1027. Another one

When Fan Binbin returned to his guest room, his mind was still buzzing, and his mind was full of Nie Wei's answer, he wanted to buy a plane.

Although she had been shocked by Nie Wei's possible two-billion-dollar deal for a while, but at this time, when she heard that Nie Wei was going to buy a plane, she felt even more shocked than hearing about the two-billion-dollar deal.

Although she knew very well that no matter how good a plane was, it would not be worth two billion dollars, even a fighter jet could not be so expensive, but for Fan Binbin, the two billion that Nie Wei mentioned before was a business after all, and it would earn more business if it was spent.

But airplanes are different, which is a luxury among luxury goods in Fan Binbin's eyes.

Just like those supercars with millions or tens of millions in the eyes of ordinary people, these people may be able to afford to buy a car of more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, but those supercars of millions or even tens of millions are the existence that they dare not hope for.

And although Fan Binbin bought millions of supercars, just like her car in China at this time is a red classic F430, she never thought that she would be able to own a private jet one day.

Of course, it doesn't make her strange that a private jet is placed on Nie Wei, and many people may even be surprised, Nie Wei is already so rich, and there is no private jet yet?

But after all, Fan Binbin has been a friend since Nie Wei's debut, and the original friend suddenly said in front of him that he wanted to buy a private jet, which is indeed a very impactful thing for Fan Binbin.

And Nie Wei's appearance in her heart seems to be getting more and more out of reach.

Just when Fan Binbin couldn't sleep because Nie Wei mentioned to her that she wanted to buy a plane, in another room, Nie Wei didn't sleep, but was seriously thinking about the feasibility of a deal with Jenny.

In fact, when Jenny made that suggestion, Nie Wei didn't think about taking advantage of this to directly take 66% of the Lakers' shares, and then kick Jenny out.

Of course, this idea was ultimately rejected by Nie Wei.

Because running a team is not like running a company, the team has a team culture, and the team is not only part of the team itself, but also the fans who are not controlled.

In addition, Jenny has run the Lakers team for many years, if Nie Wei rashly cuts off the beard, it will be equivalent to tearing up his face with Jenny, and then I am afraid that the entire Lakers team will have to change blood, Nie Wei can change nutritionists, physical trainers, and even coaches, but what if there are also Jenny's irons among the players?

It's not impossible, it's a very possibility.

The key is that with such a toss, the Lakers will definitely be unstable, and the value will be greatly reduced, and the team that Nie Wei bought at a high price will become less valuable.

And to restore the vitality of the team, I am afraid it will take a long time, no matter how you look at it, the gains outweigh the losses.

Moreover, Nie Wei just wants to use the Lakers as a springboard, and does not want to really run a team, as he once said to Jenny, if he wants to make money, then it is better to put this money in an investment company.

And even if Nie Wei wants to buy a team, he will never sell a high-value team like the Lakers, which is the same as buying stocks, always buying low and selling high, and no one will buy when a stock seems to have risen to the top.

This is also why Nie Wei must put 15% of the benefits, so that he will not make a loss-making transaction, he wants shares, and he wants money.

Early the next morning, Fan Binbin knocked on Nie Wei's door with dark circles under his eyes.

Yesterday, when Nie Wei mentioned buying an airplane, he invited her to visit the aircraft manufacturing company together, and Fan Binbin nodded and agreed, thinking that although he couldn't afford to buy an airplane, it was a very knowledgeable thing to see.

So seeing that the appointed time was coming soon, she also found Nie Wei and prepared to go to the aircraft manufacturing company with him.

Buying a private jet was not a temporary idea for Nie Wei, but he had already made up his mind before coming to the United States, and even contacted the manufacturing company, and now the Cadillac President No. 1 that is parked downstairs is actually a special car specially sent by Gulfstream to pick up Nie's only pedestrian.

And the aircraft that Nie Wei is going to see this time has already had a target, which is the latest business jet G650 launched by Gulfstream.

This is an ultra-long-range business jet, Gulfstream announced that the aircraft has a range of up to 13,000 kilometers, which can fly directly from China to the United States, and the speed of this type of aircraft has reached Mach 0.995 in many tests, which is the closest to the speed of sound among all business jets known in the world.

In other words, this type of aircraft is currently the fastest among business jets, which can greatly save flight time, which is undoubtedly very attractive for Nie Wei, who is rich in time is money.

As for the rest, such as the aircraft has the largest cockpit in its current class, how luxurious the interior is, how many features it has, etc., these are the icing on the cake.

The price of such an excellent aircraft is naturally not cheap, in the Gulfstream's external quotation, the basic model is as high as 50 million US dollars, if Nie Wei wants to buy it, there are various taxes, etc., and the final transaction price will exceed 60 million US dollars, which is equivalent to 400 million Chinese dollars.

Of course, this money is nothing to Nie Wei now, and buying an airplane is like buying a game console.

The game console itself is only two or three thousand yuan, but there are only a few free games, if you want to play a good game, you must invest, and a game costs tens or even hundreds of yuan, not counting some games have a variety of attractive internal purchases, as a result, over time, you will find that the money to buy the game is much more than the investment to buy the console.

And the plane is the same, in fact, in Nie Wei's opinion, the plane itself is not too expensive, after all, its technical content and materials are placed there, but after buying the plane, the maintenance of those aircraft, the route, and the crew members, etc., that is the bulk of the cost.

Sometimes Nie Wei admires the attitude of these Americans in doing business.

For example, after knowing Nie Wei's intention to buy a G650, Gulfstream Company first contacted Nie Wei's secretary to determine the number of Nie Wei's entourage, and then sent a special car to wait at the door of the hotel early.

Then he dragged them to the airport, where a G650 was already waiting, and then Nie was the only pedestrian to take the plane to the Gulfstream company's location.

This is obviously to let Nie Wei enjoy the comfort and speed of the G650 in advance, and impress Nie Wei's heart with practical actions.

When I arrived at the Gulfstream company, it was a vice president of Gulfstream who came to receive Nie Wei, and he personally went into battle to explain to Nie Wei.

"What I want to know most now is how long it will take me to be on my plane if I place an order now. Nie Wei asked.

"Two years, according to your requirements, we can complete your order in two years. ”

"Of course, if you are willing to make a down payment of more than 30 percent, we will shorten this time as appropriate...... "The vice president said cautiously to Nie Wei.

MMP, Nie Wei and all the people around him who could hear the words of the vice president sounded this national scolding in their hearts at the same time.

"Thirty percent, how much less time, but what about fifty percent?"

"If you are willing to make a down payment of 30 percent, we can complete this order within a year and a half, and if you are willing to make a down payment of 50 percent, we guarantee to help you complete the order within one year!" Seeing Nie Weiyi, the vice president was immediately excited and hurriedly promised.

It's certainly impossible for a company like Gulfstream to wait for a customer to come to the door before starting to build an airplane, and there is a good chance that something unexpected will happen, such as a customer who ordered a plane goes bankrupt.

"What about the full amount?" Nie Wei thought for a while, and asked again, hearing Nie Wei say this, the vice president's face turned red with excitement, and he assured loudly: "Half a year, no, in March next year, I will definitely let you ride the G650 that is exclusive to you." ”

The rest is about crew training, and some aircraft maintenance, and Nie Wei, the crew and pilot recommended by the president, refused without thinking about it.

As early as when he made up his mind to buy an airplane, a senior officer from the air arts had already called Nie Wei, wanting to recommend a pilot to Nie Wei and ensure that his professional skills were the top one.

Of course, Nie Wei couldn't just listen to the words of this chief, and he also called someone to investigate afterwards, and finally came to the conclusion that this chief really didn't fool Nie Wei.

The mileage of the pilot he introduced to fly safely fully met the standards required by Nie Wei, and the most important thing is that in the pilot's profile, he also had two successful experiences of completing three types of blind landings in bad weather.

This kind of talent that the top ten airlines in the country are all rushing for, so why do they have to come to fly for Nie Wei?

Nie Wei also asked about this when he interviewed the pilot.

"On the one hand, the treatment you offer is very good, more than 50% higher than my current salary, on the other hand, I also have selfish intentions, I want to leave more time to spend with my family and children, especially my son, from birth to the present six years, I have only a handful of time with him, I don't want to maintain a relationship with my children to the extent of a 'familiar stranger', I want to be a responsible father. ”

"If I refuse you, won't it make you lose the opportunity to be a good father?" Nie Wei stood up with a smile, took the initiative to stretch out his hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ji Xiang, in the future, my plane will be handed over to you to be responsible." ”

"I will do my best to make sure you are safe on every trip. Ji Xiang's eyes flashed with excitement, and he held Nie Wei's hand with both hands, shook it, and assured at the same time.

Although the language is very simple, Nie Wei is very comfortable to listen to, Nie Wei spends such a high salary to hire pilots, isn't it just to ensure his own safety?

Nie Wei had already found the rest of the co-captain and flight attendant, and now he was waiting for the plane to arrive.

Nie Wei happily signed the purchase contract, narrowing the eyes of the vice president Le into a slit, after all, there are really too few customers like Nie Wei who buy the plane in full as soon as they come up, not to mention that they only looked at it for a long time and decided it, and the speed of this transaction also made him feel very comfortable.

For a high-quality customer like Nie Wei, this vice president naturally wants to 'repay the favor', the plane back to the city has already been arranged, and he also promised that when Nie Wei returns to Huaxia, he can also take their G650 from Gulfstream, and the whole process is free, so it should be given to Nie Wei to experience it in advance.

And the purpose of this vice president is also self-evident, how can a big customer like Nie Wei only buy one plane, Nie Wei will definitely buy a second or even a third plane in the future, and they can make the service feel at home, it can also leave a good impression on Nie Wei, and it is also an investment in the future.

Nie Wei did not let the vice president send him off, saying that he still had to take a walk around the city and would return to Los Angeles in the afternoon.

Of course, the vice president said again and again that he wanted to be a 'tour guide' in person, but Nie Wei directly refused.

But the car is still provided by Gulfstream, and a driver who is about 50 years old is specially arranged, I heard that this is a person who grew up in the city, so he is very familiar with the city.

This Nie Wei didn't refuse, it's quite convenient to have a driver who knows the way.

Less than five minutes after Nie's only motorcade drove out of the Gulfstream headquarters, Cheng Zimo, who was sitting in the co-pilot, suddenly took out his mobile phone and sent a text message.

Soon, the nerves of the bodyguards in several cars were all tense.

"BOSS, there's a car following us. After Cheng Zimo finished sending the text message, he also reported to Nie Wei in time.

"I found out a long time ago. Nie Wei replied with a smile: "It's that Honda, right?"

"You don't have to be too nervous, the other party doesn't plan to hide himself at all, I guess it's a reporter? Driver, is there a café in front, stop the car. ”

"Yes, sir. The 50-year-old uncle's voice trembled a little when he answered, and the conversation between Cheng Zimo and Nie Wei made him think that he was on the wrong track, just like the kind of big scene in a Hollywood blockbuster that was about to happen, but what made him a little frightened was that in Hollywood blockbusters, the driver who pulled the rich man was always the first to be unlucky.

In fact, he was completely overwhelmed, and saw Nie Wei's motorcade parked at the door of a café, and the one followed directly, and then Nie Wei and the others who were sitting in the café saw a white man in a suit and leather shoes walking down from the car, looking about forty years old.

"It's not like a reporter, it's like a salesman. Nie Wei looked at the person from a distance through the window, and came to a conclusion in his heart.

The middle-aged white man who seemed to be a salesman also had a clear goal, and came directly to the café, obviously aiming at Nie Wei, but as soon as he entered the door of the café, he was immediately stopped by Nie Wei's bodyguards.

Looking at the bodyguards in front of him who were wearing white shirts and black suits, tall and b-class, the white man swallowed nervously, and hurriedly introduced himself: "I have no malice, I am a salesman, and I am here to be proud of the Beechcraft company." ”

Hearing this person's self-introduction, Nie Wei raised his eyebrows, and there was another airplane seller?
