Can you be called a rich man if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 181 Private Train
Two days after the cocktail party.

Gu Heng was sitting on a train from Paris to Geneva.
Yes, it's a train.
The area of ​​Europe is only 10 million square kilometers, which is not much larger than the total area of ​​China. The so-called high-end luxury 21-country tour sounds like it covers a huge area, but in reality, it is equivalent to traveling around various provinces in China, and even less than the distance traveled in China.
Plus, Paris is only 441 kilometers away from Geneva.
Taking a plane can only save an hour or so compared to taking a train, and you won't be able to see the scenery along the way, so it's better to take the train directly.
Gu Heng has experienced first class and private jets.
But I have never experienced a private train.
Yes
This 10-carriage train is the private train of the Arnault family.
According to Frédéric Arnault, the cost of building this train was as high as 900 million euros, and that was 20 million euros 900 years ago.
Calculated according to inflation, the price of this freight car alone is almost as high as 3 million or even more RMB. The cost of a domestic Fuxing train is only 1.5 million. In other words, this green train from the last century is equivalent to two Fuxing trains.
but!

The maximum number of passengers this train can carry at one time is only 24.
It's not that there's not enough space in the train, but because there are only 4 carriages with rooms in the entire train, 6 rooms in one carriage, and 4 rooms in 24 carriages.
The remaining six carriages were transformed into functional spaces such as kitchens, meeting rooms, and restaurants.
The main highlight is two words.

奢侈
At first, Gu Heng thought that the value of 900 million euros was exaggerated, but it was not until he got on the car that Gu Heng realized that his vision was still narrow.
Except for the iron structure of the four carriages, there is no metal inside the carriages. They are all made of high-grade mahogany, full of medieval European aristocratic style.
The oil paintings hanging in the aisles of the carriages are all works of famous artists.
If it is put up for auction, the starting price is estimated to be several hundred thousand euros
Moreover, the sofa, bed, and even the toilet in his room were all custom-made by the LV Group, and the selling price outside was tens of thousands of euros. In other words, the decoration value of a room was as high as hundreds of thousands of euros.
There are 23 more rooms like this one throughout the train.
Gu Heng guessed that the so-called 900 million euros was probably just the construction and basic costs of the train, and some antique decorations were not taken into account at all, otherwise the price of 900 million euros would probably be doubled.
What is enjoyment?

This is called enjoyment
If you don’t go abroad, you will never know how much the rich people living in the land of capital understand the word “enjoyment”.
In comparison, the high-end hotels I stayed in and the mansions I bought worth hundreds of millions of yuan in China were nothing compared to them.
After all, no matter how amazing a mansion is, can it be compared with a manor of dozens or hundreds of hectares?
Not to mention the faraway places, just this private train, you can't even think about it in China.
Private ownership of trains is absolutely not allowed in the country. If private trains run at will on the railways, it will directly affect the scheduling of trains, and in serious cases it will even cause chaos in the national railway system.

But in France, this is not a big deal.
As long as you can afford it, you can even stop the train system for a few hours.
This is the paradise of the rich. Well, everyone must serve money. As long as you have money, you have unlimited privileges.
If Gu Heng's heart wasn't so red and dedicated, he might have been like many wealthy Chinese people, spending all his money as soon as he got it.
Compared to the life in China where you have money but don’t know how to spend it, who can refuse to come to the West and become a God?

After all, the saying "Hell for the poor, heaven for the rich" is not said in vain.
#Ouyang Nana: Strike hard against "Chinese discrimination"! #
#LVHM Group announced that it would permanently terminate its partnership with French racists Michel Gobert and Marie Beltrami, and declared that the LVHM Group would never tolerate any racial discrimination! #
#Ouyang Nana: I am just a Chinese who did what he should do. There are others who sanctioned the two racists#
At this moment, Gu Heng was watching Douyin and scrolling through it casually. He accidentally saw what happened at the cocktail party two days ago.
As the bearded Michel and the skinny Mary were thrown out of the manor by security personnel, the incident made the headlines of the French entertainment news section that night.
Not to mention the LVHM Group, whose influence in France is comparable to that of Tencent Group in China.

Bearded Michel and skinny old lady Marie also have high status in the French fashion circle.
Two well-known upper-class people were thrown out of the cocktail party held by the LV Group. Of course, the media would not let go of such big news. In less than a day, reporters learned the details of the incident from other participants of the cocktail party and published it in the newspaper.
Although the domestic media reacted a little slower, they also reposted what happened in France to domestic news websites a few hours later.
There are numerous incidents of racial discrimination by international brands.
There have been many boycotts, but they have had no effect on these international brands.
Netizens are almost numb
As a result, we can see that the LV Group has sanctioned racists. This is the first time in history. As expected, these news directly became popular on both TikTok and Weibo, with more than 1 million discussions.
This huge wave of traffic directly made LV Group and Ouyang Nana feel awkward.
Not to mention the LV Group, which has benefited from such a large wave of welfare traffic. As long as it can realize a little bit of cash and increase the turnover in the Chinese market by 1%, the benefits it brings are immeasurable. It is estimated that the market value will increase by hundreds of millions or even more US dollars.
Ouyang Nana broke the circle instantly
In the absence of any works, the number of discussions on Weibo increased by dozens of times.
However, I don’t know if it was because of Frédéric Arnault, but Gu Heng’s name was not mentioned at all in the whole incident. Only Ouyang Nana posted a Weibo, implicitly mentioning herself, telling netizens that it was not the LV Group that sanctioned these two people, but someone else.
Gu Heng smiled and shook his head, then he swiped past this hot topic and continued to watch the marginal internet celebrity.
Gu Heng said he didn't care at all that his name didn't appear on such a big hot topic.

After all, I am not a celebrity. Fame is not important to me.
Even if my name appears in the hot topics and a group of netizens praise me as a "national hero" like Ouyang Nana, what does it matter?
It will not benefit you at all, but will instead attract a large group of people's attention.

He knows the nature of modern netizens.
I can praise myself to the sky today, but I can trample myself into a cesspool someday.
The reason he helped Ouyang Nana that night was simply because he was Chinese. If the bearded Michel and the skinny old lady Mary had discriminated against black people, Gu Heng would not even look at them.

To put it bluntly, Gu Heng was just venting his anger.

After all, what’s the difference between discriminating against Chinese people and discriminating against yourself?
Two hours later.

The train stopped at Geneva Cornavin station
Gu Heng and Frederick Arnault and others get off the Arnault family's private train, the Arnault
In addition to the bodyguards who were protecting Gu Heng personally, Gu Heng's bodyguard team had already arrived in Geneva four hours ago and was now standing at the station waiting for Gu Heng. In addition, Frédéric Arnault, Nicolas Meyer, and Douglas Pinolard also had their own bodyguard teams.
The total number of bodyguards of the four people reached 60 to 70.
This grand scene is no less than the basic security procedure for the head of a small country. Other passengers at the station were asked to walk around this area and did not dare to stay.
Just as Gu Heng and his companions were walking out of the station under the escort of bodyguards, Nicholas Meyer couldn't help but complain: "Gu Heng, the air show will be held tomorrow, why did you come to Geneva in advance?
You might as well listen to me and go to Amsterdam for a day."

As he spoke, he pulled the silent Dugu Pinolar aside and said, "Dugu, Gu Heng and Drake are both pretending to be noble. How about we go to Amsterdam to have some fun now and then take the plane back tomorrow?

I will pay for all expenses!"

But Dugu Pinolard just glanced at him and said: "I have no interest in the red light district of Amsterdam. If you want to go, you can go alone."

Hearing that Dugu Pinolal, the only person he had a chance to recruit into his camp, had also rejected him, Nicholas Meyer showed a desperate expression and shrugged his head and said, "What's the point of going alone? Of course, it would take a lot of people to go to such romantic occasions."

Gu Heng heard this and asked Nicholas Meyer helplessly, "I think with your wealth and status, it would be no problem for you to sleep with an Oscar winner, right? Why do you have to think about those prostitutes in Amsterdam?"

Where is Amsterdam?
The capital of the Netherlands
One of the world's three major "sex capitals"
The most famous place is the legalization of sexual services
It is for this reason that Amsterdam's tourism industry is very developed.
But Gu Heng couldn't understand why Nicolas Mayer, a top second-generation rich man with a fortune of tens of billions of euros, didn't like celebrity models and wealthy ladies, but was obsessed with the customs of Amsterdam.
He even dated two prostitutes.
Gu Heng found it hard to understand why someone would like prostitutes?
Although Gu Heng knew that the West was sexually open, it was probably not open to this extent.
Nicholas Meyer was not ashamed when he heard what Gu Heng said, but proud. He said, "Gu Heng, believe me, the reason you have this idea is because you have never had close communication with the girls in Amsterdam. If you have had close communication with them once, you will find out what enjoyment is! Their skills are simply not comparable to those of stars and supermodels!

Let's go to Amsterdam now. I'll have someone arrange for you to be the top girl there so you can experience what ecstasy is. How about that?"

OK OK.
Gu Heng was really silent now.
I could only ignore his gaze and walk out of the station with big strides.
Gu Heng used to think that it was very strange that Principal Wang could still love internet celebrities for more than ten years. Today, he has learned something new. A second-generation rich man with a fortune of tens of billions of euros only likes bitches. If he told others about this in China, they would even suspect that he had lost his mind.
Frédéric Arno noticed Gu Heng's silence and put his arm on Gu Heng's shoulder: "Don't bother with him. This guy's sexual habit is a bit weird."

"You know nothing at all!"

Nicolas Meyer was still trying to refute her, but Frédéric Arnault ignored her and whispered to Gu Heng, "I believe you have seen the news from China. To be honest, your name did not appear in the news because I asked the French media to deliberately erase it. You shouldn't mind, right?

I saw that the Chinese female star who was with you that day seems to have received a lot of praise in your country. If you need, I can also let the media release the video footage of that time so that you can enjoy the praise from your hometown. "

Gu Heng was not wrong
The reason why his name did not appear in the news was that Frédéric Arnault was behind it.
Thinking of this, Gu Heng raised his eyebrows and said, "I have no interest in the so-called praise, but what I don't understand is why you bother to erase my name from the media?"

Frédéric Arnault responded with a kind look on his face.

"Racists are a group, and they are very extreme. If you are exposed in Europe, you are likely to be targeted by those lunatics.

Like you said yesterday, they are just a bunch of wild dogs looking for shit in the sewers. There is no need to trouble yourself with them."

Gu Heng nodded and roughly understood what Frédéric Arnault meant.

Why is racial discrimination so persistent despite repeated bans? It is nothing more than a political necessity.
Gu Heng didn't understand it before, but now as his social status improves, he can barely understand it.
If I were in China, I wouldn't have to worry about the negative impact of last night's incident, but there was no way. I was in Europe, on someone else's territory, and Frederick Arnault's actions were indeed to protect himself.
have to say
This rich second generation can
He really does think of himself when something happens.
If there is a chance, I can repay him.
Seeing that Gu Heng understood the meaning of his overture, Frederick Arno stopped talking and changed the subject: "Since the air show starts tomorrow, why don't we spend a day in Geneva first?"

Gu Heng nodded: "You can play, but I have to do something first."

"what's up?"

"I ordered a watch when I was in China before, but it has not been delivered to the Patek Philippe store in Geneva. Now that I am in Geneva, I might as well go pick it up in person and make some purchases at the same time."
