Abandoned the Immortal Cultivator, returned to his hometown to farm and sing

Chapter 996 989. Fourteen Hours of Miracle

The next day, two special planes arrived in Dubai, carrying the opening performance team and the venue construction team and materials.

Then there were three days of rehearsals at a venue arranged at Mansoor’s home.

Because of the appearance of elements such as incense balls and the Tang Dynasty, the performance plan was temporarily modified, and even a batch of costumes were re-produced in China and urgently airlifted over, so time was very tight.

What is even more tense is the venue layout.

The night before the opening, after the usual carnival at the Burj Al Arab.

A long fleet of trucks and buses carrying engineering teams and countless supplies arrived at the Burj Al Arab to set up the venue for the opening performance.

When the last box of goods was unloaded, three engineering teams entered the leisure area in a triangular shape. When the anti-peep curtain was raised, the shadow of the palm tree by the swimming pool just blocked the drone surveillance track - this magic trick of competing with the passenger flow of the Burj Al Arab Hotel must be completed before the performance tomorrow night.

As for why it has only been arranged now.

The Burj Al Arab has guests staying there and is an important tourist attraction, so the leisure area needs to be used and cannot be occupied for long periods of time.

Only on the last day can we gather together and work.

The siege lasted until daytime.

In order to maintain confidentiality, the roof is even covered to block the sun, so you can't see what's going on inside.

During the day in Dubai, the sun is scorching and no one will go to the leisure area to play.

But, I can not go, but you can't.

The guests of the Burj Al Arab are either rich or noble, so the hotel does not dare to offend them and offers compensation to all the guests.

An invitation to attend the "Drunk Guest" opening ceremony "One Night of Fish and Dragon Dance" to be held tonight, and stated that Crown Prince Al Maktoum and nobles from the UAE, Dubai and many other countries will attend.

Although I don’t know what “drunkard” is, and I have no idea what “fish and dragons dancing all night” means.

But everyone knows the name of the Crown Prince, the actual ruler of Dubai and the next generation of sheikh.

What’s more, there are nobles from many countries, it’s quite a grand scene.

After asking the housekeeper, I learned that "Zui Ke" was the shop in the lobby on the first floor that had been renovated for half a year.

This is the only store that can be opened inside the Burj Al Arab Hotel. The Crown Prince attended the opening ceremony. The meaning is very clear: it must be related to the royal family.

All the guests who had time readily agreed and actively prepared their dresses and money to spend a lot of money in the royal shop.

Inside the tent in the recreation area, hotel staff and executives, including General Manager Morio, were all a little confused by the scene before them.

Received notice to set up the venue.

They originally thought it was just a simple arrangement, but they didn't expect it to become so big.

A group of engineers from the East brought with them all kinds of incomprehensible automated machinery and prefabricated components.

The entire recreational area was completely transformed, the swimming pool was paved, and even a floating dock was built on the beach.

And all this was done from two in the morning to four in the afternoon of the next day, just fourteen hours.

For the same project, foreign workers in Dubai have to work for at least one month.

Do Oriental people know magic?

What's even more shocking is.

After the venue layout was completed, it was powered on and lit up.

When the engineer activated the control system, Morio discovered that the so-called "floor tiles" were actually 5,000 micro LED modules. Each of them was embedded with a non-slip crystal layer, and when powered on, it could simulate the velvety feel of a Persian carpet and the glaze of blue and white porcelain.

The ground turned out to be a display screen, spliced ​​into a giant display screen.

It is said that there are hundreds of people performing tonight. What kind of display screen can support hundreds of people performing on it? It's incredible.

In fact, they are just surprised by what they have seen. The 08 Olympic Games were performed on display screens. It has been more than ten years since then, and the technology has advanced by who knows how many generations.

Even this display has naked-eye 3D capabilities.
-
At 6pm, several more buses and vans arrived.

The performing team, auxiliary support team, and filming team have arrived.

We were arranged to stay in the meeting room of the Sailboat Hotel and prepare for the performance.

Xiao Zhao and Chu Jie, as well as several senior executives of the Sail Boat Hotel, were responsible for the coordination.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the curtains of the leisure area were opened, and the guests in the hotel saw the real venue for the first time through the window, and they all opened their mouths wide.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Mansour and his elder brother Amer and his wife arrived at the Burj Al Arab to greet the guests together with General Manager Morio.

Then luxury cars arrived one after another, and VIPs in white robes entered the hotel one after another. The deep red tasseled headscarves of the Abu Dhabi royal family and the black scarves with silver thread trims of the Sharjah nobles were intertwined. It turned out that people from all the Gulf countries had come.

In addition, there are many European faces in suits.

Mansur and Amer introduced Luo Yihang and Liu Piaoliang one by one.

There are too many people to remember, but I know that they are either princes, nobles, chiefs, officials from various departments, artists, executives of multinational corporations, and so on.

The amazing thing is that no one related to the luxury goods industry came.

Amer's wife, the Qatari princess, and Ke Shaotong were responsible for entertaining the female guests.

There were also a greater number of princesses and queens who came with them. After all, women are the main force in perfume shops.

At 9:20, the Consul General of the Chinese Consulate General in Dubai arrived. After seeing Luo Yihang, he congratulated him politely and only exchanged a few words without saying much else.

He just gave me a business card at the end and told me to contact him anytime if I had any questions.

And emphasize that anything is possible.

The Consul General must be someone who knows the inside story.

nine thirty.

A long convoy of luxury cars arrived at the Burj Al Arab Hotel under the protection of several police cars.

Crown Prince Al Maktoum and Mansour's father Abdullah and other senior Dubai nobles arrived.

Crown Prince Al is very handsome and very young. He was born in 82 and is only years old.

She has a good figure and doesn't look greasy at all. Standing next to Luo Yihang, she looks only two or three years older. People would believe her if she said she was in her early thirties.

After introducing each other, the Crown Prince left everyone else and invited Luo Yihang to go to a reception room with him, where the two of them talked behind closed doors.

He studied in the UK and spoke with a London accent, so there was no need for a translator between the two of them.

He is also very talkative and likes to tell British jokes.

For example, at the beginning, after talking about the weather, I told Luo Yihang about a gentleman in a Burberry trench coat who stopped the horse trainer at Cheltenham Racecourse and asked, "Why does my horse 'Thunderbolt' always lose races on rainy days?"

The horse trainer adjusted his straw-stained deerstalker hat and said, "Sir, you should ask the poet who named the horse. Last week, when it was competing with 'Mud Dancer', a three-year-old mare named 'Noah's Ark' rushed out of the rainstorm. Guess who won?"

Luo Yihang didn't react for a moment.

It went through my mind for a while before I burst out laughing.

The joke combines three British memes - an obsession with the weather, a literary naming tradition, and a biblical metaphor.
