Chapter 636: World Island

……

On the premise that both sides deliberately avoided talking about work and created a friendly atmosphere, the lunch was always very pleasant. In the afternoon, Hamdan took Wang Zheng to tour the entire 'Sheikh Mohammed Palace' and arranged rooms for them.

It is said to be a room, but it is actually a large villa covering an area of more than 1,500 square meters, with three floors up and down, and 18 rooms are enough for Wang Zheng and his group of 6 people to live. Moreover, the greenery in front and back of the yard is pleasant enough.

"Boss, the room was checked and there was no problem!" Wang Qian walked over and said.

Nodding, Wang Zheng waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down on the sofa next to him.

"Wang Gan, Yuan Ba, in the past two days, the two of you have gone to the black market to investigate and find out the situation there. I'm going to make some articles with it in a few days! ”

"Yes!"

"Chen Qing?"

"Boss!"

"During the time we live here, you are responsible for communicating with Al Khan and the Sheikh Mohammed Palace."

"Yes!"

"Dian Wei, just follow me!"

"Understood, boss!"

"Taiyi?"

"Boss!"

After thinking for a while, Wang Zheng said: "After I have solved the other two things in my hand first, you will make a move!" However, before that, you might as well show your skills when you walk around the Chieftain, and it is better to attract Hamdan's attention without me saying it, so that it will be easier to gain his trust. Also, change your robes. Although this is Dubai, which is far more open than other Middle Eastern countries, it is a Muslim country in the end. ”

"Yes!"

After thinking about it carefully, there was nothing too urgent for the time being, Wang Zheng waved his hand.

"Alright, you guys go down first!"

After Wang Qian and the others got up and nodded respectfully, they turned around and walked out of the room.

After half a ring, Wang Zheng got up and paced in the room for a long time. His expression changed, thinking about what he might gain from this trip to Dubai.

"Buzz...!"

Wang Zheng, who stopped in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, pressed the global communication terminal on his left wrist.

"Boss, are you looking for me?"

Not long after, Wang Kai's figure appeared on the virtual display screen of the communication terminal.

Wang Zheng nodded, "I want to ask, how are you investigating the matter of the World Island?" ”

"Combined with the construction data provided by the Dubai Nahl Group, as well as our on-site investigation of the site, the World Island project is not optimistic."

"Tell me about it?" Wang Zheng frowned.

"Yes! There are two main reasons: first, at the beginning of the construction of the "World Island" project, it was stipulated that the raw materials of the project must be made of natural stone and sea sand, and should not contain any cement and steel bars, which of course maintains the original island style, but also makes the foundation of these reclaimed islands unstable, coupled with the erosion of sea water, resulting in the slow sinking of the world island. ”

"Second, the ebb of the world economy and the slow development of Dubai's tourism. The subprime mortgage crisis in the United States in 07 and the European debt crisis in 09 have not improved much in the world economy until now. So much so that Dubai's tourism industry has also been hit hard, and although it has now recovered, the outlook is not too promising. Without a large tourist population, the 'World Island' project, which relies on tourism, will lose its value of existence. Moreover, the unfinished World Island project, as well as a lot of bad news before it, have caused the project itself to become less attractive. If we invest a lot of money to complete this project, there will be a big question mark over how many of the world's richest people will be willing to pay for it, and whether we will eventually recoup the cost. ”

Nodding his head clearly, after thinking for a while, "If we take over this project and finally complete it, how much money will we need to invest?" ”

"20~3 billion US dollars!"

"So much?" Wang Zheng frowned.

"Yes! Although all the islands of the World Island have been watered, we need to re-strengthen the foundations, replenish the sea sand, and take care of the construction of buildings, vegetation and public facilities, and then we need to advertise and so on, which is not a small amount of money. In addition, if the boss wants to buy the whole project and make it entirely our own, I am afraid that we will have to pay 2 billion US dollars to the Dubai Nahl Group. ”

"Five billion dollars?" Wang Zheng shook his head slowly, if he had changed it to half a year ago, he might have considered acquiring the entire project. Because at that time, his ambition was still only to make more money. But now, becoming the behind-the-scenes controller of Southeast Asia is the ultimate in his pursuit, and as for making money, after gaining political influence, it is not too easy to make money. Therefore, although the difficult 'World Island' project is not a chicken rib, its importance is also much lower than when he considered it half a year ago.

"We don't have to think about buying it outright, we just need to work with Dubai Nahl Group to complete the whole project."

"Understood!" Wang Kai nodded, and after a slight hesitation, "Boss, in fact, we can completely give up the 'World Island' project. After all, Southeast Asia is nearly 5 million square kilometers and has a population of more than 600 million, and the huge market is enough to absorb any of our economic ambitions. ”

"I've considered your proposal more than once before. But in the end, they all gave up! After a pause, "Now how much money can be made from the 'World Island' project is secondary, and its existence is more of a bridge to bring us closer to Dubai." I need to use it as a stepping stone, with sophisticated medical skills, to open the purse strings of the royal families and the rich in the Middle East. The Abu Dhabi Sovereign Fund, the Saudi Sovereign Fund, the Kuwaiti Sovereign Fund have too much money. We have enough superior conditions, if we give up these trillions of dollars and don't use it, we are simply sorry for the reward of the Shennong system! ”

"Yes!"

"You sent me the information about the World Island project. Tomorrow I guess Hamdan will mention it, and when he talks about it, I'm going to know it. ”

"Okay, wait a minute!"

After spending a night and reading the information passed by Wang Qian, Wang Zheng had a bottom in his heart.

Time was like water, and soon the next day came.

After Wang Zheng finished practicing his tai chi in the courtyard, he saw Al Khan, the butler of the Sheikh Muhammad's Palace, walking in after Chen Qing opened the door.

"Mr. Wang, Young Master Hamdan, please go and have breakfast."

"Okay, I'll clean up and I'll be right over."

Hearing this, Arhan respectfully bowed his back, pushed the door and walked out.

"Remember what I told you!"

"Yes, boss!"

After instructing Wang Qian and Dian Wei, Wang Zheng went back to the room and changed into a loose white Chinese linen short-sleeved shirt, wearing a light brown half-cut pants underneath, and a pair of light cyan white-top flats on his feet. After looking in the mirror, he took a string of 108 Star and Moon Bodhi beads from the space bracelet and hung it around his neck, carrying its global communication terminal and space bracelet in his left hand, and a string of top-grade turquoise beads on his right wrist. I felt that it was almost thick, put on sunglasses, and walked out of the room.

Wang Zheng, who had already visited the entire Sheikh Mohammed Palace yesterday, was familiar with going to the Rose Hall where the restaurant was located this time.

In less than five minutes, I saw Hamdan who was already waiting inside.

"Haha, King. Originally, I wanted to remind you to change into a light outfit. Now it seems that it is not needed! ”

After a quick look at Wang Zheng, Hamdan smiled.

After a simple hug with him, "My friend, Dubai is a tourist destination, and I don't want to wear a suit and leather shoes every day while I'm here." And this casual outfit suits me perfectly! ”

Hamdan nodded, "This kind of clothes with traditional Chinese style is really handsome on you." I think the beauties of Jumeirah Beach will be happy to treat you to a drink and have a great night together! ”

"Haha, if they're pretty enough, I don't think I won't say no."

The two laughed at each other and had breakfast. After a half-hour walk, digesting food, get on the prepared helicopter.

"Where are we going?" Wang Zheng said.

"Burj Khalifa, The Palm, Jumeirah Beach, Dubai Mall and many more, today I'm taking you on a tour of the whole of Dubai. It's also good to do the friendship of the landlord, so that you have a basic understanding of this place. ”

"Okay, then I'll hand it over to you today!" Wang Zheng said with a smile.

"Hehe, no problem!"

The helicopter wasn't too fast, but it didn't take much time to get there when it was not far from the city of Dubai. But this time it didn't land at the Burj Al Arab, but landed on top of a villa in the middle of a luxury villa area.

"This is another place of mine to entertain friends!"

Wang Zheng nodded and looked at the villa briefly.

By domestic standards, a 3,000-square-meter villa in front of it is already considered top-notch. But compared to the Mohammed Rose Palace, which directly occupies an oasis, one of the two is a commoner and the other is a nobleman, and the gap between the two is too great.

When the two of them came down from the tarmac on the roof, the servant who had already received the news here had already prepared the vehicle for the two of them.

It's not a sports car, it's a Lincoln length. Obviously, the Lincoln Extension was made to order, with a thicker and wider body and more ornate interior accessories.

On top of that, the Lincoln Lengthening is better for talking about a few things than a sports car.

Because I didn't plan to stay here too much, I left quickly after the car drove out and the two of them got in.

After leaving the villa area and driving on the main road, the bustling scene of Dubai slowly appeared in front of Wang Zheng's eyes. The high-rise buildings and inter-room buildings tell the prosperity of Dubai, the endless flow of vehicles on the streets, and the long queues of people, which is enough to show that the city has recovered well after the economic crisis, and the status of the world's famous tourist city, the trading capital of the Middle East, and the financial and economic center is still there.

With the bustling city in front of him, Wang Zheng's worries about the profitability of the 'World Island' project after its completion have disappeared a lot.
