Chapter 440 Buying a Yacht and Free Unspoken Rules(2/3)
The Ikana ship is worth over 100 million US dollars.
But if someone checks carefully, they will find that the world's richest man does not even have a private yacht to his name.
This is mainly because Abel didn't like going to sea very much before.
Except when I first started my career, I was invited by Ovitz to go out to sea for a day and a night.
It has been almost three years now, and he has only been to sea very few times.
But people's interests always change, after the last visit to the "Mighty Donkey".
Abel has developed some interest in large luxury yachts.
He asked Smith Intelligence Group to help him find a manufacturer of luxury yachts.
In a pile of lists, Smith Intelligence's recommendation for the Beneteau Group ranks high.
After Abel read the information on Smith Intelligence Group.
For a certain purpose, I chose to order a yacht from the Beneteau Group.
This is how today, Carla Jaeger-Bernardeau traveled thousands of miles away to provide door-to-door service.
"Dear Smith, you don't have to worry. We at Beneteau have served many distinguished guests. As long as you communicate with me about the yacht's facilities, decoration preferences, etc., I can come up with a preliminary proposal for you on the spot.
sketch."
Carla said seriously, "Your yacht will definitely be one of the best luxury yachts in the world!"
After saying that, 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 in Beneteau, from the inside out.
From artistic design drawings to actual photographed samples, as well as specially decorated versions customized and modified by customers.
Carla continued to introduce seriously:
"Mr. Smith, for the hundred-foot-class luxury sailboat you need, we recommend this one - the Beneteau Lagoon catamaran custom-made. It is now our Beneteau Group's most high-end luxury sailing flagship model. It is used in regattas
The record that has been broken in history has been surpassed by no one so far, and it is one of the milestones in the history of navigation.”
"At the beginning, we were recognized by many princes and princes in the desert area with this drawing. Look here, here are photos of the finished products purchased by other customers..."
Carla tried her best to appear more professional.
She wanted the world's richest man to purchase as many products from the Beneteau Group as possible.
Also because in Abel's consultation on Beneteau, in addition to ordering a special yacht.
In other respects, I mainly want to buy Beneteau’s most powerful luxury sailboat.
I don’t know what the requirements are for the special yacht Abel wants to order.
Carla focused her marketing efforts entirely on Beneteau's expertise in manufacturing luxury sailboats, the world's number one.
In this field, Beneteau is unrivaled in the world.
Azimu, Riva, etc., can't compare to Beneteau.
But during the introduction, Carla also discovered.
This super rich guy who was a little too handsome had only glanced at the drawings he had taken out at the beginning.
Other times, when he was introducing himself, he seemed to be staring at me.
This made Carla think to herself, Abel Smith wouldn't want to do something to her...that, that, that, that.
Whether it is rumors among the rich and elite, or news reported by the media.
This gentleman's reputation with women is really not very good.
Carla also felt that it was quite normal for him to have certain thoughts about her.
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 turn into France in the future.
But now, France is still dominated by Gauls and is a white country different from the Germanic Ansa people.
Among the traditional French beauties that ordinary Chinese people can see, the first two are Isabelle Adjani, Rose of France, and Sophie Marceau, Kiss of France.
Carla's appearance is a bit like a combination of Adjani and Alizee, except Carla looks younger.
She is a Gallic beauty who is both beautiful and delicate, and delicate but also has a bit of a Roman look.
Precisely because he is not bad looking and has a good figure. In addition, Abel is famous, so he still keeps staring at him.
As the introductions continued, Carla began to panic a little.
[What if he makes demands on me...]
[I should refuse, I am not that kind of woman...]
[But if I refuse, will he become angry? If he takes the opportunity to retaliate, it will make my father and I’s situation at home even more embarrassing.]
[Lord, what should I do? Father, if it were you at this time, what would you do? 】
【……】
In her panic, she forgot that her father, as a man, was determined not to be as worried as she was now.
Um... I can't seem to say that. In a few years, even men will be in danger in the United States...
Just when Carla started to make big mistakes, she read the data of some yachts and sailboats incorrectly.
Abel, who had been misunderstood, finally spoke.
"Ms. Beneteau, let's put aside the matter of ordering yachts and sailing boats for now. How about we discuss another matter?"
Carla bit her silver teeth and thought, here it comes.
It was at this time that she made up her mind.
After all, I can’t bear to let my child trap the wolf...
What's more, he is so handsome, so I don't seem to be at a disadvantage.
She was thinking this in her mind and whispered nervously:
"Mr. Smith, what do you want to discuss?"
"As far as I know, Miss Beneteau, your father is Mr. Andre Beneteau, right?"
"Huh? Well...yes." Carla nodded a little off guard.
She didn't know why this "famous" gentleman suddenly mentioned her father's name.
"Mr. Andre Beneteau was once the chairman of the Beneteau Group. But three years ago, I heard that he was in a car accident and is now paralyzed at home. Is this true?"
Carla couldn't help but pursed her beautiful lips, and said in a somewhat difficult voice:
"Yes, Mr. Smith, you are right. These French newspapers have reported it. But why do you mention this? My father has nothing to do with your ordering Beneteau products, right?"
In fact, Carla herself dropped out of college in a hurry after her father's accident and went to work in the Beneteau Group.
The daughter of the former chairman is very marginalized in the group's work.
What is contained in it, even the simple Carla three years ago could know.
Three years later, Carla heard an outsider, an American, suddenly mention this incident.
Naturally, she was confused and became wary.
"So……"
Abel laughed, "I want to talk to you about Beneteau..."
He and Carla talked for about ten minutes.
Ten minutes later.
Carla was nervous and excited before coming, vowing to get the list of the world's richest man.
When leaving, he looked uneasy and was led out by the bodyguards of Rock Security.
Wait until she is gone.
Abel said to David next to him and Allen who appeared when Carla came in just now: "Is this okay?"
David just smiled, because it was not his duty as a big butler to answer questions like this from his boss.
Allen quickly responded: "That should be enough. The internal fighting in the Beneteau family has even been heard by industry personnel in the United States. According to the information we found, the car accident that caused Andre Beneteau to be half paralyzed
, it is most likely the work of his sister, Annity Bernardo Hus. This lady is nicknamed "Bloody Mary" in the French business community."
Abel nodded after hearing this.
Why, as an American, wants to customize a luxury yacht, why doesn't he go to a local American yacht manufacturer?
Instead of going to traditional brands like Azimut, Ferretti and Riva, go to the Beneteau Group instead?
Beneteau Group's technology is indeed very good, that's right.
But apart from sailing boats, in the field of luxury yachts, it cannot compare with those traditional luxury brands in all aspects except technology.
To be continued...
