Chapter 291 A Ruthless Character Who Dare To Fight With The Royal Family
Walking along the way, Wu Qian found that the decoration style of Harrods department store is not completely uniform. Some exhibition halls are designed with Egyptian palaces, which are full of mystery; It has a very heavy color style, which is extremely calm and restrained.

The transition of the decoration style is smooth and there is no abrupt feeling. In order to create such an excellent visual effect, it is impossible to estimate how many brain cells the designer has consumed.

Finally, Wu Qian and his party came to Harold's tea room on the fourth floor.

There are not many people in Harold's tea room. Different from other dining modes, tasting tea and drinking tea is a slow way of dining. Tourists often choose to come here to taste tea because of their tight schedule.

Wu Qian and Wang Chenchen sat opposite each other. On the exquisite small coffee table in front of them were two saucers, teacups, and desserts that were so exquisite that people couldn't bear to eat them. Baoer and David opened another table not far away.

Wu Qian leaned on the comfortable sofa with his legs crossed, looking through the window lattice at the endless stream of customers in the mall, thinking deeply.

The special welcome, the luxurious decoration style, the unassuming and calm shopping guide service staff, etc. These elements have subverted Wu Qian's inherent perception of shopping malls.

"It's just a department store... As for?"

Wu Qian can't remember how many times he repeated this sentence in his heart. Harold's idea once again verified one of Wu Qian's own principles. When one thing is done to the extreme, all fame and fortune will be lost. Please come.

Seeing that Wu Qian didn't speak, Wang Chenchen kept looking at the beauties from various countries outside the window. Of course, seeing the beauties was her guess.Wang Chenchen felt that this would not work. If she didn't say anything, it would be reckless, so she said, "Wu Qian, what information do you want to know about Harold, let me tell you."

Naturally, Wu Qian didn't know that his image had become a playboy in Wang Chenchen's eyes. After his thoughts were pulled back by Wang Chenchen, he said, "Tell me how you usually introduce to other tourists."

Wang Chenchen tilted her head and thought about it. She felt that it should not be too formulaic. If she serves this boss well, she might get a lot of tips.

Wang Chenchen didn't tell Wu Qian some routines, but picked up some special events.

For example, the most expensive item sold by Harrods so far is a yacht. The luxury yacht is called "Mars Project", which was jointly built by Fincantieri Yachting Company and H2 Yachting Design Company and cost 1.65 million dollars.

As for the price, Wang Chenchen didn't know about it.

Harrods, for example, is a memorial site for admirers of Diana Francis Spencer.

Princess Diana and her last lover, Harrods heir Dodi Fayed, died together in the car accident in France, because Dodi Fayed was the one-time owner of Harrods , two monuments were erected in the mall to commemorate the couple.

The first memorial features photos of the pair, a wine glass with Princess Diana's lips and an engagement ring that Dodi Fayed bought the day before his death.

The second monument is a bronze statue, which is placed next to the Egyptian-style escalator next to the third door of the shopping mall. It was carefully carved by Bill Mitchell, a sculptor who has been an art design consultant for Harrods for more than 40 years. made.

After Wang Chenchen finished talking about this matter, Wu Qian was astonished. He asked, "Diana is a princess! Why do you still have a lover? Do you want to die?"

"Isn't it just dead..." Wang Chenchen sighed in his heart, and then smiled awkwardly but politely on his face, and said: "Wu Qian, Princess Diana broke off her engagement with Prince Charles in 1996, but kept the 'His Royal Highness'. title, her affair with Dodi Fayed came after that."

For Wu Qian's ignorance, Wan Chenchen still understood in her heart. She guessed that Wu Qian should have just been born at that time. Of course, she was too, but she paid attention to these things, so she naturally understood it very clearly.

"But even so, according to the situation you mentioned, if you dare to set up a monument here, can the royal family agree? What shame is there!"

This is the ruthlessness of daring to be tough with the royal family!
Wu Qian found it unbelievable, this is a big matter of face, for some families and people, face and reputation are above everything else.

Wang Chenchen spread his hands, shook his head and said: "Then I don't know the specific situation, anyway, the statue has always existed, and there is no problem..."

"Okay." Wu Qian had a strange expression on his face. Judging from the ideological education he had received and his previous living environment, these things were simply fantasy.

Wang Chenchen was interrupted by Wu Qian, and was momentarily at a loss for words. She thought about it, took out a notebook from her satchel with a smile, pointed to the cartoon character on the notebook and asked, "Wu Qian, do you know this cartoon bear?"

Wu Qian looked at Wang Chenchen speechlessly, and thought, this is too contemptuous, I don't know what Princess Diana's divorce is, but he still knows Winnie the Pooh who is holding a honeypot.

"Hey." Wang Chenchen knew from Wu Qian's expression that the other party should know each other, so he said, "I knew you must know Winnie the Pooh, so do you know how Winnie the Pooh got here?"

"I painted it..." Wu Qian didn't know how to answer this kind of question, and felt a little nonsensical.

"It was created by Alan A. Milne, and Alan A. Milne was inspired to create Winnie the Pooh by Harrods..."

In 1921, when Alan A. Milne was shopping in Harold, he found a plush teddy bear from the toy store, and bought it for his son as a first birthday present.

Later, in 1924, Alan A. Milne's son became good friends with Winnie the Pooh in the zoo, and Alan A. Milne came up with inspiration, based on the plush teddy bear he gave his son at that time. Prototype, creating a series of storybooks with the theme of Winnie the Pooh.

Later, Disney was authorized in 1961, and a classic cartoon image became known to the world.

Wu Qian listened to Wang Chenchen tell these interesting things like listening to a story. Too many interesting things happened in a nearly 200-year-old department store.Wang Chenchen is also very willing to talk, if she just talks about this, she can talk for several days and earn a lot of extra money...

Through chatting with Wang Chenchen, Wu Qian learned that Harrods is really a department store where you can buy everything.

Former U.S. President Reagan received an elephant as a gift when he was governor of California, and this deal was undertaken by Harold; a British businessman bought the Augusta A109 helicopter as a gift for his wife; it can also cost 25 Pound custom-made personal exclusive wax figure, produced by Madame Tussauds, guaranteed to be lifelike...

There seems to be no deal request that Harrods cannot strike.
