Chapter 2642 Transformation

Hilton on the Seine River, General Manager Julien was waiting in the lobby early. Seeing four Peugeots coming from afar, he hurried to the front door to greet them.

When Feng Yiping was about to get off the car, he saw an old man in a well-dressed suit respectfully opening the door for him, "Dear Mr. Feng, Paris Hilton welcomes you!"

"Hello, thank you," Feng Yiping glanced at the men and women standing next to him, and glanced at Wu Qian.

"General Manager Julien, and senior executives," Wu Qian introduced.

It seemed that she only paid attention to Julien, who had the highest position.

"Mr. Feng, the suite is ready, please follow me," Julien played the role of a room attendant perfectly at this time, and respectfully led the way in front.

"Very good hotel," Feng Yiping just casually praised, which immediately made Julien and his men smile.

As a senior executive of Hilton France, Julien heard the relevant news at the first time, so he also had his own judgment.

Although the current owner Blackstone looks quite powerful, it is completely incomparable with Feng Yiping.

Moreover, I heard that most of the banks on Wall Street, that is, the banks that Blackstone borrowed money from when it acquired Hilton last year, are on Feng Yiping's side this time... With so many peers targeting Blackstone and the current economic downturn, Blackstone is obviously already in a weak position.

In addition to Feng Yiping's outstanding record in mergers and acquisitions, Julien and many other senior executives of Hilton have actually determined that Blackstone may have some means of resistance, but in the end, it will still have to give Hilton, which has not even completed adjustments, to Feng Yiping's company.

Therefore, they will soon become employees under Feng Yiping's command.

As for how fast, it may depend on the arrangement of Mr. Feng. As we all know, Mr. Feng always does the right thing at the right time.

Even if Mr. Feng cannot realize his wish this time, Hilton is still under Blackstone's command. He believes that today's respect will not do any harm.

He bent down and pushed open the door of the suite, and the suite with sunshine, flowers and overlooking the Seine appeared in front of Feng Yiping.

"Please," Julien carefully watched Feng Yiping's reaction. If Feng Yiping showed a hint of dissatisfaction, he would immediately ask someone to make targeted adjustments.

"Very good, I am very satisfied, thank you Julien," Feng Yiping shook hands with him.

It can be seen that the suite must have been specially arranged according to his preferences.

This simple, modern and elegant effect made him feel very familiar, because that was the style he always liked.

Enjoying such thoughtful service, let alone, made him feel good.

He picked up an apple and sat on the sofa by the window. He found that the patterns on the pillows were all Chinese styles that he liked, which made him want to call Julien up again and give him a few euros as a tip.

The phone rang, and Feng Yiping knew what they would discuss as soon as he saw the caller number.

Sure enough, as soon as the call was connected, Jin Ling immediately said, "Why don't you think about it again? Don't let your rare trip to France bring adverse negative impacts to the operations of local companies."

"Relax your mind. Facebook is an American company, a world-renowned American company. Do you think the mayor of Paris has no reason to dare to embarrass such a company?"

"To embarrass Facebook is to embarrass itself."

This is Feng Yiping's true feeling. At least at this time, the US government is indeed very protective of the interests of American multinational companies in the world.

It is mainly very direct, and it seems that it is indeed more powerful than us.

Considering Facebook's strength and influence, it is not easy for Bertrand Delanoe to trip it up.

Politicians are the best at measuring gains and losses. If Bertrand Delanoe targets Facebook because Feng Yiping doesn't want to see him, frankly speaking, he can't win the election for mayor of Paris.

But Jin Ling is right. He won't specifically target it, but he doesn't rule out doing something bad when there is an opportunity.

But such opportunities, as you can imagine, won't be many.

"Okay, then it's up to you," seeing his firm attitude, Jin Ling didn't insist on his own opinion.

The reason why she always makes such reminders is just to try to prevent Feng Yiping from getting too proud.

In fact, she also has a very bad impression of the mayor of Paris.

She also feels that with Feng Yiping's current strength, there is really no need to pay too much attention to this mayor, unless it is the one in the Elysee Palace.

"I think that sometimes our country is still a little too face-conscious, and always holds itself up, unable to let go of its airs," Feng Yiping said again.

Bertrand Delanoë, the mayor of Paris, is, to be honest, the same as Sarkozy.

After being elected as the President of France last year, Sarkozy decided to make his first visit to Asia in our country at the end of last year, and broke the convention that even if he visited the United States and Russia after taking office, he would go and return on the same day and never stay overnight. He stayed in China for more than 60 hours with his girlfriend and his mother.

The results were also fruitful. In these more than 60 hours, he received orders of more than 20 billion euros, which is more than 300 million euros per hour. At that time, he also stated that he would book tickets for this year's Olympic Games first.

But soon after returning to China, he immediately changed his face and stood with the United States on issues including exchange rate, human rights and Iran's nuclear issue, and criticized us.

He also said that whether to attend the opening ceremony of the Olympics should be considered comprehensively.

Bertrand Delanoe was not much better. In 2004, when France was bidding for the 2012 Olympics, he visited China as the mayor of Paris and kept saying, "I like Chinese culture very much," "When bidding for the 2008 Olympics, we lost to China, and I have great respect for China," "We firmly believe that the Chinese Olympics will be successful, and we will spare no effort to provide China with any help it needs,"...

At that time, many domestic media labeled him as an international friend who was very friendly to us.

As a result, when the Olympic torch was passed in Paris at the beginning of last month, this guy stood on the opposite side of us and hung a banner supporting that group of people on the Paris City Hall, causing the torch to be extinguished for safety reasons when the Olympic flame was passed to the Paris City Hall...

He also announced that he would meet the guy who ran to India at an appropriate time and grant him the title of "Honorary Citizen" of Paris.

My great country cares about its face and it is not easy to put down its airs to deal with him, but how could Feng Yiping give this guy face?

"You are done, these things are not your concern," Jin Ling immediately said to Feng Yiping, "and don't think about targeting him in the next activities,"

She really hit Feng Yiping's little thoughts.

"You are going to travel to Paris with your favorite female star, and you still have the heart to think about these things?"

"Come back early after playing,"

"Hey, am I playing, I am working... Hello, hello?" Feng Yiping listened to the hung up call, am I really working, okay?

"Why is it so difficult to do something?" Feng Yiping muttered, biting a big hole in the apple.

But the most difficult people are the three in San Francisco at this time.

In the conference room of Twitter, Dorsey and the other three were frowning at this time.

"How did things get to the point now?" Stone seemed to be talking to himself.

Yes, how did things suddenly get to the point now?

A few days ago, Masayoshi Son was busy trying to invest in them, and Feng Yiping's Facebook was also contacting them everywhere to target them.

Although the pressure was quite high at that time, at least they were the center of attention from all parties.

Why did Feng Yiping and Softbank suddenly put their focus on Yahoo, and no one cared about them?

Feng Yiping didn't say anything, but Softbank took the initiative to contact them the day before yesterday, and the meaning was somewhat clear. They hoped to have an in-depth discussion with Softbank on the issue of financing, but until now, they have not received any response from Softbank.

This seems to be a sign of no response.

They all knew very well that if there was no investment coming in, they really couldn't hold on.

Because of this, Dorsey had no interest in socializing and spent time on clothing design these two days, and Williams rarely targeted Dorsey these two days.

But this still couldn't change the difficult situation they were facing.

Williams scratched his head, "Softbank should be raising funds for the acquisition of Yahoo,"

"So," Stone looked at them, "Should we contact Zuckerberg again?"
