Don't believe that Europeans and Americans value the spirit of contract and only care about profits when doing business.

People who have such a perception are most likely not worthy of others establishing a deeper friendship with them.

No matter where you go, when you first start doing business, it’s all about profit, but once you make profit, you have to start talking about relationships.

Only with friendship can we guarantee long-term interests in the future.

If you only seek short-term or obvious benefits, that would be too foolish and would be the behavior of a nouveau riche.

What do so many public relations companies do?

This industry is derived from the fact that people do not have close enough relationships but want to make profits.

As long as the friendship is deep enough, if any problem arises, the bosses of both sides can just make a phone call to explain everything, and there won't be any problems afterwards.

Of course...if you want to achieve such a relationship, you need to build it up slowly.

…

Taking out a piece of letter paper and writing a reply to Counselor Wang, Alan first declined his invitation, saying that he was very busy recently and had too much official duties to have time to go for inspection, and he would go there when he had the opportunity in the future.

Finally, he expressed his gratitude at the end of the letter and invited Counselor Wang to contact him if he had the opportunity to go abroad for inspection in the future, and Allen would send him an invitation.

In this way, the favor was used, but it seemed useless, and it was even further consolidated.

…

An Air England Boeing 747 has entered Australian airspace.

Alan was sleeping soundly with his head covered when he suddenly felt someone scratching him.

He opened his eyes blearily and saw a little face with a little light, which scared Alan.

"Fuck...William, what are you doing?"

William pouted, shook Alan again and said, “Cousin, I can’t sleep.”

“…”

Why do you come to trouble me when you can't sleep?

Alan turned slightly, stretched out his arm to pry open the window shutter, and looked at the vast expanse of white outside. He didn't know where it flew to.

"Why don't you go play with Harry?"

I thought William would make some excuses, but unexpectedly, William lowered his head and sighed: “Cousin, I miss my mother.”

“…”

Alan pressed the seat, sat up slightly, and glanced at William, who seemed a little depressed.

There's nothing he can do about this kind of thing.

Mainly...

They could only meet when William returned home and Diana also returned to the estate.

At other times, even though Diana knew William and Harry were at Ellen's place, she didn't come to see them.

It's not because she doesn't want to, but because she can't!

This is fucked up, Alan is a retainer, he just needs to take William and Harry with him.

But if Diana wanted to see them, she had to apply.

They could only meet after someone agreed and said hello to Alan, which was very troublesome.

So some time ago, even when Diana made an appointment to meet Allen, she set the location in Cardiff instead of going directly to the castle to find Allen.

It's because it's against the rules.

…

"cousin?"

"Yeah... I'm listening."

Alan sighed and stroked William's hair.

"What happened to that old woman my mother that the newspaper reported a while ago?"

"Hahaha! Don't worry, I'm here. I'll scold her and she'll run away."

Alan was only responsible for finding a good school for them, handling their daily work, and ensuring they had good food and drink.

But he was a little bit unable to handle the child's feelings of missing his mother.

The purpose of this trip is to bring them along and let them relax. Alan doesn't know what else to do.

Just as he was thinking about how to enlighten William, the servant came over to remind Allen that they were almost at their destination.

…

The flight's destination is Adelaide, the capital of South Australia.

The whole of Australia is roughly divided into six states and two territories.

On the Big Island, about one-third of the area on the left is Western Australia.

The upper middle part is the Northern Territory, which is the private reserve of the indigenous people, similar to the Indian reservations in the United States.

The land is not fertile, and there are large areas of desert, but there are many places suitable for animal husbandry and planting, which is enough for hundreds of thousands of natives to live on.

Below the Northern Territory is the state of South Australia.

South Australia is adjacent to Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria.

The capital Adelaide has a short history of only over a hundred years, but the environment is excellent.

It has consistently ranked among the top ten most livable cities in the world.

Since it is a trip, of course you should go wherever you feel comfortable.

Alan did not fly directly to Sydney this time, as he did not want to meet the new Governor-General of Australia so soon.

There was no need for him to greet him, and he wasn't even in New South Wales.

Alan plans to rest for a while before thinking about other things.

…

As soon as I got off the plane, I saw Ceylon wearing a big women's sun hat and a decent women's business suit, waving and greeting Alan.

This coastal port city with a Mediterranean climate has a somewhat cooler temperature in July, but the sun is still very strong. The highest temperature at noon every day is the most comfortable, neither cold nor hot, and it is nice to sunbathe on the beach.

After not seeing him for a while, I noticed that Ceylon had gotten tanned.

Alan smiled and said, "It seems that Adelaide is more caring than Wales. You look much better."

"Haha, Boss, let's get in the car first. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid the news will leak out and it will be difficult for us to leave."

Ceylon said and pointed into the distance.

Alan blocked the view with his hand and looked outside the airport fence. There were many local people with nothing to do, so they parked their cars outside the fence and took pictures with their cameras.

They weren't filming Allen, they were filming the plane.

Because Adelaide Airport has only been open for international flights for a few years, there are not international flights every day, but they are only open at fixed times.

The aircraft on international routes are larger, and the aircraft of various airlines have different paint jobs. In addition, Adelaide's airport is relatively small, so many people like to come here to take pictures of large planes.

"good!"

Alan turned his head and looked at William, who had a look of disgust on his face but was still holding Harry's hand, and motioned for them to come over quickly.

…

The convoy, along with half of the bodyguards, left the airport first.

Alan touched the leather seat in the car, feeling curious.

Ceylon thought Allen disliked American cars, so he quickly explained, "Boss, this was considered a rear production base at the time. This is the production line left by Chrysler after the war. They have a lot of American cars here. I didn't rent a car of our brand specifically because I was afraid it would be too eye-catching."

"Yeah, that's good, very thoughtful."

Alan did not comment. He said that when traveling, one should just keep a low profile. He came here to relax and have fun. If everyone knew about it, then why did he come out?

Looking at the mountains in the distance and the flat port, to be honest...

In Alan's opinion, the scenery here is just so-so, and is "on par" with Wales. The population is small, and as long as there are few people and the proportion of plants increases, the scenery will not be too bad wherever you go.

…

"Where's Patrice?"

"He's still in Sydney. I heard that the Governor-General kindly invited him to stay. The two of them had a very pleasant conversation. I don't know much else."

"Um……"

Alan nodded. As long as the conversation went well, all the expenses for this trip would be reimbursed.

Without saying too much, it wouldn't be too much to charge some endorsement fees for helping them promote tourism, right?

Since my factory is here, it shouldn't be too much for me to enjoy some special tax benefits, right?

…

"Have you contacted that actor?"

Thinking of this, Allen did not forget to ask about Nicole Kidman.

"Uh... Boss, I need to tell you in advance that her mother manages her very strictly, and her mother is a bit extreme."

Ceylon looked a little unnatural when he said this, but then he seemed to remember something, looked at Alan's face, and became less worried.

"Huh? Extreme? Your mom is strict? Your mom's a girl?"

This shouldn’t be the case…

Alan was a little puzzled. Aren't there many children in foreign countries who become independent at a very young age?

In his previous life, he had read a lot of rubbish media, which spread the news that American children are no longer cared for by their families after they turn 18 and that they can become independent. Then they would brag about how great America's system, self-care ability, and educational ability are. It was disgusting.

Not to mention America, even in Britain, what normal parent would stop caring about their child after he or she turns 18?

Not going to school?

Don’t you plan your children’s lives?

Most of those who neglect their children are actually the lowest class of civilians. They have no money and no connections at home, so they cannot control their children even if they want to. They can only let their children go out and enter society earlier.

It's obviously a very embarrassing thing, but I don't know how it became chicken soup for the soul.

But it is rare to see a child who is still strictly controlled by his parents at the age of 22. At this age, at least he has a certain amount of personal space.

…

"Boss... her family is very rich and has a lot of land. They are considered a wealthy family. Her mother is a feminist, a bit extreme, but..."

Ceylon looked at Allen's face. When it comes to feminism, most people are hypocritical.

No matter how much you shout that all men are bad, as long as you really meet a good-looking man of noble status, you probably won't be able to be too extreme.

According to Ceylan's estimation, Nicole Kidman's family might be considered wealthy in Australia, but compared with Mr. Allen, their family is nothing.

As for the rest…

Need I say more?

What is the new era facade of the British aristocracy?

She was just worried that Nicole Kidman would be influenced by her family, but now it seems that she doesn't have to worry too much.

…

Alan tilted his head and listened for a long time, then understood what Ceylon meant.

He chuckled and said, "It's okay. Is the time agreed? I still need to see her and give her a specific short-term training plan."

"Then...I'll ask her to come over tomorrow?"

Alan nodded and said, "Okay, come tomorrow afternoon."

After saying that, he didn’t want to look at the scenery outside the window anymore, so he closed his eyes slightly and began to rest.

…

The next afternoon, Nicole Kidman, with her hair tied up, just got out of the car and looked at the yard in front of her. This villa in the northern district had very nice greenery, and it was considered big even compared to their house.

On the lawn in the yard, sharp screams attracted Nicole Kidman's attention.

An owl with black and white fur is playing with a gray rabbit.

The rabbit screamed in fear, but every few steps it ran, the...

Huh?

After taking a closer look at the owl, Nicole Kidman realized that this was not a mutant species with albinism, but a snowy owl!

How did a bird like this end up in Australia?

and……

This snowy owl is too fat.

It flew up, fluttering its wings and pressing down on the rabbit. The rabbit squeaked and it looked like it was being caught or pressed down, but it looked very miserable.

With a shout of "Xiao Huang, come here!"

The fat snowy owl stopped flying and ran towards the direction of the sound, stepping on the grass with one foot deep and one foot shallow, looking very happy.

Following the figure of the snowy owl, Nicole Kidman slowly shifted her gaze and then saw a tall and strong young man.

Her blonde hair was casually tied into a short braid.

The hair on the front of the head was parted in the middle.

For boys, a middle-parted hairstyle is the most challenging for appearance. If a guy is a little ugly, he will look very shabby with this hairstyle.

But if your appearance is good, the middle-parted hairstyle will complement your appearance and make it even better.

This was the young man she saw now.

The temperature is only around 10 degrees Celsius now, but this guy is wearing a tight short-sleeved shirt, and his chest muscles are bulging.

He wore loose camouflage pants, a pair of high-top leather boots, and carried a longbow on his back.

He looks like a child of the forest, or like the elf prince described in fairy tales.

Anyway, I was attracted to Nicole Kidman at first sight.

She had never seen such a good-looking person of the opposite sex since she was a child.

I watched the young man take something out of the bag on his waist, stretch out his right arm backwards, take a step forward, and throw something far away.

The fat snowy owl howled, fluttered its wings and chased after it.

The tight short-sleeved shirt of the young man was stretched out so that his muscles were clearly visible due to the action of throwing things just now. The feeling of power and beauty of the opposite sex, the feeling of hormones, made Nicole Kidman swallow her saliva, and then her face turned red unconsciously.

…

"Nicole! Nicole!"

Ceylon smiled and patted Nicole Kidman who was staring at Allen in a daze.

"Ah... sorry Ms. Ceylon."

Nicole Kidman came to her senses and lowered her head. She was quite fair, so her blushing was very obvious. She was so embarrassed that she was so obsessed with someone and was caught in the act.

"Haha, it's okay. That's Mr. Allen. You've heard of him, right?"

“I’ve heard of it!”

Nicole Kidman reluctantly agreed with Ceylan, saying that she used to be quite rebellious because her mother was strict with her due to family reasons.

So she hates everything traditional.

Especially things like aristocracy and feudal vices, she hated them all.

Nicole Kidman has never been a fan of the prince and princess plot, but rather of the Zorro kind of stuff.

In the past two years, she knew that there was a famous aristocrat in Britain who liked to make movies, but she was usually busy filming, so she seldom watched TV or read newspapers, and had no time to learn about them.

This was the first time she met Allen, the director who invited her to make the documentary.

At this moment... Nicole Kidman suddenly found that she didn't seem to hate traditional things so much. She was even curious about many of the ancient British cultures. She wondered if this legendary Earl could be her teacher and explain things to her in person.
