Chapter 533 Boeing 747-8VIP (seeking monthly ticket)
The Airbus a380 is the world's largest passenger plane and is known as the "big mage" in the air.
How big is this plane?
Just a simple data you can understand that this plane can carry 960 passengers and sail 16,000 kilometers!
In other words, you can fly directly from Xiangjiang to New York!
You can get there directly anywhere in the world!
Just such an airplane was transformed into a private airplane...
Alvaleid, the world's wealthy oil prince, owns $31.2 billion in property and has three private jets, including the A380, Boeing 747 and Airbus 321.
The decoration of each aircraft is very luxurious and luxurious, but the most eye-catching is the world's largest and most luxurious private aircraft A380, worth $500 million.
With the huge dollar exchanged for oil and his outstanding personal business acumen, the oil prince Alvaleid lives an extremely luxurious life. He is known as "Buffett of the Middle East", and ranked eighth in the world with a net worth of US$20.3 billion in the 2006 Forbes magazine's evaluation, and the first in the Middle East.
According to Prince Alvaleid's request, more than 900 seats on the plane were removed, with a total construction area of about 3 tennis courts, and was eventually transformed into a "Flying Palace".
It is reported that there are three floors inside the "Flying Palace" and are connected to the prince's private elevator through a luxurious and fashionable spiral staircase.
The luxury experience starts from the boarding time: the car is directly on the plane and parked in the garage on the plane. You read that right, there is a garage on this plane...
This is also to facilitate Prince Alvaleid to bring his beloved sports cars when flying around the world!
The elevator parked on the airport runway, and welcomed the VIPs' red carpet, and was illuminated with gorgeous lights to "create an Oscar-like appearance atmosphere."
The abdomen of the plane was transformed into a leisure area, including a Turkish bath. This Turkish bath is set with natural marble and the marble slab is only 2 mm thick to reduce weight.
Next to the hammam is the viewing house. The floor and walls are transformed into huge screens to show the views of the ground. Passengers can stand on this "magic carpet" to enjoy the scenery of the entire journey, and there are waves of fragrance blowing into the house from time to time.
Three-storey spiral staircase and Prince's private elevator provide direct access to the meeting room and Prince's private living area.
In the conference room, there is a huge touch screen, which allows 4 people to use the huge electronic screen on the ground at the same time, allowing you to see the flying ground scenery.
In addition, there is a professional concert hall placed in the huge Triangle Steinway piano, which can accommodate 10 people.
The designer said that the Saudi prince’s request was to create a “palace in the sky” full of Arab style.
The owner's private area has five suites, including a royal bed, entertainment system and prayer room. There are computer-generated prayer mats in the prayer room, always facing the direction of the holy city of Mecca.
The most personal decoration on the plane is also the "oasis leisure room" designed according to the requirements of Prince Alvaleid, a tent with the style of the Bedouin, an ancient Arab nomad. Large velvet curtains hung from the ceiling of the leisure room, low tables on the ground, soft silk cashmere cushions scattered around, and desert landscape paintings made of optical fiber substances on the walls.
Environmentalists and politicians have accused the Saudi prince of luxury, but he still has some excuses, saying: "Wealth is a blessing. If wealth is used correctly, it is neither waste nor abuse."
Since you can afford such a expensive aircraft, Prince Alvaleid is naturally no problem for later operation and maintenance. Although it is not clear about its precise flight cost, the flight cost of its competitor Boeing 747 is for reference - the cost per hour of flight exceeds 5,000 pounds, which is almost 10,000 US dollars!
Although it is only ranked second in the rankings, it is definitely the undisputed number one in terms of luxury!
The number one aircraft in the ranking is a Boeing 767-300 model aircraft. The space of this aircraft is obviously not as good as that of the Airbus a380, and its internal space is only about half that of the Airbus a380.
The reason why it is ranked first is that the owner of this plane pays more attention to personal safety...
Abrazmovich, the top rich man from Eastern Europe.
He asked the private jet to enjoy the same level of security as the President of the American President. You should know that the security of Air Force One is not just a saying. There are various black technologies in it, and these security guarantees are more expensive than aircraft, so this private jet spent a total of 1 billion US dollars.
If these security equipment are removed, the actual value of this aircraft is not as expensive as Prince Alvaleid's Airbus A380.
...
As for what kind of plane Wang Ye wants to buy, he has already decided that he will not buy the Airbus A380 or Boeing 767. He is interested in a new plane.
That is Boeing’s newly launched 747-8 vip!
This aircraft has not been purchased by anyone as a private aircraft, but it is said that the current Air Force One in the United States is about to be retired and the one to be purchased is this Boeing 747-8 VIP model!
Wang Ye is going to take the plane ahead of the United States and get the first to take down this plane.
However, the cost to be paid is also extremely high.
The personalized Boeing 747-8 The VIP private jet is priced at about US$403 million, about RMB 2.53 billion. It also has basic flight functions and does not even have paint. Naturally, there is no furniture inside. You have to go to the later private customization.
Of course, the interior space of this aircraft is also huge, with a total of 450 square meters!
It is like the area of a luxury house, which is not much different from the area of Wang Ye's house in Pengchengwan No. 1...
If you want to buy this kind of plane, you won’t be able to get it immediately. You need to place an order to customize it.
If someone is waiting in line, I really don’t know how long it will take to wait.
However, just leave this matter to Susan. Boeing is from the United States, and Citi is even more powerful in the United States. Maybe it can be a team or something. Customers can still enjoy this convenience.
So, Susan's first task after serving as Wangye's private financial consultant was to contact Boeing and customize a private jet!
This made Susan a little excited. Since she entered the industry, although she has often dealt with top rich people, and the customer she served on her last person was also a top rich man.
That was a rich man in America, a woman, who was a little older. When Susan took over the job of serving her, the client was already over seventy.
As for why susan doesn't continue to serve her now, of course it is because the rich female tycoon has passed away...
When dealing with superior customers, susan gradually adapted to the consumption habits of top wealthy people.
Of course, the wealth of the female rich man is far inferior to that of Wang Ye, and the customer named Bilena has a total net worth of more than 3 billion US dollars.
Although it is much worse than Wang Ye, it is more than 3 billion US dollars!
Not to mention a handful of people in the world who can own this wealth, there are no more than a thousand!
In the United States, this net worth can rank among the top 100.
Susan just joined the company and was able to get the opportunity to serve such a wealthy person. It can be regarded as the best choice among the best, which also proves Susan's excellence in another aspect!
Bilena also owns a private jet. Older rich people are often willing to spend money...
Her private jet, the same model as the one that Wang Ye is now, is Gulfstream g550.
Susan has also taken several times and has known the luxury of private jets.
The Gulfstream G550, worth only tens of millions of dollars, is so luxurious that it is. Now Wangye is going to buy a Boeing 747-8 vip, so there is no need to think about it. This is the most expensive private jet in the world at present!
Generally, when buying such expensive items, customers need to conduct repeated inspections, test flights, and experience them.
But Wang Ye is different. This is his habit. Once he decides to buy something, he will not waste too much time on this matter, and will not even come forward by himself. He will just let his subordinates buy it!
Just like this time when he bought a private plane, he was too lazy to fly to Boeing to discuss it himself, but instead handed the task to Susan and entrusted her with full authority to handle it.
To be honest, what if you go to Boeing yourself, go to test flights, and negotiate prices?
As an aircraft, only two major companies in the world can provide such large aircraft. If you don’t choose Boeing, you can choose Airbus. It can be said that there is basically no choice.
Moreover, the Boeing 747-8 that Wang Ye is interested in this time VIP is considered the latest model and the technology is also the most advanced. If he doesn't buy this, he can only choose Airbus' a380.
Wang Ye is also a "beauty party". He really doesn't like Airbus's large and bulky aircraft. It looks a bit...silly.
The Boeing 747-8 Vip is different. Although Wang Ye has never seen the actual aircraft of this model, he has seen high-definition pictures and videos. The design concept of this aircraft is a bit like a supercar style, the fuselage is slightly streamlined, and the overall look is very fashionable and cool!
It is the style that Wang Ye likes, so it became his first choice.
As for the price, it is only a few hundred million US dollars. If Wang Ye comes forward to negotiate the price personally, it will be a bit disgraceful.
Besides, it may not be better for him to talk to him than Susan. After all, behind Susan, not only is he, the world's top rich man, but also has the giant Citibank. Even if he doesn't give him face to Wang Ye, he should give Citi a little face.
...
After susan took over the task, he immediately started to act.
