4 weeks ago | cn.wsj.com | Rory Jones

五年前，卡洛斯·戈恩(Carlos Ghosn)从日本逃往黎巴嫩，他被指控从自己经营的汽车公司日产(Nissan)和雷诺(Renault)挪用了数百万美元资金。现在，他每天早晨5点30分起床。他的妻子卡罗莱(Carole)起得稍晚一点，起床后，两人带着金毛犬美刻尔(Melqart)——这是一个象征生与死的腓尼基神灵的名字——在海滩散步，或者在价值2,000万美元的粉色豪宅里（日产对其主张所有权）跟着私人教练健身。在另一些日子里，戈恩会开着他那艘长120英尺（合37米）的游艇（日产也对其主张所有权）出海，不过，他从来不会离开黎巴嫩水域。Copyright ©2025 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
