Chapter 306: Low-key luxury has connotation

After speeding on the Mercedes-Benz bus of more than 2 million yuan for nearly an hour, Luo Youyi and Han Xiang and a group of 300 Huaxia Internet café owners arrived at the location of the Burj Al Arab on the northwest side of the main island of Lanfang from the outlying island where the airport is located.

Although the main island of Lanfang is not large, and the farthest two points on the island are only seventy or eighty kilometers, the airport is not built on the main island after all, but on a small outlying island east of the main island, and it is necessary to pass a three- or four-kilometer-wide sea-crossing bridge to the main island.

The original choice to build an airport on an outlying island was also to avoid wasting land, because several kilometers near the airport had to be emptied and nothing else could be done to prevent interference with aircraft take-off and landing. It is built on an outlying island three kilometers away from the main island and the right size, so it is very convenient to use the sea surface of the three kilometers as a separation.

Don't think it's lucky to be able to choose such a location, but because there are several outlying islands within a few kilometers of the main island of Lanfang, that is, after screening various conditions, you found that the distance and area of this outlying island are the most suitable.

For domestic tourists who have not been to Lanfang, galloping on a few kilometers of cross-sea bridges is a kind of enjoyment in itself, and there was no cross-sea bridge in China in 2001.

Now we have to look at the infrastructure of such an industrial stall, and we have to go to this book recently. So for a tourist like Luo Youyi, almost everything along the way can be worth the ticket price.

"This is the old port area of Lanfang, and to the north, this park covering an area of nearly 10 hectares is the Zhaoming Palace, which has been renovated and opened as a museum. This is a palace built from the end of the Ming Dynasty, that is, at the end of the 17th century, and the shape was originally in accordance with the ceremonial top grid of the Daming County Palace, which is slightly lower than the Prince's Mansion. If you are interested in history, you can visit it more often.

Many of the cultural relics on display inside are antiquities from the Ming Dynasty. Of course, you are all from China, which has a history of 5,000 years, and I believe that the age of things here is certainly not very old, and the ancient building itself is worth a look at by distinguished guests. ”

On the bus, each bus is equipped with a white girl who is fluent in Chinese and beautiful as a ground tour guide, and the bus is enthusiastic to introduce every scenic spot along the way.

The route of the bus is also carefully chosen, and instead of pursuing the shortest route from the airport to the Burj Al Arab after crossing the sea bridge, it would rather take a slight detour, first go straight across the island from east to west, and then along the east coast of the main island from south to north, to browse the most elite urban seascape of the whole Lanfang.

After leaving the main city from the Zhaoming Palace area and continuing north into the new city, after driving only seven or eight kilometers and enjoying a section of natural coastal scenery, the convoy re-entered an area that was still slightly dirty and messy.

The female tour guide continued to explain with a smile: "This place is still under construction, please forgive me, but I believe that if you come to see it in three years at most, you will be able to see that all the construction has been completed from the main urban area to the current location."

The plot you see now is where the new palace of the Lanfang royal family, Yongxi Palace, is under construction, which was newly built by Mr. Gu to honor His Royal Highness the Grand Duke and his wife, and in exchange for better protection of the old palace Zhaoming Palace, which has been left over from the Ming Dynasty.

The new palace covers an area more than ten times larger than the old palace, and uses the best designers and architectural standards in the world, and the materials are absolutely world-class. Mr. Gu invested more than $1 billion in construction projects and horticultural construction in the first phase, vowing to build the world's first luxury house and the first modern palace.

In addition, everyone looks to the left and pays attention to the sea - I believe that I don't need to introduce, the nearly 200-meter-high Burj Al Arab can be seen more than ten kilometers away before our car turns to the seaside road. I see that some of my friends can't wait to take pictures there before I have even introduced them.

It is currently the only seven-star hotel in the world, and its design is inspired by shell-shaped sails. Some of you may have heard that the Dibba people made similar things, but later than us, but the design of the two is actually completely different. Although our central main building is not as tall as the Dibba people, our construction difficulty is much higher than that of the Dibba people.

Our Burj Al Arab is borrowed from the design of the three-masted sail, between the three mast buildings there are simulated flyers, cables of the flybridge connection, the No. 3 tailsail building is directly using the core steel column bearing structure, the main body of the building does not touch the sea water, only the load-bearing steel column connects to the sea, the guests of the lowest floor, in fact, also live in the height equivalent to the height of the five-story building, which is spectacular.

There is also a viewing platform on the lower floor of the tailsail building with an all-through floor of tempered glass, which you can take a look at that time. Walking around the cloister floor, not only is there a 360-degree view of the sea around you, but even the blue and turquoise sea is under your feet, which is also the first of its kind in the world. Of course, if you have a fear of heights, please accompany you to watch.

Well, our car is almost to the hotel, before returning to the hotel, we will take a look at the northeast direction of this side, I believe many friends have seen it before, yes, the building has been built 300 meters high, doesn't it look spectacular? But I want to tell you that this building is actually only half the height, and it can even reach 600 meters in the future, which is twice as high as the current completion!

But this is a trade secret, it's not a distinguished VIP group like you, Mr. Gu's business partner, and we are not allowed to explain these things to ordinary tourists. ”

The female tour guide introduced that the 300 Internet café owners who joined Alipay in the first batch were dizzying and amazed, and they also felt full respect and gratitude in their hearts.

After a while, the group checked into the Burj Al Arab, although the room for 10,000 yuan a night made most people still very distressed, but after living in, they found that it was still very decent.

Luo Youyi was assigned to a room with Han Xiang as usual, and after entering the door, Luo Youyi was shocked by the spaciousness of the standard room.

Although nominally a standard room, it is actually equipped with a double bathroom and a dedicated study. On the doorway side of the bedroom, there is an area separated by a classical Chinese screen, and a dining table is set up, which is obviously convenient for dining in the guest room.

The area of the standard room is more than 50 square meters, and if you come out of the living room, it will be considered a "suite" in China.

In contrast, Han Xiang has been to more countries than Luo Youyi, and he made a judgment at a glance: "This house is spacious, when I traveled with the group, in Osaka, the suite is not as large as this single room."

Not to mention Tokyo, I was cheated by a tour group at that time, saying that I lived in Tokyo, but in fact, Nima was squeezed into Yokohama, in Motomachi Chinatown, and I had to take the subway on the JR Keihin-Tohoku Line to Kyoto every day for more than an hour. However, in Yokohama, even if it is a business suite of 30 square meters and a single room of 15 square meters, it is definitely more crowded in downtown Tokyo. Lan Fang people, this place is spacious and conscience. ”

However, as a small businessman in Wuyue with great potential for profiteers, Han Xiang also quickly realized that the Lan Fang people spent so much money on the living environment, mainly because of the Lan Fang place, the land was essentially worthless. The so-called value is the supply of Gu Kunka, and the construction rights of the entire country have been reclaimed with demolition compensation and restructuring.

Of course, the Burj Al Arab is really worth the price, because the building itself is very difficult, and I heard that the construction cost of building a building cost 500 million US dollars - don't underestimate the construction cost of that kind of strange and strange wonder building, which is many times more expensive than a tube building of the same size.

For a recent example, when Australians built the Sydney Opera House in the 60s, the construction cost cost was 120 million Australian dollars, which was equivalent to more than 70 million US dollars at the exchange rate at the time, which was 70 million US dollars in the 60s, and hundreds of millions by the end of the 20th century according to inflation.

Gu Kun built a Burj Al Arab, it is still such a difficult structure, the curved shell and load-bearing are much more difficult than the Sydney Opera House, and the scale is also larger, and the 500 million civil construction is very frugal.

As for the interior decoration, I heard that there are as many as seven or eight billion dollars in total. Although Han Xiang and the others haven't seen what the business suite, presidential suite, and royal suite look like, they know that it is definitely worth the price just by looking at the standard room.

The level of luxury, simply armed to the teeth. Although the house is simple, but there are countless high-tech in the simplicity, the whole room can not see a lamp, all the lighting is not seen and there is no lamp, relying on the optical fiber beam light guide into the house lighting, and the Maybach luxury car star roof construction technology is almost arrogant, you can see the star roof in the house at night, the effect is adjusted casually, absolutely not dazzling.

If you find a ladder to go up and touch the roof, you can find the real benefits of taking fiber optic lighting - any light-emitting parts are completely cold, there is no heat radiation at all, in a hot area like Lanfang, such a cold effect, with the surrounding wind, soft and soft central air conditioning, it is simply a fairy enjoyment.

In a word, all the electrical appliances in the house are very technological and even sci-fi. Any wall decoration is very simple and refreshing. But all the furnishings are extravagant and elegant.

The noble and elegant and X cold ascetic system plus a sense of science fiction, three different heights, through the three angles of furniture, hard decoration, and electrical appliances, are perfectly combined, and they are not abrupt and unharmonious.

5,000 yuan per person per night, and seeing such a place is worth the ticket price, anyway, it is not a permanent residence.

After lingering in the room for a while, Han Xiang called out to Luo Youyi: "Let's go, let's go eat first, I heard the tour guide Miss Natasha say that at noon I ate a buffet in the restaurant downstairs, but the buffet here is all lobsters to eat! Not to mention Lanfang white oysters." I've heard that the drinks are also good. ”

Luo Youyi was a little confused: "I originally said that I would invite you to drink at night, how embarrassing it is." ”

Han Xiang smiled indifferently: "Why do you care about these few dollars? If you want to drink, you have to pay for the wine yourself to have your heart? You really don't want to go, and when the time comes, you will do whatever you want, even if you have your heart. ”
