Actually, the live interview with the US broadcaster CNN was supposed to be about travel restrictions in the corona pandemic.

But the son of the German Trivago boss had a more important topic:

Axel Hefer, Trivago boss:

"He wants to go to bed."

Richard Quest:

“Oh, wish him a good evening from us.

What's his name? "

Axel Hefer, Trivago boss:

“Victor.

But he can't hear you.

I'm only connected to my headphones. "

Axel Hefer is the head of the German hotel search engine Trivago. His company is currently struggling with the consequences of the corona pandemic. The entrepreneur takes unexpected interruptions in the home office all the more calmly.
