赌场亿万富翁的争吵

  在红色角落是谢尔登?埃德森,在另一红色角落的是史蒂夫永利。这两个雄性赌场亿万富翁之间的争吵已经持续了近二十年,这是赌场业巨头的一个类似与日本相扑的一个表演。

  著名的相扑战斗,观众的声音可以涨了八度音阶。

  阿德尔森,地球的第12个最富有的人,与史蒂夫永利发生争吵的原因是永利酒店后院的假火山所产生的问题。 史蒂夫永利的金殿酒店,这个冒着热气和有产生泡噪音的酒店与阿德尔森互为邻居。史蒂夫永利位于富豪榜第25位,他回击说,阿德尔森克扣他建设免费停车场的所有投资。

  我想,好邻居之间总是会经常吵架的,但这两个人之间的争吵有趣的是为同一性质的事件持续争吵二十年,其毅力可见非同一般。

  阿德尔森表示,在一个永利酒店旁,他将斥资1.5亿美元建设一个比威尼斯人酒店更复杂“梦幻之城”。估计这两个邻居之间的争吵还会继续。

  史蒂夫永利拥有永利酒店和曼德勒海湾酒店,曼德勒海湾酒店是他在2004年仅仅花费7.9亿美元买下的。

  然而在拉斯维加斯郊区,阿德尔森有十七个赌场。它们都是价值1.3亿美元左右。当然在澳门他也有赌场。澳门现在是世界赌博收入最高的赌博城市。

  何鸿燊40多年来一直垄断澳门的赌博行业。他的赌场筹码,目前大约有80亿美元。永利先生和主席艾德森是第一个拿到能在澳门投资赌场的钥匙的投资者。

  阿德尔森计划在该地区建立13家酒店和两个也围绕新加坡开放的赌场。阿德尔森取得了新加坡的第一个赌博牌照,他正在积极建设滨海湾金沙。

  Squabbling Casino Billionaires Square Up in the Desert

  In the red corner is Sheldon Adelson…… and in the even redder corner is Steve Wynn. The two Alpha male casino billionaires are steaming from the ears- having been squabbling for almost 20 years, these titans of the casino industry seem to be squaring up for a Sumo Basho.

  Forget the famous Sumo fighter Tokoyama- head to Vegas and watch these casino boys screw down each other?s metaphorical kesho-mawashis knots. Their voice have been going up the octaves and the salt is being lobbed over the shoulders.

  Adelson, Planet Earth?s 12th-richest person, has a problem with the eruptions emanating from Wynn?s backyard- the fake volcano that is - from Se?or Wynn?s Mirage hotel, which is belching out hot air and making bubbly noises in close proximity to his neighbour. Wynn, sitting at 250 odd on the rich list- has hit back saying that Adelson is skimping on car parking space and all of his punters are parking for free at his gaff. Adelson has referred to Wynn as an “egomaniac”。 Wynn countered that Adelson has an “inferiority complex”。 New balls please!

  Well neighbours often fight I suppose, but this tiff is far more entertaining that the usual disagreement about drying your saggy pants over the next door neighbour?s fence.

  Adelson built, his $US1.5 billion Venetian complex within a gnat?s whisker of Wynn?s Mirage. And he?s just recently opened the $US1.9 billion Palazzo next to the Wynn Las Vegas.

  Other casino bazillionaires in the desert town who are ripe for some argy bargy include Kirk Kerkorian and brothers Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta. Kerkorian and his company MGM Mirage own more than 50% of the hotel rooms on The Strip. He owns The Mirage, which used to be one of Wynn?s, and the Mandalay Bay which he bought for a mere $US7.9 billion in 2004.

  The Fertittas have a slightly different strategy and own seventeen casinos in the Las Vegas suburbs. They are both worth around $US1.3 billion each.

  And then there?s Macau of course, now the world’s top gambling town in terms of revenue and bets placed.

  Stanley Ho used to be the Silverback in town thanks to a monopoly that he enjoyed for forty odd years. His pile of casino chips currently stands at around $US8 billion. But there are some “gweilos” or “foreign devils” muscling into his patch. Enter Mr Wynn and Mr Adelson who were the first to get the keys to the city. Ho still owns 18 of the region’s 27 casinos, but the new boys are building fast and they are building big. Adelson?s Macau Venetian complex is the biggest casino in the world. It even makes the Las Vegas one look like a Blackpool amusement arcade on a Monday morning in January.

  Adelson plans to build 13 hotels in the area and the two are also sniffing around Singapore which is opening up to gambling. Adelson’s won Singapore?s first gambling license and is building the Marina Bay Sands, but don?t hold your breath- there?ll be more to come on this island state, you can be sure of it.

  They are both taking up Taekwondo and Origami in anticipation.
