Chapter 174 Buying a Private Jet
The conversation between the two caught the attention of a salesperson next to them. It was obvious that this was a customer with a clear intention to purchase, and this kind of customer is the easiest to close a deal with.
"Sir, would you like to take a look at this aircraft?" A pretty lady in uniform handed over a document, "This is the latest ultra-long-range business jet launched by our company. The range can reach 7,000 nautical miles, which is 12,964 kilometers.
It is enough to fly directly from New York in the United States to four major first-tier cities in China.”
Zhao Ming took the information and looked at it. It said "Gulfstream G650 - the world's top business jet."
Seeing Zhao Ming's interested look, the beauty in uniform continued to introduce: "This aircraft is currently the business jet with the most spacious cabin area, the fastest cruising speed, and the longest range on the market. Its cabin pressure altitude is the highest among all business jets.
It is the lowest, only 1,478 meters. Even at the maximum cruising altitude of 15,545 meters, the pressure in the cabin is the same."
"Uh, cabin pressure altitude..." Zhao Ming was a little confused about what this professional name meant.
"Oh, this refers to the altitude at which the aircraft cabin pressure is equivalent. After the aircraft takes off, as the flight altitude increases, the surrounding air becomes thinner, the air pressure drops, and the temperature also drops. At this time, the aircraft needs to provide
The cabin is pressurized so that the pressure inside the cabin is higher than the outside atmospheric pressure.”
"I understand." Zhao Ming nodded, "The lower the height, the better, right?"
"Yes, the cabin pressure altitude of an ordinary passenger aircraft is about 2,000 meters. The comfort level of our business jet in this regard is much higher than that of ordinary passenger aircraft."
"Not to mention the equipment inside the aircraft, it must be far superior to ordinary passenger aircraft, right?"
"Of course, this business jet has increased the inclination of the seats, widened the leg space, and also has a box inside. The box contains a single seat, a sofa that can be turned into a double bed, and a
A 66cm pop-up large LED display. In addition, the aircraft also has a full kitchen and bar, as well as a variety of entertainment facilities, including satellite phones, wireless Internet, 26-inch TVs and other configurations..."
After the beauties in uniform introduced them, Zhao Ming and He Li nodded repeatedly, very satisfied.
"So where can I buy it?" He Li couldn't help but ask.
"If you order now, the price is favorable, and the standard configuration only costs 410 million yuan. After the design plan is determined, it will only take 12 months to deliver it for use."
Zhao Ming frowned and said, "The price is not an issue, but 12 months is a bit too long. Don't you have any in stock?"
The beautiful woman in uniform shook her head, "Unfortunately, this aircraft sells very well, and the company currently does not have it in stock."
"If I add money, can you help me think of a way? I believe you must have a way, right?" Zhao Ming said with a smile.
There is nothing that cannot be done with money. If there is anything, it is because the money is not enough.
In the end, Zhao Ming signed a purchase contract at a price of 450 million, with delivery within half a month. It was affiliated to another aviation service company that cooperated with Gulfstream, and the annual maintenance cost was 40 million.
"Oh my god! Forty million per year!" On the way back, He Li was still in shock. "If I had known that the maintenance fees were so expensive, we might as well have chartered a plane."
"Come on, does it feel the same when taking a taxi or driving a self-driving car? Since those rich people can buy their own planes, how can we be worse than them?"
"Well, that's right. After our black technology is released one after another, the position of the world's richest man will probably be fixed on you, boss."
"Forget it, what are you doing with that false reputation? Isn't the style too low? Making money has never been my purpose. It's just that if I want to do things, I have to use money."
"That's true, money is not everything, but having no money is absolutely impossible."
"Okay, let's not talk about it. Now that we have bought a plane, we need a knowledgeable person to help manage it. It would be a waste of time for you to arrange things like a flight plan."
He Li nodded and said: "Yes, I really don't know anything about aviation and I have no interest in it. I have to find someone else, but where can I find him?"
"It's simple. I think the lady just now is pretty good. She has a good image, good temperament, and rich professional knowledge. You can contact her later and hire her with a high salary."
"Tch - rich professional knowledge, good image and good temperament are the key points, right?" He Li rolled her eyes, "What, you've fallen in love with her?"
"Why, are you jealous?" Zhao Ming laughed and did not deny it. "Under the same conditions, of course I would choose someone with a good image and good temperament. I feel good looking at him."
"Hmph, then I will also recruit some handsome guys to be assistants!"
"Yes, you can go ahead and recruit them, but there must be a prerequisite, that is, you must have strong business capabilities and at least be qualified for the corresponding position."
Although beautiful women are eye-catching, you can't have all female employees in the company, right? Then others should say that you are sexist. Since it is inevitable to recruit male employees, Zhao Ming doesn't mind recruiting a few good-looking ones.
"By the way, speaking of recruiting people, last time I asked you to find a headhunting company to recruit a few high-end talents to become general managers. How did it go? Each of our companies will be handed over one after another in the future. You want to
Responsible for overall management and limited energy."
"It's already underway. The three franchised stores of Pizza Hut, Burger King and KFC have already rented the space and are currently undergoing renovations. After the renovations are completed, all new employees, from store managers to store clerks, will be recruited. We don't need to invest much energy. We will review them once a month.
Just make an account.
The acquisition of the hospital is about to be completed. Except for the dean, the original team will not be moved. I am initially considering selecting the dean from among the old employees.
As the general manager of the material company, I plan to choose from the several decoration teams I currently cooperate with after a while.
As for the general manager of the film and television company, although our company's movie has not been released yet, it has gained a lot of popularity through previous media reports, and many people have applied for the job. I have not yet decided on the final candidate."
"Well, good. What about the trading company?"
"The trading company is currently mainly managed by Xiangzi."
"I trust her character, but I don't know what her abilities are. Can she be qualified for this position? In fact, the things the trading company wants to purchase are very complicated, and the amount involved is also the largest."
"No problem, Xiangzi is very studious. Ever since I told her about this, she has been reading books and learning this knowledge every day after work, very hard. In addition, the trading company has also introduced many business elites, and now various industries
They all have purchasers who are proficient in business. Especially in the finance department, the manager hired by the headhunting company has one of the best accounting skills in the country."
"Well, that's good. We have a lot of extra income... No, it's a donation from a well-intentioned person. We need to keep the accounts carefully so that people don't see the problem. But when it comes to paying taxes, don't make false accounts.
Just pay as much as you have to, and don’t feel bad about the money.”
He Li laughed, "I know, no matter how much money you save, you can't save protection fees. I still understand this truth."
