Chapter 379: Table
Ron and Isha are both high-caste Hindus, and according to tradition they should have held their wedding in a temple.
However, considering their respective identities, they decided to combine the past and the present and take both into account.
The guests were received at several five-star hotels in New Delhi that were booked out, with a total of over ten thousand people registered.
The food provided is not limited to Indian cuisine. To be exact, there are nine foreign cuisines: Thai, Moroccan, Chinese, Japanese, and French.
Guests can choose whatever they want to eat, and there are also various luxury souvenirs.
In every hotel lobby, there is a huge screen that plays a video of Ron and Isha taking wedding photos on a loop, and there are Bollywood stars singing on the lawn a few steps away from them.
Some of the background animations are computer generated and the effect is very good, with a golden sun and a white horse wearing flowers and jumping.
The actual venue of the wedding, or where it began, was India Gate, the central circle in New Delhi.
As a symbol of India's independence, the vast venue not only has historical significance but can also accommodate tens of thousands of people for rallies.
The performance stage that Chopra is responsible for is built here, and a Bollywood singer has already performed on stage.
There were several long lines on the lawn, made up of dining tables, with countless drinks and delicacies on them.
People sang and danced to the music and celebrated with great joy.
Of course, ordinary people couldn't enter, as the outer perimeter of the square was cordoned off. Hundreds of police officers in jeeps were maintaining order.
Suddenly, a special forces team armed with live ammunition appeared from the street. They quickly checked the scene and confirmed that there were no suspicious people on the streets along the way before making a gesture to the back.
A white horse appeared, wearing a gorgeous mask and a jeweled saddle, and sitting on it was Ron dressed as a groom.
Along with the white horse, there is also a carriage, colorful flowers, and jingling gold and silver jewelry, which makes people curious about what the bride in the thin gauze curtain looks like.
The music was still playing, and the singing became more and more high-pitched and passionate. People spontaneously gathered on both sides of the India Gate to welcome the arrival of the newlyweds.
Ron smiled and waved to the crowd, and cheers broke out.
Before arriving here, they had already visited a Hindu temple.
To be honest, he knew nothing about traditional wedding etiquette, had no idea what to do, and no one taught him.
Fortunately, this is India, not the logically rigorous Germany. Everything seemed chaotic, but the blessing ceremony ended successfully.
The chaos is only on the surface; there is still some order inside.
The priest appeared on time, the lotus petals were placed in the right place, the ghee for pouring on the sacred fire was ready, and the sacred rope that would tie them together was also ready.
Ron and Isa sat cross-legged in a room filled with flowers, like two still dots in a colorful kaleidoscope.
At first, no one was worried except Ron, the fake Indian who doubted whether the family had really arranged the ancient blessing ceremony.
It has been said that India is "functional anarchy".
The process of this wedding is the best illustration of this evaluation. Although all signs seemed bad at first, things eventually developed in a favorable direction.
They successfully completed that part of the traditional wedding and were now about to have a modern wedding.
The India Gate faces the Zongtong Palace, they are in a straight line and there is a road connecting them.
This road was originally called King's Avenue, and was later changed to Responsibility Avenue. It is 2 kilometers long and runs east-west.
The Zongtong Palace is on the west side and the India Gate is on the east side.
When India holds its National Day parade or any other national celebration, it is held on this Avenue of Responsibility.
It is the pride of Indians and a symbol of the country.
This is also the route of Ron's wedding parade. They will go west all the way to Zongtong Mansion.
Yes, the venue for Ron’s modern marriage was the Mughal Garden inside the Zongtong Mansion.
He rode a white horse, leading Isha's float, heading west, passing the Parliament Building, the National Museum, the National Art Center, and the Gandhi bronze statue group.
It is his great honor to hold his wedding in the country's highest authority.
The Persian-style Mughal garden is a delight to the eyes, with a central fountain and two flower beds showcasing the elegance and leisure of a unique garden.
The crowd waiting there began to applaud, led by none other than Chief Carp Gujral and Chief Bucket Velayanan.
Well, if you don’t mention the bucket, it’s just a decoration.
Chief Carp Gujral actually has little presence, he just came to power.
Originally, we invited Gundam, but he resigned last month.
On the contrary, the BJP representative Vajpayee and Congress representative Kesri behind them are more important.
Of course, today is a happy day, so let’s not talk about politics.
Under everyone's blessing gaze, Ron reached out and helped Isa out of the carriage.
As soon as she appeared, she attracted the attention of everyone present.
Without a doubt, this was the most glorious moment in her life.
The morning sun was shining brightly, making her look vibrant and dazzling.
She was glowing, and the countless diamonds on her wedding dress were shining.
The bright light made her skin look crystal clear.
The applause grew louder, and Isa smiled happily.
At the wedding at the barrel mansion, the barrel chief Gujral personally delivered a speech and the barrel chief Vilayanan personally held a blessing ceremony for them.
The wedding was of such high standard that it could be called a "state banquet-level" wedding.
After the whole ceremony was over, it was already noon.
The banquet was also held in the Durbar Hall of the Zongtong Mansion, which can accommodate 500 people. The dome murals and crystal chandeliers are quite fascinating.
Those who can enter here are either rich or noble, and most of them are officials from Delhi.
Most of the chief ministers of more than 20 states were present.
Mayawati from Uttar Pradesh was naturally among them. She looked eager and tried to talk to Ron several times, but was interrupted by others.
There are many high-ranking officials in New Delhi, and her weight here can only be described as average.
The two top leaders chatted with Ron for a long time and they were in a very good mood.
Of course, they were all good things, praising Ron for his youth and potential and his outstanding contributions to India's consumer electronics industry.
Not to mention their actual power, once the reporters on the scene take pictures and put them in the newspapers, that's their power.
India is a parliamentary country, and no politician would look down on an important entrepreneur like Ron.
Sur Electric now dominates the consumer electronics market, with products covering almost all common household appliances.
The most rare thing is that they are not only large in scale, but also have a very good reputation.
I don’t know why, but the quality of Suer Electric’s products is better than that of other competitors.
It may not be as good as imported products in terms of cutting-edge technology, but it beats all brands in terms of quality and price.
With these advantages, Sur Electric quickly captured nearly half of the home appliance market in India.
This market share is terrifying and tends to be increasingly stable.
The glory of domestic products is not just a slogan.
President Gujral has invited Ron to visit overseas with the delegation.
This is called the card face!
To be able to accompany the cabinet on a visit abroad, the company must be a representative Indian company.
But not everyone has this qualification.
New Delhi is willing to contact Ron, and today's wedding is a good opportunity.
There is almost no background check required, everything is just a formality.
Because Ron has such a good reputation and no black spots, he doesn't look like an Indian businessman at all.
Who among those who have become big and powerful in this strange country does not have a few cases or is entangled in lawsuits?
At the very least, there are always scandals involving each of them, and the worst charge is fraud.
He doesn't, and he has an exceptionally good reputation in the industry.
It's a well-known company, has a positive image and a good reputation, so there's no reason not to bring him along to play.
Especially after marrying into the Verma family, senior officials in New Delhi began to extend olive branches to Ron.
They accepted him and treated him as one of their own, just like the Tatas, Boras and Essars of the past.
Of course, he is just getting started now. After another ten or eight years of development, everything will fall into place.
In addition to Zong Tong and Zong Li, all major political parties are also increasing their efforts to win over Ron.
Especially the BJP, they already have a deep friendship with Ron.
Throughout the banquet, Vajpayee wanted to hold Ron's hand and talk until dark.
Ron had only hinted at his interest in the port, and he immediately said he could choose any part of Gujarat's western coastline.
With thousands of kilometers of coastline, there is always a place suitable for a port.
That's right. While Indian officials haven't realized the value of state-owned resources, the right thing to do is to grab a lot of land.
Ron's goal is to own more than five ports in India, a semi-maritime country.
There must be both east and west coastlines so that future shipping companies will have sufficient supply bases.
But that’s a story for later. Ron’s goal this year is to complete the establishment of Sur Technology Group.
The integration of the port and energy industries will begin next year, and his investments in recent years will probably bear fruit around that time.
After Vajpayee left, the immortal came to congratulate him on his marriage.
"How's your stay in New Delhi?" Ron asked with a smile.
"Not bad. I have made friends with several newspapers and TV stations." Daxian said with a smile.
"So, do you have any thoughts on the next election?"
"What?" The immortal was stunned.
"Is there anything strange about this? Gujarat is your homeland. You must have thought countless times about how to govern it."
“This, this.” The immortal stuttered.
He was ambitious, but he kept it deep in his heart and never revealed it to others.
Now that Ron had said it so bluntly, he was completely unprepared.
"Don't panic. You know me. I suggested a long time ago that you make more appearances in front of the media. Sun TV can always arrange it if needed."
Ron winked at him, and his heart skipped a beat.
Of course he knew about the huge influence of Sun TV, which was quite influential not only in New Delhi but also in Gujarat.
If we have such a propaganda tool to help us, why worry about not being able to achieve great things?
Oh, the ambition of the great immortal is visibly increasing.
But before he could talk to Ron in detail, Mayawati, who couldn't wait, interrupted him directly.
"Mr. Soul, we need to talk."
"What's going on?" Ron frowned.
He glanced at the immortal, who nodded and left first.
"The situation in Uttar Pradesh is very critical. Several political parties have formed a coalition opposition and have been disrupting the government's decision-making. You have to go back and seek justice." She was anxious.
"But I don't have time now."
"Why?" she was stunned.
"Because of the wedding, I have a reception in Mumbai the day after tomorrow, and there's one in Goa as well."
Ron said he was very busy and would talk about everything after he got married.
