Chapter 684 First time in Cannes

The French town of Cannes, a beautiful place with palm beaches and pure sea water.

This was once a small fishing village for Parisians to come to fish in summer.

Later, as the back garden of Paris, the fashion capital, Cannes was favored by the Ministry of Culture and spent decades to create a dazzling movie symbol. From the beginning, it focused on cultivating its obvious temperament that distinguishes itself from Hollywood and Oscars. It always retains its own romantic mood and artistic luster behind the smell of money, making the icons of the two palm leaves a warranty label for movie fans when purchasing audio-visual products.

Cannes is such a place where worshiping masters will suddenly give young people a chance; it is full of business torrents, but it also sticks to the dam of art. All of this has made others and Cannes itself successful.

Paris, Charles de Gaulle Airport.

Zhu Shisan and Dong Xue picked up the road at the airport, and then the three of them took T to Cannes.

On the train, Zhu Shisan told Bian Xuedao that Pei Tong and the general manager of the winery, Daimas, had already gone to Cannes to play in front of the station, and followed Pei Tong's boyfriend Hong Chengfu.

Bian Xuedao asked: "In Cannes, the Federation has no one except me?"

Zhu Shisan said: "There are two more owners who will go there, but they are basically the ones who will be the introducer for you. Only you are qualified to represent the Federation to attend official events."

Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "This is what he said..."

Zhu Shisan also smiled and said, "This is the capital world. You are the owner of one of the five famous houses, so you are qualified. They are foils. Of course, I am also foils."

The words are rough, but the truth is not rough.

Frank enough, straightforward enough.

At this moment, Bian Xuedao thought Zhu Shisan was a very interesting person.

This is the first time Bian Xuedao comes to Cannes.

With just one look, he became fascinated by this coastal town.

In other words, Bian Xuedao really likes the lazy, leisurely, aristocratic atmosphere and diversified international elements like European towns.

The group of three people did not rush to go to the hotel, but wandered around the small town, looking at the blue sea, enjoying the flowers that never fade in the four seasons, and using their eyes to discover the wind at every turn

Standing on the bell tower at the highest point of the old city, looking out at the Bay of Cannes and the Esteerle mountains, the vast blue of the Mediterranean and the spectacular magnificence of sails that make people almost forget to breathe.

During the film festival, hotels in Cannes were surprisingly expensive.

An ordinary five-star hotel, the price of one room is about 8,000 yuan per night, and the most luxurious suite in a five-star hotel with ideal location and environment is also 8,000 yuan per night, but the currency has to be exchanged for US dollars. It is precisely because the accommodation costs of Cannes are too high that Europeans walking with sleeping bags can be seen everywhere on the streets.

When Pei Tong booked a hotel, she could not book an ordinary five-star hotel. The hotel she booked in Mathistic, which cost 13,000 yuan per night. It is really expensive, but it also has advantages. The environment and scenery are excellent. Moreover, this hotel has a private beach and a marina, which is only open to hotel guests.

After resting in the hotel for a few hours, Bian Xuedao pulled Dong Xue, Pei Tong and Hong Chengfu out again, just like a child being excited.

Hong Chengfu is knowledgeable. Pei Tong has lived in France for many years and is relatively immunized to some things. Bian Xuedao and Dong Xue are obviously worse, and they are simply lingering in the Binhai Avenue, which is full of sunset.

On the Coastal Avenue parallel to the Mediterranean Sea, there are many world-class brand stores, Dta, ca, Eudh... Whether it is high-end ready-to-wear, jewelry, leather goods, bags, and all kinds of top fashions make people feel the desire to have without realizing it.

The two women went to buy it. Bian Xuedao and Hong Chengfu each ordered a cup of coffee. They sat under the vineyard on the side of the road, watching the people walking lazily on the soft beach, and watching the harbor where old brigs and modern yachts were moored side by side.

Touching the coffee cup with his finger, Bian Xuedao asked Hong Chengfu: "How many people will stay because they fall in love with this place and wake up every day in the room facing the sea and sunny."

Hong Chengfu took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "There must be many people who think so, but not many people who are able to do it. Ninety-nine percent of those who are able to do it have been used to the beauty and prosperity. There are many alternatives for them to choose their place of residence. And when these people make choices, they mainly consider 80% of them not facing the sea and full of sunshine."

Bian Xuedao looked at several sexy girls in bikini swimsuits posing on the beach and asked casually: "What are they mainly considering?"

Hong Chengfu followed Bian Xuedao's gaze and said, "These girls who took photos are here to realize their dreams."

Bian Xuedao turned his head and asked, "Realize your dream?"

Hong Chengfu nodded and said, "Most of them come from all over the world, hoping to be spotted by a major director or film dealer here, and then realize their dream of becoming a movie star."

Bian Xuedao looked at the beach again and said, "Is this a show of sales?"

Hong Chengfu said: "Yes, every June, big-name directors and stars from all over the world gather here, and wealthy businessmen are gathered. As long as they are attracted by any of them, they can leave their current lives."

After listening to it, Bian Xuedao thought for a few seconds and asked, "You haven't said what are the main considerations for those successful people when choosing their place of residence."

Hong Chengfu raised his hand and asked the waiter to refill him. He turned around and said, "The main consideration is two words - interests."

Without waiting for Bian Xuedao to continue, Hong Chengfu continued: "You should have heard that there are a large number of celebrities living in a certain city and an area. You should have heard gossip tabloids report who is neighbors who and who are neighbors."

Bian Xuedao nodded: "I've heard it."

Hong Chengfu said: "That's it. Living close to each other and being a neighbor is also a kind of circle."

Bian Xuedao said: "What I think is to stay away from all circles one day and stay completely in seclusion."

Watching the waiter leave with a cup of coffee, Hong Chengfu gently stirred the coffee spoon: "You finally said it."

Bian Xuedao was stunned and asked, "What did you say?"

Hong Chengfu said: "I have communicated with Lao Shen and said that you have a strong sense of being at ease with small wealth. Of course, I said this is not a derogatory meaning. But one thing we must admit is that you should be considered a mid-rich now, but the growth of wealth has not completely transformed your thoughts. You just said that you want to leave all circles and completely live in seclusion. I can hear that is your true words. In fact, you have expressed this meaning before, that is, you said you want to retire on Mars."

Bian Xuedao nodded: "I said that."

Hong Chengfu said: "Retirement on Mars is essentially a kind of seclusion. At that time, Lao Shen and I were deceived by your context and thought that retirement on Mars was the goal you used to motivate yourself. Now, it is a true reflection of your heart."

Bian Xuedao smiled and said, "I feel a little ashamed when you say it."

Hong Chengfu said: "It is normal for the differences in concepts to exist. There is no right or wrong, only appropriate or inappropriate."

Bian Xuedao said: "Where is inappropriate if you live in seclusion?"

Hong Chengfu said: "Old Shen and I estimated that it is not a winery. With your current wealth, including the land in your hands, Zhiwei Technology and other industries, it has entered the top 60 of the mainland rich people. With the current foundation, as long as you can't make a mistake, it will not be too difficult to wait for you to be 40 years old in more than ten years, and it will not be too difficult to enter the top 100."

Seeing Bian Xuedao listening very seriously, Hong Chengfu continued: "A person with a net worth of 10 billion, are you thinking of putting money in the bank one day to live with interest?

Bian Xuedao pursed his lips and was speechless for a moment.

He really thought about it that way

Hong Chengfu said: "At that time, your money should be placed in investment banks, not banks. But in investment banks, you must always pay attention to economic trends and collect as much information as possible. You need to be friends with celebrities and attend various parties. Do you think you can still live in seclusion?"

Dong Xue and Pei Tong are back.

Both women were full of hands.

Dong Xue put down the bag, sat down and rubbed her calves and said, "I'm so tired of walking."

Pei Tong also sat down, looked at Dong Xue and said, "There is a spa in the hotel. Let's go back together later."

Hong Chengfu asked the waiter to check out the bill, then looked at Bian Xuedao and said with a smile: "Lend your light, stay in this hotel, and when I go back, I will also enjoy the legendary spa."

Bian Xuedao was confused and asked, "What does it mean to borrow my light?"

Pei Tong glanced at Hong Chengfu and said with a smile: "During the film festival, the supply of rooms is in short supply. Many high-end hotels have temporary regulations. People with a certain status and popularity must be included in the list of distinguished guests and check on a certain floor."

Bian Xuedao pointed at himself and said, "I am a distinguished guest?"

Pei Tong said: "Originally, your name is not a distinguished guest, but adding the titles of the owner of the Hongyanrong Winery and Vice Chairman of the Bordeaux Federation are definitely a distinguished guest in the French territory."

Bian Xuedao suddenly said: "Didn't the organizing committee arrange hotels for the official guests?"

Pei Tong said: "You came too late, so I let Daimas move in. The three generations of Damas serve at the winery and have a wide range of communication. It means that the winery can contact us in advance.

Back at the hotel, two winery owners who came to Cannes to assist Bian Xuedao were waiting in the lobby, wishing Thirteen to accompany them.

Both owners are French, one in his sixties and the other in his 30s. Both families are wineries inherited from the family.

The group came to the hotel reception area, Pei Tong became an interpreter, and after twenty minutes of communication, the two owners of the manor said goodbye and left.

Bian Xuedao looked at Pei Tong and said, "It seems that my mission this time is very simple."

Pei Tong said: "The official activities of the Federation are indeed very simple."

Hong Chengfu said: "The top film festival is the top fame and fortune. Everyone comes for fame and fortune. How can it be simple?"

During the film festival, the hotel in Cannes was brightly lit all night.

The headlights on hundreds of luxury yachts and briggish fishing boats made the harbor bright as daylight.

Sitting in the hotel room, you can hear the bustling noise on the beach not far from the hotel, and the crowds are crowded. With the sound of the waves, Cannes has become a brilliant city that never sleeps.

This time, Dong Xue couldn't sit still.

She pulled Bian Xuedao out, wanting to enjoy the romantic world of two people.

From the Esplanade to the Palazzo de Festival, the Casino logo can be seen everywhere. In fact, since the early 2nd century, the gaming industry in Cannes has been very developed.

These casinos in Cannes are open all day and waiting for big names and tourists from all over the world. Not all big names are gambling in rooms that are extremely private like they are performed in gambling videos. Some people just like the atmosphere in the casino lobby.

By the way, Bian Xuedao and Dong Xue walked into a casino that seemed very popular.

After entering, I found that the casino was a palace-style building with a magnificent decoration and very grand.

After changing to 106 euros of chips, two people who entered the casino for the first time walked around with their arms in their arms.

After roughly walking around, I can be sure that the casino here is playing the most is to play 2l points, slot machines and roulette.

After playing a few roulettes with Dong Xue, I felt that the rules were a little confused. The two of them smiled and looked at each other, shifting the battlefield.

2l point area.

After looking for a while, there happened to be an empty seat, so Pao Xuedao sat down.
