Chapter 434: Keeping an Airplane?

"Boss, do you want to keep a plane to play?"

Dong Xiuwen tentatively said: "A single aircraft costs 20 to 30 million US dollars is not too expensive, but it is a bit of a pitfall for maintenance of six to seven million US dollars a year."

Chen Feng was stunned. Don’t say anything, you can really consider this.

I once read a report that in 2004, a Zhejiang businessman took civil aviation to Singapore to watch the air show at his own expense. Seeing that the European and American bosses who came by private jets were all taken to the VIP room by a dedicated person, and he could only wait aside?

I directly spent 60 million to buy a private plane called Prime Minister One!

Therefore, it became famous, and some people even came to discuss business because they had a private plane.

What Rolls-Royce and Bentley to buy?

It takes more than two hours to drive, just take a plane!

"Li Ka-shing, Liu Qiangdong, Wang Jianlin, and Guo Taiming are all fans of Gulfstream." Dong Xiuwen smiled and said, "The first plane Bombardier delivered in China is said to be Uncle Benshan."

"Under his leadership, Bombardier has gained popularity. Currently, there are more than 100 Bombardier business jets, accounting for one-third of the entire business jet market."

"Gulfstream is the favorite of Silicon Valley celebrities. Bill Gates and Musk are all users of Gulfstream G650. The same is true for Liu Qiangdong and Guo Taiming in China. This aircraft is currently the largest, fastest and most expensive private jet on the market."

"Wang Jianlin, Jack Ma, and Li Ka-shing are all fans of Gulfstream. In 2017, Apple's CEO Cook was forced to own his own private jet."

"This is the face of the company!"

Chen Feng laughed silently. When two bosses who were not familiar with before needing to negotiate a business of hundreds of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, if both parties have private jets, it proves that both parties are not inferior in strength?

Private jets are like credit endorsement to Chinese bosses, because when manufacturers sell planes to customers, including when banks provide financing loans to customers, they will investigate the customer’s background.

For some wealthy people, private jets already represent the corporate image. The reason why they spend money to buy airplanes is to create a symbol of strength for the company.

Are you a real estate owner?

Is there a private jet?

Are you playing the Internet?

How many planes are there?

"As long as you can afford it, you can buy whatever you want." Dong Xiuwen teased: "After all, there are only a few places that can be parked in Beijing. Everyone is neatly placed together, and who is older and who is smaller is clear at a glance, right?"

"You can't say that the big ones are really good. The flight distance is long and the cabin space is large. I believe that if you see two drivers there at the same time, who will think that the big ones are better, and the small ones don't want to go up."

"Don't worry if you are expensive. Flying at a very high altitude latitude, there is no second option at this time. The bigger the safer the more engines, the better."

"If you want to buy new ones, don't consider second-hand goods!"

Chen Feng said curiously: "Why?"

Dong Xiuwen quickly took a sip of tea and explained: "If you buy a new plane, if you are lucky, you may have a current plane, otherwise the delivery cycle may be 5 to 12 months, or even as long as 24 months. Especially when buying a more popular plane, it usually takes about 10 months to receive it."

"But domestic rich people are not short of money. Foreigners like to buy second-hand ones. They all spend money on the biggest and best new phones. Is it a bit like buying a second-hand one..."

Chen Feng nodded, don’t say it, it’s really a bit low!

I've bought private jets to show off.

Why are you still keeping a low profile?

"Can you access the Internet, the size of the conference room or living room and the interior, even the material of the carpet, the color of the sofa..."

"Last time I had a dinner and chatted with Gulfstream China Ceo, he said that if you want, you can find BMW or Hermes to customize the interior!"

"The down payment can be reduced to 30%, but we shouldn't have to do it, right?"

You can't say anything, Chen Feng was really moved after hearing this!

Actually, I have considered that the aircraft is OK, after all, it is a large item and has high-tech content, mainly because it is too terrible to maintain it.

It accounts for about 5% of the purchase price every year, and it will cost 60,000 yuan to maintain it if it does not fly at a time.

If you fly frequently, the cost of fuel and ground may cost more than 20 million!

If a first-hand private jet is expensive, the holding cost is about 5% of the purchase price. If it is a second-hand mobile phone, or some helicopters that may cost millions, the proportion is about 10% of the purchase price.

Private jets are a barometer of the rise and fall of the industry to some extent. The wind is changing and the wealthy are changing, so the groups who buy planes are different.

At the beginning, I must have been a real estate boss, then an Internet boss, and then I gradually became a boss of a pharmaceutical company...

When P2P was in full swing, Lei’s Yizubao and Tuandai.com bosses have bought private jets, and Zhang Zhenxin of Netcom Group even bought four at once. Anyway, the money is easy to come, and it’s not wasteful!

Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said, "Let me find someone to talk!"
