? 】

  【…】

   In a panic, she even forgot that her father, as a man, was determined not to worry about her now.

  Uh... It seems that I can't say that. After a few years, even men will be a bit dangerous in the United States...

  Just when Carla started to lose her accuracy and misread the data of some yachts and sailboats.

   Abel, who was misunderstood, finally spoke.

   "Miss Beneteau, let's put aside the matter of ordering yachts and sailboats for now. How about we discuss another matter?"

  Karla gritted her silver teeth, thinking that it's coming.

   At this time, she also made up her mind.

   After all, I don’t want my child to be caught by a wolf...

   What's more, he is so handsome, I don't seem to be at a disadvantage.

  Thinking in her heart, she whispered nervously:

   "Mr. Smith, what would you like to discuss?"

   "As far as I know, Miss Beneteau, your father is Mr. Ander Beneteau, right?"

   "Huh? Uh... yes." Karla nodded a little caught off guard.

  She didn't know why this gentleman who was "famous outside" suddenly mentioned his father's name.

   "Mr. Ander Beneteau was once the chairman of the Beneteau Group. But three years ago, I heard that he had a car accident and is now paralyzed at home. Is this true?"

  Karla couldn't help but licked her beautiful lips, and her voice was a bit difficult:

   "Yes, Mr. Smith, you are right. These French newspapers have reported it. But why do you mention this? My father has little to do with your ordering Beneteau products, right?"

  In fact, Karla herself dropped out of university in a hurry after her father's accident and went to work in the Beneteau Group.

  The former chairman's daughter is marginalized in her work in the group.

   What is contained in it, the simple Karla three years ago could know it.

  Three years later, Karla heard an outsider, an American suddenly mention this matter.

  She was naturally puzzled and vigilant again.

"So…"

  Abel laughed, "I want to talk to you, talk about Beneteau..."

  He and Karla talked for about ten minutes.

   Ten minutes later.

  Before coming here, she was nervous and excited, and vowed to get Karla, who was listed as the richest man in the world.

   When he left, he looked uneasy, and was led out by the rock security bodyguards.

   Wait for her to go far away.

  Abel said to David next to him, and Alan who appeared when Carla came in just now: "Is that all right?"

  David just smiled, because it was not his job as a big butler to answer the boss's question.

Allen quickly responded: "It should be fine. The infighting of the Beneteau family has even been heard by people in the industry as far away as the United States. According to the information we have found, the car accident that caused Ander Beneteau to be half paralyzed , it is most likely from the handwriting of his sister Anette Bernardo Huss. This lady has the nickname "Bloody Mary" in the French business circle."

  Abel nodded after listening.

  Why is he an American and wants to customize a luxury yacht instead of going to a local American yacht manufacturer.

   Instead of looking for traditional brands such as Azimut, Ferretti and Riva, go to the Beneteau Group instead?

   Beneteau Group technology is really good, that's right.

  But except for sailing boats, in the field of luxury yachts, except for technology, it is inferior to those few traditional luxury brands in all aspects.

  The reason for abandoning these is to choose Beneteau Group.

  Because in the Smith Group, when they listed the yacht purchasers for Abel.

   On the selection of the Beneteau Group, a note of "organic and mapable" was marked.

  Abel took a look and found out that the internal of the Beneteau Group was very unstable.

  The grandson and granddaughter of the founder Benjamin Beneteau have worked together for more than 30 years to develop the Beneteau Group.

   Between the siblings, there was a terrifying internal conflict within the wealthy family.

  This has led to the possibility of the Beneteau Group, which is not listed, being acquired.

  Now in the 21st century, brands like Ferretti have long been in the hands of major European consortia.

  If Abel wants to make a move, it is almost equivalent to snatching Rolls Royce that has been taken away by BMW and Volkswagen in the luxury yacht industry.

   Need some extra effort.

   Among these luxury yacht dealers, Beneteau is still free for the time being because of his new rise.

  Abel has always had a strong desire for monopoly in all aspects.

   Based on the attitude of getting as much as you can.

  He made an order for the Beneteau Group, and at the same time designated Carla Yeager Beneteau to serve him.

  Because of Carla, she is the great-granddaughter of Benjamin Beneteau, the founder of the Beneteau Group. Her father is Andel Beneteau, who holds a large number of shares in the Beneteau Group.

  Abel just followed the words prepared for him by the Smith Intelligence Group.

   Fooled Karla and asked her to find her father.

  See if you can knock out a crack.

   Thus extending its claws into the power boat manufacturer with the best development momentum in Europe.

   But strictly speaking, Abel’s doing this is just a way of taking advantage of the trend while ordering a yacht.

  It is good to be successful, then he will be able to control the Beneteau Group.

   It doesn’t matter if it is unsuccessful, Abel only needs to make a start, and Smith Intelligence Group and his other companies will accept the corresponding work later.

  Abel only needs to show up now and then, to accept the spoils after a success, or to wrap up after a failure.

  Compared to his single-handed struggle when he first started, the current Abel is entering a new field and new industry.

  Except for the ones he pays special attention to, everything else can already be done.

   Like the merger of Smith Financial Group, he is only responsible for taking the lead, and the specific work has always been done by someone.

  This is actually the practice of most large consortiums, or the chairman of large companies and groups.

  If you do everything yourself, then the chairman of the board will not have to do anything.

   If you have to do everything yourself, the exhausted Zhuge Liang is the best example.

"alright."

  Abel put down his chopsticks, "We're full. Let's go, go see the scenery of the Xiangjiang River, and leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

  He came to Lu Yu Teahouse today, he really came to travel.

   Mainly because he read an online novel before he was reborn.

  In the novel, as soon as the male protagonist appeared on the stage, he would fool people in Lu Yu's teahouse. Later, I read many novels or movies of the same type, and the name of Lu Yu Tea House appeared in them.

  When he thought of Xiangjiang, he thought of the name first.

  So let’s take a look first, and come here to check in.

   Let Karla come over in the middle, it was arranged long ago.

  The appearance of Huo Yiguan was an accident.

   It was the north who sent people to inquire about the news, and wanted to know what he was doing here.

   Now that I am full and have checked in, of course I will continue to the next stop.
