Chapter 515 Auction and Collection
From the moment the Su-27SK wheels wiped the ground, this race with an unexpected ending came to an end.
Seeing Long Yunshun, who was far ahead of his opponent, landing in a plane, it meant that the winner of a contest had been decided, and the spectators who had already come to the runway broke out into a burst of warm applause, and even many American tourists of different skin colors cheered loudly, whistles and cheers came and went for a while.
When it comes to the United States, which has a vast territory and mixed races, the mentality of the people is quite open and peaceful on the whole, and it is not as rigid and self-serving, narrow-minded and distorted as some island countries, which is quite commendable.
And for today's contest, even laymen present will know that as long as they know a little bit about fighters, the Su-27SK is born with a certain gap in speed with models like the F-15C; But now the result of the game is just the opposite, which is enough to show that this Chinese pilot is a real strong figure. Not only that, but it is hard to believe that he actually set a new record for the 1,000-kilometer sprint in this aircraft category with an old Su-27SK in this race officially registered by NAARC!
Of course, Long Yun's unexpected upset made the "flanker" bettors smile, and the tourists who bet on the "eagle" were very disappointed, but now these are not important.
Witnessing this battle that was originally a battle without suspense, but now it has become a "Uranus" fighter for sale propaganda competition, Maxim, who was stunned on the side of the field, was full of frustration, he clenched the Havana cigar in his mouth and hesitated, and waited until Long Yun finished a short on-site interview before finding an opportunity to squeeze forward:
"Young people. Young manβthis gentleman! All right. You win; Then according to our prior agreement. I can buy this 'Flanker'. β
"Oh? - Yes, of course. β
With a subtle sly smile, Long Yun took off his flying gloves for a long time, raised his hand and pointed to the exhibition hall not far away: "Three million knives, right?" You can go to the auction hall and participate in the bidding, but I personally don't think there is any hope of winning the bid at this price. β
"What......?"
Maxim, whose mouth was open in an "O" shape, was obviously surprised by Long Yun's words, and he raised his hands in a hurry and waved them wildly: "But, but we have an appointment first!" If you win the game, I'mβ"
"You can bid three million for this 'Flanker'. Right? You and I agreed that 'you have the right to pay this price,' and we didn't say that we had to sell it to you, right? Whether the deal can be completed in the end or not, then it is not up to me to decide. β
Seemingly very friendly, he grinned at the stunned Maxim, and Long Yun, who said this, strode away with a helpless expression, leaving only the collector who was stunned on the spot was still in a daze; James, who was standing next to him, wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but was scolded by the boss who was in a bad mood.
Think about it, the Su-27SK that flew the best result in the history of the 1,000-kilometer switchback race in the same group at NAARC, and at the same time rarely defeated the F-15C and "Uranus" in the same competition. The value is naturally not the same as that of ordinary retired old aircraft.
An impromptu race brought an outstanding commemorative color to the fighter. The sought-after collection of Cheng dΓΉ is naturally a rising tide; In a matter of moments, collectors from North America and around the world arrived, entered the hall to register and participate in the bidding. These experts in the collection of fighters are well aware that the starting price of $3 million is not very affordable for an old Su-27 fighter; But to say that it is a Su-27SK of the origin of the KnAAPO that has just shown good use and also broke a speed record?
If you only prepare three million dollars, you won't even want to buy it!
Sitting in the crowded exhibition hall, seeing the very lively bidding scene in front of him, Long Yun was very happy to talk and laugh with the tourists who had won the "flanker" and made a lot of money, and by the way, he also took the time to chat with Zhai Qize, who was sitting in the front row.
Different from the previous skeptical attitude, the current Zhai Qize has been completely impressed by Long Yun.
This big boy who has just witnessed a wonderful race has just watched the competition and made a model as a hobbyist before; Convinced of the decision of advanced weapons, he was naturally very impressed when he saw Long Yun's winning experience in piloting the Su-27SK. As a military enthusiast, Zhai Qize is of course well aware of the reality that the Su-27 series fighters are inferior to the F-15 series in terms of speed, but the result of the competition was unexpected, which made him feel that today was really an eye-opener.
Not only that, but noticing a few words of conversation between Long Yun and her brother on the side, Shangguan Li, who was sitting on a folding chair and waiting quite obediently, also felt quite novel, and she asked Zhai Qize when she saw the gap between the two talking:
"Otaku, tell me, isn't it easy for him to win this game?"
"Well, I think it's very difficult. - No, I'm going to download the replay of the race from the official website, and it's ...... that he was able to beat the Eagle in a sprint race with the 'Flanker'."
Triggered by his sister's question, Zhai Qize fumbled out the mobile phone in his pocket, still muttering to himself.
And he didn't know anything about the fighter competition, blinking his apricot eyes, Shangguan Li didn't get any useful information from her brother's words, and it was not clear why these elated and frequently quoted people in front of him would be so interested in the gray plane on the tarmac. So she pestered Zhai Qize to make it clear to herself, and after listening to his explanation, she finally understood that Long Yun had set a new record in the competition just now, which could make the "Flanker" aircraft that was being auctioned sell for at least hundreds of thousands of dollars more; Seeing such a good thing, she naturally clapped her hands very happily, and then looked at Long Yun with a little more meaning in her eyes.
Inheriting her sister's ice and snow intelligence, Shangguan Li, who seems to be innocent, has actually been slightly aware that the relationship between the brother named Long Yun and her sister in front of her is extraordinary; If you look at it with the critical eye of choosing a brother-in-law, at least he is quite good in terms of "ability".
Not to mention, as a long-term relationship with a family, Shangguan Li is very clear about her sister's temperament; As far as her own observation goes, there are really only a handful of men who can make her treat her kindly, or she has never seen one at all.
So...... Is this identity a real thing?
It's no wonder that at dinner yesterday, my mother would say those inexplicable things to my sister, it turned out that it was all for this reason.
β¦β¦
The auction in the hall lasted for nearly ten minutes before the final word was decided.
Avoiding the lively scene at the auction site, and just after a tense and intense thousand-mile attack, Long Yun sneaked to the player's rest area, changed out of the flight suit and put on casual clothes. Just as he sat down to drink saliva and relax, he saw Lei Qiang's sunny and excited look on his face when he walked into the house, and he knew that their Su-27SK was sold at a good price:
"Brother Long, you are too powerful! -- More than 1 million more than 1 million US dollars were sold at once, 4.6 million US dollars! β
"Huh? - So many? β
After returning from the game before, Long Yun also felt that the old SK of "Uranus" should not be sold, but he really didn't expect that it would be at a premium of as much as 50%. As the actual handler of the "Uranus" transoceanic transaction, he is extremely grateful to the "Chenlong" brother in front of him, and he must express it:
"Brother Long, this price depends on you to fly this trip, I didn't say it, you command the account!"
"This ...... This doesn't have to be, why is it so polite? β
Hearing the other party ask about his bank account number, it was clear that he wanted to give money, Long Yun hurriedly waved his hand.
When he said that he was inviting the war before, in addition to thinking about meeting the Yankees who had no one in his eyes for a while, he mainly spent half a month of vacation on the cruise ship and wanted to find an opportunity to take off a real fighter plane for a while, but he didn't think so much about the rest. But after several excuses, Lei Qiang insisted on making the payment very resolutely, and he thought about it again and agreed.
After all, his "Chenlong" and Lei Qiang's new "Uranus" are both domestic aviation competitive teams, if they don't collect this money, it is equivalent to making them owe themselves a favor, and they will inevitably be embarrassed when they meet on the field in the future, which is not good.
After saying this in a few words, Long Yun remembered one of the main players of "Uranus", Bian Chao, who had played against him in the group stage of Group F, I don't know how this young man with good skills and full of momentum is doing now?
Thinking of this, he asked Lei Qiang casually, but the latter looked around mysteriously at no one, and then lowered his voice and spoke:
"Brother Long, I'll just say that when you ask, don't tell anyone else. I also came to 'Uranus' to find out that Bian Chao resigned after the group stage, and I don't know where he went, but there are private rumors in the team that he seems to have been recruited into the military because of the pilot's father, and he went on some secret mission. β
"Oh......?"
Secret mission, is this gossip reliable?
As soon as the word "secret mission" was mentioned, Long Yun's heart moved slightly, and Wang Weiguo's previous interview came to his heart; He walked a little dazed for a while, and then pulled his thoughts back to reality and patted Lei Qiang on the shoulder: "Hehe, it's good that this guy has a whereabouts, I originally wanted to talk to him." - Let's go! It's time for you to get busy with the handover of the auction. β
"Okay! - Brother Long, aren't you busy returning to China? If you have time, enjoy the light and sit with the brothers! β
"Ah, that's easy to say! This time, I must ask for ......" (to be continued......)
