Chapter 1416 Marriage?

Looking at the old woman in front of him, Lin Qian's eyes flashed with surprise.

Originally, he planned to find Bernard to inquire about the Betancourt family after today's fashion show was over, but he didn't expect to meet the current head of the Betancourt family, Francois, here today. Betancourt.

So……

If the old woman in front of me is Françoise Bettencourt, then the young man next to the old woman is her only son, Redupe Bettencourt, the current director of the L'Oreal Group ? !

Lin Qian looked at the two people in front of him, and a thought flashed through his mind.

Later, Lin Qian confirmed his guess through Gaia. The two people standing in front of him were Françoise Bettencourt and Redupe Bettencourt.

Just as Lin Qian's thoughts were spinning, Bernard and Françoise exchanged warm greetings with each other, but Lin Qian could feel that Françoise's visit to Bernard this time should be in her heart It followed things, and the following facts proved that it was indeed the case.

"Chairman Bernard, I came to you this time because I want to discuss something with you."

Françoise was silent for a moment, and then said to Bernard with a slightly formal expression.

"Françoise, your mother and I were very good friends during her lifetime, and our Arnott family and your Betancourt family have always gotten along very well, so you can say anything if you have anything, and you don't need to worry about it." what."

When Bernard heard this, his eyes flickered slightly, but he replied without any hesitation.

"yes……"

"As you said, Chairman Bernard, our two families have always gotten along very well, so I was thinking, can we find an opportunity to make the relationship between our two families go further?"

Françoise smiled slightly, with some deep meaning in her words.

"Go further?"

When Bernard heard this, he frowned slightly, and had some vague guesses in his heart.

"Chairman Bernard..."

"I'll just say it straight, I came here today to propose a marriage to you for my son!"

As the biggest manipulator behind the L'Oreal Group, Françoise is naturally not a coward. She glanced at her son beside her, and then said to Bernard with a smile.

Right after Françoise said this, most of the guests surrounded by Françoise, Bernard and others, who were listening to the situation with their ears pricked up, had expressions of surprise on their faces. .

Propose marriage!

It turned out to be marriage proposal!
One is the Arnott family, which is in charge of the LVMH Group, the world's leading fashion industry, and the Bettencourt family, which is in charge of the L'Oreal Group, the world's leading beauty industry. It will be a big earthquake.

If the two families join forces, the pattern of the global fashion industry and the global beauty industry may change accordingly.

There was some commotion among the people at the scene. At the same time, many people's eyes were on Bernard, including Delfina and the others, including Malina and the others, including Lin Qian.

"Ha ha……"

"Françoise, I don't know which girl from our Arnott family your son has taken a fancy to?"

Facing the attention of everyone, Bernard smiled, but did not give Françoise an answer immediately, but asked in advance. After all, marriage is not a child's play. Even if he is the patriarch of the Arnott family, he can't mess around Order mandarin ducks.

of course……

Although Bernard didn't agree immediately, he didn't refuse immediately either, which showed that Bernard was also somewhat moved by Françoise's marriage proposal.

The Bettencourt family, up to the generation of Redup, is still a single line. If this is not the case, when Lilian Bettencourt dies, it is impossible to directly pass on the directorship to Lilian Bettencourt, who was only 30 years old. Redup.

Under such circumstances, if the legitimate daughter of their Arnott family can marry Redup, then half of the blood flowing in the body of the future heir of the L'Oreal Group is likely to be the blood of their Arnott family.

Such a temptation, even Bernard could hardly refuse.

But everything has advantages and disadvantages. If he agrees to Françoise at this time, then from now on, from the outside world, their Arnott family and the Betancourt family are people in the same trench, and the Pétancourt family is in the same trench. The situation that the Gu family is facing now is not so good.

According to the terms of the Nestle Group's renewal agreement on L'Oreal shares in 2004, both parties are not allowed to increase their holdings of L'Oreal shares during Lillian Betancourt's death and within 6 months after her death. In 6 months, there are only less than 7 days left, which means that after 7 days, the shackles that originally bound the Nestle Group will no longer exist. The situation of the Gu family will become very bad.

Because Nestle Group itself is a larger multinational group than L'Oreal Group, and its strength in all aspects is far superior to that of the Betancourt family. The Betancourt family wanted to marry the Arnott family, obviously a little bit to drag the Arnott family into trouble.

Going it alone, facing the Nestle Group, the Bétancourt family may not be able to win, but if the Arnott family is added, the situation will be reversed in an instant. After all, the Arnott family is a family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. From these years, LVMH The group's frantic annexation of major brands shows its strong capital.

Commercial marriage has both risks and opportunities.

But as far as this matter is concerned, for the Arnott family, the opportunity is obviously greater than the risk, and if the operation is done properly, it is very likely that the Arnott family will make a fortune.

Facing Bernard's question, Françoise smiled, then glanced over Bernard, from Marina and the others one by one, and finally locked on Audrey.

"Chairman Bernard, to be honest, my son has long admired your granddaughter Audrey. I wonder if you would like to let these two children form a beautiful marriage together?"

Françoise fell on Audrey for a moment, her eyes were like a mother-in-law looking at her daughter-in-law, she looked very satisfied, and finally her eyes fell on Bernard again, and she turned her thoughts to Bernard Said it out.

At the same time, Redup, who was standing beside Françoise, never left Audrey's beautiful face for a moment when his mother was speaking, his eyes were full of admiration and possession And the obscenity hidden in the depths of the eyes...
