After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Bill Gates said with aggrieved face: "Zhuang, you don't regard me as a friend. Didn't we agree that I will go to Beijing to visit your museum..."
"I...did I tell you?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned when he heard this. It seemed that Bill Gates said that he would go to Beijing to visit his museum if he had the opportunity in the future, but he didn't say that he would go with him this time?
"Oh, Zhuang, aren't you welcome?" Bill put on a pitiful look, not caring at all about his status as the richest man.
This person is also a person who is destined to get along with others. Bill Gates felt very happy getting along with Zhuang Rui. This young man did not regard him as the richest man in the world at all, but talked to him as a friend. This made Jiu Ju
Bill Gates, who was in power, felt very strange.
As for Zhuang Rui's pursuit of the trend, Bill Gates doesn't pay much attention to it now. For people like him, material pursuits are far less important than spiritual needs.
"Welcome, of course, Mr. Bill, I believe you will have a very interesting trip to Beijing..."
Zhuang Rui's response was very fast. Bill Gates was willing to go to Beijing to visit his museum. That would be something that would make the Dingguang Museum a big draw. And...it seems that the Imperial Seal will be on display in these few days.
If Bill Gates could be allowed to appear at the first exhibition of the Imperial Seal, the advertising effect would probably not only be a sensation across the country, but would probably be reported by major newspapers around the world.
"I am very much looking forward to this trip to Beijing..."
Bill Gates laughed when he heard this. Since the 1990s, he has been to China ten times in total and is no stranger to this country.
"Prince William, Your Highness Bolkiah Bhutan and Alwaleed, I know the purpose of your visit, but... I really will not sell Zhuifeng..."
After chatting with Bill, Zhuang Rui looked at the other people and once again expressed his meaning in a very firm tone.
William seemed to have no reaction to Zhuang Rui's words, while the Brunei-Bhutan prince looked at each other. The latter took a step forward and said, "Mr. Zhuang, I will pay you 300 million pounds to officially become your
Please seriously consider purchasing this bloody horse..."
"Three hundred million pounds?"
This offer made Bill Gates stunned for a moment even though he had stayed out of the matter. You must know that although he is richest in the world, if he is asked to spend 300 million pounds, Bill must also sell some of his shares.
Just some time ago, Bill Gates sold Microsoft shares four times for some public welfare undertakings, cashing out more than 700 million U.S. dollars, which was similar to Alwaleed's bid.
"Damn it, are you throwing money at my buddy?" This was the first time Zhuang Rui truly felt what it means to be rich and powerful, and it made him lose his temper at all.
I have long heard that Arab oil tycoons are stupid and spend a lot of money, but Zhuang Rui never expected that this middle-aged bearded man would be so generous?
Three hundred million pounds? It's enough for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to buy a Premier League club to play in. "Didn't I hear that these oil tycoons like to play football? Why are they focusing on their own pursuit of success?"
Seeing Zhuang Rui's silence, Alwaleed became a little anxious and urged: "Mr. Zhuang, how are you? I am very sincere..."
Before the Macau International Horse Racing was held, the horse racing sport with the highest prize money in the world was the Dubai Horse Racing in Arabia, with a total prize money of US$15 million.
However, unlike Macau, gambling is strictly prohibited in Dubai Horse Racing. All prizes are paid by the Arab royal family. To be precise, most of the funds are paid by the crown prince in front of him.
Now that the Macau horse racing has stolen the limelight, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very unhappy, so he wants to attract the attention of the world's horse racing world to the Dubai horse racing by buying and following the trend.
As for money, Crown Prince Alwaleed doesn't care at all. The constant flow of oil underground in the Arab world creates huge wealth for him every day. Money comes easily and he spends it freely.
In major casinos around the world, the most welcome and distinguished guests among casino owners are these Arab oil tycoons. They even export hundreds of millions of dollars in one night without changing their expressions. His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, has at least done something for the people of Macau.
Contributions of more than US$500 million.
Compared with Alwaleed, although the Brunei-Bhutanese is also worth a lot and once sat on the throne of the richest man in the world, after Alwaleed made the price, Bolkiah-Bhutan remained silent.
"Your Highness Alwaleed, I am very grateful for your love for Zhui Feng, but I have said before that no matter how much money is spent, I will not sell Zhui Feng..."
Although Zhuang Rui was also shocked by the price, to him, 300 million pounds was just an extra string of zeros at the end of the Swiss bank's deposit slip, and it did not have a fatal temptation for Zhuang Rui.
"500 million pounds..."
Alwaleed didn't wait for Zhuang Rui to speak and immediately offered another price. He still didn't believe that there was anything in this world that was not for sale?
In Alwaleed's view, the reason why Zhuang Rui was unwilling to sell Zhuifeng was simply that the price he offered dissatisfied Zhuang Rui.
This is easy to handle. If he raises the purchase price, it will be over. Anyway, the price of oil is soaring now. The money he paid for buying the horse will eventually be earned back by those who drive cars. They say that the Arab oil tycoons are stupid and have too much money. In fact,
Not necessarily, since people all over the world are their cash machines.
Although the Arab Crown Prince may not be the richest man in the world, he is definitely the most outstanding prodigal son on the planet. Zhuang Rui just shook his head, and he directly added 200 million pounds.
Now Bill Gates was truly moved. He looked at Zhuang Rui through the thick glass lenses. Bill Gates wanted to know whether this young Chinese man could resist such naked temptation.
"This is not a matter of money, Your Highness Alwaleed, I cannot go against my conscience..."
Zhuang Rui swallowed hard. Is this bearded man crazy? You know, 500 million pounds is enough to cause a coup in a small African country, and it is very likely to win.
"Eight hundred million pounds, Mr. Zhuang, is pounds, not depreciated dollars. This is my last offer. I hope you can seriously consider it..."
Alwaleed interrupted Zhuang Rui almost rudely. Since he was born, his family has had endless wealth. He has lived for more than 40 years, and there is nothing on this planet that he can't imagine.
Zhuang Rui's repeated rejections made Alwaleed lose his mind and offered a price that only a madman would give.
However, the sky-high price offered by Alwaleed made Zhuang Rui calm down completely, and the trace of impatience in his heart when he heard about 300 million pounds just now disappeared.
Speaking of the astronomical figure of 800 million pounds, it is just a sentence, which does not give people an intuitive feeling. If Alwaleed puts this money on the boat, maybe Zhuang Rui will really be a little moved.
"Eight hundred million pounds, Mr. Alwaleed, for you, Chasing the Wind is just a commodity, but in my heart, it is my partner, brother, and friend. It cannot be bought or sold with money...
…”
Zhuang Rui once again reiterated the deep friendship between him and Zhui Feng, but Zhuang Rui asked himself, if he was in poverty, could he withstand this temptation?
In this world, people's confidence comes from their economic strength. If Zhuang Rui is still running around for three meals a day, can he still make such a calm choice?
"No...not for sale?"
Alwaleed suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. Eighty million pounds was enough to buy the top 10 best horses in the world, but the young man in front of him actually said "no sale"
These two words?
"Okay, Zhuang, I hope you won't regret today's decision..."
After being rejected many times by Zhuang Rui, Alwaleed also lost patience. Perhaps he has never suffered as many rejections in his life as he does today.
When he said goodbye and left the Xuan Rui, Crown Prince Alwaleed had already decided in his heart that this year's Dubai Horse Racing will increase the prize money to 30 million US dollars. The title of the world's number one horse racing sport will belong to the wealthy no matter what.
of the Arab people.
The man from Brunei and Bhutan who left at the same time as Alwaleed, Zhuang Rui's attitude made him understand that money could not be used to get this bloody horse that made waves in the horse racing world.
"Prince William, you..."
Seeing that William still refused to leave, Zhuang Rui smiled and joked with him, "If you, Your Highness William, can offer one billion pounds, I will definitely sell Zhui Feng to you..."
Prince William shrugged and said: "Mr. Zhuang, I don't have that much money, and I don't want to buy Chai Feng when I come here this time. I just want to see this horse again and take a photo with it."
That's all, of course, it would be better if you can let me ride for a lap..."
After Zhui Feng won the last race, William knew that this horse was not within his reach.
Although the British royal family is one of the richest families in the world, William is also only one of the heirs to the throne. The funds he can use are very limited. The previous 100 million pounds can make him deeply in debt.
Just because of his horse-loving nature, William still wants to have more contact with Zhuang Rui. He can't afford Zhui Feng, but he can learn more about the origins of some sweat horses through Zhuang Rui. It does not mean that all sweat horses are.
Can have the status of chasing the wind.
"on board?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment after hearing this, "Isn't this appropriate? I guess Zhui Feng doesn't like high platform diving, a very difficult sport..."
