Al Jazeera reported that Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman will be hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris for talks. Yahoo and Deadline disclosed that Saudi Arabia intends to invest $7 billion in three new theme parks near Paris, while Bloomberg highlighted the Crown Prince’s personal interest in manga as a driver of the deal. Reuters specified the project as a €6 billion Dragon Ball Z park complex, and Bloomberg framed the partnership as a cultural‑themed entertainment venture.

The parks are slated to feature attractions based on popular Japanese franchises, with the Dragon Ball Z concept receiving particular attention from both governments. The monetary figures differ, with U.S. dollars quoted by Yahoo, Deadline and Bloomberg and euros cited by Reuters, creating a reporting variance on the total size of the investment. Despite the discrepancy, all outlets agree the Crown Prince’s visit will include discussions on the announced theme‑park projects.

The meeting is confirmed, and the precise terms of the deals remain to be finalized.
