Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

Not long after we ordered the dishes, a white man with a full beard walked in with a smile, looked around and said, "Welcome to God's Gourmet Restaurant. Let me introduce myself. My name is Paco, and I'm the chef of this restaurant."

Liu Fusheng stood up and said, "Thank you Mr. Paco for the invitation. I feel very honored."

Paco looked him up and down and said, "Mr. Liu? Chef Hans called me a few days ago and told me that you are a friend he respects very much. You are coming to Paris, and I have to entertain you well."

After a pause, he added: "I feel honored that you can come here."

The four words "my humble home is filled with glory" are said in Chinese.

Liu Fusheng, Zhu Yuliu Fei all laughed when they heard this.

Paco said: "In addition to Hans, there is another friend who has also heard of Mr. Liu's name for a long time. If you allow me, please let me introduce him to you..."

Liu Fusheng was surprised and said: "It's my honor."

The doubts in his mind were immediately resolved, because Chef Hans's reputation would probably not allow a Parisian chef to personally invite him.

After all, the cultures of the East and the West are different. It is extremely rare that such a grand invitation is issued solely based on personal connections without any conflicts of interest.

As for who wanted to see him in Paris, Liu Fusheng felt that it was most likely related to Jia Guotao.

The other party can let the Bordeaux gang deal with Zhu Yu and Liu Fei, and will most likely use other connections to cause trouble for him, or talk about feelings and let both sides take a step back?

Zhu Yu and Liu Fei also sensed something unusual and both looked at Liu Fusheng.

Liu Fusheng gave them a reassuring look and then looked towards the door.

At this time, the door was opened and a middle-aged foreigner walked into the room with a smile on his face.

His eyes immediately locked onto Liu Fusheng, and he extended his hand and said, "Hello, Mr. Liu? Long time no see!"

Liu Fusheng shook hands with him and said, "Have we met before? Forgive my poor eyesight, but I don't have any impression of you."

If you haven't seen it, it wouldn't be appropriate to say it's been a long time.

The foreigner laughed and said, "We have certainly never met, but we have been friends for a long time. My name is Franklin."

Liu Fusheng felt that the name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

Franklin smiled and explained, "You should still remember that during the food war not long ago, I bought the grain reserves from a Mr. Bai in your country, right?"

It was him!

Liu Fusheng suddenly realized that it was no wonder that he did not have a deep impression of Franklin. The person who communicated with Franklin at the beginning was Bai Rulei, and Liu Fusheng had only had a friendly communication with Franklin over the phone.

Unexpectedly, this guy appeared in Paris.

Franklin continued, "The last cooperation with Mr. Bai was very pleasant. I was also very interested in the man behind Mr. Bai. Later, after some investigation, I found that this person was most likely you, Mr. Liu."

"I was in Europe recently for business talks, and I heard that Mr. Liu led a delegation to visit here, and even went to the Tristan Restaurant in Munich. It just so happened that I had a good relationship with Mr. Hans, the head chef of that restaurant, so I went to Munich to meet with him."

Liu Fusheng figured out the reason why Franklin wanted to make friends with him, and he immediately felt relieved. Since it was Franklin who invited him, it should have nothing to do with Jia Guotao.

Paco said, "I will go to the kitchen now to prepare dishes for the distinguished guests. Excuse me."

It is obvious that the chef only played a matchmaking role in this.

Franklin smiled and said, “Mr. Paco and I are old friends. I asked him for help this time. I hope Mr. Liu doesn’t mind.”

Liu Fusheng said: "Of course I don't mind. I am also honored to meet Mr. Franklin. In addition, let me introduce these two. They are my assistants, Zhu Yu and Liu Fei."

While introducing the two people, Liu Fusheng kept observing Franklin's expression.

The other party did not show any signs of abnormality. Liu Fusheng confirmed that he should have nothing to do with Jia Guotao, and a plan suddenly came to his mind.

Originally, he wanted to use Zhou Zhi's connections to set a trap for Jia Guotao and help Zhu Yu and Liu Fei complete the Fox Hunting Operation.

However, there are some hidden dangers in doing so. If Zhou Zhi's secret is discovered, Liu Fusheng's future enemies will be prepared in advance, which is not conducive to long-term development.

The deeper you hide the cards in your hand, the better. So, is it possible to ask Franklin for help?

With this in mind, Liu Fusheng decided to test Franklin's strength.

Soon, the first dish was served, and Liu Fusheng chatted slowly with Franklin.

Franklin found that Liu Fusheng seemed unwilling to discuss things related to the food war at the dinner table.

So, he changed the topic to something related to Europe: "In Munich, Chef Hans told me that you had a good chat with Mr. Shulman, the vice president of Siemens? I guess the delegation gained a lot of technology and cooperation at Siemens, right?"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "It is indeed very beneficial. We both have the intention to cooperate with each other."

Franklin thought for a moment and said, "As far as I know, your government hopes to reach two cooperation agreements with Siemens, namely military technology and high-speed railways. Am I right?"

Liu Fusheng was quite surprised. This Franklin was quite well-informed and almost guessed the main content of Liu Fusheng's discussion with Shulman.

Ordinary people may think that Simen is a company dedicated to communication technology and electronic products. The most familiar products to the general public are Simen’s small household appliances and communication equipment. But in fact, this company also has considerable strength in the military industry.

Franklin's words have a certain profound meaning.

Liu Fusheng said calmly: "Simon's technology is indeed top-notch in the industry. The prospects for our cooperation are very broad. However, as for me personally, my main focus is still on the inspection team. I want to help East Guangdong Province and introduce some small home appliance production lines."

Franklin looked at him deeply and said, "Well, Mr. Liu, the German incident is in the past, so let's not talk about it for now. Now that you are in France, are you interested in visiting Alstom?"

As a shrewd businessman, Franklin has already smelled a business opportunity from Liu Fusheng.

The Alstom he mentioned is also one of the companies with the best high-speed rail technology in the world.

Liu Fusheng said: "I do have plans to visit Alstom, but compared with Siemens' technology, Alstom is still a little behind."

When he said this, a hint of contempt appeared on his face.

This was Liu Fusheng's test of Franklin. After all, everyone knew that Alstom had always been suppressed by Simen in terms of railway technology, and the outside world said that they were always the runner-up.
