Chapter 735: Finished Calf(1/2)
Is the private jet almost ready for renovation?
Fang Chen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
After a few breaths passed, Fang Chen finally came to his senses and asked in disbelief: "Are you kidding? From the time the United States decided to purchase a private jet to now, it has not even been twenty days in total. You
You actually told me that the aircraft has been renovated?"
Buying a private jet was not a big deal, so he never took care of it from beginning to end and left everything to Wu Maocai.
But looking at it now, he is either a wise man or a trustworthy person. There is absolutely no middle option.
And his intuition told him that it was probably the latter.
It's not that Fang Chen doesn't believe Wu Maocai, it's because the speed is so fast that it's a bit weird. Boeing and Airbus sell private jets. Generally speaking, the order period is at least one year, no matter how urgent it is.
, it also took half a year, but Wu Maocai actually gave him twenty days to decorate it.
When asked by Fang Chen, Wu Maocai suddenly felt a little wilted. He scratched the back of his head and said with some uncertainty: "It can't be said that it is completely decorated. The exterior painting of the aircraft has not been done yet, and there is not much decoration inside.
The bar and some entertainment facilities have not yet been completed..."
Listening to Wu Maocai saying that he didn't do this or that, Fang Chen's heart suddenly went cold.
Seeing Fang Chen's face getting darker and darker, Wu Maocai hurriedly explained: "But some of the original seats that should be removed have been removed, and the rooms prepared for you have been prepared, and the places that should be decorated have also been decorated.
The bed, cabinets, tables, chairs, benches, etc. have all been firmly fixed on the fuselage. There is no problem with safety and so on. I asked the captain of Aeroflot and they said that the plane can take off at any time.
"
The captain of Aeroflot said it can take off at any time!
Fang Chen rubbed his face fiercely. No matter which country in the world the captain said he could take off at any time, he would believe it, but he really couldn't believe what the Russian Airlines captain said.
He had never seen an aircraft that the Aeroflot captain did not dare to fly, a climate condition that he did not dare to fly, and an environment and terrain that he did not dare to fly.
Rain, thunderstorms, typhoons, and volcanic eruptions are all trivial matters for the Aeroflot captain and he can fly.
To be honest, Fang Chen really felt that if the Aeroflot captain was given a piece of wood, he would dare to fly down from a high altitude.
For this kind of airline captain who dared to cover all the cockpit windows, bet on blind landing, and kill himself and more than 70 people on the plane, Fang Chen really couldn't believe their words.
Who can guarantee that this captain is not the second person to dare to do this blind landing?
Wu Maocai laughed dryly. At this time, he also felt that it was a bit unreliable for him to use the words of the Aeroflot captain as an endorsement.
"In fact, not only the captain of Aeroflot came to see it, but also the chief engineer of the Kuibyshev Aircraft Manufacturing Plant, the director of the branch factory, and the director of the workshop, all of whom have evaluated the current state of the aircraft and said that in addition to painting and decoration, this aircraft
I didn’t have time to make some bits and pieces of gadgets, but the rest is no problem, especially the safety aspect.”
After hearing this, Fang Chen's expression moved slightly. Kuibyshev Aircraft Manufacturing Plant is the largest civil aviation manufacturer in Russia. It is the world's first supersonic passenger aircraft. The Tu-144 was produced by their factory. It is also the head of the Soviet Union and Russia.
The designated manufacturer of presidential planes.
If their chief engineer and branch factory director both say there is no problem, then basically it can be said that there is no problem, at least there won’t be any big mistakes.
Seeing that Fang Chen was a little moved, Wu Maocai rolled his eyes, patted his chest and said: "Master Jiu, except for the decoration, this aircraft has no problem with safety. After all, the changes are all inside the cabin, which is actually not the same as flight safety."
It doesn’t matter, and I promise you, you will stay in Russia for one more day, and I will ask them to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the plane, and we will definitely be able to fly the day after tomorrow."
"And you really don't want to take your own private jet back?"
"Think about it again. You used to sit in first class for more than ten hours. Are you comfortable?"
"Besides, are you willing to let Mengmeng stay in the cargo hold for more than ten hours?"
Listening to Wu Maocai's three fatal questions, Fang Chen suddenly felt like his head was getting big.
After thinking for a long time, Fang Chen said in a deep voice: "Let's do this. I will take a practical look at this plane tomorrow. If it works, I will take this plane back. If it doesn't work, I will book an ordinary flight back."
Upon hearing this, Wu Maocai suddenly burst into cheers, like a ghost crying or a wolf howling. If he didn't know this, he would have thought he had picked up hundreds of millions.
Shocked, Huiming, Han Guang and others rushed in quickly, thinking that something had happened to Fang Chen.
After knowing that Wu Maocai was like this because of the private plane incident, Huiming glared at Wu Maocai so hard that his heart almost jumped out of his chest just now.
Wu Maocai didn't care at this time, he kept being silly and happy, and pointed at thousands of people with a rather cold eyebrow. The bright moon shone on the river, and he did whatever he wanted.
His dream of a private jet finally came true, how could he not be happy.
Fang Chen shook his head helplessly, not knowing if he had just promised Wu Maocai to stay one more day, whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
The reason why he agreed to Wu Maocai's suggestion was that it was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it was difficult to go from luxury to frugality. He had flown in the Guo family's private jet in Malaysia for two days, and then went back to take an ordinary civil airliner. It was uncomfortable no matter how hard it was.
Another point is that when he came this time, the fighter jets escorting him didn't feel good and could easily scare others.
But considering the situation in Russia, he cannot refuse fighter escort.
He is quite concerned about his own life.
"However, I agreed in advance that if you can't fly after seeing the plane tomorrow, your salary for the next month will be gone." Fang Chen said coldly.
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Wu Maocai's face froze as if it had been frozen.
After a long time, he finally agreed with a look of hesitation and struggle, his whole body was as wilted as an eggplant beaten by frost.
And not long after staying in the hotel, Wu Maocai said hello and ran towards the Kuibyshev Manufacturing Factory. For someone like him who is obsessed with money and is extremely picky, deducting one month's salary can really kill him.
Personal life.
Seeing Wu Maocai's panicked and embarrassed figure, Fang Chen's lips curled up slightly. If you want to realize your dream, you need to pay a price.
"Huiming, give Ma Yun a call. I'm going to Astai Market to have a look." Fang Chen said suddenly.
Astai Market is the base camp of Chinese tycoons in Russia, and it is also the main distribution center for Chinese goods. It can be said that every inch of land is precious. For a shop built with two used containers, the annual rent is almost half a million Chinese dollars, which is ridiculously expensive.
.
With this year's rent, I can buy two or three small courtyard houses of 100 square meters in Yanjing.
But even though it is so expensive, everyone has still snapped up it before.
Originally, Fang Chen only owned one-third of the shops in the Astai Market. No, last year, by attacking Liu Mazi and Jian Tou Meng, he managed the Chinese tycoon. He said hello to Luzhkov and brought the entire market together.
All Astai's land was bought and became his territory.
Since he had already intervened, and he also planned to turn the business of cheating into a long-term Sino-Russian trade, he simply demolished the Astai Market and rebuilt a trading city similar to the Yiwu Small Commodity Market.
When he was in China, he had been thinking about going to Astai Market to see how it was built, but due to time constraints, he never had time to go and see it.
Now, thanks to Wu Maocai, he had an extra day, so he wanted to take a look.
New Asta Market.
Accompanied by Ma Yun and Hu Chimin, Fang Chen casually looked at the bustling and crowded New Astai Market.
The new Astai Market is actually just a few temporary stalls opened next to the original Astai Market, without even a decent shop.
After all, even if the Asta market disappears, men should still do business, and in the past few months, due to inflation in Russia, everyone has really made a lot of money.
The entire New Astai Market looked even more lively than before.
"Do you have any opinions on the removal of Astai Market?" Fang Chen asked casually.
Ma Yun thought about it for a moment, and then said slowly: "There are a small number of people who have opinions, but the vast majority of people still support it. After all, after you built the trade city, the environment for everyone to do business has become better. You have
The possibilities for shops are also much greater, and most importantly, you also promise that the rent will definitely be much cheaper than that of the Asty Market under the control of the Russian guys."
Hearing what Ma Yun said, Fang Chen couldn't help but narrow his eyes and was silent for a while.
There is something in Ma Yun's words.
After a few breaths passed, Fang Chen said lightly: "According to what you said, those who are opposed to it are the big tycoons who own shops?"
Ma Yun laughed twice and slapped her on the back with a moderate flattery, "I know, I can't hide it from you."
Indeed, those who opposed it were all the big ones among the bad guys, and the number of people who opposed it was not small.
Fang Chen glanced at Ma Yun and found that Ma Yun was getting more and more cunning.
"If you object, just object. It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married. Let them go. If they have the ability to move out of Astai Market, I actually agree." Fang Chen said nonchalantly.
"They don't even have the courage to yell like me. How dare they move out? They just like to mutter a few words when they have nothing to do." Ma Yun said.
Fang Chen sighed and shook his head, "It's easy to shake a mountain, but it's hard to shake those with vested interests."
Ma Yun was startled for a moment, then nodded with deep feeling.
It should be a good thing to say that Fang Zong has demolished the Astai Market, built a new trade city, and promised that the rent will be lower than before, and also eliminated their previous misery of being extorted by the Russians.
right.
But for these big business owners who used to own stores, it is indeed a bad thing.
Although the original shop was relatively shabby, compared to most of the proprietors who set up stalls, these big proprietors who owned shops were invisibly taller.
These two shops stacked up with damaged containers are a symbol of their strength and status. They are the object of compliments and envy of street vendors, and they are even an elusive dream.
And when doing business, those Russians also like to deal with these big dealers who have shops and buy their goods.
Well, now, if Fang Chen builds the Trade City, and the number of shops in the Trade City is several times that of the original, wouldn't it mean that the street vendors who they originally looked down upon would also have the qualifications to be on an equal footing with them, and compete with them for business?
of capital.
All of a sudden, they suffered a huge loss of face. How could they agree to the establishment of a trade city?
To be continued...
