After hesitating at the door of the conference room for a moment, several French government representatives finally left.
However, their mood was very different from a few minutes ago.
After these guys left, Xiao Ran and the others also left the conference room and returned to the presidential suite.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ran called David and Matthew to the study room and began to discuss the next step and adjust the action plan.
When David and the others arrived, he immediately got down to business.
"Guys, the plan can't keep up with the changes. Since the French government cannot accept the conditions I proposed, the operation to explore Queen Mary's treasure has to be temporarily shelved."
"I'm very sure that it won't be long before the French government will regret it, and they will take the initiative to come to me to seek cooperation in exploring Queen Mary's treasures."
"At this time, they are still dreaming of monopolizing Queen Mary's treasure, but their dream is destined to be shattered and a lot of manpower and material resources will be wasted."
"If Queen Mary's treasure was so easy to discover, it would have been discovered long ago over the past two hundred and thirty years, and it would never have been preserved until now."
"Until now, this treasure has not been discovered, which is enough to show how secretive it is!"
Seeing how confident and determined he was, David and the others breathed a sigh of relief and felt much relieved.
Each of them guessed that as the negotiations broke down, the French government would definitely organize its own exploration teams to explore places where they believed Queen Mary's treasures might be hidden.
And everyone is really worried that the French government will find this treasure.
In that case, Xiao Ran will have one less treasure in his hands, and the company's income will be reduced.
Naturally, everyone's income will also decrease.
Naturally, no one wants to see such a result.
Now that Xiao Ran is so sure that it is impossible for a Frenchman to find Queen Mary's treasure, everyone's hearts hanging in their throats can finally be put back in their stomachs!
"Since it is impossible for the French to find Queen Mary's treasure, let them do whatever they want, and we can just watch the show from the sidelines."
"I really want to see how wonderful the French government's expression will be after they have spent a lot of manpower and financial resources but cannot find Queen Mary's treasure."
"We don't even rule out this possibility. The guy who made this suggestion will be severely punished."
Following David's words, laughter immediately erupted from the scene.
After discussing Queen Mary's treasure for a while, Xiao Ran changed the topic.
"Guys, since Queen Mary's treasure cannot be explored for the time being, let's prepare to explore the Lu Qinzhai treasure."
"I plan to go to the Red Mansion later to see the situation there. Everyone should also make preparations and start taking action tomorrow."
"But our first target of action is not the red building, but the land and buildings located outside Paris that originally belonged to the Lu Qinzhai family."
"After exploring the land and buildings on the outskirts of Paris, let's explore a few buildings in the city, and then the Red Building."
"The final finishing touch is two country villas in Cannes. Taking this opportunity, everyone can rest in Cannes for a few days and treat it as a vacation on the Côte d'Azur."
Before he finished speaking, cheers erupted from the scene.
"It's great. I've wanted to go to Cannes and Nice for a long time. I must enjoy it on the Côte d'Azur this time."
"The famous Cannes Film Festival will be coming soon. We might be able to catch up with this film festival. That would be great!"
Matthew and the others cheered, all of them looking forward to it.
After a burst of cheers, Ryoko suddenly asked:
"Boss, our joint exploration of Queen Mary's treasure with the French government has failed. Will it affect our exploration of Lu Qinzhai's treasure?"
"Will the French government turn its back on us and not allow us to explore the Lu Qinzhai treasure? Or if we discover the Lu Qinzhai treasure, the French government will not allow us to transport away the antiques, cultural relics and works of art we discovered?"
Xiao Ran looked at this guy, then smiled and shook his head.
"Ryoko, the problem you mentioned does not exist. In fact, when we obtained the exploration permit for the Napoleon Treasure, we also obtained the exploration permit for the Lu Qinzhai Treasure."
"When it came to distributing the discoveries of Napoleon's treasure and Robespierre's treasure, the relevant agreements we signed with the French government were clearly written in black and white."
“The French government cannot stop us from exploring the Nou Chin Zhai Treasure, nor can it stop us from transporting all the Chinese antiques, cultural relics and works of art found in the Nou Qinzhai Treasure.”
"In other words, all the legal issues regarding our exploration of the Lu Qinzhai treasure have long ceased to exist. We can start the exploration without worrying about the French government obstructing it."
"Of course, if the French government really refuses to stop us from exploring the Lu Qinzhai treasure, I have ways to deal with this situation. By then it will be too late for them to regret it."
Hearing what he said, everyone felt relieved immediately.
After another discussion, everyone got up and left, walked out of the presidential suite, and prepared for the next action.
Meanwhile, not far away on the other side of the Seine.
The French Deputy Minister of Culture and Carlin and others have arrived at the Elysee Palace, the French presidential palace.
They were going to report on the results of the meeting, but everyone was worried.
On the way to the Elysee Palace, Carlin suddenly whispered:
"Why do I always feel uneasy? Did we make a mistake by rejecting the cooperation conditions proposed by that guy Sean?"
"If we organize a team to explore this royal treasure, if we spend a lot of money and material resources but find nothing, who will bear the responsibility?"
"If we cooperate with that greedy guy Sean, we will definitely find this treasure. We can get at least half of the treasure without having to bear any cost..."
The French Deputy Minister of Culture said nothing, but his face became increasingly ugly.
It wasn't until he reached the top step that he whispered:
"Leave this matter to the people above to make the decision. Whoever makes the decision will be responsible. We must clear up the relationship later."
"That bastard Sean is too difficult to deal with. If possible, I never want to deal with that bastard again."
While they were talking, they had already walked into the gate of the Elysee Palace and went in to report the situation.
In a blink of an eye, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning.
Xiao Ran took Elaine and David downstairs, preparing to visit the Red Mansion.
Unlike the previous few days, there were far fewer media reporters gathering at the entrance of the hotel, with only three or five French and American reporters.
As a large number of media reporters left, the hotel entrance suddenly became much quieter.
But what many people don't know is that instead of lowering the alert level of this five-star hotel, it is actually higher than before.
As soon as Xiao Ran and the others entered the lobby on the first floor, Marvin came up and reported the situation in a low voice.
"Sean, no suspicious people were found inside or outside the hotel. The same goes for the Louvre and Tuileries Palace on the Seine and across the river..."
Just as he was introducing the situation, Xiao Ran had secretly turned on the perspective and quickly looked through almost every place inside and outside the hotel door.
Even the cars speeding on the street outside, the ships in the Seine, and the many tourists on the other side of the river, he all looked through.
As Marvin said, the area in front of the hotel is safe and there are no suspicious people.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran and his group walked out of the hotel, then left the hotel in a car and went straight to the Red Building.
Ten minutes later, the motorcade arrived near the Red Building.
After arriving here, Xiao Ran, who was sitting in the car, took a quick look at the situation around the red building again as usual for safety reasons.
At first everything was normal and nothing was wrong.
However, when Xiao Ran's eyes swept across a building more than 200 meters away.
His expression suddenly changed, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
