Chapter 095: Booking a plane

As a result, after the auction, An Feng really sat with the fat man who was just now.

It's not that enemies don't get together.

The venue is in the restaurant on the upper floors of the venue, the style is elegant, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the people who can come in are VIP members, or black gold card holders like An Feng.

Roger was responsible for introducing: "Bob, Bombardier's Vice President of Sales for the Western United States. Bruce, a visionary investor. ”

Bob shook hands with An Feng and said with a smile, "Nice to meet you, Bruce." ”

"Me too." An Feng smiled, as if the price just now had no impact on their friendship at all.

Bob may be broad-hearted and fat, or generosity is the standard for businessmen, and everything that can bring you benefits is God. So he had a good chat with "God", from the collection of clocks to jewelry, the "God" of clocks and watches did not know much, but diamonds, ten Bobs could not compare to "God".

For what? Because he has always been thinking about how to knead diamonds in his hands for the benefit of mankind.

Anfeng's knowledge in this area is integrated into the future, and he has a very in-depth understanding of diamonds, and he can learn for more than half a year to become a diamond appraiser. Bob said with admiration on his face: "Bruce, next time I have the opportunity, I would like to invite you to participate in the gem collection exhibition in our small circle and exchange ideas with each other, are you interested?" ”

"No problem, if you have enough time, I will." Look at An Feng's words, the answer is standard enough, a typical busy business tycoon.

Bob doesn't doubt it at all, of course, business tycoons don't have much time, and they don't have to fly around all day to talk about business?

Then they talked about airplanes.

Anfeng has had several experiences with Bombardier, initially with the Mrs. Sinclair Challenger 850, followed by the leased Challenger 300, and other brands. Bombardier gave him a good overall feel, and in its native Canada, it was regarded as "Canada's version of General Electric".

Bob says in this regard: "Our development in the field of intercontinental aircraft is extremely fast, and the pursuit of range and speed is at the same time as comfort, so you can say that you can move your luxury office into the sky if you want to." ”

Roger moderately commented: "Bombardier is truly capable of excelling in the luxury sector. ”

As a result, An Feng was moved by him, because the other party considered that it was recommended by Roger, the name of the Brulane family is not bad in the circle, and An Feng seems to be a rich man who is not bad for money, Bob appropriately expressed his attitude: You can arrange the order a little ahead.

The ordering of a private business jet is not as simple as buying a helicopter at Anfeng, you can buy it from stock. Business jets first need you to personalize, place an order, and then set up a special team to make it, before and after it is estimated that you will have to wait for three or four years, and when the plane arrives, maybe the daylily will be cold.

Looking at Bob with a sincere face, An Feng smiled and said, "I will give you an answer in two days." ”

"It's okay, top-of-the-line luxury aircraft do need to be carefully considered." Bob also had a smile on his face, and raised his glass to touch An Feng.

……

The day after returning home, An Feng leaned on the sofa and played with the famous watch he had bought at a great price, but he was thinking about other things. Indeed, Bob's words moved him, and he had been planning to buy a plane. Of course, he doesn't have enough money to pay now, but he needs to combine the future.

He has cast such a big net, whether it is to repay the loan or otherwise, as long as there are no natural and man-made disasters, he will definitely make a lot of money and double his worth in more than two years. If you follow the usual way of thinking of Oriental people, it is not cost-effective to wait until you really have money in your hands to think about things to enjoy.

For example, if you have money to book a plane two years later, doesn't that mean you have to wait for another two or three years? But if you order it now, in two years you will have the money, and the plane will almost arrive. Wouldn't that be more efficient? After thinking about it, An Feng felt that it was no problem to make a little money in a short period of time.

So he called Bob and advanced for the future.

In the afternoon of the same day, An Feng appeared at Santa Monica Airport by helicopter and got off the plane to meet Bob, and the plane he arranged had also been parked at the airport. From the outside, it was not a small business jet, Bob asked him to get on first, and An Feng stepped on the gangway to go up, the interior of the plane was luxurious and spacious.

Bob said: "This is the Global 7000 of the Global Express series, an intercontinental aircraft, and its fuselage width is among the highest among competitors in the field. ”

Bob must have done his homework and speculated that An Feng's purchase intention was an intercontinental aircraft, so he directly asked the company to drive the Global 7000 over and do what he liked.

An Feng visited the cabin layout of the plane, the cabin is divided into two parts, the first part is comfortable first-class seats, and the office area, with a soft wool carpet under the feet, and the latter part is the leisure and entertainment area, a set of leather sofas that are enough to seat five people, and there are flat-screen TVs, top audio and other equipment opposite, and the standard toilets and kitchens are designed to be hidden, freeing up enough space.

An Feng sat down in the office area in front, and the seats that are completely comparable to the first class of civil aviation are hand-sewn from leather, which is soft and comfortable, and the floor cushions can also be unfolded for people to lie down. Bob sat across from him, and a flight attendant pulled out the hidden table for them and served them two glasses of champagne.

An Feng enjoyed this top-notch service, he took a sip of champagne and asked, "I have learned about the Global 7000 and the Global 8000, what is the most obvious difference between them?" ”

Bob didn't think about it: "They are both intercontinental aircraft, but the area of the Global 7000 is larger than that of the Global 8000, and in terms of range, the Global 7000 has about 11,000 kilometers, while the Global 8000 can reach 15,000 kilometers, and the price of the two is the same, mainly for customers with different needs." ”

"I prefer to fly far." An Feng looked at the surrounding layout, it was indeed spacious, but there was no way to live far away, more than 10,000 points from California, but more than 12,000 from Texas.

"In fact, the difference between the two areas is not too big, if it is not for the high requirements for details, it is basically impossible to feel." Bob said with a smile.

An Feng had a literal understanding.

When the plane took off, it was able to fly to an altitude of more than 6,000 meters and transport guests to Arizona, which is adjacent to California, smoothly and comfortably. Bombardier has an aircraft manufacturing center in Tucson, which supplies most of the aircraft in the western United States.

In less than an hour, the plane landed on the runway of Bombardier.

Looking out of the porthole, the planes docked on both sides of the airport are not only business jets, but also large passenger planes. After getting off the plane, a Mercedes drove them to the company's office building, where Bob introduced him to a customer leader.

Naturally, Bob, as a vice president, was tasked with managing the company.

The other party was a middle-aged white man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and as soon as he saw An Feng, he enthusiastically stretched out his hand: "Hello, Mr. An, I'm Brian." ”

"Hello, Brian!" An Feng shook hands with him.

After chatting with An Feng for a few words, Bob gave up the space to him and Brian.

Brian warmly invited An Feng to sit down in the office, and the assistant served tea and water. Each customer who orders an aircraft has a dedicated person in charge, as well as a dedicated team to ensure that every individual needs of customers are met. After sitting down, Brian detailed Bombardier's features.

An Feng listened to some introductions, and he already had a direction in his heart, either Global 7000 or 8000, and was more inclined to the latter, but considering the space, he had not observed it on the spot, so he was not sure. Later, Brian got his idea and happily arranged for the vehicle to go to the factory.

In fact, the factory is not far away, but customers generally do not walk.

An Feng is very satisfied with their performance in this regard, so that the distinguished guests are VIP all the way to the end. Bombardier's factory building is very ordinary, boxy like a domestic factory, but a bit high, after all, there are planes parked inside. When the car drove in, the first feeling when I got out of the car was that it was clean, and I couldn't feel the density and congestion of the factory at all.

"This is the No. 3 plant, which is the post-production area, and there is some follow-up work to be able to deliver the aircraft to the customer. ”

An Feng nodded, and Brian pointed to one of the planes and said, "That's the Global 8000 you want to see, and the exterior paint is customized." ”

"Very good." An Feng said.

An Feng stepped on the plane and looked around, although the pursuit of range made it a little smaller, but in fact it didn't feel much difference, unless it was someone who was particularly sensitive to space, and it happened that An Feng didn't have this concept, because every position was more spacious than the first class cabin of civil aviation.

After visiting 7000 and 8000 models in a row, Anfeng decided to go to the Global 8000.

Then there is the personalization that takes several days, and after the plane is built, it is an empty shell inside, allowing guests to personalize within a certain weight range, which means that as long as you have an idea, Bombardier staff can help you implement it, which is the most satisfying for Anfeng, because he wants to put a bed on the plane.

If you fly back to China in the future, if you are too tired, you can lie in bed and sleep beautifully...... Does this feel like civil aviation can be compared? There are other aspects of the design, under the recommendation of the designer, the cabin is divided into two parts, front and rear, the front is the office area, with warm colors, and a few bouquets of flowers will be more warm; At the back, there is a small bar and entertainment area, as well as a queen bed, which requires a deep starry sky overhead.

There is also the exterior painting design, An Feng continues to use the most common, but also the most stylish white, in order to highlight the special, but also add some lines on the fuselage to make it look more elegant...... After the designer showed him the computer drawings and revised some details, it took four days to finally decide to reach an agreement on this style.

The contract stipulates that Anfeng will need to pay a deposit of $3 million upfront, and the entire aircraft will cost more than $70 million. Bob helped him cut into the queue, and it is expected to be completed in two years, and it will be delivered to An Feng after commissioning, and the payment will be settled at the same time.

On the plane home, the burden was a little heavier, except that after more than two years, almost 100 million yuan had to be returned to the bank, and now it was spread out that 70 million yuan was paid for the plane. I found that I can really toss, I haven't been in the United States for a year, and I've done so many things, and there are still two years left, I don't know what else Lu Dao will do.
