Chapter 418: This guy is rich
Of course, it was impossible to pack a fighter plane. Ye Qing really wanted to have this ability and become a national hero. As soon as the fighter plane landed, a large group of aviation experts on standby at the airport immediately enthusiastically greeted the plane to control it.
"When the plane arrives, you will know it naturally." Ye Qing showed off the mystery.
In fact, Gulfstream’s next-generation flagship model, the G 750, this famous aircraft, had already heard of it when the flight test photos were released three years ago, and he expected to experience it today.
"The plane will definitely not arrive on time." Wu Weiling was confident, she estimated that Ye Qing had confused the time on Atlanta’s side with the time here. Because for more than 10,000 kilometers. The time difference was several hours.
Through the glass of the VIP lounge, they could see the sky above the airport outside, with planes taking off and landing from time to time. Ten o’clock arrived soon, and Ye Qing looked out the window with great interest. Wu Weiling also stared out of the window. She felt it was necessary to teach the big boss about basic aviation knowledge.
Over the airport, most of the take-offs and landings are old Boeing 737 passenger planes, and from time to time there were long-established propeller-lined passenger planes.
Suddenly, there was a roar of turbine engines that were clearly different from these old passenger planes, resounded throughout the airport. The sound of the ordinary passenger aircraft was relatively high, and it was a bit harsh in the ears. But the sound coming now was as deep as thunder, shaking people’s eardrums. This was the roaring sound of a fighter jet flying at high speed. A guy who was shining in the sky with silver light and whose size was significantly smaller than all passenger planes on the ground pierced the clouds and appeared in people’s field of vision.
When it started to dive and land, not only Wu Weiling but also people who could basically see it, all cast their eyes on this peculiar plane that looked like a stretched fighter jet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe nose was sharp, the wings were curved, and the ends are tilted upwards. The most important thing was that there was no engine under the wings. Its engine, like a warthog attack aircraft, was directly carried on both sides of the fuselage at the tail end. If it weren’t for the white civil aviation paint, many people would mistake it for a fighter plane.
"Our special plane has arrived." Ye Qing blinked at Wu Weiling.
The cool shape and peculiar engine layout made Wu Weiling completely speechless. She naively thought that a charter plane was a passenger plane with a few hundred seats, and then the four of them would enjoy the feeling of chartering. Four people, occupying hundreds of seats, a little embarrassing, but it should feel good...
Who knows? There was a cool jet plane flying in the sky that could only be seen in the movies.
The Gulfstream G 750 was the latest flagship business jet has a maximum range of 14,000 kilometers and a maximum cruising speed of Mach 0.94. This speed was close to the speed of sound, far surpassing all commercial airliners on the market. And the maximum range surpasses most international commercial airliners. Of course, it could fly so fast because the Gulfstream G 750 could only accommodate up to eighteen passengers, and its body size was much smaller than those of commercial airliners.
It was a plane that was not designed for the general commercial aviation market at all, but a business jet that only pursued speed and luxury, and positions the customer group at the top of the pyramid. But it had not yet been launched on the market, once released it would bomb the world, and all the top rich men would want to own their own private jets.
We must remember the previous generation flagship Gulfstream G 650 had already taken the highest speed and most luxurious throne among civil aircraft.
There were several long-lasting top celebrities in China who are active on the screen. Because they frequently flew to various places to participate in activities, they often encountered cases of shortage of passenger tickets and got quite annoyed due to the inability to purchase tickets. Because in every trip they were accompanied by multiple people and passengers will be blocked in their seats to chase stars when flying, so some people bit their teeth and bought their private jet. Those planes were all business jets produced by Gulfstream. Of course, they were all G 350, G 450, G 550, these relatively backward models.
China had only one flagship model like the previous generation the G 650. That was the head of China’s second-largest Internet shopping company, and he spent 400 million to buy a jet.
The more advanced and more expensive G 750, China had been unwilling to spend money to customize it.
Of course, this is normal... The different model series launched by the Gulfstream all have the same results.
Far more than Delta Air Lines was able to complete the charter mission only yesterday. Three African airlines and four South American regional airlines all had wanted to grab this order. But the planes they provided were, without exception, ordinary civil airliners with one hundred or two hundred seats.
These airlines were close enough to fly in a few hours. Moreover, the price was low, and it was said that if they were allowed to carry packages to China, the price will be lower. What an international joke.
The president of the Monster Heavy Industry rarely packed an airplane. Could he save money by hiring those civil airliners, and then just like buying a movie ticket that no one cares about the drama, only a few people sat alone among the hundreds of empty seats?
So these bosses laughed and gave up.
Of course, Delta Air Lines, which was twice as expensive as other airlines, successfully grabbed this big order with the recently purchased G 750.
When this cool Gulfstream plane stopped, and the airport refueling truck came to refuel. The black girl who went back and forth told Ye Qing with a smile that the two female medical staff were ready, and his car would also be transported to China Capital Airport by the freighter of Africa World Aviation Company at 3 o’clock tomorrow afternoon. Accompanied by a sweet smile, she asked him there is a long list of service fees waited for Ye Qing to pay.
Wu Weiling took a look at the bill, and suddenly she had a ridiculous idea which was: if there was no accident, and the two medical staff were not accompanying her to save her. She was really sorry for the long list of service charges.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe also thought if the Shenzhou spaceships in the future will launch a space tourism project for tourists, the first person to experience is probably the guy in front of her. Maybe, he will try this kind of spaceship.
At 10:30, when Wu Weiling was in a wheelchair, with two medical staff who were waiting for boarding the plane, she was thinking like this. What will be on this plane?
She also flew in the first class two or three times, but when she got on the plane, she finally discovered how ridiculous the first class was sitting in front of this Gulfstream G750.
Stepping on the thick carpet, Wu Weiling seems to have entered an unknown world. There were no suitcases on the plane, seats with seat belt prompt and multimedia displays that don’t work when you press the buttons.
Stepping on the thick carpet, Wu Weiling seemed to have entered an unknown and misty world. There was no such thing, and only her impression of there was no suitcases to bring on the plane and the seats with the reminder please fasten the seat belt and the multimedia display that didn’t work when pressing the button. There was only the luxury, only heaven luxury.
She sat on a pure white floor, like a long sofa sinking into the clouds. On her left-hand side, there was a solid wood wine cabinet inlaid with crystals that felt as smooth as jelly. On the right-hand side, was a small bar with an assortment of drinks, standing at the bar was a tall and graceful stewardess wearing a sexy uniform. She secretly rejoiced she was a woman; otherwise, she would be confused by the stewardess. On the pure white seat opposite it sat Ye Qing. She glanced at him quietly and found this life-saver with the same face full of enjoyment and curiosity.
"Huh~"
"It turns out that it is the first time I was flying on this high-end plane full of capitalist extravagance."
It improved Wu Weiling’s embarrassment a bit; at least that rich and explosive lifeline like her was the first to sit on this thing.
However, when this guy picked up the phone and called his company.
In the dialogue that took place in the next scene, Wu Weiling once again drew a chasm between the two in her heart.
"Hello~ Help me contact Gulfstream Aerospace and ask them, if I book a G 750 business jet, how long will it take to deliver it?"
Oh my god! Was this guy planning to buy an airplane like this one?
