Lin Zheng and Tan Na got on the plane. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Benier and George. Clooney and the others hurriedly stood up: "We're talking about Boeing's licensing. β
"This problem?" Lin Zheng nodded, "Sit, sit down, how about it?" β
Naturally, this was said to Benier.
"No problem, International Jet Conversion has been authorized by Boeing to conversion, and the aircraft they have modified can be approved by Boeing." Benier Road.
"That's good news," asked the flight attendant to bring him a cup of black tea, looking at George. Crewe/Ni three, Lin Zheng said straightforwardly: "Mr. Clooney, Mr. Bobby, and Mr. Angie, how much do you know about Boeing's BBJ?" β
Designer Bobby pushed his glasses and said carefully: "Sir, I participated in the design of the BBJ seat part, and my companion ......" He stretched out his finger and pointed at Anji: "Mr. Anji once assisted the chief designer to do some of the actual modification projects. β
Lin Zheng was a little surprised that the relationship between this international jet modification company and Boeing was deeper than he thought, but this made Lin Zheng even happier: "So the international jet modification company knows BBJ very well?" That's great, the BBJ is designed to have a capacity of 63 people, is there a problem if I'm going to lift our plane to 70 people while maintaining a decent level of comfort and configuration? β
"There is no problem," Bobby said without hesitation, "the BBJ is based on the Boeing 737-700, the fuselage length of the 737-700 is 33.6 meters, and your aircraft is a Boeing 737-400 with a fuselage length of 36.5 meters." The fuselage length is 2.9 meters longer than the 737-700, and it is no problem to accommodate 7 more people. Even 10 people are fine. β
"We'll discuss this issue later," Lin Zheng frowned. Then he said: "What I value most is the comfort and range of the aircraft, the international jet conversion company has rich experience in private jet modification, I believe that creating comfort is not a problem for you, but I need my aircraft to reach a range of 8000 kilometers in a fully loaded state, is there a problem with this?" β
Why 8000 km? Because 8,000 is a distance that can directly cross the Atlantic, take off from the middle of the United States, and stop in Hawaii to reach the Republic directly, so Lin Zheng's requirement is at least not less than 8,000 kilometers.
8000 km?
Bobby took out a notebook and calculator to calculate it, and then said to Lin Zheng: "The full load range of the Boeing 737-400 is 4005 kilometers. Assuming that your aircraft is designed to carry 70 people, and the cargo compartment needs to carry a small amount of luggage for the occupants, the range of 7500 kilometers is no problem, but whether it can reach 8000 kilometers depends on the total quality of your entire modification project, but it is not a big problem. β
"Let me ask," Benier, who had been quiet since Lin Zheng came, suddenly asked, "What is the height of the bottom compartment of this plane?" β
"The height of the 737 hold?" Bobby was stunned for a moment, although he wondered why Benier asked this question, but he immediately said: "It should be about 1.8 meters." How? β
Benier didn't answer immediately, but turned his head to look at Lin Zheng and said, "Boss, that's what I think." Since this is our company's business jet, the utilization rate of the cargo compartment is very low, can we install air conditioning system and pressurization system? Placing a portion of the warehouse ...... Approximately 50% or 2/3 of the storage space...... Converted into a sleeping area? β
Hey? Lin Zheng's eyes also lit up: This is a good idea, no matter what kind of private jet it is. The master cabin offers a maximum of two or three beds, while the rest of the room rests on the large plush leather sofa that can be fully flattened. That's not bad, of course, but it's even more beautiful if you have a sleeping area.
Speaking of which, the bottom compartment of the Boeing 737-400 is nearly 30 meters long after all, and it is a serious waste not to use it. Idle is idle anyway, and it seems that it would be a good idea to convert it into a sleeping area?
And the height of about 1.8 meters is enough for most adults to walk straight, you know, in addition to large business jets such as the Gulfstream, the cabin height of most private jets is between 1.4 meters and 1.7 meters.
"How? Can it be changed? Lin Zheng raised an eyebrow and asked Bobby if he was interested in Benier's proposal.
"This ......" Bobby hesitated, but did not dare to give an immediate reply: "Sorry, no one has ever modified it like this before, I need to check with Boeing about the situation and actually calculate the bottom space of the 737-400 before I can give you an accurate answer." β
"Okay, I'll wait for your results," after a deep groan, Lin Zheng continued: "The three of you probably already know the requirements of my request, think about it, and go back and give me a rough offer." β
This is the tone of the statement, but it doesn't matter if it's George. Neither Clooney nor Benier had the slightest intention of objecting...... This is the tone of the statement and at the same time the tone of the command.
George. Clooney nodded resignedly: "Okay, no problem at all." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
When the plane landed at Manila International Airport, the capital of the Philippines, Lin Zheng had already slept beautifully, had a delicious breakfast by the way, and got off the plane, and Zhu Sidi, the chairman of Philippine Airlines, was already waiting at the airport.
Lin Zheng was a little surprised at first by the appearance of Zhu Sidi, but then he was relieved: if it cannot raise 200 million US dollars to repay its debts by September 23, Philippine Airlines will face the fate of being forcibly liquidated by banks, and if it is really forcibly liquidated, Philippine Airlines will become the first airline to be grounded since the outbreak of the Asian financial crisis.
For Philippine Airlines at this time, every amount of money is very precious, and in the face of a super-rich man who can come up with millions of dollars, it is understandable that Zhu Sidi is present in person...... Maybe he had something else in mind.
Zhu Sidi was very enthusiastic, and his enthusiasm exceeded Lin Zheng's imagination, not only helped Lin Zheng book a hotel to stay, but also kindly invited Lin Zheng to attend the dinner held by Philippine Airlines, which will be attended by many senior government officials.
Lin Zheng frowned, and keenly grasped the words in Zhu Sidi's words: "Senior officials of the government? β
It seems that Philippine Airlines has revealed the news of its coming to Manila?
"Yes, yes," Zhu Sidi's head nodded quickly, and he said to Lin Zheng with a smile on his face: "Mr. Domingo, Minister of Tourism, and Mr. Mendras, Minister of Transportation, will also be present, and President Estrada is very happy to hear the news of your arrival, and His Excellency the President will attend tonight's banquet." β
Nima!
At this point, why didn't Lin Zheng know that he had been calculated by the Filipinos?
Lin Zheng has no good impression of the Philippines, a country that has island disputes with the Republic, not to mention that the Philippine people are innocent, and the bad ones are only some of the people in power, so don't those so-called "people" enjoy the benefits?
Was thrown away directly? That's a bit too naΓ―ve.
Frowning, Lin Zheng didn't immediately agree: "Why didn't you tell me in advance?" β
Can I tell you in advance? I told you in advance, can you still come? You Lin Zheng are the most cash-rich billionaire in Asia, how many people are staring at your money...... The truth is this, but you can't say that, Zhu Sidi nodded again and again to apologize for calculating Lin Zheng: "ICQ is the best Internet company in the world, your arrival is an honor for the Philippines, we can't be rude no matter what, we didn't greet you in advance, please forgive me." β
Get! At this point, it's too late to say anything, Lin Zheng looked at Tan Na depressedly, and Tan Na replied with a helpless look: That's the situation, people are clearly calculating you, what else can you do?
"......" didn't answer, Lin Zheng just said lightly: "Let's go to the hotel first." β
What are you kidding, thinking that if you use the president to press me, I'll have to bird, which green onion are you?
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
As a tacit understanding with senior leaders, when he arrived at the hotel, Lin Zheng got in touch with China and told him about the situation he encountered in the Philippines and China.
The domestic meaning is very clear, the president's face still has to be given, no matter what the Philippines means, listen to their meaning first...... For the Philippines to calculate Lin Zheng so much, the country is actually quite annoyed: I know that your Philippines is affected by the Southeast Asian financial crisis, and now you see a master like Lin Zheng with red eyes, but don't we know that the money in Lin Zheng's hand is a good thing?
But it's still that sentence, face! Face!
Since the country said so, Lin Zheng was no longer polite, although he agreed, but he made up his mind, this time he was going to eat, no matter what the Philippine side said, he was vague.
But when it came to the banquet, Lin Zheng found that he had underestimated the appetite of the Filipinos, who were now red-eyed: at the banquet, the Philippine Minister of Transportation and the Minister of Tourism kept detouring with Lin Zheng, testing whether Lin Zheng had the idea of taking over Philippine Airlines, as long as Lin Zheng was willing to take over Philippine Airlines, the Philippine government would do its best to support him.
I rub!
Lin Zheng was frightened by the Filipino's current rush to seek medical treatment: let himself, a person with no experience in the air transport industry at all, take over Philippine Airlines? What exactly do Nima Filipinos think? (To be continued......)
