Chapter 1100: Yin Gongzi

"Many people think that a sailboat has no engine and only runs on the wind and is slow, but it is not, like this powered sailboat, equipped with independent engines, which can reach a top speed of 14 knots and a cruising speed of 12. 6 knots. The account manager is explaining the performance of this power yacht, "Usually sailboats over 6 to 7 meters are equipped with engines, small sailboats with external engines, medium to large sailboats with built-in engines. The engine is used when entering and exiting the docks, but also when there is no wind, and sailboats can reach speeds of up to 10 knots per hour when traveling on the engine. Professional competitive sailing boats can reach speeds of up to 40 knots per hour, and the speed has a lot to do with the experience of the sailor, the wind direction and the wind speed. The world circumnavigation record holder is 50 days, 16 hours, 20 minutes and 4 seconds, set in 2005 by French sailor Bruno Peyron. ”

"Traveling around the world in 50 days, and still relying on a sailboat, is really good!" When Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but praise it.

He remembered watching a Verne movie "Around the World in Eighty Days", when the protagonist was riding a boat, riding a horse, and riding a car, and it took him 80 days to return to the same place.

"There has also been a big improvement in terms of technology, taking into account the comfort of cruising, as well as the predictability and ease of sailing requirements of the boat, and the design of a high-performance hull and a long overhang." A crew member next to him said casually, "This ship uses a lot of modern new materials, new processes, and new equipment, which can improve efficiency and the performance of the two-masted structure, and make it easier to operate in navigation." ”

According to them, as sailing becomes more and more convenient, in countries where sailing is more common, many ordinary people are able to participate in the competitive sport of sailing, for example, in France, about sixty percent of the owners of private enterprises have their own sailboats and can operate their own sailboats.

"The usual course for sailing practice is about a week, and the average person can learn the basic operation in a week." The account manager introduced.

The account manager also said that there is no need to worry about safety, because the bottom of the sailboat has a stabilizer plate of more than 2 meters, weighing several tons, which can play a good role in balancing the hull, and the design of the sailboat hull is like a tumbler, even if a good sailboat is upside down in the water, it can automatically stand up, and it is impossible for a yacht to do this.

It is not safe for a yacht to go to sea on a windy and rough day, and a good sailboat can withstand winds above level ten.

At this time, there were footsteps outside, but someone had already entered the cabin.

When Lin Xiao looked up, he saw a young man with a little colorful hair, with a few companions of similar age, walking in from outside, and behind them, there was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties, with no expression on his face.

It's just that Lin Xiao glanced at it, and found that the middle-aged man seemed to have practiced kung fu for a few days, and the whole person seemed relatively calm, although he was on a sailboat and barefoot, he was not vain at all, and he was as stable as Mount Tai.

"Manager Xu, why do you casually take people on my boat?" When the young man saw the account manager with Lin Xiao and the other three people, he immediately asked with some annoyance.

Lin Xiaoxin said, it turned out that the owner of the ship was here, no wonder he was so angry.

"Yin Gongzi, the ship has not been delivered yet, it is clearly written on the contract that before the ship is delivered, everything will be taken care of by us, including some promotional activities of our club." The account manager didn't look worried at all.

After all, they run this kind of luxury sailing business, and it is impossible to say that they have no background and no strength.

Even if he took someone to visit the sailboat and was touched by the owner, he had nothing to worry about, after all, as he said, the ship has not yet been delivered, so the ship is still from their club, and the account manager will bring people up to visit and promote the club's business, which is not a big deal.

"This is the new model of your club?" At this time, the young man with colorful hair suddenly saw Concubine Han and Han Ya who were following Lin Xiao, and couldn't help but light up.

"Yin Gongzi, you misunderstood, these are Li Sheng's friends, and they specially ordered me to accompany them to pick a top-of-the-line luxury sailing ship." The account manager saw that the young man was a little misunderstood, and quickly explained.

The main consumer group of sailboats, naturally, is these super-rich, just looking at the Yin Gongzi's family can afford such a luxurious power sailboat, you know that their family is very valuable, and these sons basically have nothing to do every day, and it is definitely not okay to have no place to vent their energy, so finding a woman is what they young people are most keen to do.

This Yin Gongzi is naturally also a frequent visitor to the party.

Especially as a sailing club, it is inevitable that some beautiful models will often be invited to come over to help shoot promotional pictures, so they have a lot of beauty resources in their hands.

In other words, the sailing club also indirectly plays a role as an intermediary, often introducing customers to sons who want to find women, or models who want to fish for kaiko.

Naturally, this Yin Gongzi is also one of the big customers of the sailing club.

It's just that today's situation is indeed a little different, this Lin Sheng is not an ordinary person, not to mention rich, he is still an official in the mainland, especially worth mentioning, he is a customer specially introduced by Lin Chaoren, this account manager doesn't care what he says casually, in case he offends these people and causes trouble, it is not easy to explain it to Li Chaoren alone.

"Li Sheng, which Li Sheng?" Yin Gongzi didn't seem to listen to the account manager's words at all, his eyes at this time were only staring at Concubine Han and Han Qi, obviously he was even more amazed by the appearance of the two beauties.

"Of course it's Li Chaoren Li Sheng." The account manager reminded.

"Superman Lee...... Sizzle...... "The Yin Gongzi with colorful hair came to his senses and couldn't help but gasp.

The customer who was able to be introduced by Li Chaoren in person is obviously not a person without a background, especially what the account manager said just now, which is also more weighty, and it seems that people want to order a more luxurious power sailboat.

What does this mean, that means that people not only have connections, but also money!

"A few bosses are very angry, they shouldn't be locals on Hong Kong Island, right?" Yin Gongzi asked.

"Those from the mainland, come and buy a boat." Lin Xiao nodded.

The sudden appearance of this Yin Gongzi greatly reduced Lin Xiao's interest, so he said to the account manager, "Manager Xu, since we have finished reading it, then let's go back, according to the situation mentioned before, place an order." ”

"Okay, that's the price." Manager Xu was overjoyed when he heard this, although he had met a lot of cheerful people before, but it was indeed a rare situation that a sailboat of two or three hundred million dollars could be completed so quickly.

Although the price of the sailboat is very high, the profit in it is also considerable, especially for managers like them, and the remuneration from it is not low, hundreds of thousands of dollars is no problem, which is indeed a very rich income.

"Price is not an issue." Lin Xiao smiled and said, "It's just that I want to order three of the same sailboats, whether I need to give a discount, you can do it." ”

As soon as he said this, several people present gasped when they heard it.

If Yin Gongzi thought that these mainlanders might not have such a big confidence before, now he is really surprised to hear it, after all, buying three powered sailboats in a row, even if it is their model, it will cost 50 or 60 million US dollars, if it is really like what Manager Xu said, they are planning to buy more luxurious power sailboats, then it will cost hundreds of millions of dollars?

The local tyrants in the mainland are of course squandering money!

"Buy three-strips? One of our three sisters? When Han Qi heard this, he asked happily, "That's good, I think it can be placed in different places, so it's very convenient to go to sea to play." ”

"Yes, that's what it means." Lin Xiao nodded and affirmed, "But there is one thing Manager Xu still needs to contact on his behalf, on this ship, it is necessary to reserve space for the installation of super batteries, the specific space volume, I will ask someone to give you the parameters, most of the space saved, to help me transform it into a storage room or something, as for the space on the upper and middle floors, it can be completely made into a bedroom or dining room, bar or something." ”

"There is no problem with this, as long as it is the customer's request, we can try our best to ensure that it is done, unless it is not guaranteed in terms of technology and safety performance, we will refuse." Manager Xu agreed, in his opinion, this matter is really not a big deal, it is nothing more than a little personal custom request from the customer.

After all, the users of sailboats are of course local tyrants, but this reputation is the shipyard's, and the shipyard will not mess up their reputation for some unreasonable requests from the other party.

"That's good." Lin Xiao nodded, and then walked out of the cabin with his hands behind his back.

Concubine Han and Han Qi also followed him and went ashore.

Yin Gongzi looked at the backs of the three people, couldn't help but tilt his head, and then said to the middle-aged man, "Uncle Ling, check their backgrounds and see who they are?" ”

"What do they do?" The middle-aged man asked with some hesitation, "I don't think these mainlanders are easy to match, so there's no need to provoke them, right?" ”

"It's not a provocation, who called them rich?" Yin Gongzi said ruthlessly.

"Okay, do you want to talk to the master?" The middle-aged man nodded, then asked again.

"There are too many things to do, so there is no need to tell him some things." Yin Gongzi replied.
