Chapter 263: Super Contract Big Order (Four More Requests for Subscription)
Hamdan has been in Shangdu for several days, and he will end his trip after today.
The venue decoration of this high-level signing ceremony was also basically entrusted to the Hilton Hotel, such as seat cards, hostesses, conference signs, audio, flowers, etc.
The media and guests who received the news were also invited on time, and at about 10 o'clock in the morning, the media guests who attended the meeting signed in to enter the venue.
Especially people in the media industry, they were also surprised when they received this invitation, but they didn't expect the coastline company to suddenly make a big move, and from the specifications of this world-class signing ceremony, they knew that there was definitely something to be out.
At half past ten in the morning, Ye Hua's special car arrived at the Hilton Hotel, and the person in charge of the organizer did not slack off when he learned of his arrival, and went to receive him in person as soon as possible.
As soon as Ye Hua entered the venue, it caused quite a stir, and the special reporters of sixty or seventy mainstream media in the hall carried media equipment and kept taking pictures.
"I've kept you waiting, Your Highness the Prince."
Ye Hua walked to the signing table with a dark red velveteen floor, with small flowers, table signs, microphones on the table, and large flower baskets on both sides of the stage.
Hamdan had already come to the venue and waited for a long time, and when he saw Ye Hua coming with a smile, he immediately got up from his seat and shook hands with him briefly, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, you seem to be in a good mood, you must have encountered something good." ”
Both sides smiled, and outsiders sounded like polite words, but Ye Hua naturally understood what he meant, the brother-in-law was a very real person, and the value of this eighty-fifty discount was given, and he immediately replied calmly: "Of course it's a good thing, thinking of the upcoming cooperation, there is no reason not to be happy about this perfect win-win situation, what do you say?" His Royal Highness the Prince. ”
"Agreed."
After chatting for a while, the two sides invited each other to sit at the signing table, and Hamdan was also in good spirits, and he couldn't wait for this moment.
At 10:40, the signing ceremony officially began, and the host first introduced the attendees of the guests and made opening remarks.
“…… The main content of the signed project is the latest major technological breakthrough made by Shoreline, that is, the emerging technological achievement of seawater desalination using carbon nanotubes, which is an application technology that does not require energy consumption and does not need to configure large equipment to generate a strong electric field to complete the desalination process of seawater. ”
The media at the scene were quite sideways, but the host only gave a brief introduction to the content of the signed project, the reporters present and most of the guests attending the meeting were non-professionals, and the desalination technology was not a new concept, so naturally there was not much turmoil, but a few people in the industry showed shocked eyes after listening.
The host continued: "This time, Prince Hamdan on behalf of Dubai and the coastline company will reach a new round of strategic business cooperation agreements, which will produce a transaction contract of up to 18.5 billion US dollars, and the coastline company will provide large-scale desalination services for Dubai, including urban domestic water, industrial chemical water, agricultural irrigation water, and sandbar greening water, and the coastline company will provide more than 1 billion cubic meters of fresh water resources for Dubai every year." ”
If it was a painless announcement in front, then the host's remarks just disclosed directly blew up the reporters present.
"Oh my God, $18.5 billion contract?"
"1 billion cubic meters of fresh water resources seems to have exceeded Dubai's fresh water consumption in the whole of last year, which is ...... How? ”
"Is the desalination technology developed along the coastline so magical?"
Before the guests and reporters had time to digest the news, the host's introduction to the friendly cooperation of the project had ended, and the guests were invited to come to the stage, and at the same time, two high-value hostesses came to the signing desk to guide and place the signing folder and pen.
At this time, it was 10:55 a.m., under the guidance of two etiquette ladies dressed in cheongsam, the reporters at the scene also hurriedly took pictures of Ye Hua and Hamdan writing and signing, and then the etiquette ladies exchanged the text of the signing folder and signed again.
The process was very formal, and then Ye Hua and Hamdan took a group photo under the guidance of Miss Manners.
Under the witness of the public media, a $18.5 billion super contract order officially came into effect, and many domestic media reporters slandered in their hearts, worthy of being local tyrants, and simply inhumane.
The guests at the meeting also sighed with envy, thinking that Ye Hua signed a contract of 14.9 billion US dollars with Dubai last year, which is equivalent to 230 billion yuan according to the real-time exchange rate.
By contrast, today's reporters immediately think about how much of a sensation the coastline's miraculous desalination technology will bring to the whole world, and how much impact it will have on the Middle East, which is desperately short of fresh water resources.
No one would have thought that the coastline company would make such a big news without making a sound, and a good IT giant would do the business of the water company so unprofessionally.
Now, there is an answer to the speculation about the acquisition of Frontier Nano and Shin-Etsu Chemical by Coastline Company some time ago, and they are analyzing the commercial layout of Coastline Company's commercial merger and acquisition in the field of semiconductors.
After the group photo, Ye Hua returned to his seat again, and immediately picked up the microphone and said with a smile: "Coastline Company has made a new breakthrough in carbon nanotube desalination technology, which is an emerging technology that can change the world, water is the source of life, we will be committed to providing services to areas around the world that lack fresh water resources, Dubai is just the beginning of ......"
Then, Prince Hamdan also spoke: "Shoreline Company is a great high-tech company in the world, and I am honored to be a long-term strategic partner and establish a deep friendship with Mr. Ye. We are looking forward to this partnership and the future of Dubai." ”
Then he said gracefully: "In the logic of Dubai, we not only have to be the first, we also have a deeper understanding that we are in the desert, except for a piece of yellow sand, there is nothing, although we are in the Middle East oil-producing region, but Dubai only has a small bit of oil." Needs are the mother of invention, and if you don't have anything, that's the challenge. There are too many countries that are richer than us, but they have not done anything comparable to us, we have brains, you know, it is not money that makes people, but people who make money, although we are a small country, but we have great vision and ambition......"
Hamdan has shown great pride and ambition in Dubai's development achievements.
More than a dozen foreign media also came to the scene, including six or seven European and American media, and they also had mixed feelings when they saw the Prince of Dubai so happy, especially the American media.
This is already an extremely strong signal, Dubai has looked east, the UAE is looking east, especially the coastline company will inevitably further expand international water services throughout the Middle East, such cheap freshwater resources for the Middle East countries only, its dependence on the world's industrial powers based on Middle East oil.
Then it may create a thorny question for the West, Dubai has looked east, but what about other Middle Eastern countries?
