Chapter 110: Rewards
"You can't say that, if there weren't enough benefits, do you think Honda would put so much effort into doing these things?" Chen Geng shook his head.
That's right!
Rosemary admits that the boss has a point, but then the problem arises: "But so far, only Honda has given the best ...... conditions."
"I think we're a little anxious?" Chen Geng suddenly frowned: "With so many things, can we be busy?"
"Anxious?" Rosemary was stunned for a moment, then smacked her lips: "Really!"
The rapid development of the "traditional" business means that while a large number of people are needed, they also need to invest a lot of energy, but while the "traditional business" needs to take up a lot of their own time, a large number of new businesses have emerged.
Well, even if Anderson is in charge of the modification part, and the new engines and new models developed for the African and Southeast Asian markets are in charge of the newly established technical research and development department, but there is no need to ask too much about it, but the negotiations with GM on the obsolete production line in Mexico, the negotiations with Honda, Ford and GM on the "beast" and more design aspects have been following on their own, and now there is another X-BO......
During this time, the heel of the busy hit the back of the head, and he was busy, and the boss didn't say that he still reacted, but now when Chen Geng said this, Rosemary suddenly had a feeling: Yes, it turns out that I am really busy.
Of course, as a professional manager, having a lot of work in hand is the best way to prove to the boss that he is competent, not to mention that according to the previous agreement with Mr. Fernandez, he will soon own a stake in the company, but Rosemary also knows that the busier he is, the more he cannot be anxious, and the more anxious he is, it is easy to be exploited.
"Hearing you say that, I think I really need two assistants, at least one assistant and one secretary," Rosemary said, "or I'll be too busy, and I'll need two more deputy general managers on the company's side......"
Without waiting for Rosemary to finish speaking, Chen Geng waved his hand and said, "Your own secretary and assistant are chosen by yourself, and the salary is responsible for the company." Finally, the company needs more manpower...... Think about how many new people you need to add and write a report back to it. β
"Okay. β
"But that's not what I'm going to tell you, I'm very busy during this time, and I don't have time to give you too much time off, but it's okay to take half a day a day, so ...... Let's go buy an airplane. β
"Buying a plane?" Rosemary was surprised.
She didn't expect the boss to be so neat, before this she thought that Mr. FernΓ‘ndez would always wait for himself to hint three or five times before he would reluctantly buy a plane, aren't the bosses like this, picking to death, but now, the boss actually offered to buy a plane?
Looking at Rosemary's expression, Chen Geng asked, "Surprised?"
"Sort of. Rosemary said frankly: "Usually the bosses are not like this, and besides, this plane is mainly used by me......"
"That's your American bosses are short-sighted, a little money just care about their own enjoyment, I am different from those short-sighted rat-like guys, I know that there will be output only if there is input, since this aircraft is good and helpful to our development, and our current financial situation also allows us to do so, then buy it, not to mention that I promised you." Chen Geng unceremoniously damaged the bosses in the United States.
ββ¦β¦β
Rosemary was a little speechless: "You're such a different boss." β
But she knew in her heart that Mr. FernΓ‘ndez was using it to help him decompress.
"Hahaha......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
As one of the largest and most economically developed cities in the United States, Detroit's successive mayors have been extremely hard, but the degree of development of the commercial, especially general aviation and business aviation markets, can definitely rank in the top ten of all cities in the United States, and there are more than 10 general aircraft dealers in the whole of Detroit, including the nearest one less than 30 kilometers from Fernandez...... It sounds like a long way, but for Americans who are used to being more than 50 kilometers away from home and work, it's a "drizzle".
It is different from the dealer who sells cars, the quality of the employees of the aircraft dealer is obviously a lot higher, and the eyes are also poisonous, seeing Chen Geng's group of five people who came in, the two men in suits are obviously the role of bodyguards, and the younger of the other two women is obviously a personal assistant, and the slightly older woman is also obviously led by the young Asian man...... There's not much to say, although I've been in this business for so long and I've never met an Asian who comes to buy a plane, but as long as people have money, it's not a problem.
"Hello sir," two beautiful sales consultants with blond hair greeted Chen Geng, and the smiles on their faces made people feel like a spring breeze: "I'm Amy, the sales consultant of Miller Aircraft Sales Company, this is my colleague Mihil, what can we do to help you?"
Chen Geng nodded slightly: "Hello, I'm going to buy an airplane and use it as a business jet for my company." β
"Yes sir, what are your specific requirements for the aircraft, such as range, take-off method, single engine or twin engine, etc.?" Amy, who is obviously the main one, said with a sweet smile, "We at Miller Aircraft Sales Company are the most powerful civil aircraft seller in the Detroit area, and now there are more than 30 different types of aircraft and used aircraft for you to choose from. β
General aviation in the United States is indeed developed, and 1978 is the peak of general aviation, in this year. Major general aviation aircraft manufacturers in the United States delivered 17,811 general aviation aircraft to the market, including 14,398 piston aircraft.
But the good times did not last long, or it was booming and declining, by 1994, the United States general aviation manufacturers only delivered 929 general aviation aircraft of various types, a market almost disappeared, the American general aviation industry lost more than 100,000 jobs, most manufacturers stopped the production of single-engine piston general aircraft, but now, the United States general aviation field is undoubtedly highly developed.
Chen Geng thought for a while and said: "I want a twin-engine fixed-wing aircraft that can take 6 to 8 passengers and have a range of more than 1,500 kilometers, the cabin should be comfortable, the space should be as large as possible, and it is best to have a two-person or three-person sofa that can make people lie down and rest, and the cost of use should be as low as possible, well, in the case of meeting the requirements, it is best to have a turbine engine...... Is there anything else you would like to add?"
This was said to Rosemary, after all, she may have been using the plane for longer than she was herself.
Rosemary added: "The bathroom must be independent, not the kind that can be counted by just pulling a curtain." β
Chen Geng immediately nodded: "That's right, it must be a separate bathroom." β
If it's just a group of big men traveling, but if there is a woman on the plane, this woman's unloading demand comes...... If the bathroom is just a curtain, it will be embarrassing, and if the movement is louder when unloading......
There must be a separate toilet.
"Okay," Amy nodded immediately, "can you fly 1,500 kilometers in a twin-engine fixed-wing aircraft with a private toilet for 6 to 8 VIPs? β
"It's okay to use a second-hand phone, but it can't be too old, preferably not more than 12 years. β
"It's a coincidence, there are a few planes that meet your requirements that are no more than 8 years old," Hearing Chen Geng's words, Amy immediately smiled, she knew that the chance of this business being closed was more than 50%: "If you don't mind, can you go to see where the plane is?"
Will Chen Geng refuse?
Of course not.
In the end, it is the largest aircraft dealer in Detroit, and Miller & Co. not only has a large outdoor apron and an indoor apron that can accommodate 10 aircraft, but even a few small cars for transportation, which are not many golf carts.
"The first aircraft I recommended for you was this one: the Cessna 500 produced by Cessna in 1973. Cessna just renamed the 500 Series 'Citation I' last year, and the aircraft is powered by two Pratt & Whitney JT15D turbofan engines, with a maximum range of 2,460 kilometres and a cruising speed of 662 kilometres per hour. β
While Amy was speaking, her little assistant Mishiel had already opened the door of the plane: "We bought this plane from New York, the previous owner is a wealthy man in the real estate industry in New York, we have carried out a comprehensive cleaning and refurbishment of the interior of the aircraft, the aircraft has also been fully overhauled and maintained, everything is in the best condition, and it can be used with oil, please come with me......"
After getting on the plane, Chen Geng's brows furrowed slightly, not very satisfied: this cabin is too small.
The furnishings in the cabin are very simple, three independent sofas with armrests on the right, a double sofa and a single independent sofa on the left, all the sofas are soft leather, there is a small table that can be pulled and folded in the middle of the first two independent sofas on the right side, there is a door that looks like it should be solid wood at the back of the cabin, it is estimated that there should be a luggage compartment and a toilet, the cabin height is about 1.4 meters, of course, the cabin of an aircraft of this size is basically like this, nothing to be picky about, but the length of the cabin is a little smaller, only about 3 meters by sight.
Chen Geng was not very satisfied: "The cabin is a little shorter...... What's the other plane?"
