Der Schulrüpel gibt sich distanziert, ist aber in Wirklichkeit sozial unbeholfen - Kapitel 171
The five bosses exchanged glances, and then gritted their teeth, preparing to make an offer.
“Since you’re so sincere, young man, let’s make a final decision. Seventy billion, what do you think?” the older of the five said earnestly.
This man, named Charles, has invested in countless hotels in Dubai. In fact, he monopolizes 80% of the hotel business in Dubai!
Therefore, many people call him the King of Hotels.
"no!"
Ma Yunteng glanced at the group of people and said seriously.
As soon as the words were spoken, the five bosses stood up at the same time to leave.
70 billion is the lowest price they have negotiated. If they sell the hotel for less than that price, they will lose money.
However, the moment they took their first step, they heard a sound that shocked them beyond belief.
"One hundred billion! You can't take a single penny less!"
Ma Yunteng tossed aside the Brazilian cigar in front of him, took out a Double Happiness cigarette from his pocket, and looked at them strangely.
What!
Ma Yunteng's words were like a bomb, leaving the five people dizzy and disoriented.
They're unwilling to buy it for 70 billion, but will only buy it for 100 billion?
Is this how you buy things?
Are you out of your mind?!
"However, I have conditions!"
Just as the five were in utter astonishment, Ma Yunteng's voice rang out again.

As soon as he finished speaking, the five bosses looked at him strangely. They wanted 70 billion, and Ma Yunteng wanted to give 100 billion, but there was one condition.
The five bosses secretly made up their minds that they would be willing to give their wives to Ma Yunteng!
At first glance, 30 billion may not seem like much, but they have owned the Burj Al Arab for ten years, and even with all the profits they have made so far, it may not be 30 billion!
What's more, this is 30 billion that just appeared out of nowhere? It's practically a gift to them for free!
“Mr. Ma, please feel free to speak your terms,” Charles, the King of Hotels, asked earnestly.
"Well, actually I don't have any unreasonable demands!" Ma Yunteng laughed and continued, "I am Chinese, and Chinese people have a strong sense of patriotism. So I hope that in the future, if any Chinese people come to Dubai for tourism, all the hotels under your name can provide completely free accommodation for Chinese people!"
"this……"
Upon hearing this, the bosses all looked troubled.
A significant number of Chinese tourists visit Dubai, generating substantial profits for the hotels each year. If the hotels were to offer completely free admission to Chinese tourists, their profitability would inevitably be impacted.
“If that’s the case… customers from China might just stay in Dubai and never leave,” one of the shop owners said awkwardly, since Ma Yunteng had said it was completely free.
"Well, how about this then!"
After a moment's thought, Ma Yunteng realized that something was indeed amiss.
After all, a small number of Chinese people still like to take advantage of others. If they stay at someone else's hotel and refuse to leave, it will damage the reputation of the Chinese nation!
He did this so that Chinese tourists could have face while traveling in Dubai. The other party's words reminded Ma Yunteng.
"How about this!"
"Whenever any Chinese person stays at a hotel in Dubai, they will have seven days of completely free time. For stays exceeding seven days, they will receive a 90% discount, and for every additional seven days, the discount will increase by another 90%. Moreover, I will give you an extra 5 billion every year. Is that acceptable?" Ma Yunteng said calmly, his gaze sweeping over the five people's faces.
"no problem!"
The five bosses said in unison.
Chinese tourists spend roughly one billion yuan a year on hotel accommodations in Dubai.
If Jack Ma were to give them 5 billion yuan every year, they could practically provide free services to Chinese tourists!
"Young Master Ma is not only young and wealthy, but also possesses a strong sense of patriotism. It is truly an honor for the Chinese nation to have such an outstanding tycoon as you!" Charles, the King of Hotels, flattered.
"No, you can't say that!"
Ma Yunteng smiled and said, "Every Chinese person is proud to be a Chinese citizen! There are many people in China who are more patriotic and outstanding than me. I am just a drop in the ocean, well, just a drop in the ocean!"
"Haha! Mr. Ma's level of understanding is truly admirable!" Hotel King Charles said with a cupped hand, and the other four bosses also gave Ma Yunteng a thumbs up.
"Well, since everyone agrees, shall we sign the contract?" Ma Yunteng slammed the black card in his hand onto the table.
“Excellent! However, this matter is of great importance. There are more than a dozen contracts just for the ownership and management of the Burj Al Arab hotel. How about we find an auspicious day to prepare all the contracts and have our secretarial teams sign them personally?” Charles said cautiously.
"Alright, my secretariat will arrive in Dubai tomorrow. You all get ready. I'm short on time and don't want to waste any more time on this!" Ma Yunteng said.
"Okay! Mr. Ma, please have your meal!" As soon as Charles finished speaking, several lines walked out of the restaurant and instantly filled the table with a full load of dishes, at least five hundred kinds.
After the meal, Charles suggested that Ma Yunteng go with them to gamble on camels.
However, Ma Yunteng had no interest in gambling at all, so he returned to his room, since there was an auction he had to win the next day.
