People in bathing suits were having fun in the water. Most are foreigners.
A sail-shaped building was visible at the end of the shore.
This hotel is the symbol of Dubai. The design inspired by the shape of a sail floating on the sea stood out.
They actually built a hotel on the sea. They made an artificial island out of stone and built a hotel on it.
Thousands of iron cores were put into the floor of the building to withstand typhoons.
The hotel we will be staying at overlooks the indoor ski resort.
“Unpack your bags and rest for a while. I will come see you again in the evening.”
Hazard dropped us off at the hotel and returned to the palace.
Lee Jang-woo looked at the hotel and said.
“There is a ski resort here!”

Opened in 2005, it is the first indoor ski resort in the Arab world.
“Shall we unpack and go?”
Lee Jang-woo nodded his head.
While I was unpacking at the hotel, I contacted Jong-moon Cha, CEO of Jungwon Construction.
“Well arrived in Dubai.”
“I was still waiting for the call.”
“We are unpacking our luggage at the hotel. Shall we see you downtown?”
“There is a cafe that I know well. See you there.”
I made an appointment with Cha Jong-moon and headed to the indoor ski resort with Lee Jang-woo.
It’s an indoor ski resort you’ve only heard of. I was curious about the inside.
I heard that it is the combined area of three soccer fields.
A poster in front of the ski resort caught my eye.
‘Ski in the morning and tan in the afternoon.’
As the poster says, you can enjoy skiing and swimming at the same time in Dubai.
It was well shown that Dubai is the best tourist destination in the Arab world.
“It’s really cold inside.”
Lee Jang-woo said with a clear face.
6,000 tons of artificial snow filled the indoor ski resort.
The inside of the ski resort is maintained at minus 4 degrees Celsius.
In contrast to the outside, which is 38 degrees Celsius.
“I will not be able to ski due to time constraints.”
“All right. Representative Kim.”
“Even if you can’t ski, there are things you must see.”
“what is that?”
“Come this way.”
I led him to the corner of the ski resort.
Lee Jang-woo opened his eyes wide and said.
“Oh, there are really penguins!”
The emperor penguin in Antarctica was right in front of me. This is a fact that I confirmed before coming to Dubai.
It was amazing to see it with my own eyes.
People were taking pictures with penguins.
“Would you like to take a picture too?”
“Thank you, but I will decline. I have bad memories with penguins.”
He frowned and waved his hand.

Walked to downtown Dubai. There were many buildings taller than the 63 Building.
Among the forests of buildings, there was a building with a traditional style. This is the place I promised with Cha Jong-moon.
The interior of the building is also well preserved in the traditional Arab style. Rugs and uniquely designed chairs created an exotic atmosphere.
“This is it.”
CEO Cha Jong-moon raised his hand.
There was a man next to him.
It wasn’t the man I saw at Joongwon Construction.
He looked similar in age to Cha Jong-moon.
Unlike Cha Jong-moon, who has short hair, his voluminous hair style looked just like an artist.
Thick horn-rimmed glasses went well with her angular face.
The man reached out to me.
“It’s called Shin Sang-won.”
“This is Kim Deok-myung.”
“Shin Sang-won is an architect working with Joongwon Construction. He is also an old friend of mine.”
I knew the name Shin Sang-won. He is a famous architect who won the Pritzker Prize, which is called the Nobel Prize for architecture.
This shows how much effort Cha Jong-moon puts into this project.
Even Lee Jang-woo said hello and sat down.
A man in traditional Arabic costume came with a glass.
Cha Jong-moon said to me.
“Arabic traditional coffee.”
Coffee brewed with hot sand. It is exactly the way nomads used to drink coffee in the desert 500 years ago.
The strong coffee aroma cleared my mind.
The story was brought up on a light topic.
“Does the CEO have a reason to cut his hair short?”
“Is short hair awkward?”
“No, it suits you.”
“I have had my hair cut short since I was eating sandy rice here in the Arabs when I was young.”
“Did anything special happen?”
“Because of the hot Arab sun and sand.”
Arabs wear a scarf over their heads, both men and women. To protect the head from the scorching sun and desert sand.
Cha Jong-moon chose to keep his hair short instead of a scarf.
“Did you say you were meeting Mohammad this evening?”
“Yes, we will meet at the royal palace in the evening.”
“Short experience, but can I give you some tips?”
When I was satisfied, CEO Cha Jong-moon continued to speak with a thin smile.
“As you know, Dubai is a monarchy. It is where the king reigns. The monarchs enjoy absolute power, but they are also devoted to their people. When foreigners do business here, they also borrow their own names to help them live their economic life.”
I also had that kind of common sense. In some cases, the king directly resolved the inconveniences of the people.
“The problem comes when you work directly with royalty.”
“What do you mean?”
“It means that he is a sincere wage, but he is a picky type. The buildings built in Dubai are nothing out of the ordinary. This is because all buildings were built according to the decisions of the royal family. They long for the best in the world. I think it’s going to live up to the people’s expectations.”
As CEO Cha Jong-moon said, there were no ordinary buildings in Dubai.
From hotels floating on the sea to the tallest buildings in the world, everything is extraordinary.
“Even when dealing with royals, you should not approach them normally.”
Cha Jong-moon’s eyes lit up.
Lee Jang-woo and Shin Sang-won also pricked up their ears.
“Under any circumstance, you should not use candy-like remarks.”
“What if the situation is bad?”
“Yes, good or bad, you have to say it as it is. It’s an act of undermining trust to make a bad situation a good one.”
“It’s saying that coaxing rumors don’t work.”
“That’s right, only trust is important. You don’t have to be considerate when talking about money. For them, money is like sand in the desert. I don’t care what the price is. The most important thing is trust.”
CEO Cha Jong-moon said with a rather serious face.
It seemed like advice from years of experience.

Rolls Royce arrived at the promised time.
CEO Cha Jong-moon and architect Shin Sang-won also got into the car.
The road to the royal palace was truly one thousand miles.
It was like a miracle in the Red Sea. Cars on the road automatically cleared the way.
A similar scene was produced when we arrived from the airport.
I asked Hazard, who was holding the steering wheel, out of curiosity.
“Do cars take care of you?”
“Because of the license plate.”
“A license plate?”
“It’s a royal license plate.”
Come to think of it, Rolls Royce’s license plate numbers were unique.

Number 2 was everything.
“Single digit means royalty. The two digits represent the nobility. The three seats are reserved for ordinary people like me.”
“Then how many digits are given to a foreigner like me?”
“You will be given a five-digit number plate.”
Hazard said with a smile.
After talking for a while, we arrived at the Royal Palace in Dubai.
It is a royal palace with a splendid yet simple architectural style.
Through the soldiers guarding the main gate, they entered the palace.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad greeted us with a friendly face.
“welcome.”
The atmosphere is completely different from what we saw in Antarctica. Like Hazard, he was wearing a white, ankle-length traditional dress, but he felt the dignity of royalty.
“Come inside.”
I entered the palace with Mohammad. There was a long red pedestal.
In Arabic, red represents unity and authority.
The interior of the royal palace was decorated with gold, boasting splendor.
“We talk while we eat.”
At Mohammad’s words, the servants were busy moving.
“Prepared with traditional Dubai food.”
The table was full of food. All I knew was chickpeas, cheese, and a traditional Arabic bread called kubez.

Mohammad didn’t talk about work at dinner.
It has recently become a hot topic in Dubai, and light conversations such as a fountain show have come and gone.
After the meal, the story of the hydroponic plant came out.
I took out the blueprint I had prepared.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad looked at the blueprint with satisfaction.
“We have already reviewed the patent-related content. Looking at the blueprint, I can clearly understand. Now we have to talk about the exterior architecture of the cultivation facility.”
The outside of the facility was decided to meet in person.
“Before talking about external facilities, it would be best to talk about money first, right?”
“Is it a money problem?”
“Because I was only talking about the cost of a hydroponic plant. I didn’t tell you the price of the external structure of the cultivation facility.”
“Did you mean $50 million only for the hydroponic plant itself?”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad Salah nodded lightly.
50 million dollars is 60 billion won.
I figured that would be the full cost of course.
That’s what he said on the show.
Something unexpected happened.
lucky rain
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad continued speaking without changing his expression.
“We’re also thinking about $50 million to build the outside of our growing facility.”
CEO Cha Jong-moon chuckled as to what was caught in his neck.
I was surprised by the amount beyond my imagination.
“Isn’t it because the amount is small?”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad looked into my eyes and asked.
“Until now, I was thinking about the cost of planting facilities and construction as well.”
“As expected, Mr. Deokmyeong is honest. I always liked that. The fact that I thought about the cost of construction separately means that I think of architecture as one of the important factors.”
The Hadong cultivation facility was designed to be as simple as possible. Appearance isn’t that important.
We also coordinated our opinions with CEO Cha Jong-moon. The planting facility to be built in Dubai also had a design similar to that of Hadong.
Contrary to what we thought, Mohammad Salah was very concerned about his appearance.
“How big are you thinking about growing?”
“I think 100 tons per day would be enough.”
The facility to be built in Hadong can produce about 30 tons of salad per day. At 100 tons, it is slightly more than three times the size of Hadong.
At 100 tonnes, 30% of Dubai’s population can eat fresh salad every day.

Not a small number.
“Dubai relies on imports for 90% of its agricultural products. It also imports nearly $4 billion annually. If you can produce agricultural products on your own at a cost of 100 million dollars, it will be of great help to Dubai. The people of Dubai will react positively to this.”
It seemed to be the decisive reason for Mohammad’s interest in cutting-edge agriculture.
If the king of Dubai poured his money into trade and tourism, the prince was concerned about the country’s agriculture.
“I want to get architectural design in a short time, is it possible?”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad Salah asked cautiously.
Before eating with him, I introduced Cha Jong-moon and Shin Sang-won. I knew they were going to be in charge of the construction of the growing plant.
In particular, I paid attention to the fact that Shin Sang-won is a famous architect.
“It seems difficult to answer that question right now.”
As usual, it’s something I’ll do when I go back to Korea.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad Salah nodded.
“I guess I was in a bit of a hurry. Because it’s not a matter for me to decide on my own… … .”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad, who was always confident, was also speechless at this point.
The Prince of Dubai was seen shaking for the first time.
“What do you mean you don’t decide on your own?”
“You must have your father’s permission.”
“Father?”
“All buildings under the leadership of the royal family must be approved by the father. He takes the exterior of the building very seriously.”
Ismail Salada, the father of Mohammad Salah.
He is the King of Dubai, and the Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai.
What makes Dubai’s major buildings unusual is a reflection of his picky taste.
It contained the ruler’s desire to make Dubai the world’s top tourist destination.
“My father likes innovative designs. It’s different from me, who likes simple and concise designs.”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad had a bitter expression on his face as he talked about his father.
The king of Dubai is the only one he can’t overcome.
“Why don’t you give me an answer by tomorrow?”
“good. If you need anything please tell me. I will do my best to help.”
I took out the present I had prepared before I left the palace.
“This is a gift from Korea.”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad opened the lid of the luxuriously packaged box.
There were dried persimmons in it.
“what is this?”
“It’s called dried persimmon. It is a traditional food made from persimmons. I made it myself.”
Arabs, including Dubai, do not have persimmon trees.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad also looked at the dried persimmons with curious eyes.
“Is it similar to a date palm?”
The date palm is a unique fruit found only in the Arab world.
The trees that grow next to the oasis are all date palm trees.
The date palm tree is uniquely grown only in the desert, and Arabs eat it dried like dried persimmons.
