After getting rid of the reporters at the door, Yang Chen just stepped into the palace and saw Alyssa emerging from a corner with a smile.

But it was Alyssa who found an excuse to sneak out of the banquet hall after dealing with her father.

Yang Chen came to the banquet alone today, without a female companion, which is unreasonable.

"How long have you been waiting here?"

Alyssa naturally held Yang Chen's arm and flipped up her hair that was blown away by the wind, "It won't take long, just a while."

There were no reporters in the palace, and the two of them did not shy away from talking and laughing as they walked towards the banquet hall.

When Yang Chen and Alyssa stepped into the banquet hall, they instantly became the focus of the audience. Alyssa's beauty and identity would attract the attention of many people no matter where she went.

A rich and famous lady, there is also a famous person beside her

A young, handsome and rich man, and a talented musician from the East, they both have an aura about them, making it difficult not to attract attention.

"Hey, old Peter, your little princess is about to be kidnapped."

Peter von Siemens, who was chatting happily with some old friends, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he saw his daughter entering the hall holding Xiang Jiangchen's arm.

Alyssa just followed him and said hello to a few old friends before leaving. Originally, he thought that his daughter didn't like to hang out with old men like them.

Now it seems that as a father, my understanding of my daughter is still too one-sided.

Peter von Siemens waved his hand, ignoring the teasing looks of several friends around him, and said calmly: "Today's young people can't control them even if they want to. I have always been very open-minded. If Alyssa likes it, let her

Go ahead."

Several people listened, and there was no surprise. Everyone knew the character of their old friend. He held Alyssa's little daughter in his mouth for fear of melting, held it in the palm of his hand and patted it down, and doted on her.

As for Alyssa, the little princess of the Siemens family, several people actually wanted their descendants to marry her back.

It's a pity that the Siemens family has stopped doing marriages as early as the previous generation.

As for the reason, it is very simple. Siemens, which is spread across European countries, no longer needs to rely on any political power to support itself.

Because Siemens, controlled by the Siemens family, is itself a political company.

Since the founding of Siemens by the first generation founder of the Siemens family in 1847, Siemens has been developing in many fields related to "power".

More than a century ago, using electric lights was a luxury. Since Edison invented the electric light, electricity has played another important role and has been widely used by people.

In the early 19th century, Siemens rose to prominence due to the success of incandescent lamps. Before World War I, all filaments in Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and many other European and American countries came from Siemens.

After more than a hundred years of development, the Siemens family has become a behemoth that affects the electrical development of European countries. It goes without saying what role electricity plays in the industry.

Without electricity, industry cannot function.

In the industrial age, industry is the standard by which a country is measured. If Siemens wants to take root in the electrical industry, it is most appropriate for it to take a path of symbiosis with politics.

Since its establishment, Siemens has traveled between the German and British governments. Due to the good relationship it has established with the government, Siemens' position in the postal, military and other electrical industries has been unbreakable.

After the end of World War II, Western countries restored their economies and their demand for electricity reached its peak.

The Siemens family took advantage of the situation to set up a large number of branches abroad, involving countries including Switzerland, Austria, Sweden, Spain, Italy, South Africa, Japan, Brazil and Argentina, with its business spanning Europe, America and Asia.

Especially in public utilities, postal system tendering and nationalized industries, Siemens occupies a pivotal position in various countries.

With their relationships with governments of various countries, the Siemens family's social status is not inferior at all to those of the so-called aristocrats in Europe.

Every move of the Siemens family affects the economies of various countries, while the so-called aristocrats can only affect the political direction of their own countries at most.

In contrast, the Siemens family can rely on more things with Siemens in hand.

In this case, the Siemens family does not need to rely on any marriage to increase the family's influence.

Of course, the fact that there is no need for a political marriage does not mean that Peter von Simon really did not interfere in his daughter's marriage at all.

Peter von Siemens had already found out about his daughter when she came into contact with Yang Chen.

A few months ago, Peter von Siemens personally reminded his daughter that dating and marriage are two different things. If both parties just have a good impression of each other, then he, as a father, cannot prevent his daughter from making friends.

As for Yang Chen and Alyssa, they did only maintain a relationship as friends outside and did not violate his words. Naturally, Peter von Siemens could not say much.

Of course, the main reason why Peter von Siemens did not strongly object to the close relationship between his daughter and Yang Chen was because of Yang Chen's identity and background.

For a long time, after Siemens completed its layout in European and American countries, it has always wanted to enter that ancient eastern country.

Since 1872, when Siemens provided the first needle telegraph machine to the mainland, the Siemens family has had business dealings with the mainland.

In 1899, Siemens also built the first tram in an inland capital.

So, from the very beginning, the Siemens family was more or less connected to the interior.

It's just that the electrical industry is crucial in any country. It is impossible for Siemens to expand inland like it does in European and American countries.

Nowadays, Siemens' cooperation with the mainland is subject to many restrictions. Under this situation, Peter von Siemens has been trying to find a way to make a breakthrough.

As the opening up of the inland becomes more and more clear, it is very important whether the Siemens family can take the first bite of the soup.

Once the inland population of one billion people is excavated, the wealth it will bring will undoubtedly be huge.

But the sensitivity of that ancient country to foreign investment is also very troublesome.

Since Yang Chen gradually showed his strength, Peter von Siemens became more and more interested in him.

As a native of Xiangjiang, Yang Chen's identity will undergo a huge change after Britain and that ancient country decide the ownership of Xiangjiang.

As long as Britain relents on the Xiangjiang issue, then the relationship between Yang Chen and the mainland will no longer be half one's own, but one truly one's own.

The only difference is whether this person has money or not.
