Chapter 1430 The Strongest Fist Is Coming
Faced with Harmandan's invitation, Lin Feng had no reason to refuse. (Read the novel) Let’s not talk about the identity of the other party’s crown prince. Lin Feng only accepted the other party’s favor by asking the Burj Al Arab Hotel to persuade other guests to book rooms with panoramic sea views instead. Lin Feng naturally wanted to attend the banquet this time. What's more, it was an invitation from the Sheikh of Dubai, and Lin Feng had no reason to refuse.
"Crown Prince Harmandan, please wait a moment while I change my clothes. It would be a bit disrespectful to wear sweat-smelling clothes to see Sheikh Mohammed." Lin Feng joked.
"Mr. Lin was joking. No matter what clothes Mr. Lin wears to the banquet, my father will only be ecstatic and will not show any slightness." Although Harmandan said that he didn't mind, he still stood aside quietly. Wait for Lin Feng to change clothes.
20 minutes later, after Lin Feng took a bath and changed clothes, he followed Crown Prince Harmandan to the palace of Sheikh Mohammed.
"The boss is so proud. When I first came to Dubai, I was picked up by the Crown Prince and invited by the Sheikh. Tsk, tut, tut, it's so honorable." Rodman looked at the car as it drove away with a look of surprise. envy.
"Come on, with your virtue, you can get involved with some third-page girls. If you want to get involved with such people, do it in the next life! You should just play honestly in this life!" Jordan said angrily. In the past two seasons, although he suppressed Rodman, this kid still went out to have sex when he saw the opportunity, which made Jordan speechless with anger. He wanted to teach Rodman a lesson, but everyone was in his early 40s. He still scolded Rodman in front of him as before, and even warned him severely, but he couldn't do it.
Rodman chuckled. He also didn't take it seriously when Jordan took the opportunity to give him advice. In his view, the most important thing in life is enjoyment. Of course, he would not squander his body excessively. Everything he has now must be given by this body.
"Okay, the game is over. Wade, James, Yao Ming, Boozer, Howard, since you lost this time, be a man. Also, if you are strong enough, I believe the boss is not a stingy person. People. Okay, let’s do our own thing now!” Jordan clapped his hands and signaled everyone to disperse.
After the game just ended, James and others did not recover from the blow. Seeing that he was about to get the maximum salary, but was ruined by Lin Feng's weird goal, everyone would be shocked. Jordan was afraid that this kind of blow would affect the game next season, so he specially reminded everyone.
James, Wade and others are not stupid people. They recovered immediately after Jordan's prompting. Looking at the beauties in bikinis who have not dispersed all around, I started my hunting trip!
At this time, Lin Feng arrived at the palace of Chief Muhammad. What surprised Lin Feng was that Chief Muhammad actually greeted him in front of the palace in person. This was a courtesy reserved for welcoming heads of state. Lin Feng was a little flattered at this moment. However, what the other party is planning to do to greet me with such a great gift must not be simple.
Lin Feng took a breath and reminded himself secretly to be more careful when he stayed for a while.
"Haha, Mr. Lin, welcome, welcome, welcome to Dubai!" Mohammed gave Lin Feng a warm hug.
"Sheikh Mohammed, thank you for your hospitality. Without you, the players and I would not be able to live in such a beautiful room and see such a beautiful Taobao Women's Clothing Tmall Taobao Mall Taobao Women's Winter Jacket m sea view!" Lin Feng said with a smile.
"Haha, it's a trivial matter, a trivial matter. Let's go, Mr. Lin, I have prepared a banquet for you. Please try Dubai's delicacies and make sure you never come back!" Chief Mohammed enthusiastically pulled Lin Feng inside. .
In all countries in the Arab world, mutton and beef are essential foods. However, their method of cooking was unique. It was also the first time for Lin Feng to taste food from Arab countries, and he was very excited after hearing it. It has to be said that for Lin Feng, who had just done a lot of exercise, this delicious beef and sheep meal was just right for his appetite.
After a hearty meal, making a cup of tea amidst the gurgling sound of the stream, admiring the moonlight and the starry night sky is one of the joys of life. As for why there was the sound of flowing water, Lin Feng had to admire the luxury of the Arab royal family. Chief Muhammad actually built a huge rockery in his palace and dug a flowing stream. What's even more exaggerated is that Chief Muhammad actually moved the "perpetual motion machine" here.
There is a waterfall on the rockery. The water of the waterfall flows straight down. The huge water flow drives the water wheel to rotate, and the water wheel slowly sends the water up the mountain peak, and finally flows down from the waterfall, forming a perpetual motion machine!
Sweat profusely! This device is not complicated, but it requires a waterfall, a windmill, and water flow. This project is huge, and Chief Muhammad actually moved it to the palace, especially this mountain. If Lin Feng hadn’t noticed If wrong, it should be made of pure gold. And the windmill is naturally gold. As for the sparkling stones in the stream, as far as Lin Feng is concerned, they are probably rubies, emeralds and other gems.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, the total value of these things is probably hundreds of millions of dollars. I bet Sheikh Mohammed moved all of Dubai's gold reserves to this "rockery". ——Lin Feng was secretly speechless.
Seeing Lin Feng's astonished expression, Sheikh Mohammed felt a sense of satisfaction. When this "perpetual motion machine" made entirely of gold and gems was made, even Mohammed, the Sheikh of Dubai, felt distressed for a while. However, since it was made, all the distinguished guests invited to the palace, as long as they saw this "perpetual motion machine", would have the same astonished expression as Lin Feng. And every time he saw the distinguished guests showing this astonished expression, Mohammed's vanity would be greatly satisfied.
"Mr. Lin, are you satisfied with the food in Dubai?" Mohammed asked in a friendly manner.
"Yes, I enjoyed the food very much. I haven't enjoyed it so much in a long time." Lin Feng said politely.
"Then how does Mr. Lin feel about Dubai? What do you think of it?" Mohammed continued to ask.
"Yes, yes, the kingdom in the desert, like the gambling city of Las Vegas in the United States, is built in the desert. But Dubai is more beautiful than Las Vegas, and more attractive." Lin Feng sighed sincerely.
Compared with Las Vegas, Dubai is far better than Las Vegas in all aspects except gambling. As long as you have money, Dubai is indeed a paradise.
A greeting.
"By the way, Mr. Lin, Miss Avril's private plane arrived in Dubai two days ago. After making a scene at the Burj Al Arab, she left. Did you meet her? If you did, please tell her that she doesn't need to worry about the hotel's compensation. It is an honor for Dubai to receive a pop diva like her. That little bit of compensation is nothing!" Mohammed said with a smile.
"Thank you, thank you. Avril is just a little too willful. Please forgive me, Chief Mohammed. As for the compensation, I will pay it. It would be so embarrassing if the hotel suffered losses." Lin Feng smiled again and again.
This Mohammed brought up this matter at this time, and it seems that he is not a good person. Today's meal was very enjoyable, but the "chat" after the meal was not so relaxing. I am afraid that there is something embarrassing hidden in it. ——Lin Feng secretly alerted.
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and there is no love without reason in this world. This Sheikh Mohammed met me for the first time, and he not only made room for me, but also invited me to dinner, and exempted Avril from the compensation for the riot at the Burj Al Arab. There must be some purpose behind it.
"Come, Mr. Lin, let me introduce you to my wives and sons." At this time, Mohammed's wife and son came over. Mohammed pointed to several princesses and sons and introduced them to Lin Feng one by one.
Lin Feng greeted and sighed. It is said that the princes of the British royal family are all handsome. From Lin Feng's point of view, the princes of Dubai are not bad, and they are all handsome. If they go out, with their prince status and wealth, they will definitely be super diamond bachelors and idols in the hearts of thousands of beautiful girls.
Lin Feng sighed. You said that we are all human beings, why do they look so handsome!
"By the way, Mr. Lin, forgive me for saying one more thing. I think your love with Avril and Jessica must be a headache for you. You see, Ivanka just came out and it turned the world upside down. I have to say one more thing, Mr. Lin, why don't you consider joining an Arab nationality? You know, in the Arab world, national laws allow men to marry four wives. It just so happens that you have four women now, and there will be no problem if you marry them all. See how they are jealous!" Mohammed joked.
Lin Feng frowned. Although Mohammed was joking, it was not necessarily a joke when it came out of Mohammed's mouth. Does he have any deep meaning? Does he want to join the Arab nationality?
"Haha, Mr. Lin, don't think too much, I just said it casually. But if Mr. Lin really wants to join the Arab nationality, then I suggest you join our Dubai nationality. Our country does not rely on oil like other Arab countries. I think this will be more beneficial to Mr. Lin's development in Dubai." Mohammed made an invitation.
Lin Feng frowned.
"Mr. Mohammed, is this a formal invitation?" Lin Feng asked.
"Haha, no, no, not really. I just said that casually, casually. Of course, if Mr. Lin wants to join Dubai nationality, I will welcome him!" Mohammed's words were vague, making Lin Feng a little confused about what he meant.
"Haha, thank you for your kindness, Chief Mohammed. But now I have more than four women around me. If Ivanka is counted, there are six women. It seems that the Arab world can't accommodate me. Maybe I can only join a country in Africa!" Lin Feng laughed and rejected Mohammed's invitation.
Chief Mohammed smiled and didn't say anything more.
"By the way, Mr. Lin, I wonder what you think of the artificial palm island we are building in Dubai?" Mohammed asked with a smile.
Artificial Palm Island! An idea flashed through Lin Feng's mind, and it seemed that he had entered the main topic.
"Yes, the artificial Palm Island is quite good. The sunshine all year round, the picturesque white sandy beaches, and the islands floating above the sea level are all the things people dream of. I believe this artificial Palm Island will definitely be a global resort!" Lin Feng exclaimed.
Mohammed glanced at Lin Feng meaningfully.
"Then I wonder how Mr. Lin feels about Dubai? I mean compared to the Maldives!" Mohammed stared at Lin Feng closely.
Here comes the point! ——Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat.
When Mohammed mentioned the artificial Palm Island, Lin Feng realized that Mohammed's target should be the Maldives "World Island" which had been planned and was about to start construction.
"Haha, compared with the Maldives, Dubai is a richer country and a larger place. It can be said that Dubai is better than the Maldives in all aspects." Lin Feng smiled.
"In that case, I wonder why Mr. Lin proposed to build the "World Island" in the Maldives instead of in our Dubai? Mr. Lin, the Maldives has not started to build the "World Island" yet. If I invite Mr. Lin to cooperate with us in Dubai to jointly develop the "World Island", I wonder what Mr. Lin thinks?" Mohammed said seriously.
Lin Feng frowned. He had signed a contract with the Maldives, and the preliminary planning work had been completed. He was about to start construction. How could he terminate the cooperation with the Maldives at this time and turn to cooperate with Dubai? Isn't this a joke!
Of course, Lin Feng could also understand Mohammed's thoughts. After all, if the Maldives and Dubai built artificial islands at the same time, it would inevitably form a fierce competition in the future. That would not be a good thing for both parties who invested huge amounts of money. After all, one of the same ideas is enough. If there are two, wouldn't both parties have to bid against each other to compete for customers? In the end, both sides will suffer. Moreover, the concept of "World Island" was originally from Dubai, that is, it was thought up by the Sheikh Mohammed in front of him, but it was stolen by Lin Feng in advance. Do you think the other party will not be anxious!
"Sheikh Mohammed, I'm afraid it's difficult for me to agree to this matter." Lin Feng has already agreed to cooperate with the Maldives government, and he will not change partners temporarily. This is not good for his reputation at all. Moreover, in Lin Feng's view, cooperating with the Maldives is more beneficial.
"Mr. Lin, you should understand that in terms of foreign exchange reserves, the Maldives can never be compared with our Dubai. And to build an island like the "World Island", the funds required are not a small amount. Even if Mr. Lin is the richest man in the world, it may be a bit difficult to face such a huge amount of funds." Mohammed did not give up and continued to persuade.
Lin Feng still shook his head. As for funds, he is not short of them now. Moreover, although the Maldives is not as rich as Dubai, it can still afford to build a "World Island".
Mohammed frowned slightly.
"Mr. Lin, as long as you are willing to cooperate with us to jointly develop the "World Island", I can not only give you 30% of the shares, but also give you the diplomatic immunity of an Arab country. And you don't have to worry about your diplomatic immunity being taken back one day!" Mohammed said.
Lin Feng took a breath. This condition is quite generous, even more generous than the conditions offered by the Maldives. But why must Mohammed participate in Dubai's "World Island" plan? If it is just worrying about the competition with the Maldives "World Island", in Lin Feng's opinion, Mohammed should not be so worried. Although the ocean scenery of the Maldives is more beautiful, Dubai is not bad. And the "World Island" built by both parties can be said to be a god, and there is no contradiction.
Dubai's "World Islands" are aimed at the world's super-rich, while Maldives' "World Islands" are aimed at the world's middle class. Both sides target different customer groups. Why does Sheikh Mohammed care so much? Is he planning something else?
"Mr. Lin, I won't beat around the bush with you. First of all, I hope that our "World Islands" in Dubai are unique in the world and can attract tourists from all over the world to go to Dubai for vacation." Mohammed said seriously.
In Mohammed's view, although the "World Islands" of both sides do not conflict, one "World Island" is enough, and two are redundant, which will distract tourists and weaken Dubai's global uniqueness. Dubai, a city in the desert, is difficult to compete with other countries and regions without global uniqueness.
"Second, I think Mr. Lin will be a future financial leader. I want to work with you and develop together!" Mohammed continued.
Lin Feng, this business genius, has become familiar to the Arab world since he competed with Suleiman in all aspects. And Sheikh Mohammed is even more optimistic about Lin Feng. Of course, he was not only attracted by Lin Feng's business acumen, but also by Lin Feng's identity - Chinese.
In today's century of growing American hegemony, only the gradually rising China is the only country that may compete with the United States in the future. In order to prevent his country from becoming the next Iraq or Afghanistan in the future, Muhammad must build good relations with China. Of course, rashly contacting China too deeply will undoubtedly arouse the displeasure of the US government. Therefore, starting with establishing diplomatic relations with Lin Feng is undoubtedly a good way to save the country in a roundabout way.
"Third, I hope that Mr. Lin's "The Strongest Fist" can be held in Dubai. Here, Mr. Lin will not have many concerns like in the Maldives. Moreover, as long as Mr. Lin agrees to hold the "Strongest Fist" unlimited fighting competition in Dubai, we in Dubai will promise to build a professional world-class competition venue for Mr. Lin, and it will be permanently provided to Mr. Lin for free!" Muhammad threw another bomb.
Lin Feng was shocked. This condition is quite tempting! Originally, Lin Feng promised to hold the "Strongest Fist" unlimited fighting competition in the middle of the year, which was originally scheduled to be held in the Maldives. However, due to the strong protests from the people in the Maldives, it has been stagnant. Lin Feng was also thinking about whether to change the place. At this time, Muhammad proposed to hold the "Strongest Fist" unlimited fighting competition in Dubai, which was exactly what Lin Feng wanted. Moreover, the other party was willing to build a world-class competition venue for him to use permanently for free. This treatment was beyond reproach.
"Mr. Lin, we are very sincere. I wonder what Mr. Lin thinks?" Chief Muhammad said very sincerely.
Lin Feng frowned slightly. After thinking for a long time, he still shook his head helplessly. Regarding the construction of the "World Island" in the Maldives, Lin Feng has his own long-term considerations. The Maldives faces the vast Pacific Ocean, and by building the "World Island" with the Maldives, he can create gods and complete many things that cannot be seen in the light. On the contrary, it is not possible in Dubai. Everything must be decided by Mohammed, not by himself. Lin Feng doesn't like the feeling of being controlled by others.
Mohammed didn't expect that Lin Feng would refuse even though he proposed so many favorable conditions. This is a bit out of touch with the times!
"Sheikh Mohammed, although I can't cooperate with you to develop the 'World Island', I think there is no problem with holding the 'Strongest Fist' in Dubai." Lin Feng smiled.
Lin Feng didn't want to offend Mohammed completely. Now that the other party has proposed so many favorable conditions, he still refused them outright, which is a great insult to him. It is not a good thing to offend a Dubai sheikh. Therefore, Lin Feng decided to move the "Strongest Fist" to Dubai.
Dubai desires global uniqueness, and the "Strongest Fist" undoubtedly meets this requirement. What's more, those who come to Dubai are all wealthy people, and the lives of these wealthy people are still relatively empty. Watching the exciting and even bloody "Strongest Fist" unlimited fighting competition will undoubtedly stimulate their desires. This is also in line with Dubai's concept.
After thinking silently for a while, Mohammed nodded and agreed to cooperate with Lin Feng to jointly host the "Strongest Fist" unlimited fighting competition. After all, he didn't want to fall out with Lin Feng completely. Besides, although the "World Island" could not be the only one in the world, it was not bad that the "Strongest Fist" could be held in Dubai.
"Mr. Lin, I am very happy to cooperate with you, but I am also very frustrated that I can't cooperate with you further!" Mohammed said with joy and regret.
Lin Feng smiled.
"Sheikh Mohammed, I believe we will have more opportunities for cooperation in the future. I firmly believe this!" Lin Feng shook hands and said.
"Definitely!" Sheikh Mohammed laughed.
Then, the two sides quickly signed a cooperation agreement to jointly host the "Strongest Fist". Lin Feng was responsible for organizing and hosting the "Strongest Fist", and Dubai was responsible for receiving the players and selling tickets. The income was divided equally between the two parties.
After signing the agreement, Lin Feng returned to the "Sailboat Hotel". Looking at the beautiful bay in front of him, looking at the agreement in his hand, Lin Feng was in a good mood, but at this moment, a phone call came.
"Boss, please come back soon. This place is in chaos! If you don't come back, they will tear this place down!" Wu Zhaopu's mournful voice was heard.
