Chapter 4002: Admitting Defeat
Harmandan felt angry. Although countries in the Arab world do depend on the United States and are dependent on the United States in many areas. But after all, he is the ruler of Dubai and a sheikh of the United Arab Emirates. In terms of status, he is equivalent to the president of the United States. No matter how powerful your Boeing company is, you are still just a company president, just a businessman. You are far from the level of 'g23', but you threaten yourself in front of yourself. This is too presumptuous.
"President Kandi, are you threatening me?" Chief Harmandan said sullenly.
President Kandi smiled slightly, but was not afraid.
"Chief Harmandan, you are speaking harshly. I just think that our cooperation is most conducive to your country's consolidation of its position in West Asia. Dubai is the second largest emirate in Arabia after Abu Dhabi and the most populous emirate. It is a miracle country built in the desert!" President Kandi boasted, but then changed the subject, "But compared to other emirates, Dubai has the biggest disadvantage, and that is the share of oil in the fiscal GDP. Very little, about 6%. Today’s prosperity in Dubai is entirely driven by tourism.”
Chief Harmandan frowned. What did Kandi want to say?
"Dubai may appear to be magnificent, but it is also very weak on the inside. Once there is a problem with funds and a financial crisis, the financial empire built by Dubai will collapse!" President Kandi chuckled, "Dubai's economic model is very single. , mainly relies on port transportation and tourism. Its main reliance is on Dubai’s population flow, and tourism will be the first to suffer if the world economy weakens.”
Harmandan snorted coldly.
"Our economy in Dubai is not that fragile yet. Our real estate economy has also brought us a lot of taxes. More and more wealthy people in the world are buying houses in Dubai, and more and more companies are opening their headquarters in Dubai. President Kandi , Dubai’s economy is by no means as fragile as you think!” Harmandan shouted coldly.
"Haha, real estate, Sheikh Harmandan, please forgive me for being offended. As far as I know, Dubai is currently using debt to build real estate. One-fifth of the world's heavy machinery construction equipment is in Dubai, and hundreds of thousands of workers are building in Dubai. In this case, once the capital chain breaks, Dubai will fall into an unprecedented period of financial difficulties, and all the current prosperity will be destroyed, and this will inevitably lead to a large number of wealthy people. The escape of Dubai and the flight of rich people will also lead to more and more tourists no longer coming to Dubai, and the scarcity of tourists will also lead to a reduction in cargo at the port. Eventually, Dubai will be abandoned by the world. It will replace Dubai and become the new center of the Arab world!" Kandi sneered.
Dubai is just a country built on money. Compared with other Arab emirates, Dubai lacks the most important resource - oil. Now Dubai's oil money is drying up.
In a few years, I'm afraid the oil fields will be completely dry. And there is a lack of oil resources. These Arab Emirates can only wait to die! Although Dubai has depleted its own oil resources and is forward-looking to develop other economies.
However, Dubai wants to use the gold dollar to build a super city and use tourism to develop its economy. This idea is correct, but Dubai lacks necessary elements of the tourism economy. This is just like Las Vegas has a gambling industry that attracts gamblers from around the world, Monaco has a complete tax-free policy to attract global wealthy people, what does Dubai have? Dubai has previously relied on various world-first titles to attract tourists. But this kind of title of No. 1 in the world is very fragile. At most, it is just a novelty. After the novelty wears off, tourists will no longer be so strange. If we want to continue to retain tourists, we must continue to invest in the Dubai government and continue to create various projects to attract tourists. And these all require money.
Under normal circumstances, money is no problem. But once there is an economic crisis, it will be troublesome. As for when the economic crisis will come, Kandi doesn't know, nor is he clear, and as far as he predicts, there should be no economic crisis in the short term. Of course, even if there is, it will have no impact on Boeing. No matter how severe the economic crisis is, people in this world still need planes to travel. Unless the aircraft no longer uses oil and uses other energy sources, that will have an impact on Boeing. For now, it's still very early.
However, although the economic crisis has not had any impact on Boeing, it is no problem for Condi to scare Chief Harmandan.
"The economic crisis is here to stay. Chief Harmandan, based on the information I currently have, a financial crisis may occur by the end of this year or next year, and its scale will sweep the world. How will Dubai cope with this crisis? How can Dubai continue to maintain its status in the Arab world despite the financial crisis? Sheikh Harmandan, have you ever thought about it?" President Kandi said.
Harmandan had no reaction after hearing this. In his opinion, this was probably Kandi's alarmism. Now that the world economic situation is so good, how could a financial crisis break out? But Harmandan had no reaction, but Lin Feng was shocked.
This financial crisis will really happen. Judging from the information Lin Feng has obtained from Soros, if he and Leo Vanta hadn't been secretly rescuing the market and acquiring various real estate properties, the financial crisis would have already appeared. Moreover, Madoff's "Ponzi scheme" may have been exposed long ago. But how did Philip Conti know? Did he find any clues?
However, when Lin Feng looked carefully at Philip Candy, he found a touch of cunning that was not easy to detect on his face. Although this cunning smile flashed past, Lin Feng still noticed it. My heart suddenly relaxed, thinking that this Philip Condi must be alarmist. Talking about the financial crisis is just nonsense.
"President Kandi, I don't think a financial crisis will break out. Even if a financial crisis breaks out, I don't think Boeing will be able to save Dubai. I learned a saying in China - the mountain will fall, the water will flow, and the people will not be able to rely on it. Everyone can only rely on themselves!" Harmandan said coldly, "So, if you want to impress me, you must come up with enough chips."
Kandi had just racked his brains and prepared a series of words to scare Harmandan so that he could rely on him to sign a contract with him while being frightened. After all, in his opinion, Harmandan is just a young boy. A young boy of this age was born in a royal family like Dubai. He grew up with a golden key in his mouth and has never been short of it in his life. Money should be easy to fool around with. He had never thought about it, but he was rejected so cleanly, which made him very surprised and angry.
"Chief Harmandan, do you think Airbus's conditions can be more favorable than ours?" Kandi said angrily.
Before Harmandan could speak, Lin Feng spoke.
"Of course, all conditions being equal, our 'Airbus' is US$1 billion cheaper than you!" Lin Feng said frivolously, "No matter what price your Boeing offers, our 'Airbus' is definitely US$1 billion cheaper than you!"
What a scoundrel! This guy is such a scoundrel! This topic is back to its original point. Kandi looked annoyed. In all his years of running Boeing and selling tens of thousands of airplanes, he has never met such a person.
"Mr. Lin, what if our Boeing's 200 Boeing 747s and 100 Boeing 767s only sell for US$1 billion!" Kandi said fiercely. Of course, this price is obviously impossible, and Boeing will never agree to such conditions. If such a promise is made, Boeing will probably lose money. He was just trying to squeeze Lin Feng. Lin Feng was purely disgusting.
Who would have expected!
"If this is the case, then we, Airbus, will order 300 aircraft for Emirates Airlines for free this time! Just treat it as a marketing promotion!" Lin Feng directly slapped the table and said.
puff! President Kandi spit out the tea in anger. Are you such a scoundrel? This is an order worth 95 billion US dollars, and you actually said it was free! You are so nonsense!
"Lin Feng, are you negotiating? Are you such a negotiator?" Kandi slammed the table and pointed at Lin Feng and shouted.
Slap the table? I’m better at taking pictures!
Lin Feng slapped his palm down, and there was a loud 'bang' sound. Then Lin Feng stood up, pointed at Kandi, and also roared, "Kangdi, if you can give me 1 billion, I can get it for free! If you want to tell me that I'm talking nonsense, you More nonsense than me!”
Buzz~~~~~ Kandi felt dizzy, his ears buzzed, and his chest felt tight. He couldn't catch his breath for a long time. Lin Feng's lion's roar is not something ordinary people can bear. Especially since Kandi is over fifty years old and his vitality and blood are declining, it will be even worse.
"Harmandan, if he dares to pay 1 billion US dollars, I will do it for free! I don't want to talk about this deal anymore. Kandi, do you have a better offer? If not, then it's finalized. Of course, if you offer money to build airplanes in Dubai, then I will give up and give up this deal to you!" Lin Feng said coldly.
puff! This time, Kandi was really angry and vomiting blood. Submitting money to repair aircraft, they treat Boeing as a charity. Is there anyone doing this kind of business?
"Okay, okay, Lin Feng, you are ruthless, you are ruthless! Chief Harmandan, since Lin Feng is building an airplane for you for free, then I'll take my leave!" Kandi's face turned livid, and he turned around and walked away. He was very angry with Lin Feng, but he swore that he would give Lin Feng a good look. Of course, not only Lin Feng, but also Dubai, he will definitely make Dubai look good! It's not that easy to dare to join forces to play Boeing!
