Chapter 391: Expanded, Isn't It?

Hearing that Zhang Chen was interested in private jets, Kerry Smith was even more enthusiastic, took out a stack of hanging window sample books, and began to explain in detail to Zhang Chen various types of private jets, most of which were small private jets under 10 million US dollars. X

As soon as Zhang Chen heard it, he understood that Kerry Smith was selling to himself.

Think about it, private jets, this kind of thing, the audience is too small, in addition to the customers who take the initiative to come to the door, customers who can charter business jets are the largest group of potential customers, these private jet manufacturers to find the captains or pilots of these business jets as salesmen, is indeed the most efficient way.

Most of the managers of these business jet leasing companies have stakes in some private jet dealers and even manufacturers, and they will also be happy to see this happen.

For a salesman, whether it is selling a yacht or a private jet, it is not open for three years, and it is open for three years.

In addition to being a captain on a business jet, Kerry Smith works part-time as a salesman for Maxwell Airlines. Maxwell Aviation is a private jet dealer that represents five or six brands of private jets. Depending on the different needs of customers, different brands and models of private jets are recommended to customers.

"Mr. Zack, what are your basic needs for business jets, such as the number of passengers, range, maximum cruise speed, maximum load, economic fuel consumption, etc., with these data, I can recommend to you in a targeted manner. Kerry Smith said that his mouth was dry, and he picked up water and moistened his throat.

Zhang Chen thought for a while: "The ones you just recommended to me are too small, are there any bigger ones, it is best to have a longer flight range, and it is best to fly directly from the west coast to Huaxia." ”

Kerry Smith laughed and said, "Mr. Zack, from Kyoto in China to the West Coast, the flight is 10,000 kilometers, and no business jet has ever achieved such a long range. The Dassault 2000, which just started commercial flights last year, is only about 7,000 kilometers. ”

Kerry Smith gave Zhang Chen a chart of his voyage and explained to Zhang Chen: "Because the earth is round, when you fly from Huaxia to San Francisco, there are often two routes, one is from Kyoto to the north, through the Bering Strait, through Alaska, and then south to San Francisco, and the other is from the sky over Goryeo, through the north of Dongying, across the Pacific Ocean to San Francisco. ”

"The first route is much closer than the second route, but there are about 10,000 kilometers, plus the amount of safe fuel, at least 12,000 kilometers of maximum range, except for large aircraft, no business jet can achieve such a long range. ”

"Business jets from China to the West Coast often choose to stop once or twice, such as the Dassault 2000 I just mentioned, it only needs to stop once, and most of them will choose to stop in Anchorage, Alaska. Kerry Smith gestured on the route map.

Zhang Chen was silent, and Kerry Smith joked: "If this doesn't meet your needs, you can only buy a Boeing 747 or Airbus A330, but that's already the category of civil aviation, and few people will use it as a business jet, oh, by the way, Air Force One is a 747, haha." ”

Zhang Chen smiled, of course he wouldn't spend $300 million to buy any 747, that would be too wronged.

Bill Gates bought a Boeing 747 as a business jet in later generations, but more often it was used as a business jet for Microsoft Teams, and most of the expensive planes were used to amortize the cost and deduct taxes.

Although Zhang Chen also has a demand for tax deductions, the industry in which Huoxingyuan is engaged determines that the structure cannot be too large, and the best way to buy a business jet is a medium-sized business jet that can fly more than a dozen people, and Dassault 2000 is really good.

Zhang Chen suddenly thought of the Gulfstream, which most of the wealthy people in later generations chose, and asked, "I heard that the Gulfstream is very good, is there an ultra-long-range model?"

Kerry Smith didn't expect Zhang Chen to ask Gulfstream, "Gulfstream? This company is a small company, but the performance of their Gulfstream IV-SP is really good, it can carry about ten people, and the range can now reach about 8,000 kilometers, but the price is too high, almost the same as the Falcon 2000." ”

Zhang Chen asked, "How much?"

Kerry Smith said disapprerovingly: "It's close to 40 million US dollars, in fact, I don't think it's necessary, for example, this Senas Certificate, the price is cheap, less than 10 million US dollars, the performance is not bad, and the transoceanic flight can be set in first class, there is no need to take a business jet." ”

Zhang Chen thought for a while: "Can I get it now? How long is the shortest delivery time, and how much does the deposit need to be paid?"

Kerry Smith didn't expect Zhang Chen to be really interested in Gulfstream IV-SP, this is 40 million US dollars, although the business jet charter is rich people, but being able to afford 40 million US dollars to buy a plane and using 20,000 US dollars to charter a business jet are completely two different concepts.

To be more precise, he didn't really believe that Zhang Chen wanted to buy a business jet from the beginning, and he came to introduce it just because he had dates or not, but he didn't expect that the Asian teenager in front of him really wanted to buy a plane, and he also bought a luxury business jet like Gulfstream.

Kerry Smith's company did not act as an agent for Gulfstream, so Kerry persuaded Zhang Chen not to choose Gulfstream, although Zhang Chen didn't know what the actual situation was, but after all, he had done sales management work for so many years in his previous life, and he didn't understand the little ninety-nine in Kerry's heart, so he just smiled and said nothing.

Before landing, Zhang Chen asked Kerry for contact information, he was going to ask various business jet companies for a round of prices, and then consult Kerry to see if the price was appropriate, if he was fooled by Kerry now, Zhang Chen really lived these two lives in vain.

Zhang Chen has already made up his mind that he must buy a business jet. Business jets are indeed much more convenient than civil aviation, and the flight speed is faster than civil aviation, this time from New York to San Francisco, only a little more than four hours of flight, and it is generally close to six hours to take a civil aviation.

In addition, the waiting time and security check time required by business jets are much shorter than those of civil aviation, and it is generally too late to arrive 20 minutes before scheduled takeoff. If it's your own plane, there's no problem even boarding two hours late. This is indeed a very cost-effective deal for capitalists whose time is money.

The most important thing is that buying an aircraft can be deducted from taxes, the annual depreciation ratio of fixed assets of the aircraft is very high, and this part of the amortized cost is higher than any cost, especially in a company like Tinder, there are not a few people, but the profit is very high.

"You want to buy a plane?" Su Zhuorui looked at Zhang Chen with wide eyes.

"Look at the road, look at the road. Zhang Chen helplessly reminded Su Zhuorui, who was driving, "No, I'll drive, your surprise is too scary." ”

Su Zhuorui cut off: "How long have you been getting your driver's license, is it technical?"

Zhang Chen hadn't driven for so long, and his hands were really a little itchy, so he asked Su Zhuorui to pull over, and the two changed positions.

"Tell me, what do you think? Buy a plane? I think you're inflated, right?" Su Zhuorui still couldn't believe it.

Swelled?Zhang Chen looked at his lower body, it didn't swell?r
