The system only arrives when you're old? Then let's create a super-rich family!
Chapter 95 A Money-Eating Beast? Small change!
These words were spoken.
The entire room fell silent for a moment.
Everyone present, including Xiao Hongyuan, had a slight change in expression.
Large flagship business jet?
They had considered it, but they didn't dare to buy it.
The cost of the fuselage alone is no less than 500 million, and the annual maintenance cost is as high as 300 to 400 million. There is also the cost of hiring a professional team, not to mention the fuel cost.
It is said that the cost of a large business jet over twenty years is close to 10 billion, which is terrifying.
Aside from the convenience of daily travel and the status symbol that doesn't bring any real benefits, buying it would be like turning someone into a money-devouring beast.
Everyone present could buy it, but they certainly couldn't afford to keep it, or rather, there was no need to keep it.
Even someone with Xiao Mingyuan's top-tier net worth wouldn't consider a large business jet; his budget would only be for a medium-sized aircraft with maintenance costs of three to four billion over twenty years.
They knew that Huanyu Airlines had a large business jet that they sold, and that it had been reserved the day before yesterday by the Sun family, the wealthiest family in Donghai Province.
All the wealthy people's gazes instantly focused on Qin Zheng, some curious, some skeptical, and some disdainful.
Qin Zheng looked at the aircraft manager, his tone calm yet domineering, "You don't have any large aircraft here. Give me a price."
The sound wasn't loud.
But the news spread throughout the entire VIP room in an instant.
Xiao Hongyuan's hand holding the teacup froze in mid-air, his face stiffening.
The other wealthy people looked at each other in astonishment.
Is this guy serious? Planning to steal the plane from the Sun family? He's just overestimating himself.
Upon hearing this, the aircraft manager was taken aback at first, then looked embarrassed and quickly smiled apologetically.
"Mr. Qin, to be honest, we do have a Gulfstream G700 flagship business jet for sale in our showroom. It's a limited edition worldwide, with a top-of-the-line price of 580 million."
"However, this model is not available for direct purchase by the public."
Qin Zheng raised an eyebrow, his expression displeased.
Seeing this, the manager quickly tried to persuade him, "Sir, the maintenance cost of this large flagship aircraft is extremely high. The basic maintenance cost alone is more than 300 million yuan per year, not including fuel, crew, routes, hangar and other expenses."
"Moreover, purchasing this model requires a dedicated top-of-the-line crew, professional security and medical teams, and the aircraft is equipped with a complete emergency life-saving system."
"As long as the malfunction is not an instantaneous disintegration, a top-notch pilot can maneuver the aircraft to a safe altitude and, with the help of a whole-aircraft parachute and professional skydiving equipment, can maximize the safety of the employer's life; in extreme cases, evacuation can also be carried out through the small escape aircraft on board."
"We conduct regular on-site inspections and simulation training every year to train the team on how to handle crises, ensuring the safety of employers' lives."
"That's why we have to conduct strict verification of the buyer's funds and check whether the buyer has the financial strength to equip a full-service support team. Only if the buyer is confirmed to be a top-tier luxury brand are they eligible to purchase a spot. Otherwise, even if you can buy it in full, we will return it because we are worried that you cannot afford the maintenance, which would cause even greater losses."
He didn't mention that someone had made a reservation, for fear that the customer might have a negative reaction, which would make things even more difficult.
So he only asked for the exorbitant maintenance fee, hoping to discourage Qin Zheng.
These words were spoken.
Several wealthy people felt that Qin Zheng was just ignorant and trying to put on a brave face.
The fraud will be exposed as soon as the funds are verified.
Then the dismissive expression on Xiao Mingyuan's face had long since disappeared, leaving only a solemn look.
If he heard correctly, the manager had just called out "Mr. Qin".
Could it be that guy from Longhu Manor?
Upon closer inspection, he seemed to find the butler beside Mr. Qin somewhat familiar, as if he had seen him before, but for a moment he couldn't quite place where he had met him.
The manager of the airport looked at Qin Zheng, his tone respectful but clearly conveying a polite refusal.
"Sir, I'm really sorry, but the purchase quota for mainframes requires a rigorous verification process, which is very complicated and not something I can decide."
After hearing the reason, Qin Zheng's face remained calm, but his tone was even more domineering than before.
"Ten billion is nothing, just small change."
"It's just capital verification, simple."
He reached out his hand, signaling Lu Cheng'an to hand it over.
Lu Cheng'an stepped forward and instructed, "The chairman of your Huanyu Aviation has a past with me. Just give him a call to inform him."
Upon hearing this, the manager was filled with respect and immediately took out his phone to make a call.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
The call connected.
"Chairman, a customer wants to buy a large flagship phone. He says he knows you. I'll give you a call to confirm."
"Okay, sure."
The manager handed the phone to Lu Cheng'an. "Sir, our chairman would like to speak with you."
Lu Cheng'an answered the phone. "Chairman Zhao, this is Lu Cheng'an. Do you remember me?"
"It's Mr. Lu! Of course I remember. You bought several private jets from our company back then; you were one of our biggest customers, how could I forget!"
Has Mr. Lu found a new employer?
Upon hearing the name Lu Cheng'an, Xiao Mingyuan finally remembered where he had met him before. He had invited Lu Cheng'an to dinner two years ago, and that was when they met.
No wonder I felt like I'd seen him somewhere before, it was him!
If that's the case, then the "Mr. Qin" sitting next to him is most likely the one from Longhu Manor.
After all, in Jiangnan Province today, only the Qin family has the financial resources to maintain a large aircraft.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mingyuan really wanted to go up and say hello, but the timing wasn't right, so he could only suppress his eagerness and wait patiently.
"Yes, I'm lucky. I was fortunate enough to be noticed by the master and barely deserve the position of chief steward," Lu Cheng'an replied with a smile.
[Oh? With Mr. Lu's abilities, judging from your tone, the new master of the house can't possibly be stronger than the Lu family, can he?]
Lu Cheng'an knew perfectly well that the other party was trying to trick him into revealing information, and he didn't fall for it.
"Chairman Zhao, I'm here to discuss the capital verification, not anything else."
But the person on the other end of the phone seemed unwilling to give up.
【Mr. Lu, as you know, procedures are standardized now. If you don't reveal something, it's difficult for me to grant you access, right?】
"My father-in-law acquired the Genting Tower for 70 billion in cash. With the cost of repurchasing the remaining floors, the total expenditure was over 80 billion. There's also a newly registered Zhenshi Group with a registered capital of 30 billion. You can call the high-ranking government officials you know right now to confirm."
boom!
These words were like a thunderclap, not only stunning Chairman Zhao for a moment, but also leaving everyone else in the VIP room speechless with shock.
The entire room fell silent.
All the wealthy men stared at Qin Zheng in shock, their disdain and scrutiny instantly transforming into utter horror and disbelief.
Genting Tower!
That's a landmark building in Jiangnan Province, standing in the heart of the Jinmao Center, a 108-story skyscraper, which this man in front of me actually bought outright!
Seven hundred billion may sound like a lot, but the key point is that he actually managed to persuade the top officials of the Jiangnan Provincial Government to agree to the sale! That's the most terrifying thing.
There is also a group with a registered capital of 30 billion yuan.
Such wealth is beyond their reach!
Wait, Genting Tower also has Zhenshi Group?
Doesn't that mean that this unknown tycoon in front of us is—
The one from Longhu Manor.
Qin Zheng!
The important person they thought they would meet tomorrow actually appeared in the business jet exhibition hall ahead of time!
All the wealthy people were so excited that their breathing became rapid.
If it weren't inappropriate to approach them now, they would have already rushed forward to exchange pleasantries.
The aircraft manager and others were completely stunned, their minds blank, staring at Lu Cheng'an with disbelief on their faces.
The owner of Genting Highlands?
70 billion to buy a landmark, 30 billion to register a group?
Such a person actually came to their World Aviation to buy a private jet. If it's true, then wouldn't they be able to maintain large flagship aircraft at will?
The scene remained silent for two minutes.
On the other end of the phone, Chairman Zhao had already called to confirm that what Lu Chengan said was true, and even his tone was now one of surprise.
Is your homeowner considering purchasing the Taiwanese G700 flagship large business jet?
"Yes, no one has reserved this business jet, right? If they have, knowing my husband's personality, you'll probably be in a difficult position."
Mr. Lu, I'm so sorry, you're absolutely right, this private jet has indeed been reserved.
How about we wait until the delivery is completed in half a month, then order the next one for your employer?
"I'm afraid that won't work. My master wants to buy this private jet today."
