Hearing that Mahathir from the Abu Dhabi Consortium was coming to visit, Iprasin couldn't help but panic and almost developed a heart attack.
But he could only accept it and had no ability to resist. Who asked someone to be an investor? Moreover, the test results he submitted this time were not good, and he was completely crushed by "other people's children".
A week later, Mahathir came to Dibba as scheduled and checked into the Montgomery Hotel again.
Abu Dhabi is not far from Dibba, just a stretch of a leg. What's more, for a top tycoon like Mahathir, transportation has never been an obstacle. If he wants to go, he can reach any point on the earth within 24 hours.
Therefore, the reason why he delayed coming to Dibba was simply to wait for the dust to settle so that he could fully understand the development of the situation.
As mentioned earlier, the gains and losses of goodwill are intangible and must be reflected laterally through other data.
Although since the failure of the public opinion war on "cheap tourism" with Lan Fang, Mahathir has realized that Iprasing will definitely suffer losses, and Gu Kun will definitely be able to handle it. But how big the impact will be, he can only let himself
The people conducted overt and covert visits and observed for a period of time.
Now it seems that the result is clear.
"Your Highness Mahathir... I'm sorry, I have let you down." Iprasin said after the reunion. He thought about many possibilities, but in the end he still did not dare to make any more excuses when the matter came to pass.
He was afraid that if he continued to quibble, Mahathir would be even more disgusted.
When smart people talk to each other, there is actually no need to do a lot of fancy things.
However, this humility cannot be exchanged for Mahathir’s forgiveness and forgiveness:
"Look what good things you have done without telling me! On the one hand, you are asking our Abu Dhabi consortium to invest billions of dollars in infrastructure, but on the other hand, you are using your own money to invest in infrastructure projects that cost hundreds of millions."
The so-called Internet entrepreneurship project in US dollars!
What gives you the confidence to make you feel that as an entrepreneur with my investment, you are still qualified to play the role of an investor and invest externally without knowing me! Your attitude and concealment have already
This is unforgivable, I don’t even need to see the investment results!”
This is very reasonable to say.
This does not mean that investors are investors and entrepreneurs are entrepreneurs. They cannot have dual identities at the same time.
But according to the rules of this industry, when you have received more than one billion U.S. dollars in investment from others, and there are still billions of U.S. dollars expected to be invested in you in the future. If you want to make any move, you should at least
Talk to investors.
Iprasin's deception and killing first and showing off later are indeed a bit unethical.
To put it bluntly, even if his plan to invest in Biancheng Travel Network is successful and the value increases, he is still sorry for Mahathir - what do you mean? You took my money and invested it in your own low-yield projects.
Then you invest your own money in those high-risk, high-yield projects? The key is that after you lose money, it will still lead to capital chain problems in other projects.
Doesn’t that mean that if Ibrahim makes the profit, he will swallow it, and if the investment fails, Mahathir will bear part of the risk?
How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Iprasin was so bitter after being accused that he asked for forgiveness: "I definitely didn't make this investment with the intention of 'eating alone if it succeeds.'
The proceeds are given to you.
The money is actually not important - of course, even now, if you are interested, you can still take away the devalued shares of Biancheng Travel.com as my apology. The reason why I kept it secret from you is just
I'm afraid you won't like it and will stop my plan."
Mahathir was very angry when he heard this: "Who cares about your piece of rubbish? I heard it is only worth a few million dollars, right? That piece of junk is not as good as buying me a toy! Besides, you think 'what if'
I want to stop you, but I’m wrong to stop you? I’m not stopping you now, look at the results of your efforts!”
Mahathir became angrier as he spoke, and slapped a stack of documents on the table as he spoke.
The contents there are, of course, some market feedback data that he recently asked his confidants to investigate, mainly focusing on Diba's tourism market income data that has been sustained for more than half a month, as well as some other research results.
He can't wait for the relevant official statistics and financial statements in June to come out, and is also afraid that Iprasin will make financial fraud by then.
So he only trusted his own eyes and ears, and the investigation conclusions of the third-party market research agency he commissioned.
Mahathir angrily pointed at the data on a certain page of the report in front of him: "Look at the good things you have done! Let's not go into detail, let's just say that the occupancy rate of the Montgomery Hotel under our feet in late June was lower than that in the first half of June.
It increased by 17 percentage points. And considering that summer is approaching, compared with the data for the same period in previous years, the business data for each ten-day period in June should have increased month-on-month in previous years!
There are many such examples. In addition to the occupancy rate of the Montgomery Hotel, the number of tourists spending in the seven major shopping malls controlled by the Diba royal family in late June, according to the on-site statistics of my researchers, has also dropped significantly, especially
The number of consumers of high-end luxury goods and the sales amount have all declined to a certain extent! The average decline has reached 24 percentage points!
What does this mean? It means you have completely messed up! You want to blackmail Gu Kun, and you also want to pretend that even if you cheat, you can blame the Monaco people and make the world think that the Monaco people are jealous of Gu Kun. But what is the result? You
None of your stupid so-called strategies succeeded, and your goodwill was ruined! Now a considerable number of high-end European and American tourists have seen through the hypocrisy of your so-called Diba tycoon model, and feel that you have no historical background and are just pretending.
The so-called nobility!
Who gave you the confidence to play tricks with the Chinese? Do you have any brains, do you have even a little bit of historical knowledge? They are the most insidious, cunning and well-versed nation in the art of war throughout the ages. Do you think it is the Song Dynasty?
Is this the pig-brained era of Confucianism, where people believe in any diplomatic deception or surrender?"
A barrage of attacks made Iprasin scolded until he was so bloody that he did not dare to resist at all.
The decline in these business data is an ironclad fact.
The high-end luxury cultural and tourism industry depends on reputation and quality. If people think you are faking it to gain quality, and setting up traps to frame your opponents so that you can get ahead of others, then your reputation will be ruined.
It is completely normal to temporarily reduce the number of tourists by 10% or 20% and let others switch to Monaco or Lanzhou under the same conditions.
This fluctuation in goodwill can really affect the decision-making of such a proportion of tourists.
Especially for short- to medium-term vacations where many international conferences and business meetings are held, wouldn’t it be uncomfortable for people to choose a city with a short-term reputation to hold an industry forum?
Seeing that Iprasin did not dare to refute, after Mahathir finished his rant, he gave a straightforward ultimatum: "I know that you have always wanted to change the design of Diba Tower. Taking advantage of the fact that the foundation has only been laid for a few months, the ground
The construction hadn't started yet, so I wanted to increase the budget. As a result, so many things happened.
I hope you can take care of yourself, do as much as you can, and don't go through all those blind struggles. It's already pretty good if I don't withdraw my capital and leave you unfinished. If you continue to mess around, I'll waste all the money I spent in front of you.
Let you be ruined!"
As for the funding for the Palm Jumeirah project, it is of course suspended indefinitely. Don’t even think about it or mention it.
I want to run before I even learn how to walk. The key is that I stumble even when I try to run, and I still want to hit others. Isn’t this embarrassing?
The Diba people's plan to keep up with the construction progress of Lanfang was completely sentenced to death.
The next phase of investment will only take place after the efficacy is seen, which may take at least three years of construction.
