Two days later.
Palm Island, Dubai.
Early in the morning.
In a sightseeing car, the world's most famous wedding planner, David Stark, picked up his headset and shouted at his team.
"Have you arranged the fireworks and the scenery?"
"Boss, everything has been arranged."
Stark: "Check again. Also, tell the warehouse not to touch the fireworks easily. They're custom-made. Each plum is worth 100,000 dollars. 999 fireworks are equivalent to 100 million! Be smart, all of you. Have you planned the parking lot and the airport apron? Make sure there are at least 50 private planes and 100 yachts around the island tonight. We still have eight hours before the banquet. Let me tell you, no one is allowed to slack off and work overtime today. If you mess up the plan, I'll fire you and make sure you can't stay in this circle anymore! Money is not a problem. Listen, money is not a problem. You've missed the biggest planning opportunity of the century. There won't be such a luxurious scene for you to plan in the future. Kids, buck up. Let's make the most perfect proposal. "
The assistant next to him clicked his tongue and said, "Boss, I think renting Palm Island for the proposal is already luxurious enough. What else is there to do? I heard that the island alone cost 14 billion dollars to build. Who has the power to rent it for the banquet? I heard that the 2,400 villas on the island have already been sold out. Dignitaries from all over the world have reserved them in advance. Which nouveau riche can convince these rich people to rent out all their houses for the banquet? Just how many connections did he need to have? The cost of the fireworks is really scary. "
Stark was also emotional. "That's right. Even the royal family of Dubai doesn't have that ability. How much influence do you need to convince 2,400 rich people to rent them all? I was also shocked when I received the order. Someone actually wants to rent Palm Island for the banquet? Let me tell you, the banquet guests will be staying at the Sheikh's Palace Hotel! Yes, it's the world's eight-star Palace Hotel. Tomorrow night, it will also be empty and will not accept any check-in orders. It will also be used for guests. The backup hotel is the seven-star Sailing Hotel. Both hotels will vacate all the rooms tomorrow night. "
A subordinate was curious. "I remember that the Palace Hotel has six top suites. Aren't they specially provided for heads of state or members of the royal family? Will there be big shots among the guests this time? "
The other planning staff were very curious. "Tsk tsk, boss, how much do you think this banquet cost? I feel like they don't care about money at all. "
Stark curled his lip. "At least two hundred million dollars. I'm the main planner of the banquet. Let me tell you, just to provide the ingredients for the banquet, the employer has already imported a batch of Romanconti red wine. The average price is 15,000 USD per bottle, and 1,000 bottles of Romanconti red wine that is 210,000 USD per bottle. The annual production of Romanconti red wine isn't much to begin with, and there are only a few thousand bottles left. If we want to get 1,000 bottles, we will have to buy them from the black market at a high price. I estimate that it will cost at least 30 million USD. Also, the top-grade French truffles cost 10 million USD. A gram of caviar worth 20 US dollars has also been approved for 20 million US dollars. We have also bought 1,000 kilograms of top-grade beef from Japan, as well as high-quality foie gras. These top-grade ingredients alone cost nearly 100 million US dollars. In addition to renting the island for a week and contracting two of the world's best hotels, we have 200 million US dollars. "
After that, Stark looked at the beautiful scenery of the entire Palm Island and sighed. "This may be the grandest plan I've ever seen in my life. The eighth wonder of the world is indeed worthy of its reputation."
After that, he picked up the microphone and continued to give orders, demanding that every detail be professional to the extreme without any mistakes.
"Tear down all the balloons. What era is it now? Don't use those cheap decorations. They don't need them here. Also, the ingredients are in place. Are the top chefs from France and China here yet? Quickly send more people to help. All the expensive staples must be in place tonight. Tell the team of famous chefs in China that they can start preparing their Manchu-Han Imperial Feast in advance. Tonight, they must make 20 sets for the guests to taste. They will definitely receive reservations from these rich people because of this banquet. And the lighting staff, what are you doing now? Light up the entire Palm Island. I need seven rainbow-colored ambient lights that can illuminate the entire Palm Island in sequence! Those b * stards in the wiring department, please take your wiring underground. If anyone trips the guests tonight, I'll complain to your company! Sound Master, if there's a broken sound tonight and you can't achieve the panoramic synchronized sound effect, close the door and don't make a fool of yourself. And that purification company, has the seawater in the shallow bay around the island been cleaned? Tonight, we must ensure that the guests can enjoy the pool party to their heart's content. "
At this time, several recreational vehicles arrived one after another. Then, several popular female and male singers from around the world got out of several of the vehicles, as well as a group of angels from Victoria's Secret who came to support the show.
When Stark saw this group of people arriving, he directly held the loudspeaker and shouted, "Can you be more professional? Do you believe that I'll complain to your company? Hurry up and come over to rehearse. Whoever messes with me today and tarnishes my reputation, I'll teach them a lesson! I don't care who you are! "
The supermodels stuck out their tongues one by one and hurriedly trotted over with their assistant makeup artists. Even the A-list male and female Grammy singers did not dare to show off here. They hurriedly cooperated with the staff to start the rehearsal.
When they came, the company's higher-ups directly said that they had to be absolutely humble and low-key here because the list of names for this banquet was very scary. Any one or two of them could easily acquire their entertainment companies.
Above them, two private helicopters were in charge of supervising today's arrival. They were personally supervised by Haber's eldest son, Hersey. Next to him was Haber himself, who had come to monitor the situation.
Hersey was briefing his father on the current progress.
"There are seven hours left before the banquet. Can you make it in time?" Haber asked.
Hersey nodded. "Yes, Father. No problem at all. All the parking lots, yachts, and private airstrips have been arranged."
Holding the binoculars, Haber reminded him, "The venue doesn't matter. We don't care about people gossiping about our banquet, but your Uncle Xu's proposal must be placed first. If you mess it up, I'll break both your legs."
Hersey nodded. "I wouldn't dare, Father. Even if you don't break my legs, Uncle Xu's followers will eat me up."
"When it comes to matters of the organization, your father's words sometimes don't carry much weight. Just be more careful and don't disappoint me. I plan to take this opportunity to train you and introduce you to your Uncle Xu. Do you understand?" Haber looked at his eldest son deeply and said.
Hersey shuddered. "I understand, Father."
Compared to being the king of an emirate, it was better to find a way to enter the organization and become one of the higher-ups. That would be much more powerful and influential than being the king of an emirate!
Haber asked, "What are those luxury brands doing here? How did you get the red wine and all those top-grade ingredients in such a short time? "
Hersey smiled. "Father, would you believe me if I told you that they sent them to me? The red wine was a gift, and the ingredients were sent over by the rich people using their connections. They said it was for the organization. Apart from hiring people, they didn't pay anything. "
Haber nodded. "Are they all members?"
Hersey smiled. "Don't worry, Father. I won't owe them favors for this bit of money. I know what the rich people who aren't members are planning. I won't accept the money, but there will always be members who will pay."
Haber nodded. "Be careful when you do things. Don't let others use you."
"I'll remember, Father." Hersey nodded.
