Chapter 1432 This is the real me
Although Xiao Peng's voice was not loud, everyone still heard what he said. There was silence at the scene and everyone looked at Xiao Peng. Are you planning to let the security personnel kick you out?
Xiao Peng said calmly, "First of all, you said this is a copy of your founder Niduo's design? Niduo made these two sets of jewelry two hundred years ago, right? Did he apply for a design patent? Even if he did, it would have expired long ago! You're still looking for a lawyer? Who are you trying to scare? Even if you call all the lawyers in the world, there's no law prohibiting people from wearing jewelry designed by Niduo! You're using a lawyer to scare people for no reason? Is there a lawyer in this room? Educate this silly lady on the legal grounds!"
At this time, a young man nearby said, "Well, I'm a lawyer. This gentleman is right. If we simply say that these two ladies wore the same jewelry designed by Mr. Nido, their behavior is not illegal."
After he finished speaking, a young man nearby quickly grabbed him and said, "Louis, what are you trying to show off for? Shut up right now. Isn't that just admitting that Ruth Birkin is a fool?"
It would have been fine if the young man hadn't said this, but after he did, the people around him started to catch on, and many laughed out loud. Then, seeing Ruth Birkin's angry face turn pale, they quickly turned away or held back their laughter, but it was obvious they were struggling to hold it in.
Ruth Birkin was even more furious at this scene. She was about to ask security to kick Xiao Peng and the others out, but Xiao Peng spoke again, "Besides, Ms. Ruth Birkin just said these jewelry sets were displayed in both the Palace of Fontainebleau and the Louvre, as if they were real. But what's the truth? The ones in your country's Palace of Fontainebleau and the Louvre are all fakes. The ones on these two beautiful ladies' necks are the real ones."
After hearing Xiao Peng's words, the scene was quiet for a moment, and then suddenly became as lively as a bombing.
"Who do you think you are? The things displayed in our National Museum are fake? Yours is real? Who are you trying to fool?"
"I've seen people bragging, but I've never seen anyone bragging like this!"
"Who is this person?"
"Do you even need to ask? Ruth Birkin doesn't even know him, he must have sneaked in."
"That's true. How could Ruth Birkin, such an important guest, not know him?"
Ruth Birkin laughed in anger after hearing this: "Who do you think you are? Ask everyone around you. Is there anyone who would believe your ridiculous statement?"
Finally, someone spoke up: "I believe it!"
Everyone looked at the person who spoke, and it was Vincent.
"Mr. Vincent McMahon?" Ruth Birkin recognized Vincent. She was the COO here and she must know all the important guests who came. Vincent McMahon was a billionaire, the owner of WWE, and a celebrity in the United States. How could she not know him?
Vincent nodded. "It's me. I believe what this gentleman says. I suggest you believe him too."
Ruth Birkin said hurriedly, "Mr. McMahon, you are our important guest. Your presence makes us proud, but this matter is another matter. It concerns the reputation of our Chaumet. Mr. Nitot's works in the museum are our pride. His words are an insult to our Chaumet, and also to our French museums! It is also an insult to us French people. Sir, if you can't give us a reasonable explanation, then I can only ask you to leave our Chaumet cocktail party."
After hearing his words, everyone present nodded in agreement with Ruth Birkin.
Xiao Peng laughed out loud and gave Ruth Birkin a thumbs-up: "Well, you are worthy of being French!"
Ruth Birkin was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Xiao Peng smiled but said nothing.
What does he mean? What are the French best at? Like Ruth Birkin, they're standing on the moral high ground and making random accusations. Watch the international news; the French are basically accusing this one day, then that the next. They turn a blind eye to the mess happening in their own country.
But after all, most of the people here are French, so it’s better for Xiao Peng not to say these words.
Although Xiao Peng didn't say anything, Vincent McMahon said directly: "Well, if this is considered an insult to you French, then he has insulted you French many times."
Vincent McMahon's words focused all attention on him.
Europeans dislike Daxia, driven by ideological and media issues. Mainstream media outlets' various misinformation about Daxia has led to widespread misunderstandings. However, Daxia isn't the most disliked people; it's the Americans they hate the most. In their eyes, the Americans, the "world police," are the most annoying. Compared to Daxia, Americans are rude and arrogant, a characteristic Europeans detest most.
Just like what Vincent McMahon said, the French people present were all angry.
Vincent McMahon, however, acted as if he hadn't noticed. "From what I understand, Mr. Xiao's museum contains a large number of French national treasures. Wasn't this incident quite a big deal at the time? It seems these are artifacts that were stolen by Germany when France was defeated in the war."
After hearing his words, the scene became quiet again.
"Mr. Xiao?"
"Our defeated relics?"
"Hiss... Could it be... He's the 'Salvage King' Xiao Peng?"
"Is Xiao Peng like this?"
"Who should I ask if you ask me? In my eyes, all yellow people look the same!"
"Shut up and keep your voice down! Don't make him mad if you say that!"
"Excuse me, are you the 'Salvage King'?"
Xiao Peng saw that he was recognized but didn't say anything: "Yes, I am Xiao Peng."
There was a burst of surprise when Xiao Peng admitted it.
At the time, several European countries wanted to control Xiao Peng and make him serve them. Instead, Xiao Peng simply dissolved his company and exhibited a series of French national treasures in Daxia's "Xiao Pavilion." These were French national treasures taken from France when Germany defeated France and proclaimed itself emperor in Paris. Xiao Peng retrieved these treasures and brought them back to Daxia for display. Since then, Xiao Peng has never returned to France! French people who want to see their own cultural relics have to go to Daxia!
I didn't expect Xiao Peng to return to France? Are these girls with Xiao Peng?
Vincent McMahon said: "Now, do you believe that the jewelry in your museum is authentic or that Mr. Xiao's jewelry is authentic?"
No one at the scene spoke, but many of them now had the answer in their hearts: Damn, are those treasures in our museum fake?
Ruth Birkin quickly said, "Mr. Xiao...are you telling the truth? Is this a genuine piece of Shangmei jewelry?"
Before Xiao Peng could say anything, someone suddenly came over and asked curiously, "Idol, what are you doing here?"
"Billy? Where have you been?"
