Before this meeting, Vladimir also specifically asked his secretary Andrei to provide him with basic information about the Charles family.
Compared with the Campbell family, which is a typical radical organization with both wings in politics and business, the Charles family is not interested in the business world. Their energy is either in politics or engaged in charity activities. It can be said that the Charles family is out-and-out
Conservative organization.
There is an irreconcilable natural contradiction between the two organizational factions, conservative organizations and radical organizations.
But what surprised him was that as soon as they met, Charlie directly revealed a lot of information about him.
"Hello, Mr. Vladimir, chairman of the board of directors of ADG Group, owner of the Imperial Hotel and Chelsea Club, and the sole heir of the future Ivan family..."
Obviously, Charlie's words are also a reminder, that is, you know my details, and I also know yours.
"Haha, Mr. Charlie, I didn't expect you to be so familiar with me." Vladimir said with a hearty smile.
Charlie smiled slightly: "This information is provided by the Internet. I must know some of the interests and hobbies of the person I am interviewing today. Otherwise, how can I interview you?"
"Nothing wrong, I hope we can have common hobbies, so that we can be closer." Vladimir knew the status of the Charles family in Ying Kingdom. Currently, the knights in Ying Kingdom are also named according to the Duke and the Prince.
Those who are ranked as Dukes of the Great Ying Empire will definitely have made outstanding historical contributions to this country.
At present, there are 22 dukes in the entire Daei Empire. 12 of them belong to the royal family, and the other 10 are passed down from other noble families.
Therefore, a family that can inherit a hereditary duke in Ying Kingdom is definitely very important.
Vladimir's current development sites are mainly concentrated in Maozi Kingdom, Yingguo and Philippines. In Maozi Country, he has Salkovsky, Petevich and others as his resources. In Philippines, he and
Musala and Russell have a good relationship.
But in Yingguo, he had no background.
Vladimir hopes to establish friendly relations with the Charles family this time.
"Let's start with the exchange of interests and resources first." Faced with Vladimir's suggestion to become a close friend, Charlie said very pragmatically. At present, he is not only one of the leaders of Yingguo's conservative organization, but also
Serves as director of dozens of public welfare organizations.
"I like your frankness." Vladimir actually didn't bother to talk to these guys, and being direct was an excellent way of dealing with them.
"Do you want to work with our family to deal with the Campbell family?" Charlie asked directly.
Vladimir smiled: "I have this idea. When I lack support, it would be best if you can provide me with the necessary help."
"Have we not provided you with the necessary help?" Obviously, Charlie was referring to the mysterious material.
"That was really a big help. Campbell even asked people from radical organizations to go to the Moon Newspaper to cause trouble."
"Mr. Vladimir, you'd better stay hidden and don't let Campbell and the others know that The Moon is your mouthpiece, otherwise you will be very passive."
"It seems you know." Seeing Charlie expose his relationship with the Moon Newspaper, Vladimir was not angry.
"I just found out about it. I have to say that you are an extremely smart man who knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."
"No, Mr. Charlie, it is our human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. As a person from Maozi country, I am traveling in London, and I must protect myself."
"When necessary, our family can provide you with protection."
"Then what can I do for you?"
"Donate to my charity foundation and let the Moon Newspaper serve me. I plan to run for mayor of London." Charlie said with a sly smile.
Charlie was only in his thirties, and his plan was to run for mayor of London and lay a solid foundation for his future. After hearing this, Vladimir had to look at Charlie with admiration.
This guy really has a lot of ambitions and is worthy of being a member of the established aristocracy. He has a very clear plan for his life and will never take any detours.
"Stop planning, Mr. Charlie, I think you are the next Mayor of London."
"Haha..." Charlie finally couldn't help laughing this time, "Vladimir, with your good words, I think we might be able to become very good friends."
"No problem, as long as we are honest with each other."
Suddenly, Charlie handed over a briefcase, "This is a personal profile of the current mayor of London. Man, do you dare to publish it for me?"
"How many media outlets have you found now?"
"Three families."
"That's no problem. I'm happy for us to work together."
"What are your needs?" Vladimir agreed to Charlie's two needs this time without hesitation, but Charlie didn't understand his personal demands.
"I have no personal appeal, I just want to make friends with your family."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple. To be honest, if you don't make demands, I won't dare to cooperate with you." Charlie said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"If you say that, then I really have to mention two things. One is that you helped me make two Yingguo executives of my company become congressmen, and they are also very enthusiastic about participating in charity; the other is that my friend developed a
Regarding high-end real estate, I feel that the Campbell family is very likely to make a fuss in the middle, and will need your help then."
"Guohui's is definitely not good."
“It’s just one level lower than Guohui.”
"That shouldn't be a big problem, as long as they don't have any criminal record, and you also have shares in that high-end real estate, right?" Charlie said with a slight smile.
Vladimir laughed and said, "Mr. Charlie, see through but don't speak out. I believe our interests are consistent when it comes to dealing with the Campbell family."
Indeed, on this point, the interests of the Charles family were completely consistent with his, so Charles responded without hesitation this time.
…
The first thing Vladimir did when he returned to the Imperial Hotel was to call the executives of Ford and Wilton to the office. He told Ford and Wilton to provide their personal criminal certificates as soon as possible.
The parliament will produce new members...
Vladimir didn't say anything unnecessary, but Ford and Wilton already knew his character and temper. As long as the boss spoke, there would be no problem at all.
As a man, especially in a country like a constitutional monarchy, having a certain social status is definitely the dream of most men.
Ford and Wilton are not short of money right now, what they lack is social status.
