Billionaires vie to see who can order more champagne in Saint Tropez

THIS IS A MOVIE
A pair of rival billionaires set a new world record Thursday night at Les Caves du Roy nightclub in St. Tropez with an East vs. West contest to see who could order the most champagne.
Zhen Low — the younger brother of big-spending Malaysian billionaire Jho Low — squared off against Winston Fisher of the prominent New York real-estate family. At the end of the night, Low was the “winner.” The bill? A staggering 2 million euros, or $2.6 million, according to an announcement made at the club.
Witnessing the revelry/rivalry were Thor Equities CEO Joseph Sitt, SBE CEO Sam Nazarian and Paris Hilton, who helped Jho Low celebrate his 28th birthday last year at a four-day party in Las Vegas.
The Low brothers are third-generation members of a distinguished Penang-based family involved in industries ranging from real estate to high-tech across the world.
Baby-faced, bespectacled Jho is known to New York club-owners for regularly racking up six-figure bar tabs by ordering dozens of $900 bottles of Cristal Champagne.
It’s Fleet Week in St. Tropez, and the port is backed up with flashy yachts and their flashy owners. “If somebody with money, particularly brand-new money, wants to get noticed by the Euro jet set, this is the time and place to be seen,”

  3. The entire bling era is way past dead. Its all about building businesses and spending wisely, for everyone. This over-the-top splurge holds no substance and wouldn’t work. Hit me up JD and lets collab.

    ADDITIONAL DONDRIA MARKETING IDEAS

    -DURING THE LIVE MARKETING MEETINGS VIA USTREAM

    1- CONTACT USTREAM TO LET THERE FOLLOWERS(1.5MILL) KNOW WHEN YOU GO LIVE

    2- SOMETHING THAT CAN HELP DONDRIA TREND IS WHEN YOU GO LIVE HAVE A SECTION ABOVE IN THE (BLOG,YOUTUBE,MERCHANDISE,DONDRIA,OCEANS’7,EXCLUSIVE) OPTIONS AS SOSODEFTV THAT DIRECTLY LINKS TO YOUR USRTEAM CHANNEL BUT PEOPLE CAN ONLY VIEW IT BY SIGNING IN VIA TWITTER & HAVE IT AUTOMATICALLY POST #SOSODEF #DONDRIAVSPHATFFFAT MARKETING MEETING JUST LIKE IT IS WHEN VIEWING THE “I NEED A GIRL” VIDEO IN THE EXCLUSIVE SECTION

    3-FANS CAN POST THEIR FAVOURITE LYRICS FROM DONDRIA SONGS FROM THE ALBUM OR MIXTAPE & HASTAG #DONDRIAVSPHATFFFAT EXAMPLE- I DREAM ABOUT YOU WHEN I SLEEP #DONDRIAVSPHATFFFAT

    4-ALL LIFERS GET DONDRIA’S VIDEO TO #1 THIS WEEK ON 106&PARK & SHE WILL GO ON TO PERFORM IT LIVE & SHECAN TREND WORLDWIDE LIKE SHE DID LAST TIME SHE WAS ON

    5-THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TWITTER BUT JD IF YOU CAN HAVE AN INTERVIEW ON FUSE LIKE DIDDY, 50, GAGA & THE REST HAVE HAD TALKING ABOUT THE NEW LOOK SOSODEF & OFCOURSE DONDRIA

    6-FROM NOW ON TILL THE ALBUM COMES OUT HAVE THE DONDRIA ALBUM SAMPLER AS THE FIRST POST ON THE SITE LIKE YOU DID WHEN THE “YOU’RE THE ONE”VIDEO WAS RELEASED & YOU KEPT IT UP FOR A WEEK

    RESPONSE TO TEAM DONDRIA POST

    KEY WORDS- TWITTER MARKETING(AKA-VIRAL MARKETING)

    1- Do TWITTER INTERVIEWS with bloggers like NECOLE BITCHIE(over 100K followers) Directly connects with her fan base

    2- Have TWITTER Chats with hear TOUR PARTNERS TREY SONGZ(Over 800K Followers) & MONICA(oVER 300K Followers) even if they are CALCULATED CHATS about the upcoming tour

    3- HAVE HER(DONDRIA) CONSULT WITH KERI HILSON(Over 670K followers) VIA TWITTER ABOUT being a new female artist & kind of ask for ADVISE

    4-PROFILE PICS- Like you said get as many people(Dondria & Your Fans) change there AVATARS to the album cover

    5- VIRAL OUTLETS- Since this is basically a viral marketing campaign, Utilize all outlets such as FaceBook, Myspace & Youtube9All should have her ALBUM COVER AS THERE PROFILE PICTURES, INCLUDING YOUR(JD) MYSPACE PAGE) if not Everyday Every other day with constant updates

    6- Streamline all Dondria tagged postings here on global14 under the Dondria section on the header where you find the mixtape coz essentially Dondria doesnt have a website & if people come to global14 all they will find is the mixtape

    7-Dondria LTL- Youtube Video Countdown with her interacting with fans during her different promotional shows & travels like Keri did before her album came out

    8- The global 14 upper header shouls be dondria album cover also stating the release day of the album 8/17/10

    9-Dondria trending- Since she’s a new artist that his not as big as a Justin bieber, provide an incentive for fans to talk about her album every day like you did by saying you would follow them if they changed their avatars to the album cover, create something like a Team Dondria Vs Team Phatfffat on twitter & random fans will be picked on twitter every day for meet & greets during the tour

    10- At the end of the day its all about creating fans interest in Dondria’s music & informing them on the release date of the “Dondria Vs Phattffatt” & most of all for them to but the record when it comes out 8/17/10.This is just a start to generate your interest in my ideas so we can work together, like i’ve mentioned before Most artists don’t fail coz of lack of good music (Example R.Kelly) but because of poor strategic marketing ideas & execution… I can add more ideas for Dondria, Johnta, & the rest of the SoSoDef Camp

    Get @ me @TONGADUDE ON TWITTER
    LIFERS if you like my ideas hit up JD on twitter @LTLline & tell him to hire me…

  5. That’s what’s up, cause if you can & wanna do that way, for there’s no time that’s promised!!! Therefore, enjoy the ride that’s given unto you & know that it’s yours.

  6. PS; It’s just a movie, yet if it was based on a true story my comment would be the same.

  7. WOW CANT WAIT TILL I’M ABLE TO DO STUFF LIKE THAT FOR MY BIRTHDAY

  8. guess thats what’s hot in the streets lol. and here i am struggling to pay my college tuition. would never hate on money tho thats how you lived it up.

  9. Yea it does sound fun, but its also crazy…
    Dondria Marketing Ideas:
    1. Do a contest where people take pics of their receipt showing they purchased the cd and send them in and a winner will win a prize
    2.For the Twitter war break the teams up. People with twitter names starting with A-M are #teamdondria and N-Z are #teamphatfffat. Officially announce this on next ustream.
    3. Tell everyone to vote and also tweet for people to vote for @dondria video on 106 & Park
    4. Tell people to do a twitpic of a pic of dondria on some site that they find once a day
    5. Tell people to tell all their friends on facebook to add http://www.facebook.com/dondria.fields
    6. Try to get all of her youtube friends to sign up for a twitter and if they have one already to follow her and tweet #dondriavsphatfffat.
    7. Tell twitter followers to tweet “http://eventful.com/performers/trey-songz-/P0-001-000010533-1/events” which is a link to the tour dates
    8. Tell people to make sure they Tweet her album release date and always mention @dondria #dondriavsphatfffat
    9. Tell people to share her mixtape so people can get a chance to hear her if they havent already.
    10. Make sure that everyone in the SOSODEF camp that has a twitter says something good about dondria daily so their followers will check her out.
    11. Add some more things in the Dondria section on the global14 site that will draw a little more attention from fans like pictures.
    12. Continue to have her hitting up radio stations while she is on tour
    13. Have Dondria create a ustream channel
    14. Make sure Dondria continues to hit up twitter with her tweets

    I have many more ideas so JD make sure you remember @ballajb.
    I have a Business Marketing degree from San Jose State University so I am interested in Marketing for SOSODEF and that only not singing and producing.

    So please everyone follow me @ballajb on Twitter and tell @LTLline to hire me.

    Thanks

  10. Jesus Christ, the amount of money they spend just to show off to a club of people who don’t even like them or they’ll never see again for the rest of their lives. If I had that money, I’d happily invest it into my hometown or to a training institution for the homeless to get back on their feet.

    BTW JD, how come you don’t have Dondria collab with Bow Wow or other big artists you know on a HUGE #1 single contender? Whatever he comes up with next should be a hit being cash money and all..
