Reborn Capital Madman
Chapter 0444 This era also has speed
On the surface, Bush's life-long matter was settled a bit hastily, but in fact, both parties must have thought it over clearly, and the Bush family is also satisfied with Laura.
For a person who aspires to enter politics, a friend plays a very, very important role. Among all the past presidents of the United States, except for rare circumstances, their wives are virtuous wives who cannot be ignored.
And Laura can give Bush extra points from various aspects including the lower class people, sects, etc.
After learning that George W. Bush's wedding was scheduled for November, Gao Xian suggested: "How about, while I have time now, I can take Patricia and you can take Laura and travel to Europe together."
Bush was a little moved when he heard this. After all, after getting married, he would not be as free as he is now. What's more, the so-called bachelor party before marriage is also popular in the United States.
Finally, George W. Bush couldn't resist the temptation and decided to go on a trip. This saved Gao Xian the need to spend more time congratulating him on his wedding. When the wedding day came, he could just send him gifts.
After getting the news about traveling to Europe, Patricia was extremely happy.
Although Miss Hester is heavily dependent on Gao Xian due to Stockholm Syndrome, and it is not an exaggeration to describe her as a submissive little slave girl, and she does not care about her relationship with Gao Xian that cannot be made public on weekdays, she is not interested in this kind of trip.
The wedding arrangements must have a sense of ritual satisfaction in your heart.
The idea put forward by Gao Xian was naturally Gao Xian's insistence that he be responsible for the creativity, and the transportation method from the United States to Europe was to take the famous Concorde.
Last year, in 1976, Concorde officially entered commercial operation.
However, the Concorde, which was originally planned by British Airways and Air France to operate the peanut stew route from London, England, Paris, France to New York, the United States, encountered strong opposition in the United States. Many environmentalists and middle-class residents of New York and peanut stew
A massive "anti-Islamic airliner movement" was launched, and the U.S. Congress decided to ban Concorde from landing in the U.S., temporarily bringing the transatlantic route business coveted by Britain and France into a deadlock.
Fortunately, when the east is not bright, the west is bright, because the world oil crisis that broke out before has made many countries with average financial resources become extremely rich with oil resources. Therefore, Middle Eastern countries including Bahrain, Latin America including Brazil and Venezuela
The country gave Concorde a warm welcome.
As a result, when Concorde was officially put into commercial operation in 1976, it successively opened three routes: London, UK to Bahrain in the Middle East, Paris, France to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Paris, France to Caracas, Venezuela, and even London, UK.
The route to Singapore in Southeast Asia will also be opened at the end of this year.
Seeing that Concorde was really starting to attract passengers, the United States' attitude began to soften, and the U.S. Department of Transportation agreed to provide Concorde with a 16-month trial operation period in order to evaluate the noise and other impacts produced by the Silk Road Airliner.
Therefore, during the trial operation period from last year to this year, British Airways and Air France each opened routes to New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport and Dulles International Airport.
However, the protectors of local interests in the United States are indeed very powerful. The New York City authorities did not hesitate to go against the federal government and issued a ban banning Concorde from landing at JFK Airport. It was not until the U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled that Concorde could finally come to New York.
As the trial operation period came to an end, British Airways and Air France specially sent a Concorde without passengers to New York, held a grand press conference, and launched various public relations. The effect was also very good. The media reported it and the public gradually
Eliminate doubts.
George W. Bush was also very interested in flying the Concorde. He couldn't wait to pack his bags with his fiancée Laura and meet Gao Xian and Patricia in New York.
Since Concorde has not been officially put into commercial operation for a long time, British Airways and Air France have not yet fully understood the business model. Therefore, the current fare of Concorde is only 20% higher than the first-class fare of ordinary passenger aircraft.
, about more than 3,000 US dollars, less than 4,000 US dollars.
As a result, the time to cross the Atlantic Ocean was greatly shortened, from the original seven and a half hours to eight hours, to about three and a half hours.
When the Concorde plane that Gao Xian and his group took landed at London Heathrow Airport, George W. Bush touched his belly and joked: "I feel like I haven't finished digesting my lunch yet."
Gao Xian laughed. Compared to this era, the experience of flying on the Concorde was still very comfortable and fresh enough. Even he was no exception, because in the "old script", the Concorde had the only air crash in 2003.
After that, it withdrew from commercial operations, and the ticket price at that time was almost 10,000 US dollars, which was not affordable for the general public.
From Gao Xian's personal point of view, this era needs more degrees, and he has a good impression of Concorde.
Think about it, when the financial business gets really busy, it will only take half a day to reach the City of London from Wall Street in New York. How convenient it will be!
If the Concorde can fly to Asia from these two global financial centers, and it is not expected to directly reach cities such as Hong Kong and Tokyo, as long as it can reach Singapore, then for those who are interested in the global financial market, there will be no concept of time difference.
Unfortunately, the commercial operation of Concorde is not destined to be so smooth.
The British side is very lively, because this year marks the 25th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne. The official has a series of political activities aimed at wooing the members of the Commonwealth, and the business community is also willing to do so despite the overall sluggish economic situation in the UK.
, make money from the celebrations.
Gao Xian is not short of money. Naturally, he doesn’t have to spend money to enjoy things like ordinary people do. He can be as comfortable as he likes.
Playing is also a form of communication, and Gao Xian asked Prince Charles out by the way.
The high-profile stage of the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne is in June this year, so Prince Charles is not that busy now. After a gentle flirtation, he took his girlfriend with him to form the third couple and joined the tour group.
At this time, George W. Bush's eye for choosing a wife became clear. Laura did not get emotional because of the impurity of this trip, and even helped George W. Bush develop contacts.
When traveling in Europe, apart from the UK, France and Italy, which are often associated with words such as romance and art, are also indispensable.
It wasn't until someone from the Bush family urged him to return that Bush reluctantly ended his trip and boarded the Concorde flight back to the United States with Laura, carrying a lot of significantly more luggage.
Gao Xian sent Miss Hearst and Bush and Laura away together, then returned to Xiangjiang to do his own business.
