After Zheng Xudong's people in the airline took over the plane, he left the plane, and at this time, an Arab man in his forties came to Zheng Xudong, shook his hand, and said: "Hello, Mr. Zheng, my name is Camille, I am the Minister of Transport in Dubai, thank you for helping us through this crisis, our Royal Highness the Prince of Dubai has prepared a hotel for you, please come with me." ”

Zheng Xudong first thanked Minister Camille, and then said to him, "Can I bring my new girlfriend?" and pointed to Lanina next to him.

When Lanina heard him introduce herself as his girlfriend, her heart was as sweet as drinking honey, and her little face was a little feverish, so she took his arm by the way.

Camille smiled and said, "Of course, heroic beauties are also what we are looking forward to." ”

In this way, everyone walked out together, and when the reporters outside heard that the hero who saved the Emirates EK204 plane came out of it, the scene was in a commotion.

Countless voices and microphones were raised in front of Zheng Xudong, and the sound was chaotic, and he couldn't hear what everyone was saying, so he had to keep waving to everyone, and finally he had to say loudly: "I will be interviewed by several TV media in the past few days." If you are interested, please contact my friend Miss Lanina. Okay, I'm going back to get some rest, after all, it was a busy night yesterday. After saying that, the airport security opened a passage for them and walked outside.

When he came outside, Zheng Xudong thought that there would be luxury cars waiting, but when he saw that it was only a few SUVs, Camille probably saw Zheng Xudong's doubts, so he said to him: "Mr. Zheng, the road into the city is relatively long, we have prepared a helicopter for you, and the hotel we have prepared for you can also be parked on it, let's go." ”

In fact, a convoy drove out only four, Five minutes, I saw a helicopter parked in the middle of an empty field, Zheng Xudong got off the car and saw that this helicopter is the world's famous Sikorsky S-92 helicopter (helicopter), it is jointly developed and produced by many countries, its fuselage is huge, the transport capacity is very strong, the cabin area is 12 square meters, theoretically can accommodate 19 passengers, very spacious, the interior is made of high-quality materials, and carefully designed, of course, it can also be specially customized interior decoration according to the requirements of the short-sighted employer. Whether it's flight performance, comfort or reliability, the aircraft is world-class. But the plane isn't cheap, with its bare metal costing about $26.9 million, and with employer-requested renovations, it typically costs more than $30 million.

Sure enough, after the door of the plane was opened, there were two accompanying staff members on the two seats in the front row, and the space behind arranged a circle of circular leather sofas, the leather beige of the sofa looked very clean. The four walls of the aircraft are all covered with dark jujube leather to prevent the helicopter from jolting and injuring people when it encounters air currents.

Transportation Minister Camille asked Zheng Xudong to board the plane first, but Zheng Xudong has lived in China for so many years, and he still understands the rules of officialdom, he thought to himself, "Just kidding, no matter how big a hero is, he can't be an official, and these officials are all of royal blood, they respect you on the surface, but in fact, they don't look down on civilians at all." Besides, he has also seen a lot of rights and wrongs in Chinese officialdom, and the formulation of rules is something that people must abide by. ”

So he repeatedly excused himself to let Minister Camille board the plane first, and sure enough, Camille just humbly boarded with a few humbles, and gently patted Zheng Xudong's shoulder before getting on the plane, "Young man, there is a future!"

The circular sofa that could have sat ten people now seats four people, which shows the spaciousness of the place, Minister Camille is sitting in the right seat facing the nose of the plane, and next to him sits a female secretary who is not inferior to La Nina, the female secretary has not shown affection just now, but as soon as she got on the plane, she sat next to Camille, and from the eyes of the two people who exchanged words, it was silly to see that they were the kind of relationship of "having something to do with the secretary and nothing to do with the secretary".

Zheng Xudong and Lan Nina sat with their backs to the direction of the nose, and then Camille's secretary first poured a glass of champagne for the boss, in fact, drinking alcohol is usually prohibited in Middle Eastern countries, of course, it is a restriction on civilians, and officials are not subject to this restriction if they are ministers, or princes and the like.

After the secretary asked Zheng Xudong what he was drinking, he poured him a glass of red wine and a glass of mineral water for La Nina. Women in Middle Eastern countries are not allowed to drink alcoholic beverages in front of outsiders as long as they are not around their lovers. It just so happens that La Nina is a native of the Middle East. So she knows the rules. The female secretary seems to have a really good relationship with the boss, and it can be seen from the fact that she poured herself a glass of red wine how much the minister spoiled her.

Perhaps in order to show the prosperity and wealth of Dubai, the helicopter flight speed is very slow, Minister Hamil introduced to Zheng Xudong from time to time that this is Dubai's oil building, one hundred and five floors, the height is 410 meters, this is Dubai's telecommunications building, one hundred and twenty floors, the height is 480 meters, and the building over there is the Dubai Electric Building... The pride was evident in Hamiler's words.

Zheng Xudong is the first time to come to Dubai, he has heard of this small emirate in the bay before, all the people who came back from there say how rich it is, it is like heaven on earth, just from the plane looking down, it is true that there are all kinds of modern high-rise buildings in this small area along the coast, and basically every building is towering into the sky, sitting on the plane can not see the whole picture of these buildings, but only the coastal area, he can see on the plane that this modern city is surrounded by a large desert. He happened to be in a sandstorm here today, but fortunately it was not too big, and the sky was a little gray, which is something that the city of Dubai can't solve now.

Due to the low altitude of the helicopter and his good eyes, he noticed that there were several large open-air parking lots below the plane, in which various brands of sports cars were parked, so he said with emotion: "Sure enough, there are luxury cars everywhere!"

Hearing his words, Hamil laughed out loud, and the beautiful female secretary sitting next to him also pursed her lips, Zheng Xudong didn't know what to do, so he asked: "Minister Hamiler, is there something wrong? I saw that the parking lot was indeed full of luxury cars, and almost all of them were top brand sports cars." ”

Hamil laughed for a moment before saying, "You're right, but what you just saw was the site where our Dubai government impounded the vehicle. ”

"Oh?!, Minister Hamil, can you tell me about it?" he asked.

"Okay, let me tell you, our emirate of Dubai is indeed as you can see, the people are rich, of course, luxury cars are not a problem, but we are also a place where the law is very strict, and we will be severely punished for individuals and units who do not abide by our laws. I will give you two examples, one is the illegal parking of the vehicle, our traffic police department will first impound it, and then the offender can come to retrieve the vehicle, and we will give a heavy penalty to the illegal vehicle. Usually there will be a fine of 100,000 to 300,000 dirhams (1 dirham = 1.86 RMB), usually the fine accounts for one-third or one-quarter of the value of the vehicle itself, so some people usually buy a new car and will not come to claim the impounded vehicle. Speaking of this, the minister took a sip of wine and continued: "There is also a situation where some people violate our national customs, or when outsiders come to us to do business and break the law, we will usually confiscate all or part of our property, and the locals will go to jail, and the outsiders will be allowed to leave the country within a time limit. This can also be a source of impounded vehicles. There is also a part of smuggling, illegal modification, etc., will be impounded, we have a total of four large impounded vehicle sites, all of which are full and no one comes to take the car back, which is really distressing!"

Hamiler's words sounded awkward in Zheng Xudong's ears, "This is too TM to say!" But there is no way, who makes the actual situation of the family like this, luxury cars can be said not to be wanted, it is not a pity at all. It has been the last 50 years that everyone in the world has witnessed the transformation of this small village in the desert into the modern metropolis it is today. The reason why the desert can be turned into a city is that it is rich in oil, but the main reason that really makes them rich is the "petrodollar", that is, oil is pegged to the dollar. It has completely changed this desert.

On the helicopter, Zheng Xudong saw the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, which was just inaugurated on January 4 this year, and Hamil proudly introduced the building to him. Zheng Xudong thought to himself, where is this arranging for me to live, this has not yet arrived?

It may be that Allah heard his call, and Hamil said to him: "Mr. Zheng, you see, the front is the place where we have arranged for you to stay for these days." ”

Zheng Xudong saw a white building standing in the distance through the window of the plane, its shape looked very much like a sail, could it be that this is the world's most famous seven-star hotel, it seems that the Dubai government is still taking great pains to entertain him as a hero!

Minister Hamil showed that proud expression again, "Mr. Zheng, in order to thank you for your help to us, our chief has specially arranged for you to stay in the world's first seven-star hotel these days. Hope you're satisfied!"

"Thank you, Chief, for me, I'm very happy with your arrangement!" he said with a smile.
