Consumer male god

"Dear Mr. Han."

Nicolas, a designer with a fluffy beard, heard Sister Jin’s translation and responded with a smile.

"I don't know where you got the news from, but I'm pretty sure that the Argyle Mine has not been closed, it has just been converted to underground mining - the surface rough stones have been mined out, and now they can only be dug under the rock formations. Find a legacy.

So in a sense, it is indeed close to closing, but at least so far, it has not stopped production.

In addition, whether to close or restart the Argyle mine has nothing to do with De Beers - it belongs to Rio Tinto. "

Nicolas' attitude seemed to respect Han Lie very much.

However, those who are sensitive enough will definitely be able to detect a condescending tone in his tone of voice.

That feeling can generally be understood as a kind of conceit based on professional knowledge, as if pointing fingers at Han Lie - you layman, shut up and listen to me!

When Second Sister Jin was halfway through translating, her heart dropped.

Damn it!

Are you fucking crazy? !

Sitting in front of you is the God of Wealth of my second brother, a supernova in the financial world of Shanghai, who wants to spend tens of millions of distinguished customers on high-end jewelry, your God!

Do you know something about human nature? !

Second Sister Jin looked at Nicolas angrily, her eyes spitting fire, and she did not translate the second half of the sentence.

But it doesn't mean much, Nicolas speaks English.

Therefore, not only did Liang Wu understand it, but Han Lie also understood it word for word.

But Han Lie did not rush to respond. Instead, he gently raised the corners of his mouth and glanced casually at Yisi Lu.

Just this look made Lu Yisi's heart skip a beat.

He glared at Nicolas hatefully and hurriedly apologized to Sister Jin in French.

"I'm sorry, Jin. Nicolas is a craftsman who focuses on his craft. You know how stubborn people like them are. I would like to express my sincerest apology to Mr. Han for his offense. Please convey it to me."

Then, before Sister Jin could express her position, Nicolas became unhappy.

He turned back to French and complained to Lu Yisi: "Hey, you are not my direct leader, you are not qualified to decide anything for me! And what did I say wrong? Mr. Han's understanding in this regard is indeed very superficial ...Okay, since he is an important customer of ours, I will apologize to him personally, but not because of you, understand?"

Nicolas is a bit arrogant and a bit twisted, but he is not stupid.

He didn't really want to offend Han Lie, he just had such a personality that he didn't want to complain about it.

As a result, these words finally made Lu Yisi so angry that he broke his guard.

"Idiot! Damn it, from now on, shut your mouth firmly, if you still want to keep this job! Otherwise, I swear, I will use all my power to clean you out of the company !”

Nicolas was stunned by the scolding.

Second Sister Jin was also a little confused and didn't understand where Lu Yisi's irritability came from.

So far, the situation has not been particularly bad, right?

Apart from his low emotional intelligence, Nicolas didn't make any big mistakes...

In her mind, she already assumed that Nicolas' popular science was the correct answer. After all, Han Lie was a layman, so it was normal for him to remember something wrong.

So she hurriedly calmed her cheeks: "Hey, relax, Mr. Han is a very thoughtful and cultivated man. He will not lose his temper because of Nicolas' correction. Lu Yisi, don't make things too complicated..."

Nicolas nodded hurriedly, his expression aggrieved.

"Putin!"

Lu Yisi cursed in a low voice, and then felt that it was not enough, so he added another sentence angrily and venting.

"He knows nothing! The Argyle mine was shut down because of Delbis's push!"

What? !

Second Sister Jin's eyes widened and she was confused.

Nicolas's eyes were dull and he subconsciously scratched the back of his head, his brain also shutting down.

How can it be?

Rio Tinto’s official website clearly states...

Lu Yisi ignored the ignorant little Kara and stood up hurriedly. While putting on a smile, he bowed gently to Han Lie and apologized in English.

"I'm sorry, dear Mr. Han.

Nicolas is a pure designer with a head full of art. His disrespect for you will definitely be severely punished by the company headquarters. Please do not have a bad opinion of Cartier because of such a small unpleasantness.

Within the scope of my authority, I will provide you with the most top-notch and most considerate services, as well as the greatest degree of super VIP treatment.

I hope you can continue to trust Cartier..."

wow~⊙o⊙

Yu Yun, the only person in the audience who couldn't understand English, was the most confused and at the same time the most excited.

She didn't know what happened, she only knew that her brother was the best.

So impressive!

The CEO of China District!

You all open your eyes and watch carefully. What is his attitude in front of my brother? !

As for everyone else who could understand English, they were completely shocked.

No one understood what was going on.

But everyone could see the change in Lu Yisi's attitude.

If when Han Lie first walked in, his attitude was one of enthusiasm and thoughtfulness towards wealthy customers, now he is respectful with a hint of deep fear.

Not very obvious, but true.

Assistant Liang's spoken English was not good, but she had no problem translating from English to Chinese. She hurriedly and quietly translated Lu Yisi's apology + licking for Han Lie. Her heart was so full that her voice was trembling.

This is my boss!

My chosen one to follow!

Who can understand how I feel now?

Liang Wu was filled with pride and glanced at Sister Jin calmly.

That means something like - how do you act as a middleman?

Our boss is so big a tiger flag, so it’s okay if you don’t know how to pull it off. Can’t you even maintain our boss’s authority? !

Second Sister Jin, that's an injustice.

To this day, she doesn't understand what happened.

Why did Lu Yisi suddenly become intimidated?

Cartier's tone has always been very high. There is no reason for the big brother in China to be so low-key? !

Oh my God! Amazing……

How did Teacher Han do it? !

What others think is none of Yisi Lu's business.

He only cares about what Han Lie thinks.

Therefore, the middle-aged white man stared nervously into the Chinese boy's eyes, trying to find some emotions that could be used.

result……

There was nothing but an ocean-like calm.

It's like today's scene is so ordinary and not worth mentioning.

The more Yisi Lu thought about it, the more frightened he became, his mind filled with strange associations.

This kind of thing may seem trivial to outsiders, but in the eyes of real insiders, its significance is extraordinary.

It's not the ordinary kind of scary, it's the kind of scary that can't be imagined no matter how you think about it.

Can you understand?

Lu Yisi has even begun to recall the life experiences of a few insiders inside and outside the company.

The first is Barons, the director in charge of gem acquisitions.

A pure native of southern France, he worked for Anglo American Plc after graduation and was later stationed in Africa. He has a background in the French Foreign Legion, so he led the merger of several copper mines in Central Africa and has a close relationship with the diamond warlords in Chad, Congo and Central Africa. In 2000, he was recruited to Cartier as a supervisor, responsible for the acquisition of rough stones. He was one of the few people in the company's senior management who knew the inside story of the Argyle mine.

Well, it can't be him. Barons has no connection with China.

The next insider is the company's vice president...

Lu Yisi went through the four or five people in his head in an instant, and then painfully discovered...fuck! It’s all in vain!

Everyone cannot be a leaker!

More importantly, they, and even all the senior executives of relevant companies who maintain a tacit understanding, have nothing to do with China at all!

Jesus! It’s so fucking evil...

Lu Yisi's mood was a bit broken, not because his mental quality was not strong enough, but because the impact came too suddenly and too violently.

You must know that the Argyle Mine was transferred to underground mining in the second half of last year. It has only been four or five months since then. Ordinary rich people in China are unlikely to even know about this matter itself.

Those businessmen and jewelry collectors who are extremely concerned about diamonds are most aware of the news that the Argyle mine has "transferred to underground mining."

But in fact, the so-called underground mining is just a euphemistic public statement.

Its fundamental purpose is to control the production of pink diamonds.

The initiator was not Rio Tinto, the owner of the deposit, but actually the international diamond giant De Beers.

This matter is actually not difficult to understand.

Rio Tinto is the miner, and De Beers is the largest acquirer and the actual controller of the global diamond market.

Therefore, it is never how much Rio Tinto mines and sells, but how much De Beers needs. Rio Tinto controls production capacity and quality, and how much it produces.

Once Rio Tinto digs unscrupulously, De Beers will inevitably lower prices significantly.

They have the pricing power and the appraisal certificate to ensure circulation, so why should raw material manufacturers resist?

In fact, international mining giants have already reached a consensus with De Beers in this regard, collaborating and becoming a community of interests.

Outsiders have no idea what De Beers means, let alone what a terrible trust group it is.

giant?

No, no, it is the source, intermediary, referee, appraiser, and terminal of the natural diamond market!

Therefore, Han Lie's understatement of "Once De Beers restarts the Argyle Mine" was not a slip of the tongue at all, nor was it a misremembering of the mine owner, but a reminder and knock that pointed directly to the root cause!

‘I know everything, don’t play tricks with me! ’

Facing such a low-key and powerful Han Lie, how could Lu Yisi not be shocked or afraid? !

Nicolas actually has the nerve to correct others, has his mind crystallized? !

Lu Yisi decided to use the most cautious attitude, the most thoughtful service, and the most enthusiastic attitude to help Han Lie complete the jewelry customization.

He still has to work as the chief of the Huaxia District for at least 5 years and make friends with a powerful person with a profound background and a promising future. Does he still need to consider it?

After all, it’s the company’s resources that are riding the horse!

However, what the frightened Lu Yisi could not imagine or dare to think about was that Han Lie actually did not know that the Argyle deposit belonged to Rio Tinto.

It was around 23 years ago. Han Lie was browsing Douyin when he had nothing to do and came across a video about Pink Diamond.

It only mentioned the closure of the De Beers and Argyle mines, as well as speculation that there were still many reserves in the underground veins. Han Lie also remembered a date in 2013.

Therefore, it was thought that De Beers shut down the Argyle mine in 2013.

Is there anything unreasonable? !

Today, I happened to have a chance to show off, so I took it out and made a vague and mysterious statement.

As for what the people who hear it will think...what does it have to do with me? !

How could a simple person like me know the inner world of you dirty guys?

Anyway, there won't be any consequences if I say something wrong. If I, a big daddy who spends money, say a word or two wrong, are you not allowed to help me hug me? !

Therefore, Han Lie gave Lu Yisi a meaningful look, which actually meant: When it's time for you to behave, you can do whatever you want!

What Lu Yisi understood was: Do you know the truth? If you don’t know either, then I’m so disappointed...

At that time, Xiao Lu could not wait to raise his hands to Brother Lie.

I know!

Brother, I definitely know!

…

The truth is so simple, so when Lu Yisi licked it solemnly, Han Lie himself was a little confused.

Ah? !

Did I accidentally hit Lao Lu’s G-spot again? !

Jie Ke is really...

Stimulate!

Han Lie didn't know or didn't want to know the specific reasons for the changes, but firmly grasped the core points——

Next, is my job just to show off?

Introduce me!

So, Brother Lie crossed Erlang's legs, picked up the coffee cup in front of him, and took a sip calmly and elegantly without raising his eyelids the whole time, and his aura quietly expanded to 2.8 meters.

One word - noble!

…

"Dear Mr. Han..."

Lu Yisi raised his head, then paused again.

Second Sister Jin finished translating the title, waited for a moment, but saw nothing more, so she turned to look at him, her eyes were strange and reproachful.

That means - little brother, what's the matter with you? Is this the level you need to face distinguished guests? !

Tell yourself, how many mistakes have you made? !

Lu Yisi swallowed his original words and changed his words temporarily: "Which one do you prefer, ruby ​​or sapphire?"

While asking, he diligently turned to the back pages of the album and pointed them to Han Lie.

To be honest, Cartier has a lot of top-quality gems in its collection.

And the quality is extremely high.

The following pages were filled with large bare stones, both red and blue, so large and beautiful that Yu Yun and Liang Wu had sparks in their eyes.

Burmese pigeon blood red, Sri Lankan star red, Vietnamese purple...

Kashmir cornflower sapphire, Sri Lankan traditional sapphire, Australian iron-rich sapphire...

Among them, the pigeon-egg-shaped ruby ​​named "Romantic Star" originates from Mogok, Myanmar. Its color is pigeon blood red, its clarity is extremely pure (C1), and its weight is 22.8 carats.

Even if it is just a picture, it is still thrilling and beautiful.

Han Lie's eyes stayed on that page for a long time, and Lu Yishun suddenly realized that the opportunity to make amends had come!

And just when he started to think about the words, Yu Yun suddenly felt his heart pounding.

Her eyes were struggling and desperate.

Brother, you won't be so cruel, right? !

You finally took me out once, do you want to buy this thing? !
