The competition started soon. After all, in such a large venue, it is impossible to just hold a hurdle race in one day. After the competition here, the staff cleans up the scene and also conducts, for example, the 100-meter dash or other track and field competitions.
First, the sound of a radio introducing the players was heard, and every time a player was introduced, there was a burst of cheers. Especially when introducing some players from big countries, the atmosphere is very lively because of the large audience.
The game is about to start. Liu Xiang is on the fourth track. Yang Dongxu and Jack are both leaning on the sofa, looking at the field calmly. It seems that this is not a bet about winning or losing, it is just an ordinary game.
Kurt glanced at the two people from the corner of his eye, took a sip of the juice in front of him without saying anything. The royal family of the United Arab Emirates is basically a royal family, so they also need to abide by the teachings of the royal family.
Therefore, although tourists are not prohibited from drinking alcohol in the UAE, there are strict regulations on where alcohol is sold. And few people in the royal family drink, especially high-ranking heirs to the throne like Kirk.
The starting gun sounded and there was no false start so the race officially started. Yang Dongxu and Jack didn't seem to care about the game on the surface, but their eyes on the field were all focused on Liu Xiang.
When Liu Xiang took the lead and continued to lead, he crossed the finish line in just ten seconds. Kurk put down the juice in his hand. Although 10 million is actually nothing to him, at most it will only reduce his consumption this year. But losing money is obviously very unpleasant.
The second most unhappy person was naturally Jack, because when Liu Xiang crossed the finish line, his score was 12.91 seconds. If this score counts, then he really broke the 110-meter hurdles world record that had been held for 11 years and created his own record of.
Without leaving Jack's troubled mood to wait any longer, the referee quickly confirmed that the result was valid, and the scene was once again filled with deafening cheers.
"You don't want to influence the organizing committee and do some post-match operations, do you?" Yang Dongxu looked at Jack with a smile on his face, without the generosity and gentlemanliness of a winner.
"You think I'm a shameless person?"
"Your previous operations were quite shameless, and this is not the first time that your country has been shameless in taking advantage of others." Yang Dongxu said directly without any euphemism or evasion.
Kurt glanced at Yang Dongxu in surprise. The two had contacted each other on the phone before, and they got along well during this time. The Chinese man in front of him, who was younger than him, gave him the impression that he had a humble appearance but a proud heart.
He has never seen the other party look so domineering or aggressive. But thinking about what happened between the two people before, Kurk felt relieved and gave a thumbs up in his heart to express his approval.
But Yang Dongxu could say this, but he couldn't. The former said this as a businessman, because it was okay to say so based on his previous experience. Anyway, the United States has always been a country that does not matter how others criticize it, as long as it gets real benefits.
But if he said this as the crown prince, the nature would change.
"I hope you can still speak so forcefully in the future." Jack had no masochistic tendencies. Now that he had spoken, he could no longer gain the upper hand. He stood up and prepared to leave.
"I'm going to sell my properties in Europe and the United States, and I'm not just selling shares in Nokia's mobile phone business. I'm also going to sell Motorola and Ericsson. I don't know if you have the ability to stop me from selling these things at a good price." Yang Dongxu had no idea at all. The attitude of shutting up when you get a benefit.
Jack, who had always been calm and calm, couldn't help but show a trace of anger on his face, and quickly left the VIP box without saying anything.
If Yang Dongxu buys these things, he can act as a troublemaker. This makes it impossible for Yang Dongxu to purchase these things, or it will cost more to purchase these things.
But when it comes to selling these things, even American businessmen are not monolithic when it comes to profit. After all, selling these things has nothing to do with leaking technology or selling American property.
Instead, they are recycling high-quality American assets. Recycling such high-quality assets can also make a lot of money. Even though Jack is very influential in the American business circle and even has influence on some American consortiums, he cannot stop them from buying these things.
Because in the face of huge profits, the person who bought back these things from Yang Dongxu is likely to be the American consortium itself. How can he stop it?
"Do you really want to dispose of those assets?" Kurk asked.
"It does need to be dealt with. At present, there is not much room for real estate appreciation in the European and American markets. As for the shares of the three major mobile phone manufacturers, do you think I, a foreigner, can always hold such large shares?
At present, China is one of the countries with the fastest growth rate of mobile phone sales in the world, so as long as it maintains its share of mobile phone sales. It would be a good time to cash out these shares while the market is currently booming. "Yang Dongxu spread his hands and looked helpless.
Kurker nodded to express his understanding. There are not just one or two wealthy businessmen in the world who have been tortured by American hegemony. Cashing out while you can sell your mobile phone shares at a premium is a good choice.
Otherwise, when the United States uses various business regulations and even shamelessly modifies a set of business regulations that completely deceives you, it will be difficult to withdraw.
"I heard that you and Mr. Kennedy are good friends." Kurk sat up straight.
Yang Dongxu's eyes paused for a moment, originally thinking that Kurt invited him to the VIP room because he left Jack just now. Now it seems that the other party's purpose of coming to Athens in person from the beginning was not just to attract investors for Dubai real estate.
"The relationship is okay." Yang Dongxu didn't say it too fully.
"I wonder if I can give you a recommendation?" Kurk stopped beating around the bush.
"I'll talk about it after asking what he means." Yang Dongxu pondered for a moment and said.
...
After the 110-meter hurdles race, Yang Dongxu didn't have much interest in the remaining races, so he bid farewell to Kurk and left the VIP box. Why did Kurt, the mental analyzer, want to get on the line with the Kennedy family.
Obviously, wanting to tie up with the Kennedy family has nothing to do with oil. At present, the cooperation between the major oil companies in the Middle East and the United States is relatively stable.
In addition, the oil market has begun to rise continuously in recent years, and both parties are in a honeymoon period, and because oil prices continue to rise, it will last for a long time. There is no reason for the UAE to want to change its partner.
If it's not oil, it's probably arms. If you want to find investors, Kurk won't go to the Kennedy family. Because everyone knows that the Kennedy family is still relatively rich in political resources.
However, compared with ordinary people, the economy is still suitable for the rich, but when it comes to the rich, their property is a bit stretched.
Therefore, arms are the most likely thing to talk about. Don’t look at the wealthy people in the Middle East waving a lot of money to buy whatever they want. However, although the United States does not have a very strict ban on them when it comes to purchasing arms, it is for them to purchase American arms at high prices.
If you want to buy more cost-effective arms from other countries, you don’t want to be cut off by the Americans. Those bans started to come into effect in an instant. Even if some countries were willing to sell them, the tycoons in the Middle East were willing to buy them. But the United States, the world's police, just cuts in and prevents you from trading.
However, if the Kennedy family is approached for arms purchase restrictions in other countries, it will definitely be useful for the Kennedy family to be willing to contribute.
But Yang Dongxu is not optimistic about such a deal. First, the butt determines the head. Even if the Kennedy family is in decline now, it is still the political family in the United States. Therefore, the other party may be able to help Kurk buy some other American arms that he could not buy before at a slightly preferential price.
It is basically impossible for the Kennedy family to restrain the U.S. military ban and allow the Middle East to purchase weapons from other countries. You must know that those arms dealers in the United States are backed by major consortiums. It will be damned if they agree to such a plan.
The Kennedy family is currently in a weak position, and it is impossible to go against those extremely influential arms dealers because of such a thing, even if Kurk is willing to give shares in the oil fields.
Therefore, Kurk's search for the Kennedy family's arms operations may only be superficial, and there may be a deeper meaning. But this is not what Yang Dongxu needs to worry about.
What he needs to care about now is to use his shares in the mobile phone industry to obtain some useful telecommunications technologies from telecom operators such as Nokia, Motorola and Ericsson.
Fill up your 3G background that is barely sitting on the dining table, and better start towards 4G. Then wait for the emergence of smartphones to disrupt the current almost fixed layout of the world's mobile phone industry.
And quietly watch the coming of the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis and prepare in advance. When the time comes, he will take the opportunity to completely transform himself, break free from the shackles he currently has on him, and truly be able to stand head-on in front of those consortiums.
"Is there still room in the airplane cargo compartment? Put the things I bought in it too." When they returned to the villa, the women continued to discuss cosmetics excitedly. When Yang Dongxu came back, Bai Feng said.
It is already ready to be launched from the telecommunications company and accept the Wei family's industry. Bai Feng, who is no longer Yang Dongxu's direct competitor, is now particularly relaxed when facing him, with the feeling that he treats this place as his own home without being polite at all.
"It should be no problem, but we will go back tomorrow. Flying Demon is not Yanjing, so if you want to send things to Yanjing, go to the Demon City and find someone to transport it to Yanjing yourself." Yang Dongxu said.
"We happen to be going back tomorrow. Do you mind if we get on your private plane? Just go to Magic City. I will start a business in Magic City in the future. The business atmosphere is better than Yanjing. I have already bought a house in Magic City." Bai Feng said with a smile.
Yang Dongxu was speechless for a while. He had shown taking advantage so vividly, what else could he say?
Wei Fei next to him was undoubtedly more shameless. Hearing his wife's words, he did not dare to look at Yang Dongxu and pretended to be watching his son playing with Xiao Wenchen.
