He personally created the miracle of Dubai's rise, single-handedly created 23 of the world's largest, under his wise leadership, Dubai's welfare benefits lead the world, the people are all rich, per capita GDP hanging a number of developed countries in Europe and the United States.
He is also known as the richest handsome man in the Middle East, married 6 wives, and his personal assets exceed 100 billion. There are countless sports cars, yachts, and planes under their names, and they throw tens of millions of pocket money to their children.
However, although he ruled the country well, behind his back was a tyrant, who not only imprisoned his disobedient daughter, but also forced his wife to flee with money, relying on the protection of his mother's family to escape.
Is he a savior or a great demon? What unknown darkness is hidden behind his extravagant life?
Today, I will talk to you about the "lord of ZTE", the current sheikh of Dubai - Mohammed Al Maktoum
Muhammad was born into the Royal Family of Dubai on 15 July 1949, and at the time of his birth, Dubai, despite its oil and gas resources, was far less prosperous than it is now.
His father, Rashid, was a very enterprising man, knowing that oil would always be exploited one day, and the development of the country could not be limited to this. So under his impetus, Dubai established the world's largest artificial port "Dubai Port", and since then Dubai has become an important distribution center for maritime trade between the three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa.
In 2006, the old king died and Mohammed succeeded to the throne, and he went one step further from his father to vigorously develop Dubai's tourism and financial industries, completely transforming Dubai from a small fishing port into a modern city today.
At the time, he famously said: Whoever remembers who landed on the moon for the second time is second, no one remembers, so we have to lead.
It is because of this sentence that he has created 23 world-largest in Dubai. Such as the world's largest artificial island Palm Island, the world's tallest building Burj Khalifa, the world's most luxurious seven-star hotel Burj Al Arab, the world's largest shopping mall Dubai Mall and so on.
It is precisely because there are so many world bests that Dubai attracts countless tourists to this "pilgrimage" every year, so that the country and the people can make a lot of money.
And with the increase in popularity, elites from all walks of life have also gathered here to continue to inject new blood into Dubai. So here we can see an interesting scene, that is, the locals are not working, and the elites from Europe and the United States have become migrant workers.
Because of this, the people of Dubai love their king and call him the savior sent by the Allah.
Since the people are so rich, the savior is naturally richer, and his life may be much more than our imagination.
What is the most expensive car in the world in your imagination? Ferrari? Rolls royce? However, the car we see now, the license plate alone is 100 million!
But the car is just the tip of the iceberg of Muhammad's many collections.
According to statistics, his garage has thousands of luxury cars, from Mercedes-Benz BMW to Maybach Rolls-Royce, as long as it is the luxury car brand you can think of, you can find it here, and each one is a top version, even a limited edition. In order to have a place to park, he also spent 200 million yuan to build an 8-story parking building.
However, luxury cars can only be regarded as a trivial hobby of Muhammad, and what he really likes is equestrianism. According to him, his family did not give much pocket money when he was studying abroad, and he could even skip lunch for a few days in order to go to see a horse race, which shows his love for equestrianism.
So after he got rich, he invested a lot of wealth in it. In order to be able to ride a horse at any time, he directly spent 3 billion yuan in the palace to build the world's most luxurious horse farm, the Maidan Racecourse, which raised hundreds of famous horses, the most expensive one worth more than 30 million.
And he also blocked the Dubai Horse Racing World Cup, the most expensive race in the world, with a prize money of up to $20 million on a single matchday, which is a complete throw away.
With such a father, then the life of dubai princes and princesses will naturally not be worse, ordinary people's pocket money for children may be tens of hundreds, but Muhammad's pocket money for children must be added to the back of a "ten thousand" word.
Take the current Dubai Crown Prince Hamandan, who owned his own private jet as a teenager and has more than 200 Rolls-Royces in his garage. Once, Jackie Chan came to Dubai to shoot a drama and needed to use a luxury car, Hamantan immediately took out more than 70 luxury cars, and said to Jackie Chan: You drive casually, and you don't have to lose money if you crash!
However, although the Dubai royal family looks bright on the surface, there are often some negative news, such as some time ago, Muhammad's second wife Haya fled to the United Kingdom with a huge amount of 270 million yuan and a pair of children.
Why did the Princess of Dubai flee overnight with 270 million donations? What darkness is hidden behind the palatial royal family? Next, let's walk into the "Great Devil" who imprisoned his wife and abused his daughter, Muhammad.
In 2019, Mohammed's second wife, Princess Haya, suddenly fled into a private home in the United Kingdom with a huge amount of money of 270 million yuan and a pair of children, and filed a lawsuit to divorce her husband. Suddenly, there was a lot of talk around the world, speculating about why she was running away.
Soon, Haya told everyone the truth, it turned out that in Arab countries, the status of women is relatively low, many large families will marry each other, and Muhammad plans to marry himself and Haya's daughter to Saudi Crown Prince Salman Jr.
Little Salman's reputation in the world is not very good, Muhammad sent his daughter over is undoubtedly to push the child into the fire pit, Hayadan realized that in the eyes of her husband, the daughter is nothing more than a political tool, for the sake of her own and her daughter's happiness, she escaped from Dubai overnight.
Afterwards, Mohammed repeatedly applied for Haya's extradition back to Dubai, but was rejected by the British and Haya's mother,Diego for various reasons.
Some people may wonder why Haya is determined not to go back. In fact, this is because Muhammad's methods are indeed a bit fierce. Take his eldest wife, Princess Hurd, who bore Muhammad 12 children, but now she has evaporated and disappeared, and it is speculated that she was probably put under house arrest by Muhammad.
Muhammad and his two daughters had planned to escape, and when they were discovered, they did not want him to be locked up, which was also uncertain of life and death. So if Haya returns to Dubai, the belief that awaits her will not be a good ending.
Looking back on Muhammad's life, it is undeniable that he is indeed the lord of Dubai and the good king of the people of Dubai. But perhaps influenced by conventional wisdom, he was not a good father and a good husband.
So in your opinion, is Muhammad a savior or a great demon?
