Chapter 174
Early morning.
Xiao Ran was swimming quickly in the pool, when the mobile phone placed on the edge of the pool suddenly rang.
It was David who called.
Hearing the phone ringing, Xiao Ran immediately came out of the pool and picked up the phone casually.
The next moment, David's voice came.
"Sean, the two private jets you want have been completed, and you can pick up the goods at any time
" Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise:
"The speed is actually so fast?" I thought it would take at least ten days and a half month?
"It wouldn't be a second-hand plane, would it?" The Gulfstream G700 is a new model, and there are no second-hand items!
David smiled and immediately gave an answer.
"It's not a second-hand aircraft, whether it's a Gulfstream G700 or a Bell 525, it's a brand new aircraft, and it's only flown a few times
" "These two private jets were ordered by other super-rich people, just manufactured, and before they had time to pick up the goods, they caught up with the current
situation" "Large-scale flight outages and business depressions made the two super-rich people who ordered the planes choose to give up and entrust dealers to resell these two aircraft
" "This situation is very common, many rich people who order private jets choose to give up the deposit, no longer pay the final payment, and do not pick up the goods
" "In this way, there are many new private jets on the market, and they are all sold at discounts"
Hearing this, Xiao Ran's eyes suddenly lit up.
And this good thing? This cheap can't be missed!
After muttering to himself, he immediately said excitedly:
"Doesn't this mean that I have many options and can bargain fiercely?"
David understood what he meant instantly.
"That's right, Sean, you can safely bargain and request various configurations according to your own needs
" "For those aircraft manufacturers and dealers, being able to sell aircraft now and receive payment to keep the business running is the first priority
" "They have received a huge deposit before, even if they sell the aircraft at a discount, in fact, it is not a loss
" "Great!"
Xiao Ran waved his fist excitedly, and then said jokingly:
"David, you send the relevant private jets and helicopters information, it is best to send more, I will study it carefully
" "If the price is right, even if you buy an Airbus A380 as a private jet, it is not impossible"
said, he walked to the bathroom next to him and stopped swimming.
"Okay, Sean, I'll send you the information I just received
" "Since I put the news out last night, my mailbox has almost been overwhelmed by emails from private jet dealers!"
David said with a smile.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Ran had changed his clothes, sat on the sofa and began to check his email.
What appears on the computer screen are private jets of different brands and models.
As David said, these private jets are new aircraft that have just been built, but have been reluctantly abandoned.
Some aircraft have completed interior decoration and painting operations, and can fly and soar through the air with a full tank of fuel.
Others have not yet been decorated inside, but are bare metal, not so good-looking.
If you buy bare metal, you will need to wait a while before receiving the goods.
The same is true for several commercial helicopters, all new aircraft that have been built.
In addition to aircraft pictures and information, dealers of various brands of aircraft have provided a wealth of optional solutions, and even private customized solutions.
Moreover, these dealers promise to deliver in the shortest possible time under the premise of ensuring quality.
It can be seen that the suspension of flights for more than half a year has made the operation of these guys extremely difficult.
Now that there is a big money owner, they naturally do not want to let it go.
While speaking, Elaine and Fang Yufei also got up, washed and came to the living room.
Xiao Ran immediately called them over, asked them to look at the information of those private jets, and discussed which private jet and helicopter to choose.
It didn't take long for them to get results.
At the suggestion of two beauties, Xiao Ran chose a Gulfstream G700 that had completed all the interior and exterior decoration and painting, and only needed to change the name.
All the equipment and interior of this Gulfstream G700, as well as the seats and furniture, are top-of-the-line and impeccable.
Its decoration style is modern light luxury, but also more in line with everyone's aesthetics, just need to make some small adjustments.
The work of setting and adjusting is naturally the responsibility of the two beauties.
As for the medium helicopter, Xiao Ran chose a Bell 525 bare aircraft that had just left the factory.
Subsequently, according to their own ideas, they chose various configurations and paints, as well as interiors and furniture, etc.
After some deliberation, they also settled on the names of the two private jets.
The Gulfstream G700 private jet was named Discovery, and the Bell 525 helicopter was named Dragon.
After finishing these things, Xiao Ran immediately called David and asked him to sign contracts with two aircraft dealers to buy the two aircraft.
As for the price, naturally the lower the better, and David will bargain with the other party.
Regarding the purchase of these two private jets, Xiao Ran did not plan to come forward himself, and it was more appropriate for David to come forward.
The reason for this is to avoid attracting too much attention, which is not good.
After finalizing the purchase of two aircraft, Xiao Ran suddenly changed his tone.
"David, you contact the headhunting company to recruit four senior pilots
" "Including two private business jet pilots, and two helicopter pilots, must have rich flying experience
" "The most important thing is to have roots and feet, and must do a good background check"
The words did not fall, David immediately responded.
"No problem, Sean, leave this matter to me, it will be done soon
" "Now the world is full of pilots looking for jobs, as long as the news is released, there will be many senior pilots flocking to it immediately!"
After a few more conversations, they ended the call.
Later, Xiao Ran called Counselor He of the Consulate General.
The phone was connected, and after a few pleasantries, he immediately got to the point.
"Uncle He, I'm going to buy an ultra-long-range business jet, there are some things I want to inquire about with you
" "In the current situation of the suspension of flights between the two countries, can I return home smoothly on my own private jet?"
"Even if you can't fly directly, even if you travel to several countries, as long as you can fly back to China in the end
" "Ah!"
Counselor He was taken aback and exclaimed directly.
Immediately afterwards, he said with emotion:
"Your kid's hand is really big, tens of millions of dollars of ultra-long-range private jets, just buy it, it's like buying a toy!"
"As for the matter of taking a private jet to fly directly to China, I can't give an answer for the time being, I need to report it, but I don't think the problem is big
" "But this matter is not our side's final say, you have to open up some joints between the US air traffic control and Los Angeles"
Hearing this, Xiao Ran's eyes were suddenly full of surprise.
"That's great, Uncle He, you're in trouble!"
"If possible, I would also like to apply for a special private jet route from Los Angeles to fly directly domestically?"
"As for the US air traffic control and Los Angeles, it is not a problem at all, and it can be opened with money"
No surprise, Counselor He was taken aback again.
"Boom! Your boy's heart is so big!
"I thought you just wanted to go home and see, who would have thought that you actually wanted to open a private jet route from Los Angeles to China
" "This idea is very good, but to achieve the goal, I am afraid it will be quite difficult
" Xiao Ran laughed softly, and then said jokingly:
"It is possible to think about it!" There is only a hint of a chance of success, I am willing to try
it" "As long as I can open this private jet special route, I can find a way to send back more good things
" Counselor He paused for a moment before replying in a deep voice:
"I will tell the consul general your idea, help you kid fight for it, you just wait for the result!"
After a few more conversations, they ended the call.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran and Elaine went to the kitchen for breakfast.
By nine o'clock in the morning, the three of them drove out of the villa and went to the antique shop on Brighton Road.
At the same time, the demands that Xiao Ran made to Counselor He on the phone had quickly reached the ears of some people in China.
For this matter, many people are happy to see it.
