When it comes to the Middle East, there are countless keywords in everyone's mind, but "oil" is absolutely indispensable. Quick access to this site " "Advertisement

The United Arab Emirates is a typical Middle Eastern country. Since the discovery of oil dependence in 1966, the country has become one of the richest countries in the world. This country, which has become a flower in the desert, is bordered by the Persian Gulf in the north, which is more than 700 kilometers long. The coastline also gives it the capital to develop tourism. Abu Dhabi and Dubai are the two most famous tourist cities.

Dubai is the second largest city in the United Arab Emirates and is known as the "Sunshine City". It is an important port and one of the most important trade centers in the Gulf and even the entire Middle East. It is the world's first seven-star hotel and the world's largest shopping mall. The center, the world's largest indoor ski resort, the hotel in the shape of a flying saucer under the sea... This makes Dubai almost synonymous with luxury. Last year, Dubai's tourism industry, which attracted 600 tourists, surpassed oil revenue for the first time, accounting for more than 10% of GDP, and it has become the world's most famous shopping and tourism destination.

Dubai World Central International Airport is the largest and most advanced airport in the world, as large as London Heathrow International Airport in the United Kingdom and Chicago O'Hare International Airport in the United States combined. Evan Bell has been to several of the largest airports in the world, but when he arrived at Dubai, an airport with an amazing throughput, he still had to sigh: the power of oil is so great!

People who come to Dubai, whether they are poor or rich, whether they come here on a special trip or pass by for a flight, will be amazed by the luxurious service treated like an oil tycoon. The simple and elegant airport terminal is lined up from east to west. The world's most complete duty-free shops are dazzling, thirty-two spacious and comfortable sofas are laid out in the rest area, and the dining area like a state banquet hall provides food from all over the world... The white background and golden light make the whole The vision presents a magnificent effect, the continuous flow of people, and the smiling ground staff all make the airport present the most perfect appearance.

Evan Bell sorted out the peaked cap on his head. The huge brim covered most of his face, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses that took up half of his face completely restrained his momentum. He didn't dress like this for airport fashion, but mainly to avoid the chaos on the plane from happening again, as a last resort. Quick access to this site " "Advertisement

This time, Evan Bell came to Dubai to participate in the architectural design bidding for the Burj Khalifa project currently temporarily named. Teddy Bell, Eden Hudson and others did not come together. Teddy Bell must stay in Wyoming, because "Brokeback Mountain" has entered the final stage of preparation, it is estimated that it will be able to start soon; and Eden-Hudson has been very busy recently, and the flagship store of the "Eleven" brand has been selected for two. A storefront is under contract negotiation. Once confirmed, the opening of the flagship store is just around the corner. In addition, in order to avoid the eyes and ears of the media, do not make a lot of noise, so Evan Bell came alone.

Almost no one expected Evan Bell to leave Wyoming at this time, because all the media knew that Evan Bell was preparing for the shooting of "Brokeback Mountain", which was a movie no one wanted to pay attention to, so the media The grasp of Evan Bell's movements lacks timeliness. When Evan Bell got on the plane, no one found out that Evan Bell had left the United States.

On the plane to Dubai, Evan Bell's appearance caused quite a stir, not only the passengers, but even the flight attendants kept throwing their eyes at Evan Bell, if their work did not allow them, they would Already swarmed up. However, in the end, the flight attendants still looked for an opportunity and took a group photo with Evan Bell. It was the captain who made the request. Because the captain said his wife loved Evan Bell very much.

Now Evan Bell is indeed a top star, and every appearance is bound to cause a burst of chaos. So, after getting off the plane, Evan Bell went to the bathroom to do some disguise, otherwise he would be recognized in the world's largest airport, and it would not be enough to watch, but some entanglement was definitely indispensable.

In the vast crowd, the low-key Evan Bell did not attract much attention and left the airport smoothly.

Since Evan Bell had not determined the time to come to Dubai before, he did not notify the municipal government that organized the bid for the Burj Khalifa this time. Although the municipal government had previously stated that they would send a special car to the airport to pick up, but because The time could not be determined before, so there has been no response to the Dubai Municipal Government.

Evan Bell got into the taxi directly. The driver was a middle-aged uncle with a beard. He seemed very enthusiastic, "Good afternoon, where are you going?"

"Arab Hotel." Evan Bell replied, taking off the backpack on his shoulders, and then taking off the peaked cap on his head. It's still August, and the weather is still unbearably hot. There is already a scar on his forehead. Thin layers of sweat.

The driver immediately smiled and said, "Do you need me to turn up the air conditioner?" The English with a strong Arabic accent could not conceal the enthusiasm and cheerfulness in his voice. As a taxi driver, how can you not understand what Burj Al Arab means in Dubai? Although he was a little confused, the teenager in front of him was wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, and he was taking a taxi. He really didn't look like a rich man, but who knew? There are many millionaires who like to pretend to be commoners.

Burj Al Arab Hotel, also known as Burj Al Arab, the world's first seven-star hotel, the world's tallest hotel, is even taller than the Eiffel Tower in Paris. This series of names alone is enough to evoke the memory of countless people. . Built on a man-made island, the hotel's sophistication and shape make it appear as if it were one with the sky.

This 56-story sailboat-shaped tower building has only 202 sets of duplex guest rooms. Ranging from 8,400 square feet (780 square meters), the lowest is the Presidential Suite, which costs $900, and the highest is the Royal Suite, which costs $18,000. In fact, this is the lowest price in the off-season, and it is often impossible to book a room at this price. Even so, the source of customers is still enthusiastic, "not afraid of high prices, only afraid of poor goods", this famous saying in business circles has been confirmed again in Dubai.

This world's top hotel not only has luxurious and unusual rooms, but also amazing supporting facilities. It specializes in providing vehicles for hotel passengers to and from the airport, including eight BMWs and two Rolls Royce, and , the helicopter! Therefore, for travelers to the Burj Al Arab Hotel, taking a taxi is not the best choice, and it is no wonder that the driver has doubts just now.

In fact, when Evan Bell came to Dubai this time, there happened to be no branch of the Four Seasons Hotel, so he originally booked a room at the Underwater Hotel, and wanted to experience what it was like to live under the sea. But this time, the Dubai Municipal Government put the bidding in the Burj Al Arab Hotel, and took the initiative to arrange accommodation for Evan Bell in the hotel for free - obviously this is the privilege of Evan Bell, and the Dubai Municipal Government originally wanted to use it. Evan Bell advertises, of course, to provide the best service - so Evan Bell has no reason to refuse, so he agreed. Living in the world's top seven-star hotel is also a kind of enjoyment.

The driver glanced at Evan Bell in the rearview mirror. Although he had guesses in his heart, he still had a kind smile on his face, "Is this time in Dubai for tourism?"

Evan Bell wiped his sweat, nodded and smiled and said, "Yeah, what are some good attractions to recommend?" Although he was on business, he was very busy throughout July, so he should relax. So, after the bidding is over, he might stay here for an extra day or two.

"You can enjoy shopping here, you can also go diving under the sea, of course, the palm artificial island, Jumeirah Mosque, the Earth Islands known as the eighth wonder of the world, you won't want to miss it..." The driver seemed to Is a competent tour guide, familiar with the classics of Dubai, Evan Bell is also like a competent tourist, constantly asking some questions, the two of them have a good conversation. "And the hotel you're staying in this time is an attraction not to be missed."

Listening to these descriptions, Evan Bell can only sigh, "Dubai is really a rich city." The so-called inch of land here is more reflected in the fact that if you want to spend money, there are countless places here. Let people splurge and enjoy the supreme service experience. No wonder, the tourism here is getting more and more developed Although I have seen a lot of photos in various places, when the Burj Al Arab Hotel came into sight, Evan Bell, a student of architectural design , or can not help but sigh the greatness of human creativity. It adopts the architectural form of double-layer membrane structure, which is light and elegant in shape and has a strong modern style. It is integrated with the background sky and sea horizon. The scene where the building and nature seamlessly form a picture scroll can definitely be said to be human architecture. A breakthrough in design.

The designer of this building, Tom Wright, is also famous. Although he is a member of the Royal Institute of British Architects, before this Burj Al Arab hotel, he was good at designing schools and offices. The average age of the original design team was only thirty-two years old, and most importantly, they did not have any relevant high-rise building experience. It can be seen that in the field of architectural design, age and experience are not a problem. As long as they have a solid foundation and rely on endless creativity, every architect may be a blockbuster.

What kind of situation will the Burj Dubai bid to be held tomorrow, Evan Bell couldn't help but be eager to try it, full of expectations. Not only because he wants to participate in the bidding, but also because he can meet top designers from all over the world here, and see all kinds of wonderful designs. This event is really exciting.
