Hearing Xue Chen's counter-offer, Will, as an intermediary, felt bad. What was going on? The seller deliberately offered a low price, and the buyer paid a better price? Can it still be a good deal?
.
Hearing Xue Chen's counteroffer, the middle-aged man next to Andy was a little surprised. He thought that the other party would agree directly or lower the price further, but he actually took the initiative to increase the price by 20 million US dollars.
, 20 million US dollars is not a small amount.
Andy naturally refused to agree. Seventy million US dollars was considered a normal selling price, and she planned to thank Xue Chen through this transaction.
The two people had a discussion about the price, and finally gave in and decided to sell the deal for US$60 million. Both of them were in a good mood.
Neither of them likes to procrastinate. After agreeing on the price, they immediately signed the contract and completed a series of procedures. With Will, a professional, everything was done in just half a day. Xue
Chen paid 60 million US dollars and got this carefully decorated Bombardier Global 7000 business jet.
It was already afternoon, and Andy said regretfully that she would attend a banquet in Washington tomorrow and needed to get there today, so she could not invite Xue Chen to have dinner with her or continue to do other entertainment.
Xue Chen said it didn't matter: "If it weren't for me, maybe you would have arrived in Washington. I think it's better like this. You can continue to use this plane."
"Then, okay." Andy did not refuse Xue Chen's kindness, otherwise she could only take a civil airliner, and she was carrying seven or eight people, which was very inconvenient, so she told Xue Chen that when she arrived in Washington
, the plane will fly back and land again at this airport.
Finally, Andy invited Xue Chen to attend her twentieth birthday dinner next month.
Xue Chen and his group stood by the airport, watching the plane taxi for a distance on the runway and then suddenly fly into the sky. Xue Chen could faintly see Andy waving at the window.
"This plane is better than the one from the Eka Group. Xue, don't be stingy in the future and lend it to me." Andrew joked with a smile.
Xue Chen smiled and said: "No problem, but you have to pay for the gas."
Amanda on the side also smiled lightly.
"Oh, I forgot, who is this Miss Andy?" Andrew touched his chin and asked curiously, which group business family eldest lady is she? It is certain that she must be very unusual.
"Uh." Xue Chen scratched his head and really stopped him from asking. Speaking of which, he only knew the girl's name was Andy, but he didn't know the specific name. He also felt that he was too careless and forgot to ask.
.
At this time, Will, who had always been quiet, whispered: "The signed contract has the name of the lady, Andy Carnegie."
Xue Chen had no reaction, but Andrew's eyelids twitched: "Carnegie, is she a young lady from the Carnegie family?"
Before Xue Chen could think about it, Andrew said it directly. The Carnegie family he was talking about was the famous steel kings around the world.
"My father's idol is Mr. Andrew Carnegie, and he hopes that I can learn from Mr. Andrew Carnegie's noble character and outstanding business acumen in the future, so he gave me the same name."
Xue Chen is naturally no stranger to that steel king. In a sense, he is one of the foreign celebrities known to all people in China, young and old. There are also many famous sayings that are still circulating, one of the most famous ones is
, there is nothing better than "It would be a shame if a person dies with huge wealth." So, before his death, this old man donated all his life savings, which is equivalent to the wealth of the world's richest man.
.
"It shouldn't be wrong, I think there is something wrong." Andrew rubbed his hands, "I remember Miss Andy invited you to her birthday party, right? Remember to inform me, I want to go see it too.
look."
"Okay." Seeing Andrew's looking forward to it, Xue Chen felt a little confused. "I remember reading some books. Didn't it say that Mr. Carnegie donated all his savings to his descendants?
He still looks very wealthy."
And not just ordinary rich, but extremely rich.
Andrew was not surprised and said that it was indeed true. Andrew Carnegie had a very noble character and donated all his assets, but he left behind countless intangible wealth. For example, the descendants of the Carnegie family have been well-received.
Due to their excellent education and family influence, they also have high business acumen.
Coupled with the connections left by Mr. Andrew Carnegie, and the respect that many people have for the Carnegie family, they will be very willing to do business with the Carnegie family, and naturally they can earn huge wealth again.
"That's it." After listening to Andrew's explanation, Xue Chen roughly understood that although Mr. Andrew Carnegie donated all his family wealth, what he left to the Carnegie family was his noble character and reputation. With these
, the descendants of the Carnegie family have once again stood at the top of the pyramid.
Although there were some minor twists and turns in the process, the result was still good. I successfully bought a private jet, and it was much better than expected.
Now that the plane has been purchased, it also brings some more considerations. It is impossible to fly the plane by itself where it is placed. It must be driven by someone, so it is necessary to hire a pilot.
But Xue Chen’s idea is that he can hire pilots in the early stage, but he doesn’t plan to continue doing so. If it’s convenient, he plans to get a private jet pilot’s license himself!
It's just that these things have to be done step by step and cannot be completed in one or two days.
On the second day, the plane flew back from Washington and landed at the airport again.
"Congratulations, this plane is completely yours." Looking at the pure white plane parked at the end of the runway, Andrew patted Xue Chen on the shoulder, "You can also make some modifications according to your own preferences, such as some of the interior
The layout and equipment, as well as the color of the plane's exterior, all you need to do is report it after changing it. By the way, the most important thing is the name of the plane. I think it's better to call it Purple Girl, how about it?"
After finishing speaking, Andrew couldn't help but laugh.
"Purple girl..." Xue Chen was naturally not that vulgar, but he couldn't think of a suitable name for a while, so he asked Amanda beside him for suggestions on what name to give.
"Let me think about the name." Amanda looked like she was considering it carefully. After thinking for a while, she blinked her bright eyes and said in Chinese, "Your name is Xue Chen. Chen means the morning sun, so why not just call it Xue Chen?"
Chaoyang?"
"Chaoyang?"
At this time, Andrew added: "I think it's better to call it Sunshine. Xue Chen, our friend, is like sunshine. He can always bring warmth, help and happiness to everyone, just like sunshine."
."
"Ahem." Seeing Andrew's arms open with a slightly exaggerated expression, Xue Chen felt a little embarrassed. After thinking about it, he nodded calmly. The name of the plane is Sunshine!
After getting the private jet, they decided to return to Yunzhou Province. Xue Chen originally planned to hire a temporary crew, but Andrew told him that it was not necessary.
"I forgot to tell you that as early as when I was twenty years old, I had already passed the private jet pilot's license, and I can completely fly it."
"Really?" Xue Chen looked at Andrew. Flying a plane is not riding a bicycle.
On the other hand, Amanda testified for Andrew: "This is true. A few months ago, Andrew personally flew a plane from the United States to Germany."
It takes more than ten hours to fly from the United States to China. Andrew alone as a pilot is not enough, so the experienced Andrew finds an assistant, that is Will!
"Will has two jobs on weekdays. One is engaged in some intermediary transactions, not only airplanes, but also high-end vehicles. He occasionally guest-stars as a high-end real estate agent. The other is a trainee driver. He has obtained the certificate of flying pilot.
I haven’t been flying for a long time and I don’t have enough experience. I can only serve as the co-pilot and assist the pilot. With him, we can fly back easily.”
After receiving the news from Andrew, Will expressed his willingness. Not only could he make a lot of money, but with this opportunity, he could also gain some driving experience, especially for high-end private jets like the Bombardier Global 7000. In the past,
I have never come into contact with him, because people who fly private jets of this level will only look for very experienced pilots, not young people like him.
After applying for the air route, several people boarded the return flight on the fourth day after arriving in the United States.
After boarding the plane, Andrew gave Xue Chen a funny salute and said with a smile: "I, the captain, promise that the plane will land safely at its destination."
Will also followed suit.
"It's an honor to be one of the first passengers to ride on your Sunshine." Amanda said with a charming smile on her lips and went to prepare drinks for everyone.
Andrew and Will walked into the cockpit together to prepare for the preparations required before flying.
Xue Chen also went over to take a look at the excitement. When he saw the dense electronic buttons in the cockpit, he thought to himself that flying an airplane does not seem to be an easy task.
Half an hour after boarding the plane, under the control of Andrew and with the assistance of Will, the Sunshine began to taxi on the runway, and the speed became faster and faster. It left the ground very smoothly and rose into the sky.
Sitting on the comfortable seat in the cabin, looking at the distance from the ground getting farther and farther, Xue Chen breathed a sigh of relief and felt very comfortable. This feeling was also very good. He was satisfied. (To be continued)
