Hi Jessie:
it seems on 21st the day time is available for interviews, but not the evening time. 22 is more busy, she is free on the morning, but not from 12am-15:30pm. other time is Ok.
I think it is better we arrange two interviews all in 21st day time, and on the second day, our production team can go around Dubai to do some shooting.
I will give you the Yang Lan studio's company registration certificate tomorrow, because today is Sunday, and our legal department is not working.
Thanks
waiting for your reply
Lydia
I am organising an interview between my friend Lan ("Oprah of China") and the crown prince of Dubai

Hi Lydia
With regards to the interview with HH Sheikh Hamdan, we suggest the following.
We have taken into considering the need for a one-on-one interview in a studio environment, plus the preference for visitors from China to see our landmarks, the Bud Al Arab and Burj Khalifa; and the contrast with showing part of old Dubai. I am very happy to discuss this but we need to make a quick decision:
I. Yang Lan travels to Bud Al Arab (Sail shaped hotel) in a helicopter and lands at the helipad (Note — the ideal scenario would be for HH Sheikh Hamdan to be in the helicopter)
The one-on-one interview takes place in a suite at the Burj Al Arab and covers the main questions
Yang Lan and HH Sheikh Hamdan journey down through the Burj Al Arab and into a car: they are shown briefly travelling down Sheikh Zayed Road (main highway of Dubai)
They arrive at Sheikh Saeed House (historic home of HH Sheikh Hamdan's great-grandfather) - Yang Lan asks HH Sheikh Hamdan about his personal life, his love for poetry and his thoughts on Dubai's rise to a global city
They arrive at Burj Khalifa (world's tallest tower)
They travel to the top of Bud Khalifa - and discuss Dubai's ambition and future growth.
Please let me know your thoughts as soon as possible
Kind regards
Charlie
