"Did you just get here, babe?"
"Yes, the plane is a little late today..."
The person who entered the room was the younger sister of the Hearst sisters, Lydia Hearst. She was in Los Angeles attending an event. After learning that Barron had come to Silicon Valley, she rushed over directly from Los Angeles.
As a model, Lydia is indeed very good at dressing. Although it is still winter now, after taking off her coat, her black and white hip skirt and over-the-knee boots perfectly show off her figure.
I don't know if it was because the two hadn't seen each other for a while, but when she saw Barron again, Lydia was a little shy. However, after Barron hugged her in his arms and kissed her passionately, her passion was aroused.
Although she is 170cm tall, which is considered tall among women, she still looks like a little bird when she is with Barron.
"I, I didn't tell my sister, because I missed you so much, dear..."
Lydia was picked up by Barron. Her breathing was a little rapid, and she whispered in Barron's ear.
"I know, baby..."
At this time, there was no need for the two to say anything. Barron held the girl and walked directly into the bedroom...
…
"My dear, the next time I see you will be two months later..."
"Soon, baby, call me whenever you want."
Lydia's eyes were obviously filled with reluctance, but Barron couldn't stay for long. After spending a few wonderful days with her in Silicon Valley, it was time for him to leave.
The main reason was that he was about to reunite with Bonnie, who had already finished filming the show, so he had to say goodbye to Lydia first.
At this time, Bonnie had completed the filming of the new episode of "Sparkling Life" and went from Sacramento to Los Angeles, where she and Barron took the Devonshire plane back to London.
"Is the shoot going okay, babe?"
After seeing Bonnie, Barron naturally gave her a hug. After the two got on the plane, Barron asked softly.
"Not bad, it went smoothly, but Mr. Schwarzenegger ran into some trouble recently..."
"Oh, I saw it in the newspaper, but it's not a big deal."
What they were talking about was the recent dispute caused by Schwarzenegger's decision.
Just two days ago, California carried out its first execution in three years.
Prior to this, California Governor Schwarzenegger rejected the death row inmate's request for pardon.
According to newspaper reports, the 61-year-old Donald Beardsley was convicted of three murders. Despite pleas from local residents and the prison, Schwarzenegger refused to pardon him on January 18. Beardsley was executed by lethal injection at San Quentin Prison in San Francisco on January 19.
Then, on the day Beardsley was executed, six demonstrators gathered in front of the U.S. Embassy in Vienna, holding signs that read "Schwarzenegger ended his life" and "Say No to the Death Penalty" to protest Schwarzenegger's "killing spree."
Well, this kind of thing was indeed very abstract in Barron's previous life…
But now that he has a better understanding of the situations in Europe and the United States, he is not so surprised.
Interestingly, Peter Pelz, a senior official of the Austrian Green Party, sent a letter to the Austrian Ministry of the Interior, in which he requested that Schwarzenegger be stripped of his Austrian citizenship. He said: "The death penalty is unacceptable in Austria and Europe, and Austrian citizens cannot participate in or order the execution of the death penalty... Schwarzenegger is the most eye-catching Austrian abroad, and his actions have shaped the image of Austrians abroad."
Well, Schwarzenegger still has dual citizenship until now. In addition to American citizenship, he also has the citizenship of Austria, where he was born.
Before this, Schwarzenegger was hailed as the pride of Austria because of his success in the film and political circles. Just last year, his portrait was printed on an Austrian stamp...
However, after entering politics, Schwarzenegger showed his iron-faced character as a "Terminator" when it comes to the death penalty. Last year, he rejected the pardon request of Kevin Cooper, who was sentenced to death for murdering four people.
It should be noted that the death penalty is considered illegal in Austria, so this has seriously affected his support rate in Austria.
In October 2004, some demonstrators also hung a "murderer" slogan on the sign of Schwarzenegger Stadium in his hometown. A poll conducted in Austria showed that less than 25% of people believed that Schwarzenegger was qualified to be the governor of a state.
However, although Schwarzenegger caused some controversy over this matter, as Baron said, the problem is not too big and will not affect his career. After all, at present, the Green Parties in European countries are not very strong.
The Green Party is also very interesting. It was originally a political party developed from a non-governmental organization that proposed to protect the environment. They proposed political propositions such as "ecological priority", non-violence, grassroots democracy, and anti-nuclear principles. However, later on, they gradually mixed in with more "like-minded people", such as environmentalists, feminists, and animal rights activists...
Looks familiar, right? Yes, in the future, the Green Party in European countries including Germany will become more and more "abstract". After becoming more and more "white left", it will actually become a vassal of American interests. Anyway, from the perspective of American interests, Europe is its "ally" and also its threat. With America's status, only chaotic and abstract allies are good allies...
When the Devonshire plane landed in London, Barron first went to the headquarters of O2 Telecom.
Here, he met Ren Laoban, the chairman of Huawei, who came to London.
The main reason why Mr. Ren came to the UK this time was because Huawei participated in the competition for supplier candidate for British Telecom's "21st Century Network Plan".
Since last year, British Telecom has proposed a plan to renovate and update their network facilities, named the "21st Century Network Plan".
It can be said that as the current "boss" of the domestic telecommunications network in the UK, BT's "21st Century Network Plan" is very ambitious. It is expected to invest 10 billion pounds to complete the renewal and transformation of their network and use more advanced technology to increase network speed.
This plan naturally attracted the participation of almost all the world's telecommunications equipment giants, including Cisco, Alcatel, Siemens, Ericsson, and the British telecommunications equipment giant Marconi, all of which participated in this radical plan.
Huawei is also among them.
It is expected that by the end of March this year, BT will announce the list of selected suppliers. Mr. Ren came to England to try his best to be included in the list of suppliers.
However, before this, O2 Telecom and Huawei had already carried out extensive cooperation, including in the markets of Britain, Ireland, France and Germany, where Huawei was responsible for the deployment of O2 Telecom's mobile communications and broadband networks.
It can be said that this cooperation with O2 Telecom is also Huawei's biggest reliance in competing for the supplier of the "21st Century Network Project". This is also their largest-scale telecommunications equipment supply and construction in Europe.
In the current cooperation with O2 Telecom, after one year of cooperation between the two parties, the deployment of mobile communications and broadband networks in France and Germany has been largely completed, and upgrades in Ireland and the UK are also underway.
For O2 Telecom, choosing Huawei for this cooperation is indeed the most cost-effective. In addition, its efficiency has enabled O2 Telecom to gain a large number of users in France and Germany in the shortest time.
